• I installed VMware ESXi on my Cisco's UCS server but after that I don't get from CIMC.

  I installed VMware ESXi on my Cisco's UCS server but after that I don't get from CIMC. also, I am unable to ping the address IP of CIMC. Any help?

  I think that MMIC does nothing with your ESXi installation... it is OoB management for servers of the UCS.

  Check your config MMIC inside the BIOS again.

• Just installed vmware ESXi 4.0.0.  Also have Workstation 6.5 I have a few questions here...

  Good day, I am new and vmware esxi virtualization in general...

  I installed the server esxi 4.0. and I want to welcome a few virtual machines on this server. I tried the ViCLient and really like it. But this customer is a 60 day trial and it costs $ 1,000 per license, if I understand correctly...

  I also have the Vmware workstation 6.5 software.

  My main goal for this is to be able to import and export on the esxi virtual machines, create snapshots, export these snapshots, etc... I'm not too familiar with Workstation 6.5 so, but so far, it does the job in terms of export and imprting vms from the ESXi. But I would like to be able to browse the data store, create virtual machines on the esxi without having to create them locally AND export to ESXi...

  I would like to be able to create, manage, copy, create and import/export snapshots, to/from the esxi, but I guess you can't do all this using VmWare Workstation? I would buy the Vsphere CLient, but I'm not one who has a hand on the budget of COMPUTING...

  When you access download ESXi you license number appears near the top of the page. Enter this number in the Configuration tab under license vSphere client.

  Mezzanine

  Any help will be appreciated on how to go about the installation and the creation of a part of the bios initialization.

  Thank you

  When you press F6, you see the RAID controller that is listed as a boot option?

  Can we go to the MMIC BIOS configuration, Advanced tab and check the Option ROM (OPROM) this controller is activated?

  So useful, please note

• Install VMware ESXI 5.1: GROUP with no error reported

  Hey everybody,

  We are trying to install VMware on a server which seems full fill all the requirements of the material.

  We have tried both a CD and a USB key (who both successful install VMware on another server)

  and we had this problem:

  A few seconds after that, we started from the Flash DRIVE or the CD, we get a simple screen purple

  with absolutely no message and no error reported. Then, if we expect more, we get a black screen with a few

  green squares arranged randomly all over the screen.

  If someone who had the same problem could help us or if anyone has an idea on how

  to get some kind of error there reports, it would be very apreciated!

  Thx for your time and your consideration buddies.

  Please tell us what the hardware. Also please download and apply the latest firmware available for this material to the web site of the manufacturer. I had the exact same problem with my HP DL360 Gen7 and I applied the last Pack of Proliant HP who has paid the GROUP for me.

• Problem installing VMWare ESXi on PowerEdge 1950

  Hi - I am trying to install ESXi on a PE1950, with a disk 2 RAID 1, PERC 5i controller config, but when starting ESXi image I get the following error:

  "Could not find a device suppored to write the ESX Server 3i 3.5.0 image '"

  I tried to get this error with little joy.  This server was not pre-ordered with ESXi embedded - that is the problem?

  However elsewhere that I've seen posts where people have installed ESXi on older models of PE successfully.

  Thanks in advance

• Cannot install VMware ESXi 4.1 "cannot find the image of the installed system.

  Started in iso ESXi 4.1 downloaded, burned on a CD, CD, go to the screens, press F11 to install.  Immediately get the following error:

  -

  ---

  The installation operation failed!

  The installation operation encountered a fatal error:

  Cannot find the image of the installed system.  This is due to the image being not mounted correctly or the CD-ROM not supported.

  -

  ---

  The material is a system of handcrafted with Intel DQ35JO Council, latest version of the BIOS, Intel E6850 CPU, 8 GB of RAM, 2 SATA drives.  I know this isn't on the list compatible but is a 'white box '.  I installed ESXi 3.5 on it in the past and got it working, and I saw other success stories with this Board/CPU.  Yes, I have activated the virtualization mode in the BIOS and powered down/up.

  Here is what I tried:

  -Redownload VMware-VMvisor-Installer - 4.1.0 - 260247.x86_64.iso to ensure that it was not corrupt (2 copies, against perfectly)

  --Also tried another drive (IDE) CDROM

  -Created a bootable USB using uNetBootin 4.7.1 and booted from it

  -Switched SATA setting in the BIOS from AHCI to IDE

  I get the same exact error.  I searched here and everywhere and don't find any reference to this error.

  Help - all do you offer for my next step?

  Have you had a previous vSphere installed on your system?

  I had the same error on my 'white box' (in fact, it is black).  I used to run esxi 4.0 (u2) on my Acer X 3300 (6 GB, Quad Core AMD Athlon II).  Controllor internal SATA is not supported, but it allows me to use the box for normal windows task and ESXi is sitting on a SDHC 4 GB flash card.

  When I started my freshly burned ESX4.1 cdrom, I got the same error.   I thought that the fact that maybe there was an existing install on my destination drive (the flash memory card), and that the CD could not perform an upgrade.

  So, I tried the upgrade path (first trying to utility of the host and the .xml error message).  After reading the manual, I did the upgrade from 4.0 to 4.1 using the device of vMA and I must say that esxi 4.1 works great on my white box.

  Then I suggest that you try upgrading and see how far that gets you.

  Good luck (and a beautiful weekend)

• Cannot install VMware ESXi 4.0 on RAID1

  Hi all,

  I have a Dell optiplex 755 with 2 sata hard drives configured as RAID1 from the BIOS (hardware RAID). Ask VMware for a funny reason when installing, select a hard drive where to put all the files. The problem is that it asks me to choose from 2 hard drives instead of display a hard drive (RAID 1).

  I tried to select at least one of them as well as the installation continued normally, but when I reboot the PC machine don't specify "no operating system found".

  I also remove the RAID and tried the same setup. It worked smoothly until the end and of course even when I rebooted, it worked.

  Can someone give me advice I can do to allow hardware RAID VMware?

  Thank you

  Yes the RAID could be easy to set up - but not all RAID controllers are supported by VMware (so see you two discs instead of one, trying to install ESXi).

  The link I sent you before can be used to determine the hardware supported, etc.

• Driver RAID for Vmware ESXi 5.1 on Dell R420.

  My project is to install Vmware ESXi 5.1 on a Dell R420 with Raid1 configuration. The question I have after configuring raid1 in raid utility is created using the, I launch the installation of Vmware ESXi 5.1. What is ESXi 5.1 sees not the raid1 partition but rather see two disks as are they worn can't in raid1 configurations.

  I need to have this in raid1 config, can any who share an idea about my problem please or point me in the right direction.

  I did some research but nothing seems to help resolve this issue.

  Thank you

  Sheriff.

  Sorry for my previous response:

  DELL-Daniel My - when I boot in the BIOS of the controller, I see the raid in a raid1 configuration.

  Mgr dev you are right, I did research more when you all answered. I see the PERC S110 pilot was a software raid controller and thus the vmware esxi wouldn't work in a raid configuration 1 (software raid).

  Thank you guys for you answer and who helped me

• Problem with the start of VMware ESXi 5.0

  I just installed VMware ESXi 5.0 on a new Cisco UCS B200 series blade with two 300 GB hard drives configured in a RAID 1 mirror.  I went through and completed the installation of VMware ESXi 5.0 on this server.  When the installation is complete and the server restarted, he did not initiate the ESXi where I can change the IP address and VLAN.  Instead, I get this text string after the initial boot sequence that is shown in the attachment.  I have a guest who said Shell > do not know why I can not start correctly in ESXi 5.0.  Thank you!  Paul

  Hi Paul,.

  Looks like you boot to the EFI shell. What is the startup policy that you have configured on this server service profile? It should look like the one below.  If there is a problem with the boot order, you should be able to type "EXIT", then enter on the EFI shell to exit the prompt. If your startup is similar to the one below and you still experience this issue, try to downgrade and re - ack the blade.

  Let me know if it helps.
