do you have long time experience in running windows Servers 2008+ on

We are using a lot of Vmware stuff and I want to create a testing
envirnment with kvm. What are the known issues, what are your
personal experiences?
We have experience of running Windows Servers from the times of
Proxmox 1.x, currently using Proxmox 2.x and 3.x in different
environments. We have not used VMWare vSphere in production (but we
did migrate a VMWare vSphere infraestructure to Proxmox 3.x). We are
running Windows 2003, Windows 2008 32bit, Windows 2008R2 32bit,
Windows 2012 64 bit.
We're quite happy with the results, it's very important to use virtio
drivers for performance. You may have some issues shutting down
windows boxes from Proxmox GUI, there are some instructions for this
to work on PVE wiki.
What virtio drivers do you use for Windows 2003? The latest seem to
not work for Windows < 2008 and result in blue-screen immediately.
Now that you say this, I recall having this problem on a recent P2V.
We have windows 2003 systems using block driver version 6.0.0.10 with
date 20/09/2010 since quite a long time, and also version 61.63.103.2200
with date 13/02/2012 since about 20 months. This last one should be from
virtio-win-0.1-22.iso
Hope this helps
Eneko
