It's probably note 249212.1 you're referring to and yes, it says something to that effect, but I think there are a lot of different interpretations of the note. I think my interpretation as stated previously is fairly accurate, but in reality it could come down to something as trivial as who answers the phone when you call support and what kind of mood they're in, or how carefully and politely you submit your request, etc. I can't quote the Metalink note here due to licensing restrictions, but anyone with Oracle support can (and probably should) read it very carefully for themselves and then follow up with direct conversations with both Oracle sales and tech support reps to clarify any doubts and make a good decision as to whether or not Oracle's support policy meets their needs for running on VMWare or not.

Thanks for your responses. It was a documented requirement in a Metlaink note.
