Feels wierd to be running a ESX server inside a virtual machine. A demo copy of ESX 3.5 is now up and running inside a VM I have created using err.. VMware Fusion. I also have a demo copy of Virtual Center running on an XP VM. Ain’t doing much of anything just about now. But when I get to work, I hope to get some NFS datastores and see if I can pull off launching a VM inside it… OMG…
I had to change settings in the VMX file. There is quite a bit of discussion around it in the VMware forums. Follow the breadcrumbs here

It would be time well spent if I can get some actual use out of this setup (Demo, trial, lab etc). Let’s hope so.
