Is it safe to Thin Provision storage an Oracle RDBMS in VirtualBox?

fayloreDec 20 2010 — edited Dec 25 2010

I've been practicing Oracle RDBMS installs and I've noticed occasional corruption in the database files. The VM storage is thin provisioned. Could that be the issue

This has happened several times now under both Win7-64 and Oracle Linux.

At this point, I'm running dbv daily, but I can switch to fully allocated storage also.
