Descriptions:
In this article we are going to see, how we can install vCenter Server 6.0 on
windows server operating system platform including embedded platform service
controller. If you have larger infrastructure of Virtual Servers, you can think
to have separate platform service controller but if you have 50-100 or 200 VMs
approx, its good to go with single vCenter server with inbuilt platform service
controller.

Application > Run As Administrator > Click OK if prompted
Select vCenter Server
