VNX is a storage array from EMC, there is a virtual appliance that runs VNX FIle version of it inside of a VMware machine. This has nothing to do with VNX (Virtual network of Linux) that you are asking about. Wrong forum.
Reply It is not the official configuration.
Software requirements
- 64-bit-capable operating system supported by VMware Workstation or VMware Player
Note: Refer to the VMware software documentation for more information.
- VMware software requirements:
- One Data Mover: VMware Workstation 5.5.9 or higher, or VMware Player
- Two Data Movers: VMware Workstation 6.0 or higher, or VMware Player
You may try VMware Player which is also free.

He is NOT talking about the VNX file simulator from EMC – he is asking about the “VNX network simulator” – an open source network simulation tool …
Sound like someone just google – found a hit for VNX and didn’t look whether its actually the same thing

Sometimes, it doesn't work. Try it once again.
