    I know a while back, the LBI install doc used to say VM instances supported for development only.  Does anyone here know if that has changed since?
    I cannot find any reference to yes or no for VM support in production.

    Thanks in advance,

      The word I heard from a call with Lawson was that it was supported as long as you can replicate on a physical server. We have the ability to have our network operations center quickly do a virtual to physical copy that we can test on. We are looking to make the change to virtual first quarter of next year.

        Thanks, Mark. That's what I was looking for.
        Needed this type of answer for requesting new servers or not for our upgrade to 2008 Server.

        I have installed in our Testing environment 2008 Server, LBI 9.0.4.1 on WAS 7.0.0.11 with Crystal 2008 and everything appears to be fine. Just was unable to find anything concrete on supported or not.

          I saw a release from Lawson posted on the support site last year. It stated that VM is supported for LBI with the caveat Mark indicated. I can't find the doc right now though...
