I think it would be useful for training and Lab purpose if cisco supported...we
are not concerned about system performance or what so ever we just need to have
a couple of virtual machines on a single server to reduce lab costs and to
always be able to revert to a clean machine state&nbsp;...I even tried to
install CM on vmware on a supported platform but the installation detects that
it is a VMware and refuses to install.<br>

it is more in the tradition of cisco documentation.&nbsp; not stated = not
