Correct as John mentioned. We have setup Virtual Server 2005 Enterprise
Edition (because it cannot be done with Standard Edition) using the link
below.
Using Microsoft Virtual Server 2005 to Create and Configure a Two-Node
Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Cluster
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/virtualserver/deploy/cvs2005.ms
px
On Virtual Server 2005, I've setup (1) DC and (3) Nodes with 3 groups,
Cluster Group, Printer Spooler Group and User's Home Folder Group. Works
great for testing and getting the feel of a Cluster enviornment.
840192 Requirements for configuring clustering in Virtual Server 2005
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=840192
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Because Virtual Server 2005 does not support the failover from a virtual
machine on one host computer to a virtual machine that resides on a second
host computer, a server cluster that you configure in Virtual Server 2005
is best suited for testing and development purposes. Microsoft recommends
that you do not use this configuration in a production environment.
