ESXi 6.7 and latercannot be installed on 6th generation Intel processors (Intel Family 6) based on the Westmere microarchitecture (manufactured since 2010). ESXi 8.0 Update 2– no longer supports Intel Sandy Bridge, Ivybridge, Haswell, Broadwell, and AMD Bulldozer processors (released after 2011)....
The best part of using this feature is that it allows you to have a seamless experience when executing scripts, even over your on-premises Windows and Linux operating systems, whether they be running on VMware ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V, or any other platforms. And the cost of all this?
Last week I was asked whether ESXi could run the KVM hypervisor as a Virtual Machine (often referred to as Nested Virtualization). I personally have not used KVM before or run it on top of ESXi, but I have heard of many folks successfully virtualizing KVM as a Virtual Machine on top of...
The next and last video shows how to convert a Hyper-V VM to run on a vCenter Server manged ESXi server. Conclusion Whatever your reasons for converting machines across virtualization platforms may be, it’s good to know that the VMware Converter does a pretty good job and, better still,...
Only supported on Hyperflex cluster on VMWare ESXi Note: For information on how to run Hypercheck on the Hyperflex HyperV cluster, refer toHypercheck: Hyperflex Health & Pre-Upgrade Check Tool - HyperV. When to Use The effective times to use the Hyperflex Health...
Nested virtualization of other hypervisors like Hyper-V inside a vSphere VMis not a supported scenario. However, running Hyper-V VM in a VMware ESXi VM is technically possible and, depending on the version, ESXi includes hardware-assisted virtualization as a supported feature. For internal testing...
Docker doesn’t create virtualized PC components like Hyper-V, VirtualBox, or ESXi. Instead, virtual machines create additional overhead by emulating PC hardware. Your virtual machines are essentially a bunch of minicomputers living inside of a larger computer. ...
The virtual machine names that are specified in the file should be the same as the virtual machine names on the vCenter server/vSphere ESXi host, and match what was used during profiling. -Virtualization Specify the virtualization type (VMware or Hyper-V). -Directory (Optional) The UNC or ...
However, running Hyper-V VM in a VMware ESXi VM is technically possible and, depending on the version, ESXi includes hardware-assisted virtualization as a supported feature. For internal testing, we used a VM that had 1 CPU with 4 cores and 12GB of memory....
If you look closely at this last screenshot, you will see that I am not only running Windows 10 Hyper-V within a VM on ESXi, but I am also running a Nested Windows 10 VM within this Hyper-V VM! How cool is that!? Not sure there are good use cases for this...
