Thanx for the response. One more follow-up question: I'm currently only 
running three ESXi 4.1 boxes (one large 710, two small 2950s) so VDSM is 
a bit overkill. Is there a plan for a simpler "VDSM Lite" on the horizon 
that would make more sense for an installation with only a few nodes? 
That would be attractive for me.

Again, Thanx for the response...
