Going forward, we plan to add more features to the fling including additional VM and host resource management actions, datastore operations, performance charts and metrics. Many many folks contributed to this fling: George Estebe, Etienne LeSueur and Kevin MacDonell our development team for bringing the Client to life, Jehad Affoneh for the proof of concept that inspired what you see today, William Lam and Kevin Christopher for their ongoing (and vocal!) guidance each step of the way, and our ESXi leadership team for allocating the time and resources to make this all happen. We’d love to get your feedback or if you have questions: You can find browser requirements, download and installation instructions from our Fling website: To log in to your ESXi host using vSphere Client, double-click the vSphere Client icon on the Desktop.
#Vmware esxi 6 client install#
Click Install to begin with the installation: Log in to an ESXi host with the vSphere Client.

Configure the destination folder and click Next: 8.
#Vmware esxi 6 client update#
The Client will work on ESXi 6.0 and 5.5U3 when the update release becomes available later this year. Select I accept the terms in the license agreement and click Next: 7.

#Vmware esxi 6 client upgrade#
The Client is distributed as a VIB that once installed, allows you to point your web browser at the host IP, and begin directly managing the host. VMware Software Manager makes it easy to find, select, and download the content needed to install or upgrade a VMware product or suite with the push of a button. Have you ever wanted to connect directly to your ESXi host via a web browser and take a quick look at the available resources on the host? How about checking on the status of the vCenter VM? Conduct host administrative tasks through the browser? Today I’m happy to introduce the vSphere Host Client fling, an HTML5-based UI client served directly from the ESXi host.
