Changing the IP address of service console in ESX 3.x Damian Murdoch comes through again, this time, helping us change the IP address of the service console in VMware's ESX Server 3.x.

Login to the service console with root permissions, either by using root or doing a su - to get the permissions. Once in the service console runt the command "esxcfg-vswif -d vswif0". This command deletes the existing vswif0. Don't worry if you get a message about nothing to flush. Then you need to run the command to change the ip address, subnet mask and broadcast address.

Method 2 – Using Vmware Converter (http://www.vmware.com/download/converter/) to shrink or extend a disk When you use Converter to copy a VM it will transfer the data to the destination server by one of two ways. If you do not change the disk size or increase the size of your original disks then it does a block level clone of the drive. If you reduce the size of your original disks it instead does a file level clone of the drive. • Download and install Converter on the VM that you want to resize the drives, reboot after the install completes • Start Converter application, click the Import Machine button • Click Next at the Welcome screen and then Next again at the Source screen • Select ‘Physical Computer’ and click Next o Select “This Local Machine” and click Next • At the Source Data screen select your volumes and change “Maintain Size” to “Type Size in GB” and enter your new disk size and click Next • At the Destination screen click Next • Select “Import this machine to a Vmware ESX
