Newbie Question - I dont get a create prompt in the latest Simulator

I've downloaded the vsim_netapp-7m.tgz and installed it on VMware Workstation 10.

It starts up fine.

I select the Ctrl-C

I select option 4 and go through the erase all data  yes yes and then it reboots.

When it finally settles down I get a prompt

please enter the new hostname []

I was expecting a prompt to create a new cluster.

Have I missed something obvious?

You installed the 7mode vsim, so that's the expected behavior.

If you want to create a cluster, use the cluster mode vsim.  (file name ends in -Cm)
