32-bit guest operating system installed on ESXi 5 but still shows CPU 64-bit

Hi all:

I installed a guest operating system 32-bit RH6.2 on ESXi 5

vmware_install1.jpg

But when I try to create 32-bit applications, it seems that the CPU is 64-bit

vmware_install2.jpg

Is this something that I'm not just doing?

Thank you very much

Morgan Yang

The virtual machine behaves exactly like a physical machine in this regard.  Installation of a 32 bit OS does not make your CPU a 32-bit CPU.

If you want to disable the 64-bit mode, add the following advanced configuration option:

monitor_control.disable_longmode = TRUE

  • Installation of a guest operating system

    Hey guys,.

    I am trying to install a guest operating system in an ESXi 5 using the vSphere Client 5, but no matter what I choose as source CD / DVD for the virtual machine, he repeated to me that it is not found, I tried customer CD/DVD, ISO image, host device and I get the same for all.

    Before ask you, Yes, I didn't click the button connect/disconnect cd/DVD devices and chose the right one, but I get nothing, any ideas what I might be missing?

    Thank you

    Just to be safe. Did you download the ISO on a VMFS datastore file (for example using the datastore browser) and connect the ISO from there. Also, make sure that "Connect at Power On" is checked in the virtual CD-ROM drive of the virtual machine.

  • Surface Pro 3 - errors when you try to start a guest operating system 64-bit

    I get the following errors setting up an Ubuntu guest operating system.

    This virtual machine is configured for 64-bit operating systems. However, the 64-bit mode is not possible.

    This host supports Intel VT - x, but Intel VT - x is disabled.

    Intel VT - x can be disabled if it has been disabled in the BIOS/firmware settings or host was not powered by bicycle since changing this setting.

    (1) check that the settings BIOS/firmware activate Intel VT - x and disable "trust execution."

    2 turn on the host if either of these BIOS/firmware settings have been changed.

    (3) turn on the host if you have not done since the installation of VMware Workstation.

    (4) update of the BIOS/firmware from the host to the latest version.

    I've been Googling this problem since yesterday and so far, I have not come to any possible solution. Certainly, I can install the 32-bit linux flavor, but that doesn't help me when I run the installation to other 64-bit operating systems.

    I was able to resolve the issue, after most googleing. I'm always a little surprised that it works, but hey, Ubuntu is installing.

    I installed Microsoft Visual Studio, including phone windows SDK (must be included).  I disabled and then Hyper-V by issued this command in a shell of administrator command:

    bcdedit/set hypervisorlaunchtype

    If you want to reactivate it, you then type this command

    bcdedit/set auto hypervisorlaunchtype

  • What iso (HR) Centos to use when installing on VM guest operating system?

    When you install a guest operating system Centos 5.5 on a VSphere VM, I'm a bit puzzled by this what iso i386 to download & install.

    • DVD: seems to be the right choice for me, although large

    • CD 1 of 7: will probably ask me to mount other CD.

    • the netinstall CD: should work if the virtual machine has network connectivity good to contribute to the installation

    Thanks in advance for all advice here... Lyle

    I always use DVD iso file (download via bittorrent client). Not only that you get everything you need in a single iso file, but it is easier to manage on the data store (where you keep the iso files OS). Locate a mirror which seems to be more close to where you are (in the world/country) and allows to start with. Of course, your connection speed will dictate how long it takes to download the file. I also usually download files iso of OS at home, so that I don't have to worry about sucking to the top of the bandwidth in the office, and I have no need to worry about a firewall rule prevents me to get the files.

    Once the installer has spent three or four cd iso files, I opted to enter the DVD ISO... It's simply more light and to download the iso DVD because it does not worry about change iso files during installation, or have several virtual cd/dvd drives connected to a single virtual machine. It is also faster set-up, because that's what reading the single iso file, not seven.

  • Is it possible to have the 64-Bit and 32-bit operating system installed on the same computer?

    * Original title: installation of window OS

    Hi all

    In my system, it's already installed 64-bit Windows 7 Ultimate. I want to install 32-bit Windows 7 Home Premium. Is it possible to have two operating system installed on the same computer? Can I do it?

    PL, guide me positively.

    Best regards

    Kapil Kumar.

    The amount of RAM is okay as long as you have a minimum of 2 GB installed. Even if you have more than 4 GB, it would not matter, Windows 7 Home Premium just won't recognize it.

    In respect with the both, you can set up a dual-boot configuration. Please note that you must have a unique product key to activate Windows 7 Home Premium.

    See the instructions how to set up a partition:

    http://www.groovypost.com/HOWTO/dual-boot-Windows-10-other-versions-Windows/

    References Windows 10, but the same instructions for Windows 7 also work.

    Click Start, right-click computer, click on manage

    Click on disk management

    Select the system partition in which Windows 10 is installed. Right-click, and then click on cut.

    Enter the amount of space you want to allocate to Windows 7 or Windows 8.1, then click on cut. The more, the better.

    An unallocated partition will now be available. Right-click, and then click New Simple Volume

    This will start the wizard new Simple Volume, which will allow you to format, assign a drive letter and volume label.

    Once your partition is ready, you are now ready to install Windows 7

    Boot from the Windows 7 Home Premium disc, then

    Click Custom (advanced option)

    Select the partition we created earlier, and then click Next.

    Wait for the copy of the Windows installation files.

  • Is it possible to install multiple copies of Windows 7 in Virtualbox as guest operating system

    Hello

    My laptop runs on Linux OS, I installed VirtualBox. Now, I would like to install multiple copies of Windows 7 on VirtualBox as a guest operating system.

    Is this possible?

    My activation will expire after 3 installations?

    What are the limits in this situation?

    Microsoft treats several facilities in VirtualBox (as guest operating system) as a single installation instance? I think that the hardware (motherboard) is used as a fingerprint to detect changes in the systems, but as the material is going to be the same custom installation will be treated as a single instance?

    Help, please...

  • Trouble installing the guest operating system

    All,

    Having trouble installing the guest operating system - Windows XP SP3. I followed the directions of the booklet that I try to boot from a local image and a CD. I can't able to get into the setup of the BIOS to start the virtual machine when you press F8. I am currently on a decentralized network that starts his BONES from a PXE server. When I turn on my VM, its shows the boot process than my actual desktop. I tried many configurations, but still problems. All instight would be useful. Thank you.

    Welcome to the forums!

    To enter the VMWare guest BIOS press F2, no F8.

    You can also add 'bios. BootDelay = 10000 "in the prompt .vmx file. This gives you more time to press F2.

    The virtual guest has a CD-ROM attached to it?

    Is it "connect to turn on?

    Is it connected to the physical machine (where the OS CD is inserted)?

  • The VM startup slow down, delay long before the guest operating system begins startup

    Evaluation of VMWare to set up the VM for the maintenance of the software. Set up a virtual machine, install Windows 7 SP1 32-bit, everything works well. Once started, the performance is excellent.

    The symptom is that when you start the virtual machine, either starting from cold boot or suspend, there is a significant delay before the power of VMware on / start screen is displayed. Once it appears, the operating system starts starting (or the recovery of wakefulness) quickly and performance is normal after that. During the start-up period, the whole system is insensitive, host and guest operating system.

    See the extract of newspaper below to 09:54:28.619 moment where the delay occurs followed by the entry concerning 09:55:11.625 time when start continues, a delay of 43 seconds during which nothing seems to happen and the system does not respond. After that, everything is fast.

    Any ideas or suggestions?

    Hello

    I know what you want to say as I've seen sometimes as well. But especially on older hardware or if there are problems with regard to particular resources. For example I saw this on an ESX host (yes I know product different) where there was a problem with the storage not enough providing IOPS / s.

    I saw also this on older versions of Linux (IIRC 7) workstation where the host had an Atom based CPU, there I updated to more RAM and a more recent version of the workstation and the problem disappeared.

    Then I also saw it on the 4/5 merger when my host operating system was out of memory and I tried to start another operating system to prompt anyway.

    I do not consider a normal behavior for the slow start and does not respond, it is an indication that the hypervisor is seeking some resources, but does not receive them fast enough.

    The reasons can be many. Indeed things like antivirus could be biting you if she tries to analyze all files (including virtual disks) at their opening.

    FWIW, I also understand the support response as would be expected if your host is a bit thin on the resources (for example, trying to start a VM 1 GB on a host Win7 with only 3.5 GB of RAM) and if the virtual machine runs OK after the initial startup delay, it's mostly just an annoyance.

  • Performance problem with the guest operating system

    Hello gurus - I have one of the most unusual questions, I ran into a few time.   Here it is:

    I have a guest w2008R2 OS - installed in a 5.1 version of VM 7 vSpherer - which has an Emulex LPe 12002-E 8 GB dual HBA port is assigned to the as 2 PCI (1 device per port) via DirectPath devices

    The guest operating system has an application that performs backup tests.   WWPN of the HBA is zoned in the fabric and declared in the interface of Compellent Storage Center and everything is good here. the application creates a replay of a volume, mount it as a drive, read all the blocks, then dismantles and moves then repeat the process with what ever additional volumes should be safeguarded.   It is so cool I have do this with a VM right and not a physical host?  (would be cool if I had work NPIV but that's another story, not with technology HBA vendor support...)

    So, what's the problem?   Well, the bed the mounted disk backup will work extremely slow as slow as 5MB\sec flow, then during any other activity takes place on the system the flow jumps up to 150MB\sec all of a sudden and will continue to run fast for a long time and finish jobs on time with each work taking a little more than an hour.  But when the slow going the same work (all jobs are the same, they are simply by reading all the blocks of a bunch of 200 GB volumes and wrote a set of NULL value, do not forget this is just test) takes up to 10 hours to complete.

    I think that what is the culprit?   POWER MANAGEMENT.

    I have just about each performance counter and the journal of events known to man and I don't see anything abnormal on the table, ESXi virtual machine, nothing.  But what I see in the newspapers is any kind of activity that could happen in a transparent manner to save energy.

    FACTS on this case:

    -Reservation of memory is defined (it must be for directpath otherwise, you can't power on the virtual machine)

    -Booking CPU - has not been defined before an hour ago, I gave her just a small reserve for this rule, so I do not know if this will help alleviate the slow flow, or have an effect on what I think is a question of power (unit linked) management

    -windows power management is set to high performance never-ever - but not until an hour there doesn't I changed advanced settings for USB Disabled------turned off.  PCI peripheral energy saving setting was already off.  Which is in contradiction with my theory.  But maybe, just maybe, something is broken somewhere, or could be a bug... blah blah blah

    -the HBA, Emulex, as it appears in Device Manager in the guest OS doesn't have a power management tab to disable the feature, I don't see that the adapter VMXNET3 had this tab, and I turn off the power save setting to be conservative, do not think that it was the culprit, but as there is no real data running through the NIC.  The data is simply to be read from the disk mounted, not copied on any wire Ethernet.  never the less, in the Emulex properties is a Details tab and a selection of power data, and performance data indicate you what power mode, the device is, as well as feeding supported systems.  D0: full power, but D3, which shows as supported by the device, is an energy saving mode.   I could not yet attend the setting at the time of slow activity, my good intention as soon as possible. He is currently shooting in D0, full power.

    This is so what I have to offer on this, I hope that its just...   If I'm missing something, or if others have experienced this massive loss of unknown flow without reason and have resolutions, please share.

    If there is a way for me to disable power on the Emulex HBA management inform you please, I don't mind if I stop to enter the firmware, if that was even possible.  But if possible I would disable it immediately before any new tests are executed.

    The root cause of this issue has never been identified by VMware support which for me is a question of ugly.  Reservation of CPU for the VM using directpath IO with HBA installed in it corrected the problem.  I'd be leary with direct path IO.
