VMFS-5 Update with vSphere 5.1

I just had a good read on Cormac Hogan's blog site.  cormachogan.com 

It refers to the limitation of ESXi hosts having an 8 host limit while using a read-only file for linked-clones.  Now with VMFS-5 and vSphere 5.1 it has been expanded to 32 using VMFS datastores.  If you are on VMFS-5 with vSphere 5.0 and View 5.1 you can already have 32 hosts using NFS.

This is really good news for the VDI users out there.
