Hi I can't really comment in detail about hardware. For most stuff ram is probably better to have than CPU in terms of virtualization and fast storage and/or more or at least one controller card for disks.
I run ESXi 5 and intend to update it to 5.1 which should give me the new web based admin. Not sure if that is part of esxi. I run all my VMs on two networks. A private network interconnect between the machines and a "management" network that allows me to be able to ssh to the boxes that is connected to a network card and my home router which also does the dhcp. My pico cent's worth. Regards On 3 November 2012 01:06, Zack Perry <[email protected]> wrote: > I have finally moved to a bigger place.
