Generally, server virtualization solutions work by introducing a thin layer over the physical server. This layer partitions the physical server into separate areas that the virtual servers then run on. Computing resources from the underlying server are viewed as a pool of resources which can then be shared among the virtual machines sitting on top. See similar questions...

Windows Server virtualization provides customers an ideal platform for key virtualization scenarios, such as production server consolidation, business continuity management, software test and development, and development of a dynamic data center. Windows Server virtualization provides key functionality which an ideal virtualization platform should provide - scalability, high performance, reliability, security, flexibility and manageability.

Virtualization creates hardware independence. Simply stated, virtualization is the process of utilizing software to separate the Operating System from the physical hardware (computing, storage and networking hardware). BlueLock describes virtualization as placing a shim between your application(s) and the hardware. This shim makes an application highly dynamic. See similar questions...

The Solaris 8 Migration Assistant is licensed in per CPU socket tiers which would normally be dictated by the number of sockets in the physical system. However, if the Solaris 8 Container is further limited by a virtualization technology on the system, the smaller boundary counts. When using Dynamic System Domains or Dynamic Domains, we count the sockets that are in the Domain where the Solaris 8 Containers are running. See similar questions...

Windows Server virtualization, previously codenamed Viridian, is a hypervisor-based technology that is a part of Windows Server “Longhorn”. It provides a scalable, secure and highly available virtualization platform. It is part of Microsoft’s ongoing effort to provide our customers and partners with the best operating system platform for virtualization. See similar questions...

The RamSan has been tested and works well in most server virtualization (VMWare, Polyserve) and server clustering (Windows, Sun, IBM, OpenVMS, Oracle, etc) environments. The RamSan supports simple and persistent reservations. It is a SCSI-III compatible device. See similar questions...

Memory is allocated explicitly to the dom0 and to each domU. There is no sharing of memory. You can define a minimum and a maxiumum amount of RAM that will be available to each domain. See similar questions...

Customers who invest the .vhd file format – the format used by Virtual Server, as well as a multitude of vendor licensees - will have a clear path forward to Windows Server virtualization. Customers can work with Microsoft’s partners who provide solutions to conveniently migrate from VMware to Windows Server virtualization. See similar questions...

Virtualization is the combination of multiple network storage devices into what appears to be a single storage unit. Storage virtualization is often used in SANs, and makes tasks such as archiving and backup and recovery easier and faster. Storage virtualization is usually implemented via software applications.

With HiPath Wireless Convergence Software,, customers can support multiple separate WLAN networks over the same physical WiFi infrastructure without requiring complex VLAN configurations. Since each mobile user has a user session at the central HiPath Wireless Controller, the HiPath Wireless Controller can place each user in a designated IP subnet and apply specific policies on a user and/or group basis. See similar questions...

Virtualization is a term that is often applied to a wide range of technologies. Essentially, virtualizing a technology decouples the software used in that realm from the hardware. In the area of server virtualization, this means that multiple server environments (Windows, Linux etc) can be housed on a single piece of physical hardware. In this way, two Linux servers and a Windows server running on three separate machines could be virtualized and run on a single blade server box. See similar questions...

The advantages of a properly planned for and implemented virtualization project are great. They include: Server consolidation: The most often talked about benefit of virtualization. If applications running on separate computers do not utilize the computing resources of their computers, they can be consolidated onto a smaller number of servers using virtualization technology.
