Power on the VC VM and allow it to boot from the CD, as with the DC VM booting from the CD will always
rebuild without any prompt.
After about 20 minutes you will be offered vCenter install automation. If you don’t need to practise the
vCentre installs go ahead and use the automation for the vSphere version you want, 4 or 5. If you just want to
manually install the vSphere components press B and if all you’d like automated is the install of the VMware
Tools press N.
When the automation completes the VM will be left logged on and configured with Autologon for your
convenience.
There are a few scripts that can be run on the VC; they are wrapped up in the Script Menu script on the
desktop. The menu script does not require elevated privileges but some of the other scripts will prompt for
permission to elevate when they are launched.
The same validate script that ran on the DC can be run on the vCenter server to validate it’s build and there is a
build log in C:\Buildlog.txt, both are available in the Script Menu
