Thnanks for the walk through, keep it up. Are you using one machine for everything? VMM server, library, host? Or did you already have one or more hosts set up to use?

Thanks Tony...it's good to know this is worthwhile!

The SCVMM host is on a dedicated server, and to date I have three hosts being managed. Two of the managed hosts were 'live' before SCVMM and had a number of VM's running various OS versions on them, the final server is running on a laptop I created for this testing. Perhaps I should do a diagram of the set-up?

A diagram would be great. I love your SCVMM series, its really interesting.

Do you know, if for a test setup SCVMM can be installed on the same machine than Virtual Server?

Thanks for your work,
Thomas

Thomas, I'll get a diagram done a.s.a.p. I believe that there is no technical reason why one server couldn't host SCVMM and Virtual Server 2005 - you just need enough memory, disk and CPU power. My SCVMM system has less than the recommended memory but still works ok (it has plenty of disk and CPU - I’ll add the hardware specs to the diagram.

Thanks for the comments...it's great to hear your feedback

SCVMM - Can you help the help?
