Hi Mike, That doc is really out of date, dVS is supported for all network types now, I had it setup for mgmt, storage, public, etc… in my previous job (large ISP) and we even migrated from SVS to dVS without any downtime (ACS 4.11). And our lab at Shabeblue (4.15) also uses dVS, no issues there. If you run into any issues just let me know and I’d be glad to help.

Hi Mike, I'll ask my colleague @Alex Mattioli to comment - I believe both are achievable with some effort.

As I stated in my email the latest on a VMware VDS is from version 4.11 and was wondering if compatibility/supportability has changed over the recent versions of either Apache CloudStack and/or VMware. Thanks!
