Today at VMworld Europe in Cannes, France, VMware announced that within the next 60 days ESX 3i hypervisor will ship embedded in servers from its partners Dell, IBM, HP and Fujitsu-Siemens.
                    
		            
                
                    
                    
                    
                 
            
                
	                
                    
                                        
		            
                    Here's how you can back up files inside running Virtual Server VMs.
                    
		            
                
                    
                    
                    
                 
            
                
	                
                    
                                        
		            
                    One of the great things about virtualization is that it makes it incredibly easy to add a new server -- or 10, or 100 new servers. 
                    
		            
                
                    
                    
                    
                 
            
                
	                
                    
                                        
		            
                    Although 54 percent of large enterprises around the globe rate management of their virtual server environment as a critical or high IT priority, fewer than half (45 percent) think their companies are doing it effectively, according to CA's global survey about virtualized environments released this week.

                    Virtual LANs are a good way to speed up your network by grouping users and 
computers into logical, rather than physical, units. Here’s how they work.
