We're going to test it as a DR tool. The ability to set 2 identical servers, leave one powered down, and if the live one dies you start up the other virtual server. Should be interesting to see if it works.

I am actually thinking about using VMWare as an additional abstraction layer.

For example if my server blows up, I can restore system state and reinstall Exchange with the /disasterrecovery switch ONLY IF the hardware is exactly the same. Otherwise system state restore will end up with a BSOD.

With VMWare I think I would be able to do a system state restore to any hardware because VMWAre would look the same anywhere.

Am I thinking straight?

It's neat... accessing Titanium on the same server with Outlook11
running in VMWare.

Microsoft deploys some labs in this manner.

Hey all. Has anyone tinkered with Exchange on VMWare?
