Introduction
VMware ESXi software is the next generation virtualization software that
comes integrated with Dell PowerEdge™ servers. By integrating VMware
virtualization, Dell has taken a major step toward simplifying deployment and
management of virtualized environments. Unlike traditional ESX Server,
ESXi Server does not have a service console, helping reduce the installation
footprint of the software and allowing the hypervisor to be directly installed
on the server's internal flash storage. ESXi ships pre-installed on certain Dell
servers. No additional software installation is needed on the server for systems
management. With minimal configuration, users will be able to monitor and
manage their virtualization environment.
This document provides an overview of the systems management architecture
in VMware ESXi software on Dell PowerEdge systems. Detailed steps to
install and configure the server and tools to manage the server are provided,
including troubleshooting tips and known issues.
For more information on setting up ESXi with your Dell PowerEdge server,
refer to the VMware ESXi Dell Solutions Guide at support.dell.com. For
information on managing the virtualization environment, refer to the
VMware documentation at

Overview
Common Information Model
To help reduce the system footprint and simplify deployment, ESXi does not
have a traditional service console management interface where Dell
OpenManage™ agents are installed. Instead, to provide the required hardware
manageability, VMware has incorporated standard Common Information
Model (CIM) management profiles into the virtualization software. The CIM
framework is an open standard that defines a framework on how managed
hardware elements in a server are represented. The CIM framework consists
of CIM providers developed by hardware vendors to enable monitoring and
managing of the hardware device. By representing the hardware elements
using standard CIM, ESX provides any management tool implementing the
