IIRC Exchange is not officially supported on VMWare. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ed Crowley Sent: Tuesday, November 06, 2007 1:35 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Exchange and VMWare
Exchange 2007 is supposed to exhibit dramatically lower disk I/O demand if you load it up with memory. What does your management hope to gain from virtualizing Exchange? The gains of doing so would depend greatly on the size of your organization.

I hope this topic has not been beat to death. We plan on upgrading to Exchange 2007 early next year. One of the ideas from manegemnt is to run exchange 2007 on VMWare and a SAN. My main areas of concern are support (see the links below), and performance (I/O). We have 72 offies, 90+% being 500 users or less. Anyone else running Exchange 2007 on VMWare/SAN. Any issues with support from MS and/or I/O? Any thoughts and suggestions would be much appreciated... http://support.microsoft.com/kb/320220/en-us http://support.microsoft.com/kb/897615/ TIA This message may contain confidential and privileged information.
