ESXi image won't be reloaded, it take some time to reload bare-metal on HS22 server... * to get Public IP address, ESXi.pm module runs 'esxcfg-vmknic -l' on reserved ESXi server and looks for IP address assigned to vmk1 interface. was (Author: dimach): Some notes: * sub grand_access() configures the ESXi server after user click Connect! button: - it mounts user's NFS storage, - add user, set reservation password (this requires a change in /etc/pam.d/system-auth to allow less complex passwords used be VCL) and add admin role. - it also scans and register all VMs on user's storage, so user is presented with all the VM he/she already have, just need to power ON. * sub sanitize() will return 1 if user never clicked the Connect! button.
