  If you want to have a consistent state, Yes.

  If you just need a consistent state to the accident, you can create a snapshot, download the base vmdk files and then validate once again the snapshot operation.

  You cannot download files in use (except the read-only).

• AutoSave is slow when the virtual machine is not active

  When I actively use a Windows 2000 Server VM and AutoSave is triggered, it's very fast.  But if I did not use the virtual machine for a while, it takes some minutes and minutes.  If I'm trying to go back to the virtual machine, I have to wait indefinitely for the automatic backup complete.

  Is it possible to set the priority for the automatic backup feature?

  Are you talking about VMware Fusion AutoProtect feature, or something else (perhaps in the comments)? Offhand, it seems that when you have not used within a certain time, Fusion got paged out. Taking the automatic snapshot requires paging backward, which can take some time. You can test this theory by looking at activity monitor and looking at the pageout/publication numbers when you see an automatic preview slow.

  Pageouts and pageins are controlled by OS X and not something we have control over. Adding RAM to the Mac, it is more likely merger will stay in memory and avoid this situation.

• Correctly remove resources when the virtual machine is deleted

  Hello

  I've created a service plan to power off the virtual machine and delete the vcenter.  The workflow works very well, but apparently not released the vRA resources.

  Then he said: the virtual machine has actually deleted vsphere, but since the vRA, Managed administration portal machines, I found the virtual machine that I removed from the service by using the mentioned service blue print now appears as "missing."

  
  My question is how to downgrade the machine virtual and also removed its resources reserved correctly?

  Thank you

  Hi, Jimmy - I met the same problem recently and did the following:

  1. download the VC:VirtualMachine object.  This can be done in several ways, but in my particular case, I use the com.vmware.library.vc.vm.getAllVMsMatchingRegexp module.

  2. get the VCAC:VirtualMachine of the object to VC:VirtualMachine object.  Still, there are different ways to do this.  I created a getVCACVm action, which takes a #1 VC:VirtualMachine object:

  var vCACVm = null;

  var uuid = vcVM.config.instanceUuid;

  var vCACVms = Server.findAllForType ("vCAC:VirtualMachine", "VMUniqueID eq '" + uuid + "'");

  If (vCACVms.length == 1)

  vCACVm = vCACVms [0];

  Return vCACVm;

  3. delete the VCAC:VirtualMachine entity.  You can use the com.vmware.library.vcac.deleteEntity module to handle this.

  KEEP IN MIND... This removes only the vCAC/vRA entity.  You should always turn off the virtual machine (if any, see: library/vCenter/Virtual Machine management/Power Management / power off the virtual machine and wait) and delete vcenter (see: vCenter/library/Virtual Machine management/Basic/remove virtual machine).  I do this before performing the three steps above.  He there maybe better, easier, faster, etc., ways to do it.  I hope this helps.

• How to change the network when the virtual machine is connected, in Vmware ESXi with Perl in Linux?

  Hello

  If someone can answer that the way to change the network of a VM with Perl? I would periodically change the network where the virtual machine network adapter is connected.

  Thank you

  Take a look at the vGhetto repository of scripts, where you can find a lot of useful scripts, including updateVMPortgroup.pl , which may contain what you are looking for.

• Migration of storage when the virtual machine has several data stores

  How can I (or can I) use Storage vMotion on ESX4.0 U1 to migrate part of a virtual computer to a new data store?  I have a virtual machine with 5 data stores attached and move 1 data warehouses to a LUN of larger size.  What is the best method?

  On the "Select the data store" window, click on the button "Advanced". You can specify the location of each VMDK and configuration files.

• VMware workstation, crashes when I try to create a new virtual machine

  Hello

  I never had this problem before, but I didn't create a new virtual machine in a very long time. Last time I created one was making Workstation 9 I think. Some time after the upgrade to Workstation 10 or 8.1 of Windows Update 1 it has started.

  In 10 Workstation running on Windows 8.1, I select the file > new Virtual Machine dialog coming upwards and in a few seconds crashes of VMware workstation and closes.

  So I checked the Windows event logs and find

  Warning "VMware Workstation to function properly, must be reinstalled after the upgrade to Windows."

  So, I upgraded from 10.0.2 to 10.0.3 and it uninstalled and reinstalled but I still get this warning.

  Well, I found the problem.

  I looked in the UNK file and found a few ISO files wrongs tracks.

  I had mounted some ISO in the past and they have made the entry in this file of preferences such as "isoLocationMRUx".

  I'd change the leter this ISO file player so they could not be found as input, once I corrected the paths I can now create a new virtual machine.

  He is responsible for ion BONE the new virtual machine now.

• Remove the NIC of the virtual machine running?

  Im trying to remove one NIC from a script and the machine has to be on. I am trying:

  Get-NetworkAdapter $vmname | where {$_.NetworkName - eq "Network 10"} | Remove-NIC

  Remove-NetworkAdapter: 2011-09-28 15:59:24 the VM Remove-network card must be in the following State: PoweredOff.
  At line: 1 char: 101

  + FullyQualifiedErrorId: Common_SharedParameterHelper_VerifyVmIsInState_VmNotInState, VMware.VimAutomation.ViCore.Cmdlets.Commands.RemoveNetworkAdapter

  Would I really thing that there is a way to remove the NETWORK card when the virtual machine is turned on?

  There with the ReconfigVM_Task method.

  $vm = Get-VM MyVM $nic = $vm.ExtensionData.Config.Hardware.Device | where {$_.DeviceInfo.Label -eq "Network adapter 2"}
  
  $spec = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec $dev = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualDeviceConfigSpec $dev.operation = "remove" $dev.Device = $nic
  $spec.DeviceChange += $dev
  
   $vm.ExtensionData.ReconfigVM($spec)
  

  Don't know what the risk is, however.

• Is reset or restart the virtual machine should all expanding vmdk size?

  Hi all

  While extending the size of 20 to 28 GB GB vmdk I can extend when the VM is in poweron State, but he didn't think inside the virtual machine. The disc is resized when the virtual machine won reset or reboot.  I would like to know if the reset or restart that virtual computer is must have for resizing vmdk. If it is then what is the use of expansion of disk while the VM is in poweron State?

  Thank you

  Vijaya

  Yes with windows 2008, you can extend the OS disk to create a new drive letter instead.

• 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!

• Error! The CPU was displayed by the operating system of Fords. Power off or reset the virtual machine

  Why when I try install Mac Os Yosemite in VMwareplayer when the virtual machine starts, I get this error:

  The CPU was displayed by the operating system of Fords. Power off or reset the virtual machine

  I have an AMD A10 processor

  VMware does not support the operation of Mac OS X in VMware Player/workstation!  Also, legally virtualisables versions of OS X running in a Virtual Machine can be done when done in the Apple brand hardware but when done while running under OS X, and for that, you need VMware Fusion not VMware Player/Workstation (or use ESX/ESXi on Apple brand hardware) you violate Apple's SLA for this product.  So any help can you provided for OS X in this use of the scenarios that it would violate the community VMware operating conditions to do.

• Activate the Virtual Machine start and stop

  Hello

  I'm not activate Virtual Machine Startup and shutdown I don't know what is right.

  

  Hello

  This is the VMware KB which provide a workaround to enable this option for VMs on ESXi hosts in cluster HA active.

  VMware KB: Automatic Virtual Machine Startup / Shutdown in ESXi hosts in a cluster VSA is turned off

  Last time (couple of years back), when I was researching on this topic, I found that these settings are applied only when the virtual machine is on the same host ESXi, and once his migrated to another ESXi host for this VM autostart option is lost and needs to be reconfigured again. I don't know if this behavior changed with new versions of vSphere.

  I hope this helps.

  Virtualization VMware on NetApp

• Shortcut to the Application on the virtual machine

  Hello

  I wonder if it is possible to have shortcuts on my dock that points to an application installed on a Windows 7 VM?

  When the user clicks the shortcut, VMWare Fusion is open, the Windows 7 VM boot and application loading?

  If so, what would be the shortcut text?

  Thanks in advance.

  When you run an application when the Virtual Machine is for unity a Dock tile for the app shows on the dock and you can ctrl-click it and select Options > keep in the Dock and use it to open this app if the Virtual Machine is running or not.  Of course after that, if the Virtual Machine does not work it will be started and then the application open.

• If the virtual machine is restarted during SVmotion...?

  Hello

  During the SVmotion if I try the scenarios below would be the SVmotion fail or still work?

  Say if I trigger a SVmotion when the virtual machine is powered off and then during the migration, if I try to turn on the virtual machine what?

  If I trigger a SVmotion on a virtual machine under tension and during the migration, if I restart the virtual machine what will happen?

  Deepak

  Storage VMotion is process for powered on VM - it's migration transparent disk online. So if you want to restart the computer during Storage VMotion virtual it will be restarted. SVMotion care VM do inside.

  But when you migrate powered off the computer virtual you just will not be able to turn on.

• IP not set to start the virtual machine

  Environment: ESX 4 server, hosting VMware Studio 2.0 (final version), will deploy device created in the same ESX host.

  -

  ---

  I was not yet able to determine if my wait will not, but I expected that my VM would be marketing it would have an assigned IP address already if I finish the network settings section in the build settings. But when I start my VM, it starts with IP = 0.0.0.0.

  I'm going to network Type = static and by filling in all the details for the IP, mask subnet, gateway, DNS 1 and 2. It seems that they are used when the virtual machine is in 'construction' on the host, but I'm not entirely sure about this.

  In the OVF IP assignment settings, I tried selecting OVF environment, but have not set of OVF properties (I don't think that this should be mandatory if I am already addressing in the build settings).

  After construction, into my vSphere Client (ESX4), I chose the file & gt; Deploy the template OVF... & gt; Deploy from URL and paste the URL of the virtual machine built recently. I start the virtual machine and watch the console screen boot and load the operating system. IP address is never assigned and the console device is displayed with IP = 0.0.0.0.

  I then have to connect with the image, manually assign the IP settings and then everything works. I expect this happen at boot time so that my firstbootscript can take advantage of the assigned IP address.

  -

  Maybe I go about it the wrong way, but my usecase is as follows:

  Build a VM & gt; Distribute the VM on end user & gt;  end user deploys on ESX and chooses address IP & gt; end user boots VM for the first time & gt; firstbootscript runs automatically

  Am I missing something? Can I have different expectations about how IP assignment is supposed to work? I read about IP Pools, but this isn't an option in my vSphere Client.

  Property of the FVO is the best option to set an IP address.

  Long back for Linux OS, I have written a shell script to set the IP address and the hostname in firstboot Virginia you can try this for your going here is the link for the same thing.

  http://communities.VMware.com/docs/doc-10953

  In the OS from VMware Studio tab you can paste this script in the script firstboot.

  First of all, please run this script manually and then use it in VMware Studio firstboot.
