Looking into setting up a Loadrunner monitor for a ESX host running my test virtual machines. Some quick searching is not finding any native ESX monitors. Can i use some Linux kind of thing? I have seen some doco which suggests Sitescope does this. Thoughts?

it is possible to install docker desktop on virtual machine (vmware) windows 10 on a VMWARE ESXI ?
i am trying to install desktop docker on my vmware virtual machine with windows 10.
I installed the wsl2 support but at the end of the installation docker crashes with the following error:
Docker desktop 4.0.1
Installation failed
Component CommunityIstaller.ServiceAction failed to start services: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion
I have done several tests but I cannot avoid this crash in any way.
The Operating System is a build that meets the minimum requirements to install Docker.
However, I noticed that Hyper-V is not enabled in the windows features. can this be a problem?
I think maybe it's a grafted virtualization problem because I install docker inside a VM. it's possible?
How can I solve? (or do you think that i will fix this problem with linux virtual machines?)
Does your host machine have all the advanced flags for 'efficient' nested virtualization? I wouldnt really recommend a third layer install of docker (as the final container is then virtual , on paravirtual (wsl2) on virtual (HyperV), on virtual (Esxi). I heavily assume the performance will be terrible.
And yes: You need Hyper-V, it's a requirement still. I assume, as you say its not available on the features, youre running a windows 10 home? Then sorry, you need at least Windows 10 Pro for Hyper-V support.
But as youre running a ESXI host, go the better performing way: Install any Linux distro of your choise, install docker there - if you wanna use it for Visual Studio etc. , you can still remotely debug etc. - and its performing better than on an a even deeper nested virtualized windows-wsl2. And btw: if its because of GUI, simply install the free Visual Studio Code, it offers Docker Tools which offer you many configiruation and monitoring options in a GUI , without enforcing you to do such a super deep nesting.
Yes, it's definitely possible. I'd probably check the hardware assisted virtualization (if available) is enabled. If so, you might want to make sure you've satisfied the rest of the requirements for the WSL2 backend deployment. If you're still having issues, try an older version and try upgrading from there.
Recently I have a framework which can run in Linux only, but I am used to work on windows.I know that Nvidia-docker doesn't support windows, so I have to choose install double system in one host or use a virtual machine allocated as Linux.Maybe I prefer the latter.So I want to know if the virtual machine can use GPU in host or in workstation? What should I do to solve this problem? Better method hoped! Thanks!
For VMWare: https://www.dell.com/support/article/en-us/sln288103/how-to-enable-a-vmware-virtual-machine-for-gpu-pass-through?lang=en
And Hyper-V also can pasthrough GPU: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/b9e21b8f-8774-49c2-b499-b2b8ff2a41a2/hyperv-windows-10-pci-passthrough?forum=win10itprovirt
I am trying to create an environment with Jira 7.7 software, from Atlassian.
I wanted to do it inside a Virtual Machine in my local host.
In Atlassian Website they only talk in VMWare, for virtualization.
(https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver/supported-platforms-938846830.html).
I am not sure if I can use Hyper-V (in Windows Server 2016).
Do you know If I can do it?
Jira is a fancy application, and reasonably complex, but in the end it's still Java code running via Tomcat. That's all pretty straightforward, and a typical workload for virtualized environments. It should just work.
Note that your VMWare link talks a lot about optimization. That's an advanced topic, beyond getting things to work. Tuning Hyper-V is a similar task.
I notice that nvidia has support for GPU and Docker, but I believe this is only for linux at the moment. Has anyone got it working on windows 10?
In particular, I'm hoping to get access to it for machine learning applications.

Since Docker uses Virtualbox to work on Windows, and Virtualbox will not expose CUDA to the guest without PCI passthrough, I think it will not be possible to do this as you are thinking.
For 2018-01, it looks like no one was able to make it work yet.
Moreover, they say (#29, #197) it would require DDA (PCI passthrough), so, theoretically it should be possible to make it work on Windows Server 2016, but not on Windows-10. But even for Windows Server 2016 - I've not found any success stories.
Seems that in Windows 10 Docker does not uses Virtualbox to work in Windows. So it may work.

I am about to use AMQP for a project and would like to use RabbitMQ, as it looks to be a good implementation. My problem is that one of the platforms will be AIX 6, and I cannot find a installable binary for the platform. Even worse it looks like there is no port of erlang for AIX.
Can anyone give me a pointer to erlang for AIX 6 or at least a port that I can compile without too much pain. Thanks...
Are you aware that RabbitMQ is usually installed on one or more servers that are used exclusively for the MQ broker function? If you do it that way, perhaps you can justify some Linux or Solaris servers to run RabbitMQ.
If you can run a virtualization environment on AIX then a Linux or OpenSolaris VM would be the best way to go.
