I have a Proliant ML110 G6 Server with a Xeon Quad Core X3430 CPU and 16 GB RAM
It was working fine with ESX 4.1. I decided to update it to 5.5, because I don't think 6.5 will run on this hardware. I ran Update and it worked without error. All that was on the ESX server were a CentOS 6.4, a CentOS 7 and a Windows 2008 R2 Server.
I started up all three hosts, but Open Console just gave me a Black screen.
Fortunately i Have NoMachine NX on both Linus servers. I can access both of them without any problem on my iPad, but Open Console is just Black.
I can do nothing with the Windows Server, because although NoMachine NX is installed on that, I have to first login and without the console screen it won't work. I can'y install a VCentre Server because I can't access the Windows server.
I searched with Google, and it seems I'm not the only one with this problem. I've tried upping the Video RAM to 32 MB - Makes no Difference.
I disabled and unloaded the Firewall, so it isn't Port problems, I've restarted all the components and the management agent, but still the same.
Has anyone managed to fix this? I thought of putting a 3rd Party Video card into the server but I;m no convinced that it would be a solution. The alternative will be to stop using VMWare and go back to dedicated servers.
All help will be appreciated.
