I called support about this because it was something my company was interested in doing (Virtualizing just the master) and was told that it would be supported eventually and though they could not promise a date, it could be as early as the first quarter of next year for ESX and Hypervisor.
I was also told that if you work with your Symantec rep you might be able to get a support exception for a virtual master server. >From the responses on the board I am guessing no one else has called recently >or I got a rouge tech to answer my question. -----Original Message----- From: Curtis Preston [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 23, 2008 11:13 PM To: VERITAS-BU@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] VM Master / Media Servers Because many people use their master server as a media server.
