VMWARE SERVER IN DESKTOP PC

[cadsri]

Hi......

This is srinath....i want to know which vmware server product like (vmware vsphere 4, ESI, ESIX) can able install in Desktop PC other than vmware workstation products LIKE (VMWARE WORKSTATION 6.0, 8.0).

Welcome to the forums!

Only VMware Server can be installed on an existing OS like VMware Workstation. ESX(i), which is part of vSphere, is a bare metal hypervisor and can not be used on top of another OS.

VMware Server is free to use.

You need a dedicated hardware. Look at the compatability guide to find hardware which will work.

The ressources needed can you find here: http://pubs.vmware.com/vsp40/install/c_esx_hw.html

Select Edit > Virtual Network Editor. In the Virtual Network Editor screen select the network that the virtual machines are connected to and uncheck "Use local DHCP service to distribute IP address to VMs".
