We have an 9000/835 SRX and are looking to move the 19"monitor
and 98720A SRX display adapter to another node. We would like to make
this node a diskless client off of the 835.
So this leaves two major questions:
1) What machines can run off a cluster with an 835 as the server?
340? 345? 370? 375? 834? 400 series?
2) What machines can be ordered headless from HP that will handle
an SRX display cards and monitor?
These seem like basic questions, but we would really appreciate
finding out this information. Any suggestions on best paths here
are also appreciated.
(Any HP insiders feel free to chime in.)

I take it that what you mean is what machines can be ordered from HP that can be used diskless and support the SRX display. None are supported diskless that with all the boards you have now for the 835SRX. You can use the SRX controller and display on a series 300 with the correct display card. For the model 330, 350, 360, 370 and 375 use the 98725A display card. The series 400 do not, according to the support matrix, support the SRX at all. The series 400's support the newer graphics subsystems (Color VRX, Personal VRX, and Turbo VRX). > >These seem like basic questions, but we would really appreciate >finding out this information.
