What is difference between VMware ESX and VMware ESXi?:smileyconfused:
ESX (sometimes termed as ESX Classic) had a mangement console operating system and had a significantly larger logical surface area. This was removed in ESXi, everything runs directly on the vmkernel, and is the only hypervisor available from VMware in vSphere 5.X and later.
