![]() ![]() Well, EMC couldn’t sit idly by and let VMware one up them on stupidity. ![]() How awesome is the new web client? Well at least 244 people (as of Jan 14 2015) agree with me on how awesome it is in this thread on the vmware website titled “vSphere Web Client SUCKs so bad that my experience managing and supporting VMware has turn to SH**!” Here comes vCenter 5.5 and this awesome new web client written in Flash yes, Flash. So if you were about to undertake the hassle of deploying all this crap to gain back the feature you had in the fat client with the VSI plugins there, you’re not going to want to waste your time. I’ll also go ahead and play spoiler in case your sole purpose for reading this was to gain the ability to check PowerPath/VE path status via the vCenter web client you can’t, it’s not there. Yes it was mildly annoying that you had to RDP to a Windows desktop to manage your VMware and your storage, but it was a known and predictable process. vSphere/vCenter 5.1, things are stable, managed by the Windows fat client (aka the c# client), you can load up all your cool EMC plugins to manage your storage, it’s fast and reliable. EMC must be taking a page from VMware’s play book of giving customers exactly what they don’t want.
