I used to think so, but with ESX 3.0 built specially for Citrix support, and
the larger hardware (ours are on DL385 Dual/Dual, with 6-16GB ram), we are
able to handle some pretty intensive applications to date.

I believe the general concesus is is that for production, VM's are not the
way. Lightly used servers are fine, but for an entire farm the performance
is ismply not there yet.

Currently running FR3 on 2000 SP4, and am beginning to evaluate and look at
building a separate Windows 2003 CPS 4.0 Farm on the VMWare ESX platform.
Just wanted to get an idea if anyone on the list has something similar in
production today, what hardware you deployed to support published apps on
ESX and VMotion, and how you designed your farm (including Data Collector
and Database). Also looking for Best Practices and Things to Avoid!
Thanks!!
