VMware Player? VMware Server?
I did a search on the various VMware threads but I have to admit got a little confused after a while. I have installed WVPC and XPM and have some apps set up in XPM. But I am a little disappointed with the speed, or lack of, of the virtual environment. I've seen a number of posts which suggest that VMware provides a virtual environment that is a bit snappier, so I figured I'd give it a try.
Do I use VMware Server or Player? I got the impression Server was more along the lines of WVPC; is that correct? I downloaded the Player, but then found another program there called VMware-vix-1.8.0-203739. I'm not sure what that is. If it's an either/or for Server/Player, what does one get you that the other doesn't?
Since I already have XPM installed and set up, did I understand correctly that if I install Player it will "absorb" the existing XPM and virtual license so that I don't have to do anything after installing Player? Do I need to use the vCenter Converter if I install Player?
