Rob,

I think one reason for the impression is that Exchange 2007 32bit can
be difficult to install on Virtual Server. For example, I've got two
partially functioning Exchange 2007 virtual machine installs. Failure
of one or more services to start seems to be a common symptom.

At the moment I am not clear on the mechanism and fixes for these
problems.

I was running multiple Exchange 2007 32 bit servers from January 2006
through to January 2007 when I switched to vmware to run the 64 bit
version of Exchange in virtuals.
Not once, ever, did I have a problem like the one you describe.
Perhaps I was lucky. The servers do like to chew resources and the
Management Console suffered timeouts whilst loading but that's as
simple as using the Management Console installed on a different box to
fix. It'll connect well enough to the busy virtuals, just not start
too well.
