Best way to utilize multiple servers in a small network.


i have small network used software development.  have 4 identical servers, right running 2008r2.  have 12gb ram , 1tb raid 0 drives.

server1 = domain controller
server 2 = app server - sql server
server 3 = app server - exchange
server 4 = app server - visual studio team foundation server

i considering promoting 1 of app servers dc; wouldn't host fismo's available hot backup in case other dc failed.  thinking server 4 work domain controller , still host team foundation server.

does sound appropriate?  or have better suggestions?

thanks.

hi

it's recommended have dc installed in physical machine, , can install second 1 in virtual machine ensure  high  availability of domain.
other applications,virtualization idea ,it let install each application in virtual machine ,for ,you can install hyper-v included in windows server 2008r2 operating system  but must know if have application require ressource (more 4 processor) sql, hyper-v 2008r2 can't provide option. should install in physical server or install hyper-v of windows 2012
