Jim,
We used to follow the dogma that things like DNS servers, etc should have their own hardware but we're backing away from that. Why use a 1U server when you can just make it a virtual server on your vmware server? This allows snapshots, etc. And you can always set up a redundant on a different vm server.
Why complicate the save/restore with dedicated hardware?
