We have a Solbourne Server Series 5E/700 for evaluation. Our current
configuration consists of:

        . Two 40 Mhz Sparc CPU boards
        . 128 MBytes RAM
        . One Multi Channel IO Board
        . Dual SCSI VME Board
        . 500 MByte Internal Disk
        . 13 1GByte External SCSI disks
        . One 1/4" Tape Drive
        . One CDROM Drive
        . One 8mm Drive

We are running the Solbourne OS/MP 4.1A.1. We experience consistent system
crashes when exercising the system, for example when running the 'fstest'
command (read/write files with various parameters on NFS mounted disks)
on one of the client machines in the same subnet. Disabling eNFS version
2.0 does not eliminate the problem.

Questions:

        1. Has anyone out there a similar configuration and is happy with
           his/her system?
        2. Can a Solbourne Server Series 5E/700 handle that many SCSI devices?
        3. Has anyone out there a similar configuration (Sparc, mid-range)
           from another manufacturer and is happy?

I appreciate any advice and comments via email and will post SUMMARY of responses.
