Virtualisation Project - Part 1

After at least 6 months of procrastinating, one of the companies I work for has stumped up some money for some new hardware. Presently they have the most ramshackle IT setup that I have ever had the misfortune of witnessing and so, fortunately for me, it will be impossible not to improve upon it.

The title is somewhat misleading in that they already run virtual machines. However, their hosts are scattered across various versions of ESXi, ESX and even GSX (whatever that is) and cannot be centrally managed. Their backups criss-cross the network like the tangled web of a retarded spider. After being mismanaged for years, their Citrix and group policy is beyond comprehension.

So from tomorrow, I will be recording the interesting parts of this project.
