learn how to deploy the vCenter Virtual Appliance

Very nice video, thanks.

We are running vCenter Appliance 5.1 on ESXi 5.1 standalone(we want to know where our vcenter is).

I followed the guide, and noticed a few changes in vCenter Appliance 5.1 which I am running:
-Since we are running it on ESXi directly(no vSphere), you cant change the IP during deployment, this needs to be done later.
-When you are on the networks tab on the webpage, you cannot change both IP and hostname at the same time. Change hostname, then save, then change IP.

What is the Difference between vSphere, ESXi and vCenter ?
