Support for vCloud Director 9.1

Any time frame when the update for Usage meter to support vCloud Director 9.1 will be released?

Also I would suggest to add vCloud Director and Usage Meter to the VMware Product Interoperability Matrix as currently when Usage Meter and VCD are selected nothing is displayed.

Hi leroyl, this will be coming shortly with a new update to Usage Meter. Hang tight as we are still working on the appropriate timelines. Thanks!

Yeah, I noticed this as well today. Smiley Sad

Will the new version still require deployment of new appliance, or will it be a simple update? It's getting tiresome to have many variations of the appliance stored in backup systems due to VMware retention policies..

Auto updating definition files would be a kick ass feature; Support for new products as XML files, so you only need new appliance if serious stuff change or bugs are found

Hi, andreaspa - this will be a hot patch, so no need to deploy a new UM! However, you must be on 3.6.1 for this to work. Cheers.
