Just looking at a document for PCI compliance.
• Implementing only one primary function per server to prevent functions that require different security levels from co-existing on the same server?
to me that's a VM per function?
e.g. before seeing this i was about to spin up a new VM that will be a file server (we have reasons for it not being cloud) then also a IIS site, run a password expiring messaging program (this was done by someone else, i'm sure there's a easier Free way of doing it).
But to me that says each of those functions should be on their own VM?Yes, that is the preferred way to handle things. Each VM only does a single thing. In this case 1 would be a file server and 1 would be an IIS server (why anyone would choose IIS over all the other faster alternatives I don't know.)

Also why use something so expensive, unless there is a requirement to use Windows.

I'm definitely in the "not deploying any more CentOS" camp now.

Well I was building a DC on current 2019, until I saw the one major glaring issue that shouldn't be fucking present. . .. . .
The domain level is over 12 years out of date. . .

Does 2019 not support DC level 2008? -

Does 2019 not support DC level 2008?It does not, when FSR is used. I'd have to migrate to DFSR from the existing DC first before I can introduce this new server into the environment.

Any perticular reason?
If you were spinning one up what would you use? -

If you were spinning one up what would you use?And because Redhat has killed the CentOS line, making a just before production ready OS. CentOS Stream is upstream to RedHat, meaning it's where DEV happens, rather than Fedora being the Dev platform (essentially).
-
The CentOS lineage used to look like this
Fedora > RedHat > CentOSBut now it looks like this
Fedora > CentOS > RedHatMaking Fedora even more bleeding edge then it was, and making CentOS just before "Production ready", essentially a proving ground for any changes before they make it into a final release for RedHat.
