Searchable, database-driven hardware compability guide
We're pleased to announce the availability of a new database-driven system for our compatibility guides. From the page: "This online Hardware Compatibility Guide replaces the former Hardware Compatibility Guides for systems, I/O devices, and SAN arrays for ESX 3.0 and greater versions, as well as VMware View Client. For compatibility guides of other VMware products or earlier ESX releases and VMware View Client, please use the Other Documents tab."
Try out the system for yourself at http://www.vmware.com/resources/compatibility/ There are also HCL RSS feeds available at http://vmware.simplefeed.net/subscription
Rodos has a nice walkthrough with this modified screenshot. Musings of Rodos: VMware release searchable HCL system. Note you can click on the entries to get a more detailed popup screen.
See also Jason Boche who would still like the pdfs (but you can export these searches as pdf), Dave Lawrence, and Sven Huisman, who would like a combined guide -- we still provide a separate Guest Operating System Installation Guide.
