• Can I run a Windows 2003 on VMWare Server with a date system different from that of my current operating system?

  Hi guys,.

  I would like to know if I can install Windows 2003 server using VMWare and run it with a date different system than my current operating system? Is this possible? A quick response would be appreciated.

  Kind regards

  Akshay

  So I guess you are trying to run a virtual of Windows machine running at a date other than the ESX host and the rest of your network. Am I wrong?

  In this case:

  -Do not use VMware time. If you have installed VMware tools open properties of VMware tools on the Options, tab uncheck the option of time synchronization

  -From the services control panel access services 'Windows Time' and set it to disabled and do not forget to stop the service. The service name is W32Time, but its full name is 'Windows Time'

• Generate url for virtual machine installed on vmware server console programmatically

  Hello

  I want to generate URLs for machine vmware console located on vmware server. Are there examples of available in c# code? Any help will be really good.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  There are already several posts/Articles on this subject. What works for ESX should work for VMware Server. The misfortune is that it should be avoided for several reasons:

  (1) there are only a limited number of "consoles" allowed for a given server of VMware

  (2) RDP/VNC is a tool much better for this as there are no such limits

  (3) the security of this method is somewhat limited

  (4) more than one user can access the same VM without protection of the user (essentially a struggle for control)

  So in general, it is best to RDP/VNC in the virtual machine is to use the console.

• To hardware Version 7 computers virtual in VMWare Server 2.0.2 ESXi 5

  Hello world

  Taking his retirement from 2 host vmware server computers.  They run Server 2008 64 with VMWare server 2.0.2.  Each host has 3 VMs Windows, 6 in total, all configured with Hardware Version 7

  The plan is to set up a new host running ESXi 5.  Install, configure and ready for deployment.  After you have configured the data stores, I want to spend my VMs the 2 old servers a new box of ESXi 5.

  I'll copy all virtual machines from the old servers to individual folders on my Windows 7 Desktop and use the vSphere client to load the virtual machines on new data stores.

  I read that ESXi 5 can read Version 7 VMs.  Does this mean I can use the virtual machine as is, or still need to convert the hard?  I would like to convert them before their download?  I'm a little gray in this area...

  Can you get it someone more experienced please let me know the step by step... or a link to a good "how to" I would really appreciate it.

  Thank you

  There is nothing for you. VMware Converter takes care of this. It will not only increase the size of the disc, but also the size of the partition.

• Configure a virtual firewall VMWare Server 2

  Hello

  I'm configuring a virtual machine which will act as a firewall ISA Server. The machine is now running on a physical machine. I used VMWare Converter to change it to a virtual machine. However, I am unable to set up the configuration of the network. For after this post: http://www.cs.drexel.edu/~vp/VirtualFirewall/ I should create a network invited only to the internal network and a connection open in the external network.

  This last little is where the problems come. The external network has a mask of 255.255.255.252 network, so I have only 2 IP address in the network: 1 the host machine and the other is for the default gateway. Implementation of bridged networks is therefore not an option. I tried setting up guest network only on the external interface, but then VMWare server is unbootable. (The DCHP server on/dev/vmet1 does not start).

  Operation of the machine I have RHEL 5 host OS. It has 2 physical NIC, 1 connected to the internal network and externally 1. Is there perhaps a way to Server2 VM I can ask the network adapter connected to the external network exclusively for this virtual machine? Or is there maybe a better way to implement?

  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

  You can use fill or NAT if you need to communicate outside the host. You cannot configure 'host-only' on the physical map, because this isn't 'host-only' more.

  If you cannot use open due to lack of IP addresses (as a virtual bridged interface needs its own IP address) you can use NAT. In this case, the host acts as a NAT proxy to the client (your firewall). To the outside world only the IP address of the will be visible. The customer will receive an IP address from the VMnet8 virtual network (if you are using DHCP, you can use a static IP address in the range of addresses network IP VMnet8).

  But you must forward packets to the port prompt if there is no communication initiated from the outside at the prompt.

• A machine virtual de VMware player can be saved on an external HDD for backup?

  Please allow me to set up the scene: I have a shadow PC from my main system on VMware Player

  I try an update on my 1st VM player. The update for my distro of choice borks the system, or at least a very important application. My corrections to the application can do worse things & this my system borks. I then delete the virtual machine.

  Now after this deletion, I do a reinstall Virtual complete. Then wait and see if a fix is coming in the next update.

  If I copy/home/username/vmware/opensuse to an external USB HARD drive.

  Is it possible after deleting a virtual machine in the drive to go to my USB and pick up my copy of opensuse in/home/username/vmware/and have it function like the old?

  Hey there,

  You can stop to the bottom of the virtual machine, copy the VM on your external HARD drive and be prepared to restore it if it breaks.

  If this post was useful/solved your problem, please mark the points of wire and price as seem you. Thank you!

• Longmode required to run the machine virtual 64-bit - ESXi5

  I have a PC with processor i3 intel VT and Intel 64-bit enable in the BIOS. In addition to this, I installed windows 7 64-bit ultimate and then installed Vmware workstation 7.

  On this woekstation, I installed ESXi5 without any problems and when I connect to VI cline tof ESXi5 and when I tried to create 64 bit VM, it gives me an error like below, when you start the virtual machine.

  This virtual computer is configured for 64-bit guest operating system. However, 64-bit performance is not possible. Longmode is disable for this virtual machine.

  Please find attached snapshot of the configuration of the virtual machine and error.

  I'm 100% sure that Intel VT is enabled in the BIOS.

  Please help on this.

  Kind regards

  If you are wanting to run nested 64 bit guests then the basic hypervisor has to ESXi 5 / 8 Workstation or Fusion 4.  For nested 32-bit clients is not the case.

• Move a machine virtual in Vmware Fusion (Mac) of Vmware Workstation (PC)

  I guess that most people worry about how to move a virtual machine from the PC to Mac. I have exactly the opposite need.

  Will there be a way to migrate toward the back of the Mac to the PC? VMware Workstation recognizes as virtual machines created with the merger?

  I agree with etung provide a list of files.  The virtual machine has been turned off when you have copied the disk NTFS?  Do you have pictures?  I usually don't use snapshots and always make sure that the virtual machine is turned off before changing platforms, but the error message sounds like you can't be in the same State before performing the copy.

• Run a machine virtual 64-bit on ESX4i with an Intel Core2Quad Q9450

  I try to install Windows Server 2008 R2 which only runs on 64-bit processor.

  I managed to install on a Core i7 CPU but even if I updated the OS setting in

  Windows Server 2008 R2 64-bit, the installion CD tell me that I can't install it

  on a 32-bit CPU...

  The Q9450 is not compatible with 64-bit virtualization?

  I won't be able to install 2 WS2008 R2 DCs on 2 different ESX4i host.

  belangermtl wrote:

  I restarted the ESX4i host and the BIOS has active VT - d.  All the other options are enabled.

  VT - d is not relevant.  However, if all other options are enabled, this could be your problem.  Note that "the execution of confidence" must be disabled.

  Maybe I have to start with the ISO talking about VMware Knowledge Base article.

  After that, I could use the special parameter in ESX4i workaround with some CPUS where

  some core are not active VT...

  ESXi does not workaround for a buggy BIOS.  The privileged setting, that you reference is available in hosted only products.

• DC virtual in VMWare Server virtual network configuration

  I'll put up a virtual AD network on a virtual server installation.  The host machine is supposed to be portable (i.e. the LAN IP will change, and it may be offline from time to time).  I'm trying to set up the first machine on my network, the virtual domain controller.  I don't know what to specify for the default gateway.

  Currently, on the domain controller, IPv4 is configured as follows:

  1 = bridged network adapter

  IP address: 192.168.131.1

  Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

  Default gateway: (empty)

  Preferred DNS: 127.0.0.1

  Alternate DNS: 64.71.255.198

  Should I leave it like that, or specify one virtual network cards as the default gateway?

  Without a default gateway, you will not be able to route to the DNS server that you specified: auxiliary DNS: 64.71.255.198

  If you think you have all the traffic in your MS local virtual (hosting IE everything than ob this host and always keeping local traffic), then no DG not required, but I suspect you'll want to make the web etc as you go along, if you need a DG to be routable

• Import of existing virtual machines to VMware server

  My company has several virtual machines created with VMware Server 2.0.  We want to do a proof of concept for virtualization in production using ESXi environment.  Instead to install guest OS on a new machine of ESXi freash, is it possible to import a virtual machine created in VMware Server 2.0?  This should earn a quite some time.  Also, if possible, ESXi accesses a UBS device to copy the files of the virtual machine locally, that is, a USB HDD?  If this is not the case, can use us the VM converter to move to ESXi?

  Thanks for your help.

  RC

  Check the converter.  Probably the easiest option.

• VMware server does not recognize my cpu

  Hello.

  I installed debian squeeze on an IBM x 3650 M2 wth a quad core xeon E5504

  I use 2.6.32 - 3-vserver-686-bigmem in kernel and if I cat/proc/cpuinfo I can see all 4 core.

  VMware server is correctly installed and now 2 virtual machine is running, but I see in the web gui:

  Processors Intel Xeon E5504 processor @ 2.00GHz 1 CPU x 2 hearts

  any suggestions?

  Hello

  Yes, your server and the cpu are supported for ESX (i) 3.5 U4 and superior.

  In the VMWare compatibility guide, nothing is said about compatibility with vmware server 2.

  If you check the compatible processors in the guide to vmware server 2 , you'll see vmware server just supports until the Intel Xeon Quad Core 5300 series, not the new series 5400 or 5400. That's why vmware server 2 recognizes your Quad Core E5504 as Dual Core. Because it does not support your CPU.

  IMHO, if I were you, I'll try to use your server esxi 4.0 U1. It is a best product of vmware server virtualization and supports your CPU.

  Best wishes / Saludos.

• The passage to vSphere VMWare Server 2.0?  How?

  Hello-

  I hope someone can point me in the right direction here.

  I'm under VMWare Server 2.0 on a box of 2300 Windows R2.  After having proven virtualization to management, I bought vSphere. Now I see that I need help to determine the best place to start with this migration project.  I have several questions, I hope someone can help with.

  #1.  VMWare Server 2.0 is the box now have is that I want to use with VSphere.  The problem I have is that I have four virtual servers running on this box.  Y at - it a conversion utility to move in and outside this area of VMware Server 2.0 in vSphere environment?   Is it possible to move to something like a Dell EqualLogix (which I have) and box of your choice in the vSphere environment? Should I worry about what it is?  If Yes, what?

  #2.  I have four physical servers that I will be the conversion to vSphere?  Is there a tool to help with this?

  Tips, links to documentation and of course any help is greatly appreciated!

  Thank you!

  Hello

  Welcome to the VMware community forums!

  Basically the answer boils down to the use of VMware vCenter Converter

  But if you want to reuse the same box for vSphere/ESX you have a little problem with that chickens and eggs for the existing virtual machine

  You can however copy the VM out there to external storage and import them manually in vSphere later.

  To do this, you may need to use the vmkfstools command line tool to import the disks in the correct format.

  Hope this helps,

• VMware Server to the conversion of systems vSphere 4 comments

  If all goes well, that's what someone has an answer to.  We have a remote site that is finally supported in our main data center.  Unfortunately, there is an overlap of the intellectual property and a very slow network connectivity between the two, so we cannot just P2V as I prefer.  Because they were themselves and do their own thing, they have added a number of systems in the environment as guests of VMware Server.  I have the fun work to transfer these to the vSphere environment 4 in our data center.  I can copy the systems out of their VMware Server and get them in the network share in our datacenter, can I get them even imported into the environment vSphere data store.  But I can't seem to get them to be recognized, imported or otherwise to turn on.

  I get errors of "cannot read the.
  blah.vdmk store file' to have in the data, adding, and lack of power due to a broken pipe or something else.

  Does anyone have any ideas or solutions for this?

  Thank you

  Steve

  You can use the converter to bring these virtual machines in your vSphere environment-
