VMware vSphere hypervisor is needed to create a virtual machine. A hypervisor, also known as a virtual machine monitor or VMM, is software that creates and runs virtual machines (VMs). A hypervisor allows one host computer to support multiple guest VMs by virtually sharing its resources, such as memory and processing. |
Creating a Virtual Machine with the New Virtual Machine Wizard.
To create a new Virtual Machine ( VM ) launch vSphere Client, select Inventory in the Main Menu.
Right-click any inventory object that is a parent object of a VM, (such as a data center, folder, cluster, resource pool, or host) to assign it a parent object for VM, and then select New Virtual Machine.
In a New Virtual Machine window on the 1 Select a creation type page, select Create a new virtual machine and click Next.
On the 2 Select a name and folder page, enter a unique name for the VM and select a deployment location. Wherein VM VM's name can contain letters of the Latin alphabet and any characters, numbers, signs and symbols and spaces. Click Next.
On the 3 Select a compute resource page, select the host, cluster, resource pool, or vApp where the VM will run and click Next. If creating the VM at the selected location causes compatibility problems, an alarm appears in the Compatibility pane.
On the 2 Select 4 Select storage page page, choose next:
a datastore or datastore cluster where VM's files should be stored inVM storage type, by default – Standard
VM Storage Policy, by default – Datastore Default.
a datastore or datastore cluster where VM's files should be stored in
Click Next.
On the 5 Select compatibility page, select the VM compatibility with ESXi host with ESXi host versions and click click Next. To have an access to the actual hardware latest hardware features, select the latest ESXi host latest ESXi host version.
On the 6 Select a guest OS page select nextspecify:
Guest OS Family – Linux
Guest OS Version – Other 4.x or later Linux (
хх64-bit)
илиor Other 5.x or later Linux (
хх64-bit).
Click Next.

Important: Do not change the firmware after the guest OS is installed. The guest operating Operating system installer partitions the disk in a particular format, depending on the firmware version. If the firmware 'll be changed, it will not be able to boot the guest OS. |
On the 7 Customize hardware page, configure the VM hardware and options.

You can leave the defaults and configure theVM hardware and options later. Some actions require that you power off the VM before settings'll be changedVM to be powered off for changes to take effect. |
Configuring VM Hardware:
CPU – Configuring Virtual CPU
configuratingallows to add, change, or configure CPU resources to improve VM performance.
Memory – Configuring Virtual Memory
configuratingallows
to addto add, change, or configure VM memory resources or options to enhance VM performance.
.New Hard disk* – Configuring Virtual Disk
configuratingallows
to addto add large-capacity virtual disks to VMs and add more space to existing disks, even when the VM is running.
New SCSI controller* – This setting allows to tweak SCSI, SATA, and NVMe Storage Controller conditions, limitations, and compatibility. To access virtual disks and SCSI devices, a VM uses storage controllers, which are added by default when you create the VM. You can add additional controllers or change the controller type after VM creation.
New Network* – Configuring VM Network
configurating. vSphere networking features provide communication between VMs on the same host,
between VMs onon different hosts, and between other virtual and physical machines. It is
ablepossible to select or change an adapter type, a network connection, and
whether to connect the network when the VM powers onnetwork connection if needed at VM startup.
New CD/DVD Drive* – It is necessary to select the device from which the OS will be installed (please use a Select File form to specify Datastore ISO File
to be selected in storage using Select File form). Set the Connect At Power On status
so that CD-Rom turns on at the same time as VM, to initialize CD/DVD-Drive at VM startup.
