So this screenshot is taken from the vCentre or from the vSphere on an OVH server?

Could you send me your server name, so I can check a few things?

Yes i have an esxi server here for a while and i have decided to try out the vcenter trial and its backup plugin, the vcenter is installed at my home pc, if it would work, i would arrange for another server but, it will not "add host" because of the Y2K bios bug :P

Hello, i just tried adding an esxi host to vcenter and it failed with "A general system error occurred: internal error", anyway googling the error i came upon this blog post which is from yesterday explaining the issue: link
Apparently the motherboard's bios is showing the release date as year 1911, and that will not work with vcenter, i would need a bios update to latest version. Do all ovh servers come with outdated bios? Will this ever be fixed? I was planing to upgrade server when new 2012 range comes.
