Aidan Finn:Let’s get this out of the way quickly.  Yes, you can run Linux virtual machines on a Hyper-V cluster and you can Live Migrate them.  I have SUSE Enterprise Linux 10 SP1 VM’s running on our cluster.  I can live migrate them from one host to another and not lose a ping packet during the move.

There’s a configuration that you must to to ensure this stability.  I first read about it online and it is in the Microsoft documentation for the Linux integration components.
