<p>Did you use VMWare's hypervisor? I have no experience with it but I'll be
using Proxmox with no KVM, just OpenVZ because the server's processors don't
support hardware virtualization. I have worked for someone before with Asterisk
1.4s running on Proxmox, and there was no issue regarding virtulization of
asterisk. Plus I am not using DAHDI or PRI, just plain SIP and IAX.<o:p></o:p></p>
