VMware GSX Server Administration Guide
(
VMware-gsx-<xxxx>.i386.rpm
is the installation file on the CD;
where
<xxxx>
is a series of numbers representing version and build
numbers.)
Note: If you are upgrading from VMware GSX Server 2, you must take a special
step before you install the RPM package. You need to remove the prebuilt
modules RPM package included in the version 2 release. To remove the
modules, type the following at a command prompt:
rpm -e VMwareGSXKernelModules
• Use the tar installer: Complete the following steps.
a. Copy the tar archive to a directory on your hard drive — for example, to
/tmp
.
cp VMware-gsx-<xxxx>.tar.gz /tmp
(where
<xxxx>
is a series of numbers representing the version and build
numbers)
b. Change to the directory to which you copied the file.
cd /tmp
c. Unpack the archive.
tar zxf VMware-gsx-<xxxx>.tar.gz
d. Change to the installation directory.
cd vmware-gsx-distrib
e. Run the installation program.
./vmware-install.pl
f. Accept the default directories for the binary files, daemon files, library files,
manual files, documentation files,
init
directories and
init
scripts.
5. Run the configuration program.
vmware-config.pl
Note: If you are installing GSX Server on a Mandrake Linux host, the
configuration program asks for the location of
lspci
. When that prompt
appears, enter the following path:
/usr/bin/lspcidrake
Note: If you use the RPM installer, you need to run this program separately from
the command line. If you install from the tar archive, the installer offers to launch
the configuration program for you. Answer Yes when you see the prompt.
Use this program to reconfigure GSX Server whenever you upgrade your kernel.
It is not necessary to reinstall GSX Server after you upgrade your kernel.
