Nothing interesting there. Just outlines that Virtual Environments are supported but not recommended for production.

Hi Simon, I know that there is a white paper that MSFT put out a while ago that covers "best practices" for SP development. I will try to find it for you. Cheers, Aaron From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Simon Cropp Sent: Wednesday, 2 April 2008 10:40 AM To: listserver@ozmoss.com Subject: [OzMOSS] The perfect MOSS development environment? All I am curious to find out how people have set-up their development environments for SharePoint. ATM we have several developers. Each developer has their own virtual machine (running locally) containing Win2003, SQLServer, MOSS, VS.Net etc. Each developer is also in charge of the following -ensuring they have the latest source of the project -ensuring their virtual machine has the correct patches and service packs -ensuring that MOSS is setup and configure correctly -ensuring they take snapshots of their VM if they are doing anything that might break it This is a large amount of overhead for every developer. I was wondering how other people manage their environment. Are there better was to do this using a server based virtual environment? Perhaps each day a developer gets a new refreshed image hosted on the server. When changes need to be made (window updates, MOSS config etc) the base image is updated and the developers will get it on the next day. If a developer breaks their image they can simply get a new one. Anyone know of Microsoft links that talk about this stuff? Assume for this discussion that hardware is not an issue and both VMWare and Microsoft are options. What do you see as the perfect dev environment for MOSS? Regards.
