Mac – easy way to manage VMware ESXi on Mac OS X

macsnow leopardvmware

I'm a VMware guy, running a dozen of ESXi … and i'm also a mac user and I've had it with launching VMware Fusion to boot my Win7 to work on vSphere client…

Am I missing something? Sys Admins and Solution Architects are using Linux/Mac more and more … Is there anyway that i can do that without having to rely on rdesktop and other unreliable workarounds?

If you've got access to vCenter, then you can administer your servers via the vCenter Web Access page. Otherwise, if you have any Windows VMs then you could install the vSphere client in there and remote-desktop into it as a standalone application.
