PowerPath/VE support with Microsoft Clustering on VMware
Just having a look through the vSphere 5.0 MSCS guide (linked below) and found the following statement.
"With native multipathing (NMP), clustering is not supported when the path policy is set to round robin. Third-party multipathing plug-ins might support round robin or other load balancing behavior with Microsoft clusters. Support of third-party multipathing plug-ins is provided by the plug-in vendor"
Anyone know if PowerPath/VE is supported in this type of configuration?

Thanks Itzik, assumed it was but Is this documented anywhere, I have a feeling customers will want to see it in writing.
