I can buy the VDI starter kit but from my understanding so wont I be allowed to run any servers vms at all on the machine (Well except for a VM with VDM on it). I want to run ESXi on this new host and the server vm's but I also want to run VDI on it and the desktop vm's it is using.

I'm very happy with the current setup the only thing I want is a more robust host that is on the HCL so I have ordered a new HP D元80G5 Quad core 8GB. Now the eval is running out and I'm trying to figure out what the best path for us is. We also run a few server VM's on this host (So both server vm's and desktop vm's) and everything is running along well. Harvard T.H.Currently we are running a eval of VDI on a single test built ESXi host. If you encounter any issues, please contact our Helpdesk at of Information Technology More detailed laptop requirements can be found in our student guide.
