Hi. On my new job we use VMware ESXi (Free version), but my colleagues use Windows on their PC's. I am allowed to use CentOS Linux, but I have no prior experience with WMVare. I now (today) have to install CentOS 6.x minimal on that ESXi server, so I am trying to wrap my head around whole ecosystem. What should I install on my CentOS 6.x so I can access/manage ESXi server and manage

Hi, I installed libvirt on CentOS 6 today, only to find I could create the volume, create the VM, but could not assign the interface to a distributed port group. I then downloaded the latest source, compiled, and it looks to be the same...unless its under a command I'm not recognizing? Does anybody have the great tip that is going to set me free? I hope? Everything we use is on the

Hi, I just compiled libvirt with ESX support. I can login just fine, list all the guests/domains but when I try to reboot or shutdown one of my guests/domains I get this error: virsh # reboot dbcluster1 error: Failed to reboot domain dbcluster1 error: internal error HTTP response code 500 for call to 'RebootGuest'.

Dear NUT users, I recently came across an interesting effort to integrate NUT with WMware ESXI, made by Ren? Garcia. This is still rough and young, but already providing a good support: http://www.networkupstools.org/download.html#_virtualization_packages We will work jointly in the coming months, Ren?, Aur?lien (from Eaton) and myself, with the support from Eaton (which is a VMware partner),

Hi, is there some easy way how to shut down vmware ESXi host? We have same apc smart 1500 and I passed usb port into one virtual linux, so it can monitor ups state via NUT.

Hi All We are currently testing our product using KVM as the hypervisor. We are not using KVM as a bare-metal hypervisor. We use it on top of a RHEL installation. So basically RHEL acts as our host and using KVM we deploy guests on this system. We have all along tested and shipped our application image for VMware ESXi installations , So this it the first time we are trying our application
