Hello everyone!

I'm looking to set up Active Directory at home along with RHEL IDM, but I only have one available Dell R710 for this purpose. My plan is to install XCP-NG on the Dell R710, accompanied by a small VM running Xen Orchestra Community Edition for management. Additionally, I intend to create two main VMs: one with Windows Server for Active Directory and a second one with Linux running RHEL IDM.

My primary concern revolves around the CPU and whether it will be sufficient to run this setup. The Windows Server will also serve as the DHCP and DNS server for my network, which includes multiple VLANs.

luckily power wise is a non issue in my case. I can always migrate to a newer system down the road. but I have to start with it on something. so the R710 it is for the time being. Thanks for your input!

The room you run it in WILL get hot, make sure it’s adequately ventilated.

This. While great in winter it's not so fun in summer.
