VMware ESXi System Requirements
Refer to the GigaVUE-VM Release Notes for the hardware requirements on which VMware ESXi runs GigaVUE-VM.
To support internationalized characters in the VMware vCenter environment ensure that the vCenter character encoding is set to UTF-8.
Note: TCP port 443 must be open from the GigaVUE‑FM instance to host in the vCenter and upload the OVA image files.
Privileges Required for VMware Virtual Center
Some minimum privileges are required for the GigaVUE‑FM user in the Virtual Center. You can assign privileges to Virtual Center users by selecting Administration > Access Control > Roles, and then use the Edit Role dialog box in vCenter. Roles should be applied at the vSphere Virtual Center level and not the DataCenter or Host levels.
The following table lists the minimum required permissions for GigaVUE‑FM to manage the virtual center.
