Duplicate the NIC GUID under Windows 2008 R2

I have created a model of Windows 2008 R2 and you can "Deploy VMS of this model" with her.

I can also use the comments customization feature to configure the virtual machine created from this model, and they get properly configured (joined to the domain, key license added, etc.).

The problem is that when I go to create a cluster with these hosts, it fails with the following error:

'Validate that Windows Firewall is configured correctly to allow failover cluster network communication.
An error occurred while running the test.
There was an error in checking configuration of the firewall.
An element with the same key has already been added. »

When I do a "get-wmiobject win32_networkadapter | "fl name, guid" in powershell, I see that the network cards on the two hosts have the same GUID.

If I make a sysprep on the host computer before making a model then I get the unique GUID but customization of VMWare does not work.

Either I shouldn't need to do the sysprep command myself (as for some reason, it's on the vcenter server) or the unattended answer file, I use when I manually sysprep has misconfigured options.

If anyone has encountered this error and is there a solution outside "deploy model, then manually uninstall and add network adapters.

Any help would be appreciated.

The last step of the bulding your model must be to remove and uninstall your Windows Server's network card.

Before you convert your virtual machine to a model you add a new network card, to make sure that each virtual computer you deploy from your new model will have its unique NIC

Kind regards

  • Windows Media Center has stopped updating the lists Guide for Windows 7

    Windows 10 will go out the next Wednesday July 29, 2015. I have Windows 7 and I have technical problems with the Guide in Windows Media Center lists. This isn't updated Guide lists and I wonder if this problem is related to the upgrade of Windows 10?

    I called a technician to answer Microsoft desktop and the technician fixed my computer errors. Unfortunately, he could not fix this problem. Even though I always reset and auto update of listings in the Guide, the result will prove be the same with "no data."

    Windows Media Center has given me many error messages:

    Windows Media Center

    "Windows Media Center has corrected a problem with your registration data and will download the Guide even once. You should review your records to make sure they are always planned properly. »

You may be able to get the TV show lists, if they are available. »

    "The Guide could not be downloaded. For more information, then Windows Media Center system tray icon right-click and open Windows Media Center update log. »

    I can watch TV on the computer using Windows Media Center and manually record TV shows, but it is difficult for me to record TV shows without ads Guide on Windows Media Center.

    Note to update (as of August 2, 2015):

    The Electronic Program Guide (EPG) for Windows Media Center Guide ads was already programmed by zap2it until July 21. After July 21, zap2it is no longer can update the lists Guide for Windows Media Center.

    July 23, Rovi Corporation's new Electronic Program Guide (EPG) for Windows Media Center Guide ads.

    From 23 July, listings in Windows Media Center Guide is running back to normal for Windows 7 users.

    My Guide Panel is equipped with a selector more [on the listings in the Guide] where is the expiration date. I hope that Microsoft does not support Windows 7 WMC.

    Please don't waste your time trying to solve the WMC, it is the expiration of the license that is causing the problem. I know it's frustrating.

    On the other hand, is - can anyone say with certainty that WMC is available on Windows 10? No charge for the upgrade to Windows 7?

    The way I see it, not providing the function of key in W7 WMC guide is motivation upgrading to W10, assuming that WMC is available.

    Hopefully Microsoft will give us the fix for WMC in W7.

  • expansion of volume under Windows 2008 Std.Ed RDM. x 64

    Hello

    I read some of the threads here related to this issue but unclear again this would be better as well. My situation is that I do not expandad actuall my RDM from 500 MB to 1 TB for the file system, but Windows 2008. There are interesting feature in Win 2008 where you can shrink or expand the volume depending on the size of your hard drive.

    So my question is how do Windows to see the additional space without rebooting the file server that is running 24 x 7?

    Best regards

    Based on the tests I did with our lab gear, changing the size of a ROW in virtual mode requires a power/power on the virtual machine (not ESX host) cycle before the change of the size of the disk becomes visible to the virtual machine.

  • What is called the CAD process under windows

    Hi all

    I installed on windows 2008 Server (10.1.3.4) DAC. When I go to start > programs > DAC > start server, I see a dos window which shows statements, but it does not say the dac Server began in everywhere.

    When I look in the Task Manager, I don't see anything that specifies the dac server. When I connect to the console a few times I see the status of the server like Orange icon.

    I'm confused :-(how should I confirm that the dac server runs on the server, which processes search etc.

    in older versions the process window would remain but not this version, I guess, what is Server 2008?


    Thanks for your help!
    biadmin

    Hello

    Normally the icon in the upper right corner of the UI DAC becomes Orange when server DAC works and is in a State of rest. ETL is running, switch to the Green so if the server is down, it passes to the Red

    1. If you are on windows, when you start the DAC server you don't see the window cmd back unless you change the file startserver.bat CAD file, comment out the line (JAVAW %) and the United Nations commentary line (JAVA %).
    2. an option under windows is you can create DAC server as a Windows Service and monitor the situation.
    3. on UNIX if DAC Server is running, you can check if the default port 3141 is listening

    Hope this helps

    Under Windows XP 32 bit card on my Photosmart 8450 network reader appeared as a network drive in Windows Explorer. Now that I've migrated to Windows 7 64 bit I get no network drive and if I put an SD card in the drive I get a 'map' mistake of access on the display panel. It is to be expected with the built-in drivers for Win 7? If so, is there no work around?

    Hello

    Thanks for the reply and sorry for not getting back sooner. Been strongly concerned about the end.

    I just find the solution to both problems.

    1. the card reader does not accept SD - HC cards. When I put an ordinary SD it worked fine.

    2 network drive mapping could not find the printer, even if I can print to it without any problems. I had recently also changed the router and discovered that the IP assigned to the printer was within the range of IP addresses assigned by DHCP. Changed static address to + 1.  Still did not work; posted in printer address was unidentifiable. Sitched printer, pulled ethernet cable outlet, turned on, plugged the ethernet cable. Bingo! The network drive works now.
