Virtual Server 2005 R2 SP1

  • Artikel

Has released!

Virtual Server 2005 R2 SP1 went live yesterday - you can download it for free now.

There are a ton of great things in SP1 including support for hardware assisted virtualisation technology (both AMD and Intel), support for Volume Shadow Copy Service (snapshot backups of running virtual machines), support for offline mounting of VHD files and support for more than 64 virtual machines on a single physical server.

Someone inside Microsoft managed to get their hands on a server with 256GB of memory and span up 508 virtual machines each with 512MB of memory.  Granted it took them the best part of a day to turn then all on and they weren't doing much - but 508 virtual machines on a single box (wow)!
