• Can I use the same windows on my virtual machine?

  I had windows pre-installed in my dell laptop (Latitude E6420). I did not have the cd key but I extracted using a program called Magical jelly bean key finder. Now, I have the following information on my windows installation

  Windows 7 Professional Service Pack 1

  Product no.: XXXXXXXX

  Installed from media "OEM."

  Product ID: XXXXX-OEM-XXXXXXXX

  CD Key: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

  Computer name: XXXXX

  Registered owner: XXXXX

  Registered organization: Microsoft
  Now, I want to install linux on my machine and use the current windows in a virtual machine inside the linux host. Is is possible if I completely uninstall this windows of my computer and reinstall the virtual machine with the same key?
  I'm not very familiar with this also can someone guide me what are the steps I have to take if this is possible.

  Hi Andre,

  Thank you for your answer, but this does not completely answer my question. I also read that OEM installation does not install the same windows on another machine (virtual machine is like different machine even if I do this on the same machine) and installation of the mine is OEM type.

  More important still, how install windows in the virtual environment? If I format the computer and install linux, in addition to this install virualbox and install inside windows that use the cd - key and it will work. ? I doubt it because the windows is already activated in this machine.

  The extract of the contract (EULA) for Windows 7 and applies to the retail and OEM of Windows 7 versions. So, Yes, you can reinstall it in a Virtual Machine.

  Yes, you will need to format the machine under Linux, then reinstall Windows 7 in a computer program virtual suitable as Oracle Virtual Box 4.2, VMWare Player 5.0 or VMWare Workstation. You can then use the product key located on the COA sticker to reactivate the license.

• Get use of the resources of all virtual machines in a cluster

  Hello

  I have developed a measure of capacity management report that collects all the use of the resources of the virtual machines in a datacenter. The function that collects it looks like this:

  def hostMemoryConsumed =]

  def memoryConsumed = 0.0f

  def memoryGranted = 0.0f

  VMs. each() {}

  VM->

  try {}

  memoryConsumed += vm.host.memory.consumed.current.average / 1024.0f<----- how="" to="" do="" this="" to="" get="" from="">

  memoryGranted += vm.host.memory.capacity.current.average / 1024.0f

  }

  {} catch (NullPointerException e)

  }

  VMS is a function of type parameter VMS VMW

  The works above for virtual machines in the data center, but I need it to be after cluster. I can find a cluster of virtual machines, but I'm having trouble with referring to specific values for example consumed memory and capacity.

  If I change the type parameter: VMW Cluster how the metric reference would look like (see the try {})?

  I don't think that a query will help me.

  Thanks in advance

  Erik Alm

  If you want to do for a cluster, you can just get the list of virtual machines in a cluster of first and passing in your script.  If you have a function for a VMWCluster you can add a parameter for "vmwCluster" that is underneath and it should give you a table (topologyObjects) that has all the virtual machines in the cluster.

  QS = server.get ("QueryService") / / query Service

  tquery = qs.createStatement("!) (' VMWVirtualMachine where esxServer.parent.name = "+" ' "+ vmwCluster +" "" ") .setQueryTopologyObjects (true);

  topologyObjects = qs.executeStatement (tquery) .getTopologyObjects)

• Help - automation of the ad groups in assigning roles for a virtual machine

  Hi all, I have this doubt.

  We are the migration of vSphere 4.1 and 5.1

  Not by update manager, but manually adding hosts an accumulation 5.1!

  Here's the thing, each virtual machine that will be imported/created/deployed to this new vCenter 5.1 will have a corresponding pre configuration of group by our admin guy!

  For — for example, if the virtual computer name is vm_0123, a group called "SVR_VM_0123" would be ready and waiting to be assigned to this specific virtual machine, and then to a role. And this permission will be set at the virtual machine level.

  And now, all the virtual machines that will be added to 4.1 and 5.1 have their configuration of groups!

  So can automate us the "attribution" permissions on each computer virtual imported/created (a role common to the respective groups) through PowerCLI?

  Questions or suggestions are welcome!

  Thank you

  I assume you have the virtual computer name in the variable $vmName, then you could do

  $vm = get-VM-name $vmName

  New-VIPermission-body $vm - main ("SVR_" + $vmName) - role $role

  You can place these lines in a loop.

  This could be for example a loop, controlled by the content of a CSV file.

  Something like that

  Import-Csv C:\vmnames.csv | %{

  $vm = get - VM - name _.vmName $

  New-VIPermission-body $vm - main ("SVR_" + $_.vmName)-role $_.role

  }

  This means that the CSV file should look like this

  "vmName"; "" role.

  "vm1', 'administrator '.

  "vm2', 'read only '.

• Can I use a SATA drive in the virtual host as a SCSI disk in virtual machine?

  I'm under (64-bit) 2008 R2 RC as host and VMware Workstation 6.5.2. I installed a linux VM, the distribution doesn't really matter, but now I use Debian 5.01 AMT64. I am trying to use SATA drives to the host as drive virtual in the VM, but not successful. Here's what I did.

  -In the virtual machine of VMware Workstation. Add - & gt; hard drive - & gt; use a physical disk - & gt; Choose the device (use entire disk) - & gt; Finishing

  The drive is affected as IDE drive. Here's the first question, I can use it as a SCSI drive? There are only 4 available in CD-ROM and VM IDE drive takes one. I want to be able to use 10 disks.

  -L' use above configuration, if I start the VM, I don't know where devices are. I can't find any device in the name of/dev/hda, / dev/hdb etc.

  Here is my second question. Where are the devices on a virtual computer that were created as virtual disks?

  Hello

  with 2 k 3, you won't have these problems.

  VMware affect physical as IDE disks if the host sees as IDE. He attributes as SCSI host sees the SATA or SCSI drives.

  If you want to change that - you can use this old post of mine. If the descriptor of uncertain post before use you it so that I make the changes.

• How can I get the version of VMware to virtual machines with powercli officer?

  How can I get the version of VMware View Agent running on a virtual machine with powercli or view Powercli?

  As much as I know there is no cmdlet PowerCLI for this, but you can use the Invoke-VMScript cmdlet and interrogate the Win32_Product class.

  By running the following. You can add a Where clause to return only the Agent of the view

• How im can extract the value of the persistence of virtual machine disk?

  Dear friends

  How im can extract the value of the value of the persistence of disks of virtual machines?

  IM using the bellows of the order, I have a if to check if the disks are independent or not

  but im only want values of the persistence of the column to use in my script

  Get-disk hard - vm machine01

  CapacityGB persistence Filename

  ----------      -----------                                                    --------

  10 000 persistent [LUN2] RJ7469SR039/RJ7469SR039.vmdk

  8 000 persistent [rate2] RJ7469SR039/RJ7469SR039_1.vmdk

  Thank you

  Almir

  In your example, you just use Select-Object

  Get-disk hard - vm machine01 | Select the Parent, persistence

  The parent is the name of the virtual machine

• Is there a way to change the connection string to the database by using the command line on the virtual machine?

  Hi, I use 1.5 space Horizon

  can someone help me by telling me where I can change the connection string for the database on the virtual machine itself.

  I was away, and our stuff has been migrated databases to another server. Now my horizon does not connect because it can not find the database. I can either on the hwconfigurator.xxx.com.

  Thank you

  What do you see when you go to https://hwconfigurator.xxx.com?

  You can try to change this property in /usr/local/horizon/conf/runtime-config.properties on your service - will (s) and the server restart of tc by using the command "/etc/init.d/horizon-frontend restart".

• Use of memory in the guest virtual machines

  Hello

  I don't have any background on VMware technology, but we are using a facility of dynamic cloud based on vCloud Director to the company where I work.

  The group that operates the server publishes the offer with a 'pay per use model"of service.

  This is true for the CPU resources, as we pay only what we use in the month. But in my opinion, it does not for the use of the RAM.

  We have Linux VMs that allocate a 4 GB of RAM 'physical' and our monthly bills show that the RAM usage is at 100% for all the month. But when you look at the tools of memory for the virtual machine, you can see that most of the time 50% or even less is used by the guest operating system process.

  This means from a user perspective the RAM price per month should be half of what we are responsible now. Ask operators on the 'question', we always get the answer that the use of the RAM is not dynamic and we need to pay for the use of 100% from the point of view of the server host.

  Could someone share some light on this subject? Is there really no way to make use of the dynamic RAM as the CPU usage?

  Thank you

  Michael

  Evening,

  As a service provider, I'll let you in on the secret:

  It depends on

  vCloud takes care of three models of default allocation.  Your provide may use other

  -Pay for what you use. -pay as you use

  -Allowance - you get resources, but can burst more

  -Booking - you get allocated resources and is

  Chargeback depends on model (in out of the box chargeback... your provider might have something custom)

  Pay as you use - charged on the basis of the resources used

  Allowance - remuneration based on allocation and additional for burst

  Allocate pay based on booking-

  There in the last two models really no way to load except full allowance (i.e. 100% cpu and RAM)

  Statement, I think you have something along the lines of the compensation you are using you mixed with a price system vendor.

  From my experience the resource more used in ESXi clusters in the RAM.  That's really what I buy in clusters of resource... I always need more RAM.  I need no more CPU. In addition, distribution of the CPU to vcloud is made via Ghz is not CPU.   RAM is allocated by GB.   So those set up and I think you suppliers is betting that they will always have to RAM so they charge based on usage not allocation.  While CPU, they have tons while they charge by usage.

  Really, it's just my thoughts... What can charge you on:

  -Ghz processor

  -GB of RAM

  -GB of storage

  How can recharge you:

  -Used

  -Allocated

  So bottom line... they can charge by opportunity they choose not too...

  It will be useful,

• Make a VM use a NIC and all other virtual machines use another?

  Hello, I'm trying to understand how do a virtual computer using a NETWORK card, while all my other reviews VMs share another. Having a hard time to identify ways to implement. Someone knows how to do this?

  I've attached a screenshot of how my network is currently configured, if that helps.

  Thank you

  C

  You can create another group of ports say "VM network 2" and set the grouping of NETWORK adapters active vmnic1 and vmnic0 standby (in front of your current setting). Then add this virtual machine to the network of computer virtual 2. This allows switching between the two network cards. If you want to have the assistance of a NETWORK card all the time, just put a active and other "unused" in a single port and opposite group in the other group, or at the level of the switch. Port group strategy note may substitute the switch level policy.

• Use the diskette of esxi for virtual machines

  Hello
  I would like to set up a lab and I have hp g6 server but just with a single 600 GB sas disk
  is it possible to install esxi on it and also use it as a storage device for virtual machines on?
  I know that I can install esxi on a cool drive but if what I've said, it's possible I prefer to use that

  It's true.

• How can I change the names of directory of virtual machine in VMWare ESXi data storage?

  I've always used host names, but I have changed several times, since the structure is bigger and I now 25 virtual machines. I started renaming to v, s, w - and then their hostname.

  For now, the data store directory is a real mess without the new structure and it bothers me. Is it possible to rename directories? Perhaps using vcenter? I would like to see a beautiful tree as: DWT-win2003, centos5 tpl, tpl-debian6, s-server01, server02-s, w-exchange01, w-mssql01, just as I renamed it to VMS. I tried the migration option, but it only allows for migration between host data warehouses and not to rename the directory that hosts the virtual machine.

  How can I change the my data store directory structure? I have considered changing the paths and edit vmx files to correct the paths, and then add servers to be inventoried. But I don't really know if this can be done without penalty or if there is a better solution.

  the easiest way, continuously needs storage vMotion of the guest.  It renames the folder and the underlying file for the same as the name of object of vCenter. If you don't have much storage vMotion, then turn off the prompt and do a cold migration.

• Using fault tolerant instead of a virtual machine in standby

  Hi all

  I just read a little on the feet.  My company offers a SaaS solution to customers.  We are pretty well everything virtual.  For this simple example, I will say that we have a dedicated server set up for our application we offer to customers.  If something were to go wrong with the application or server (software, not hardware), we have a machine of relief that we can move to in an emergency.  This requires a manual switch, change the IPs, DNS change, change firewall policies, etc. etc.

  I was wondering if we could use FT to handle this.  I understand that FT does not detect a failure, because it of nothing wrong with the material, but is it possible to 'push a button' and start using the copy of the virtual machine?

  I also met HA tracking app.  However, it seems that this option restarts just the virtual machine, which is certainly not what we are looking for.  I may be wrong on the restart, however.

  Any other suggestions or information?

  Thank you!

  Yes, if you only use one vCPU it will work the way that you season - keep in mind the secondary VM is mirrored all that primary VM does if the cause is due to a change to data in the primary VM it will be mirrored in the seodnary VM
