[Glass] GLASS appliance (VMWare virtual machine) still available?

[Mariano Martinez Peck via Glass]

Hi Frank,

For a customer I am working for, I have a "template" VirtualBox image where
I have GemStone installed and everything read and configured to put the
app. The app I am working for is "multi site" in the sense that we can
provide multi installations of the app under different sites. So I can have
a X number of VirtualBox running, each running Y number of sites (each one
GemStone).

I haven't hard many problems installing GemStone and I said, I do it only
once because then I clone the VirtualBox VM when needed. I am also using
Nginx, Monit, and other stuff.

My only comment is that SuSE does not seem to be in the official supported
list. I haven't heard of people having problem at any Linux, but bear in
mind that it may not be officially supported (GemStone guys please answer
me if I am wrong). This doc:
http://downloads.gemtalksystems.com/docs/GemStone64/3.2.x/GS64-InstallGuide-Linux-3.2.pdf
 suggest Ubuntu and Red Hat (I've been using CentOS without problems).

Best,
