I appreciate the help but I've got zero Linux skills so I rather not go down unsupported CLI route. Even though I prefer ESXi I'm going to have look at Hyper-V as that's seems to be fully supported by APC and very easy to setup.

Perhaps you can get things working there? The OS is rather paired down tho… it’s a the BusyBOx distribution of Linux, IIRC. The VMWare commands are there (ie vmfsktools, etc…), so maybe you’ll have what you need? -sc From: Shazad Anwar [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, November 27, 2009 3:41 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: UPS support for free version of VMWare ESXi Hi, I'm looking to setup free version of VMware ESXi on 2 of our production servers but have come accross issue when looking into UPS support. It seems RCLI no longer works with free version of ESXi and due to this APC no longer support ESXi and scripts found in VMware community forums also no longer work. Is their no longer simple way to setup UPS with free version of ESXi or have I made mistake in my research?
