Can't get OS USB host for the installation of a new virtual machine

I am trying to create my first VM in VSphere client. All my other machines have been migrated to Hyper-V machine. I created the machine but can't load of windows server 2003 r2 32 bit OS ISO. I tried several ways to no success.

The virtual machine just says: operating system not found. The first way I tried was put the installation disc in the VSphere host and modify the virtual machine settings to point to the CD-ROM. It did not work.

The second way, I tried was by clicking on the icon of the disk to the VM Console and choosing iso on the local disk. I then navigate to the iso file. When I did this it remains stuck in the connection. Even after I change this setting if I try to go back to the icon of the drive console he says always login no matter what I do on the parameters of the virtual machine. Can I stop it trying to connect?

The third way, that I tried was to stick to a USB to the VSphere host. However, I can't understand how to assign the virtual machine to USB. I noticed that when I plug my USB key, it says USB configuration has changed in the events, but I do not see the USB drive as an option under storage.

The fourth way that I tried was to use WINSCP for SFTP the ISO for the data store. When I do this need me in the root directory that has only about 100 MB of space on it. So it allows me to start the transfer of the iso and the error. How can I change this?

I'm really frustrated about something which I think should be really easy. Any help is appreciated.

You have access to vCenter?

If so, this video shows how to download an ISO: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6v8GsWJ9dc

If you get your ISO on the data store that you can navigate to it through the client vSphere (console) to the virtual machine, do not forget to set the "connect on startup' or 'Connected' when you configure the virtual machine's CD drive.

[Edit] Boot from USB can sometimes be a problem, if you need to boot from USB you can use a like Plop Boot Manager, it is an ISO standard, you can load into the virtual machine CD player. More info here: http://www.vladan.fr/great-tip-how-to-boot-from-usb-image-in-vmware-workstation/ ... It's for workstation, but it works for ESXi 5.0 as well.

    It seems that you use a mass storage device that works with USB 2.0.

    But don t you need not worry. You can work with this storage, but not so fast as it wants...

  • I can't get rid of thanks for the update of firefox or modules at startup

    Whenever I run Firefox, in addition to my home page, I get "Thanks for the update" pages of Mozilla, colorful tabs, No Script and Undo Closed Tabs Button. I tried all the usual methods to get rid of them (reset the home page, and al.) and nothing does not remove the Add-ons (and it does not work for the Mozilla page!). It is not only annoying, but it significantly slows down Firefox the.

    I like Firefox and use since it began and I don't want to stop now, but this inability to control it is frustrating and, frankly, disappointing. I hope that the tendency to become more like other browsers does not speed; for many users, the fact that Firefox was not like the others is what has him us in the first place.

    I'd appreciate any help to solve my dilemma.

    Hello, this can happen when firefox is not able to correctly save preferences in the profile folder. Please try this: click on the menu button, then click on Help (?) > troubleshooting information > profile folder - 'show the file'. then a new window will open. in this search on a file named user.js window (it can be used to overwrite your custom settings). where it is present, delete or rename this file and then restart firefox.

  • How can I get a monthly subscription for the creative cloud with the student discount?

    I am a student and am therefore eligible for the reduced student price but I don't want a yearly subscription. I need only really creative cloud for about 3-4 months, but the option to purchase at least seems available when purchasing as an individual. Apparently if I cancel a paid annual monthly for a year, I have to pay 50% of the price for the rest I'm not interested in the practice. How can I buy a subscription for only a few months at the student price?

    Fix. There is no option for month student price.

    Your choice:

    12 month student price $ 19.99/month = $240

    4 months $ 75 / month (individual regular) = $300

  • How to find all the controller ID: target used for the mapping of RDM on virtual machine

    I want to get a list of all the target ID used for ROW mapping on each controller.  Then next time, I can use the remaining ID of the target for RDM disk mapping using the perl script.

    I checked findVMsWithRDMs.pl but it shows an ID used target for each disc RDM. I use 5.5 ESXi servers and SDK for perl.

    Thank you

    Celine

    You will have to list all config.hardware.device devices, and then find the raw disk support type (to select the ROW).  Then look at the number of drive.  Then use it's value of controllerKey to get the controllers in config.hardware.device with the corresponding key and then get its value busNumber.  So it's busNumber:UnitNumber for the SCSI ID.

    You'll probably want to get all used SCSI identification numbers (use a hash such as BusNumber:UnitNumber-1 online).  Then you can quickly search number the first available bus.  That's what I generally find a free SCSI ID to add a new disk (including the ROW).

  • Belvedere on the installer of Windows 7 virtual machine on the server

    We currently have a SCADA running Lookout 6.0.2 and you want to upgrade to 6.7.1.

    I interested him running Lookout 6.7.1 on Windows 7 virtual machine on a server.

    Someone has done this? Have tested the lookout 6.7.1 on a PC with Windows 7, I have no idea if the lookout will run on the virtual machine.

    Is - this in anyway beneficial define Lookout this way? Need information please.

    All the ma, but two of my servers run under VMs on Hyper-V.  The other two are running on (remote) VMware enterprise configurations.  Everything works beautifully.   I use Ethernet Server series brands such as Moxa or Pearl for any devices that are not native ethernet.  I even ran Ethernet USB on a few occasions, but that can be risky.

  • Problem with New-OSCustomizationSpec during the deployment of a new virtual machine

    Hi all, I'm having a problem trying to deploy a VM from a script.  I started with this thread LucD code: https://communities.vmware.com/message/2220479#2220479. I'll start with the Basic code that I use:

    $myCluster = Get-Cluster -Name "Cluster1" | Get-ResourcePool "Test"
    $myTemplate = Get-Template -Name "Win 2008 R2 SP1 Std - Powershell"
    $myDatastoreCluster = Get-DatastoreCluster -Name "DataStoreCluster1"
    $myVM = "Adam12"
    $IP = "10.0.0.1"
    $SubnetMask = "255.255.255.0"
    $Gateway = "10.0.0.254"
    $DNS = "10.0.0.10","10.0.0.11"
    
    Get-OSCustomizationSpec -Name "Server 2008 R2 Standard - Powershell" | New-OSCustomizationSpec -Name temp -Type NonPersistent
    Get-OSCustomizationSpec -Name temp | Get-OSCustomizationNicMapping | Set-OSCustomizationNicMapping -IpMode UseStaticIP -IpAddress $IP -SubnetMask $SubnetMask -DefaultGateway $Gateway -Dns $DNS
    
    New-VM -Name $myVM -Location "Folder1" -Template $myTemplate -Datastore $myDatastoreCluster -ResourcePool $myCluster -OSCustomizationSpec temp
    
    

    Very simple.  Now I can use the New - VM above command directly against the template and the OSCustomizationSpec, and that works just fine (and of course manually provisioning works as well).  However, as soon as I try to make a new one and use the 'temp' specification, the virtual machine never gets to the name change process and I ended up get an error oobe indicating "impossible Windows analyze or process the unattend answer file."  I noticed in the Summary tab in vSphere that the IP address is correct on this basis, but the name of the server never changes the name of the original model.

    I stripped down and got out of line 10 above (static IP address setting) and just left it to DHCP and it doesn't have the same way.  Any ideas on what could be the cause?  Everything else works, it puts the virtual machine in the correct folder, the data store right pole and the pole of the right.

    As a bonus question: after all what I have read, VM storage profiles are not accessible via PowerCLI.  This changed at all?  It would be good to set the profile in a script instead of having to do it manually after the fact.  Thank you!

    Adam

    Answering my own post here...

    Seems that it works if I create the New OsCustomizationSpec with - Type persistent instead of NonPersistent.  I'm on vSphere 5.0 and 5.0 with PowerCLI 5.1 ESXi, if my guess is that those of you who have found this works are on vSphere 5.1.

    I'm just starting my big 5.5 update, so I'll re - visit it at that time.  For now, I'll just to create a random variable of 8 characters for the temporary custspec and remove it when the virtual machine is deployed.  Seems to work fine and I can have several builders of VMs at various locations without stepping on each other.

  • Adding the OS to a new Virtual Machine

    Hello

    I am trying to add another data store that would simply be a mapped, drive so I chose "Network File System"... I specify the server by its ip address, the shared folder is a windows mapped drive... example is/flights/vol0/datastore-001... .this who do I enter to simply add the windows share drive because it is where is my iso and where I put the cd to boot from to start the generation of the image...

    The method that you use is for adding a NFS data store - you cannot use a standard Windows sharing as a data store.

    On the contrary - power on the VM - then select the option to connect CD/DVD (it's a menu option) - select ISO on Windows sharing and virtual computer must be able to access - obviously you will need to be sure to only select the CD drive to boot from the boot order.

    If you want the iso on the data store - you can download the ISO using the datastore browser - but to use a separate data for housing iso media store, models etc. If you choose to do, then you can plug the iso in the virtual machine settings.

    Post edited by: java_cat33 - line added referring to download the iso file on datastore etc.
