One group is connected to an XSAN using static addressing. Seems to be
working out fine. They are on a closed network with no hooks to AD or
a DHCP server.

perform more reliably with MetaSAN when static IPs are assigned.

Subject: Re: Static or DHCP addressing
The point is echoed here - DHCP with static assignments where applicable.
It also means that there is a centralised location to look up any IP
address issues. With static, it always meant another spreadsheet to dig
out and keep up to date. With Dynamic DNS updates, static leases and
DHCP, the only place you need to look is the DHCP server.
If you're a Windows/AD shop, it's all built in. If you're a *nix
shop... it's all available and much more customizable. Both solution
are perfectly adequate.

Most everything here is DHCP, even many of the servers (with static DHCP
assignments). it just makes sense from an administrative point of view.
dynamic dns with dhcp is bomb-tastic.
we use to outsource IT here, they were using a network range for the corp side
of things that didn't fit into our plan. so when we took IT back in house we
built a new scope, rebooted the switches the machines were connected to, and
we were back up and working within 10 minutes, as opposed to what may of taken
a few hours to manually renumber everything.
makes new deployments a lot easier too, one less thing to tweak/consider.
