That was Dell's response too and that's what I've been doing. However, 
this is such a major headache for a large group when you are trying to 
do hands on training - it takes terribly long as we have to reboot 
between each configuration setting!  A simulator would help as the 
trainees could play with different configurations before doing it on 
real hardware!

I always have ~5 Dell R720's servers on my bench at anyone time - I was 
trying to get more people in the team involved to ease the load on the 
few (me) who know how to do it!

Anyway, such is life!
