Installing on Systems Using an IBM Remote Supervisor Adapter II Card or on a System with Baseboard Management Controller

Details

Why is my ESX Server installation on an IBM system with Supervisor Adapter II card not working?

Solution

If you are installing ESX Server on a system with an RSA II card, use the text-mode installation method. Choosing the graphical installation method is not supported on the following servers:
  • IBM xSeries 445 with optional RSA II
  • IBM xSeries 345 with optional RSA II
  • IBM xSeries 365
  • IBM xSeries 346
