<h1>VMware Workstation / Player / Fusion hypervisors driver</h1>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The libvirt VMware driver should be able to manage any Workstation,
|
|
Player, Fusion version supported by the VMware VIX API. See the
|
|
compatibility list
|
|
<a href="http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/vix-api/vix110_reference/">here</a>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This driver uses the "vmrun" utility which is distributed with the VMware VIX API.
|
|
You can download the VIX API
|
|
from <a href="http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/vix-api/">here</a>.

<h2>Connections to VMware driver</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The libvirt VMware driver provides per-user drivers (the "session" instance).
|
|
Three uris are available:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>"vmwareplayer" for VMware Player</li>
|
|
<li>"vmwarews" for VMware Workstation</li>
|
|
<li>"vmwarefusion" for VMware Fusion</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Some example connection URIs for the driver are:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
vmwareplayer:///session (local access to VMware Player per-user instance)
|
|
vmwarews:///session (local access to VMware Workstation per-user instance)
|
|
vmwarefusion:///session (local access to VMware Fusion per-user instance)
|
|
vmwarews+tcp://user@example.com/session (remote access to VMware Workstation, SASl/Kerberos)
|
|
vmwarews+ssh://user@example.com/session (remote access to VMware Workstation, SSH tunnelled)
|
|
</pre>
