• VCenter Server with VMWare ESXi free 5 5

  Hi all

  Test the VCenter Server 5 Evaluation (60 day trial) to management all my 5 of VMWare ESXi (free license). It works with restrictions. These restrictions aren´t a problem for me. I need only to move (power off of virtual machines), clone, create templates for and organize my servers in a single interface VSphere Client. So, I would like to know what type of license of VCenter Server 5 woks if VMWare ESXi 5 free. Buy the VCenter Server 5 Standard?

  Another doubt is if VStorage works with VMWare ESXi free license I.

  Best regards

  Fabio Sobral

  Unfortunately the free ESXi hosts in vCenter management is not possible (except for the eval). The hosts of ESXi need a vCenter Server Agent license that is only available in editions 'paid' of ESXi.

• VMware esxi 3.0 cpu limitation free version?

  Is there a number of cpu, you can use the free edition with vmware esxi 3.5?

  We're going to get a server who is 2 x processors intel quad core and I wondered it esxi will see a single processor even if there are 2.

  Thank you.

  The maximum number of processors can use the free version of ESXi is identical to purchased versions - http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vi3_35/esx_3i_e/r35u2/vi3_35_25_u2_3i_server_config.pdf which is 32 hearts

• Free converter of VMware ESXi datastore

  I need to convert a physical server in a virtual machine using VMware converter and have a few questions.

  (1) can I P2V in a data store with the free app converter VMware ESXi?

  (2) I need the physical machine to be still in production after the conversion, until I get the configuration of the virtual machine, that's how the conversion or I lose my physical server?

  Thank you

  David

  (1) Yes, it works perfectly, I did it a few times

  (2) this is how it works. You can choose to turn on after creation or not, and if you do not connect the network you can turn on the virtual machine and use it at the same time as the physical

• Newbie question: ESXi 6.0 free vs vSphere Essentials Kit

  I currently have a server host running ESXi 5.5 (free version), accommodation mainly a lab with SQL servers and workstations Windows infrastructure.

  I plan to upgrade the vSphere Essentials Kit and I was wondering what are the additional benefits I would get paid Kit essentials ESXi free 6.0 vs.

  So far, I can think of the following:

  -Possibility to install on two additional host servers (however I don't really have this requirement for the moment)

  -Compatibility with VMWare as ALTARO and VEEAM backup software. (This would be beneficial)

  What are the other benefits Essentials Kit would offer a server environment unique host which would be sufficiently attractive to force one to go compared to the free version?

  Thank you for any comments.

  ArnieC

  Another great advantage will be the Server vCenter which adds lots of features and will help you manage all three hosts. Have a look here some of the additional benefits: http://www.vladan.fr/esxi-free-vs-paid/

  You can find all downloads for VMwre to https://my.vmware.com/web/vmware/downloads. What you might want to look for are the links "Download trial" to "VMware Workstation" and "VMware vSphere. BTW. is there a reason you ask for older versions?

  For Windows Server, see download Windows Server 2008 R2 Evaluation (180 days) from the official Microsoft Download Center

  PS: In the past VMware has provided a free license of VMware Workstation after you have completed the requirements to become a VCP - DCV (i.e. necessary training, more exam). I'm sure they'll continue to do that.

• VMWare ESXi 5.5 - VMotion & HA supported MDM physical or virtual

  Hello

  Hope someone can shed some light on the survey below:

  1. can you VMWare ESXI 5.5 HA and Vmotion supported with vmdk files located in front of multiple vmfs datastore 3/5? I have problems with VMotion or HA?
  
  2. can you VMWare ESXI 5.5 HA and Vmotion (not storage Vmotion) support with a VM scenario below:

  3 three nodes with iSCSI SAN storage

  VM1
  -Drive C-> vmfs Datastore1
  -Drive D-> RDM (is this support on a physical or virtual compatibility mode)
  

  VM2

  -Drive C-> vmfs Datastore 1

  -Drive D-> vmfs Datasore 2

  3. can you multiple access by 5.5 ESXi host the same data store (located on a San) vmfs using the free version of ESXi 5.5?
  Can I use this in a production environment? I have seen some companies test this on a non-production environment. Technically, it works.
  
  Thank you
  Paul

  Welcome to the community-

  (1) as long as the DRS HA cluster hosts see data even warehouses there will be no problem

  (2) once more, also longer than the nose can see data warehouses including the LUNS as the RDM it home should be without issue.

  (3) Yes multiple instances of the free version of ESXi can access LUNS shared - Yes it can be used in a production environment, but remember you can not handle the free hypervisor with vCenter.

• VMWare ESXi under Virtual Box tests

  Hi all

  Just installed VMWare ESXi under VirtualBox with a free license to evaluate it before you consider moving my XCP it based VMs. However, after installation I can't pull up a single VM.

  I just create a 32-bit VM Debian base and fixed the Debian netinstall ISO on the CD player. However, when I try to turn on the virtual machine, it runs for a few seconds before turning off.

  I have attached the log file.

  Any suggestions?

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  Andy

  The vmmcores.gz file shows that the EFER. The SCE bit is clear.  What explains the illegal opcode exception.  However, I don't see how EFER. CES has got to be clear.  What version of VirtualBox do you use?

• VMWare Esxi 5.5 Core dump to disk

  Good afternoon!

  I am facing a problem in VMware esxi free 5.5.

  The server is crashing and showed a purple screen with the message "core dump to disk. Site 1 of 1... ».

  I searched on the problem but have not found a solution.

  We are the migration from VMware to XenServer.

  In my environment, I have a San with Equallogic PS4100.

  Can someone tell me what could happen?

  Image attached.

  Thank you.

  It seems that you are affected by this problem:

  http://KB.VMware.com/kb/2059053

  https://communities.VMware.com/message/2301745

  Unfortunately there is no patch for ESXi 5.5 still. The solution is to replace the vNIC e1000 in virtual machines with one another as the vmxnet3 vNIC.

• Nested Vrsion Eval of ESXi 5.5 free ESXi

  OK, I'm playing with the advanced features of ESXi and I want to install a nested eval version of 5.5 ESXi in my free version of ESXi 5.5. Do a little research, I did the following:

  • Install VMware ESXi 5 on a physical host and configure networks, storage and other aspects as needed (already have this race successfully with other virtual machines running)
  • Configure a vSwitch or port group for the active Mode Promiscuous
  • Log Mode of Tech Support (ssh or ILO) and do the following to activate tweak nested 64-bit clients

    echo 'vhv.allow = "TRUE"' >> /etc/vmware/config

  In addition, I went to the tab my 5.5 ESXi VM options and is went to the CPU/MMU virtualization and tried both using Intel VT - x settings when I installed. In both cases, I received a warning when installing ESXi that she would not support 64-bit virtual servers. When I pressed forward in any case, I wasn't able to create a computer virtual using Windows 2008 R2 64-bit.

  So my questions are:

  -J' read somewhere that you may not be able use nested virtualization with the free version of ESXi. Is - this true/not true?

  -If you can make nested virtualization with free ESXi then what am I doing wrong? What are the settings to make it work. I wonder if I'm missing something.

  Thank you

  This parameter is required for ESX 5.0.  It is no longer necessary.

  Not true.

• Hot migration is possible with VMWare ESXi 5.1.0 without an ESX server management

  Hot migration is possible with VMWare ESXi 5.1.0 without an ESX server management?
  I wonder for a future issue, a scenario where a system administrator must build a Win2008 + DC on local storage, server
  then, once the physical box is integrated into the class network, the physical box is connected to the classified SAN storage.
  Is it possible to hot - migrate the server Win2008 + CC local storage to SAN storage at this time, with only the
  free version of VMWare ESXi 5.1.0?

  Welcome to the community - I guess that you are looking to do this, while the virtual machine is currently running - this is not possible without a management server, also called vCenetr, but all is not lost because you would be able spend the VM local storage to the San with the VM posered using the client storage management features

• Benefits of ESXi for free on ESXi 4.1 free U2 U1 5.0?

  I will be upgrading my box ESXi soon to a C2D 2.8 Ghz with 8 GB of RAM for a Phenom II x 4 965 with 16 GB RAM.

  I wonder if there is any advantage to go to 5.0 U1 on version 4.1 of U2 that I'm currently using (?) I just import .vmx and hard files from a backup to the new construction. I'll never need a volume of more than 2 TB is a lab at home environment, so he will never have to be upgraded to a paid version. The MB supports a maximum of 32 GB limitation of the memory of ESXi 5.0 free is not a matter of concern.

  So, I didn't win?

  I would like to look at these links:

  http://www.VMware.com/products/vSphere/ESXi-and-ESX/compare.html#understand

  http://www.VMware.com/support/vsphere5/doc/vSphere-ESX-vCenter-Server-50-new-features.html

  But for the version free USB 3and other new features in the virtual machine will probably be of interest to you.

  Other features that might be relevant:

  Host support booting UEFI

  VMFS5

  Hope this helps?
