This is my understanding as well, from conversations with VMWare staff, the "VMWare Way" to manage something like this would be to install a small VM running an OS of your choice for running the management tools such as vCLI, PowerCLI, vSphere perl SDK, etc, and use cfengine or other tools on that virtual management host to interact with and control the ESXi environment. From VMWare's perspective ESXi is more like motherboard firmware than an OS, not a place for installing 3rd party applications. _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@cfengine.org https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
