Hi, No one is saying that it wouldn't run flawlessly, just pointing out that if you are setuping a new server for virtualized scrcds, I would choose Xen for that purpose.
I think that ESXi is so popular because its easier to install. Community version of Xen needs a lot of more skill to setup than ESXi, but its worth it. - Valtteri Kiviniemi William Warren kirjoitti: > On 8/25/2009 11:07 AM, Claudio Beretta wrote: >> HiI'd like to know your experiences with running srcds in a virtualized >> environment.
