Hi Sudip The file you downloaded should have the .7z or .zip extension if it is not a .exe file. As mentioned in the Exercise System Quick Start Guide, please use 7zip to decompress the file. Regards Guru

Hi Sudip

Sorry, I didn't realize that you were looking for the VMWare Player. It's a free software; you can download it yourself from the VMWare website.

Generally its included in all of our exercise systems in a folder called 'applications'. I apologise if it's missed out for this course. We'll get it corrected.

Regards
Guru

Hi Guru,

We have been given in the exercise guide as below

"Installing VMware Player On Windows VMware Player is an application that lets you run virtual machines. It is included in the PVS download.

1. Navigate to the applications subdirectory of your PVS setup directory.

2. Double click the VMware setup file, VMware-player-5.0.1-894247.exe.

3. Complete the installation accepting the defaults. "

But I am not able to find in Download Exercise system. Please help or share is the link to download VMWARE as it cost $249 in official site, 

This is as part of CSSA - Senior system architect course

I've just downloaded the Exercise System and it still doesn't contain the VMWare player.  Very confusing as the Quick Start Guide makes reference to it!!

Bryan,

Sorry for the confusion.

Thanks for pointing this out, the "Quick Start Guide" will be updated accordingly.

So again, we are sorry for the inconvenience. We no longer distribute the VMware software since they changed their license agreement. You can now download VMware Player from their website: http://www.vmware.com/products/player

Marco.
