Microsoft Dynamics GP v10 and supported virtualization platforms http://dynamicsgpblogster.blogspot.com/2009/09/microsoft-dynamics-gp-v10-and-supported.html
The
Windows Server Catalog site may just be one of the best kept secrets on the web. According to the
About This Site page, "
[t]he Windows Server Catalog lists thousands of hardware and software items compatible with the Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2003 operating systems. In addition, products may also be compatible with other versions of Microsoft Windows as shown in each product details page."
In response to my friend
Steve Endow's inquiry on Microsoft's support of vitualization environments and Dynamics GP, I went in quest of finding the answer since it is not always apparent where to find this information. The first place of course, the
Systems Requirements page of CustomerSource/PartnerSource. On this page, you can clearly…

For some background information have look at the Virtualization Home Page on Microsoft.com. You can find everything on here from the products in our virtualization suite, case studies, resources and downloads.
On this subject did you know that…

More HyperV Resources http://dynamicsgpland.blogspot.com/2008/12/more-hyperv-resources.html
Today I tried in earnest to migrate a Virtual Server 2005 VHD file to HyperV. Things looked good until I realized the networking in the virtual server did not work. That's when I found this article that offers some steps on preparing a virtual server before you move the VHD to HyperV. Of course, I would recommend making a backup of your VHD and VMC before making these…

Transitioning to HyperV http://dynamicsgpland.blogspot.com/2008/12/transitioning-to-hyperv.html
For the last few years, I have used Virtual Server 2005 to host virtual machines for testing different Dynamics GP environments, and for hosting different development environments. Some clients still use SQL 2000 and GP 8, while others are using SQL 2008 with the latest GP 10 service pack. Maintaining those configurations on a single physical machine typically isn't practical, so Virtual Server offered a great way to easily maintain and backup multiple server configurations. Virtual Server uses the same VHD files as Virtual PC, but I found that it was more convenient to use, easier to manage VMs, and seemed to be faster than Virtual PC.
I've finally built a new Windows 2008 Server, so I'm going to be transitioning my virtual machines over to HyperV, which is the replacement for Virtual Server 2005. Because of the memory requirements of virtual machines, I've installed the 64-bit (x64) version of Server 2008, which allows me to get past the 3GB / 4GB limit of 32-bit windows. The desktop machine I used for Server 2008 only supports up to 8GB of RAM, but I figure that should allow me to pretty comfortably host up to 4 virtual servers (typically using 1.5GB of memory each)--more than I need running at any one…
