Welcome to VMware Workstation

This section contains the following:

• Host System Requirements on page 14

• Virtual Machine Specifications on page 18

• Supported Guest Operating Systems on page 21

• What’s New in Version 3 on page 23

• Technical Support Resources on page 26

Thank you for choosing VMware™ Workstation, the software that increases the

productivity of developers and other technical professionals by letting them run

multiple operating systems in secure, transportable, high-performance virtual

computers.

If you’re new to VMware Workstation, this chapter is the place to start. It introduces

you to some of the things you can do with VMware Workstation and guides you

through installing the software and putting it to work.

If you’re a veteran user of VMware products, take a few minutes to see what’s new in

version 3 and check out the notes on upgrading your installation.

Virtualizing Your Computing Resources

VMware products provide a virtualization layer that turns your physical computers

into a pool of logical computing resources. You can then dynamically allocate those

resources to any operating system or application in the way that best meets your

needs. You’ll be able to spend more time delivering tangible value to your business

and less time installing operating systems, rebooting or reconfiguring hardware.

Run the operating systems you need — all at once

With VMware virtualization technology, you can set up completely independent

installations of operating systems on a single machine. Multiple instances of

Microsoft® Windows® or Linux® can run side by side in virtual machines that you

create with the VMware Workstation software. Each virtual machine is equivalent to a

PC with a unique network address and a full complement of hardware devices. You

install and run a complete, unmodified operating system and application software,

just as you would on a physical PC.

Host and Guest

•The physical computer

on which you install

the VMware

Workstation software

is called the host

computer, and its

operating system is

called the host

operating system.

• The operating system

running inside a virtual

machine is called a

guest operating

system.

• For definitions of these

and other special

terms, see the glossary

at the end of this

manual.

Introduction and System Requirements

14

www.vmware.com

Host System Requirements

What do you need to get the most out of VMware Workstation? Take the following list

of requirements as a starting point. Remember that the virtual machines running

under VMware Workstation are like physical computers in many ways — and, like

physical computers, they generally perform better if they have faster processors and

more memory.

PC Hardware

•Standard PC

• 400MHz or faster processor (recommended; 266MHz minimum) that supports

the Pentium® instruction set

Compatible processors include

Intel: Celeron, Pentium II, Pentium III, Pentium 4

AMD™: K6-2, K6-III, Athlon™, Athlon MP, Athlon XP, Duron™

• Multiprocessor systems supported

Memory

• Enough memory to run the host operating system, plus memory required for

each guest operating system and for applications on the host and guest

• Recommended: 256MB; minimum: 128MB

Display

• Greater than 256-color (8-bit) display adapter required

• Linux hosts must have a video adapter supported by the XFree86 server to run

guest operating systems in full-screen mode

Disk Drives

• 100MB (for Windows hosts), 20MB (for Linux hosts) free space required for basic

installation

• At least 1GB free disk space recommended for each guest operating system and

the application software used with it; using a default setup, the actual disk space

needs are approximately the same as those for installing and running the guest

operating system and applications on a physical computer

• IDE or SCSI hard drives, CD-ROM and DVD-ROM drives supported

• Guest operating systems can reside on physical disk partitions or in virtual disk

files

Introduction and System Requirements

15

www.vmware.com

Local Area Networking (Optional)

• Any Ethernet controller supported by the host operating system

• Non-Ethernet networks supported using built-in network address translation

(NAT) or using host-only networking plus routing software on the host operating

system

Windows Host Operating Systems

• Windows .NET Web Server beta 3, Windows .NET Standard Server beta 3 and

Windows .NET Enterprise Server beta 3 (experimental)

• Windows XP Professional and Windows XP Home Edition; Service Pack 1

• Windows 2000 Professional, Windows 2000 Server and Windows 2000 Advanced

Server; Service Pack 2; Service Pack 3

• Windows NT® Workstation 4.0 and Windows NT Server 4.0; Service Pack 3 or

higher

Caution: Do not install VMware Workstation on a Windows NT Server 4.0 system

that is configured as a primary or backup domain controller.

• Internet Explorer 4.0 or higher required for help system

Linux Host Operating Systems

Supported distributions and kernels are listed below. VMware Workstation may not

run on systems that do not meet these requirements.

Note: As newer Linux kernels and distributions are released, VMware modifies and

tests its products for stability and reliability on those host platforms. We make every

effort to add support for new kernels and distributions in a timely manner, but until a

kernel or distribution is added to the list below, its use with our product is not

supported. Look for newer prebuilt modules in the Download area of our Web site. Go

to www.vmware.com/download/.

• Mandrake™ Linux 8.2 — stock 2.4.18-6mdk

• Mandrake Linux 8.1 — stock 2.4.8-26mdk, upgrade 2.4.8-34mdk

• Mandrake Linux 8.0 — stock 2.4.3-20mdk

• Red Hat™ Linux 7.3 — stock 2.4.18

• Red Hat Linux 7.2 — stock 2.4.7-10, upgrade 2.4.9-7, upgrade 2.4.9-13, upgrade

Introduction and System Requirements

16

www.vmware.com

• Red Hat Linux 6.2 — upgrade 2.2.15-2.5.0, Dell specific 2.2.14-6.1.1 (Red Hat Linux

• SuSE™ Linux 8.0 — stock 2.4.18

• SuSE™ Linux Enterprise Server 7 — stock 2.4.7

• SuSE Linux 7.3 — stock 2.4.10

Note: If you are installing VMware Workstation on a SuSE 7.1, 7.2 or 7.3 SMP

host, you need to install the non-PAE-enabled kernel on the host before you

begin installing VMware Workstation. For more information, see Before You

Install on a SuSE Linux 7.1, 7.2, 7.3 or 8.0 Host Operating System on page 39.

• SuSE Linux 7.2 — stock 2.4.4

VMware Workstation may run on other Linux distributions; attempting to do so is

recommended for expert Linux users only.

Other Linux host operating system requirements:

• Linux kernel 2.2.14-5.0 is not supported

• Standard Linux installation with glibc version 2 or higher

• Version 2.1.36 of the SCSI Generic (sg.o) driver required to use generic SCSI

devices in virtual machines

• VMware Workstation requires an X server

• XFree86-3.3.3.1 or higher release

• XFree86 version 3.3.4 or higher server recommended

If you are using a recent Linux distribution, it should include an appropriate X

server by default. To find out what XFree86 server is running on your computer,

as root, run X -version.

Hosts Using PAE Options Not Supported

Host operating systems that use the Physical Address Extension (PAE) processor

options cannot be used to run VMware Workstation 3.2. This issue affects Linux hosts

if PAE is enabled in the kernel. It affects Windows hosts if booted with the /PAE

option.

If you are installing VMware Workstation on a SuSE Linux 7.1, 7.2 or 7.3 SMP host, you

must install the non-PAE-enabled kernel before you can install the VMware software.

Please complete the steps in Before You Install on a SuSE Linux 7.1, 7.2, 7.3 or 8.0 Host

Operating System on page 39.
