starting the host while virtual machines are configured to power on
automatically with the host.

Tools is installed in the guest.

configured with a static IP address lost its static IP after it was powered on under
GSX Server 3. For more information, see knowledge base article 1307 at

Features in Version 3
Here are some highlights of key features to explore in VMware GSX Server 3:
GSX Server 3 Security Update: OpenSSL 0.9.7d Patches
Patches are available for GSX Server 3 that update the version of OpenSSL used in the
product. The newer version of OpenSSL corrects security vulnerabilities and is posted
on the GSX Server Security Updates Web page at
www.vmware.com/download/
gsx_security.html .
GSX Server 3 users are strongly urged to download and install these patches.
Enhanced Virtual Machine User Access Control
On Windows hosts, a virtual machine runs as a user. You can specify the particular user
or let the virtual machine run as the user who powers it on. For more information, see
Authenticating Users and Running Virtual Machines on a GSX Server for Windows
Host on page 117
