automatic startup VM

Hi,

Hope anyone can give me some advice how to configure the automatic VM startup after server ESXI 4.1 has booted.

In VSphere client under "configuration", "Virtual Machine Startup/Shutdown" option I'm able to select the different VM.'s.

If I select the VM I want to automaticly start after VMware started, I select "properties".

I'm not able to change the settings, the "edit" button is grayed out.

Hope anyone can help me out. I'm running latest version ESXI 4.1 with all fixes.

Thanks in advance,

David

Use the "Move up" button to place the VM under "Automatic Startup".

As Andre said if you use the move up button to move the VM's around to Automatic Start. At that point your edit button will be available too.
