# VMware vSphere
|
|
Creates machines on a [VMware vSphere](http://www.vmware.com/products/vsphere) Virtual Infrastructure. The machine must have a working vSphere ESXi installation. You can use a paid license or free 60 day trial license. Your installation may also include an optional VCenter server. The vSphere driver depends on [`govc`](https://github.com/vmware/govmomi/tree/master/govc) (must be in path) and has been tested with [vmware/govmomi@`c848630`](https://github.com/vmware/govmomi/commit/c8486300bfe19427e4f3226e3b3eac067717ef17).
