Just to clarify - what likely expired was ESXi. You need to provide that with a license, but they give you free serial numbers for that.
If you've deployed vCenter, then you would need a non-free...
No, that's not true. I sell and design VMware at my job. You probably bought a couple sockets of vSphere, which would including licensing for additional features and a vCenter Agent.
vSphere...
What did you buy for $900? The vSphere Client is free. ESXi is free as well.
ChrisKhoo - thank you very much for posting this! I've been pulling out my hair for three days trying to figure this problem out on Fedora 12. Your solution works for me too.
Thanks!
:-)
Citrix is quite far from being free.
The least expensive you could get with Windows TS desktops (and be compliant and legal) is the base Windows Server, CALs per user, and RDS per user....
If you want to present linux desktop(s), then VNC is one easy choice. TightVNC, for example, can do this:

FreeNX is another good...
They are probably presenting you a desktop using Citrix XenApp (aka Presentation Server).
So you would need to install a Citrix client on your ubuntu computer:...
Major server brands also have out of band management cards. With HP, it's called iLO, and with IBM it's called RSA.
In both cases, you attach a network cable to the management card, which...
I have not personally done this... and I've only used KVM on Fedora and CentOS... BUT, I can point you to page 187 here:...
Hi there. Can you elaborate on what exactly you mean by "clustering" in this setup? This is most certainly not VMware clustering.
I'd frankly run, not walk, away from Server 2.X. ESXi is vastly...
Also - good info here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto
You're seeing the two disks because these RAID controllers use what most people call "fakeraid" to present the RAID volumes to the OS. Fakeraid relies on software to perform the RAID operations......
I doubt anyone minds a bump after one year. :-)

VMware Server 2 is a bad choice. Hyper-V is better, but that doesn't mean it's the BEST choice. Consider these:
1. VMware ESXi
2. Citrix XenServer
3. And then Hyper-V...
I believe the point of the OP's post is to determine where and how the resources will be managed. Guests may behave the same, but hypervisors do not, which is why he's asking for feedback on where to...
Hi there,
I missed the fact that you're using whiteboxes... one possible problem would be compatibility with ESXi. Unlike Linux or Windows, there is basically nothing you can do to resolve...
Absolutely option #2. VMware Server is quite slow, and offers particularly poor i/o performance. ESXi is a better choice. You can simply export the storage using NFS to the ESXi host.
I would stay...
Please post:

cat /etc/resolv.conf
Does your server have a management card? With HP, it's called iLO. With IBM, it's called RSA.
You would have to address the card, then login to its web interface, and it will tell you what the...
Sounds like you're looking for VirtualBox seamless mode. That will present individual apps from the guest OS, so it can comingle with your host desktop.
This is an old version Howto, but it will...
Just use whatever is stable and familiar for you; it sounds like that would be Kubuntu.
Then install Sun Virtualbox and run every distro you want as a VM.
Umm... not sure where you went to school, but my school required a B- or higher in every core requirement class (and C or higher in every elective) in order to graduate.
And very few places (here...
Yep. Experience is the best, but a degree from a respected university is also very good. Certifications are mostly of low value.
I have a couple dozen certs, and I think RHCE is the only one that...
Yes, the VI Client or vSphere client is Win32 only, and is required to control ESXi. I know a linux and OS X vSphere Client is in the works, but I've not even seen the beta bits yet, so I have no...
