DMC 2.0 support in virtual environment
I have installed DMC 2.0.0 console on virtual machine, all managed Dell servers ale physical. I had some problems with it, so I've opened a support case on ProSupport. Their answer was that DMC is not supported in virtual environment. I don't agree with them, because Altiris 7.1 platform is supported in virtual.
Please, what is the truth ?

section 2.12 states:
[2.12] Can I install DMC in a Virtual Machine?
Virtual Machines (VM) - DMC 1.0.2 and above can be installed in a virtual
machine (ESX 3.5 U2).
Dell Management Console is tested to install in the following
VM environment:
--ESX 3.5 U2
Other notes for VM installs:
--Minimum 4GB Virtual RAM
--Minimum 4 Virtual Processors
--Physical server should have VT enabled processors
--Use a remote SQL database (physical server)
--Variations on this configuration may work, but have not been tested.
--See kb.altiris.com - 45258 and 45257 for additional details.
DMC 1.1 can be installed on ESX 3.5 U2/U4
So yes, it's supported. I call shenanigans on their answer! It's supported BUT ... make sure of the caveats above....
