What Are The Advantages Of Using VMware Server?

    When we created the 1.4.1 release of the NST Virtual Machine, we also wanted to make sure that it would work within the freely available VMware Player™. However, we also want to be sure that one could use the VMware Server™ as it offers some significant benefits over VMware Player™. The following details the advantages of using VMware Server™:
    • It allows one to power on virtual machines at system boot. For example, it is possible to turn on a Windows machine with VMware Server™ installed and have the NST Virtual Machine automatically started (you don't need to touch anything but the power button - logging into Windows is not required).
    • It allows one to start/stop/use virtual machines from remote computers. For example, one can run the vmware-server-console on a Linux system and manage (or access) virtual machines running on a remote Windows box.
  • It allows one to enable dual CPUs on SMP systems (the VMware Player™ only allows one to use a single CPU).
  • It provides a full GUI VMX editor whereas one needs to edit their VMX files in a text editor when using VMware Player™.
