Questions:

2) Is there a GPL solution that fit's this scenario? Even if it's not a bare
metal hypervisor and needs an O/S. Remember it has to virtuaize both Server
2003 and CentOS
KVM, Sheepdog[0], and libvirt. Sheepdog eliminates the need for a SAN
or NAS, it uses the local storage on the machines to host the images.
You can scale it horizontally pretty easily by adding more machines
with big disks.

4) What kind of speed/bandwidth should we be looking at for the off-site
replication.
Wholly depends on how much IO you're doing. Is this being hosted out
of a data center? If not, it'll probably cost more more than you can
reasonably afford

Understood - I knew it was a stupid question when I asked that one. Without going through a sizing exercise I figure it's probably going to be left until later when we can look at some kind of async replication.
