opinions often. I suspect that he has altered an opinion or two based on
my input over the years... but that is pure speculation on my part :)
Quite true, Dan. I agree.
In fact Dan and I probably agree much more often than not. There are
many things we agree upon which simply go unsaid.
Thanks for your PHP comments, Dan. I suspected that this was the case,
but had no personal experience with that so I didn't want to speculate.
Regarding virtualization, we're much closer than it might appear. PVE is
simply a (very nice) web interface which sits atop Qemu/KVM/Openvz.
While a good many things are covered by the web interface (you can
create COW2 (default), Raw, or VMDK disks initially), some things must
still be done manually (such as giving a VM direct access to a disk,
which I do for user data). Also, PVE provides storage pools and
clustering of sorts, which is kinda nice even though I don't typically
use these features. I feel that PVE has allowed me to utilize Qemu/KVM
with less of a training curve, and it continues to help my productivity,
so I continue to use it. Bottom Line is that we're both using
essentially the same technology for virtualization. We're simply using
different tools for managing things.
