Hi,

There a possible solution however, PowerChute is not officially supported with the free license for ESXi as listed in the installation guide, compatibility chart, and multiple Schneider Electric Knowledge Base documents.

The possible solution is listed in a VMware Community post

https://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-11623

Note: The post discusses ESXi 4 and 5 so I am not sure if it will work with ESXi 6.
