    - VMware support is very hot in the market right now.

    - the SRM market share leader (EMC) announced full-featured support for VMware in ControlCenter 6.0, so they have to respond in some fashion.

    - doing end-to-end SRM in VMware turned out to be really, really hard: discovery, visualization, new forms of reporting at multiple levels, provisioning, et. al.

    I don't want to take anything away from the Symantec guys, but I want to make sure that they're not getting away with a bit of marketing puffery here.
