XenDesktop 5.5 and vSphere 5

Yes it is (almost) fully supported. Including the Virtual Distributed Switch (vDswitch). However you do need to upgrade the Provisioning Server (PVS) to v6 to support it as 5.6 fails if vDwitches are used.

If you are using the Machine Creation Service (MCS) then you don't need to do anything. However if you upgrade VMWare tools, you need to re-install the Citrix Virtual Desktop Agent VDA.

There is a short whitepaper here: http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX130681

We will be upgrading today.
