VMware released vSphere 8 in October and in traditional Sysadmin Tutorials style we are kicking off the vSphere 8 series with this ‘How to install and Configure VMware ESXi 8’
It feels like VMware only released vSphere 7 the other day, boy does time fly.
Join me on this complete walkthrough and see some of the new features ESXi 8 has to offer such as: creating port groups and switches within the installer, customizing the ESXi WebUI with your favorite colours, and much more
An example of customizing the user theme is shown below
