Virtual Server 2005 support 1GB gigabyte network

Hi,
We bought Dell R805 server with Broadcom gigabyte network, installed Win2k3
64 bit OS and top this installed MSVS2005 R2. Guest OS on the MSVS 2005 not
supporting 1 gigabyte network. when we changed to 100 mbps it starts working.

Cheers
Yog

This is also valid for Virtual Server. Because of the virtualization
overhead you should get about 500 to 600 Mbit

Re: Virtual Server 2005 support 1GB gigabyte network

With that type of hardware, why not move to Hyper-V. By default the NIC
speed of the guest is 10gb. It will still only use what is available from
the hardware uplink however.

And the reason they chose 10gb? So these kinds of questions don't get
asked again for a long time.

Re: Virtual Server 2005 support 1GB gigabyte network

That's strange. All of my Hyper-V VMs show a link speed of 0bps in Task
Manager and in Adaptor Properties.
