I was just wondering about that. So it’s not possible to virtualize VMware ESXi under SmartOS?
I know the reverse does work fine, and I have done it, with PCI passthrough for the LSI host adapters, but my SmartOS installation is production and my ESXi needs are strictly experimental, so I don’t want to put the ESXi underneath SmartOS at this point.
