vCenter

  • 1.  vCenter Download

    Hi,

    I am unable to find the download option for vCenter Server Appliance, Whereas we have an active subscription for the vCenter and vSphere products. 

    for this I have opened a case and its more than eight days, I haven't heard from Broadcom support. 

    I have tried to select the "My Entitlement" and under this I found the only "OpenStack is there instead of vCenter".

    My Entitlement -> Site-Name (displays the VMware vCnenter Server), when I clik on the downloads option. 

    The page directs me to the "VMware Teclo Cloud infrastrucuture - OpenStack Edition"

    My Downloads- I also, doesn't find VMware vCenter in "My Downlaods".

    Thank you Wahyu,  I have downloaded the vCentre Server ISO, but this doesn't contain the installer.

    All it has the rpm files to update the existing vCenter Server appliance. 

    Whereas I am looking for the vCenter Server Appliance installer.

    Hi Mammadshah,

    In case you haven't found it yet (or someone else stumbles on this path like we did), we found our vCenter download:

    1. under the my Entitlements
    2. then VMware vSphere Standard (I know, I know)
    3. then vCenter Server Standard clicking on the name, NOT the download icon,
    4. then going to download icon there
    5. then opening the drop down arrow to the right of VMware vSphere - Standard
    6. then version 8 (I wanted 8.0.2, but maybe you want a different version), then wait for the page to load
    7. then VMware vCenter Server click "view group"
    8. that will finally give you the appliance iso which includes the UI installer. 
    9. To get the download link to be click-able you have to agree to terms and conditions.

    whew

    Live long and prosper fellow travelers

    Ty

    It sounds like you downloaded the wrong option. Which version of vCenter are you trying to download, and I will try and provide the link and name of the file.

    I am trying to download 7.0.3UL. If you could hook me up with a link that isn't entitlement based I'd be very grateful. I'm trying to restore a vCenter instance using the installation / backup export method.

    My issue is resolved. I called in to support again and this time they were able to provide me with the Site ID I was missing, get it registered and my Entitlements / Downloads working again. Bear in mind, this is an account without a current support contract. I got dismissed yesterday when I called in trying to do the same thing, got someone else and where I needed to go.
