For some reasons we will continue to use the vCenter 4.1 / ESX(i) 4.1 environment for a while.
My questions are:
Thanks,
Nelcon.
You can use Deep Security 8 with vCenter/ESx 4.1, but you must use vShield 5
ESX must be on patch 3 (build 702113) http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=201986...
so that guest VMs can install Endpoint from VMtools (yes guests have to upgrade VMtools)
(full disclosure I work for Trend Micro)

Hi,
As far as I'm aware, this could works however I deployed DS8 SP1 after upgrading my vCenter to 5 managing esx 4.1 hypervisors.
At this time, I have following:
One ESXi 5 running both
2 ESXi 4.1 (4.1.0 build 721871 which should be close Update2) with vShield Endpoint activated (installed) running
All 3 ESXs are managed by the vCenter 5.
In each protected machine;
This done, all DS8 features well work (anti-malware, web reputation, firewall...) only Log inspection is not available unless you also deploy DS agent in a VM (this is named coordinated approach).
My DS8 manager (Deep Security Manager ( )) and the SQL database are both located on another Vmware environment.
Hope this will help

Bernard
