Explanation

A: benefits of Boot from SAN include: * Rapid disaster recovery - Data, including boot information, can easily be replicated from one SAN at a primary site to another SAN at a remote disaster recovery site. That means that in the event of a failure, servers should be up and running at the remote site very rapidly indeed. * High availability - Spinning hard drives with moving internal components are disasters waiting to happen in terms of reliability, so removing reliance on internal hard drives guarantees higher server availability. The servers still rely on hard drives, but SAN storage arrays are much more robust and reliable, with far more redundancy built in to ensure that servers can boot. D: HP Virtual Connect brings virtualization to the blade server edge. It picks up where virtual machine technology stops. Virtual machine technology can only move workloads across virtual machines on a single server. It becomes a challenge when moving virtual machines from one physical machine to another or between data center locations, because changes to the LAN and SAN environments require manual intervention by network and storage administrators. By pooling and sharing multiple network connections across multiple servers and virtual machines, Virtual Connect extends Data Center capability by allowing physical setup and movement of Virtual Machine workloads between servers and Virtual Machines, transparently from the LAN and SAN
