How to backup and update VMware ESXi using GUI Tool

The ESXi Configurator is a utility to help manage stand along ESXi hosts. This utility is a GUI interface to VMware RCLI application. The ESXi Configurator uses the VMware RCLI scripts to execute all its function and features. The utility is a GUI application that uses the RCLI perl scripts to perform its tasks. This is a very simple front end interface to the RCLI (command line only) scripts.

This initial release includes the ability to backup, restore and update your ESXi host (epically handy for people that are not using VirtualCenters Update Mangers). This a first release and I’m sure still has a few bugs. Please feel free to contact us with any issues you run into or with any suggestions you might have for the application

VMware RCLI is required to be installed on your machine in order to use the ESXi Configurator Utility.
