VMware preparing a minor GSX Server update

VMware actually started the GSX Server 3.2 beta program. It introduces just wider host and guest OSes support and obvious bug fixes, without new features:


New Operating System Support

– VMware GSX Server 3.2 adds full support for the following 64-bit host operating systems on AMD64 and Intel® EM64T processors:
Microsoft Windows Server 2003 x64 Edition as a host operating system on AMD64 and Intel EM64T processors

– VMware GSX Server 3.2 adds experimental support for the following 64-bit host operating systems on AMD64 and Intel EM64T processors:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 Update 4
SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9 Service Pack 1
SUSE LINUX 9.2

– VMware GSX Server 3.2 adds support for the following 32-bit host and guest operating systems:
Microsoft® Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1
Mandrake Linux 10.0 and 10.1
Red Hat? Enterprise Linux 4
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 Update 4
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 Update 6
SUSE? LINUX Enterprise Server 9 Service Pack 1
SUSE LINUX 9.2

Notice that experimental support for Sun Solaris 10 brought in with VMware Workstation 5.0 don’t appear on this GSX 3.2 beta build. I’m afraid we’ll need to wait till GSX Server 4.0.
