Dell PowerEdge 2950 - Dell ESXi 4.1 image
I just recently purchased a Dell 2950. I'm able to install VMWare's ESXi 4.1 image perfectly fine, however, I would rather use Dell's image for I'm trying to utilize their sensors. I only see v4.0 on Dell's website. Will I be able to utilize the Dell sensors with the VMWare ESXi 4.1 image or do I have to wait until Dell releases their own image of 4.1?
There is one already. Go to the VMware support, hypervisor download and download the dell image. It is about halfway down the list.

I don't know how I missed this on the Dell website?! Sweet! Thanks!
It's easier to download the Dell OEM Cuistomisied Image from Dell or VMware.
I think A03/A04 are the latest of ESXi 4.1 U1.
