Interesting - your OVM hosts DIED ? Was that software related or hardware related ?
OVM is getting better. VMWare is incredibly stable, but its been around for donkeys years. OVM will eventually become stable, providing Oracle continue pouring development resources into it.

OVM update - After much angst and many phone calls and escalations with Oracle, our OVM hosts seem to be stable. The crashing issue was a NIC driver issue. We have two dual one gig nics in each host. When we teamed the nics together to get fault tolerance and 4 GB throughput, OVM choked up and died. We unteamed the nics and things worked. Oracle rewrote the driver and we reteamed the nics, and it has remained stable. Ah, life on the bleeding edge.....
