Default Virtualized BES Yay or Nay?

Please Login to Remove!

Any one running their BES in a virtualized settings?

Just curious if their are any issues with it or if BES doesn't even know it's being virtualized.

BES works fine in VMware ESx. Not sure about M$ Virtual Server as I haven't played around in those environments. My guess is that it works there also.

BES is fully supported by RIM to function in a virtual machine on VMware ESX 3, and it works fantastically.

VMware ESX 4 is not yet officially supported, but it does work fine.

Our BES has run on ESX since day 1. It started on ESX3, then 3.5, and now 4 and it has run flawlessly.
