Vsphere Web Client 6.0 Download The Web

Do I need to upgrade VCenter server to 6.0 and download the web client from it is VCenter server 6.0 backward compatible Can I manage an ESXi 5.1 host with VCenter server 6 Or should I upgrade ESXi to 6.0 before the VCenter server Thanks.

Correct or Helpful buttons).

BTW: Dont use the web-client, even in vSphere 6, it is a mess.

But I dont have VCenter running in the lab to try that route.

Please consider marking this answer correct or helpful if you found it useful.

If theres no longer a standalone, then it seems I need to build a Win Server 2008R2 or newer for hosting vSphere Server just to be able to work with newer VMs This seem crazy to me.

So, might as well start getting used to it.

In 6.0 a lot of focus was placed on speed and responsiveness.

Then you just connect to VCSA from the web client using a web browser.

If the C Client were not still available, we would eventually be forced to switch to a platform that didnt leverage Flash.

I gotta wonder if the web-client isnt at least partly responsible for PayPal completing the process of dumping of vCenter Either give us one client (web-client) that works properly without Flash or dump the web-client until it is ready for prime-time.

I agree the C client is faster in general, and seems easier in some cases.

Im trying to use Web Client as much as possible since thats the direction the vendor is going.

Today, I have not had a single frustration with the Web Client.

Last week, I did have a few issues with datastore management, to the frustration level comparable to maybe when a large insect blows up on my windshield while driving home.

Over the last few weeks, heavy use of the Web Client on a couple of new projects has only caused me personally some very minor frustration, far less than many other daily life experiences.

For 2 ESXi hosts, it would seem extravagant for a business that incomes 10Kyear to have to buy an extra server just to manage a few VMs with the web client.

Ive looked for several days and this is the first mention Ive seen that didnt require vCenter Server hosted on an additional server (WIN 2008R2 or later) just to get access to the Web Client.

Vsphere Web Client 6.0 Install That One

However if you have access to an old beta copy of ESXi 6.0, specifically this version: VMware-VMvisor-Installer-6.0.0-1921158.x8664 You can install that one, browse to the servers IP and it will let you download a Web Client for Windows and OS-X.

Now I have to connect my vcenter 6.0 with localhost.

But for that, I need to install Vsphere Web Client in my developing machine.

But i couldnt find VSphere Web Client for 6.0 for my developing machine(windows 8).

But for Vsphere server 5.5, there was an external Vsphere Web Client 5.5.

Now how do i proceed pls guide me.
