That’s the day most of us ( or at least me :)) were waiting for. It’s officialy available to download vSphere 6.5 GA.

It can be downloaded directly from this page.

Documentation can be found here.

The most important features are:

• HTML 5 vSphere Client
• ProactiveHA
• Network-Aware DRS
• vCenter Backup and Restore
• Auto Deploy integraded with Web Client
• vSphere Update Manager built-in vCenter Server Appliance.
• General Storage, NFS and Network enhancements

I guess that there aren’t many of you who will install it in the production environments. I won’t too, however ESXi and vCenter ISOs are already downloaded, lab is also up and ready so it’s high time to test it. I’ll share my findings here as soon as possible, so please stay tuned.
