The number displayed next to the filename - 205afcb572ea557c2e63e3292b 47ed95 - is the MD5 checksum signature. After several minutes, and the time taken, depends on the size of the ISO image file, and speed of host processor and storage, a MD5 checksum signature will be displayed. Type md5sum WindowsNTServer40.iso in the SSH session window. When you have successfully changed folders to the location of the isos image file which has been uploaded, use the following command to check the MD5 checksum signature. Type cd /vmfs/volumes/esx001_local 1_vmfs6 in the SSH session window. Use the following command to change to the datastore1 datastore and isos folder.Įxample :- cd /vmfs/volumes/esx001_local 1_vmfs6 The VMware VMFS datastores are mapped here /vmfs/volumes. You will need to change folder or directories to the location of the iso image file. This can also be performed if you have access to the console.

In this series of basic VMware articles for the Novice, I'll be showing you the basic VMware skills required to install, configure and deploy virtual machines using VMware's FREE VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi). If you would like to read my Basic VMware articles, they are listed at the end of this article for your convenience. Quick tip, pay close attention to the path that you're uploading to, being sure to follow the guidance and get the ISO in to the right location.In my previous Experts Exchange Articles, most have featured Basic and Intermediate VMware and Virtualisation Topics. Connect to the VMWare ESXi host/datastore Enable SSH (either through the ESXi host settings, or from the console of the ESXi host) I've pasted in some useful links below rather than reinventing the wheel. You have to enable SSH access on the VMWare ESXi, and of course, it is wise to switch off SSH access afterwards. Uploading using an SCP client is so much faster and more reliable. The issues I generally see is the speed of upload for large ISOs. I sometimes come across issues with uploading to VMWare Datastores, so I've taken to, where possible, uploading using an SCP Client (for example, WinSCP). I'm not sure of the finer details of your setup, but hope this helps.
