You have to modify the settings in the Hyper-V VM, in order to create and install a VM inside of Hyper-V. I installed Win Server 2008 Standard and added the Hyper-V role. In the image below you can see that I'm running Hyper-V and inside I'm running W7 system. And now you can also test other hypervisors… Like Hyper-V.

How to run Microsoft Hyper-V with nested VMs inside of VMware Workstation 8.Īs you probably know, it's possible to virtualize ESXi 4/5 within VMware Workstation and run 3 levels deep “inception” infrastructure. The 120 gigs space for an SSD is really not enough, so If you're planning setup like this, consider 256 Gigs as a smallest choice (yes I know, the SSD's are still expensive).Īnd now, some more geeky stuff…. That's the setup I'm having at the moment. The laptop's classic 5400 rpm SATA drive is now used through an external enclosure through an USB port for storage of ISOs and source files. Everything else was then separated in several VMs laying on the SSD.īut few day's back the external enclosure's eSATA port broke down, so my only solution to keep the high speed for my running VMs, was to put this 128 gigs SSD inside of my laptop, clone existing physical installation W7 system to the SSD (by using Acronis). So the physical system boot up was pretty quick.

This setup was quite neat, since I had on my laptop just a clean Windows 7 system and VMware Workstation running. Those VMs were located on on 128gigs SSD which was fit inside of an external enclosure and which had eSATA port. I've been using setup like that to carry around this VM together with other VMs I use to demo at the client's sites or for DR purposes. This is not new, the P2V was done months ago. But, if I'm elsewhere, or doing something else, this setup could be quite heavy loaded, since there is quite a few applications installed in this system. The VM is integrated in Active Directory, I'm syncing my business files, got all the printers installed in that VM etc….I basically need this environment while at my office. What I did actually that I virtualized my laptop with all business applications I use at where I work. The VMware Workstation is running on my company's laptop. Update: you might want to check my VMware Workstation 9 new features article. I already wrote about the new features in detail in this article: VMware Workstation 8 – new features detailed. Since then I haven't stopped to play with the software.
