Backup Exec media server in a VMware virtual machine itself

Hi!
I have read a lot about backing up virtual machines with Backup Exec and AVVI. But I am curious about a possibility  to run Backup exec media server itself in a VMware virtual machine. Is it supported. In Software compatibility list it is written that it has to be run in Windows enviroment. But it is not clarified there,  whether this environment should be virtual or real. Do you have any real experience of running BE itself in virtual machine? Is it supported?

Regards!
