Creating a model not supported on ESXi?

Hello.

I am trying to create a model of a new Ubuntu installation. I use VMware VI Toolkit for Windows 1.0 build 113525. My server is VMware ESX Server 3i, 3.5.0 123629.

First of all, I have tried different variations of new-model, but failed. EU from the mistakes of

PS \VMware\Infrastructure\VIToolkitForWindows C:\Program Files (x 86) & gt;  new model - VM (vm-get-name Ubuntu64-model) - name Ubuntu64template

New-model: Value is found for the required Location parameter

Online: 1 character: 14

++ new model & lt; & lt; & lt; & lt; -VM (get-vm-name Ubuntu64-model) - name Ubuntu64template +.

and

PS \VMware\Infrastructure\VIToolkitForWindows C:\Program Files (x 86) & gt;  new model - VM (vm-get-name Ubuntu64-model) - name Ubuntu64template - locati

on (get-file-name "vm")

New-model: 2009-01-24 21:16:28 5268e87a-951c-f95a-166b-c5cde7c72260 New-model, the operation is not supported on the object.

Online: 1 character: 14

++ new model & lt; & lt; & lt; & lt; -VM (get-vm-name Ubuntu64-model) - name Ubuntu64template-location (get-file-name "vm") +.

and

PS \VMware\Infrastructure\VIToolkitForWindows C:\Program Files (x 86) & gt;  new model - VM (vm-get-name Ubuntu64-model) - name Ubuntu64template - Locati

on (get-data store)

New-model: cannot bind parameter 'rental '. Cannot convert the 'storage' to 'VMware.VimAutomation.Types.VIContainer '.

At line: 1 char: 84

++ new-template - VM (vm-get-name Ubuntu64-model) - name Ubuntu64template-location & lt; & lt; & lt; & lt; (get-datastore) +.

http://communities.vmware.com/message/879931#879931 mentions that there is a bug in the beta version, but has it been fixed in 113525?

I found the discussion at http://communities.VMware.com/message/1114905#1114905 and tried the following:

PS C:\ & gt; $vm = get - vm "Ubuntu64-template | Get-opinion

PS C:\ & gt; $vm. MarkAsTemplate()

Exception by calling 'MarkAsTemplate' with '0' or the arguments: "the operation is not supported on the object."

On line: 1 char: 19

+ $vm. MarkAsTemplate (& lt; & lt; & lt; & lt ;)

By reading http://pubs.VMware.com/VI-SDK/visdk250/ReferenceGuide/vmodl.Fault.NotSupported.html looks that this exception is thrown because ESXi does not support templates. Is that correct?

Creating a model is a function of Virtual Center.

  • vCenter 5.1.0b does not support vSphere ESXi 5.0.0?

    I came across a weird error today at work.

    Immediately after installing vCenter 5.1.0b, I tried to add a host to a data center newly created ESXi 5.0.0.

    I met an error that said, vCenter does not support the hosts of this type.

    I thought, really?  The compatibility matrix says it does.

    At this time, I left for the day and will answer on Monday.

    In the meantime, is someone met such a mistake?

  • not supported for ESXi 4 NIC... Can I simply add a NETWORK card?

    Maybe it's painfully obvious, but I don't want to assume anything.  I tried to install ESXi 4u1 this morning on a machine just to see if it would work, and I have not reported any supported network cards.  Can I buy a NETWORK card support and then ESXi 4 will work?  Is it really as simple as that, or is there some other stuff that I'm not aware of?

  • Help please: CloneVM_Task is created but will fail with: operation not supported on the object

    Someone Please help with this, I'm breaking my head with this for 5 hours now.

    I submit, in CloneVM_Task with the following XML (which returns a task id back http://i.e. the application has been accepted in this format):

    & lt; CloneVM_Task xmlns = "urn: vim25" & gt;

    & lt; _C type = 'VirtualMachine' & gt; VM - 938 & lt; / _This & gt;

    & lt; record type = "Folder" & gt; Group d1 & lt; / file & gt;

    & lt; name & gt; 1_UBUNTU 804 & lt; / name & gt;.

    & lt; spec & gt;

    & lt; location & gt;

    & lt; data store type = "Datastore" & gt; datastore-683 & lt; / store data & gt;

    & lt; pool type = "ResourcePool" & gt; resgroup-57 & lt; / pool & gt;

    & lt; / location & gt;

    & lt; / config & gt;

    & lt; / spec & gt;

    & lt; / CloneVM_Task & gt;

    However, the task itself returns an error saying: the operation is not supported on the object.

    Does anyone know what it is?

    The info that I'm sending should be 100% correct:

    - vm_id: the machine ID of the virtual MODEL VM I'm cloning (100% certain that it is correct)

    - file: the rootFolder returned by ServicContent

    - data store: the data store ONLY I should store VM on. When I query for this data store information it shows clearly that it is accessible and multipleHostAccess = true, so

    - resourcePool: I got this info when querying my ComputeResource properties. I have 1 cluster and resourcePool value that's what I put.

    I really have NO idea what's going wrong here... The CloneVM_Task creates a task - but that's where everything falls apart.

    Please HELP!

    Yes, you should not use the rootFolder, which is just the folder root inventory integer vCenter. A default vmFolder will still exists if you have additional folders, and that's the one you reference to. By default, you must question him to do this, where one day you decide to create folders against hard coding moref ID. The IDS are digital and probably default folder gets this value by iteration, but again, I recommend he petitioned against hard this coding.

    We believe that it is somehow to do with Hyper-V under Windows 2008 and vWorkSpace running on Windows 2012 - the VHDX format is not supported by the version of Hyper-V server. A glance online confirms this. So my question is, how update the master image changed the format VHD vWorkSpace wants to use and is there a way to assign vWorkSpace don't know this format?

    I have widely in search of a solution to this line and not found anything it either, nor there seems a clear way in the vWorkSpace console to change that.

    Thank you

    Hello

    I suspect that you have created a snapshot on your model.  It is not supported, if you delete the snapshot so that the .avhd is merged to the vhd/vhdx and update the model in vWorkspace again.  If this does not work, you will need to delete the model of vWorkspace and then re-import.

  • Virtual and models - computers cannot move the VM in the folder "operation is not supported on the object."

    Hey everybody,

    We are running vSphere 4.0. During the whole period that we used vSphere, we use vApps and Resource Pools hosts and Clusters to organize and manage the virtual machines used by our production team and test. From what I understand, this can be semantically incorrect (see: http://virtualizationreview.com/blogs/everyday-virtualization/2010/10/vsphere-folder-organization.aspx). So, I've navigated to models and virtual computers, created in folders with permissions of the user and tried to move their respective VMs to their folders... and I get the following error:

    "The operation is not supported on the object."

    So, should I go on the resolution of this or to leave things as they are?

    What are your opinions?

    Is there a right or wrong way to manage VMs of the multiple users?

    Thank you for your time and help,

    Johnathan

    Avinash21,

    Thanks for the tip.

    Move the virtual machines of the TIME solved the problem.

    When I suggest them to the root of the host, I was able to move in a user folder.

    Thanks again,

    Johnathan

  • ESXi 4.1 - Dell Poweredge 2850 - tape backup - host does not support configuring passthrough

    I'm trying to get a tape backup to work on my ESXi host, so I can save my win2003 VM.  I get this error under VMDirectPath, 'host does not support configuring passthrough ".  Under Configuration > storage adapters > I don't see my tape drive listed.  Also, I noticed that my SCSI controller card is NOT on the HCL (Adaptec 39160).  See.  This is probably why passthrough doesn't work.

    So, I was thinking of buying this one (Adaptec 39320) because he seems to be on the list.  This will solve my problem or is this server too old for passthrough to work?

    To use VMDirectpath on an Intel Server chipset used must support Intel VT - d (Directed i/o).   I don't think that's the case with the models of 2850, but if it was you would see an option in the BIOS to enable this.  It is a separate option of VT - x, which allows the host run the 64-bit clients.
