vCenter 6.7 installation showing "operating system not found"

Sachchidanand — Tue, 21 Aug 2018 13:11:20 GMT

While installing vCenter 6.7, it's showing OS not found whereas the ISO is mapped to the CD/DVD drive and "connect at power on" is selected. I am installing it on Esxi version 6.7.0 (Build 8169922).

Please see the attachement.

The vCSA ISO image is not a bootable image. In order to install the vCSA, map the ISO to your local PC, and run the installation wizard to deploy the vCSA on an ESXi host.

I see you are using VCSA , which is an appliance based

Installation

Download the VMware vCenter Server Appliance 6.7 ISO from VMware downloads: v6.7.0.

Mount the ISO on your computer. The VCSA 6.7 installer is compatible with Mac, Linux, and Windows. Browse to the corresponding directory for your operating system, e.g. \vcsa-ui-installer\win32. Right click Installer and select Run as administrator. As we are installing a new instance click Install.
