I know I'm going to need some justification to implement this. -----Original Message----- From: exchangelist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:exchangelist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Thompson, Elizabeth Sent: Monday, August 07, 2006 4:21 PM To: exchangelist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [ExchangeList] Re: Exchange on VMWARE http://www.msexchange.org -------------------------------------------------------We are a VMWare shop for Novell, Linux and Windows OS. We didn't go with VM for our Exchange boxes for political reasons, but it does work. I would not recommend moving all your bridgehead servers to the same VM. Try moving a bridgehead and a none network intensive application to the same VM. Be aware that Windows lies about the Nic speed. It will report trnsmission speed as either 10 MB or 1 GB no matter what speed it is transmitting. This is a known VMWare error.

The trick is the loading and the resiliency. I wouldn't want to do this without VMotion and enough VMware physical hosts to bounce guests around should the loading warrant it. I guess the moral of the tale will in the coming years be that if you are going to do VMware then do it properly, don't play at it with a couple of boxes just to save one piece of tin or so.
