Esxi : Ping vs vmkping : same thing

Posted on 9:43 PM by Unknown
    This site pointed out that in ESXI they point to the same binary

    Just to check I ssh'd to my esxi host and did a md5 comparison on the binaries of the commands




    They are the same
    Just a small fyi for those coming from a esx site.
