[sn-cg] SNCG presentation

[Yoder, Alan]

Hi Joel,

   A while back the SNCG declined a speaking 
slot at OGF20 based on a lack of content, 
not wanting to use up community resources for a
talk of little value.  I know it's very late, but 
we have suddenly been blessed with some promising 
content we'd like to share with the community.  Is 
there any chance that we can get a slot reinstated?
Below is an abstract.

Thanks!

Alan

Grid provisioning via cloned golden boot images

In large corporate data centers, grids are 
frequently composed of diskless blade or racked
systems connected via storage and communications
fabric.  Major storage vendors are developing
technology ideally suited to the provisioning of
such grid systems.  We present the business and
use cases for this technology, as well as some
testing data that demonstrates the viability and
robustness of the approach.
