Is it mandatory to use those servers the way you wanted ?

Ultrasparc servers are nice machines,...but not for everything !
Instead of building poor perf windows VM with top servers; maybe you
could (don't know about your cost limits) use thoses servers another
way and buy a couple of (less sexy, i agree) Intel/amd64 machines
where you could install proxmox 3.1 servers in order to use HA.

Your T2 could be turned into ...storage backend servers for your HA
cluster ?
For instance : ZFS which is a wonderful FS.

Whether you choose FreeBSD or Solaris (the homeland of ZFS), you'll
get a nice backend storage.

My 2 cts.
