Hi all,

I was wondering whether anyone has had any experience running postgresql
in a vm under ESx. VMware provides significant HA/DR oppurtunities and
we would like to use it if we can. The DBase would be on a EMC SAN
hosted LUN and the ESx servers would be dual Quad CPU HP DL-380/G5s. At
this stage we would use iSCSI for SAN connectivity as our testing with
MS-SQL has not indicated that FC is needed.

We are getting a bit of push back from the external support agency who
seem more than a little bit nervous about the environment. I would
appreciate any comments.
