Publisher Summary
This chapter discusses the Microsoft virtualization tool Virtual Server 2005 R2. Microsoft Virtual Server 2005 R2 is a very versatile application. Virtualization is the concept of taking a single operating system and, instead of installing in on its own dedicated physical hardware, installing it on virtual hardware that is being presented by Microsoft Virtual Server 2005 R2 running on a physical server. The basic idea of virtualization is taking a single physical machine and running multiple virtual machines on top of that hardware. Virtualization works by taking the physical components of a machine and presenting virtual hardware instead. Microsoft Virtual Server 2005 R2 has multiple practical applications in today's IT environments. Virtual Server can meet the requirements to implement a test, production, and disaster recovery site. The main reason for implementing Virtual Server 2005 R2 may be to reduce physical servers and reduce cost. The other advantages, such as OS portability and recoverability, are making it an increasingly popular choice for today's infrastructure needs.
