Selecting the Server ISO i have already uploaded to the datastore and hitting OK. Scrolling down to CD/DVD drive, selecting Datastore ISO file hitting browse. Next page we select a datastore for the VMįinally a customize settings screen, with a warning about overprovisioning disk, selecting thin provisioned allows me to continue, and while i’m here, lets mount the windows server 2019 ISO. Taking you to page 2 of the new VM wizard, where i give the VM a name and select the OS type, note server 2019 is not in the list yet, but i am very confident that selecting server 2016 will have no issues whatsoever. Predictably this brings up a list of options for adding a virtual machine to ESXi, either via deployment or addition of existing VM’s, or via creation of a new virtual machine.

Logging in takes you to the ESXi home page with at a glance information about the server.Ĭlicking on virtual machines in the left shows we have no VM’s as yet, so no time like the present, lets make use of the helpful looking “Create/Register Virtual Machine” button. Throws a security warning, being a machine i “built” on my local network, I trust it and ignore the warning. Now as this is my home lab and i don’t have a planned infrastructure, my host DHCP’s, in a production environment running critical services, i would have assigned addresses, but for now that doesn’t matter. With iso in hand (on disk anyway) lets connect to an ESXi host and start building.įiring up Vmware Workstation and a n ESXi 6.7 hypervisor within, once booted we have a helpful message on screen – to manage this host go to. Ok, So lets get a Virtual machine running on ESXi, and what better to start with than a windows server? So I jumped on Microsoft’s evaluation center website and grabbed a copy of server 2019.
