Gary, my 110 VMs at work run SAV and VMotion and I’m not experiencing any of the described issues.

Although you don’t specifically say, I presume it is the case that, with your 110 VMs, you have never experienced any of the issues that Symantec alludes to?

Any SAV or SEP code running inside a guest VMware VM which has VMotion enabled is unsupported.

Maybe I’m just need sleep, but it seems abit unclear to me. Does this that all vm guests using sep are unsupported, or that the sep server itself is unsupported as a vm? Or both?

The good news is that McAfee fully supports it and would be more then happy to have your business…

Even before I read the vinternals post I was thinking “are these just common Symantec reliability problems that they can’t find a solution for?”.
