The imagination conversion of Apple and Leopard Server support - - to modify license condition, on the hypothetical machine group of servers OS work p

The United States Apple make work recently eased the license restriction of Mac OS X Server v10.5 Leopard which is up-to-date server OS, group of servers OS the hypothetical machine (tried to be able at VM) top. Vendor each company which develops the hypothetical conversion software of Mac correspondence has welcomed the sign where Apple starts stressing to the business market.

Apple the software license agreement book of Leopard Server (EULA: End User License Agreement) those where you become aware promptly in modifying were the system engineer of the American Wisconsin Madison university. With the modification of latest EULA, the conditionality that "the physical system is Apple make", it became possible to make plural Leopard work Server on VM. Furthermore, this EULA is not applied by Mac OS of client edition X Leopard, as description above it has made breach of contract that you imagine convert with method.

"Installing another copy of Leopard Server on the computer where the label of Apple is attached, it can also use in new EULA. In that case, it is necessary in every respective copy to purchase the effective license from Apple. It installs the software of this corporation to the computer where the label of Apple has not been attached, you make use and make work, it cannot permit the behavior such as that to the other user, "that it is written.

The communication charge director of the United States Parallels which offers the hypothetical conversion software "Parallels for Mac Desktop for Mac", as for V, "as for modifying EULA because Apple makes imagination conversion possible this time points out for the first time". According to the same person, possibility technically that Mac OS X Server is mounted on VM, was found rather from before, but if Apple has produced the stoplight, as for commercialization you say that it was difficult. "In the Mac hypothetical conversion market also VMware of the rival, to us is the expectation which is similar standpoint",

According to , you say that Leopard Server beta edition of the work possible hypothetical machine software, from Parallels is the prospect that release it is done December or in January.

The senior product manager and padof the United States VMware have not made clear concerning the わ る future product schedule which it waits in the imagination conversion support of Leopard Server, but mind of welcome is displayed in the EULA modification of Apple.

On the one hand, we do not announce Apple, formally concerning the modification of EULA, do not put out either comment. But as for , Apple which the business market, continued bitter fight so far especially at major enterprise, as for cutting the rudder in the direction which recognizes the imagination conversion of Mac OS X Server, sees as the sign which freshly it has been about probably to stress to the business market.

"Here recently, the product of Apple has started being used at enterprise of all scales. As for the largest reason, there is a point that it can work Windows on Mac. By the fact that access to mounting and important application of the Intel platform is actualized, as for Apple it could open the road to the business market. At this point in time the expectation which is applicable to also the server is ",

"in addition to Mac OS X, as for the point which the instance of other OS on Xserve, the expectation which such as Windows is high appraised from the user and Linux can work. A demand that had been made ", from the time before, we want by this corporation trying to be able to move Mac application simply between the group of physical servers, you say.

The system whose VM which Mac OS X works is possible has strange of the strategy even in the point where has made only the physical machine of Apple make. "That, it points out Xserve probably becomes the powerful choices for all users which you think as for , as for the hardware efficiency of Xserve we are superior, by the fact that the imagination conversion of Mac OS X Server has become possible, we would like to make plural instances work with the single machine that,".

In addition, as for, "without imagination conversion it cannot pull out the efficiency of Xserve which loads Xeon of 4 cores to full. To execute parallel processing with the plural cores, because the application which can show high performance is little ", that you have expressed.
