Over the past little while, I've had a bug put in my ear about going to 
the above sort of configuration, using HP servers ...

I know that, based on http://people.freebsd.org/~jcagle, I shouldn't have 
a problem with the Blade server side of thing, but so far, I'm unable to 
find a way to tie it in with a SAN backend, since it doesn't look like the 
HP Fiber Channel card for the Blade is supported ...

Now, I find it difficult to believe nobody out there is using 
FreeBSD+Blade+SAN within their infrastructue ... so, if not HP, does 
anyone have any recommendations on what to use for this sort of 
configuration?  The difficult part appears, to me, to be the 'Blade<->SAN' 
Fiber Channel card ... :(

Thanks ...
