I'm really new to these tools. I've been using Virtualbox to tinker with virtualization on my laptop for a while, but now I want to set up a 'legit' hypervisor to keep learning more. Ultimately I'm only planning on running 5 guests on a single CPU (quad core) system with 16GB RAM.
This is really just for personal tinkering, so I'm not looking for anything crazy performance-wise. I'm exploring ESXi 6 as an option, but I have some questions before I dive in.
1) Is ESXi 6 the right choice for me? I see other alternatives (e.g. Citrix, MS Hyper-V), but it looks like the community around ESXi is more robust, which will be important to me as a new learner. I've looked at feature comparisons, but so far it looks like the major differentiators are beyond what I'll be playing with as a new learner (e.g. I'm not going to be using direct device mapping, live running-VM migrations or anything weird like that; just hosting some pretty standard machines). 2) If ESXi is a good choice, is there any reason not to use the latest (v6 I think)?
Any reason to stay back with v5 for now? (Maybe better support? Maybe v6 has kinks they haven't worked out yet?) 3) From what I have read, I can do this for free if I'm just tinkering at home and not doing anything 'fancy'. The hypervisor itself looks straightforward , I just need to install 'vSphere Hypervisor', right? 4) Where I'm really confused is in the management piece.
I understand that the hypervisor just RUNS the guests, but not much configuration can be done on the hypervisor itself. You apparently need some other 'piece' to do the management (setting up guests and managing their resources). I think this piece is 'vSphere' , but I'm not sure. When I visit that page, I only see 'Try it for free' types of links, and no 'free' version.
But what I've read online has said that you can mange a few servers with limited numbers of CPUs/RAM for free. Is there a 'free' or 'lite' version of vSphere I should be looking for? Do I just install the free trial 'Demo' and keep using it beyond the 60 day trial? If so, I assume some functionality shuts off at 60 days - what do I lose at that point? EDIT: Wow, downvotes.:- Anything I could do to make this post more appropriate for this subreddit? I've been doing my research - just asking for some help from the experts. VSphere refers to the entire suite of VMware software around virtualization.
It's not a single product or download in and of itself. The bare hypervisor you would need first is called 'ESXi' which is currently up to version 6.0. If you are standing up a new environment, there should be no reason not to go with 6.0. VMware is still the biggest player in the virtualization space, so it's definitely a good place to start. The management piece you are probably referencing is called 'vCenter Server' - this can be installed either on a Windows OS or downloaded as a virtual appliance. VCenter requires a license to run for longer than the trial period, where as ESXi can continue to run VMs for free with a limited feature set after the trial period.
In this case, you would connect directly to the host running ESXi using what is called the 'vSphere Client' - you should be able to grab a download for this from your ESXi host. If you go to the main web page for you host once installed there should be some information including a link to download the vSphere Client, which you can then use to login to the host with root and manage it directly. I know VMware's web page can be horribly confusing if you're not sure what all their products are. Hopefully this provides some clarification - just respond again if you get stuck, and good luck with VMware! You do not need vCenter at all, however, it wouldn't hurt at all to grab a download of it to try it out and see how it functions. Again, after the trial period (60 days I think) you won't be able to use it anymore. Though if it's just a lab, reinstall it on a new machine and migrate the ESXi hosts to it.:) vCenter is easy to install as a VM running on the very ESXi host that manages it, so it's not a problem.
I would recommend installing ESXi, grabbing the vSphere Client, and then deploying vCenter to test it out. If you just use the plain vSphere Client, then you will need to manually connect to one ESXi host at a time to manage them individually instead of via vCenter as a central location.
Also note that the vSphere Client is being phased out in favor of the Web Client, which is a built-in component of vCenter. In the new version of vSphere (6.0) there are some features that require the Web Client (and therefore a vCenter install) in order to configure them. It might also help to have a look at this edition comparison for ESXi: The free version will have even fewer features than the Standard edition listed on that page. But that should help you see the difference somewhat. During the free trial period with full features, you can target the things on that page to check out before the trial runs out. Hope this helps. Great idea about installing vCenter on a guest.
Is this sort of VMWare's way of giving home users a 'free' version while turning a blind eye and not offering it officially? Or do you think that's a licensing gap they're eager to plug?
Also note that the vSphere Client is being phased out in favor of the Web Client The words 'being phased out' make me a bit nervous. Is there a reasonable possibility that I'll find myself in a position where I have a handful of VMs, but no way to manage them without shelling out for paid management software? There is no licensing gap there - vCenter is on a trial period without a license, and so is ESXi. Once the vCenter trial runs out, you can't add hosts to it anymore, and any existing hosts will disconnect (though the VMs continue to run).
However, if you reinstall vCenter on a new machine, then you can run it under the trial again for another 60 days. Not recommended for production stuff, but it's an option to run a lab setup. Right now, the line is that the vSphere Client will only be able to manage the features that were available in the older versions of vSphere (5.1 and older, I think). Will they eventually do away with it entirely? Maybe, but I think they will have to come up with some way to manage standalone hosts - people were already throwing a fit about that, and actually made VMware back off of that plan. They were already planning to have it so that you can't do ANYTHING with the vSphere Client on new hosts with VMs past virtual hardware version 8, but people screamed so much that they reverted it so that you can manage version 8 and older features with the vSphere Client. So my expectation would be that there should be a way to manage standalone hosts, even if that is not the vSphere Client in the future.
A couple of additions here: you do not NEED vCenter. It's a good idea, since many of the management features, and the highly toted 'web client' is only available via vCenter; but I understand starting with just the vSphere client direct to an ESXi box. This is a good way to get the basics down. When you do look into vCenter (most people do around the time they add a second host), then look into vMUG Advantage. It's a program specifically to help people who are learning and you can get a yearly subscription at a highly reduced rate, that will give you access to licenses for educational/lab use. For the FREE version of the 'ESXi hypervisor' - you need an account with VMware's website, and you'll be given a free license code for the single-server. The core management is not incredibly different than any type 2 hypervisor, with the obvious exception of logging into the system (need IP, username and password - all of which you set up at the console of the hypervisor).
Once you're in, you can create a new VM, deploy it, power it on and off, and do all the things you would expect from any hypervisor; just the system is actually running on another box. If you're coming at virtualization cold, there are some excellent free options that aren't limited, you get full functionality. XenServer is a fine product too, built on the Xen hypervisor and available to run for free. However, ESXi is probably the premier product in the space in my opinion, rock solid and from an innovator in the field. Essentially, though, you just install the Hypervisor on bare metal, then connect to it via a web browser and you can download a management app, after you set up the basics on the Hypervisor itself. From there, you can just configure etc from the app.
I haven't gotten around to trying the free version of v6, not sure how they manage it for a single hypervisor but probably via the app still. In general, VMware are moving to a HTTP-based management method, but that is (as far as I know) via vCenter Server as part of a full vSphere setup. VCenter Server is a central controlling piece that allows you to run multiple hypervisors as a single cluster. It doesn't come into play for free installs, but is essential once you go to several hosts with basic high availability and shared storage and the like; that would be a licensed setup at that point. But for home use or for cheapo single-hardware installs in a corporate environment you want ESXi and a free license, and then you manage that with a Windows client you can download from the hypervisor itself via HTTP after it is running. VMWARE has a s.tty introduction curve, let me answer you: 1) Is ESXi 6 the right choice for me? There are other hypervisors, but esxi is a solid and easy one.
Avoid Hyper-v if you are into installing non-microsoft OS, they don't have the same love and support. 2) If ESXi is a good choice, is there any reason not to use the latest (v6 I think)? Yeah, why not?:) The only thing that could make you go back to an earlier version is the hardware support. When installing esxi if something is out of support, you will have a warning saying so. Check the compatibility list first if you are using branded hardware: 3) You can do 3 things with licenses: a) Use free esxi license. You can grab one with a free account in vmware.com.
You will have basic usage without all the cool features, but you can create and use vm's basic management. In ESXI 6.0 you can use 2 CPU's with that license, but in.
Posted by on Oct 20 2015 (updated on Feb 3 2016) in. Sorry, this article had to be reworked since originally published, details for the reasons why. If you're building new, you'll certainly want to use the new hypervisor, since the serious NETDEV WATCHDOG issue that sometimes causes ESXi to hang is resolved. This article is about getting the fresh downloads going for your 'greenfield' installs. If you don't have a commercial license, and are instead using a trial, free, or, you won't be able to grab the 6.0 Update 1a ISO directly. Oct 30 2015 Update What I learned today is that you can contact VMware by email at vi-hotline@vmware.com to inquire about obtaining the ESXi 6.0 Update 1a ISO named VMware-VMvisor-Installer-6.0.0.update.x8664.iso they'll open a Service Request (SR#), and may be able to help you with a WebEx and get you that file earlier, much as they did for me, for free, under SR#0.
Or you can wait 60 or more days for VMware to allow anybody with any My VMware acount to access and download this file. I have given VMware constructive and thorough feedback about how silly this is. The old trick of signing up for a new My VMware account under a differerent email address doesn't help for getting 6.0 Update 1a either. I think you opening a ticket via email is likely the best approach, since VMware will then better understand/track the impact of this 60+ day delay.
But if you just want to get your existing 6.0 updated to 1a right now, worry not, got you covered, simply skip to section 1B below. A) Registered commercial license key users can download the 6.0 Update 1a ISO If you do want the ESXi 6.0 Update 1a ISO, and the full vSphere 6.0 U1a with vCenter Server Appliance (VCSA) for the FUN and useful stuff like vMotion, and you have a commercial license, here's the link for all that stuff:. The ESXi 6.0 1a hypervisor file you want: Name: VMware-VMvisor-Installer-6.0.0.update.x8664.iso Release Date: 2015-10-06 Build Number: 3073146 B) EVALExperience/trial/free hypervisor download/apply 6.0 Update 1a patch directly These steps have been tested, and work great in my home lab.
Before you begin, first, you need to review William Lam's: Disclaimer: This method assumes you can install the default ESXi Image Profile with no additional drivers or packages, else you may have connectivity issue after the upgrade. If you still need to customize the ESXi Image Profile before installation, you will still need to use something like Image Builder and then upload that to your online depot.and Andreas Peetz: Important note: Before doing this please check whether you rely on one of the NIC drivers (e.g. Realtek) that were blacklisted in ESXi 6.0. You then need to carry out an additional step before doing the upgrade - see my earlier post (section 2) for details.
For my, I didn't have to worry about VIBs: the stock drivers built into 6.0 are all I need to succeed. Even if I do need AHCI or NVMe VIBs in the future, I can just re-add such VIBs after similar future upgrades.
Open an SSH session (PuTTY) to your ESXi 6.0 (or ESXi 6.0 Update 1) server (if you forgot to enable SSH, ). Put your system into maintenance mode, or ensure you've set your ESXi host to automatically upon host reboot.
Paste the following 2 commands (cut-and-paste one line at a time): esxcli network firewall ruleset set -e true -r httpClient esxcli software profile update -d -p ESXi-6.0.0-1-standard. Type 'reboot' and hit return Here's how my upgrade from build 3029758 to 3073146 looked right after the 5 minute download/patch. And the other two files are the same vSphere 6.0 Update 1 (there is no 1a), and are available to all license types (commercial, EVALExperience, trial, free). VMware-viclient-all-6.0.0-3016447.exe VMware-VCSA-all-6.0.0-3040890.iso. For non-corporate license holders, such as home lab licenses, you may get the following warning when you try to download VCSA from the above download site: You either are not entitled or do not have permissions to download this product.

Check with your My VMware Super User, Procurement Contact or Administrator. If you recently purchased this product through VMware Store or through a third-party, try downloading later. I have just the for you, right here at TinkerTry! In summary, it explains that you may be able to use the option, followed by the 'View My Evaluations' option. If that doesn't work out because of a 'Your evaluation has expired. 0 days remaining on your evaluation' then don't lose heart, just logoff.
Then under a different, new My VMware account, choosing VMware vSphere.' Now you can VCSA.
Later on, you apply your that's suited for home lab users. I know, it's a mess, I apologize for VMware, even though I have absolutely no authority to do so;-) I'm getting a fairly smooth 75Mbps download speed tonight, to confirm the bits are flowing from Akamai CDN.

It would seem that David Stamen broke the news first, with a simple October 6th tweet: ESXi 6.0 Update 1a Released — David Stamen (@davidstamen) Oct 22 2015 09:45am EDT - My apologies for the errors in my intitial version of this article, the links and screenshots are being fixed, but right now, VMware seems to be having issues with taking new registrations for free trials. I'm unable to download ESXi 6.0 Update 1a myself, even under a brand-new MY VMware account. Oct 26 2015 10:50am EDT - I have been trying every day, with no luck yet. Today, same issue, still can't register for trial/download.
Oct 26 2015 07:00pm EDT - VMware Support is able to replicate the problem, under my Support Request # 0. I am still unable to obtain a ESXi 6.0 Update 1a ISO.
Oct 27 2015 10:50am EDT - I'm seeing a new issue today, pictured below. New message seen when trying to get to My VMware today, Oct 27 2015. Oct 28 2015 9:18pm EDT - VMware has stated they've fixed the server-side issues pictured above. However, they've also verified that EVALExperience license keys cannot be registered, thus, 6.0 Update 1a won't be available as an ISO to download. That's only for Commercial License holders. So installing ESXi 6.0 Update 1 off the ISO is the way to go, upgrading to 6.0 Update 1a later on using the esxcli method I outlined above. I got rather fed up with relying on the mercy of VMware support, to be able to get the ISO of the latest ESXi 6.0 Update 1b.
Heck, you can't even get the latest vSphere Client without a valid licensed copy of VMware, see related TinkerTry visitor willbill comments. So I went and put down my $399 USD for the Acadmic VMware Essentials, described. Oct 29 2015. Jul 29 2015.
