DirectSound resources such as the level of priority were already in use by an other appellant - have no sound - no audio device

Hi CindySantonas,

·         You have made any changes recently?

This problem can occur if your sound card is not configured in the Panel as default device for sound playback.

Method 1: Follow the below mentioned article and see if it helps.

Sounds may not play in programs and you receive an error message "0x8878000a" in the DirectX Diagnostic tool in Windows XP, Windows 2000, or Windows Millennium Edition

Method 2: Run automated troubleshooting and check if it helps.

  • is it possible to set the level of priority permanently running in the Task Manager?

    Hello!

    1. My question is anyway to change the level of priority at all times by a program running in the Task Manager?
    • For example; I am using a software called xpadder that is for players for the games which are rather old and do not support the for windows xbox controller so I want to change the priority level of this software in the Task Manager, as I don't have to change the priority level from the top on normal or high normal etc whenever I run...

    So a little help would be really grateful :)

    Windows does not support this setting, sorry.

  • who can help me with "insufficient resources to meet the level of failover configured for vSphere HA.

    Hello world

    We tried to gif a 14GB of ram and make server complete a booking for her.
    This is a server for the exams and the vendor told us to do.

    I can't any more then 5500MB reservation on it, when I anymore that I get
    "Insufficient resources to meet the level of failover configured for vSphere HA.

    We have:

    2 X 5.1 ESXi hosts
    Each host has
    2 x processors (8 Cores each) with HT active.
    255,75 GB of Ram

    vSphere HA has been activated.
    Admission control policy is enabled and that the ability to failover is 1 host.

    What is the problem here?

    Thank you
    Ernst.


    Admission control policy is all about to give you the kind of guarantee that if the host failure happens then there will be enough resources to perform the successful failover.

    in simple terms, it comes to reserve the resources of failover.

    I would recommend going through the notion of vSphere HA, reduced control policy the following document.

    https://pubs.VMware.com/vSphere-60/topic/com.VMware.ICbase/PDF/vSphere-ESXi-vCenter-Server-60-availability-Guide.PDF

    From the Page number 22, the details that you need to study is given. Focus especially on part calculations Slot size of it.

    in your case you HA vSphere with number of failure of host to tolerate as admission control strategy defined.

    This means system will calculate CPU and memory slots out of the resources in your cluster, and the total number of units, it will keep some resources like reserved for failover, and others will be available to be used. It all depends on how much failure of hosts that you want to tolerate.

    now in your case, if you try to increase booking one of the virtual machine, which will then affect the number of locations in your environment, and so reserved ability to failover is violated, the system will not let you do what you want to do. As the energy on a virtual machine, or growing booking a powered VM etc..

    If you find that you have enough resources in your cluster and due to some virtual machines with very large cpu or memory reservation, number of places is less than you can still manage the settings some advanced in vSphere HA configuration, but I strongly recommend, try to take the help of someone who has done it before.

    also try to go through other admission control strategies which are explained in the document for more inputs.

    Hello

    I don't know if anyone can point me in the right direction, but I'm having a problem with the configuration of the HA on a cluster for the moment when he returned with the warning following 'insufficient resources to meet the level of failover HA.

  • Not enough resources to meet the level of failover configured for vSphere HA

    I have a cluster of vSphere based 5.0 based on ESXi 5 knots 2.

    When I try to start a virtual machine, I get an error saying that there is "insufficient resources to meet the level of failover configured for vSphere HA.

    If I turn off an another VM the problem disappears and I can turn on my VM.

    If I try to turn on the virtual machine, I have already turned off, I get the error again.

    It seems obvious that there is a lack resources or some setting is misconfigured, but even after reading the forums and manuals, I am unable to locate the critical resource or parameter that is not correct.

    Based on my experience or vSphere server and ESXi servers are overloaded.

    I have an another similar cluster of hosting a larger number of virtual machines with no similar problem.

    This performance counter and this setting should check to identify the bottleneck?

    Concerning

    Marius

    To check reservations for virtual machines, I would select the Cluster in your vCenter inventory, then select the resources"" tab.  Which displays the child objects of the bunch (VMs, Resource Pools, vApps).  There you can watch settings of CPU resources and memory.  You'll want to watch the column of "Reserves".

    To find the size of the slot and places available, look at the tab "Summary" of your cluster.  There is a tile marked "vSphere HA.  In this mosaic, there will be a link for "Advanced Runtime Info" which will open a new window with the location information.

    When the Admission AP policy is set to "Number of failures of host cluster will tolerate", HA has a very pessimistic view of your resources, since it must be able to handle all the possibilities.

    Another option would be to change the admission control strategy in settings of Cluster HA to "percentage of resources reserved for failover.  It reserves a part of the resources for use by HA in the case of a failover, rather than trying to calculate the size of the individual virtual machines.  With a 2 cluster nodes, I think it a relatively safe bet to set these values to 50%, as your worst case scenario HA would be losing a single host on 2.

    Hi Tsaton,
     

    Your question of Windows is more complex than what is generally answered in the Microsoft Answers forums, since it is linked to the issue in Windows Server 2008 machine. Appropriate in instances of Windows Server.

    Please post your question in the Forums of Windows Server.

  • I can't change "sounds and audio devices" in the Panel

    original title: I can't change "sounds and audio devices" in the control panel after the update my card NVIDIA vidio driver and Microsoft DirectX in my Windows XP SP3 update.  How can I fix it?

    I recently updated my card (NVIDIA GeForce 6800 GT) video driver and Microsoft DirectX after you have experienced a problem with a casual game.  That fixed the problem, but then I noticed that my sound 'e-mail notification' had failed in its original supplied with Windows.  I changed "Sounds and Audio devices", registered, registered as a new regime, etc., and still plays the old default Windows sound.  It was the only noise I had on Windows.  When I check "Sounds and Audio devices", the sound, I have chosen is the one listed, and it does not play when I check, but when the mail arrives, I hear the old Windows by default.  I don't know if the updates, to happen or not, caused only that it took place at the same time.  Thanks for any help you can give.

    Thank you for your suggestions.  It turns out that my e-mail client, "Eudora", had somehow reset the default mode in the Windows sounds.  I forgot that there is a choice to "Be careful" in Eudora Tools.  After I changed it back, it worked perfectly.  Once again, thank you to answer me.

  • ESXi 5.1 - insufficient resources to meet the level of failover configured for vSphere HA

    Hi, I tried to understand why there are insufficient resources to supply an only little VM in my vSphere cluster.

    2 X 5.1 ESXi hosts

    Each host has

    2 x processors (8 cores each) with HT active

    192 GB OF RAM

    vSphere HA has been activated.

    Admission control policy set to "tolerate failures of the host in the cluster" with the value 1.

    With 2 GB of vRAM and 1 vCPU has created a virtual machine.  No memory and CPU Hotel booking.

    I put one of the host in maintenance mode and try to turn on the virtual machine, but it failed to power upward with the error "insufficient resources to meet the configured switch level for vSphere HA.

    Am I missing something?

    Thank you

    I put one of the host in maintenance mode and try to turn on the virtual machine, but it failed to power upward with the error "insufficient resources to meet the configured switch level for vSphere HA.

    When having two hosts only no host doesn't stay for failover when one of these hosts are in maintenance mode... That is why it gives you this message...

  • Not enough resources to meet the level of HA failover in the cluster in data center

    Hi guys,.

    We just migrated our ESX 4 clusters to a new VirtualCenter (version of Base 2.5 - & gt; 2.5U4), and one of the clusters is showing «insufficient resources to meet the HA...» "error message.

    First of all - is it possible to refine what host is at the origin of the problem (or VC), or is it a real issue with ability?

    I followed some VMTN articles to avoid the usual bugs: -.

    • Ensure all host FQDN, and domain names are lowercase in VC - home | Configuration | DNS and routing

    • Make sure while tiny in/etc/hosts, sysconfig, /etc/vmware/esx.conf and/proc/sys/kernel/hostname on all 4 hosts.

    • Deactivated / reactivated HA on the cluster

    • Looked into the VC vpxd*.log the period of time during which HA was past - but don't know what to look for?  There are a few warnings such as:

      • Warning 'Local' 5940] FormatField: optional unset (vim.event.VmUuidAssignedEvent.vm)

      • "VpxProfiler" 2752 WARNING] InvtHostSyncLRO::StartWork took ms 2203

      • Warning 'Local' 6032] FormatField: optional unset (vim.event.HostDasErrorEvent.message)

      • "PropertyJournal" 5380 WARNING] ERProviderImpl & lt; BaseT & gt; : _GetChanges: global version name overflow host-600

      • .. .etc

    There are 4 hosts in the cluster - and capacity seems ok.  I watched [doc ability vmwarewolfs | ] http://www.vmwarewolf.com/HA-failover-capacity/ [ ], but am not sure that I totally understand it.

    4 guests look like:

    1 - 32 GB RAM (22 in use) / 17600 Mhz CPU (5548 current usage)

    2 - 64 GB RAM (31 in use) / 17600 Mhz CPU (7661 current usage)

    3 - 32 GB RAM (18 in use) / 17600 Mhz CPU (4210 current usage)

    4 - 64 GB RAM (20 in service) / 17600 Mhz CPU (7440 current usage)

    How can I work if there are really insufficient resources or is it a bug that will be bypassed by creating a new cluster and migrate more hosts in maintenance mode?

    Thanks for your time guys!

    You have all vms with a high reserve (memory or cpu)? If so, this can cause the HA being too conservative admission control algorithm. The guide of availability of vSphere for details on the algorithm of "slot" - http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vsphere4/r40/vsp_40_availability.pdf, especially pages 13-16. Some of the mentioned options are only available in vSphere 4, but the basic mechanism is also applicable to the VC 2.5.

    VC 2.5 does not expose the details of accommodation through the user interface as vSphere 4, but you can get some information in the vpxd newspaper. Try the power on a virtual machine (you should get an error message on failover insufficient capacity) and look in the logs of vpxd for 'Housing news' - the following lines should have a few details - download those to this topic if you need help their deciphering.

  • Not enough resources to meet the level of failover configured for HA

    Hello!

    This error message is pretty well documented on the VMware site and elsewhere. It is received when it exceeds the capacity of (CPU and RAM) calculated the HA cluster resources.

    That said, despite what I understand, I can't understand why I runner of am limited to VMs than 6 (otherwise, the I get message error en the title) on cluster of United Nations HA (FT not DRS) of 2 servers, while the alors que les ressources resources averages used are about 10 to 20% only of those available for.

    I have 40GB of RAM and 19.2 GHz per server. I calculated according to the method explained here: http://www.yellow-bricks.com/vmware-high-availability-deepdiv/.

    Maximum reserve of United Nations I 2 GB and 2.2 GHz on VMS (less pay some), but the limits are left in general 'Unlimited '. The 'Actions' are 'Normal '.

    In short, here are the numbers that vSphere client gives me pour the cluster:

    CPU:

    Total capacity: 37440 MHz

    Reserve capacity: 27424 MHz

    Available capacity: 10016 MHz

    How about you? You drive your virtual machines with what reservations? (I tried to roll them up to 0, but some virtual machines (originally imported from GSX in ESX 3.5 and ESX 4.0) won't roll or plant.)

    P.S. Yes! I know that I can from this error by clicking "Allow VMs to be powered even if they violate the constraints of availability", but I like to keep the option of 'prevent' up to ' that I understand better what happens... or doesn't.

    Hello

    I would recommend you take advantage of the offer of discounts for Windows 8.

    Normally, it would be better to buy a computer with the latest version of Windows pre-installed because the computer could be certified to run the pre-installed operationg system.

    However, in this case, all the computers that are available with the upgrade of $15 are all designed to run the final version of Windows 8.
