Is Virtuozzo 7 supported as a hypervisor?

[SteveITS]

Hi 3CX,

https://www.3cx.com/docs/recommended-hardware-specifications-for-3cx/#h.zeoyi5w0lmgf says KVM is supported. Per https://www.3cx.com/community/threads/debian-install-3cx.73274/, is Virtuozzo 7's KVM supported or not?

If not, can the requirements list be updated to reflect which types of KVM are compatible?

For reference our Virtuozzo 7 has installed:

Hi @3cx, @NickD_3CX and @JohnS_3CX, sorry to bug you personally but do you happen to know the answer? (whether all varieties of KVM are supported)

Thanks,

 

[SteveITS]

I asked 3CX's partner team and they said to keep waiting until someone answers in this thread, so I'm bumping the thread.

@StefanW Do you know who at 3CX would know if some types of KVM are not supported?

 

[StefanW]

No, it is not supported as it abstract the network layer beyond what KVM/VMware etc are doing (container-based abstract layer). Supported are native use of

using 3CX ISO:
Vmware ESXi
Microsoft Hyper-V (follow guides for setup instructions)
KVM native
Citrix Xen
--------------------------
using Marketplace or PBXexpress:
Amazone EC2/LightSail
Google Cloud (GCP)
Microsoft Azure
OVH

Thanks for your reply. Just to clarify one point though you mentioned containers and we're using VMs. I am a bit surprised as we've had no issues in the past year on any installation.
