Hello,
I have been trying to build a VMWare Home lab on an Intel i7 processor, 1 TB hard disk and 4GB memory. Here is the scenario, I would like to Linux VM using this Hypervisor.
2. I am connecting using the Browser to this ESXi here is the connection using the browser
3. I am trying to create a Linux VM. I select the storage 'Assistense'
4. I am getting this error when trying to do this. What is the best method to build a home lab
What is the error you are getting ?
I will tell you how I've done my lab; it may not all work but you may find some things that give you ideas. Note that I am fortunate enough to live near a big university that sells off its old network gear on the cheap, so this setup is not as expensive as it may sound:
While this setup is for two physical hosts, you could just as easily to it for one. The use of Openfiler for the storage makes it much easier to manage from within vSphere.
