How to connect to ESX Server Storage To Upload VM Images

I am trying to figure out how I can connect to an ESX server's storage system so that I can upload VM image files. I am a windows user if that matters (i suspect it does).

Thanks in advance

  • You can do this through the VMWare Infrastructure Client.

    • Go to the Configuration -> Storage tab.
    • Double click the Datastore you want to upload to.
    • Click the Upload icon (looks like a little disk array with a green arrow pointing up)
    • Follow the instructions from there.
  • You can also use WinSCP, or Veeam's FastSCP -http://www.veeam.com/vmware-esxi-fastscp.html (works on ESX & ESXi)

    I prefer FastSCP myself
