Abstract

Considering how much data centers have grown with the proliferation of Wintel servers over recent years, it is important to note that rack space and floor space can be more efficiently taken up with the use of the BladeCenter HS20 servers. Attractive cost savings are also possible where a large number of rack installed servers are required, since the equivalent number of 1U servers would be much more expensive.

This IBM Redpaper describes how to set up and configure Microsoft Exchange 2000 on the BladeCenter and provides some pointers on what applications to use to manage the installation. It also describes the functionality of the BladeCenter in this type of environment.
