Hi, We did install the System center Essential on one of our servers I have 2 question regarding the virtualization of a phsycal server in a domain. 1.Can we vitualize an windeows 2000 server? 2. we want to use the online option of SCE to virtualize our servers, some of these servers are Database servers (SQL server) and alot of data changes in a day, so my question is, what heppend to data that changes during the process of the virtualization? what I mean is when we virtualize an server it take like 1hour and 45 min, in this time I am sure that some data changes in some of the databses so what this means? does we miss the data that is changed in that 1 hour and 45 min? or the virtualize server is exactly the same as the Physical one with all data intect even the change data?Shahin

This forum is for ConfigMgr related issues only. You should post again to a SCE related one. Thanks.Torsten Meringer | http://www.mssccmfaq.de
