ESXi 8.0 U1 Not Registering Name with DHCP Server

Hi, today I configured ESXi 8.0 Update ` servers to obtain an IP address from the DHCP server. The host successfully received an IP address, but it didn’t register its name with the DHCP server.

What is the solution?

  1. Open the following file in a text editor:

				
					/etc/dhclient-vmk0.conf

				
			

2. Add this line to the file:

				
					send host-name "yourservername";

				
			

For example:

				
					send host-name "Esxi-24";

				
			
  1. Exit and save the file.

  2. Reboot the host.

Note: The semicolon (;) at the end of the line is very important, so don’t forget to include it.

That’s it! 🙂
