Start the vSphere Client and Log In to ESXi

When you connect to an ESXi host with the vSphere Client, you can manage the host as well as all of the virtual

machines that the host manages.

Procedure

1 Start the vSphere Client.

Double-click a shortcut or select Start > Programs > VMware > VMware vSphere Client.

2 Log in to the ESXi host as the administrator.

a Enter the IP address or host name you noted earlier.

b Enter the username root.

c Enter the password you set by using the direct console.

If you did not use the direct console to set the password, leave the Password field empty.

3 Click Login.

A security warning appears.

4 To continue, click Ignore.

This security warning message occurs because the vSphere Client detected a certificate that the ESXi host

signed (default setting). For highly secure environments, VMware recommends certificates that a trusted

third party generates. You can set up third-party certificates later.

What to do next

After you connect to the host with the vSphere Client, use the Getting Started tabs to import a virtual appliance.

Add Your First Virtual Machine by Importing a Virtual Appliance

After you connect to the host machine, you can add a virtual machine to the host. You can import or create

one or more virtual machines on a single host.

To add virtual machines to hosts, you can build a new virtual machine or import a virtual appliance from the

VMware Web site. A virtual appliance is a prebuilt virtual machine with an operating system and applications

already installed. The vSphere Client Getting Started tab provides steps to guide you through both options.

If this is your first virtual machine, VMware recommends that you import a virtual appliance.
