Actually, comparing RHEV to VirtualBox is like comparing a neightborhood 7/11 to a large supermarket. VirtualBox is much like VMWare's WS/Server or MS VPC - a local VM tool. RHEV is a full scaled VM management, just like ESX or vSphere. Anyhow,…

@John Mcgrath, my post has no accuracy to what a CIO/CTO would be thiking or be doin with his I.T. department, also this is to be said for the examples i used on the servers and workstations, but with Desktop Virtualization and Servers…

@Dan I do agree somewhat about the support for VT/AMD-V as well as Ram. But Although Redhat's Virtualization or Hypervisor may be a great Product its not widely used, probably because Redhat hasn't really put alot of Marketing around, and…

I wonder why, when mentioning main virtualization players, Red Hat wasn't mentioned. RHEV has all the competitive features and evolving very fast As for the article, there are things you simply cannot virtualise yet. Not to mention the…

I understand the thrust of your argument, but the logic does not work as you suppose. Virtualization is a way to consolidate servers, yes, but your example reduces your physical server presence to 10, that would mean approximately 30 servers to 1…

If I remember correctly there is a service pack associated with it, see if you can install the SP on top of it. This may make it easier to uninstall

Information Technology in a Recession, From Here on Out....

We all Know as I.T. Professional's that we don't make money for the companies that we work for, so if companies could help it, we would be the first to go in this recession with jobs being at an all time low. Think about it, if your company has 5 Helpdesk Professional, 3 Network adminstrators, 2 Network Engineers, 1 I.T. Director, and 1 Cheif Technology officer, Thats about 3.5 million in Salaries for I.T., wow! Now the really costly part of I.T which is the Equipment to make things work, let…See More

So WSS is installed on a Domain Controller or a Server that is a member of the domain. Check the Event Viewer on The Machine and look at the Application Events, to see what is happening with WSS, and also check the Security Events as well.

Sounds like it could be a permissions issue, are you logged in with a service account or a local admin account with permisson to uninstall the product.

Good to know that it's doable with self-study. I was a little put off that I am required to take a VMWare course before I can get the VCP though. Time to start saving...
