I already have mine running on VmWare instance for several months, no
issues.

(Other than the fact it is SLOW as some have seen on standalone
servers!
We had that and I can say no difference in performance.)

Depending on your hardware setup for the VMWare environment that could
be

in my
experience, it has been a resource hog. You actually have me interested
in
trying the same thing. I think I'll be asking our guys to do the same.
