Description David Luong 2018-06-15 22:54:17 UTC
Document URL: 
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_cloudforms/4.6/html/installing_red_hat_cloudforms_on_vmware_vsphere/additional-configuration-vmware

Section Number and Name: 
3.1. Installing VMware VDDK on CloudForms

Describe the issue: 
Section implies we only support 5.5.  But according to support matrix, we support 6.0 and 6.5.  Please provide instructions and recommendations for install VDDK 6.0 and 6.5 according to their appropriate vCenter version. 

Suggestions for improvement: 
Have it reflect that we support VDDK 6.5 like we do in the support matrix:

Comment 6 Andrew Dahms 2018-11-12 21:24:31 UTC
Going forward, this bug shall be used as the central tracker for updating content on VDDK version support and installation instructions.

The planned direction is to do the following - 

* Ensure the Support Matrix outlines the correct list of supported versions

* Look to VDDK documentation for the official installation instructions where
  possible.
