What are you looking to support on this VM, and what have been your problems with snapshots?
I happen to love HyperV in 2008 R2. I like VMWare, and have used it pretty extensively, but if the requirement is to support a small environment and that doesn't require a whole lot of automatic high-availability features, then I prefer HyperV. I haven't tried Xen, yet, so I can't speak to it as an option, although I have heard pretty good things about it. -ASB: http://XeeSM.com/AndrewBaker On Thu, Jul 15, 2010 at 3:49 AM, Oliver Marshall < oliver.marsh...@g2support.com> wrote: > Hi, > > > > We are looking at a new VM host here and I have to decide if we go for > HyperV (our current option), VMWare (the cheaper version whatever that is) > or Xen. > > > > Any comments?
