[one-users] OpenNebula with VMWare ESXi

[Vladimir Vuksan]

I get I need vSphere CLI if I am gonna do dynamic network modes. It would 
be helpful to make that very clear on the VMWare driver page. That said we 
are still left with the limitation of not being able to use the unpaid 
version of ESXi with OpenNebula. I have installed vSphere CLI and I'm 
still get

  error: internal error HTTP response code 500 for call to 
'RegisterVM_Task'. Fault: ServerFaultCode - 
fault.RestrictedVersion.summary

Am I missing something ?

Thanks,

Vladimir
