ok guys thank you very much, i will install xenserver as i do previously with my computer (i need only to enable VT on CPU)
And then install Xen Orchestra too. Best way to run XenServer! If you are just doing this for a test or a small transition, get the appliance for free. Limited, but super easy to get started.
i think i'm OK with XenCenter
thanks ScottWhy? We even how a super simple how to built here on how to get Xen Orchestra up and running
-
is that web application offer more features ?? because till now i find all i want in xencenter
-
which installer i have to install on my VM to take benefit of PV, because i see so many installer here, ??
-
@IT-ADMIN installwizard.msi
-
thank you , it works like a charm
now i just successfully virtualize my win7 machine with VMware vCenter Converter Standalone Client, then i import the VMDK into XenServer, then i installed xenserver tool, everything is OK but my question here is why i didn't get activation message from windows, as far as i'm concerned when the platform change from P to V, the system ask you to activate it again, !! -

Yes, web, and far, far more features than XenCenter.

i thank you very much Dear Scott for convincing me to use xenserver, really it is a very powerfull hypervisor, now i'm learning how to built High Availability Cluster using 2 Dell poweredge, then i will learn how to backup my VMs to a NAS,
it looks like a very good project, woooow i'm very happyi will update you guys throughout my project stages,
-
Xen Orchestra has a built in backup system, too.

Are you saying it's a pirated version of Windows?
Yes, he's discussed this in several threads. He is not in the US, it is legal to pirate where he is and the company he works for things IT is not something that businesses use.

Oh ok.

So, the pirated version of windows doesn't activate themselves against microsoft when migration from P to V platform ???
-
this is what i can see from my experiment with win7, i try this before virtualizing my physical servers to make sure i will not have licences issue
it looks like i will not have these issue with my 2 windows servers 2008 R2
