We have customers here in the UK that have deployed E2K7 totally on virtual servers (VMware). Other (larger) customers have deployed Hub/CAS on virtual, mailbox on physical, etc. All good news as far as I'm aware (as long as it's designed correctly of course!) -Original Message- From: D

I'm running Exchange 2007 virtualized with Hyper-V for around 500 mailboxes and 80-GB stores, and it works fine. I hate to make assumptions, but I'm thinking it might be safe to assume that it would perform similarly with VMWare. John Hornbuckle MIS Department Taylor County School District 31

We did for testing, and still do run some servers as virtual for CAS and Edge Transport servers. It's been pretty reliable. Mailbox servers didn't seem to scale well in a virtural environment. -Original Message- From: Dave Hornby [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 20, 200
