Hi,
I have a simple question on microsoft cluster on vmware. As I know
windows cluster and exchange cluster (EVS) can be installed in vmware
setup, for test purposes, is it ever used in development site? Will
there be any customers using vmware exchange cluster setup for there
development purpose?
Regards,
Shivaraj

I know someone that installed it into production. Total horror story on what
this company did. Not only were the cluster nodes virtualised, they hosted
multiple VM's on the actual servers that had the cluster node images on
them..

Suffice to say it was total s**t, and I would have fired whoever it was that
designed it and signed it off for production Smile

Dev and Test labs only!!
