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

www.vmware.com/support/pubs/vi_pages/vi_pubs_35_3i_e.html.

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
