Since the technologies are completely different, VMWare uses full virtualization and OpenVZ uses OS partitioning, is it possible to run OpenVZ inside a VM?

I cannot see why not. Does anybody have any experience with this?

Were actually looking at using diskless servers with Virtual Iron and running OpenVZ nodes as VMs.

This would give us high consolidation and OS flexibility with the ability to perform datacenter load balancing.

sure, OVZ can run inside any VM.
We have as example Xen kernels for running OpenVZ in Dom0 or DomU

Another question: do you probe to run VirtualBox in OpenVZ VE? Smile
(there is no problem with VE0, but may be we hane one in users VE?)

If that is OK, then OpenVZ can be used as sheduler for VirtualBox machines
