	I skip using `go get` as it downloads all of the dependencies. But since we are vendoring using godep without rewriting imports, this means we download a bunch of stuff we don't use. Instead, just clone the repo directly. Fixes #1360.

## Getting started with vSphere
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Prerequisites
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
1. You need administrator credentials to an ESXi machine or vCenter instance.
 | 
						|
2. You must have Go (version 1.2 or later) installed: [www.golang.org](http://www.golang.org).
 | 
						|
3. You must have your `GOPATH` set up and include `$GOPATH/bin` in your `PATH`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   ```sh
 | 
						|
   export GOPATH=$HOME/src/go
 | 
						|
   mkdir -p $GOPATH
 | 
						|
   export PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin
 | 
						|
   ```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
4. Install the govc tool to interact with ESXi/vCenter:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   ```sh
 | 
						|
   go get github.com/vmware/govmomi/govc
 | 
						|
   ```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
5. Install godep (optional, only required when modifying package dependencies). [Instructions here](https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/kubernetes#installing-godep)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
6. Get the Kubernetes source:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   ```sh
 | 
						|
   mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform
 | 
						|
   git clone https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/kubernetes.git
 | 
						|
   cd kubernetes
 | 
						|
   ```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Setup
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Download a prebuilt Debian VMDK to be used as base image:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```sh
 | 
						|
wget https://storage.googleapis.com/govmomi/vmdk/kube.vmdk.gz{,.md5}
 | 
						|
md5sum -c kube.vmdk.gz.md5
 | 
						|
gzip -d kube.vmdk.gz
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Upload this VMDK to your vSphere instance:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```sh
 | 
						|
export GOVC_URL='https://user:pass@hostname/sdk'
 | 
						|
export GOVC_INSECURE=1 # If the host above uses a self-signed cert
 | 
						|
export GOVC_DATASTORE='target datastore'
 | 
						|
export GOVC_RESOURCE_POOL='resource pool or cluster with access to datastore'
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
govc import.vmdk kube.vmdk ./kube/
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Verify that the VMDK was correctly uploaded and expanded to 10GiB:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```sh
 | 
						|
govc datastore.ls ./kube/
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Take a look at the file `cluster/vsphere/config-common.sh` fill in the required
 | 
						|
parameters. The guest login for the image that you imported is `kube:kube`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Now, let's continue with deploying Kubernetes:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```sh
 | 
						|
cd kubernetes
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
# Build source
 | 
						|
hack/build-go.sh
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
# Build a release (argument is the instance prefix)
 | 
						|
release/build-release.sh kubernetes
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
# Deploy Kubernetes (takes ~5 minutes, provided everything works out)
 | 
						|
export KUBERNETES_PROVIDER=vsphere
 | 
						|
cluster/kube-up.sh
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Refer to the top level README and the getting started guide for Google Compute
 | 
						|
Engine. Once you have successfully reached this point, your vSphere Kubernetes
 | 
						|
deployment works just as any other one!
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
**Enjoy!**
