VMware Cannot Upload Large ISO File?

KB ID 0001463

Problem

I was trying to upload a windows 10 use file to my vSphere environment, and it was continually failing;

I tried multiple datastore on multiple hosts, same result. It wasn’t until I connected directly to one of the hosts to try that I saw a more descriptive Error;

Brilliant Thanks Microsoft! Their website says;

You may notice that even IE11 is limited to 4gb uploads, but that’s not a significant problem because websites should never try to upload large files (e.g. >50mb) directly in modern browsers.

Right so who makes Windows 10?

Solution

Use Chrome 🙁

vSphere: Open Console Only Opens the Web Console?

KB ID 0001437

Problem

At first I simply though this was an IE problem, but I tried with Firefox and Chrome and it was the same.

‘Open Console’ simply opens the web console, and does not offer you a choice any more?

Solution

They’ve done a great job of hiding it! On the VM’s summary tab, click the options ‘cog‘. And theres the options again.

If you want to use the VMRC, you will need to download it first!
