Microsoft says it delivered a “feature complete” release candidate of Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V today.
The RC has been qualified for guest OSes including Windows Server 2003 SP2, SUSE Enterprise Linux Server 10 SP1; Windows Vista SP1, and Windows XP SP3.
Host server Oses now include 64-bit versions of Windows Server 2008 standard, enterprise and data center editions in some languages (English, German).
Microsoft is banking big that its virtualization game plan will take share from market leader VMware and also bring new users into the virtualization fold.
Microsoft says it’s on track to deliver Hyper-V by August.
