Start the vSphere Client and Log In
The vSphere Client is a graphical user interface to vCenter Server and to hosts.
A login screen appears when you start the vSphere Client. After you log in, the client displays the objects and
functionality appropriate to the server you are accessing and the permissions available to the user you logged
in as.
Procedure
1 Log in to your Windows system.
If this is the first time you are starting the vSphere Client, log in as the administrator.
n
If the managed host is not a domain controller, log in as either
local_host_name
\
user
or user, where
user is a member of the local Administrators group.
n
If the managed host is a domain controller, you must log in as
domain
\
userdomain
\
user
, where
domain is the domain name for which the managed host is a controller and useris a member of that
domain’s Domain Administrators group. VMware does not recommend running on a domain
controller.
2 Double-click a shortcut or select the vSphere Client from Start > Programs > VMware > vSphere Client.
3 Enter the server name, your user name, and your password.
If you are logging in to a vCenter Server system that is part of a Connected Group, logging in to that server
connects you to all servers in that group.
NOTE Only previously entered server names appear in the Server drop-down menu.
4 Click Login to continue.
You are now connected to the host or vCenter Server system.
Stop the vSphere Client and Log Out
When you no longer need to view or alter the activities that the vCenter Server system is performing, log out
of the vSphere Client.
NOTE Closing a vSphere Client session does not stop the server.
Procedure
u
Click the close box (X) , or select File > Exit.
The vSphere Client shuts down. The vSphere Client is logged out of the vCenter Server system. The server
continues to run all its normal activities in the background. Any scheduled tasks are saved and performed by
vCenter Server.
Register a vCenter Server System with the vSphere Web Client
Before you can connect to a vCenter Server system, you must register it with the vSphere Web Client.
You can register multiple vCenter Server systems with a single vSphere Web Client. However, the
vSphere Web Client can connect only to one vCenter Server system at a time, unless those vCenter Server
systems are joined together in Linked Mode.
VMware recommends that you register a given vCenter Server system with only one vSphere Web Client
instance, rather than using multiple vSphere Web Client instances to manage that vCenter Server system.
