With the the example you provided, what kind of hardware was running on the machine(s) hosting all of those VMs?

For the sun/sun-like systems:

Code:

System:    Kernel: 2.6.26-2-amd64 x86_64 (64 bit) Console: tty 1
           Distro: Debian 5.0 (lenny vm-server)
Machine:   System: Dell product: PowerEdge SC1420
           Mobo: Dell model: 0T7495 Bios: Dell v: A02 date: 04/01/2005

           Display Server: X.org 1.4.2 driver: FAILED: mach64
           tty size: 80x24 Advanced Data: N/A out of X

           Init: SysVinit runlevel: 2 Client: Shell (bash) inxi: 2.2.19

and for the remainder:

Code:

System:    Kernel: 3.2.0-4-amd64 x86_64 (64 bit) Console: tty 5
           Distro: Debian 7.7 (wheezy vm-server-ng)
