Hi Colin,
Could I recommend you take a peak at Oracle VM - they have just released
version 3.0.
It's free to download (full enterprise stack) - if you want updates you'll need
to pay around £400 per year for a dual socket server. If you have servers with
more than two sockets it's double. Might sound expensive but you can load 2TB
(yes Terrabytes) of RAM into a OVM host and still not pay any more than the
base £800 per year price there are no extras.
It's good for Linux and Windows, and runs XEN 4.0.
Oracle acquired Virtual Iron a few years ago, so much of the VI 'goodness' has
finally ended up in OVM 3.0.
Cheers,
Jeff
