Cold VMware Clone software

• best clone software

  I managed to install El Capitan.

  The biggest problem, I had to install an iSCSI driver.

  But I managed to do it using an old dashboard and legacy Java.

  A little difficult to install, but it works now!

  I wanted to make a clone of this disc.

  I used superduper, but he don't clone them as it says in their description:

  "except temporary files and the system that Apple recommends exclusion".

  That's where my driver must be, because when I cloned my Sys disk, on the clone, I had the same problem, my power was not mounted.

  I spent a day to install all the drivers and software necessary and do not really want to reinstall everything and return the Maverick.

  I have read, I can clone a drive in disk utility, but it will also bring the sys on the new diskette files?

  Or is there any software do better?

  Carbon copy clone

  or, the good old rsync (for less complete clone)

• Sorry to ask, what is hot cold vs clone clone?

  I know, talk of a newb question.  I read cold clone hot and for the DCs for everything else?  That's fine, but I don't know what these terms mean.

  For a P2V, a clone of hot is a direct migraton when the source is turned on.  Is a clone of cold is a migration of the source, while power is off.

• I need some advice on how to upgrade my MBP mid 2010 HDD to SDS without using clone software

  Unfortunately, I had resisted the upgrade of the OS and kept my Snow Leopard running for a few weeks when the incompatibility of the various things became a nuisance I took the plunge and upgraded to OS El Capitan. That pretty much killed my hard drive. It kept failing good start and eventually when it did, no matter what function took forever to action. I took it to the Genius Bar and after a few tests it came with hard drive failure. In accordance with the notice given to me - I was told I should buy a Samsung EVO 850 and it would take me 10 minutes to install and simply use time machine to move my data.

  I can happily work on people, but the machines seem to much more complex.

  I decided to do a little reading and now am a little stuck and confused as clearly this is not so simple.

  I have a SATA cable / USB. I think I know how to mount the SSD with the SATA connection format and then fresh install OS El Capitan.

  The thing to note is that my MBP has been an erratic behavior of 2-3 years with gel and episodes of kernel errors and downtime. I thought previously, it had something to do with an external application - google chrome and got rid of this to use Opera instead. He made much less frequent mistakes but nevertheless still occurred.

  For this reason, it does not seem logical to use clone apps (although much would have made life easier) and I need to somehow this the long way round... or so I think, but please correct me if wrong.

  I have a Time Machine backup before I upgraded my OS, and before you try anything, I'll do another then its judgment the new OS.

  My questions are:

  1. after formatting my SSD, I should make a partition?

  2. is it acceptable for then simply drag a copy of the OS El Cap to the SSD and run hopefully leading to installation?

  3. What is the best way to migrate my data?

  Note that I'm not a tech savvy person, have never done anything like this before and its taken me weeks to reach these conclusions to date.

  With step by step instructions all tips are welcome.

  Thank you.

  Create partitions first, then format each partition.

  I think you need to create a USB flash drive install and then boot from the flash drive and go launched the installation process.

• VMWare backup software for funky VM with OS customers

  Hey there,

  I'm still new to this free version of VM Server and I wonder if someone as gone through this before:

  My business takes 3 new servers/Applications which they will copy of virtual computer Images and we will import it onto a new server VM 2.0 host. These applications are: Linux, Open source, and another funky OS that I've never dealt with before. Such, ideas of backups are once a week, stop the virtual machines and save them as flat files or buy backup of virtual machine software (very little probable that I said). I prefer the option of backup of virtual machine and run every day, but with costs are the big problem at the moment, can anyone recommend another option for backup everyday live, these virtual machines?

  Thank you

  You could build a script than for vm snapshots, copy the base vmdk and then commits the snapshot.  Once copied to a shared location you can dump on tape no matter.  If you create the script and run as long as a cron job, you could reach a full vmdk backup every day.

• Cold Clone 4.03 converter - is no longer a connectivity - used to work

  I have a Dell Server physical - 1950.  I used 4.03 Converter Enterprise (after adding the Perc driver) cold Clone is several times, even just two weeks ago.  It works without any problem.  Sometimes I clone this box for backup reasons because I'm not yet ready to move to VMware still.

  In any case. Today using the same exact CD start at 4.03 Converter Enterprise I no longer get my DHCP address. The Converter CD says "no network connection available.  It seems that although I do not know how to test it on that physical server using the clone boot CD there is no connectivity.  I also tried to manually set the IP address, but it will not yet communicate.  At least I can not ping the address of another computer.  The converter program displays my Broadcom adapter to network with the exact model number.

  If I boot Windows Server (which uses the same IP address), the server works fine.  If no outside don't switch issues etc.

  NOTHING physical changed in my environment.  The only thing I did was use the Dell Open manage DVD to update server firmware. I was a little bit outdated good, but complete Dell update program fine.  I checked it and the firmware is up-to-date.  Also when I'm trying to clone, I use the boot CD get cold, then any software side server should not be a problem (well, I guess?).

  Thanks for the help.

  Strange question.

  But maybe the driver on the boot CD is too old (related to the barrette microcode).

  Have you tried to use an updated driver?

  I think the problem is that the converter (WinPE) cannot resolve the ESX host name:

  So, how do I cold can clone a physical Machine without DNS?

  Any ideas?

  Big names HB

  Hello

  You can try some of the following ways:

  (1) add the entrance to host your DNS server or a DNS temp and then go for setting manual ip set dns temp

  (2) use the IP address to be converted as suggested above

  (3) perform a hot migration where the host can be added to the host file where the converter is running.

• Download the VMware converter integrated software (plug-in to vCenter)?

  Can someone help me with this? We have not bought the upgrade license vSphere 4.

  Where can I download Vmware converter software integrated (plug-in to vCenter)? Is it comes with Vsphere 4 bundle? I couldn't find this as a bundle of Vsphere 4.0 evaluation.

  Thank you

  the installation of plugin files will be located on the vCenter Server .iso file.  Inside the .iso file, there will be a file converter.    However, if you are not running vCenter 4 you maybe better off using the stand-alone version.

• VMWare converter hangs on RHEL/CentOS 2 and 3 guests

  I tried this on three different hosts and in each case the vmware converter starts ok, then eventually it simply crashes.  I logged on the source host to see what was going on and noticed that it crashes there is no vmware running process, whereas before I was able to see the vmware converter process, but also the tar of the process which has begun.

  Any suggestions?  This product don't feel really as it is completely "cooked", at least on the side of things Linux.

  I really don't understand why rsync would be a faster, unless you were synchronizing after an initial copy.

  I don't know why you have to do all this hack later.  I fear systems that you are having to do this on the 2.4 kernels, which are basically not supported (read as "will not work"), except for explicitly RHEL 2.1, which we specially deal.

  CentOS is generally not supported (read as "not tested, no guarantee it won't work at all, no promises of any assistance, good luck").

  That is all listed in the release notes: http://www.vmware.com/support/converter/doc/releasenotes_conv401.html#guestos

  But many people have had success with CentOS, and they have not needed to play with the initrd, grub, etc..  This is a very large part of the value provided by the Linux P2V functionality, so have to do it yourself sucks.  Can you give me the versions accurate that you are having to do with?

  Honestly, if you do all that cold converter Clone CD (available as part of the converter company releases) might be a better approach because it allows to copy disks completely, you will lose any LVM and won't have problems with 'magic' confusion of tar files. But for the record, the cold Clone CD does not support provisioning.

  Hey all, I'm looking to do a full-on clone / backup of my boot drive, basiclly I have a hard drive in my work pc I brought in (wd green 500 GB) and I would like to exchange it for a smaller (because I'm leaving soon) that I use only 100 GB of it, and I could use it on my home pc , although I won't be re - install windows and all programs, drivers and stuff.

  Hello

  You can create a system image that contains a copy of Windows and your programs, files and system settings. The system image is then stored in a separate location from the original programs, settings, and files. You can use this image to restore the contents of your computer if your hard disk or an entire computer ever stops working.

  Please see the link below.

  What is a system image?

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows7/what-is-a-system-image

  Note: when you restore your computer from a system image, it is a complete restoration. You cannot choose to restore individual, and all your programs, system settings, and files are replaced by those on the image of the system.

  Let us know if you still have additional problems.

• New (?) Patch Windows 7 can break up from VMware

  I have no idea if this would affect any of us, but for those of us who run Windows 7 and using the Simulator, there is apparently a fix for Windows which can break up from VMware.

  I never put my automatic update machines, so I'm covered for now, but if you have updates automatically applied, take this into account and if you notice new problems, you can try to do a restore to cancel the patches.  Or wait to see if any other information comes to this subject.

  It is not only related to VMware View software? I read the article and it doesn't seem to affect VMware player, doest it?

  In all cases, the VMware article on which already points to an update.

  See you soon

• Native integration with VMware View

  I'm evaluating the access (without client) browser based virtual destops with Ericom AccessNow for VMware View software.

  Please find diagram of connection planned for use in the attached file.

  Does anyone has tried to do already?

  What is the best practice to integrate native and VMware View?

  Where can I find the rules of firewall used in the integration of product?

  Are there security issues with access by browser-based virtual desktops?

  Thank you much in advance.

  In general, we do not see a lot of native discussion here, so maybe this isn't the best place for this post.   You can try this http://communities.vmware.com/people/AdamG53 guy has sent a private message because he used to work for the natives.   I have not seen him active lately, so I don't know if it meets or not.
