How heavy of a workload is the DB managing?
Everything I've read says you have to be very careful if virtualizing your DB. At very least give the virtual machine a real disk partition.
Of course, I've only read about it - never done it myself :-) But am about to do some benchmarking soon to satisfy my curiosity.
