Service Console 服务器控制台 | Service Console is a standard Linux environment through which a user has privileged access to the VMware ESX kernel. This Linux-based privileged access allows you to highly customize your environment by installing agents and drivers and executing scripts and other Linux-environment code. 服务控制台是一个标准的Linux环境,使用户特权访问VMware公司的ESX内核。这种基于Linux的特权您可高度自定义您的环境,安装人员和驱动和执行脚本和其他Linux环境的代码。
| VMware ESXi is designed to make the server a computing appliance. Accordingly, VMware ESXi behaves more like firmware than traditional software. To provide hardware-like security and reliability, VMware ESXi does not support a privileged access environment like the Service Console of VMware ESX. To enable interaction with agents, VMware has provisioned CIM Providers through which monitoring and management tasks – traditionally done through Service Console agents – can be performed. VMware has provisioned RCLI to allow the execution of scripts. VMware的ESXi目的是使服务器的计算设备。因此, VMware的ESXi表现更像固件比传统的软件。提供硬件样的安全性和可靠性, VMware的ESXi不支持特殊的环境,如获得服务控制台的VMware的ESX 。为了使互动代理, VMware公司已经配置计算机集成制造商通过这些监测和管理任务-传统上通过服务控制台剂-可以执行。 VMware公司已经配置RCLI允许执行脚本。

Remote CLI 远程命令行
| VMware ESX Service Console has a host CLI command through which VMware ESX can be configured. ESX 3.5 Update 2 supports RCLI. VMware公司的ESX服务控制台有东道国的CLI命令通过VMware公司的ESX可配置。的ESX 3.5 Update 2的支持RCLI 。
| VMware ESX Service Console CLI has been ported to a Remote CLI (RCLI) for VMware ESXi. RCLI is a virtual appliance that interacts with VMware ESXi hosts to enable host configuration through scripts or specific commands.
Note:
o ESXcfg-info o ESXcfg-resgrp o ESXcfg-swiscsi VMware公司的ESX服务控制台的CLI已经移植到一个远程的CLI ( RCLI )的VMware ESXi 。 RCLI是一个虚拟的设备,互动与VMware ESXi主机,使主机配置通过脚本或指定的命令。 |
Scriptable Installation
脚本安装
| VMware ESX supports scriptable installations through utilities like KickStart. VMware公司的ESX支持脚本设施公用事业想通过启动。
| VMware ESXi Installable does not support scriptable installations in the manner ESX does, at this time. VMware ESXi does provide support for post installation configuration script using RCLI-based configuration scripts. VMware的ESXi安装不支持脚本的方式安装的ESX不,在这个时候。 VMware的ESXi确实提供支持后安装配置脚本使用RCLI为基础的配置脚本
|
Boot from SAN SAN引导
| VMware ESX supports boot from SAN. Booting from SAN requires one dedicated LUN per server. VMware公司的ESX支持的SAN引导。开机的SAN需要一个专用的LUN每台服务器 | VMware ESXi may be deployed as an embedded hypervisor or installed on a hard disk.
In most enterprise settings, VMware ESXi is deployed as an embedded hypervisor directly on the server. This operational model does not require any local storage and no SAN booting is required because the hypervisor p_w_picpath is directly on the server.
The installable version of VMware ESXi does not support booting from SAN. VMware的ESXi可以部署一个嵌入式的hypervisor或安装在硬盘上。
|
Serial Cable Connectivity 串行电缆连接
| VMware ESX supports interaction through direct-attached serial cable to the VMware ESX host. VMware公司的ESX支持的互动,通过直接连接的串行电缆的VMware公司的ESX主机。 | VMware ESXi does not support interaction through direct-attached serial cable to the VMware ESXi host at this time. VMware的ESXi不支持的互动,通过直接连接的串行电缆的VMware的ESXi东道国在这个时候。 |
SNMP 网络管理 | VMware ESX supports SNMP. VMware公司的ESX支持SNMP 。
| VMware ESXi supports SNMP when licensed to a VI Foundation, VI Standard, or VI Enterprise edition. The free version of VMware ESXi does not support SNMP. VMware的ESXi支持SNMP当持牌到VI基金会,VI标准,或VI企业版。免费版本的VMware ESXi不支持SNMP的。 |
Active Directory Integration 活跃目录整合
| VMware ESX supports Active Directory integration through third-party agents installed on the Service Console. VMware公司的ESX支持Active Directory整合通过第三方代理安装在服务控制台。
| VMware ESXi with a Virtual Infrastructure license and in conjunction with VirtualCenter allows users to be authenticated via Active Directory. In this configuration, users can log in directly to an ESXi host and authenticate using a local username and password.
The free version of VMware ESXi does not support Active Directory integration at this time. VMware的ESXi与虚拟基础设施许可证并结合虚拟允许用户进行身份验证通过Active Directory中。在这种配置中,用户可以直接登录到ESXi主机和验证使用本地用户名和密码。 |
HW Instrumentation 老仪器 | Service Console agents provide a range of HW instrumentation on VMware ESX. 服务控制台代理人提供一系列的老仪器在VMware的ESX | VMware ESXi provides HW instrumentation through CIM Providers. Standards-based CIM Providers are distributed with all versions of VMware ESXi. VMware partners may inject their own proprietary CIM Providers in customized versions of VMware ESXi. To obtain a customized version of VMware ESXi, you typically have to purchase a server with embedded VMware ESXi through a server vendor.
At this time, HP also offers its customized VMware ESXi Installable on www.vmware.com. Dell, IBM, and FSC will soon offer their customized version of VMware ESXi on www.vmware.com.
Remote console applications like Dell DRAC, HP iLO, IBM RSA, and FSC iRMC S2 are supported with ESXi.
Note: COS agents have a longer lineage than CIM Providers and are therefore more mature. VMware is actively working with its 250+ partners to close the CIM Provider–Service Console agent gap. VMware的ESXi提供硬件设备,通过计算机集成制造商。基于标准的分布式计算机集成制造系统服务供应商的所有版本的VMware ESXi 。 VMware的合作伙伴可能会注入自己的专有计算机集成制造商的定制版本的VMware ESXi 。要获得一个定制版本的VMware ESXi ,您通常需要购买一台服务器与嵌入式的VMware ESXi通过服务器厂商。 |
Software Patches and Updates 软件补丁和更新
| VMware ESX software patches and upgrades behave like traditional Linux based patches and upgrades. The installation of a software patch or upgrade may require multiple system boots as the patch or upgrade may have dependencies on previous patches or upgrades. VMware公司的ESX软件补丁和升级表现得象传统的基于Linux的补丁和升级。安装了一个软件补丁或升级可能需要多个系统启动的补丁或升级可能依赖于以前的补丁或升级。
| VMware ESXi patches and updates behave like firmware patches and updates. Any given patch or update is all-inclusive of previous patches and updates. That is, installing patch version “n” includes all updates included in patch versions n-1, n-2, and so forth. VMware的ESXi补丁和更新像固件补丁和更新。任何特定的修补程序或更新包括所有以前的修补程序和更新。也就是说,安装补丁版本的“ n ”包括所有更新包括补丁版本正1 ,正2 ,等等。

VI Web Access VI Web访问
| VMware ESX supports managing your virtual machines through VI Web Access. You can use the VI Web Access to connect directly to the ESX host or to the VMware Infrastructure Client. VMware公司的ESX支持管理您的虚拟机通过VI地访问网络。您可以使用VI Web Access中直接连接到的ESX主机或VMware基础设施的客户。 | VMware ESXi does not support web access at this time. VMware的ESXi不支持网络访问在这个时候。
|
Licensing 牌照
| VMware ESX hosts can be licensed as part of a VMware Infrastructure 3 Foundation, Standard, or Enterprise suite. VMware公司的ESX主机可以授权作为VMware Infrastructure 3的基础,标准版或企业套件。
| VMware ESXi hosts can be individually licensed (for free) or licensed as part of a VMware Infrastructure 3 Foundation, Standard, or Enterprise suite.
Individually licensed ESXi hosts offer a subset of management capabilities (see SNMP and Remote CLI). VMware的ESXi主机可单独授权(免费) ,或许可作为VMware Infrastructure 3的基础,标准版或企业套件。 |
