This is the required browser for connecting to UCSPE. Install Firefox (or any Mozilla compatible browser).VMware ESX hypervisor (use the VMware vCenter Converter tool to perform physical to virtual machine conversions).Install one of the following VMware products the UCSPE virtual machine can execute on: The requirement for UCS PE is pretty simple, for this setup, i don’t think that people would have any problem to meet the system requirement. I use my 4 years old thinkpad for this setup. We can use ESXi for this VM but because i am using it for testing only, vmware workstation will be just fine. UCS PE comes with OVA which means it is virtual machine that can be imported directly.
#MAC INSTALL UCS PLATFORM EMULATOR DOWNLOAD#
All you need to have is id to be able to download the material. This Emulator can be found on cisco communities site ( ). I do most of my learning and testing on Cisco UCS PE (Platform Emulator). ehm, it will be on another post… Introduction to UCS Platform Emulatorįor people who wants to learn Cisco UCS but don’t have any equipment laying around or don’t want to mess around with production server could use Cisco UCS PE instead. Next up, we are going to configure the UCSPE. but to really test it, why don’t we go over the web browser to check on the UCSPE.
#MAC INSTALL UCS PLATFORM EMULATOR MAC OSX#
NOTE: If you’re using MAC OSX and you want to change the ip address segment on vmnet editor, good luck finding it… You can however change it to static or change the ip address segment on the vmnet editor, but i don’t think that is necessary. it may be different because it dynamically assigned by vmware. Notice that cisco UCSPE already assigned ip address. except in the event of failure…Īfter finishing the installation, we will having below screen I cant remember what it said in the screen during the installation, i don’t think it matters anyway. it took me around 15minutes so i was able to have my coffee. It is time to take a short break cause it will be a while. Since it has no option for “i stole it”, “i robbed it” or “I downloaded it”, just pick the copied one. There would be a dialog box, well it is a basic stuff i guess. but for the time being, we only need to access it from the host. this might have different if we’re using ESXi since we want to be able to access the UCSPE remotely. We don’t have to change the network adapter configuration, just leave it on default. but in my case, i just wanted to tune my vm a bit.
well, it is up to you if you want to leave it on default. After downloading the ova or the zip, we can import the material to vmware workstation.Īfter the import, edit the virtual machine.Īs we can see, above is the default VM setting for the UCSPE.
