Server 2012 support?

My customer wants to implement View 5.1. The requirements of View are simple: Both the composer and connection server require Windows Server 2008 R2. However, the customer would like to have everything installed on Server 2012. Any idea if this a) will work, and b) if this is supported or will be supported in the near future?

I haven't tested it but I'm sure you could make it work, however according to the documentation it's not yet supported.   If I were you I would open a ticket with VMware support and inquire directly if they will provide support for 2012 in the event of an issue.

Server 2012 is not supported with View 5.1. For View 5.1 the customer must use Server 2008 R2.

http://pubs.vmware.com/view-51/topic/com.vmware.ICbase/PDF/view-51-installation.pdf - Page 7 - "You must install View Connection Server on a Windows Server 2008 R2 operating system".
