Are they still around??? Had a chance to play with one several years ago, 2007 I believe. Very nice system IMHO, especially if you pulled out a working blade. Fault tolerance was phenomonil.

Subject: EGenera for Oracle -- particular for DWHs    

I remember that eGenera was "somewhat popular" in 2007/2008. It was then launched as an Oracle RAC blade-farm.  

Does anyone have experience implementing recent eGenera solutions, particular for I/O intensive DataWarehouses ?

I believe that there was a limit of 2 HBA ports on a 24-blade frame (effectively allowing, say, 14-16 blades to be usable) ?
