We are finally getting to the point....
How many machines do you need to use for that setup?
2 - one to test and 1 production host backed by a failover machine
running a dozens of VM's but *not* because different versions but
because of different services / customers and security profiles
I prefer to use 1 system on 1 hardware on 1 disk - no kvm, no qemu.
And even containers are not a good fit - thought getting close....
and because you don't want to handle modern technologies like
virtualization others should suck tainting a clean installation?
Why I cannot use multiple different versions of php on a SINGLE
machine ?
Why I cannot use some 10 years old graphical program (unless I do a
local static compilation, so I'm sure it will work) ?
uhm i know people which can even configure each of their customers on a
single machine for different php-versions selecting 4.x, 5.0, 5.1, 5.3,
5.4 and 5.5 currently.................
