Mainly networking issues and high proc and IO's that choke a virtual server. You need one heck of a virtual environment for a SQL server. Since MOSS makes many more calls than the previous version of SharePoint, SQL utilization goes up. Dave P.

Subject: [OzMOSS] MOSS & V-MotionDate: Wed, 6 Feb 2008 10:03:08 +1100From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: listserver@ozMOSS.com Hi all, We currently have a client who has a virtual SharePoint environment. Virtual Web/Application Server and a virtual SQL Server. We are seeing, when the web/application server is v-motion, a whole stack of database connectivity errors appear in the event log, the SharePoint logs bloat to massive size and owstimer.exe is peaking out. My initial investigation has revealed that while v-motion is happening, network connectivity between the web/application server and the SQL server is lost. Has anyone encountered this before, as this seems like a common setup and if so, is there a work around for this (we have currently set the web/application and SQL server not to v-motion and be static).
