<p>Thanks for sharing your experience Bruce. I am going to use OpenVZ and hope
it'll work fine. Is ESXi free or costs license, just in case OpenVZ won't work.
The client I worked for, who was using OpenVZ had pretty moderately busy
asterisk servers and didn't have any issues with it.<o:p></o:p></p>

it out. It was just unexplained erratic Asterisk behavior that we did not
experience on dedicated hardware. And, we were not using any PRI or other

Did you use VMWare's hypervisor? I have no experience with it but I'll be using
Proxmox with no...</span><o:p></o:p></p>
