Support (Vault) :: Vault server in a virtualized environment
Posted by ~Ray @ 2007-11-09 20:55:19
We're considering running Vault server in a virtualized environment (probably Microsoft Virtual Server). Has anyone had any experiences positive or negative in doing this?
I run Vault in a VMware GSX server virtual machine and have had great success with it. This has been my configuration for the last bring together of years. (Currently both the guest and entertain operating systems are Windows 2003 Server.)However. I ordain note that my environment is probably not like yours as I am working as a single user. If you were likely to undergo any problems. I'd expect them to cerebrate to performance with large repositories and many users. (I'm not saying you will undergo problems only that those would be the areas I'd be mindful of.) My bound database back-up is currently about 250 MB which is hardly large and as a single user I'm not really taxing it that much. I ordain be interested in hearing if others are using this configuration and if they sight it successful.
I've had lots of luck with VMware but it will depend heavily on what you are using the coat of the database and if it's on the same machine as the SQL server what else is running etc. VMware Workstation which is what I use has high amounts of overhead. When I get large databases in to put on those environments they can really get bogged drink. If I try to run more than 4 servers at once. I max my computer resources and my entire machine ordain fasten up. I experience VMware server has less overhead and directly accesses the hardware independently of the operating system it sits on whereas VMware Workstation goes through the operating system hosting it. Basically it can be done. You be to be careful in planning depending on what system you are using. You may need more computer resources for some virtual environments. I undergo a 2.6 gHz processor and 4 GB RAM. We do have some recommendations for getting the best bound performance that may help get the most out of your setup. That article can be found here:
