Created a Workstation lab similar to the VCP course...I'm using the Vcenter appliance as a standalone vm (meaning its not nested within one of the ESXI hosts.
Question is anyone have an idea on how to increase the size of the console size of the vCenter console? Using CLI to logon to the vCenter and make adjustments, monitor via vmstat/sar and other tools, the screen is just too small, and I'm pulling my hair out trying to make the display bigger as well as prevent the line from wrapping, a simple vmstat will line wrap, making it difficult to read. Thanks for any help on this.
I don't know whether it's possible to change the console screen settings. However, instead of using the console window in VMware Workstation, you may instead connect to the vCenter Server Appliance through ssh (e.g. putty).

Indeed great point and thought of that, just looking to avoiding having to install another app in this lab env...Thanks for the input, and at least I feel my question is understandable ![]()

FYI putty.exe (~500kB) runs as is, i.e. no installation needed.

Installed as you suggested and works much better, thanks for the push!
