HAM and virtual devices

Hi experts

trying to get my head around the different use-cases and scenario for including virtual devices as part of HAM
Starting from a benefits pov, there are the ones i could think of

  • Improved visibility and control over virtual assets.
  • Enhanced cost management and budgeting.
  • Better compliance with licensing and security policies.
  • Streamlined lifecycle management for virtual devices.

Are other benefits that could drive this ?

From a SN technical setup i guess the way forward would be to create specific model for virtual devices in scope and create specific model categories.
Would it be best practice to also create a separate alm_virtualdevice table as information +lifecycle and status would be slightly different from hardware devices.
Anyone running HAM (maybe with SAM) for virtual units and can share insights?
