EMC Documentum not supported in VMware

How could this be?!  EMC, owner of VMware does not support its own product to run virtualized?  You got it daddy-o!

We are currently working on an upgrade of Documentum and we need a new home for the full-text index search module of Documentum, we asked EMC support if we can virtualize this piece, they told us no.  Reference support note 43361 and line #5 clearly states If Index Server is running on VMware, this is not supported.

I really hope someone at VMware or EMC  can collaborate on this and get it resolved.  I know that EMC recently purchased Documentum, but a top priority would be to make sure all of their products work together in harmony.

Another sad day in the vSphere for me. (no pun intended)
