vi client and esxi

[markmyers]

Im reading about installing esxi and it is talking about the downloading of vi client to control esxi. I cannot seem to find a vi client to download or the cost of it past the evaluation period it mentioned.. Please point me in right direction

Open a browser and go to the IP address of your ESXi host. You should see a link to download the client.

Once you have installed ESXi - point your web browser to the IP of the ESXi server - there will be an option to download the client.

[Troy_Clavell · Accepted solution]

point your favorite web browser to the IP or FQDN of your ESX(i) host, there you can download the client.

Troy is there a cost to this client

[Troy_Clavell]

no cost; the client is bundled into the ESX(i) host and is free. You can use it to manage your Host.

Troy,

Does the client give possiblities of taking screenshots of several VMs (or all) on the screen? If not, is there any other way of taking screenshots of those VMs on an ESXi 4.1 system?

Thanks,

spider
