Windows Server 2019 rok with ESXi 6.5 doesn't work

Postby sandro » Wed Sep 04, 2019 15:09

I'm trying to install a Fujitsu copy of Windows Server 2019 standard ROK on a VMware ESXi 6.5 virtual machine based on Fujitsu TX2550 hardware, but it always tells me that the hardware is not Fujitsu and the installation does not complete.
I have already tried to configure the three parameters:
SMBIOS.addHostVendor = "TRUE"
SMBIOS.reflectHost = "TRUE"
SMBIOS.noOEMstrings = "TRUE"
but I didn't solve my problem.
Can someone help me? Thank you

According to Fujitsu's ReadMe for 6.5u3, you'd need EITHER the first line, OR the latter two, but not ALL three.

In case you took these lines from the readme: Did you actually TYPE the characters, or did you copy/paste from the PDF?

Pls. be aware: If the host/VM in question is managed by vCenter Server, directly editing the .vmx file through an ssh session to the host is NOT a proper way to achieve the desired result.
