thanks mate! thats really help on my understanding over FT

[parahumanoid]

Now, I gotta wonder if that totally replaces the whole "MS cluster+TS+TS session directory+roaming profile share" stack. Has anyone used TS under ESX 4? How does that perform if so? I'm considering about 20 concurrent users, each using up to 200MB RAM. This was a vsphere 4 demo, right? Or was it 5?

Still Breast Feeding is appearing top on related videos. I came here to look at VmWare VMotion info. Very Strange !!

@larry217 If one breasty dumpling runs out of milk, we vmotion the baby onto the other breast dumpling.

@Baggatoni : Liked your use case to sell vmware FT:-)

[larry217]

What does Breastfeeding have to do with Fault Tolerance?

[performancens]

@larry217 LOL I thought the same thing!!!

@larry217

Well, it's pretty obvious where the tolerance bit comes from (when they start getting their first teeth), the fault thing still escapes me. Maybe thinking whose fault it was that condoms weren't used at the appropriate moment?

@larry217 i was wondering the samething lol

If vmware overcomes this its good bye for mscs

[krisryali]

Fault Tolerance is still in nascent stage and has limitations currently. For example FT can be enabled only for a vm with one virtual cpu. You can not run your mission critical servers with one cpu. Hope vmware soon will overcome this

Hi. Nice video. But what about the network configuration for the pnics? I have 6 pnics, 2->vms 2->vmotions 2->vm console. Do I need two more pnics or can I combine this with vmotion or vmconsole?
