I'm very new to vmware. Actually this is my first attempt to install a trial version to hopefully test a little before purchasing in 2014. My question, I installed ESXI 5.5. I logged in and created my win 2008 r2 virtual server. I then installed (simple install) vCenter Server. I log into the web client and don't see any vcenter servers, unable to create a datacenter. Can someone tell me what I'm missing, or what I missed to configure or setup? Many thanks in advance for your help.
Hi ,
You might be logging with an local system Administrator credentials, That is when you do not see an option to add the Hosts.
you need to log in with the Admin credentials for the web client.
Username : Administrator@vsphere.local
Password : SSO master password.
Once logged in you will see the options to add the host and to resolve the other problem you have register the AD details
Thanks,

This worked for me! It would be great if upon log in, the web client gave some kind of hint for this though.
Hi
please go through this to make sure you have followed all steps.
