When there is a monitoring system is in place which tries to login several times minute into the root account with wrong password it will be locked forever.Ĭan't speak for everyone but for me at least I typed the password PERFECT the first time (as I said I can do this in my sleep). the >= 6.0 ESXi comes with a access blocker when you enter wrong password 6 times or so. trust me.ĭid you reuse the IP address? So was there already an ESXi running earlier with different password? IT looks daunting at first to install but it's not. you have to install another VM to use it but it seems a tad more stable. zoiks!? (scooby doo impression)Īlso just FYI look at fling for vCenter they have a separate client HTML 5 version that is slightly more updated than what comes with vCenter 6.5. I love vMware but sometimes they do some stuff that makes you say. I plan to take this up at the upcoming VMUG in Atlanta. but with problems I had with ESX hypervisor I am not going to even marginally show any interest. Client is what UI is and Web Client is the flash enabled version right? Or do I have it backwards.
VMWARE ESXI 6.7 INSTALL KEYBOARD MESSING UP UPDATE
UI I did notice that vMware is making it more useful so updates are coming via update manager, for now the Client works fine.
VMWARE ESXI 6.7 INSTALL KEYBOARD MESSING UP ISO
In the past I have installed the Dell ISO but I don't see a need for that now we aren't using the built in agents for anything, so why use the manufacturer stuff if it doesn't give us anything more? 6.5 U01 is working great (vCenter Appliance and hosts). 6.7 also requires that ALL hosts be 6.5 we have a lot of old hardware no way we can move to 6.5 compatible hardware any time soon, so 6.7 may LOOK good on paper but it's not a must have for sure. I did figure out that 6.7 hyper-visor host will ONLY work with vCenter 6.7 as well.
VMWARE ESXI 6.7 INSTALL KEYBOARD MESSING UP DOWNLOAD
what's it been 2, 3 years now?ĭid you download the ISO straight from VMware or did you use the ISO file provided by your server manufacturer? We're using the most recent version (ESXi 6.7 | | ISO Build 8169922), the official ISO straight from the HPE server. STILL waiting for Vmware to do something with UI on webclient so we can do update manager and extensions. I am using 6.5 U2 with ZERO issues, so whatever features or upgrades in 6.7 that are useful (if any) will have to wait.

or wait until ALL features of 7.0 are ready, why make this one so different?
VMWARE ESXI 6.7 INSTALL KEYBOARD MESSING UP UPGRADE
The thing that really bothers me is 6.7 is an incremental update yet you can't upgrade from any previous version, so why is it a minor build it should be version 7. same thing hosts wouldn't install and couldn't add to vCenter. I remember the same thing happened when vSphere 5.0 first came out. I could go to the IP of the host on web client fine, but vCenter just showed "time out waiting for vpxa". So on the next server install went as it should but when I tried to add it to vCenter, I couldn't do it. I guess it must have been something off with that host but it IS on the HCL. I setup another host with 6.7 and that one worked (yes same ISO), so maybe something weird on the host. I spent like an hour just going over every scenario that's why the angst post.

I put the password in notepad window copied it and pasted in vCenter pane and it said 'incorrect password'. I go to the console of the host can see the characters I am typing they were correct. I had 2 consoles up side by side, the Vcenter on one side and a window with DRAC access to the host in the other. I reinstalled it twice to the same host going slow the second time to make sure no mistakes. Also password is simple, Zxxxxx5! (starts with caps, random letters in middle, and end with number and !) Just to make sure it would let me use it. Keyboard layout is not a factor, it was odd. anyway neither here nor there, suffice to say that on that host I never did get it to work.

I will change the password later on when I log into the system, as the password I used was something simple to get the installation done.Nope, I have done literally hundreds of ESX installs I can basically do it blind. I was finally able to get past it and match my passwords.īut I had to do it very slowly for it not to mess up. This is a USB keyboard, I use it for all my new server installations, and this is the first time I've ever experienced this type of keyboard-related issue. I tried another identical keyboard, and still the same issue. I've created multiple USB bootable ESXi 6.5's and they all show the same issue. I also used a can of computer air duster to see if that would help. I swapped USB ports on the front of the server and rebooted the same issue. It is used on my main computer and swapped around to do server work here and there. I start typing, and it repeats the characters, and at times it will do it indefinitely, and I have to start madly hitting the backspace key or shutting off the server itself. When I get to the Root Password during the installation of ESXi 6.5.
