So, i see a lot of you are running VMs. Why do you exactly need to have 5 VMs running? And how is the performance of virualizing, like in VMware, compared to just installing the OS directly?

Are you asking me?

A true hypervisor (Xen, ESXi etc.) should have practically equal performance to a bare metal install.

Paravirtualisation (Virtuozzo etc.) will be less due to overheads etc. of the host OS and the fact it doesn't get hardware pass through etc.

We run a ~200 server strong VMWare infrastructure at work...

The reason to run many VM's are:
Segregating work - Bad idea for one server to do too much.
Redundancy - Multiple VM's accross multiple hosts incase one goes down.
Load balancing - Multiple VM's doing the same thing and sharing a heavy load (usually Web/SQL)
For home setups - Trying things in different OS's and experimenting.

Many other reasons too...

Xen is has two types - PV and HVM.
PV (paravirtualisation) performs better but the domU knows it's being virtualised.
HVM (hardware virtualisation) does not perform as well, and cannot run on all hardware, but the domU does not know it is in virtualisation. This type of virtualisation supports windows whereas PV doesn't.

Just build my first server.

AMD A8-3870K @ 3.0Ghz w/HD 6550
Corsar H60
Biostar TA75A+
8GB G.Skill DDR3-1600
Antec 302
Antec EA-650

HDDs
1 x Seagate 500GB OS, Will probably replace with small SSD.
2 x Seagate 2TB.
Will keep adding more HDD in the future.

This way i freed up my Gaming PC and dont have to run it 24/7.

Hey guess what guys....



My server sucks. Still in my first semester of a Windows Administration program, and I was able to get this GX280 for free from my dad. Once I got my MSDN AA license, I put server 2008 on it and have just been playing around with it. Eventually I'll add more HDDs to it and actually put it to good use.

- Stability. Virtualised "hardware" will always be the same, no matter what the underlying physical hardware is.
- Stability. Each application stack can run on a known "hardware"/OS combination. Upgrades can be tested in a contained environment, away from a production installation and without having to buy new hardware.
