Install VMware ESXI5.5 and vmwareesxi5.5 on the server
1. Download VMware ESXI5.5 vSphere5.5 VIMSetup
Http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_61c07ac50101gy64.html
(1) VMware installation package
VMware-VMvisor-Installer-5.5.0-1331820.x86_64.iso
(2) VMware Client
VMware-viclient-all-5.5.0-1281650.exe
(3) VMware registration code
VMware vSphere 5 Enterprise has no VM restrictions: 4Y0HJ-DY0E5-KZFMI-00056-IAEIK
Ii. Use UNetbootin to write the ESXI installation image file (VMware-VMvisor-Installer-5.5.0-1331820.x86_64.iso, vmware official website download) into the U Disk
3. You can download UNetbootin at http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net. (For Windows)unetbootin-windows-608.exe software. For example:
IV,Server InstallationVMware ESXI5.5
(1) Insert the USB flash drive to the DELL server.
(2) set the BIOS on the server and Enabled the Virtualization Technology. For example:
5. The installation steps are as follows:
The installation is successful. Unplug the USB flash drive and restart the machine.
Install the vmwareclient software (vmware-viclient-all-5.5.0-1281650.exe)
The server IP address is 192.168.2.31. Enter the user name and password. Configure the new virtual machine as follows:
ESXi_v55 -- VMware-VMvisor-Installer-550-1623387x86_64iso file, I do not know how to install
Compress the data into a CD and put it in the machine drive.
Or load the image through the Server Management port.
In the same way as the flat operating system, you do not need to set the ESXi installation. Press the prompt in the middle, press [F11] to confirm the protocol, select the target hard disk to be installed, and enter the root password.
How to install ESX/ESXi servers on VMware Workstation
The server preparing to install ESX/ESXi installs ESX/ESXi just like installing any Linux suite. After confirming that your machine matches VMware's HCL, you can start installation with confidence. However, some preparation tasks, including BIOS configuration, disk security RAID, and remote keyboard, mouse, and screen KVM configuration, were performed before the installation. Prepare the BIOS configuration of the server. In general, any server that you know Through VMware HCL can run smoothly, but do not forget to activate the BIOS before installing ESX/ESXi. Activation VT-X for Virtual Machine options in the server BIOS: Virtualization Technology is displayed in the BIOS. VT-D: displays VT-D or IOMMU in BIOS. although the planning and installation of ESX/ESXi in RAID is a Hypervisor, it is also an operating system and requires some security protection. Therefore, you must plan the storage location of the Hypervisor before installation, the local hard disk must use RAID to ensure the normal operation of the Hypervisor. A common name for RAID: Volume, that is, the combination after RAID is implemented. Virtual Device: agree with the volume, but one VD can only have one hard disk. IM: RAID1, usually Mirror. IS: RAID0, that IS, Stripping. IME: the meaning of IM + Enhance, usually RAID1 + Hot Spare. PD: Physical Device, that is, the Physical hard disk. Prepare the master KVM of the host in the IDC environment. If every installation or configuration of the server needs to run to the computer side, install the keyboard, mouse, and screen, not only is it troublesome, accidentally, the server's power supply or network cable will be knocked out, causing unnecessary troubles. In an IDC, the so-called KVM transfer device is usually used to transfer the output of the keyboard, mouse, and screen (collectively known as KVM) of this server. 1. KVM type: The most common KVM transfer device of a vswitch is the NIC. The common practice is to use a KVM switch and use a client program or a switch on a browser to operate the server with a given IP address. A kvm switch usually has a screen interface and a USB interface, and these interfaces are integrated into the CAT Network Interface. 2. KVM: The dedicated master control card is used to directly plug in the KVM over IP card in the network field on the server. You can configure a private IP address for the KVM over IP card, connect the card to a public switch, and you can directly operate the computer through the IP address. Most service products use this method. To install ESX/ESXi ESX on VMware Workstation, you must match the hardware of VMware HCL. Therefore, to install ESX on a general PC, you must be lucky, but you only need to evaluate ESX. In fact, VMware has added support for ESX in the new version of VMware Workstation 7 and later versions to allow everyone to understand the power of ESX, this allows you to install the Hypervisor again in a "virtual" environment, and you can also install the VM on it. Although the effect cannot be applied to the formal environment, at least the functions of ESX can be evaluated, such as HA, VMotion, and DRS. 1. Prerequisites for installing ESX/ESXi on workstation although VMware Workstation can be installed on most PCs, ESX/ESXi is a 64-bit Hypervisor, because some VMware Workstation machines must have 64-bit CPUs, And the CPU must also support VT-X technology to meet these two conditions to install ESX/ESXi on it. 2. the VM VMware Workstation created for ESX/ESXi has prepared specially for ESX/ESXi ...... remaining full text>
