  • 1.  how to enter ESxi host bios remotely

    Posted Mar 30, 2010 05:48 AM

    Hello all

    I have an HP server with ESxi installed as a HOST and 3 VM installed on it .

    i can acess my VM from an ip adress in my lan (VMware vSphere Client- as you all know. )

    recently i got 2 extra HD for my server and after i pluged them in ... i want to enter the ESXI bios in order to configure them as a new storage in RAID 1 and then i will be able to add HD space to my 3 VM.

    can anyone explain to me how do i enter the bios for the VMware vSphere Client ? is it really an option ?

    and can anyone please explain to ( if you can get SCREENSHOTs that will be great ) how to configure the new storage (2HD ) in RAID 1 so the ESXI will recogize them as new storage.

    thanks a lot for all your help !!!

    Oded Kessler

    If you have HP-ILO enabled on your server you can use it to reach ESXi Management

    can't you use HP SIM page for RAID creation?
