thanks, good to know.
The only (silly, rhetorical) question is, who in his own mind would run a Windows server to host Linux VM's :-))

I would have to say that one can expect audio distortion issues is just not true anymore.

 

With the new Hyper-V integration code present since the 3.5 and 3.8 kernels which Ubuntu 12.04 and 13.04 uses, the Linux kernel can use a synthetic clock source that Hyper-V provides just like KVM does. Even the CentOS 6.4 kernel uses a synthetic clock source too as the guys at Red Hat back ported a lot of changes from the upstream Hyper-V code back to their kernel.

 

If the synthetic clock source doesn’t work out for you, there is always the good old mod_timerfd to fix issues like this.

You will likely have audio distortions. OpenVZ or Xen virtualization should do a better job (myself, I run two production servers under XEN and never had problems with audio quality).

 

Search in Google for FreeSWITCH or Asterisk under Hyper-V, and you will see the whole spectrum of opinions, and no real detailed test results.

I just need a little advice setting up a freeswitch VM box shared with a http VM on hyper-v host and was wondering whether there are any gotcha's that I should be aware of.

I expect about 50 devices to be registered on it at any time and not expecting a high volume of calls.

It will be a fairly low spec dual core machine (dell sc1425), with 8gb ram

 

Thanks in advance for any advice.
