Well this is new.  Microsoft have just released the Virtual Machine Manager Configuration Analyzer.

Essentially, you run the tool and and verifies your server configuration is in order to run SCVMM.  There are two installation “gotchas“.  Firstly, it’s 64 bit only I’m afraid, secondly You will need to install the “Microsoft Baseline Configuration Analyzer“.

Anyway you can download VMMCA from Microsoft Downloads, or check out the screenshots below:

PS:  Does anyone else smile at the acronym weirdness: VMMCA for SCVMM on MVSR2SP1  :)
