Subject
[THIN] DC/License/WI in VMware






It seems like it's fairly common on here for running a production data
collector/license server/WI server in VMware.  I have all 3 on the same
Dell 1850 box.  The physical box is a single 3.6ghz Xeon with 1gb of
RAM.
 
The citrix farm itself consists of 9 app servers in a single zone.
Future expansion may put me up to 12 servers over the next 12-18 months.

 
On an average day, about 50 users hit access gateways over the internet
which then hit WI on this server.  There are also 200-250 users who hit
this server directly for PNAgent.  Overall load on the physical box
seems very low.
 
Any reason not to turn this box into a VM in VMware ESX 3.0.1.  The VM
itself will be put on a LUN off my fully redundant NetApp SAN (dual
FAS3020's controllers, HBAs, fiber switches, replication to remote DR
site, all the goodies).
