Oh my, definitely yes.  After all, we all know from the experts that
another layer of abstraction only helps to keep us safe from the evil
hackers!

On a OT note, I found a documented case where vmotion is claimed to
have cause database corruption[1] according to my AV [EMAIL PROTECTED]  I'm
not sure exactly how the hell that can happen, but I'm sorta keeping
an eye on it - we use vmotion for our av management console too :(
Yes, from this vendor who said everything works fine when it doesn't.

*sigh*

[1]  Note - not necessarily DB corruption, but the symptoms are...
well... symptomatic :)
