• Cannot download vSphere Client after patch installed

  I installed the latest patches for my two ESXi v4.1 servers using the vSphere Host Update Utility. the servers are now build 1363503.  In a web browser, when I go to the home page of each server to download vSphere Client, I get the following error: error HTTP 404 not found.  The link points to:

  http://vsphereclient.VMware.com/vsphereclient/1/2/9/8/9/7/7/VMware-viclient-All-4.1.0-1298977.exe

  What should I do to be able to download the latest vSphere Client for ESXi v4.1?

  It should be fixed soon. I think not many people noticed cela and use the former clients to connect to ESX.

• Unable to connect to esxi using the vsphere client

  Hello friends,

  I need a little help.

  a 2 5.0 esxi host and a vcenter than VM.

  My laboratory worked well for days, but all of a sudden do not know why I am not able to connect to ESXi hosts with vSphere Client.

  Error: The request failed because the remote server has taken too long to respond.

  Call "ServiceInstance.RetrieveContent" to "ServiceInstance' server '192.168.1.101' object failed.

  Yes, I am able to connect to vCenter server, when it is connected to vCenter and open the console of the virtual computer, nothing shows up, it's a black screen, as if the virtual machine is turned off. It is with all the virtual machines on both hosts.

  1. I thought that it might have to do something with vCenter and I tried connecting to Host individually which I wasn't able to.

  After completing a few KBs on vmware and some articles, I checked the status of the firewall on both hosts. (attached screenshot)

  

  Checked if my computer can talk to esxi host on port 80, 443, 902. all ports are accessible.

  Disabled the Symantec endpoint protection and checked. no positive results.

  Finally, I tried the ESXi web navigation browser host http://ESXi-IP-address which redirects me to HTTPS connection with Certificate error, when I continue with the cert error, loading of the URL guard and the host page doesn't appear as it should.

  This questions are on both hosts. :-(

  You guys can point me in the right direction to solve this problem.

  Thank you.

  Finally things started working now.

  The problem was with the configuration of the workstation's NETWORK adapter.

  The link on the NETWORK adapter speed was set to Auto negotiate (default), but the speed was detected as 100 Mbps instead of 1 Gbps and MTU has been set at 9014 which I defined manually long back.

  Things use to operate in this configuration that I have configured hosts with MTU 9000 and cisco SMB switch default Jumbo.

  the LinkSpeed of 100 Mbps is bugging me, after changing to 1 Gbps (manual setting) the card NETWORK has deactivated, and it reminded me to switch!

  So I put the LinkSpeed Auto negotiation, MTU 9014, stop the two hosts, restart the switch. restarted my computer.

  Since it uses for things were in a normal state.

  Even the question of the console (black screen) disappeared. :-)

• Where to download Vsphere client 5.1

  Please, where can I download the vsphere client - I know that I can download it from the url ESXI - but the esx host is on another country with weak network.

  You guys have no direct download link at all?

  Thank you guys

  Just use the IP address of the host and click on the download link.  The link is redirected to vmware does not host site, so you won't be pulling down of your offsite location.

• Where can I download vSphere Client?

  The vmware site must be one of the sites more frusterating, that I've never been. Everything is hidden and barried without information below value... you can I'm frusterated? I searched for vsphere client, and the ONLY thing that appears is the documentation. Even if I filter by products. Can someone post a link? I need for server 2008r2 64 bit.

  "Support and download" select VMware vSphere or VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi), depending on wheter you use paid or free edition. Then, follow the link to the product and download the vSphere Client after sign in with your credentials. You can also copy the link from the web site of ESXi (see post from Troy) and use it on a system with Internet access.

• Control an ESXi server with vSphere client on the internet?

  I work for a company who manage multiple servers, most of which run ESXi. There are times where the machine virtual which is y executed is insensitive, or the crash. When this occurs often we have no other choice than to see and access the console from a client within the network. I was wondering if it was possible for me to open a port like 12345 and move to the ESXi host, giving me access to his inventory and power VM States and all the usual stuff, only remote rather than within the network. I want to know if it's possible, and what are the ports are necessary for me to do. I am aware that you can install as a virtual machine and the remote client in this, but I prefer to keep things as they are. I just want access to host servers ESXi by opening the Client vSphere on my own machine remotely and feeding the external IP address of customers and manage that way. Thanks for your time.

  Hello..

  Yes, it is indeed possible... All the ports that are required to achieve this are listed in the KB below:

• Workstation / ESXi question - force vSphere Client to enter the CD-ROM drive

  This week I started to develop a practical system at home for me to learn VMware administration and systems.

  I installed ESXi 5 and Windows 7 Workstation 8, which is located in Windows Server 2008 on a server Dell T - 410 have a physical CD/DVD ROM drive.  In Win 7 I have the vSphere client installed and I get successfully to ESXi to manage and install other operating systems, which is where I'm stuck.  Note that, in my computer, I can take my Win 7 OS and in my computer has chosen to "eject" the drive with the OS I want to install.

  I am trying to install several virtual machines and have created two "containers" / "stubs" for these virtual machines (a Red Hat and a Win 2008 Server) but cannot get the vSphere Client interface to take control of the drive and pass it to the open Console.

  It is quite a matrix in the area of the drive options that is available.  What is the secret to be able to do this correctly, because all the videos I watched on YouTube where they are installing a system shows the OS that they install will ESXi very easily after choosing the CD/DVD-ROM drive... time to enter work station, which is where I'm NOT.

  How do I properly set up my CD/DVD-ROM drives in my computer so that ESXi installs the operating system?  I chose each drive letter and the option available but are unable to install the operating system.

  Thank you

  Yes, thats why I said what I did, and also because it's been a while since I've run ESXi in a VM and when I did I think the only way that I could install the operating system in a virtual machine when ESXi is a virtual computer was too use ISO images, which, of course, since it's my preference anyway it did not matter.  Now I only mention this because I don't remember for sure and using pictures is really the best way to go anyway.  Also, I don't have time to install ESXI in a virtual machine and go through the motions again.

• Add ESXi hosts to vSphere Client

  We have 7 servers ESX and ESXi 8 servers.

  Six of the ESX servers are sitting in a cluster and the last of them is located in its own cluster.

  It's nice to manage all 7 ESX servers in a vSphere Client.

  8 ESXi servers, I've been managing each with their own vSphere Client connection.

  Is it possible to create a cluster of ESXi in vSphere and add each of the ESXi hosts to this cluster of '? Or even a "cluster"?

  I tried and I get the following error.

  "License not available to perform the operation. ESXi 4 for Host 192.168.1.10 Server license does not include the agent for ESX Server vCenter. Upgrade the license. »

  We don't have a budget to upgrade the more liceneses. I don't mean to make HA or DRS on the ESXi hosts. I'd just like to see servers running on them for purposes of inventory without having to have 9 vSphere customers open.

  We have a license entirely vCenter Server so I think we should be able to add these ESXi servers.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  You must have at least vSphere Standard license for each host you wish to manage with vCenter. Free ESXi cannot be connected to vCenter.

• Slow downloading of vSphere client host

  I just installed a new free host ESXi 4.1 U1 and when I connect to the web server to download the vSphere client it is terribly slow, about 1 MB/s.  I went down the list here http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1004109, everything seems fine.

  On a different host (a BladeCentre with 6 blades), we lack vCenter Server 4.1 and when I connect the vCenter Server to download the customer is 35 MB/s.  Download client by the hosts directly is slow.  For comparison, I connected to another performer 4.0 host and the client download is fast, about 35 MB/s

  So my question, is there a reason, I should get these slow when connecting to some hosts directly performance?  Client download thing is annoying but can be tolerated is one thing, but I am the time I'm having problems when I start to run vms on that host?

  IIRC from the ESXi 4.1 vSphere Client is no longer included in the installation of the host. When you click on the link on the web page of the host, the client will be downloaded from the Internet.

• vSphere Client 5 - blocking of editing DVD error

  I installed ESXi 5.0 Standard on a Dell r710.

  Loaded the vSphere client 5 on a PC running Windows operating system.

  I was able to connect to the ESXi server from vSphere client 5 and create a Windows 2003 server and 2008 Server VM.

  I loaded the Windows 2008 DVD in the local PC running the Windows operating system.

  When I start the virtual machine and connect the DVD containing the operating system, I see the following error message:

  Failed to get the State of the lock on the CD-ROM.

  The virtual machine tries to read the DVD and then I get an error stating, did not find hard drive.

  This happens on both virtual machines.

  Any ideas on what is happening and how I can get the local DVD mounted to install the operating system?

  Thank you

  Yes, but the link also to vSphere Client 5.0 (not only vCenter), anyway try to download the latest version of vSphere client here:

• vSphere Client Ip address/host name

  Hello, newbie here.  I downloaded the vSphere client and in the process of setting up it request a host name or IP address in order to directly manage a single host.  I have no idea what hostname or IP address is it refers to.

  Thanks to all those who will respond to this newbie question.

  Yes, your esxi install on any of your virtual machine in your VMware Workstation during installation, you will get the details to specify a static ip address and once installed, when you want to manage this esxi in your vsphere client, that you must use the same username ROOT and password defined during installation and the IP address to connect through your vsphere client.

  Please mark this as correct/useful if that answers your query.

• VSpher client connection?

  Hello

  To make clear that I am a novice.

  I installed, ESX5.1 (bare metal), [VCenter Server, VSphere Client and client VSphere Web]-> Windows 2008R2.

  It is the second facility from scratch.

  In my first attempt, when all them above were installed, when I tried to log in using VSphere client, I could use the AD ID and I think what he connecterd me to ESXi through VCenter.

  In my second installation, I can connect via Vcenter using the Web client, using my username AD (ID of the administrator group). Everything works fine, I created data center and added ESXi.

  However when I click on VSphere Client, it does not accept my AD account and it only accepts the ID of the root for ESXi

  I don't know if this is what is supposed to happen?

  So the questions:

  1. in order to access ESXis using VSphere Client through VCentre, what should I do? I mentioned, that if I try to open a session using the client it does not accept AD ID

  2. How can I use webclient and no client (via VCenter)

  < added some information: I renamed localhost in ESX01 ESX and he joined the field in the context of troubleshooting and client NTP is configured on ESXi, not Windows 2008R2, but Jet lag is less than 30 seconds if not less >

  As I said I am new, however I am giving the foregoing experience of logical explanations.

  Thanks in advance.

  Welcome to the communities...

  I don't know if I understand your questions, I tried with my awakening in response to your questions

  1. in order to access ESXis using VSphere Client through VCentre, what should I do? I mentioned, that if I try to open a session using the client it does not accept AD ID

  You try to access your ESXi host or vCenter server by using AD ID?

  However when I click on VSphere Client, it does not accept my AD account and it only accepts the ID of the root for ESXi

  Have you checked that you access your vCenter and no ESXi host using vSphere Client?

  vCenter is a management software that allows to manage ESXi host. WebClient is only available to manage vCenter server and NO ESXi host

• Setting up a location of scrape persistent by using the vSphere Client

  Hello

  I have an application on behalf of data store when you configure the location scratch using vsphere client.

  This is the step that I have to perform to set up the scratch location and my query is

  I have to specify the name of the data store for step 10, as what I see through the vsphere client IE Datastore1 (vmfs/volumes/Datastore1/.locker - ESXHostname)

  OR

  What I need to specity the unique id that I am able to see in ESXi console that is to say 50060160c46036df50060160c46036df (/vmfs/volumes/50060160c46036df50060160c46036df/.locker- ESXHostname)

  What would be the effect? Configuration with the name of the data store for the vSphere client.

  You can configure the workspace for ESXi using the vSphere Client:

  1. Connect to vCenter Server or ESXi host using the vSphere Client.
     
  2. Select the ESXi host in the inventory.
     
  3. Click the Configuration tab.
     
  4. Click storage.
     
  5. Click a data store, and then select Browse.
     
  6. Create a directory named only for this ESX host (for example, .locker-ESXHostname )
     
  7. Close the browser to store data.
     
  8. Click Advanced under software settings.
     
  9. Select the ScratchConfig section.
     
  10. Change the configuration option to ScratchConfig.ConfiguredScratchLocation , indicating the full path to the directory.

      For example:

      / vmfs/volumes/DatastoreName /. Locker-ESXHostname

      
      
  11. Click OK.
      
  12. The ESXi host in maintenance mode and restart so that the configuration change to take effect.
      

  I ran a quick test on my test environment. You can safely enter data store, it will be automatically replaced by UUID data store when required restarting.

• VSphere client, cannot connect to Vmachine on ESXi5

  Hello

  I hope someone can helpme or guide me on this one.

  I already create two VMs on ESXi5 and their spouse on my domain, I can controlit from the console on esxi (via vsphere client)

  but... If I try to connect directly to the vmachine of my office via vsphere client I had a conection error

  I try with my domain user and the password

  I try with the checkbox "use the same windows credentials" and still the same...

  I thought maybe I give permmits to the vmachine directly from Esxi5, but I noticed that does not show in my area and I can't add my name of user or groups. I wonder if theres some how to join my esxi5 welcome to my domain and then can show my domain name such as an option to choose some users of group or individual userid

  (see attached)

  Thank you and have a nice day of departure (sound almost 07:00)

  You can join your ESXi your unter AD-> authentication services configuration.

  But that can only be allows you to assign permissions to allow users to connect to your server ESXi with the vSphere Client and do things over there, like create virtual machines or use its console your AD.

  To access the operating system inside the virtual machine remotely, use RDP, VNC, XDMCP, etc as a.p. said
