Apple Server running in a VM

Posted by greg on Nov 21, 2008 in Virtulization

Well, today I downloaded and installed Parallels 4.0. What a major improvement!

At home, I run a Mac Mini with a couple of TB’s hanging off of it with OS X 10.5 Leopard Server as the OS. I actually use a lot of the features of 10.5 Server, such as the VPN, Open Directory, etc.

Since the release of Parallels 4.0 I can now create a a virtual machine of 10.5 server, which I did. This freed up the Mini and now I have the image running on my MacPro. I like this because now I have the capability of any Virtual Machine, such as snapshots, migrating, upgrades, etc.
