Installing, Configuring and Upgrading ESX Server

Note: When you are installing a guest operating system on a new virtual disk, you

may see a message warning you that the disk is corrupted and asking if you want to

place a partition table on the disk. This does not mean there is any problem with your

physical hard disk. It simply means some data needs to be written to the file that holds

your virtual hard disk. All you need to do is respond Yes. You also need to partition

and format the virtual disk as you would with a new, blank hard drive.

Migrating VMware Workstation and VMware

GSX Server Virtual Machines

You can modify virtual machines created with VMware Workstation 2.0 or higher or

VMware GSX Server to run on VMware ESX Server.

The virtual machine you want to migrate must be set up on a virtual SCSI disk. You

then migrate it to run from a virtual SCSI disk under ESX Server.

Be sure you have enough space on the VMFS disk where you store virtual machines to

hold the full size of the source virtual disk. In ESX Server the disk’s full size is allocated

at the time the virtual disk file is created. In VMware Workstation and GSX Server, the

virtual disk file starts smaller and grows to the maximum size as data is added. Thus, a

virtual disk defined as a 2GB disk may be contained in a 500MB file. When you migrate

the virtual disk to ESX Server, it occupies 2GB of disk space.

When you install VMware Tools in the VMware ESX Server virtual machine, you may

set up a new network driver. If you use the vmxnet driver, keep in mind that this

driver is not suitable for a virtual machine running under VMware Workstation 2.x or

under VMware GSX Server on a Linux host. If you think you may want to use this

virtual machine under one of those products at a later time, you may find it

convenient to do one of the following:

• Use the vlance network driver.

• If you plan to use the vmxnet driver, make a copy of the virtual machine before

you migrate it.

Follow these steps to migrate a virtual machine to VMware ESX Server.

1. Be sure you have access to the files in the directory that holds the source virtual

machine. You may be able to mount the source location, or you may prefer to

copy the files to a temporary folder on the console operating system.

If you are not sure where the source files are, open the virtual machine in the

VMware product you used to create it, open the Configuration Editor (Settings >

Configuration Editor). On a Windows host, click the name of the drive you want

to migrate. In the Disk file section, click Choose… to see the location
