For me there's no difference for charging for a virtual or physical....if they have 2 physicals that host 4 virtuals total, that's a six server fee.
------------------------ Let me rephrase Client: I have 5 servers that I want on mtc which includes monitoring/ensuring backups complete/and patching, how many labor hours? Anything else, (upgrades, new application install, hardware replacement etc..) is billed on per hour basis. Response to client: The server mtc is X hours per month per server. solve for X, and does X make a difference whether it physical or virtual? That is what I'm trying to gauge
