Hi All,
Long story short. The Win2K Active Directory box blew up in
spectacular fashion today and the apocalypse I've been prophesying
for over a year has come to pass. Lo, there is much weeping and
gnashing of teeth going on. So the saviour (capex) has been summoned
and behold the redeemer is near - in the form of a HP DL360-G5 with
big RAM, fast dual-core CPUs and redundancy!! All hail capex!!
So it got me thinking. Could I achieve a panacea (Zen) by
virtualizing the Win2K server and at the same time consolidating so
other low-spec servers? So my question to the group is simply this;
has anyone had success running any of the following under Xen as
guest operating systems (preferably in a business/enterprise setting)?
1. Win2K Advanced Server
2. Win2K3 Server (in near future to replace #1)
3. Linux (duh - I know this works)
4. FreeBSD (just because...ok)
The planned host OS is Novell SLES 10 (we are a Novell
distributor...so um, it's kinda "politically" motivated).
Insights??
Cheers,
James
