Hi all, I am running some Centos 5.0 x86_64 servers as host os for vmware server 1.0.3 on both Opteron and Xeon systems. They are all running fine and stable. But now I am in doubt to upgrade to 5.1. Has any one done that yet, upgraded his vmware hosts with Centos/RHEL 5.0 to 5.1 ? tia + best regards, matthias
Yohoo!>Has any one done that yet, upgraded his vmware hosts with Centos/RHEL >5.0 to 5.1 ?I'm running VMware Server 1.0.4 on CentOS5. My yum is updating weekly so meanwhile I have a 5.1. Still working fine. Of course, when you reboot you have to recompile the VMware modules (just start vmware-config.pl) after the reboot before the VMware Server will start. Looking forward to hearing from you. Christian Volker Technical Support Engineer ---------------------------------------- Ballincollig, Co. Cork Ireland

You still have to compile vmmon and vmnet modules from the vmware-config.pl script but that's normal. Notice also that vmware server 2.0 (in beta now) supports RHEL5/CentOS 5.x out of the box. -- Fabian Arrotin <fabian.arrotin at arrfab.net> Solution ? echo '16i[q]sa[ln0=aln100%Pln100/snlbx]sbA0D4D465452snlbxq' | dc -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I update my centos server to 5.1 and when I run vmware, it game an error with a message that I should run the setup program. I ran it and after that I was able to run vmware again.
