• Power and turn off the virtual machine

  I write some scripts to turn off a virtual computer and power on the virtual machine.  Can someone please tell me what commands that I use to power on a virtual machine and a virtual computer power off, if this is possible.

  Thank you

  Depends on if you have the VMware tools running.

  (1) without tools

  Get-VM  | Stop-VM
  

  (2) with tools

  Get-VM  | Shutdown-VMGuest
  

  The 2nd method let the OS do stop.

  The first method is the power Cup.

  For power on you can use

  Get-VM  | Start-VM

• Turn off the virtual machine to remove the snapshot?

  I discovered that, even though my Snapshot Manager says that there are no photos, I have several virtual machines with the snapshot files. I tried to create a new snapshot and then remove it, but it does not work. I tried to shut down the VM, and then create a snapshot and remove - that works. What is the difference? Why would it works when the virtual computer is disabled but does not work when the virtual machine is turned on?

  And even if you go to snapmgt you can not delete them?

  Download rvtools tool, there is an instant writer and see if there's trully snaps and might send a screnn for me!

• HOW CAN I GET WINDOWS XP IS INSTALLED AFTER THE REMOVAL OF WINDOWS 7?

  When I bought my computer that he had installed Windows 7 and I got a trial of 60, because I couldn't afford to buy the software, I deleted windows 7 and am trying to install my purchased Windows XP, but it is blocked because the computer says I have a newer version of windows and so it will not let me install XP.  What can I do?

  Assuming that your computer supports XP (XP device drivers are available), then first delete the existing partition of Windows 7 (do not delete the partition recovery in case you want to revert to windows 7 at a later date). Then partition and format the hard disk during installation.

• When a snapshot is complete, so I can start to make changes to the virtual machine?

  When I take a snapshot in merge, a progress bar appears in the window of virtual computer, then disappears in a few seconds.

  But a picture of a clock also appears on the Fusion icon in the dock. Only the clock takes a minute or two to disappear.

  What process is the clock?  What is the take a complete snapshot?  When the progress bar disappears, or when the clock disappears?

  Can I safely begin to make changes to the virtual machine, I want to be able to restore, immediately after the progress bar disappears?

  Or, it is more prudent to wait to make changes until the clock disappears?

  Thank you

  (The progress bar and the clock appear in my Fusion 3 that I use always happy... I don't know what appears in more recent versions).

  While the stopwatch turns, Fusion is busy writing the snapshot to disk, so the performance of your comments and your host could be reduced.

  As long as the performance isn't an obstacle, you can continue to use the virtual machine while the snapshot is taken.  Merger will ensure that the snapshot includes the exact state of the virtual machine at the moment, you started the snapshot: nothing of what you are doing inside the guest, while the snapshot is in progress does not affect the State of the socket.

  See you soon,.

• Failed to create snapshot - now I can not start the virtual machine.

  Hi guys,.

  I took a snapshot of my VM and got the error:

  Cannot open disk ' / vmfs/volumes/xxxxxxxx.vmdk' or one of the snapshot disks it depends on.

  Reason: Invalid drive string: cannot mix ESX and hosted style discs in the same chain.

  I deleted the snapshot in the Snapshot Manager, but my VM will always start (same error)

  Can anyone help? Its a vanilla install, just 1 VM on it.

  Thanks in advance

  Always pointing the Flash disk VMX configuration file. Whenever you remove the Flash disk, the drive-VMX configuraiton must be updated correctly. In your case it does not somehow. Anyway, lets get a work around.

  1 take the backup of the VMX configuration file

  2. edit the VMX file

  3 scsi0:0.fileName = "QFES_1.2.25 - RHEL52_x86.vmdk" (Please check the VMDK file name correctly it)

  4. save the file

  5. turn on the virtual machine

  Check your luck now

• create the virtual machine from windows NT 4 server with adaptec raid 5

  I have an old Dell (1998) server running windows NT 4.0 sp6a.  He had a raid 5 configuration using the controller raid adaptec SCSI 2940.  2 discs failed who broke the raid set.  I had a disk recovery company to recover the data and they have scratched off readers and gave me a SATA with all volumes.  I found a procedure to create a virtual hard disk (.vhd) and then converted to a hard and used to create a virtual machine in VMware workstation 7.  When I turn on the virtual machine, it begins the process of starting windows, shows the boot menu, select normal or mode VGA, goes through the process of NTdetect, display processor and memory but then gives a BSOD with the message inaccessible_boot_device.

  I changed the hard to affect the buslogic ddb.adaptertype, but it gave me the same problem.

  is there a different driver that I need for an adaptec raid controller or if the typical SCSI drivers should work?  If the typical SCSI drivers should work, so my problem might be in my Boot.ini because it shows that he is supposed to start on the partition (4) and this sata drive may not have scores exactly as they were on the raid configuration.  I tried to mount the volumes not in read-only mode, but the partition that I need to change the boot.ini file is partition (2) what mapping VMware won't let me open mode not readonly.  whenever I have, select it and it opens the partition (1) mode not readonly.

  I know this sounds complicated then I hope I described with precision.

  Hello
  I live in Germany, but my internal clock seems to be adapted to the New York Times.
  Very useful, because most repairs or recovery to the VMware is done the evening or at night.
