I wanted to go with the latest and greatest vMA, so installed vma5, which is compatible with 4.0 U2 and 4.1. Since my system is running at 4.1, I figured we were good.
This has worked well. I was using the vCLI and CLI to execute commands from the command line. But the VMA definately makes it simpler and easier to do. I especially like it for adding additional NFS volumes, which in a 9 host cluster can be time consuming.
The only disapppointment so far is vmware has removed the vi-logger from vma5. I was looking forward to consolidating my logs with this, but now it will be a little more complex.
One last step I almost forgot is to upgrade the vDS networking to 4.1. I'll have to schedule that and then I can enable Network I/O control.
