I need full on segregated machines sometimes though. I've got stuff that only runs in Win98 or XP (old radio programming software).
Might be time to look into Proxmox. There's a fun weekend project for you!
Do you work for a railroad? That sounds too familiar.
Lol no, just old radios. My point is just that my requirements are pretty widely varied.
I'm curious what radio software you use that has these requirements?
Old Motorolas, they really hate users.
If you're running a basic linux install you can use KVM for some VMs. Or use Proxmox for a good ESXi replacement.
I agree with the other poster; you should look into proxmox. I migrated from ESXi to proxmox 7-8 years ago or so, and honestly its been WAY better than ESXi. The migration process was pretty easy too, i was able to bring over the images from ESXi and load them directly into proxmox.
