<p><b>New page</b></p><div>There are two options for managing servers hosting virtual machines, the VMWare Server console, and a web interface to the console.<br />
<br />
== The Console Application ==<br />
<br />
The console application can be used to start and stop VMs as well as set various networking and device configuration.<br />
<br />
Using X-forwarding, open a trusted session to the host machine:<br />
<br />
$ ssh -Y host<br />
<br />
And start the console:<br />
<br />
vmware &amp;<br />
<br />
Connect to localhost<br />
<br />
(The console can also be used remotely, via port 902)<br />
<br />
In order for VMs to appear in the web-based management interface, they must be listed in the Console inventory. Select "Open" from the contextual menu and browse to the .vmx file for your VMX.<br />
<br />
<br /><br />
<br />
== The VMWare Management interface ==<br />
<br />
''The VMWare Management interface is a web-based interface using its own built-in apache server''<br />
<br />
To start the Apache server, type<br />
<br />
/etc/init.d/httpd.vmware start<br />
<br />
To stop the Apache server, type<br />
<br />
/etc/init.d/httpd.vmware stop<br />
<br />
To restart the Apache server, type<br />
<br />
/etc/init.d/httpd.vmware restart<br />
<br />
Connect to the interface:<br />
<br />
https://host:8333/<br />
<br />
This shell script simplifies tunneling to machines running the VMX management interface:<br />
<br />
<nowiki><br />
#!/bin/bash<br />
<br />
user=$1<br />
gateway=$2<br />
destination=$3<br />
<br />
echo "Opening a tunnel to a VMX Management Interface..."<br />
echo ""<br />
<br />
if [ -z ${user} ]; then<br />
user=todd<br />
# echo " ---&gt; No user provided. Defaulting to '${user}'."<br />
fi<br />
<br />
if [ -z ${gateway} ]; then<br />
gateway=brie3.cshl.org<br />
# echo " ---&gt; No gateway provided. Defaulting to '${gateway}'."<br />
fi<br />
<br />
if [ -z ${destination} ]; then<br />
destination=freeze1.wormbase.org<br />
# echo " ---&gt; No gateway provided. Defaulting to '${destination}'."<br />
fi<br />
<br />
echo "Tunneling to ${destination} through ${gateway} as user ${user}..."<br />
echo " ---&gt; To change these values:"<br />
echo " $0 username gateway destination"<br />
<br />
<br />
ssh -t -l todd -L 8333:localhost:10000 brie6.cshl.org \<br />
ssh -l todd -L 10000:freeze1.wormbase.org:8333 freeze1.wormbase.org<br />
</nowiki><br />
<br />
