<p>That sounds quite exciting. We have two other as-yet-unused
servers, a Cisco UCS that is currently being set up and a Dell
PowerEdge R710. I believe the intention is to use one of those as
an upgrade for Mooneye, which would leave the other one available
for using as another Proxmox host.</p>
<p>I have been told that an odd number of cluster hosts is ideal
(for quorum reasons) and one of those + your donated HP would
bring us up to 5.</p>
<p>Cheers,</p>

<div dir="auto">I have recently acquired a HP Proliant DL360p

there's room and sufficient power for this in the rack,
because I think this could grow our cluster quite well.</div>
