VMware GSX Server Administration Guide
Easier Sharing of Virtual Machines with Latest VMware Products
Virtual machines created with GSX Server 3 are compatible with VMware Workstation
4 and ESX Server 2 for easier migrating and sharing of virtual machines.
New LSI Logic Virtual SCSI Adapter for Guest Operating Systems
The LSI Logic virtual SCSI adapter is included when you install Windows Server 2003,
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.0 or NetWare guests.
PXE Boot
Boot virtual machines over your network and install guest operating systems from a
PXE server. For more information, see

On Windows hosts, use the Virtual Network Editor to configure virtual networking
easily. For more information, see
Networking in the VMware GSX Server Virtual Machine
Guide.

Using the DVD-ROM or
CD-ROM Drive on a Client in the VMware GSX Server Virtual Machine Guide.
