Ive looked and been unable to find specs such as minimum system requirements, max ram supported, max ram supported per virtual server, max network cards per server supported etc...

anyone have any information where I can find this information?
 
Processor: Virtual Server virtualizes the physical central processing unit (CPU) on Intel Pentium III, Pentium 4 and Xeon processor systems. While Virtual Server supports multiprocessor systems up to 32-way, guest operating systems only see a single CPU per VM.

Memory: Virtual Server supports up to 64GB RAM on the host system and up to 3.6GB per VM. Large memory support on highly scalable systems is contingent on being enabled by PAE (Physical Addressing Extensions) and AWE (Advanced Windowing Extensions) on the host system.

SCSI Storage: Virtual Server emulates the Adaptec 7870 SCSI controller chipset, with up to 4 virtual SCSI adapters. Each SCSI hard drive can be up to 2 TB and each virtual SCSI adapter can support up to 7 virtual SCSI hard drives for a total direct-connect storage capacity of over 56TB per VM.

Ethernet Controller: Virtual Server emulates the multi-port DEC 21140 10/100TX 100Mbit Ethernet network interface card (NIC) with 1 to 4 network connections, multiplexed on a single virtual PCI slot. An unlimited number of virtual networks are supported.

What are the system requirements for Virtual Server?
Virtual Server runs on any system supporting Windows 2000 Server SP3 and Windows Server 2003.

How many VMs can I run on a single hardware server?
The Virtual Server architecture currently supports up to 64 VMs per server.


Let me know if there is something more specific you need.
 
Is there an actual document on this at all, or is this all internal Microsoft stuff?

I have an excel spreadsheet comparing all the of the VMware stuff with the microsoft stuff, but the microsoft column is mostly blank because I dont know any of the stats.... do you want me to Email you the spreadsheet?
