Hi Anyone know where to get esxi-arm-ISO now?

Thank you for the helpful tutorial.

Hey VirtualizationHowto, I just watched your video and I must say that it was really informative and well-made. I was wondering if I could help you edit your videos and repurpose your long videos into highly engaging shorts? I can also make high CTR thumbnails for your channel

An enterprise server in iraq??? Damn what’s that like?? Lol 😂😂😂 speech to text is so much fun… 🤭

Brandon :). thanks so much for this, i'm just diving into Proxmox on my Protectli VP6650 box and its pretty sweet. I will have to link your video in my video i make !! Thanks again sir !

Good guide.

I like this vid. Good information on proxmox.

Is there anything with onboard integrated transcoding and 2x m2 with 2x 2.5 sata?

Thank you!

Hello, I was looking at your video channel. We may be helping a company that uses secure images to increase supply chain security and help cloud native development. Would you be willing to help try their software, make a video, and help show devs how to use their tools? This is not an offer, but just to start a conversation about your willingness to take on sponsorship. Please provide me with your email if you are interested. You'd have a chance to look at their technology and decide if it's the type of software that you'd be interested in covering in your channel.

Great video. I'd never heard of XCP-NG before. Could you possibly do a video on some of the best Open Source Solutions for managing KVM Hypervisors please? I may be about to inherit a lot of Red Hat based KVM servers and need a vCenter style tool to manage them. I come from a VMware background. I have heard about oVirt and Cockpit but am unsure if they're vCenter style or need to be run locallaly on each KVM server. Thanks!

Uptime Kuma may work on Windows Server

Nobody explained how to install ollama and run it in properite way ، it should be step's ، is docker important to install before ollama? I tried to install ollama alone and it doesn't installed completely!! I don't know why

Its great idea, thanks Brandon. I will test on my homelab.

How to run ollama3 in macos, i want public localhost to use nextchatgpt , can you share command this solution

this is awesome and can’t wait to try it. is there a mobile app for open webui?

Does any of this change if I want to deploy OPNsense/pfsense and use VLANs in there, too?

Thanks Brandon, nice review of what’s out there for local LLMs

😮I'm gonna try this now

I have gone the other way from having a semi-mini server to a Dell R730 that I have worked to power optimise. With 1 x Xeon E5-2697 v4 cpu and 128gb ram with 8xDC800 ssd's and a Quadro P2000 card, everything runs at 112W with proxmox, pfsense, unifi controller, truenas,plex and with Windows 11 it humms along at 124W. With 2 x Xeon E5-2660 v4 installed the same setup runs at 140W. The stock fans are quiet using a ipmi control script from truenas forum and the network switch fans are what is the loudest in the room and even they are barely a humm.

hello, do you know how i can download nutanix CE without a company email address?

Brother i'd love to know your suggestion about building a small data center for a cloud computing service company running with Proxmox as a core system. Is it a good idea to run with proxmox as the core system? Thank you!

I want to see an updated video for VLAN management using the new SDN features with existing externally managed (UniFi) VLANs including tagging the host os

Having been the CIO for two Tier 1 automotive suppliers and now owning an IT business, I know how things work in corporate America. You budget your costs every year and unless there is some compelling reason to make a change, you don't make a change. It becomes a cost of doing business, and change and all of the time lost, which results in extra staff or projects pushed behind all have a cost. This is the way things continue until someone pokes the bear. Broadcom tased the bear. It got the attention of the CIO, CFO, and CEO. The CIO now has the reason and can justify the resources. He has himself and staff that are all to eager to have the excuse to play with new technologies, and eager to take a bow for saving the company a lot of money. If they come back with something free, VMware will never see them back. In their greediness they have "chopped up the goose that was laying the golden eggs". Workstation as an olive branch makes no sense because home users are not paying for ESXi. Their IT department is paying $249 for workstation, now reduced to $199.

1. I've been in the IT field for decades and own an IT company. I can tell people that nothing can hold a candle to VMware. They had the first cost effective VM system and are still the leaders from a performance and functionality perspective. 2. I do not agree with your logic as to why the change to free for personal use. Workstation as an olive branch makes no sense because home users are not paying for ESXi. Their IT department is paying $249 for workstation, now reduced to $199. Workstation was spun off from the main group to a separate entity years ago. That doesn't take away from the fact that Workstation makes any competitor in that area look Mickey Mouse from a performance, feature, and rock-solid reliability perspective. If you make your living in the IT field, you cannot be annoyed by and spend your time working around bugs and peculiar behavior. 3. We also have ESXi free and paid out there. I always felt that free for commercial use was a mistake from the get-go. Initially, they wanted to charge a lot for backup capability and later made it much less expensive. However, the fact is you don't need their backup software to back it up, often we have not, and you can do it simply for free. What you gain by paying is an API that can work with backup software. While having the free version seemed like a bad move to me, it might have been somehow to their advantage to establish themselves as the standard in a market that for the first time had the hardware capable of cost-effectively leveraging virtualization. The processor capabilities that you see in the Intel processors came from VMware schooling Intel, who were only too eager to learn from them. VMware architects worked full-time at Intel. Today, that architecture is incorporated into other brands. When Hyper-V entered the scene, every advantage they talked about having over VMware was a disadvantage, and laughable to anyone who understood virtualization technology. We watched the dunces talk about the advantages of Hyper-V as if they understood what was going on, and Hyper-V over time incorporated the very technologies their FUD machine cited as disadvantages earlier as though they invented some new amazing technology. 4. Licensing for ESXi has always been strange. As soon as you wanted to add any management, their licensing costs didn't scale in line with the usage. This kept a lot of people in the free tier. There is a lot more to VMware for the enterprise than ESXi, and they have an incredible environment when you put the pieces together, which is why it has been cost-effective for larger organizations. More capabilities, less hardware, less man hours managing, and rock solid reliability. 5. I don't understand Broadcom's strategy after they bought the company. It is a stretch to chalk it up to naiveté on the part of people they've paid cubic cash to get it right and have a track record of getting it right to get the job. Their stock jumped 25% because of the huge licensing fee changes. However, as they partied, they witnessed the ominous handwriting on the wall by the finger of their user base and the world. Even IF their new licensing fees could be cost justified, a large percentage will react by investigating alternatives and implementing lesser alternatives as long as they can do the job. Decisions are made on more than logic. Example: Comcast has been stiffing us for decades, going up and up and going from $87/mo. to $199/mo. They always have deals that expire and then only have good deals for new customers. AT&T laid fiber in our area, cut the cost in half, gave better performance and symetrical up and down, making remote backups between our servers practical. Moreover, you can leave and come back at the same price and they will guarantee it for 2 years. Then Comcast comes by with a lot lower prices and the promise of going symetrical in the future. When I talked to the business owner across the street I said, "I don't care if Comcast comes in at 1/2 the price of AT&T, I'm never going back there." His response was, "Me neither. I don't care what they come up and won't even take their calls or open their envelopes." On the flip side, if you don't see making Workstation free for non-commerical use an olive branch, then what is it? One possibility is it wasn't going anywhere because people were using the alternatives and they stood to gain by getting it into the hands of future IT support people. If not these, then it is just as difficult to make sense of as their licensing moves as it is with ESXi. (When I bought 16, it was $249, not $199.) 6. To us, it does not make sense what Broadcom did. The part that we don't understand is that might be that they see the progression of the industry toward other products, it put VMware in a position to be bought, and this move by Broadcom is a "Hail Mary". Here is a quote: "Computer Associates International, Inc., and CA, Inc., was an American multinational enterprise software developer and publisher that existed from 1976 to 2018. CA grew to rank as one of the largest independent software corporations in the world, and at one point was the second largest." That's the official word. Reality: CA is where software went that was losing its future. CA were masters at keeping advertising, development, and support in line with revenues until there was no significant profitability and made a lot of money doing it. Because of this, they could outbid anyone else and convince stockholders to sell to them. Offhand I can't think of anything they developed unless it complemented something they had previously bought. Hopefully this is not what is going on with VMware, but this brash licensing move at a time when free alternatives are maturing makes one wonder.

How to install on Virtualbox ??

Bonjour, obliger d'acheter une carte réseau Intel de serveur, pour pouvoir installer Esxi 8. Heureusement Amazone est là ! ! Mais c'est vrai que la configuration et l'utilisation Esxi est plus facile qu'avec Proxmox.

Is it possible to share the custom ESXI image ? Perfect would be Version 7U3 with integrated community drivers.

It's "free" for now. After making you jump through all these hoops to download it, they then ask for all of your detailed personal info full name, address, multiple terms of service sign offs. Once they feel enough suckers, I mean people, have downloaded it and started using it, get ready for free to be replaced by fee.

Thanks for this video. I'm getting prepared to help upgrade an environment that has lots of ESXi patches listed as Critical. I'm hoping to take the best approach possible.

I don't suppose this Workstation version has a feature to simulate a TPM 2.0 module? That sure would be a helpful feature as my hardware lacks a TPM. It's not that old, but I'm not ready to upgrade everything as I don't know what the requirements of Windows 12 will be.

Hello, when trying to access the sphere client I get "no healthy upstream"? Not sure how to fix this. It worked at first but now I get that. This is on my Lab using Vmware workstation Pro. I can also get to the VMware vCenter Server Management with no issues.

You mentioned that Nakivo also supports Proxmox, but it was not showing in the list of hypervisors on the second step of your introduction. Am I missing something?

Where are the SATA slots for NAS😢

Im geting an error and cannot add the esxi storage. Is there some fw rules on esxi thats prvwbting this connection? Theres many rules but i didnt build it.

Thanks for this video, I love your channel and subscribed! ❤ Do you have any other monitoring system to suggest easy and nice like Kuma? I’m looking to implement something on my Raspberry Pi 4, thanks!

Thank you! for the video here, very useful. I have a question and hope you can answer. I have tried these steps to create a VM inside VMware ESXi and bare-metal, but both failed at the last steps, which required a reboot. it's terminating with the following message. 2024-06-14-18:55:26-UTC INFO Installing /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/foundation_layout-2.12.4+r.1704.5fa2273-py2.7.egg 2024-06-14-18:55:27-UTC WARNING Unable to detect directory with aurora [screen is terminating] Any idea?

Decided to purchase the Minisforum MS-01 on your recommendation (plus a few other sources). It has been a nightmare dealing with these people. DO NOT, DO NOT, DO NOT purchase via their website. It is not worth the savings over Amazon. Fortunately, I purchased using Paypal. I made my purchase and they replaced my billing address with the shipping address. I did not receive the promised invoice for my purchase. Sent an email correcting the glitch on the billing address and requesting an invoice. It has been 16 days and a Paypal dispute process. Today the product showed up but STILL no invoice. Considering every computer related warranty service I have had over the last ten years has required an invoice/proof of purchase, warranty service is going to be another horror story. Let's not mention, this thing could be stolen and I have no way of knowing. I cannot recommend you avoid Minisforum enough. What a terrible way to do business. Update: It has now been 21 days. All further requests for an invoice have been ignored. Escalated to Paypal requesting an invoice or refund. I do not recommend doing business with Minisforum and will not do so again.

I am trying to choose the home server. I was almost convinced to buy dl380 gen 10 with 2x intel 6152 CPU and 256gb ram. But then I watched a lot of videos how this server boots and I was disappointed. The sound it makes during boot is unacceptable for my home. I was wondering does it that loud when you load them very hard? alternative has been found as hp z8 g4 with x2 intel 8160 and 256gb ram. research I did make me think that this is just as good as dl380 setup I mentioned previously. I would like to have a advice witch one is better and how loud they are. Thanks!!!
