VMware vCenter Update Manager™ automates tracking, patching and updating for vSphere hosts and for applications and OSs running in VMware virtual machines.VMware vSphere vStorage APIs provide integration with supported third-party data protection.VMware vSphere Thin Provisioning provides dynamic allocation of shared storage capacity, enabling IT organizations to implement a tiered storage strategy while reducing storage spending by up to 50 percent.VMware vSphere VMFS enables virtual machines to access shared storage devices (Fibre Channel, iSCSI, etc.) and is a key enabling technology for other components such as VMware vSphere Storage vMotion®. vSphere Essential Kits are all-in-one solutions for small virtual environments that provide a license for 6 processors and 1 vCenter instance (vCenter Server for Essentials).VMware vCenter Server for Essentials provides centralized management and performance monitoring for all virtual machines and vSphere hosts with built-in physical-to-virtual (P2V) machine conversion and rapid provisioning, using virtual-machine templates.VMware ESXi™ hypervisor architecture provides a robust, production-proven, high-performance virtualization layer that enables multiple virtual machines to share hardware resources with performance that can match or exceed native throughput.Very confusing are those available clients here and there.VMware Essential Kit Key Features and Components VMware Essential Kit include the following key features and components: Just asking many questions since I'm starting to get familiar with those VMWare products and licenses things. So is there a difference between the Labs HTML5 client and a pre-installed one? I guess this HTML5 client is not already hidden somewhere inside the ESXi installation and upgrading will not automatically unlock it, right?Ĥ) OTH, I've seen many videos or screenshots, showing another Web front-end, maybe it was for the old v6.0 vSphere versions.
Will this HTML5 client work with vSphere Essentials, too? I've read the appropriate manual and it seems the procedure to install this HTML5 client is very complicated, at least from my view and limited knowledge. At least I've read this on those forums lately.ġ) Does this apply for the academic license, too?Ģ) The free hypervisor comes with the new pre-installed Web Client (I already updated to v1.16 available from the labs here ESXi Embedded Host Client)ģ) There is although the HTML5 Web Client which does not work with the free hypervisor for known reasons, downloadable here vSphere HTML5 Web Client
I assume I can upgrade the currenty installed free ESXi 6.5 Hypervisor to vSphere Essentials Kit 6.5 by just changing the license key.
