    Hi Milan,

    which elements of Service Management are you looking to run there? Only the SDM, USS and xFlow components are compatible with RHEL:

    Hello Brian and Iain,
    thank you for your replies.
    Our customer uses VMware ESXi as a virtualization platform. On this platform are running Windows 2012 R2 where are installed CA Service Management 14.x applications. The customer is considering to replace this virtualization platform with Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization (RHEV). I found an article called CA Support Statement for Virtualization. This article says that CA/Broadcom generally supports running applications on virtualization platforms but does not certificate particular platforms. I would like to know if somebody has real experience to run CA Service Management applications on the virtualization platform from Red Hat. I would like to know if there are some troubles or special requirements to successfully run CA Service Management applications on this virtualization platform.
    Regards,
    Milan
