Hi Will,

Yes while we don't have VMware 6.0 official listed as a supported
hypervisor, I've reports from some users who have claim that it works for
them in their environment. We have not confirmed that it works for all
major environment permutations (basic zone with/without SG, with/without
local disks; advanced zone with/without SG, advanced zone with shared
networks).

Provided that vmware sdk and APIs are still backwards compatible, the
current vmware plugin should work with VMware 6.0, but we require a set of
tests to conclude that it actually *works* and maybe then we can update the
list of supported hypervisors in CloudStack admin/release docs.

Regards.
