VMWare ESXI Can not access system configuration IP address show 0.0.0.0 not access to console Too.

Hi I am trying to access a VMWare ESXI configuration, but the console says that IP address is 0.0.0.0, if I try to enter by console, it says that Console has been disable. Is there a way to reset the configuration without lost the Virtual Machines that are running on the server. The server is a Dell Power Edge R520

Without access to the host's console (DCUI) your options are limited.

What may be an option, is to cleanly shut down the VMs from within the guests OS, and then restart the ESXi host.

If I restart thé VMWare, after reboot, do the virtual machines will Start automatically?

It depends on whether Autostart is configured.

Anyway, if you restart the host, and it still is not accessible, it may be worth reinstalling it. The installer has an option to preserve the VMFS datastore on which the VMs are stored, so that you can register them again after the setup/configuration is done.
