In the service console window on the Sun Blade X6240 server module, identify the available network configuration alternatives. See FIGURE 6-1 for ESX Server 3.5 Update 1. FIGURE 6-1 ESX Server 3.5 Update 1 Network Configuration Dialog Box 11. Update the ESX Server 3.5 software with the latest updates and patches, if necessary. Veeam FastSCP is the de facto standard for ESX file management, now with support for ESXi. FastSCP allows users to copy files from ESX to Windows, Windows to ESX, or directly ESX to ESX. FastSCP is the simplest and fastest way to move VMs and templates between datastores or to. This patch updates the esx-base, esx-update, vsan and vsanhealth VIBs to resolve the following issues. VMware ESXi contains an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in the NVMe functionality. A malicious actor with local non-administrative access to a virtual machine might be able to read privileged information contained in the memory.

VMware Installation and Administration Documentation
Before you begin installing VMware ESX Server 3.5 software on a Sun Blade X6440 server module, collect the necessary information pertinent to your situation by consulting the following required documents at http://www.vmware.com/support/pubs/vi_pubs.html.
- Introduction to VMware Infrastructure
- Quick Start Guide
- Installation and Upgrade Guide
- Basic System Administration
- Virtual Infrastructure Web Access Administrator's Guide
- Server Configuration Guide
Planning Network Interfaces
- The Virtual Infrastructure 3 service console and management interface is dependent on a network interface. The service console does not automatically use the first interface with a live connection. A live interface must be associated with the service console for host management.
Refer to the Sun Blade X6440 Server Module Service Manual for detailed information concerning network interface cabling and the BIOS considerations of these interfaces.
- By default, vmnic0 is assigned for service console communications.
Select an Installation Method
The most common methods for installing VMware on your server are to use:
- A remote ISO image downloaded from the VMware website, redirected through the ILOM Remote Console application (JavaRConsole).
- A remote CD/DVD drive (with a CD-ROM burned from the ISO image downloaded from the VMware web site) redirected through the ILOM Remote Console application.
- A local CD/DVD drive (with a CD-ROM burned from the ISO image downloaded from the VMware web site).
- Automatic KickStart installation from VMware software (installation tree) stored on a Preboot Execution Environment (PXE) network server.
This chapter contains the procedures for the first three methods. For information about preparing for PXE installation, see the VMware Installation and Upgrade Guide for VESX Server 3 and Virtual Center 2.0, Chapter 6, 'Remote and Scripted Installations.' This document can be accessed at http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vi3_301_201_installation_guide.pdf

Installing VMware ESX Server 3.5 From a Remote CD or Remote ISO Image
The following procedure describes how to use the Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) Remote Console to install VMware ESX Server 3.5 from a remote CD/DVD drive or a remote ISO image.
| Note - Read the Sun Integrated Lights Out Manager 2.0 User's Guide (820-1188) before completing the following steps. This guide provides details on using the ILOM service processor web interface to redirect the console. |
To Install VMware ESX Server 3.5 From a Remote CD or Remote ISO Image |
1. Locate your VMware ESX Server installation CD/DVD or the equivalent ISO image.
2. Connect to the ILOM service processor web interface.
3. Select the Remote Control tab, then select the Mouse Mode Settings tab. Download adobe r.
4. If necessary, change the mouse mode to Relative Mouse Mode.
See the 'Remote Console Application' chapter of the Sun Integrated Lights Out Manager 2.0 User's Guide for further instructions.
