      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;no, you don't install a "vSphere", I think you mixed up the terms a bit.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;So:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;vSphere is like a product suite, that contains &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; - the vCenter Server for management&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; - ESXi as the hypervisor.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;To create VMs, do like the console of the ESXi tells you after installation.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Open a browser on another PC on your network and surf to the IP of the ESXi host.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;You can download the vSphere Client installer there and connect to the ESXi with it.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;With this vSphere Client you are able to create VMs.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;No , You can not install vSphere on the ESXi OS , for that you need another machine from where you can connect to this ESXi Hypervisor.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;According to me currently you have only ESXi installed on your PC.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Now you can create the virtual machine through command line for Power CLI with the help of below commands&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;EM style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;New-VM -Name XP_VM1 -VMHost $hostInCluster1 -ResourcePool ( Get-ResourcePool DevelopmentResources ) -DiskMB 4000 -MemoryMB 256&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/EM&gt; &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;But again you will require one windows PC from where you can connect to vSphere or directly the virtual machine through RDP. If possible you can create a virtual machine with Windows OS and used that as vCenter and then you install vSphere client and take advantage of basic feature offered by VMware.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
