I've one installation on VMWare Server 2.x using Ubuntu Server 8.04 LTS both as host and guest OSs. While Ubuntu is fine, I cannot really recommend VMWare Server. It interferes a lot with other VMs (one VM with RHEL running an Oracle DB and an J2EE app in tomcat and one VM with Win XP) on the same host. E.g. the clock of all VMs need to be synced via NTP every few minutes to keep up. Before using Ubuntu 8 as the client, I tried Ubuntu 9. It was running fine but wouldn't cleanly unmount its file systems on a regular shutdown. After spending days trying to figure out what was going on I reverted to Ubuntu 8 and the problem vanished. All this couldn't be reproduced on Fusion...
I currently don't have the resources to migrate to ESX(i) but would be interested in the experiences people have with it. Talking about virtualization in general, I also cannot recommend VirtualBox as I had several cases where the VM terminated with no apparent reason and wouldn't restart w/o restarting the host machine.
