Note: In Data Center Expert 8.1.0 and newer, the Data Center Expert Virtual Appliance OVA is built on VMware ESXi 6.7. Only E1000E and VMXNET3 network adapters are supported.

VMware ESXi 4.1.0 was used as the reference virtualization platform in previous versions and during the development of the Data Center Expert 7.2.x virtual appliance, and is the first supported virtualization platform.

Although the DCE VM may function properly on any virtualization platform that supports these formats or has an appropriate converter utility, only VMware ESXi and on-premises Hyper-V have been tested and are supported.
