Xen and Vmware are pretty good. I would not suggest using a Linux distro
and would go with a bare metal (vsphere, xen's alternative)

I would recommend XenServer from Citrix (it's the commercial offering of the
open source project) but they offer a free version.
It has a very easy to use GUI, and also has a command line interface.
We virtualize all our servers as it allows us to do full OS backups fairly
easy.

We have used a number of these, done a ton of benchmarking and here is a
quick summary of my opinions. This could end up being a holy war, but
hope not. Almost all testing was run using iSCSI storage and typically
bonded Gig interfaces and identical hardware/tests performed. We used

In my experience, Citrix XenServer was pretty nice save for one issue: the
client tools did not install on every distribution. They are binary only and
don't compile. The Vmware tools at least compile on Linux, so you can still get

Yeah, it does. its a paid feature however. The free version doesn't do it.
But the free version will live migrate. I run a small asterisk server on

Are you using WDS? I don't know if AirMax has changed this but I know one used

Yes, and we powered it down so that we had a -60. I just wanted to
illustrate that it is not a poor signal issue.

vSphere 5 will only be limited by physical processors, not RAM or number of

One annoying thing about XenServer I forgot to mention is that they don't
support Serial or USB device passthrough to virtual machines.
They do support USB storage devices though.

The reason I ask is because we are using WDS on some M2 PtMP
installations to relay connections to neighbors that are near other
customers. A tech from UBNT told us that WDS is not designed to work
with Airmax and it may be causing some issues with throughput especially
upload. Has anyone else
We run everything with AirMax on and WDS enabled.
If there is an issue with AirMax and WDS this is the first I have heard of it.

Airmax should be used on P2P only for high-distance (~50km or more)
links.
I tried airmax off but the link is almost unusable. Is there any advanced
