Request: ESXi Self-Service Portal (Customer Portal)

[Otlichno]

I am currently setting up some servers that I want users to be able to log into a site and do basic commands on their VMs. Does anyone know of one besides paying VMWare huge amounts of money?

Thanks,

What kind of commands? There's a web interface built in to ESX, but it's pretty limited for 4.X/5.0.

Well there's what Loppetve said, you can also do API calls and create your own portal / web gui. I know of one company that also does this,Abiquo; http://www.abiquo.com.

I know I've seen other's but I can't remember them at the moment.

Looking to give users the ability to reboot, start up, shut down, console, etc into their assigned VMs.
