This is to let you have your own all-in-oneclick server for ESXi auto deployment.

Steps:

1. Clone this repo
2. Create directory (roles/esxi_director/files/photon/), and put photon ovf files to it
3. Download ESXi 5.5U3 and 6.0U1 build (iso files) to: roles/esxi_director/files/
4. Prepare a Ubuntu server 14.04 64bits
5. Setup passwordless access from your compute to Ubuntu server
6. Add server info (ip username) to hosts file
7. Run following commands to get the server ready:
   ansible-playbook sites.yml -i hosts -u [SSH_USER] --ask-sudo-pass

What will you get:
