SouthGate Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 (edited) I'm looking to download ESXi for a home lab, I'm not sure out of these which I need to download. Is it the replication 6.5 appliance I need? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simonmg Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Replication is as it says - replication. Try https://my.vmware.com/group/vmware/details?downloadGroup=ESXI650&productId=614 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xahid Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 you need "VMware vSphere Hypervisor 6.0 - Binaries" to download. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthGate Posted February 17, 2017 Author Share Posted February 17, 2017 I didn't think the replication appliance sounded right. I cannot seem to download the ISO for 6.5, apparently I don't 'have permission'. Should I install 6.0 then do an upgrade to 6.5 directly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defiant Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 You need the ISO image to build an installer or to boot off CD. I'd use this as a starter for a free copy of ESXi6 https://my.vmware.com/en/web/vmware/evalcenter?p=free-esxi6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
