  • Article

Applies To: Virtual Machine Manager 2008, Virtual Machine Manager 2008 R2, Virtual Machine Manager 2008 R2 SP1

Can I promote my VMM server to an Active Directory domain controller?

No. This will cause the VMM server to malfunction. However, you can install the VMM server on a computer that is already a domain controller.

Is VMM supported in an environment that has a disjointed namespace?

Yes. For more information about installing VMM in a disjointed namespace, see Planning for a Disjointed Namespace.

Can I make the VMM server highly available by configuring it as a clustered application on a failover cluster of physical servers?

No. Instead, you can run VMM on a highly available virtual machine. For more information, see Planning for High Availability.
