The solution involves a simple seven-step procedure that should take less than 5 minutes and is fairly simple to follow for even novice VMware users. This is not an issue when using the Windows-based vSphere client. With a single, deployed ESXi host (on Apple hardware) running VMware ESXi 6.0 U2 (without the vCenter appliance) using the newly-included VMware Host Client, it is not possible to complete the installation of OS X on a virtual machine. Their team explained how to workaround the issue until a fix is implemented in a future release of VMware ESXi and the embedded Host Client. With the information from VMware, we've developed a step-by-step guide for resolving this issue on affected systems. We reached out to VMware and they were quick to respond and then verify the existence of this issue. That meant customers with local Mac hardware had difficulty accessing their ESXi installation directly ( save for a number of possible solutions we've written about previously).Īfter a customer brought our attention to the problem, we were quick to verify it on several clean installations of ESXi 6.0 U2.

Previously a Windows installation was required to manage ESXi through a Windows desktop application. This client is a boon for many MacStadium customers that take advantage of a single quad-core Mac mini or a Mac Pro for virtualizing OS X as they can now access the ESXi host from any device through a web browser. VMware recently released ESXi 6.0 U2 and with it came the general availability of a HTML5-based web client for managing single-node ESXi installations.
