Hi

I am a third year university student, doing a project on "The use of virtualisation to consolidate and migrate servers". I would really appreciate it if you could spare some time do a quick survey. shown below is link to the survey.

Completed.

**muppet** · 13th January 2010, 09:38 PM

Done it.

**box_l** · 13th January 2010, 10:03 PM

me too

**strawberry** · 13th January 2010, 10:05 PM

done..

**leco** · 13th January 2010, 10:11 PM

Done. Do you want feedback on the survey or just the data?

**Kamran7860** · 13th January 2010, 10:15 PM

Feedback would be nice as well. thanks

Completed.

Feedback: I wasn't sure if the "How many virtual servers do you have deployed at the moment?" question was for number of physical servers used for virtualisation, or number of virtual servers spread across hosts. In my case the answer is the same regardless, but just thought it could be more clear

Done!. Ditto with the comment above.

Point taken, ill fix that. thanks

Sent you a PM with my feedback.

Done. If you haven't already, look in the Server Room over at Ars for "in the trenches" type info:

The Server Room - Forum Powered by Social Strata

Specifically this thread: Biggest mistake you (or someone else) has made in a virtualization deployment? - Topic Powered by Social Strata

You missed out common problems/decisions with virtualisation projects in your survey (vm-sprawl: depts who'd normally give "x" out of their budgets for a physical server thinking virtual servers are "free", backend storage decisions, vendors not supporting their products in virtual environments)

**SYNACK** · 14th January 2010, 03:27 AM
