Yes I have, works very well. It has enabled me to let our faculty staff to
request one 8 core server (which they understand) and then we can still provide
them 24 CPU's during the night, instead of just 8 cores.
Performance is manageable in VMware with Resource Pools. I haven't tested
performance compared to "real Oscars" but I have only used Ansys CFX on this
cluster and it works OK.
