Sun and VMware will continue their robust qualification program of VMware products on Sun systems. The companies will also work to ensure that the SolarisTM Operating System will continue to be a first-class guest operating system on VMware virtualization software, and VMware Infrastructure will be a first-class datacenter virtualization run-time and management stack on Sun x64 systems. The two companies plan to also collaborate on system management configuration, deployment and monitoring for each other's products.
