Yes, we do run several business critical services on NetBSD (Xen PV) byself since many years - but nothing
java based att - on our two main locations in germany as luxemburg and have some colo customers which use
NetBSD for i.e. ebusiness platforms too...

HA is widely scalable but - as everywhere in that business - a question of cost and requirements. To "press
out" the last sub decimal percents of possible downtimes in a year costs are rising over proportional.

BTW: If HA is major point it makes sense to run xen PV even on dedicated metal as managable, failure tolerant hardware.
