– If you have VI3 Enterprise, Standard, or Foundation license files, under
Licensed Features, you can also enable the appropriate ESX Server

13.If you intend to use VirtualCenter to manage all your ESXi hosts, we
recommend that you exit the VI Client sessions that are directly connected to
the individual ESXi hosts and connect to your VirtualCenter server using
VI Client (by using your VirtualCenter IP address, add the appropriate ESXi
hosts (using DNS registered host names and ESXi host root password)) to
VirtualCenter and make all configuration changes to ESXi hosts, HA/DRS
Clusters through VirtualCenter.
14.If you intend to use VMware VirtualCenter 2.5 Update 1 to manage ESXi
hosts in a High Availability (HA) Cluster, you have to enable swap space on
the ESXi hosts before adding them to an HA Cluster.
To enable Swap:
a. In the VirtualCenter Server, select the ESXi host.
b. In the Configuration tab page, click Advanced Settings.
c. Choose ScratchConfig. See Figure 5-25 on page 278.
