Vm Ware ESX installation in VM Workstation 6.5














This is my Fifty First Post . I Choose some different subject as blog is dedicated to VMware ,Backup And Storage so i decided to post VMware ESX.
My PC configuration is AMD Phenomin Quadcore with 4GB Ram. and i Used Vmware workstation 6.5 for this use and i installed VMvare ESX 3.0.2 on this its worked perfect and i am able to installed Virtual Machines in this. Pls go through above screenshots.
More important thing is modifying the VMX configuration file. you have to add a line in this for that i am posting my entire VMX configuration file so if any body facing any problem they can compare the configuration file.

You have to add this line to your VMX Configuration file
monitor_control.restrict_backdoor = TRUE
after that as usual normal installations.
from Vmware infrastucture client i use SSHD for file tranfer to VMware ESX server. for that i enabled SSHD in VMware ESX ( /etc/ssh/sshd_config) add a line root permitlogin = yes
allmost you can run the show
