Planning a P2V

Hi,

We're in the process of virtualizing a bunch of our physical servers and I'd like to be sure about this particular one!

Here's the specs:

HP DL360G5 - 2x DualCore 3MHz - 4GB ram - OS is netware 6.5 sp5

It's connected to an HP EVA5000

7 LUN's = 2.6TB (Ideas on migrating that please! I want to go RDM but I think it means backup/restore?)

CPU = Avg/15%, Peak/50%

Mem Used = 3GB

Disk IOPS = Avg/3000, Peak/6500

DiskTransfer rate = Avg/8MB, Peak/21MB

LAN pkts/sec = Avg/23000, Peak/52000

Network Transfer rate = Avg/14MB, Peak/77MB

This server provides home drive to 24000 users and is an application repository for the same amount of users. It sees around Avg/4000ConcurrentUsers

I used the HP sizer and it seems to be saying that a DL360G5 QuadCore and 6GB ram should do it, but I'd like your opinions on that!

Tnx,

Chuck
