    Hi all,

     

    I just purchased dell server with 16GB.  I am going to test 2005 SP1 VMs and SCVMM.  I have one

    quick question:  Do I have to install windows 2003 64 bit on this host server since there is 16GB RAM?

    Can I install w2K3 32 bit on this host server?

     

    Thank you.

    I assume you are going to load Virtual Server R2 on the host and if so follow this link for VS R2 OS requirements.  http://www.microsoft.com/technet/virtualserver/evaluation/sysreqs.mspx 

    Bottomline, you don't have load the 64 bit addition of the Windows 2003 on the host.

     

    If this post answered your question please mark it as such.  Thanks:-)

    Physical Memory limits for Win2k3 are dependent on the SKU you install. Here is a chart for different SKUs and there physical memory limits.
