Sharepoint & SQL

Source: microsoft.public.virtualserver

Hello all,

Up until now I've used VS strictly for proof-of-concept testing and other
development work. We are currently planning to rollout Sharepoint Portal,
and are considering putting this into a virtual environment. Worst case I
would run the front-end web servers and possibly BizTalk as virtuals.

My questions are more related to SQL than anything else. Considering how
large the database could grow (with documents stored as blobs in the db), has
anyone here had any problems running relatively large SQL databases within
VHD drives (>100gb) ? Or should I not even bother and just run the SQL box
as a physical load? I know that each instance is just a single file anyway,
but has anyone run into performance or operational issues with these large
volumes? Would a linked drive be a benefit?

Thanks for the words of wisdom.

Paul
