Yes it does, but it's not such a great idea. Each time the disk grows, the esx server needs to place a lock on the vmfs volume, making it inaccessible during the time that the disk is allocated. Having said that, you can create 'thin' disks using vmkfstools (service console). It goes something...

Pookies is right, time sync can be an issue. But disabling W32time on a DC disables all clients getting their time from the domain controller. Like Poekies said, sync the time of the DC using the VMware tools. But make following registry change...

Make sure that you dedicate enough memory to the service console. You can change the setting in Config/memory. The default value is 272MB, but VMware has already declared that this is way too little. After you've made the change, you'll have to reboot the ESX in order for the changes to take...

This is not (yet) possible in ESX. If you want to backup your VM's, VCB is the preferred way, an disk agent is the second option.

The most important thing is that you never change your source system. Otherwise you will not have anything to fall back to. For virtualizing dyn disks, you will need some third party imaging soft. I know Acronis is capable of doing this. Restore it to a VM you created manually. To inject the...

Have a look at http://www.ontrack.com/powercontrols/ Grtz, Rein.

Authenticated users is not a real group. You can compare it with the everyone group. Authenticated users was introduced with NT4 SP4 I believe to stickten the everyone group a little bit. It can be compared with the everyone group, but you need be authenticated by a domain controller of the...

I agree

Could be that the problem lays with exchange. A small corruption in your mail store can make BE give some error messages.

What disks are you trying to create?

No, with SQL server (msde is the light version of it), you're able to install multiple instances of sql. Therefore I do not expect you'll have much problems. the instance of BE is normally <servername>\BCKUPEXEC.

Now actually, it will even speed it up. HW compression means that the compression will be done by the backup device. Hardware also most of times implicates faster than software.

Best to turn hardware compression on in your backup program. If it is turned off, this behaviour is perfectly natural.

Normally the agents should match the version of the server. When you buy agent licenses version 10, plus a support pack, then you can request to convert the license into version 9.1.

Is it a 20/40 or 40/80 tape?

Exchange 5.5 uses X400 to communicate with other exchange servers by default. Exchange 2000 uses smtp to communicate. Could it be smtp is blocked somewhere?

Using exchange system mgr, you should be able to correct the permissions.

Yes, no problem to defrag on another server. When dismounting the store, it will also apply all the transaction log files to it. After the defrag, you may delete the original database. However, it is perhaps best that you keep a copy of the original database and transaction logs somewhere...

Check that the recipient update services connect to another domain controller. Even if you forget this, there is no immediate problem.

Install the exchange system mgr first, and then try to remove the server. If that doesn't work, you can remove the server manually from AD by using ADSI (mmc-plugin, windows supp tools). When using ADSI, be careful. The entries can be found in the configuration container.
