Just came across PVE today and almost can't believe what I am seeing!

Looking forward to testing this at work, as we are looking to migrate from VMWARE server to KVM and this looks like it could be just the ticket!

We run a mixture of Windows 2003, 2008 and Ubuntu Server (various editions). Anyone have any issues running these environments in production environment?
 
Win2k3 and Win2k8 should run even better under KVM than Win2k Server does, but my old Win2k Server has been happily running in production under KVM starting with Proxmox VE 0.9 with actual Cold Fusion/MSSQL traffic on it for 6 months now.

Don't know about Ubuntu server, I prefer to run Linux VMs using OpenVZ for good performance and Debian and CentOS lend themselves well to that. Gentoo and slackware and other non-GUI-centric dists would, too, but I've been perfectly happy with Debian. With what little I know about Ubuntu, I'm afraid it might be very X GUI'ish which does not work inside an OpenVZ container. You want a dist that's all about command-line.
 
Ubuntu works quite well as KVM, including virtio disk and network drivers.
