VMware Vsphere Simulator 5.
Hello
My apologies if the question is redundant, but I just wanted to know if there is any Simulator available for VMWare Vsphere 5.
I want something that I can install on my personal laptop running Ubuntu 12.04 with 3 GB of RAM or my laptop desktop running Win 7 and 4 GB of RAM.
Intend to learn VMWare Vsphere/ESXi and improve my skills.
A run than a search with "Simulator" in the forums and found on a single person had a similar question in the year 2011.
It has been mentioned that you can install VMWare Workstation Trial Version etc., but can someone please direct me to a link where I can get more details?
Hello
There is no concept of a simulator, building a set of virtual machines to run the different components of vSphere (ESXi, vCenter Server, some 'shared storage') is the best approach, and you can run a whole environment on VMware Workstation in trial mode for 60 days.
You will need more RAM if you want to run the bases on a single system - there is a post on my blog that has a useful info and excellent links: http://vmwaretraining.blogspot.co.uk/2011/06/building-vsphere-home-lab-for-vcpvcap.html

Installation of VMware Vsphere on HP laptop
Hello
I'm pretty new in virtualization. I just have a question.
Can I install VMware VSphere 5.1 on HP laptop? It's going to be just for the learning of VMware VSphere.
More appreciated
Welcome to the community,
as you certainly know, ESXi is designed to run on the server hardware. However, it depends on the material (for example controllers of disks, network cards,...) if ESXi will run on a laptop. You can just try and if something is not found you can have a look at for example https://vibsdepot.v-front.de/wiki/index.php/Welcome to see if the necessary drivers are available and can be used to create a custom install image.
Another install ESXi directly on the hardware, it is also very common to run a virtual laboratory of vSphere, i.e. install Windows or Linux on your laptop and use VMware Workstation to build the laboratory.

VSphere API is available in VMware vSphere Essentials Kit?
Hello
TL; DR: I would like to know if the vSphere API is available in VMware vSphere Essentials Kit.
We evaluated VMware vSphere to build an environment very small test & dev to work. Since vSphere worked well during our assessment, we will buy vSphere licenses.
We only need to operate a single ESXi host and we don't much care our virtual machines because they are used for testing only. Thus, we don't need features such as vMotion.
However, take us pictures and we depend on the vSphere API, because we use pyVmomi to administer our virtual machines.
Because we only run an ESXi host, need for API vSphere vCenter but did not need features such as vMotion, I think that the Kit Essentials fits our needs. But I'm not sure it provides the vSphere API. If anyone can confirm?
Kind regards
Yes, vSphere API are available in the Essentials kit.

VMware vSphere Update Manager extension
Hello community!
I have a vSphere of VMware update Manager 6 installed in my vSphere6 env.
Update Manager works great and updates the hosts, but in WebClient in the tab "System Configuration" in the State of health services I observe "VMware vSphere Update Manager extension" in a critical situation.
When I open it I see following:
I checked the Update Manager and vpxd connects and found nothing suspicious.
No idea what this could be?
Problem solved after following KB:
Please make sure that you fillfulled all the FQDN, IP and dns short name in certificate request
My previous certificate did not short dns name that caused my problem.

Qual a difference between vmware vsphere, vcenter, workstation?
OLA pessoal,
Nunca trabalhei e com VMWare estou com doubt no deferred than tools vsphere, vcenter, workstation.
Preciso testar uma Solução virtualizacao. Vou rodar dentro Windows 10, where seja, NAO preciso UM hypervisor rodando no como Hyper-V server hardware.
So one size rodando no Windows para testar Doi servidores com some specific management.
Me cadastrei no site da VMWare para testar a versão trial, mas não sei qual software download.
ATT, Fabio
Para sua need you can use o VMware Workstation or VMware Player o.
Sober as diferencas, o VMware Workstation e uma Solução virtualizacao type-2, or seja, roda em cima of some system operational, alem do VMware Workstation we have outros exemplos como o VirtualBox e o Microsoft VirtualPC antigo.
JA o VMware vSphere, ESXi e uma Solução virtualizacao do Tipo-1, or seja, roda diretamente em cima material, e por isso some vezes e re-usable chamado, e alem vSphere, ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V and Citrix XenServer o o we have.
Por ultimo, o VMware vCenter Server nada but as UM software para os servidores com VMware vSphere, ESXi gerencia.

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.

It's recommended to upgrade to VMware Vsphere 5.5 to Vsphere 6 now?
Hi Experts,
I learned to download VMware vsphere 6 appears still in beta [Vsphere VMware Vcenter Server 6.0.0b]
https://my.VMware.com/Web/VMware/info/slug/datacenter_cloud_infrastructure/vmware_vsphere/6_0
This new version has had a very long beta period and validation so expect very few new issues compared to what happened with version 5.1
vSphere 6.0 supports only the CPUs available after June ((troisieme quarter) 2006?
Can someone please clarify when we upgrade to Vsphere 6 on the production environment. Maybe after the next update?
Hello
the best thing you could do is update your test & dev / pre-production for vSphere environment 6 If you have one, provided that you check first of all the components of your server in the VMware hardware compatibility list. This way you can find what would work and what wouldn't - it is important to test features like everything first before migration all at once and running on issues later.
Also sometimes it is possible to wait for the update 1 or 2 update that would have several fixes for stability and performance, etc. - all depends on what support contract, you have with VMware or if you use a free version where you could solve problems on your own (or with the help of the community forum)

VMware vSphere: Troubleshooting [5.5] workshop preliminary training
Hello
I was wondering if I would be admitted to the training and possibly be eligible for the exam of the VCP5 - VTC (VCP550).
I had no prior training of VMWare VSphere sanctioned or certification. Just funded by the learning company, self-training videos available of VSphere CIM and tinkering on my labs. But I have a couple of years of experience in the treatment of VSphere. I just thought it would be best to go directly to the VSphere rather than training with VSphere CIM workshop.
On the learning portal, the prerequisites are:
So basically, my plan is to:
1) attend the VMware Vsphere troubleshooting training workshop
(2) the exam for VCP 550
(3) obtain VCP - certified DV
Is this possible in my situation? Thanks in advance for your contributions.
Am I safe to assume that the workshop, the program will not be validated if the participant has the skills required to register? Is it on a basis "enter at your own risk '?
Yes, you are right, and don't forget mark answers as useful and correct :-)
