VMware Support in Provisioning Manager
Provisioning Manager supports the VMware environment. Provisioning Manager has been tested on VMware ESX
Server version 3.5/4.0 and VMware ESX Server 3i version 3.5/4.1. To use Provisioning Manager in a VMware
environment, your virtual machine must be configured with a static MAC address.
If you need to configure a static MAC address after installation, perform the following procedure:
Note:
The following procedure applies to VMware GSX and VMware ESX prior to version 3.0. If you are running
VMware ESX 3.0 or later, you can use the Edit Settings option on the virtual machine to configure a static MAC
address.
1. Power down the VMware server.
2. On the virtual machine, remove the VMware server from the VirtualCenter inventory.
3. On the virtual machine, change the .vmx file according to the following:
●
Change the value of the ethernet0.addressType entry to static.
●
Change the value of the ethernet0.GeneratedAddress entry to ethernet0.Address.
4. Change the current MAC address of the virtual machine to a MAC address in the following range:
00:50:56:00:00:00 to 00:50:56:3F:FF:FF
5. In VirtualCenter, select a VMware ESX and select Storage.
6. In data storage locate your virtual machine.
