• Error: "VMware Workstation has suspended this virtual machine because the disk on which the virtual machine is stored is almost full."

  I get this error message:

  VMware Workstation has suspended this virtual machine because the disk on which the virtual machine is stored is almost full. To continue, free 1.3 GB of additional disk space.

  I read up on the subject and found that I have to re size a partition. Anyone know what it could be? I can't find anything that looks like it has something to do with VMware. Does anyone know what size and what file system is it?

  My OS:
  Tumbleweed OpenSUSE x 64

  Thanks in advance

  On more creative, my home and root file systems were not extended to my full disk space :^)

• How do I create standard vSwitches in a HA cluster where the virtual machine switches to the same network?

  I have a lab put in place with 2 hosts 5.5 ESXi and vCenter.  I want to create a situation where each virtual machine must have a dedicated network card.  If I create vSwitchABC on host 1, what should I do on host 2?  Create vSwitchABC on that host too and connect it to the same physical switch?  Which will allow the host 1 failure and the virtual machine to arrive on host 2 on the network because the same vSwitch names?

  Thank you!

  Welcome to the community-Yes, you need to create a vswitch on host 2 has a virtual machine port group with the same name on host 1 connection on the same subnet as connected to the host - 1

• Is there a setting for auto-start on the virtual machines on the blackout?

  I was wondering if there is an auto on when the server has no juice because of a power failure. I do not mean the actual physical vm server, but the VM themselves on the physical server. Power outages happen always when I get to a computer for vpn in the VCenter.

  Thank you

  Gary

  Yes, it is possible

  -In the vSphere client, select the ESX/ESXi host,

  -Go to the configuration tab.

  -Select in the software section, the option to start/stop the virtual machine.

  -Click on properties on the right of the screen.

  -Activate the option "allow virtual machines to start and stop automatically with the system."

  -Select the virtual machine and move the virtual computer in the correct startup group.

  I have attached a few screenshots.

  Best wishes / Saludos

• SRM 5.5 - vSphere replication - error: impossible to reverse the replication for the Virtual Machine. A snapshot operation cannot be performed

  Hi all, we have just run a test DR failover of a couple of virtual machines in our protected our failover site and all site swung perfectly, two virtual machines came online and all applications work well. However when we cam to r-eprotect machines virtual, we get some errors.

  One of the virtual machines seems to have lived the reprotect end process, it is still running, but has not moved to 89% for some time. The virtual machine has a couple of grand (a little less than 2 TB) VMDK. slow progress is just a consequence of the large VMDK?

  More worrisome is the virtual machine which don't reprotect at all. It generates an error whenever I click on the "Restore" button (error: impossible to reverse the replication for the Virtual Machine.) A snapshot operation can not be performed).

  
  Does anyone have any ideas as to the cause?

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  Finally got to the bottom of this. The issue was that reprotect SRM work was trying to dispel any snapshots that were taken on the computer object virtual destination in VMWare, but could not clean snapshots.

  The reason why snapshots would not consolidate was because it was snapshots of temporary VEEAM who in fact any snapshot file listed in the VSAN data store. So when we looked through the browser data store, no snapshot file existed in the virtual computers folder. Trying a manual removal also failed.

  To fix this, we created a snapshot of the virtual machine in the original data center (note is the engine to the bottom of the virtual machine), this effect was to get rid of the 'fade' snapshot that was visible in the Snapshot Manager that VEEAM backup had left behind. Once this had disappeared, the reprotect back to DCA worked perfectly.

• Create an alert only rule on the virtual machines in a Service

  I'm under vFoglight 6.7.1. I set of services including virtual machines. I want to change the rules, such as disk space, to pull it from the virtual machines in this alert service. This would allow me to define groups for different email alerts. Someone has an idea how to do this?

• A suspended snapshot could not be created for the virtual machine (DC) ha-data center (DC) \vm\VMware vCenter Server Appliance.

  Hello gentlemen,

  I can not only save this virtual machine with Backup Exec 2014 for a long time.

  They are there was no snapshot in snapshot Manager.

  Could you help me?

  A suspended snapshot could not be created for the virtual machine (DC) ha-data center (DC) \vm\VMware vCenter Server Appliance.

  Hello

  I found the solution.

  I disabled the JOB BE general relativity.

  and the host where the virtual machine belong was not the right time. No Ntp server has been configured.

  I did and now there works.

  I think that the problem can come from this.

• alert filtering for the Virtual Machine in emailFilter.xml

  I'm trying to filter for alerts from the Virtual Machine to the user interface in the emailFilter.xml.

  Ideally I would like to filter by other measures such as the ready % CPU or the CPU usage or some other metrics, but in the meantime just try to isolate the Virtual Machine.

  < condition >

  < condition type = "ResourceKind" > VMware adapter: Virtual Machine < / condition >

  < / conditions >

  I tried a few different combinations of the above, but no luck.  Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?

  Thank you!

  not quite sure I understand what you try to do

  Edit:

  But I have the kind of resource would be 'VirtualMachine' (without a space), and there is no tag 'typical'.

  Look at him ' consolidated-alert - definitions.xml' for example, formatting must be exactly as specified.

  I read it twice
  Look here - https://www.vmware.com/pdf/vcops-57-custom-ui-admin-guide.pdf page 82.

  resource type must be VMWARE:VirtualMachine

  
  

  I'm not sure that you will be able to filter by attribute however (such as the CPU usage)

• Deployment of a virtual machine from a store of data with less space, but enough for the virtual machine

  I received this delicate task, and I can understand not just how to replace all parts.

  I need to create a script that will be smartly decided what data store to deploy a virtual computer.  We do not want to deploy in a data store that has the most space, we want to deploy to the data store that has the least space but can still account for the space for the (vm + 5%) and still leave 50 GB free on the lun after the move.

  Thus, for example, if the virtual machine is 40 GB, we want the script to select the data store that has a close to 90 GB available without being under.

  So my thought for this approach is:

  • Create the query to get all the relevant LUNS.  This excludes all the LUNS with the 'local' name in it and excludes all LUN owners (who have a slightly different naming convention then our general shared storage LUNS)
    • This piece, which I partially understood
      • Get-datastore. WHERE-object {($_.)} Name: corresponds to "PAR0 [1-4] _ [edp] * disk *")- and ($_.) "." Name - notmatch 'local')}
    • Now, I need to get all of their total size and free space.  Perhaps export this list to a CSV, however if I have to.
    • Create a variable that contains: the size of the total virtual machine to the virtual machine that is deployed before its deployment.
    • Deduct vm size against each data store size and pull in some way that that also close to 50 GB free on the data store and still facilitates the deployment of the vm.
      

  I have a few other scripts, I scrounged on the internet that I tried to restore... but I just don't calm not having all the pieces...

  • Get-Datastore. Where-Object {$_.} ParentFolder-match 'Internal'} ' | Select-Object - property data center, FreeSpaceMB, CapacityMB name, ' | Tri-objet-property FreeSpaceMB
  • Select-Object Name,@{n="CapacityGB";e={[math]::round (($_.)) {{(CapacityMB/1024))}}, @{n = "FreeSpaceGB"; e = {[math]: round (($_.))}} {{(FreeSpaceMB/1024))}}, @{n = "FreeSpacePercent"; e = {[math]: round (($_.))}} FreeSpaceMB / $_. {{(CapacityMB*100))}} | Sort-Object FreeSpaceGB

  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  -Knotz

  Try something like this

  # Get all data warehouses

  $ds = get-Datastore. Where-Object {($_.)} Name: corresponds to "PAR0 [1-4] _ [edp] * disk *")- and ($_.) "." Name - notmatch 'local')} |

• Customization of the comments for the virtual machines deployed from model has stopped working

  Hi all

  (Environment: vCenter and ESXi 10 5.1 hosts running Build #3070626)

  We have a model 2012R2 and a file specification of customization that allows us to deploy the VMs 2012R2 server. It worked well for a while. After the Christmas break, it seems more work correctly and we havn't knowingly changed anything to cause this. We have fixed our ESXi hosts Build #3070626 October 6, but have deployed VMs of model since, without problem.

  We have all staged for the VM in advance (IE AD entry of objects and DNS). And then powered the deployed virtual computer, sysprep runs, but does not seem to apply settings in the customization file (IE rename the virtual computer, set the Admin password, join the domain etc.). If feed us the cycle of the VM, sysprep is running again, but even once, does nothing.

  I have attached the contents of my file guestcust.log of a computer deployed virtual (see below), but I do not see the clues about the problem. I thought initially the error on the first line was important, until I've found it is also present on the virtual machines that have been successfully deployed from this template in the past, so it's maybe a Kipper.

  Does anyone have advice for troubleshooting this?

  TIA

  Mark

• 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.

  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.

• 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.

• VMX and newspapers for the Virtual Machine

  Hi guys

  I had a virtual machine that is running but view vcenter is inaccessible

  

  take a look at the data store that I see the Virtual Machine lack .vmx file and saves the files, so I already schedule maintenance for my client windows, but I just want to be sure about:

  -Stop VM

  -Remove the inventory

  -create a new virtual machine and add the existing virtual drive

  -Power on VM, everything should be good

  

  Basically follow this KB

  http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1002294

  Or should I be worried about the consistency of VMDK?

  Thank you very much

  > Or should I be worried about the consistency of VMDK?

  Less consistency, but more info on missing hard of header/descriptor files! It seems that someone tried to delete files of the virtual machine from the store data, but because of the locks on files that only some files have been deleted. According to the used backup application, you may be able to recover the missing files in the backup. If not, you can for example follow VMware KB: Re-create a missing virtual machine disk descriptor file, or create a new virtual machine in a laboratory environment (with the same disc size, configuration and the name) and allows to download the .vmx and hard descriptor WinSCP example files. If you have enough disk space in the lab, creating thin configured virtual disks and then change the file descriptor (remove ddb.thinProvisioned = '1')
