VMWARE 부팅 POST화면 시간 설정

참고 : https://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1004129

To make it easier to access the BIOS setup screen, edit the configuration (.vmx) of the virtual machine and add or edit one of these options:

bios.forceSetupOnce = "TRUE"

This forces entry to the BIOS setup at startup.

bios.bootDelay = "xxxx"

This adds a delay to the initial POST screen, showing it for longer and giving you more time to access the BIOS setup, where xxxx is the number of milliseconds to show the POST screen (There are 1000 milliseconds in a second.). The maximum value for the boot delay is 10000 milliseconds or 10 seconds.

Fusion

  2. Connect to the service console of the ESX host.
  3. Enter this command to unregister the virtual machine you want to modify:
vmware-cmd -s unregister /vmfs/volumes/VMname/vm.vmx

where VMname and vm.vmx are the working directory and virtual machine configuration file name on your system.

Note: A return status of 1 indicates the virtual machine was unregistered successfully.

  1. Modify the configuration file of the virtual machine using either of the options detailed above.
  2. Type the following command to register the virtual machine:
vmware-cmd -s register /vmfs/volumes/VMname/vm.vmx

where VMname and vm.vmx are the working directory and virtual machine configuration file name on your system.

Note: A return status of 1 signals the virtual machine was registered successfully.

vCenter Server/VirtualCenter
