Abstract

New NWSD types for ESX servers

Content

You are in: IBM i Technology Updates > IBM i integration with BladeCenter and System x > New NWSD types for ESX servers

New network server description (NWSD) types are provided for VMware® ESX servers. The new NWSD types eliminate the requirement for an "install" drive (the second drive) on ESX servers. For VMware ESXi embedded servers, the "system" drive (the first drive) is no longer required as well.

See the IBM i iSCSI Solution Guide for details.

The following IBM i PTF groups are used to deliver this enhancement:

5.4 PTF Group 6.1 PTF Group 7.1 PTF Group
