vSphere 5.5 新增Realtek網路卡

[kaku]

原本vSphere5.1有支援Realtek網路卡,但卻在5.5版中拿掉了
故需事後手動新增:
1.上傳Realtek Vib驅動程式
將VMware_bootbank_net-r8169_6.011.00-2vmw.510.0.0.799733.vib
及VMware_bootbank_net-r8168_8.013.00-3vmw.510.0.0.799733.vib
上傳至vSphere 5.5主機上(可用Putty或DataStore瀏覽上傳)

VMware_bootbank_net-r8169_8168.zip

2.手動執行Vib安裝
esxcli software vib install -v /vmfs/volumes/datastore1/Driver/VMware_bootbank_net-rXXXXXXXXXX.vib
3.vSphere5.5主機重新開機
