      because i heard before that for servers there is like a tool that give the state of the server, but i'm not remembering in which context i hear it

      I think we would need more information to understand what they were trying to tell you.

      A server is just a PC. Better built, meant to hold more stuff, rack mount rails and all that... but a PC is a PC under the hood.

          And then install Xen Orchestra too. Best way to run XenServer! If you are just doing this for a test or a small transition, get the appliance for free. Limited, but super easy to get started.

                      thank you , it works like a charm
                      now i just successfully virtualize my win7 machine with VMware vCenter Converter Standalone Client, then i import the VMDK into XenServer, then i installed xenserver tool, everything is OK but my question here is why i didn't get activation message from windows, as far as i'm concerned when the platform change from P to V, the system ask you to activate it again, !!

                              Yes, web, and far, far more features than XenCenter.

                                    It may not activate then, plus who knows what else it is doing.

                                        is that builtin backup offer incremental or full backup ?? also can i save my VM to a NAS for example ??
