Hi List!
We are currently in the process of analysing and specifying the needs for an upgrade of our JDE Enterprise server. Beside "simply" buying a stronger server we came across a software (www.vmware.com) which allows you to create multiple virtual server sessions on a single very strong server. The idea seems similar to Terminal Server but instead of clients you will have have parallel server sessions running that you can individually and independently manage, shut down and restart ... all on the same hardware!
I have not seen anything here in regards this topic and as we already have some stability issues in our current B7332 NT4/SQL7/WTS environment you can imagine that I'm not very keen on adding complexity in such a crucial area like our Enterprise server.
However we would still be very interested in the following:
- Has sombody thought of using (or uses already?) VMware or a similar "Virtual Server" software with JD Edwards?
- Maybe somebody is not running a "virtual" Enterprise server but their JDE Terminal Servers?
Thank you in advance for any input!
