Hi, I have a simple question on microsoft cluster on vmware. As I know windows cluster and exchange cluster (EVS) can be installed in vmware setup, for test purposes, is it ever used in development site? Will there be any customers using vmware exchange cluster setup for there development purpose? Regards, Shivaraj
Test - yes. Development - yes. Production - don't know of anyone doing that myself... > I have a simple question on microsoft cluster on vmware.

I know someone that installed it into production. Total horror story on what this company did. Not only were the cluster nodes virtualised, they hosted multiple VM's on the actual servers that had the cluster node images on them.. Suffice to say it was total s**t, and I would have fired whoever it was that designed it and signed it off for production :-) Dev and Test labs only!! Oliver
so... does this means its a "BIG NO" for Cluster on VM Server? but, every one is moving into VM now days ...

Even I came to know from some other sources that no production environment will have exchange on vmware. Cheers, Shivaraj
