Jow Forums I am a junior virtual infrastructure engineer. A friend gave me this Poweredge for free. The power supply isnt working so I cant check the specs till I get a new one. I'm trying to get VMware as my hypervisor but its like 5 grand for the enterprise version. How do I get VMware without paying that much for it?

I know its proprietary but I work very closely with that software so I would like to have an environment as close to work as possible

>The power supply isnt working Bust out the soldering iron. It's always the undersized 25V filter cap on the output side.

OP here. Image of work. I work with Windows Enterprise solutions and vSphere. (Why I want VMware for my home lab)
Yea that was my initial concern with the free version

Op, just pastebin lookup a key, VMWare doesnt even auth it over the net. You are welcome

I will suck your cock. Thank you.
Now that we are in the topic, what hypervisor does everyone here use? I imagine virtul box since most people use Linux. What are the upsides to using a docker instead?
Yea I know Docker isnt a hypervisor. Why is it picking up popularity?

Easy and convenient for when you don't need an entire other instance of an OS running

We use VMware to make the host the VM's. Then we provision tens of thousands of them to people around the world using Citrix. Is Citrix going the way of the dinosaurs with the advent of cloud networks? Should I get a new job?
