[07:29] <lordievader> Good morning
[16:39] <samba35>  we are planning to buy a hardware for  5-7 server  ,which convert 40 desktop (mostly windows) to virtual machine  as trail we test 1 server 3 desktop on old hardware
[16:40] <samba35> can some one recommand which hardware cpu we should use ,we prefer to build server our own
[16:40] <lopta> Hello samba35
[16:41] <lopta> samba35: Why would you build your own servers rather than buying them from a vendor who provides warranty, support etc?
[16:42] <samba35> warrenty for 3 years too much
[16:43] <samba35> all most all  major componets come with 3 years warrenty
[16:43] <lopta> Sounds like it's not a mission-critical application.
[16:43] <lopta> Oh sorry, you did say it was a trial.
[16:44] <lopta> Make sure you get ECC RAM, server-grade CPUs and perhaps redundant hot-swap power supplies.
[16:44] <lopta> Are all the servers going into one rack?
[16:44] <lopta> ...or split across two?
[16:47] <samba35> school
[16:47] <lopta> ?
[16:47] <samba35> its school project
[16:47] <samba35> 12 grade
[16:48] <samba35> presntly try with pci-passthrought
[16:48] <lopta> What are you passing into the VMs?
[16:48] <lopta> Disks?  GPUs?
[16:49] <samba35> gpu
[16:49] <samba35> 1 host 3 guest work fine
[16:51] <lopta> Interesting.
[16:51] <lopta> Have you looked at ltsp?
[16:52] <samba35> ltsp try very very long time back but that has some limitations
[16:53] <samba35> is ltsp is still kicking ?
[16:54] <lopta> I don't know.  It's years since I looked.
[16:54] <samba35> ok
[16:54] <lopta> The desktops that you plan to virtualise, are they Linux desktops?
