The latest version from November 2006 is not certified to use with vmware and can give strange effects on the esx 3.5 server. So up until now there seems to be no solution.

I do have 2.2.1 version for 3.x, but it would be good if APC would release a pcns again for ESX 3.5. I could not find a version for ESX 3.5 on APC’s website.
