Hello Guys,
I am doing a trial of vSphere 5 Essentials Plus. But I am unsure where to start. I already have 3 servers running VMware ESXi 5.5 and managing them separately using vSphere client. I am using free edition. Now I see VMware offered really good prices model in Essentials and Essentials Plus. Please guide me (as I am unable to locate any kind of guide so far). Some specific questions are,
1. Do I need a separate server to make a controller (to install vCenter Server) or I can install it on any slave node?
2. Can I use one of the VM to install Windows and vCenter Client software on it? Then can I use use same node to deploy virtual machines (using available resources)?
3. What are the minimum requirements for lab setup?
4. Where I can get documentation for VCP?
Regards,
Hassan
