Antivirus for VMware

[steinooo]

Hi all,

I seem to remember some chatter about VMsafe which was meant to be a technique by which antivirus vendors could develop an AV "plug in" for ESX hosts which escaped the need to install AV into each guest VM.

Has anyone here tried anything like this? What do you do about anti virus in your VMware infrastructure?

thanks

I'm not sure I follow sorry, how will ESXi hypervisor affect what I'm on about which is virus scanning on the host level (a level higher than the VMs)
