I agree. I was just hoping it was published somewhere as supported. I cant seem to find anything concrete from Cisco. All the canned OVF/OVA templates we have deployed are older hardware version 7 which is vmware 4.1 i believe. I would think Cisco would update this in the ova/ovf considering the age and considering 4.1 is no longer supported from VMware.
Trust me....i will be testing before production on this one unless i can find anything that says it is ok to do.
I know Citrix publishes their compatibility with their virtual netscalers and i am sure other vendors publish this for their virtual hardware appliances. Perhaps Cisco does and i just havent been able to find it yet. I will keep searching and ultimately open a TAC case if need be to get confirmation.
