As VMware admin’s ,we are so much used to work with vSphere windows
client against vSphere web Client. Have you tried to installing vSphere
client on Domian controller machine. By default, that is not possible.
When we try to install vSphere windows client on Domain Controller, We
may end up with the error message” vSphere Client fails with a
message saying the as a requirements the management station has to be
running XP SP2 and not a domain controller”. For people running
Lab environment, Will not prefer to install another windows VM just to
install vSphere client. In that situation, You can make use of this OS
SKIP command to install the vSphere client on Windows Domain controller
as a workaround.
Below is the error message you will receive, when you try to install vSphere client on Windows Domain Controller machine.
You
can use an advanced switch when installing VI client on Domain
Controller . You can launch the installer from a command line and in
this case there is a switch to use which skips the OS check. Here is the
command to use:
VMware-viclient.exe /VSKIP_OS_CHECKS=”1″
