Kenneth, Yes, most people are using VMWare for their CM, CUC, CUP and UCCX servers. I downloaded the OVA templates for 8.6 and used them for my 7.x installs. I get a message at the CLI prompt that says it's not supported, but it works fine. Been studying this way for a year. I have 3 routers and a 3560 switch along with 7 IP Phones.
