vSphere ESXi 4U1 Embedded Query

2010-02-06T02:11:38Z

Is anyone out there running the ESXi 4U1 Embedded from Dell that includes the Dell Open Manage bits?

I am having a helluva time reflashing my servers that are running ESXi 3.5 Embedded. I am getting a variation of the PSOD during the loading of the setup program. The server in question is a Dell PowerEdge 2900 with 32 GB RAM, 4 GB USB Flash for embedded ESXi and 2 RAID 5 arrays (1.6 TB & 800 GB).

Anyone else running into any update issues?

VM automatically shuts down after P2V

2010-01-18T06:53:03Z

Dear All,

I recently installed VMware ESXi 4.0 and hot cloned a Poweredge Dell 800 (2 DCs) and 2600 (1 File server) using VMware converter 4.0 but when I power on the VM they all shut down by themself, I have disabled some adpters including the NIC but still the same thing.

I also tried ESXi 3.5 and VMware converter 3.0 with similar results. These servers have reached its end of life and needs to be retired since one of the drives failed once.

Please any link, suggestions on how to fix these will be highly appreciated.
