Spent this week playing with xen and esxi I like xen better for sure.

Installed it on a core i5 8 gigs ram and a 1tb drive exported my vm's from hyper v and imported them perfectly into the test rig.

So last night I backed up hyper v and the vm's again, just in case the new server doesn't work with xen, tonight I plan on installing xen and all the updates and patches, then adding iscsi for the vm's to live on and get it all back up.

I still need to learn how to make the local storage accessible for iso's for installing new vm's etc etc..

New server is as us 1u quad co Xeon 32 gigs ram 2 x 500 gig drives for os and iOS storage. Pci-e ho dual port gigabit Ethernet for iscsi traffic and vm traffic only. On board intel nics will be for management and other stuff..
 
Welcome to the other side of the triangle.
I am using XenServer as well.
I have a pool set up and it's connected to a FreeNAS box (NFS).
That's as far as I went ... concentrating on trying to learn XenApp.

I also play with XenClient ... but have yet to deploy a Synchronizer server.
At some point XenDesktop will be used... but I am still just stuck on XenApp.

Xen is prety good, I have been running it on my R200 at the datacenter for over 12 months now.
