VMware GSX Server 3.2Features | Documentation | Knowledge Base | Discussion Forums Overview of the VMware Virtual Machine Console WindowThe following sections provide an overview of the VMware Virtual Machine Console: Think of a VMware GSX Server virtual machine as a separate computer that runs in a window on your physical computer's desktop. The VMware Virtual Machine Console lets you connect to multiple virtual machines and switch easily from one to another. When you first connect a console to a GSX Server host, the Home tab appears in the virtual machine display. The Home tab indicates whether you are connecting to a GSX Server or ESX Server system, and the version of the server software. The status bar of the console window also displays this information.
If you are connecting to an older version of GSX Server or ESX Server, some of the controls and functionality of the interface change to accommodate the differences between the features available to that product. To see a list of what is different, see Connecting to Older GSX Server and ESX Server Systems and Older Virtual Machines.
