I'm interested in noodling around with server virtualization. I downloaded VMware-VMvisor-Installer-4.1.0-260247.x86_64 and started checking the requirements. I'm confused. The VMWare hardware compatibility guide only shows server-class machines. You're running on an Optiplex. What am I missing?

It's got 2x 1tb disks, 8gb RAM & a quadcore cpu. So it doesnt even need to be anything special. I'm running openfiler as a vm on it with no issues, great for playing about and discovering different things. T On 23 Sep 2010 19:28, "John Aldrich" <[email protected]> wrote: Thanks.
