I am proud to announce that I was selected VMware vExpert for the second time in a row. I am very pleased that I was selected because I was working hard to share my knowledge with my readers and VMware noticed my effort as well.
This blog post is intended for my future use in post. It will shorten future post because I will just refer to this installation guide.
Besides, that it will be used in future I think it might be useful for people who never deployed anything using OVF or OVA files.
On February 2 VMware announced latest release of vSphere 6. CEO Pat Gelsinger in his session announced that this release is the biggest vSphere VMware did so far.

Today VMware announced exciting news about VMUG Advantage new feature. All new subscriptions and renewals will be offered with very interesting package which is called EVAL Experience. In my opinion this is deal breaker - many of people who have home labs quite often are using evaluation licenses and this is the problem for them. With new offering from VMUG Advantage finally it is worth to buy it. Personally if I will be not awarded vExpert 2015 I will buy it to have access to latest VMware software which I use almost every day in my home lab.
In the second post I will guide you through configuration of networks and providing network connectivity to Blade Servers.
Welcome to first post about HP Virtual Connect Module configuration. In first post we will focus on initial Virtual Connect Module configuration and some additional settings which are important from my point of view.
