We have VMWare View 5 set up for a single tenant environment, absolutely brilliant and works perfectly. Two thumbs up there!

We're looking at the possibility of deploying this in a multi tenant scenario, where multiple unlinked companies connect to a VDI solution hosted by us but have no visibility of each other.

Obviously;y this could be achieved by doubling up on all the components, having a complete VMWare View stack for each tenant, but this seems a little bit messy.

Has anyone done this before, and if so how? Googling sheds little light apart from this experts exchange topic.

VMWare ESXi, change the default path for a VM

as seen on Server Fault - Search for 'Server Fault'
For some reason VMWare ESXi has decided that one of my VMs is on a completely different path to the path it is actually on. So my VM is on /vmfs/volumes/long-guid-here/my-vm-name but when I try to open it I get the message "File < unspecified filename was not found." Which is not really surprising… >>> More

Eject disk on Mac Pro running VMWare ESXi

I'm almost embarrassed to ask this, but I'm stuck. I installed VMWare ESXi on a Mac Pro. It's working great! The problem is that you press F12 to eject the disk, and F12 is what you use to shutdown ESX. I can power down, open the case, pull out the CD drive and use a paper clip to force the drawer… >>> More
