Re: ProLiant ML350 G4P and VMWare
Johan, thanks for the links. I noticed that in my BIOS, I'm missing the Intel(R) Virtualization Technology option in the BIOS. Per the specs of the E7520 that I read, it supports virtualization. So I don't get what I'm doing wrong. I actually used the Intel auto-product finder to specify what I have and then i used Speccy to verify along with CPUID. All same Intel E7520.
I could try virtual box, but prefer VMWare and will still try VMWare 9 as a test. Thoughts?

Re: ProLiant ML350 G4P and VMWare
Not sure where the limitation lies if the CPU has intel virtualization so, BIOS or some other chipset? Anyway seems like the hardware virtualization is a no-go, perhaps para-virtualization works at least.
You could try VMWare in Linux, I don't know which of VMWare's product you're using but I'm guessing VMWare Workstation - and that can be installed in Ubuntu too.
Perhaps a you already now but 2008 looks like it's not supported on the ML350 G4p: http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/windows/index.html

Re: ProLiant ML350 G4P and VMWare
Hey Johan. Thanks for the information. I will downgrade to Win 2008 to see if it resolves some of the quirky issues I've been seeing.
Thanks.

Re: ProLiant ML350 G4P and VMWare
Even thought the Chipset/CPU combination may support Intel VT-D, I don't think it was enabled in the system ROM. According to the QuickSpecs for that model, this is stated about the CPU
"Processors include support for Hyper-Threading and Extended Memory 64 Technology (EM64T)"

Re: ProLiant ML350 G4P and VMWare
Thanks, Jimmy. I have both enabled but I found an article that said to disable the Hyper-Threading to get it to work. I will that a try. Seems weird but I had to disable the RAID in the BIOS to get the MS installer to see the disk drives.

Re: ProLiant ML350 G4P and VMWare
Per page 6 of the server documentation (://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/12199_div/12199_div.pdf), the server may require the Virtual Machine Management Pack to assist with virtualization.
I used this link to download the 3.10 version of the ProLiant Essentials disk that has the above mentioned item:
https://h20392.www2.hp.com/portal/swdepot/displayProductInfo.do?productNumber=ISDVD#3.10
Also, because I was using VMWare 10, I will also try the ESX version from HP located here:
http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/software/vmware/esxi-image.html
If anyone is familiar with these or are able to test these before me let me know.
Thanks.
