Depending on your configuration, your application, it's load, yes, it is
possible.
I have had servers running as virtuals, with 40-50 users per virtual.

Hi all,
I see all these messages going back and forth about virtualization, but not
much information on how Citrix/TS behaves in a virtualized environment.
A tech./sales person from Dell came yesterday and told me that I could probably
replace 7 of my PowerEdge 2850 with one beefed up PowerEdge R900 and virtualize
the 7 Citrix servers. I find that kind of hard to believe.
Each of my 2850's can handle about 30 to 40 users concurrently. I just don't
think that an R900 could handle 200 + users with virtual Citrix servers.
Is anyone out there using VMWare to virtualize Citrix servers in a production
environment?
What kind of hardware?
How many virtual servers per physical server?
How many users?
I would greatly appreciate your advice as I am new to VMWare.
