Virtual Machines
Is there a possible way to configure a Virtual Machine on a physical server | hard drive connected to a VPN and use the Virtual Machine to test other physical Workstations connected to the same Netwo...
A VM is software that emulates a physical computer. You need a host machine to run a VM, whether it's your local machine i.e. workstation or server. A server can host many VM's without performance issues.
Majority of all software including TestComplete will run on a VM. It's not necessarily to know the host, hosting the VM is either a workstation or server.
We had TestComplete licences hosted on a physical machine, that's is connected to the main domain. I have a VM that is on a virtual private network, which doesn't have access to the main domain. Our IT team have configured the VM to gain access to the licence server. I run TestComplete on the VM.
Not that I'm aware of.
Your best bet is to get in contact with SmartBear.

Champion Level 3A server with it's own storage, can host VMs. Having VMs to test physical workstations, makes no sense!?
Is your question relating to TestComplete licences?
So, I know Test Execute can run test on VMs hosted on a Workstation. Can a VM hosted on a server run test on separate workstations connected to the same network?
Trying to find a way to allow access to licenses on a VPN without moving licenses over and re-configuring a new fingerprint file just to move the license from one machine to another.
