VMware vSphere 9.0 Compatibility for the VMware vSphere Connector in Snow Integration Manager (SIM)

We are pleased to announce that the VMware vSphere connector in Snow Integration Manager (SIM) has successfully completed end-to-end compatibility testing with VMware vSphere 9.0, including vCenter Server 9.0 and ESXi 9.0.

The validation confirmed that connector authentication, inventory discovery, and data ingestion continue to work as expected.

What this means for you

• Continued inventory coverage for VMware vSphere 9.0 environments
• Compatibility with vCenter Server 9.0 and ESXi 9.0
• Confidence when upgrading or deploying VMware vSphere 9.0
• Reduced connector integration and compatibility risk when upgrading your VMware environment

Important note

VMware vSphere 9.0 compatibility was validated using the existing VMware vSphere connector in Snow Integration Manager (SIM). No specific SIM upgrade, connector update, additional component, or configuration change is required.

However, we recommend using the latest available version of Snow Integration Manager to benefit from the latest product updates and fixes.

Oracle VM Connector - questions from Snow R&D

[Originally posted in 2019]

Hi SnowGlobers,

for those who would be interested in the Oracle VM Connector, here's a question coming from our R&D: 

"Hi Supporters of this idea, we are just heating up our development machinery on this topic. Who of you would be available to answer some questions, to make sure we are aiming the right direction? 

Questions like: x86 only, or also Sparc?

Query the Hypervisor directly, or querying a Management Software instead?

Would the Management Software be Oracle VM Manager, or something else like OpenStack? 

Just get in touch with me, using the way you prefer. 

Thanks in advance,

@Oliver Berger​ "

So be sure to get in touch with him

Thanks!
