#Vmware fusion ubuntu install#
One nice part here is that one can use the same command to see status as we would use under Windows CLI or Linux with: fio-status -a Fusion-io Install vSphere – step 6 fio-status verification Fusion-io Install vSphere – step 4b GUI verificationĪnd if you want to install Fusion-io ioSphere:Įsxcli software vib install -d /tmp/fusionio-cimprovider-esxi5-bundle-3.6.1-114.zip -–no-sig-check Fusion-io Install vSphere – step 5 ioSphere Fusion-io Install vSphere – step 4a GUI verificationĪnd datastores can be seen/ created as one normally would. Now moving to the GUI you can see the storage adapter and data stores as normal.
You can validate this is installed with: Esxcli software vib list Fusion-io Install vSphere – step 3 Install libvsl-1.0.0-550-offline-bundle.3.zipĬopy libvsl-1.0.0-550-offline-bundle.3.zip and scsi-iomemory-vsl-55L-3.-offline_bundle-1377365.zip to /tmpĮsxcli software acceptance set -–level=CommunitySupportedĮsxcli software vib install -d /tmp/libvsl-1.0.0-550-offline-bundle.3.zip -–no-sig-check Fusion-io Install vSphere – step 1Įsxcli software vib install -d /tmp/scsi-iomemory-vsl-55L-3.-offline_bundle-1377365.zip -–no-sig-check Fusion-io Install vSphere – step 2Īt this point you will need to restart the system and verify that the driver is working. ioSphere3.6.1_VMware_Virtual_Appliance.zip is optional if have the license and need to centralized manage multiple nodes.
#Vmware fusion ubuntu drivers#
One first needs to find the proper drivers and firmware to make these cards work. Fusion-io requires registration for driver/firmware download but these cards can be vendor locked. Fusion-io cards are ideal for low latency, high IOPS transactions. VMware applications are broad and high-speed storage, especially when multiple VMs are hitting a datastore, is essential. In case you missed it – we had our install a Fusion-io ioDrive on Windows guide posted recently and notes on Ubuntu and Proxmox (Debian custom build) with Fusion-io. Today we have the Fusion-io ioDrive installation on VMware vShphere 5.5 guide for the VMware users.
