    Hi, Thank you for taking the time to rate Performance Advisor. Based on your Virtualization rating, I recommend making sure you are on the latest version of SQL Sentry (10.1.72), as many of our latest releases have included additional Virtualization support and feature sets. While this is true for both VMware and Hyper-V, I have supplied some information on our VMware support below as that is what you noted as using. -http://blogs.sqlsentry.com/jasonhall/sql-sentry-v9-0-vmware/ -http://blogs.sqlsentry.com/jasonhall/sql-sentry-v10-world-bigger/ Thanks, and please let us know if you have any further questions!
