Vmware Vi Client For Mac
Download and Install vSphere Client. Argox 214 plus drivers for mac. Go to the ip address of the ESXi host. (EX: ).Note: Ignore any security warnings that your browser might bring up. Download the vSphere client by clicking on the link. A.EXE file should start downloading. Run the installer (replace the directory path with the path to your.exe file): wine /Downloads/VMware-client-all-.exe.
Follow all the instructions in the installer. If you get a error because the.NET framework needs to be installed I will post about how to fix that later.
MOST of the time, a error will appear saying the the hcmon driver failed to install. DO NOT CLICK CANCEL. Navigate to the /.wine directory, and temporarily move it to your desktop. (Finder - Go - Go to folder - /.wine). Now you can click cancel, the installer will say it failed to install, this is fine, close the installer. Now you can move your.wine folder back to its original place (/Users/name/.wine). The vSphere client should now be installed.
Run Client and Connect to Host. In Terminal navigate to the folder where the client exe is located (not the installer): cd /.wine/drivec/ 'Program Files' /VMware/Infrastructure/ 'Virtual Infrastructure Client' /Launcher/. Then run the Client with this command: wine VpxClient.exe. If a screen opens up asking for a username and password then everything is working. In the Host Box, type the Host's IP address (the one that we used to download the installer). Then put in your username and password (default username is 'root').
