Virtual Edition and Supported Hypervisors Matrix

Virtual Edition and Supported Hypervisors
Matrix
Each hypervisor manufacturer is described in its own matrix.
Each matrix indicates which versions of Virtual Edition (VE) are supported on that hypervisor and what license
types (production or lab) are available for that VE version.
If you want support for SR-IOV, in addition to using the correct hardware and BIOS settings, you must
configure hypervisor settings before you set up the guests.
