Following the Exchange Server and SQL Server posts, I thought I’d look at Lync Server 2010 next.\u00a0 What’s the story with it and Dynamic Memory.\u00a0 After much Googling, and eventually Binging, I found a document<\/a> on Microsoft’s site called Server Virtualization in Microsoft Lync Server 2010.\u00a0 There is one brief section on Dynamic Memory:<\/p>\n

“Dynamic memory has not been validated with Lync Server 2010 workloads, and specific guidance cannot be provided”.<\/em><\/p>\n

In other words, they haven’t tested it.\u00a0 That’s the latest I could find.\u00a0 I’m asking some contacts in MS to see if they can find anything that might have been published since by the Lync group.\u00a0 Untested\u00a0can be interpreted as\u00a0unsupported.\u00a0 But the Lync group didn’t care to be clear on that in the above document!\u00a0 I’ll update\/edit this post if I am corrected.<\/p>\n

EDIT:<\/p>\n

^$%*(\u00a3!\u00a0 I had a gut feeling I should do a bit more digging in that Lync virtualisation doc and found:<\/p>\n

“Quick Migration and Live Migration with Lync Server 2010 workloads have not been validated by the product group at this point”.<\/em><\/p>\n

Again … I’m interpreting that as a lack of support for making a Lync VM highly available.\u00a0 That’s based on my experience dealing with MS CSS.\u00a0 If something goes wrong, they’ll find that statement and present it to you, forcing you to change your configuration before they will progress the call.\u00a0 Once again, I’ll be happy to be corrected with more recent information if it exists.\u00a0 And before you VMware-heads start jumping with joy, Live Migration = VMotion in MS’s point of view.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
