FWIW (and knowing this is not an answer to your questions) a customer of mine, with a very small office, has a Pentium G4400 with 4GiB of RAM, running FreeBSD with (among other things) one jail for DC and one jail for fileserver. I've been telling him he need to change that hardware for several years, but, while suboptimal, it works. bye av.

The same people also produce XenOrchestra, which is a web-based management interface for XenServer, so no need for Windows-based tools. While they are capable of in-place-upgrades, XCP-NG tracks XenServer, which is based upon CentOS 7, so really, nobody knows how Citrix is going to handle the backend in the future.
