I've migrated a server to virtualbox for the purpose of experimentation (namely, to resolve upgrade issues going from Ubuntu 8.04 to 10.04). I used MondoArchive to clone the hardware server onto a Virtualbox virtual server. All good so far.

I'm thinking of building future servers within virtual environments - ie: the server built as a solitary virtual machine within its host.

I'm hoping that will make future upgrades, migration and back-up easier. I currently run 3 public servers, none of which are heavily loaded.

What virtualisation solutions would people suggest? and is there any reason this is not a good idea?

thanks..

David.
