I've run in the same physical space issue with my company servers and didn't think twice to use virtualization. But, as pointed by others, you could easily accommodate all your services into one openbsd server with chroot's. But I disagree when they compare chroot directly with a vm hypervisor, because there are many things it can do, that a chroot can't. I've been using linux with qemu/kvm. Lots of pci devices passthrough's that work like a charm (there are potential security issues, worth noting). I believe that the other obvious choice is Xen. I would not go with virtualbox. And Vmware is expensive. Qemu/kvm tights nicely into the system so it's my choice. You should make your own choice. Cheers, -- Giancarlo Razzolini GPG: 4096R/77B981BC
