Currently, the biggest monster we have in production is a database 
server.. for a very, very big database. You're probably in it.  :)

It's part of 2-node HACMP cluster. Each node in the cluster is a 4-way 
SMP RS/6000 box (8-way logical w/ AIX 5.3, yaaay) w/ 12GB RAM, dual 2Gb 
FibreChannel HBAs connected up to not one but two Sharks (Big f'ing 
piles of massively redundant high-speed storage, about 10TB total).. 
Virtualized, multipathed, and fully redundant front to back, top to 
bottom. It's about a $1.1-1.3 million setup, not including support 
agreements and whatnot.

..We feed it small children every morning. Keeps the gears lubricated. :)

Cheers,
Bowie
