Tool needed. Do you agree?

Source: microsoft.public.virtualpc

Message:

Virtual PC is the most underrated product in Microsoft's arsenal. I can now
do in weeks what once took months. However, I was wondering if there are any
add-on tools for operating a farm of machines running VPC to emulate large
networks?

I am envision of the following:

A single interface to manage multiple hosts running VPC. I want to be able
to stop and start remote machines, move machines, build machines, duplicate
machines, and setup new projects with new directories. (I am currently using
various remote console tools. Not efficient enough).

In one scenario, for example, it would be nice to stop all VPC running on
all host machines in the VPC farm. Then, launch a new project, where all
machines from another project are restored or started.

In another scenario, I would be nice to use my strongest machines to build
the lab test VPC servers, and then move them off to other machines and launch
for their routine operation. Presently, I move an launch my VPCs manually,
however, it would be nice to have a tool that would allow me to push and the
builds out to other machines in a batch fashion using a single VPC project
management interface.

Is there anything available? Does anyone else have similar product desires?

Todd
