About VMware Server
VMware Server provides an entryway for those who want to try VMware server virtualization, but who might not want to jump in to purchasing ESX. It's a hosted virtualization platform, which means it runs on top of a Linux or Windows OS as opposed to bare-metal virtualization, which installs on top of the hardware.
In this section, you'll find expert tips that explain how to install VMware Server on x64 Linux, what the pros and cons are of upgrading from VMware Server to VMware ESX, how to backup virtual machines with VMware Server and the Volume Snapshot Service and more.
