[Mridul Dutta]

Thnaks a lot for your support and comments.


I m working now in a large setup . Here in my data centre there are 3 super
dom , 2 SAN switches , 25 L class server , SAP and oracle are running in
Application server . But the main problem is I m new in this OS . So i m
learning from Rehman HP guide. I think it is very important to work with
large environment with large h/w setup.

Regards

MRIDUL
