* Persistence of Configuration File Changes in VMware(R) ESXi
In VMware(R) ESXi, the filesystem is a ramdisk. Modifications made
to the files within the filesystem are generally not persisted
across reboots, with the exception of designated configuration files.
These files are persisted to disk periodically and on ESXi shutdown.
If the system is reset without a graceful shutdown of ESXi before
changes to the designated configuration files are persisted to disk,
the changes are lost.
The following is one example of the effect of this behavior:
On certain systems, the first time that the thresholds for a probe
are changed after Server Administrator is installed, the current
threshold values for that probe are saved as the default threshold
values by writing the values to a configuration file. When "Set
to Default" is performed after the first change of the thresholds,
Server Administrator sets the threshold values to the values that
were saved in the configuration file as the default. If the system
is reset without a graceful shutdown of ESXi before the changes
to the configuration file are persisted to disk, the user-defined
thresholds become the default thresholds. [277439]
* On VMware ESX 3i operating system, Server Administrator supports
a maximum command log file size of 1 MB. This is configured by
default.

Windows, click "Start-> Programs-> Administrative Tools-> Service",
right-click "DSM SA Connections Services" and select "Start".
* The Server Administrator might show a blank page after the browser
is refreshed (using <F5> or clicking the browser "Refresh" in
Internet Explorer Version 7.0). This is a known issue and there is
an article and fix provided from Microsoft. The Knowledge Base
article number is KB933006 and a fix has been provided as
security update 933566 (MS07-033):Cumulative Security Update for
