#VMWARE VCENTER INSTALLER INSTALL#
The VCSA install can be done from either a Windows or Linux 64 bit host with network connectivity to ESXi. Sha256sum VMware-VCSA-all-7.0.3-18778458.iso Ubuntu host for deploying VCSA This can be decreased later for lab environments.ĭownload an evaluation version of vCenter, you will need a VMware evaluation account.Ĭlick on the section “Download VMware vCenter Server” and then download the “VMware vCenter Server Appliance”. Take note that the VCSA installer even in ‘tiny’ mode mandates the ESXi host have 10Gb of memory and 2 vCPU. You can install KVM on your Ubuntu host and then install ESXi on top of KVM. In this series of articles I am virtualizing on top of KVM. The first prerequisite is obviously an instance of ESXi. This will be done with the help of a KVM Linux guest (‘inst1’) where we will mount the VCSA installation ISO and run the vcsa CLI installer. In this article, we will deploy the vCenter Server Appliance (VCSA) on top of the ESXi server as its own virtualized guest OS. In my last article we took KVM running on bare metal and deployed an ESXi 7.0 host on top of it. If you have just virtualized the VMware ESXi server on top of KVM, the next step will be to install vCenter for its centralized control and additional feature set and management capabilities.
