Got my ESXi build done...

 

I couldn't get it to POST, and had to do some troubleshooting. So disconnected all drives except 1 SSD. Used different USB drives etc etc... then realized that ASUS are assholes and don't follow convention.

Yes, I had overlooked the fact that the white fan header, is actually the CPU fan header, LOL  ?

I had assumed the white one was the fan-opt - yes I don't read manuals after building them for around 25-30 years now ?

 

Anyway, all up and running now. Just sorting ESXi itself out now, got it installed, changed to a static IP, but then wouldn't connect to webgui... so changed back to DHCP, and not giving me an address now. So got some figuring out to do.

    Got it figured out in the end... I DLed and installed 6.7 instead, and all running fine now. Got storage done, and installed a couple VMs for testing. Haven't tried veeam, but will give it a look, thanks
