Summary :
SAP supports running SAP software on Linux with specific virtualization technologies, which must be certified through SAP or a hardware partner. To ensure compatibility, users should consult SAP's Supported Platforms webpage and the VMware Compatibility Guide. Resource demands from virtualization require adjusted server sizing, addressed via hardware partner collaboration. Not all SAP releases support comprehensive monitoring in virtualized environments, which may restrict SAP support services. Restrictions from third-party software used in these environments must be considered by customers. This note lists SAP-certified virtualization products and excludes unsupported technologies while pointing out related comprehensive SAP notes for further details on database compatibility and virtualization-specific recommendations.
