Chapter 3 Installing and Configuring ESX Server on Blade Servers

Installing ESX on IBM BladeCenter

1 You must install ESX Server on the first IBM blade by performing a standard

CD-ROM-based installation. Follow the procedure described in “Installing ESX

Server” on page 22.

2 There are two different procedures for installing ESX Server on subsequent,

additional blades in IBM BladeCenter. Select and complete one of the following

procedures, based on your work environment.

! “Performing a Remote Network Installation of ESX Server with RDM” on

page 78.

! Performing a remote network installation by using a scripted, remote

installation. Follow the steps in the ESX Server 2.5 Installation Guide at

www.vmware.com/support/esx25/doc/esx25install_script_setup_install.html.

Installing ESX Server on the First Blade from the CD-ROM

1 On the first blade server, press these two buttons:

a CD select to associate that blade server with the CD and floppy drive.

b KVM select to associate that blade server with the keyboard, monitor, and

mouse.

2 After installing ESX Server from the CD-ROM, you are prompted to reboot the

server. The installer attempts to eject the CD-ROM, but fails. You can then

manually eject the CD-ROM by pressing the button on the CD-ROM drive.

3 Perform the ESX Server configuration steps in the VMware Management Interface,

as described in “Installing Additional Hardware on the Server” on page 61.

OTE You can use the graphical installer with IBM blades only if you are using a USB mouse

plugged into a USB port.

NOTE If you do not remove the CD-ROM, then the CD-ROM installation restarts once the

server boots.

NOTE We recommend you dedicate all Fibre Channel devices to the virtual machines

(VMkernel).
