• Convert new Vmware server for VMware vSphere Hypervisor 3.5

  Hello

  Can someone tell me how to convert a more recent VMware Server to make it work with an older VMware vSphere Hypervisor 3.5?

  I just installed this version on an old IBM xseries 346, but I can't turn on the virtual machine. When you check the log it is said that the version is not compatible.

  Can you also tell me how to get rid of the warning of a 60-day trial. This version should be free?

  Thanks in advance

  You must go to the directory of the virtual machine before you can issue the vmkfstools command.

• Problem with the video for "VMware vSphere Hypervisor - install and configure.

  Hello

  In this page: https://my.vmware.com/group/vmware/evalcenter?lp=default & p = free-esxi5

  When you click on the "Installation and configuration" tab, we have access to videos for vSphere Hypervisor.

  But at the moment, none of the video can be shown.  I tried this in my computer at home as well as my company computer and none works.

  Someone who works for VMware please check this problem.

  Thank you

  OK, I just found what was "wrong".  These videos are "optimized" for Internet Explorer!   Yes, I tried on Firefox and Chrome on XP Pro and Win7, nothing worked.  Then after reading your message, I thought ' what happens if I try that? "  ... and indeed, the videos are displayed inside, I.e. I got suddenly a bad feeling, like I was back at the beginning of the 21st century!

  Come on!  Who would still do 'optimized' only website to know today?   I'm sure they will not be displayed on my Tablet either.

  I found these videos on YouTube:

  http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=_MofPJsG9gQ

  I think they are the same videos (but the quality is really bad... 360 p.: geez!).  Could someone confirm that they are indeed the same as those in vmware.com?  THX

  PS: Oh, on the section "Help", I found it at help | United States but I've seen no paragraph telling me how to report a problem on the website.

• VMware vSphere Hypervisor 6.0 NIC not recognized

  Hi all

  I intend to install VMware vSphere Hypervisor 6.0 in my own office, but the network adapter may not be recognized. My network card is Realtek rtl81111C, which is integrated in the motherboard Gigabyte. I want to buy a network card, could you suggest a good market (PCI, PCIe two OK) which is supported for VMware vSphere Hypervisor 6.0 for my office?

  Hello

  You can search for network cards supported here: http://www.vmware.com/resources/compatibility/search.php?deviceCategory=io

  If it's just for the study, you might also install VMware Player or workstation (the player is free for commercial nun) and run the vSphere Hypervisor as a virtual machine.

  Does not give you optimal performance, but to study it is enough, and you don't need hardware supported for ESXi.

• Can't active VMWare vSphere Hypervisor 6.0

  So I registered on the Web site, go to downloads > free downloads > vSphere Hypervisor and I downloaded the VMware vSphere Hypervisor 6.0 and installed on my server.  On the same page that the download link, it gave me a license key to use.  Then, I downloaded the client and connected to my server.  After login I get a pop-up stating "your evaluation license expires in 60 days.  There is a blue link that says: 'Assign a license to the ESXi host' but when I click on it, my browser opens and need me just to the home page of VMware.  If I click OK and that the box disappears, then there is no place on the interface for me to register the product.  What I'm missing here?  Screenshots included

  

  

  And I literally just thought to it right after I posted this.  I had to click on inventory > Configuration tab > features licensed > Edit > assign a new license key to this host.  Not sure why they bury him like this, but happy, what is done today.  Thank you

• The question whether to install Wins 2012 R2 before installing VMware vSphere Hypervisor 5.5?

  I'm new with VMware.  I have a DELL T420 server without an operating system in it.  I have a question, this first step, I need to install Windows 2012 R2 Datacenter to my server DELL T420, then the next step I will download the upgrade to VMware vsphere Hypervisor 5.5 2, is that correct?   I thank in advance for your advice.

  1. you must first download ESXi (hypervisor) and install it on your server.

  : Refer:vSphere 5.5 - How to install and configure VMware ESXi 5.5 - YouTube

  2. once the ESXi installation is successful, you can create a VM and then install windows 2012 R2 in this virtual machine as GOS.

• Can I use VMware vSphere Hypervisor™ with vSphere Client?

  It's the question next poped upward.

  -Can I freely use for my business need VMware vSphere Hypervisor™, and what will be the difference with VMware vSphere Starter Kit?

  and

  -Can I use VMware vSphere Hypervisor™ with vSphere Client software for free?

  Yes - it is freely permitted, but he he has limits and lack of features compared to the vSphere Essentials kits. Another thing to note is the absence of vCenter Server to manage multiple ESXi hypervisors with the free version. The backup API are, in my opinion, one of the main obstacles to the use of this.

• Upgrade VMWare ESXi VMware vSphere Hypervisor 4.0.0

  Hello

  Is it possible to upgrade 398348 for the new VMware vSphere Hypervisor, the free version of VMWare ESXi 4.0.0?

  
  How would I go all upgrade without losing the virtual machines that are currently in the data store?

  VMware ESXi hypervisor and share binaries of same exact. It is only the license key that locks or unlocks various features. Then switch between editions is basically just replace the license key.

  Because the binaries are the same for all editions, for example the 4.1 version update procedure is the same too. Just follow the link DSTAVERTS the Guide to upgrade (search for vihostupdate).

  PS: You can also take a look at http://blog.peacon.co.uk/wiki/Upgrading_ESXi_4_to_4.1 which includes the steps of the update

• VMWare View on VMware vSphere Hypervisor

  Hello

  VMWare View can run on VMware vSphere Hypervisor (free version)?

  As written, you have vCenter Server and vCenter does not free ESXi...

  There are only two solutions:

  • buy a package of vSphere with vCenter and view ESXi AND the licensing module
  • buy full them see packages that also include the part of vSphere

• How to install Dell OMSA on a free host VMware or VMware vSphere Hypervisor comments?

  We are virtualizing our 2012 R2 Windows Server and you have a Dell PowerEdge T310 server. We have installed vSphere hypervisor free version 5.5 on the physical server.

  Does anyone know how to install the Dell OMSA? I heard that it will not work if it is installed on the Windows Server R2 2012 host because of the virtualization layer.

  I read a few posts on how it's done, but I can't always get my head around it. I think I've also seen people install a VIB on the hypervisor vSphere itself?

  Can you please describe the General steps or point me in the right direction on how to run the OMSA? The Dell PowerEdge server has a RAID, and we must use OMSA to see a RAID controller unexpected sense errors if they are generated. We used to have a problem with consistency RAID and have had to start again before.

  He also seems to be an OMSA plugin for vCenter, but I don't think we can use vCenter because it's the free version of vSphere hypervisor.

  Hello

  There are a lot of articles and posts on how to install OMSA under VMware. If you encounter problems then please post an explanation of what you are having problems with. Here's a post I did on the subject. It has a link to a youtube video that includes step by step instructions:

  He also seems to be an OMSA plugin for vCenter, but I don't think we can use vCenter because it's the free version of vSphere hypervisor.

  Integration of OpenManage for VCenter requires always the OMSA agent must be installed on the hypervisor. Correct, it is not a free version of VCenter. No installation procedure who advises using VUM or VCenter should be ignored because you will not have access to these utilities.

  Thank you

• ESXi 5.1 HP Smart Array Controller P420i alarm

  Hello

  One of our hosts in VSphere Client VM shows an alarm in the condition of the equipment for the HP Smart Array P420i controller. I noticed that it was noted that this may be a false alarm and that's may be headed down to a problem of firmware version, but every example of which was accompanied by a screenshot of the error with the message firmware in the details. I don't have that or even nothing else in the details. This is the case, however, for control of the ILO for the host that he advises the controller is OK. I get a screenshot of the error below. Does anyone else have this problem?

  Thank you very much
