Installed phpsysinfo on vm380num2, vm580num1, gsx-sol10, gsx-ubuntu504. Of course now that I run vmware server 1.0.1 - all the "gsx" names are incorrect and should really be "vm" instead.

Migrated gsx-ubuntu504 from the Athlon 2.2Ghz vmware GSX 3.0 server over to the vm580num1 server which has much more fault tolerance built in. My Athlon-vmware server was all single point of failure. This host vm instance was never really an always on instance - believe it or not, I prefer ...

Migrated gsx-turbo from the Athlon 2.2Ghz vmware GSX 3.0 server over to the vm580num1 server which has much more fault tolerance built in. My Athlon-vmware server was all single point of failure.
