SNL and/or PDMW on virtual server?
SNL and/or PDMW on virtual server?
(OP)
Our physical server machines are getting old and we are starting to have some issues with them - my IT guy wants to put them on a virtual server running Windows Server 2008R3. The only KB article I see is from early 2010 (where the answer was NO).
So now 2.5 years later -
is it possible to run the SNL server on a VM?
is it possible to run the PDMW server on a VM?
Is it possible to keep the vault data and toolbox folders on a VM?

You should ask your VAR these questions and for their help in setting this up. It is part of their service to you.

I think we have been running on this virtual server for about 2 years now. We have used SW 2009, 2010 and 2011 with this setup. I have not had any problems of note with the server. My impression is that it is a bit slower to populate the check in / out dialog than when we had a physical server, but not by a significant amount.
