如何将SLIC集成到ESXi中

参考 http://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads/12982-ESX-ESXi-Bios-Tools/page34?p=721830&viewfull=1#post721830

参考 http://www.educity.cn/linux/1149093.html

1.Enabled SSH on ESXi
2.SSHed to ESXi host and found s.v00 (/bootbank/s.v00)
3.Created a backup copy of s.v00
4.Extracted s.v00 with "vmtar -x s.v00 -o output.tar"
5.Created temp directory
6.Moved output.tar to temp/
7.Extracted output.tar with "tar xf s.v00"
8.SCPed bin/vmx to Windows box
9.Extracted bios440.rom with ESXBiosTools 2.1.1.7
10.Got ACPITbls.rw from a running VM
11.Openned Phoenix Bios Tools, selected "other" (because there was no HP there), selected an HP Server SLIC 2.1 bin file, selected an HP SERVER SLIC 2.1 certificate (both matched with "verificate"), and loaded the acpitbls.rw file
12.Created bios440_SLIC.rom
13.Injected bios440_SLIC.rom on vmx file, sent it back to ESXi temp folder, changed permissions and ownership
14.Packed the s.v00 file again and moved it to /bootbank
15.Reboot
16.AIDA64 on a running VM reports _ASUS_ SLIC, even after i`ve choosen other on Phoenix Bios Tools and selected "HP SERVER" cert and bin.
17.I think that because of this it won`t accept a server license because ASUS has only client licenses, not servers.

修改VMware的BIOS中DMI信息以安装OEM版Windows

1、用ResScope找到vm的记录bios的文件，在vm的安装文件夹下面的bin/vmware-vmx.exe，备份后打开vmware-vmx.exe，找到6006模块，导出为6006.rom，这就是vm的bios文件。

2、用Phoenix BIOS Editor打开6006.room，ctrl+d打开DMI Strings这个窗口，修改3个地方

Motherboard Manufacturer Name —-> DELL SYSTEM

Motherboard Version —-> DELL SYSTEM

System Manufacturer Name —–> DELL SYSTEM. （注意后面的小点，别忘了）

3、保存，然后把6006.rom用ResScope导入后保存vmware-vmx.exe。

.修改.vmx文件

bios440.filename = “6006.ROM”

下载：BIOS440HP 可用于Win7 HP安装

6006可用于WinXp HP安装
