vCenter6 appliance install

[aiea96701]

I just installed vCenter6 appliance and was surprised that it is a CLI install.  Where do I obtain the GUI version of vCenter6?

You can install vCenter using GUI.

Download vCenter vCSA .ISO file form my.vmware.com

Mount or extract ISO file on any Windows system.

You need to have at least One esxi Host running to deploy vCSA on it.

See the Complete process to deploy vCenter appliance - Virtual Admin: Install VMware vCenter Server Appliance

vCenter appliance is Linux based system with vCenter components preinstalled, we just need to deploy vCSA VM and configure it.

Thanks,

Haridas

Mount the ISO and open vcsa-setup.html with Google Chrome (Firefox and old version of Internet Explorer was not working for me), then you get kind of a GUI that walks you through the installation process.
