We buy all our hardware through dell so you might be able to find better prices than those listed here, but any of the APC Switched PDUs will work for you. Of course you need to make sure they fit into your data center's power grid as appropriate, but you can pickup a 24 port PDU for between $600 and $700 depending on your power setup. http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/category.aspx?c=us&category_id=6250&cs=555&l=en&s=biz&nf=18037~0~130093&~ck=anav We have dual power supples in all our servers so we use two ports per server since the rack is on two different circuits, but if you used the Y cable and weren't worried about that level of redundancy then 24 ports would go a long way. -- Linux-cluster mailing list Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
