Tom, you wrote "personally I would go with serveral lower spec Guests and spread the SQL load amounst the Host Farm.", but our SQL DBA-ers like to consolidate on SQL-level, because this make the management of SQL easier, they said. Is this realy true, I don`t know?
They prefer huge physial MSCS environments with SQL running many instances. But our company policy is to virtualise everything unless .....
I'm looking for arguments not go physical for SQL.
When can we expect VMWare to support more than 4 vCPUs per VM? 2009?
