Hi,
This has been asked before...
In order to troubleshoot a myriad of issues it is convenient to be able to see what type of hypervisor is used.
The VMware one or the Hyper-V one.. they both do react differently. Currently the only way to be sure on which hypervisor is used is to check the vmware.log for the string "Monitor Mode" and see if it has ULM (User Level Mode.. aka Hyper-V) or CPL0 (Current Privilege level 0 aka VMware hypervisor).
Can we get an indication - for the user - to see what engine is being used? Like in the about box?
Yes the log file is fine once you really need to go for some low level troubleshooting, but for the user to know what hypervisor engine is being used they shouldn't have to drop down to checking log files and search for some obscure string + explanation on what it means.
thanks!
