The DL385 Packaged Cluster with MSA500G2 combines the power and reliability of the ProLiant DL385 server with the availability of the MSA500G2 shared storage. The packaged cluster is ideal for medium sized businesses or remote locations providing high availability for business critical applications. The Packaged Cluster offers the convenience of pre-installed storage and server components in a single package. The innovative shipping box simply opens and allows for quick setup while leaving the servers and storage readily accessible in the Packaged Cluster 8U fixture. Setup guides quickly explain the process of connecting servers, storage, networking and power cables. Once initial setup has been completed, the packaged cluster may be quickly re-packaged for deployment at another site or facility, or simply removed from the 8U fixture and installed in an HP rack with the enclosed rail kits. The Package Cluster offers an excellent return on investment by drastically reducing downtime. |
