Software Requirements:
Vulkan Render Support for Linux Workstation
Workstation 16 Pro enables 3D support for Intel GPUs on Linux host to deliver DirectX 10.1 and OpenGL 3.3 to VMs using Vulkan renderer.
Note: Linux host operating system with a recent Intel/Vulkan driver is needed, Mesa 20.1 or later is recommended.
Sandboxed Graphics
Virtual machine security is enhanced by removing graphics render from vmx and running it as a separate sandbox process.
USB 3.1 Controller Support
The virtual machines virtual XHCI controller is changed from USB 3.0 to USB 3.1 to support 10 Gbps.
Larger VM
32 virtual CPUs
128 GB virtual memory
Note: Running virtual machines with 32 vCPUs requires that your host and guest operating systems both support 32 logical processors.
8 GB virtual graphics memory
Dark Mode
Workstation 16 Pro supports Dark Mode for optimized user experience.
Note: Requires host operating systems to be Windows 10 1809 or higher
vSphere 7.0 Support
In Workstation 16 you can perform the following:
Connect to vSphere 7.0.
Upload a local virtual machine to vSphere 7.0.
Download a remote virtual machine running on vSphere 7.0 to the local desktop.
Performance Improvements
Improved file transfer speeds (Drag and Drop, Copy and Paste)
Improved virtual machine shutdown time.
Improved virtual NVMe storage performance.
Improved Accessibility Support
Accessibility improvements have been added so Workstation Pro is compliant with WCAG 2.1 criteria.
