There are also some other features that you will discover by practice and make hands-on labs.Automatically Suspend Shared Virtual Machines Upon Host Shutdown.Scan for Virtual Machines in local folders as well as on network shared storage and USB drives.With improved OVF/OVA support for testing and experimentation within Workstation.Support for ESXi Host Power Operations such as Shutdown, Restart and Enter/Exit Maintenance Mode.Dark Mode support for optimized user experience.Vulkan Render Support for Linux Workstation.Support for DirectX 11 and OpenGL 4.1 in the Guest.New Guest operating system support for RHEL 8.2, Debian 10.5, Fedora 32, CentOS 8.2, SLE 15 SP2 GA, FreeBSD 11.4, and ESXi 7.0.Container and Kubernetes Support – Build, run, pull and push container images using the vctl command-line tool.This tutorial also discusses some common issues during the installation process. VMware Workstation 16 Pro is popular software that allows you to run multiple different virtual machines on physical hosts using the concept of Type II of hypervisors (Hosted Hypervisors). If you want the entire step-by-step, I’ve found a nice write-up here.This tutorial will show you how to install VMware Workstation 16 Pro on RHEL/CentOS, Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu, and Linux Mint. Connecting the resulting VM to your XenServer media should complete the install without issue. Give it a processor or two and at least 1G of RAM. An LSI Logic SCSI controller is also important.
Most important is the recognition that you’ll be running XenServer not as an ESX OS, but instead as an “Other Linux 2.6.x kernel 64-bit” OS.
Once you’ve gotten the software, getting it running (perhaps, on your dedicated virtualization learning laptop?) requires the same VM-in-a-VM steps that you already know for nesting ESX inside VMware Workstation with one or two minor modifications.
In this location, you’ll be given the option to download either XenServer's free edition or a 45-day evaluation of XenServer Platinum Edition. Getting the XenServer software starts by clicking on over to Citrix’s website, specifically here. But most of us haven’t yet invested the time in our hypervsior triumvirate’s least-deployed third: Citrix XenServer. There’s been plenty of discussion about the steps necessary to run VMware ESX inside VMware Workstation.
