If you're a virtualization lover, there's a tool out that you can't miss:
Virtual
Server Deployment Manager 1.3.0 (VSDM).
The Virtual Server Deployment
Manager Tools provides a streamlined way to manage and deploy Virtual
Machines. Using this tool, regular users (not just administrators) will be able
to create and manage their own machines, without impacting other users'
machines.
The original Virtual Server administration is very powerful but also
very complex to use, expecially for a regular user (not acquainted with
administration processes) and therefore suitable to mistakes. One of the most
critical mistakes this infra-structure provides support to avoid is when a user
inadvertently modifies or damages other user’s machines.
After that, the system started evolving to include other features. It ended
being transformed to a system that deploys Virtual Machines for users based on a
newly developed concept of templates.
A VSDM Template is a Virtual Machine Hard Disk image that is used as
a master image, just like an image that you use for generating a CD to a new
blank media. Once the user creates an image based on the template, they will
have a "clone" (yet not expensive) replica of the original template that he can
change without affecting the original image.
To run this infrastructure, you’ll need just an IIS Web Server, .NET
Framework 1.1 and Virtual Server
installed.
