SRM 5.x.x & VMs with relocated snapshot destination

Hi,

Can anyone confirm if SRM 5 now supports and works with VMs using a different datastore for snapshots? ie. snapshot redirection

I am looking to moving the snapshots for a number of VMs to a different datastore using the "workingDir=" flag in the vmx file. The snapshot LUN would also be replicated as with the datastore containing the VM itself.

thanks.
