Sure I can give it a go. I am running fedora directory server inside a VMware host. It works well. I think the main bullet point of Virtualization is that reasourse hungry processes are not going to function well in any emulated environment. E.G. if your server is pegged 100% CPU with high disk IO it is going to be even worse on a machine with 3-4 other systems.
I think it is ideal for emulation. Especially small ones. I think somewhere on the internet there is a vmware FDS guest you can just load up and play with.

I've been reading some things lately -- see, for instance, http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2006-05/msg00853.html -- that suggests that running Fedora DS (or OpenLDAP, or, theoretically, any Berkeley-DB-reliant app) in a Xen DomU might not be the best idea. The thread mentioned above has a few people claiming it works fine for them, but both are at _very_ small sites. Can anyone either corroborate or debunk these claims? Thanks!
