KermitJr Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 In preparing for my new "ESXi project" I stumbled upon ProxMox. GrumpyButFun created an image nearly a year ago here: http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=31257.0 Success was reported here: http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=31321.0 1) I'm curious as to more recent developments and the possibility of unRaid 6? 2) Would I need to recompile? 3) What are the reasons for using one or the other? 4) I don't have Xeon processors - just some quad core AMD types. Will that be a major hit on the ESXi side of the house? (it's one of the things that got my attention with ProxMox) A few years back I compiled my on unRaid to run VMServer directly, but it was very touchy and I wasn't too happy with it. I think that the other way around (unRaid as a guest instead of a host) will be a much better option! I plan on running unRaid, ClearOS (I see it's losing popularity to pfSense, so perhaps a shift...), OwnCloud, Windows 7, Mint, Win98se/XP (for some really old games... no internet access on these vms - might try emulation instead). 5) Or should I stick with just running unRAID and Xen / KVM hosting everything? I look forward to the discussion and I thank each of you in advance! Blessings! Kermit Quote Link to comment
