EMWare ESX Server on pSeries POWER
permalink
Hi

Is anyone running EMWare ESX Server on pSeries POWER. And running Windows Guest operating systems?

Is this posible, what is the advantage of using POWER over Intel servers?

Thanks in advanced..

Umm, I assume it's VMware ESX Server you mean.

And no, its for x86-virtualization.

Yeah, go for it, load it up.
You won't be able to install ANY vm clients though because IT IS A X86 VM NOT A POWER VM.

VMWare is x86 Linux, not Power Linux. You can't even install it. It is PRECOMPILED.

If you don't understand what we mean by that, there are bigger issues we need to discuss.

So you know nothing about power, almost nothing about linux (seemingly nothing other than the word!), obviously very little about VMWare (EMWare....hehehe), don't understand that x86 isn't the only platform on the planet, can't understand English too well either - can’t hold that against you, think it appropriate to post a MS Windows thread on a UNIX / AIX / linux forum, and then get all stroppy because you can't understand the replies to your ridiculous post.
Typical windows user!
Have you tried rebooting - your brain?

yeah you are right, i should have thought about my question before posting on a website with full of wiredo linux with nothing better to do than abuse people. If you get so pissed of about a question. Ignore it. The funny thing about getting flamed on email or forums is that i really doudt you would do it to my face.

Anyways, sorry for the stupid question now that I understand what you mean, it is a stupid question. But wounld it be great to have a POWER version of VMWare.. Anyway. This thread is over.. relax.
