Hi All,

I am installing the vcenter server.
In order to install this I went through the vcenter installation guide, and vmware ready program. Then I downloaded the vmware-vimsetup

. I installed it as per the instructions in the below link video.

in the above page go to the free training & documentation,
click on 1st video – Installation-vCenter Server.

I installed the o.s -Windows 2008 - R2 on new physical machine.
After this i installed the vcenter server .

Please help me to solve these issues, tell me what to be done..

I have attached the screen shots.

Kind Regards

I can't precisely remember whether you need to configure a 32 bit or 64 bit ODBC connection. 64 bit ODBC connections are via the Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Data Sources (ODBC).

For 32bit ODBC, you verify and configure this via C:\Windows\System32\odbcad32 application.

vCenter server needs access to a SQL server as far as I know. Have you verified whether ODBC connections (under system) already exist? And do they point to a SQL server DB?
