Virtual Server 2005 R2
Microsoft Virtual Server 2005 R2 enables one or more instances of a guest operating system to run on top of a single host operating system—in this case Windows Server 2003 R2 running on an industry-standard x86-based or x64-based server computer. Each guest operating system runs within its own virtual machine, with Virtual Server providing the software infrastructure needed to create and manage the VMs. In turn, each VM provides a set of emulated hardware resources for its guest operating system, making it appear to the guest operating system as if it were running on its own physical server.
Microsoft recommends running Windows Vista Enterprise Centralized Desktop on Virtual Server 2005 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1). In addition to formal support for Windows Vista as a guest operating system, SP1 provides a number of key functional enhancements, including support for:
Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS), which enables snapshot backups of the physical disk volumes that contain VM images, their .vhd files, and Virtual Server configuration files. VSS support minimizes the number of steps involved in archive and restore operations, minimizes downtime, ensures the consistency of the data being archived or restored, and provides support for taking application-consistent snapshots of running VMs.
Offline Virtual Hard Disk (VHD) Mounting, which enables administrators to view and manipulate offline the VHD files that emulate each user’s hard disk. This capability enables administrators to more easily deploy scripts and perform virus scans across one or more VHDs without having to start each virtual machine.
Hardware-assisted virtualization, which provides compatibility with AMD Virtualization (AMD-V) technology and Intel Virtualization Technology (IVT).
