Anybody has experience with WeBWorK Virtual Machine Image installation on server hypervisor or if any issues are expected there?

Our IT says that the instructions at 
https://webwork.maa.org/wiki/WeBWorK_2.19_Ubuntu_Server_24.04_LTS_Virtual_Machine_Image
seem to be for desktop hypervisors and that it is possible that there will be issues with compatibility in our server hypervisor.

The instructions on the wiki have been tested on desktop hypervisors because that is what was available to the person who wrote those instructions. The file formats used for the VM are pretty standard and should work with most server hypervisors, but you may need to tweak things to work with your specific infrastructure.

If there are questions about using the VM with a specific hypervisor you can post them here and we can try to help.
