I have installed VMPlayer and Vertica community edition (Virtual Machine) on WIndows 7 64 bit machine. When I run the .vmdk file, it only takes me to VMPlayer interface. How do I get to the Vertica database interface? How to run vertica database?
VMware server 2.0 and workstation 7.0 (.vmdk)

Re: Vertica installation on VMPlayer
Hi!
Welcome to the forums!
What do you mean by "it only takes me to VMPlayer interface"?
Are you at a Linux desktop? If so, logged in as the database admin (dbadmin by default) you can launch a terminal window and then run admintools or vsql from there.

Re: Vertica installation on VMPlayer
I downloaded the VM file “VMware Server 2.0 and Workstation 7.0 (vmdk) “from http://my.vertica.com/. There are 2 files downloaded in the zip version.
HP Vertica Analytic Database Server.vmdk
HP Vertica Analytic Database Server.vmx
Once the VMPlayer was installed, i run both these files.
I am using windows 7 (64 bit) machine and not Linux.
