DCNM-SAN & VMware

[richard.lee]

Hello,

In the release notes for DCNM 5.2, it states that DCNM-LAN can be installed as a virtual machine.  However, no where does it state that DCNM-SAN can be installed as a virtual machine.  So my question is can DCNM-SAN be run as a VM?  It would make sense that this would be allowed since LAN and SAN can now exist on the same box with 5.2 but it wouldn't make sense if SAN was not supported as a VM when LAN is.  Thanks.

Supported as of 5.2 per the release notes above. And both can coexist in the same VM.

This is the validation from the release note:

The Cisco DCNM server can run within a virtual machine, and requires one of the supported Windows or Linux operating systems listed in this section.

Specifics for the host OS can be found in the release notes.

Hope that helps,
