VMmark Submissions with vCenter Server 8.0

VMmark Benchmarkers,

We have identified a minor issue with the VMmark 3.1.1 Reporter functionality when running on vCenter Server 8.0. In order to submit compliant results on vSphere 8.0, you must perform the following steps prior to the benchmark run:

Enable SSH on your vCenter Server if it is not already
SSH to the vCenter Server as root
Enter the root password and press Enter
At the “Command>” prompt, launch BASH by typing “shell” and press Enter
At the BASH prompt, remove the executable permissions on the NTP configuration file by typing “chmod -x /etc/ntp.conf” and press Enter
Confirm the executable permissions have been removed from the file by typing “ls -l /etc/ntp.conf” and press Enter. Example output is shown below; there should be no “x” in the highlighted portion:
# ls -l /etc/ntp.conf
-rw-r----- 1 root root 152 Oct 7 19:25 /etc/ntp.conf

Please let us know if you have any questions.

Thanks,
David
