Roger, Thanks and I appreciate the quick answer. I do know that is not supported by BMC but my question for both the VMWare and SQL 2005 is whether or not anybody has it working. If I can get it working and then have some issues, I know that I would be on my own as far as BMC support is concerned, BUT, there is always the user community who are usually innovative in their use of Remedy.

Previous releases will not be provided support if issues occure. -----Original Message----- From: Mac Rhoades <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Sent: Fri, 21 Nov 2008 3:55 pm Subject: Company wants to use VMWare and SQL 2005 for Remedy 6.3 ** First, my environment: ARS 6.3 ITSM 6.0 (HelpDesk, Asset Management, Change Management) Some Custom Apps SQL Server 2000 IIS I have seen these items may be possible from various previous list emails but wanted to get some current information and advice. 1. My company would like to use more VMWare servers. I have seen that ARS is supported on VMWare but most comments have been that it should not be used in a Production environment, only in a development or test environment. Is that still the recommendation or are there some out there who are using VMWare servers for Remedy production? We currently have a little of 40,000 tickets in the HelpDesk app since February, 2006 and have around 600 customers in the People form. (This info may be useless, but wanted to add it anyway.) 2. We currently have SQL Server 2000 and I have read that some of you may be running ARS 6.3 on SQL Server 2005. Is that the case and if so, are there any issues or gotcha’s to watch out for. I am not sure when we will go to 7.x so I have to make these changes if possible with the existing environment. Thanks for your help in this and thanks for existence of this list.
