VMware LEarning Platform: Compatibility checker

VMware Learning Platform is a cutting edge application that uses some newer features that may not be supported by your browser. VLP gives an option to run a compatibility check when user starts the lab.

This can be enabled by tenant administrators from Tenant Settings -> General options – “Auto run compatibility checker when user starts the lab”. If enabled, when a user starts a lab, the system prompts the user to choose whether to run a compatibility check. When run, the compatibility check shows and saves a report.

Below parameters are verified when a Compatibility check is run by a user:
