Longhorn:: Hypervisor - Windows Server Virtualization Demo

I just posted the TechReady keynote demo, which I talked about earlier, on soapbox.

In this demo you will see:

  • Windows Server Virtualization running on Server Core managed from another Windows Server Longhorn box
  • 64-bit hosts and 32-bit hosts and a Linux running on the same server core box
  • An 8-core virtual machine
  • System Center Virtual Machine Manager
  • System Center Operations Manager
  • Monitoring the VMs on the Server Core box 
  • Fire off a PowerShell script to hot-add another NIC to a SQL VHD Image

This demo is just awesome. I loved the PowerShell script where Jeff just added another NIC to a VM.

I can barely wait to get me hands on this kind of technology. Now I am already testing the Longhorn server but once I can get my hand onto the Windows Server Virtualization I will definitely move my VM towards this Technology.
