Tried Vmware and Vmotion in specific to get around this?… using ESX server you can in fact upgrade the “host” OS, migrate all the “guest” VM’s onto another box hot (ie no downtime), boot the ESX host, move the boxes back, repeat on next host etc.
I’m sure microsoft will have a complete virtulisation solution in time, but the above is why the company I work for uses Vmware currently instead of MS Virtual Server- its ability to move a running VM from host to host makes it invaluable. I believe it can also boot Microsoft Virtual Server images now, so migration shouldn’t be an issue if you wanted to try it.
