Re: vmware & Oracle

I run Oracle on VMWare right now. I have both a two
VMWare RAC configuration and a non-RAC configuration.
I would never use such a configuration for anything
other than a development/test features kind of
environment. It's not supported by Oracle, but it does
work and is great for those kinds of uses.
