As one might expect, management quickly becomes an issue if you're one or two people managing a couple hundred virtual machines. We're beginning to use cfengine (http://www.cfengine.com) as a method of keeping all of our VM's in line and up-to-date. Combined with Nagios for monitoring, we're able to sleep nights knowing that all's well, or at least we'll hear about it quickly if it isn't. Virtualization also affords the ability to add more redundancy than might be practical on physical servers. We're always looking for ways to leverage that advantage to identify and eliminate single points of failure. Thanks for the feedback everyone.

This sounds like you have built a very nice system that works for you. I am interested in what set of tools that you use to maintain health and quality of service for the sytsems that you deploy?
