• Cannot create an instance of the java virtual machine

  Hi when I try to launch my sql developer get this error

  Cannot create an instance of the java virtual machine located in the path C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_38\jre\bin\client\jvm.dll, but I do not have the file in the location

  I'm trying to do

  BI CHAOS: SQL Developer: cannot create an instance of the Virtual Machine Java

  Cannot create an instance of the Virtual Machine Java

  but am not able to locate file product.conf in my machine
  

  OK, we lost time because you said never explicitly release of SQL Developer in use, and then, when I deduced this wrong, you went right with it, rather than correct me.  Remember the line from Blade Runner when Harrison Ford hits Rutger Hauer in the head with a pipe?  Than hurt!

  Anyway, since the last post (because of the osgi references in the file ide.conf) I see that you are using a version 4.0.x of SQL Developer.  You must update the file product.conf with the smallest Xmx value in order to create an instance of the JVM.  If you have not yet found the product.conf file on your system, this might help: http://www.thatjeffsmith.com/archive/2013/12/oracle-sql-developer-4-windows-and-the-jdk/

  Otherwise, ask someone in your organization COMPUTER help - keep in mind that AppData is one of those hidden Windows directories, so you'll have to tell explore to make it visible by the organize > Folder Options > view > hidden files and folders parameters.  In addition, you should use Java 7, not Java 6 - try to get that upgrade to the latest version of jdk1.7.0_xx (currently 60, I think).  Since you never said if your JDK is 32-bit or 64-bit, I can not say to use an AddVMOption, Add32VMOption or Add64VMOption.

• Clone a Linux virtual machine

  Hi team,

  I created a clone for Linux vm, before you turn on the virtual machine what are the steps be taken to avoid conflicts. ?

  these steps won't work

  Click with the right button on vm - change sett - nic - remove.

  power on

  change ip and hostname through command - vi sysconfig /.

  Finally add nic to the virtual machine

  correct me I'm wrong.

  Thank you

  regarding remove vNIC, you don't have to do it.

  Just modify the virtual machine settings and deselect the checkbox 'Connect to food' (Hope you use automatic MAC generation, not manual)

  turn it on, change the host name, network settings etc... should be enough.

  If you cloned VM using vCenter server, then consider using the specification for customizing Manager automate for you.

• create a dynamic group for all virtual machines

  I would like to create separate dynamic groups for all my Windows virtual machines and physical machines of my Windows.  Is it possible to do it via regular expressions?  It is not granular enough to create something like this.  We have vROps that collects a large number of settings of virtual machines as its CPU usage, use of memory and use of the network to name a few.  If I install Hyperic on those virtual machines it will collect the same measures and I'll have to duplicate the data in vROps.  So I would like to have a separate profiles for Win32, CPU, physical disk on file server, etc., for virtual machines and physical machines.  I was going to try using dynamic groups, but I don't think that Hyperic will be able to handle this.  If you have any suggestions or knowledge on this operation through dynamic groups that would be great.

  Thank you.

  In UI Hyperic access the platform in platform type choose Win32 and press the green icon. You will see all the windows.

  Now select all platforms and press the 'Group' button > add to the new group

  Good luck

• I can clone (clone full) a virtual machine that has snapshots of Vcenter.

  Hi gurus,

  Can I clone (clone full) an of Vcenter virtual machine that has snapshots.

  Kind regards

  Kamlesh.

  Hello

  Yes, you can clone the virtual computer.

  But your new virtual machine (the clone) will have none of the snapshots of the source of the VM.

  This will be just a version of the source running.

• Clone a virtual machine / move to folder / delete VM / as a Powershell Script as a scheduled task ends with "ongoing"

  Hi all,.

  I would kindly ask your help with a script that needs to run as a scheduled task. It is functional, but does not correct and little need for love at the end...

  I want to create a script that

  • find a virtual machine with a pattern on its behalf (realized and works)
  • delete a virtual machine with a reason given in his name (completed works)
  • create a clone of a virtual machine (completed works)
  • move that created clone (upstairs) and move it to a folder named (open)
    or the fact in the clone process
    
    

  I realized thus far:

  Add-pssnapin VMware.VimAutomation.Core
  # Import CSV backup
  $backupinfo = import-Csv C:\scripts\vm_backup\test.csv
  VCenter servername #Set
  $vcenter_server = "name servers".
  #Connect to vCenter
  SE connect-VIServer $vcenter_Server

  # BEGIN OLD BACKUP CLEANUP
  #Select all old backups
  $old_backups = get - VM *-backups
  {if ($old_backups)}
  {foreach ($backup_vm to $old_backups)
  Get - VM $backup_vm | Remove-VM - DeleteFromDisk-confirm: $false
  }
  }

  # START QUEUING NEW CLONES
  #Increment through CSV
  {foreach ($customer to $backupinfo)
  $target_host is get-VMHost-name $customer. TargetHost
  If {($target_host)
  Date format #Set for clone names
  $date = get-Date-Format 'YYYY-MM-dd ".
  Date format #Set for emails
  $time = (get-Date - f "Hh: mm")
  #Get SourceVM
  $vm is get - VM $customer. SourceVM
  # Create new snapshot clone
  $cloneSnap = $vm | New-Snapshot - name "instant Clone.
  # Get the managed object display
  $vmView = $vm | Get-View
  # Get the managed folder object reference
  $cloneFolder = $vmView.parent
  # Construction specification clone
  $cloneSpec = new-object Vmware.Vim.VirtualMachineCloneSpec
  # Make linked disc specification?
  $cloneSpec.Snapshot = $vmView.Snapshot.CurrentSnapshot
  #Set VirtualMachineRelocateSpec
  $cloneSpec.Location = new-object Vmware.Vim.VirtualMachineRelocateSpec
  #Thin commissioning
  $cloneSpec.Location.Transform = [Vmware.Vim.VirtualMachineRelocateTransformation]: sparse
  #Target data store
  $cloneSpec.Location.Datastore = (get-Datastore-name $customer. TargetDS | Get - View). MoRef
  #Target host
  $cloneSpec.Location.Host = (get-VMHost-name $customer. TargetHost | Get - View). MoRef
  #Target list of resources, from the first VM in the TargetHost
  $cloneSpec.Location.Pool = (get-VMHost-name $customer. TargetHost | Get - VM | Select-Object - 1 first | Get - View). ResourcePool
  Name of clone #Set
  $cloneName = ' date of $vm-$- $temps - backup ".
  # Create clone
  $clone_task = $vmView.CloneVM_Task ($cloneFolder, $cloneName, $cloneSpec)
  # Remove snapshot created for clone, will automatically queues
  Get-Snapshot - VM (VM-Get-name $customer. SourceVM) - name $cloneSnap | Remove-Snapshot - confirm: $False
  }
  }

  # Move folder in VM Clone
  Move-VM - VM * - backups - Destination Clone

  VCentre #Disconnect
  Disconnect-VIServer-confirm: $false

  The script itself runs so far and does what it should, but the scheduled task is always "in process of execution". Now, I created a work around in this way, I have finished the task after two hours of running; but there must be a better solution that works properly.
  As well as the part with the rise of the virtual machine.

  Could you maybe help me or have a good idea how to solve this problem?

  Thanks in advance

  Try again with

  PowerShell-no interactive - noprofile - executionpolicy override - file C:\scripts\scriptname.ps1

• Create custom workflows in virtual machine

  Hello

  I use a native workflow 'Create custom virtual machine', but it does not deploy a machine of the ntemplate.

  He built a raw with personalised VM. Some other workflow to deploy the VM from the model but without customization.

  Is it possible to include an option to model the workflow "Create custom virtual machine"?

  Thanks in advance

  Use several workflow and actions as building blocks to build one that meets your needs... For example, suppose you want to deploy a Windows VM with customization...

  Create a new workflow called "deploy Windows VMS"

  Inside of this workflow, add the following workflow:

  Clone, windows with a single NETWORK card and credential<-- this="" will="" clone="" a="" vm="" windows="" vm="" from="" template,="" perform="" sysprep="" (change="" unique="" id,="" guest="" os="" name,="" set="" administrator="" password,="" join="" domain="" if="" specified,="" and="" set="" ip="" address="" as="">

  Take the exit (a new virtual machine) this workflow and send it to each flow of work following:

  • Change of RAM (Workflow)
  • Add the disk (Workflows)
  • changeVMvCPU (Action)

  should look a bit like this:

  

  Once you have linked all together correctly and all attachments, you'll probably want to adjust the presentation so that the CPU/Mem are in the correct section, as well as additional info on the disk... Here's a quick example:

  

  This process could be replicated, but using a Linux workflow specific to meet the same needs deployment clone custom Linux virtual machines.

• How can I create a simple virtual machine with the CD in a newWorkflow

  I created a new workflow with simple virtual machine and added a cdrom workflow but an error is shown.

  How can I reuse of so that the new created VM add a new cdrom in a workflow

  

  Help me please

  First of all, you only need a single attribute of type VC:VirtualMachine, not two as in the screenshot. You don't need to specify its value; When the first workflow completes, its output should be attributed to this attribute, and then the assigned value must be passed as input to the second workflow.

  To check/edit links, open the first workflow to change, go to the 'Visual links' tab and make sure the workflow output is line connected to the attribute. Do the same for the second workflow, and then make sure that the attribute is connected to the line to the corresponding input parameter.

  Take a look at the workflow attached if you don't know how the maps should look like.

• Cannot start the virtual machine after you create snapshop

  I found a strange behaviour. I have a Windows 2008 guest that I just copied in my new box ESXi. I am trying to create a snapshot before upgrading the guest to 2012 Windows operating system. The virtual machine has currently no snapshots. Whenever I have create a snapshot, he succeeds, but then I can't start the virtual machine saying that it does not find the vmdk file delta even though I see there in the data store. In order to start the virtual machine, I have to delete the inventory and it readd, but then I lose the snapshot. I also have another computer virtual running Windows 8.1 that does exactly the same thing. How can I create snapshots safely without damaging the virtual machine? I also tried to create the snapshot while the virtual machine has been activated but that makes crashing and then it does not start again, so I have to repeat the process to remove the inventory and it time. Frustrating. See the screenshots, I have attached.

  Once these virtual machines have been in Hyper-V in the past and I just convert to VMware format using the StarWind V2V converter.

  Yes, for an ESXi host and target you must either select the ESX f.vmdk as format target (growable option is for VMware Workstation), or you must convert the virtual machine once more instead of simply upload the files to an ESXi host.

• Create a virtual machine using an existing backup [EXSi 5.0.0]

  Hello

  I've looked everywhere to find a thread that explains me to reach higher. Our ESXi is currently a backup copy using ghettoVCB and store it on an external NAS. I know that I can simply restore a backup virtual computer by using the same script, because it supports.

  But what I want to achieve is to create a separate entrance to the virtual machine by using an existing backup. I'm pretty there is a way, but I now know how to because I'm fairly new to ESXi and learn things slowly.

  All advise you will be highly appreciated and thank you in advance.

  Hello

  I finally managed to do that. I should tried before posting this discussion, but somehow he's ready now. Back to ESXi users who are finding similar questions or have a confusion on how to achieve this, you can see below the process and this;

  1. Before you copy, make sure that you have appropriate files related to the virtual machine (there should be a .vmx, hard & sometimes flat hard-000)
  2. Copy the folder to the location of data store where is your VM (generally, it will be under/vmfs/volumes/yourdatastore) using ssh and WinSCP (a tool to connect in ftp/sftp/scp).
  3. Once copied into the data store, go to the data store by visiting configuration > store > select the data store & access your virtual machine directory, then simply add the .vmx file to the inventory by clicking on the right (Note: do this when you are connected to the ESXi using vCenter IP which is the recommended way to do).

  I hope this helps!

• Orchestrator 5.1 REPORT-all the virtual machines in the data center and create a CSV file

  Hello

  What I basically want to do is create a report CSV of all virtual machines in the data center with various information (VMname, domain name FULL, IPaddress, status, data warehouses, tools etc...).  The export list in the client feature is insufficient (especially for any KPI report).

  Problem: (workflow is still under construction so real email send does not not and need to clean the code)

  I am stuck at the part of the creation of a table that can be parsed correctly in the CSV file.  2 ways I've tried will produce a report of single object or combine all of the table into a single string (where I am now).  I think the main problem I have is that I have to create a 2D within my service to push toward the final table that is written to the CSV format.  Basically, I do not understand how to push my variables in a loop of a table.

  Any help or assistance?

  Thank you

  BOOM!

  Added some comments, removed the hardcoded in the csv temp file, deleted path the hardcoded port 25 for SMTP - mail settings should come from the configuration of the MAIL plug-in. And fixed / confirmed that the workflow now includes the attachment for e-mail and ends with success!

• Create a simple internal network between two or more virtual machines

  Hello guys,.
  I just wanted to ask how to create an internal network between several virtual machines without the host must be a part of.

  I don't want that your network has a NAT, but I want to HOST a part of another network.

  
  I tried the changes on network cards, but does not work...
  Obviously with VMware Workstation 8

  Yes, your "Virtual Machine settings" - screenshot #1 - Select VMnet2 (for example).  Do this for each customer that you want on this private network, "Guest-only.  Note that you need to configure the network settings on each client within each guest OS; or have a guest to be a server with a dhcp server running that other clients can obtain an IP address configuration of.

• How do the automatic deletion script clone virtual machines

  Hello

  We use the VM data recovery to clone virtual machines. We would like to clone some VMs on weekly basis but we need a script (or automatically) to remove the existing cloned VM automatically. VDR not clones a virtual computer when there is already a clone of this virtual machine.

  The easiest way is to use the Windows Task Scheduler.
