How to import virtual machines into ESXi using the vSphere Client

November 21, 2009

Rather than copying a virtual machine to the ESXi hardware node, there is a quick easy way to upload it via the VMware vSphere client.  This can be done by doing the following:

  1. In the vSphere client, click on the server.
  2. Click on the summary tab.
  3. Right click on datastore -> Browse Datastore
  4. Use the icon with the up arrow in front of some disks (Upload files to this datastore)
  5. Upload the folder or files that you require.
  6. Create a new (or use an existing) VM and use the vmdk file you have uploaded.
