Oracle RAC on Red Hat under VMware ESX, Lack of Support and User Experiences

This article explores the lack of official support for Oracle RAC running on Red Hat under VMware ESX and gathers user experiences with this potentially unsupported configuration


I am interested to find out from [vmware]https://www.vmware.com/) and oracle why Oracle RAC running on Red Hat under vmware esx is not supported by either company yet. I have spoke to both companies and there seems to be an indication that they will be certifying it soon. But no official response as to when.

If anybody is running in a production environment. I would like to here from you on experiences or issues. Thanks.
