As the title suggest what should i be running.

This is what i got and want to get out of it.

3 dell servers

Server1 will have two VM's running. One Pervasive SQL and the other MS SQL
Server2 will have two VM's running. One E-mail (Mdaemon) and the other PDC

I then want to replicate these 4 VM's (using any method) onto the 3rd Server and have high availability configured so if one VM fails it will start on the 3rd server.

Simple yes? Laughing

I have found i could get ESX server and HA from VMware for £8500, and looking into SWSoft but will OpenVZ be able to do this or VMware server.

Hope someone can help/advise me

Some of the apps you need to run sounds like Windows apps to me. Note OpenVZ is Linux-only. Although I suppose Virtuozzo for Windows could be a great solution to what you have — but this is out of scope for this site.
