starting from scratch

Hi,

 

I plan to setup vSphere Essentials Plus at work.  I need to take an existing infrastructure and migrate

it to use vSphere.

 

Is it better if I custom build my own server (mobo, + cpu, +..etc) or should I purchase a name-brand

tower?  (At this moment,  I don't have the space/setup to have rack mounted stuff).

 

I'm planning to have two host machines, one a 'backup' of the other (via vMotion I think).

 

Is it 'logical' to have the following setup in addition to the above?

 

I'm moving my firewall and e-mail server to VMs under 1 host, such that it should act as if I did

the following:

                      HOST

<internet>---- [Firewall vm]---- <lan>

                    [   |            ]

                    [ email vm  ]

 

I'd have a DMZ within the HOST.  And I'd need two NiCs for the HOST (vSphere).  If I have a machine

with two NICs,  would I be able to use one for the Internet and the other for the LAN?

 

Thanks
