Sorry but Hyper-V is not a supported platform for FireSIGHT Management Center.

I don't know if you could hack it into working, but you'd be on your own for support if you were able to do so.

My experience with the product is that it's very powerful and useful but not something you want to self-support. There's a lot of complexity under the covers that makes the product do what it does.

Correct, I have deployed a number of VM FireSIGHT Management Centers and VMware is the only vendor supported at this time that I am aware of. I have had multiple questions about Hyper V support from many customers and I always reference this Datasheet, Table #3 which lists all the FireSIGHT FMC modules including virtual devices and only VMware is supported
