Create the first virtual machine on esxi

Source: Internet
Author: User

Use the vsphere client to connect to the esxi host, right-click the host, and select "create VM" from the shortcut menu. Of course, you can also choose to create a new virtual machine in the list.

After selecting the "typical" option, you can modify the hardware of each virtual machine to be set after the virtual machine is created. Here I chose "typical" installation,

Select the network used by the VM. Here we select the default status (here we can select the number of NICs, NICS, and configurator of the VM used by the VM) and then click Next,

Set the disk size and the specified disk location. disk backup includes three options, which have the following meanings:

    • Thick backup delay set to zero: create a virtual disk in thick format by default. Allocate the required space for the VM during creation. No data retained on the physical device will be erased during creation, but it will be set to zero as needed during the first operation from the virtual machine.

    • Zero for thick backup: the original data is excluded from the physical media when the storage space is created. In addition, when creating a disk, all data needs to be adjusted to 0 compared with other types of disks, which takes more time. This type of disk is the safest, because the previous data has been cleared by the disk block, and the first time data is written to the disk, the performance will be better.

    • Simplified backup: it means that the storage space is divided into 40 Gb. If there is no data in it, the physical storage space occupied is 0. As the disk write block is created, the thin disk starts to be small and then increases to the pre-configured 40 Gb space. Therefore, a simplified and standby disk only uses the data storage space originally required by the disk.

After creating a virtual machine, you must first prepare a CD or ISO file for installing the operating system on the CD. To modify the configurations of a virtual machine, click the "Edit Virtual Machine Settings" option to set the detailed configurations of the virtual machine. In the virtual machine settings, you can add new hardware, or Delete the existing hardware,

Install the operating system, boot from the optical drive, and select the optical drive settings in the virtual machine. The device types include client devices, host devices, and data storage ISO files, as shown in.

    • Client device: the CD/DVD drive device that uses the VMware vsphere client to access the terminal. to connect to the device, you must first turn on the power of the virtual machine, select "Connect CD/DVD" in the toolbar.

    • Host device: Optical Drive Device on the esxi host.

    • Data storage ISO file: an ISO file that can be accessed by esxi and is the easiest way to deploy the system.

After selecting the type of the device to be installed, check the "connect when the power is on: check box, select the disc boot after startup, and then you can read the disc. Next, turn on the Virtual Machine Power and officially install the system. Here we demonstrate the RedHat 6.0 installation. After the system is started, go to the following interface and choose install or upgrade an existing system:
