We're running SLES9SP4 (I'd like to get up to 10SP1, but haven't yet)

We had some issues with init scripts starting on 6.0, but with 6.5 it's been addressed.
It's on a Dell 2650 and is using a QLogic 2342 dual channel fiber card.

It's been really solid.

All,

I'm looking for guidance on using Linux in our NetBackup environment.
We are getting ready to update our current infrastructure.  If we go
with Linux we will use the Dell hardware but I need to know from you is
how the systems should be sized, what HBA's do you recommend, what OS,
does it matter if it is RedHat or SLES?  I backup about 300 TB a month
in my production environment running around 1500 jobs per day, with a
lot of it being Oracle backups.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
