Running VMWare Server inside Parallels?

I wonder if anyone has downloaded the beta VMWare server product and installed inside Parallels guest OS -- like Windows XP/SP2?

I need to do some experimentation and I figure before I try, I would see if anyone has tried this in the past?

If VMWare server is workable, then I wonder about creating a VMWare virtual machine to run inside the server?

There are so-called appliance VMWare VMs that come preconfigured -- e.g Red Hat Enterprise 3 with BEA Weblogic pre-installed that I may try to install into the server.

I wonder if the magic of running XP inside Parallels, then running VMWare server inside the XP guest, and then running VMWare VM inside of that is possible?

Unless I here others failed at this, I may give it a go.

Hey,

Thanks for the confirmation.

I just downloaded the VMware player and an "appliance" VMware container supposedly containg Red Hat Enterprise Linux (3 I think) with Weblogic pre-installed.

I plan to have a go at that soon.

That's pretty sweet. How is the performance of the nested VMWare session? Have you tried running more than one inside Parallels?
