The cost of a physical server for network and management functions isn't
that high, surely?  Or is it the single point of failure they're trying
to avoid with not wanting a network node?

What's the strategy for storage on a small cluster like that - I'd be
looking closely at Ceph shared with the compute nodes, but some places
already have a SAN that wants to be used.
