Hi All,
I have to test DPM feature in ESXi 4.1 machine.I am using Intel Xenon processor model s3420 model. While enabling the DPM it is telling to enable the Wake on Lan.Network adapter saying that wake on Lan supported "NO".But the wake on Lan enabled in Server BIOS.
Any suggestion to enable the wake on lan using the Vsphere?

During boot of Server, check the nic bios (in dell case ) it would be ctrl +s .
Here is how to enable / disable and use Wake on LAN
1- You can either right click on the Start button or use the shortcut keys Win+X, and then select Device Manager from the menu that appears.
2- From the Device Manager, you have to click on Network Adapters, then select your Ethernet adapter from the list.
3- After the Ethernet adapter has been clicked on, you need to right click on it and choose Properties.
4- Next click on the Power Management tab. Three checkboxes will be displayed under this tab: “Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power”.
5- Check all three checkboxes, and click on OK.
6- Now click on the Advanced tab and select Wake on Magic Packet from the Properties list. In the Value box, make sure the chosen setting is “Enabled”; if it is not, go ahead and change it to Enabled.
