Logging In to VMware Server Using VI Web Access
Any user that has authorization on the host machine can log in to VMware Server.
To log in to VMware Server using VI Web Access
1 Launch your Web browser.
2 Enter the URL of your VMware Server installation:
/" href_cetemp="http:///">http:///
If you are not using port 80 to connect to VMware Server, you must include the port
number you specified during installation in the connection URL, for example:
:8222/" href_cetemp="http://:8222">http://:8222
When you connect remotely, you are automatically redirected to the secure http
(https) port.
The VI Web Access login page appears.------------------------------------------------------------------------------NOTE If the connection fails, enter the correct host name, IP address, or
localhost, as appropriate, in the connection URL. You can also manually enter
the short name and the FQDN, or localhost, in the /etc/hosts file.------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3 Enter the user name and password you use to log in to the host, and click Log In.---->如果本机是在域中,且用了FQDN的话,这里的用户名密码就是登陆本机时使用的域用户的用户名/密码
After your user name and password are authorized, the main application page
appears.
Your user role determines what you can see and which actions you can perform in
VI Web Access. See Chapter 10, “Managing Roles and Permissions,” on page 201.====================================================================================Refreshing Datastores
When you refresh a datastore, VMware Server updates the capacity and free space
available. The refresh command allows you to see changes in disk capacity and free
space caused by operations performed directly on the host system. These values are
automatically updated when you perform VMware Server operations such as creating
or deleting a virtual machine.
To refresh a datastore

2 In the Datastores section of the Summary tab, click the datastore to refresh.
3 In the Commands section of the Summary tab, click Refresh Datastore.
The values for capacity and free space are updated for that datastore.===========================================================================================================================================================================Adding a Virtual Machine to the Inventory
When you create a virtual machine using VI Web Access, it is automatically added to
the inventory. This section describes how to add a virtual machine to the inventory if it
is on a networked file system or copied from another host
.
Before you can add a virtual machine to the inventory, the files that make up the virtual
machine must be located in a datastore. See “Managing Datastores” on page 110.
To add a virtual machine to the inventory

2 In the Commands section of the host Summary tab, click Add Virtual Machine to
Inventory.
3 Click Browse to locate the configuration file (.vmx file extension) for the virtual
machine that you want to add to the inventory.

The Contents column lists the contents of the current directory.
The Information column shows detailed information about the selected directory
or file.

VMware Server includes options to remove a virtual machine from the inventory or to
completely delete the virtual machine
. You do not need to manipulate files on the host
file system to delete a virtual machine.

virtual machine’s files from the disk.
If you do not select Delete this virtual machine’s files from the disk, the virtual
machine is removed from the inventory, but all the virtual machine files remain
intact on the datastore.

The virtual machine is deleted or removed from the inventory.
You can also delete a virtual machine or remove it from the inventory from the Virtual
Machine menu. See “Deleting a Virtual Machine”
