This is quite interesting, but I'm missing information on how much bandwidth the statistical information consumes. Are there any figures available ? This might heavily depend on the number of VMs and hosts and the level of detail. And in my opinion this has a bigger impact on the decision to use a central VC installation or not.

This is great, we have a single VC in London controlling VI in Zurich, Abingdon and two sites in London, this helps me understand the occasional issues we have experienced and will help me plan for challenges in the event of a WAN failover to IPSEC.
