• Creating a virtual machine for Linux guest in another HARD drive

  Hi all

  I have Vmware Workstation 8.0 on windows 7 x 64. This window is installed in the primary SSD (Sata port 0), also its mbr. I also have a Linux Ubuntu Natty x 64 in my HDD (Sata port 1) with Grub installed on the HARD drive. So when I go to start my SDD just windows when I want linux, simply go to the HARD drive.

  I tried to create a virtual machine to access the linux (using the physical disk, persistent writing) as a guest during the use of windows as a host, but so far had no success. Just to easy access to linux.

  I get the message of follow-up:

  

  The configuration for this virtual machine as follows:

  

  Intel Virtualization is enabled in my BIOS.

  My specs are:

  Processor

  Processor Intel® Core™ i7 2630QM

  Chipset

  Intel® HM65 Express Chipset

  8 GB DDR3 1333 MHz SDRAM

  NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 460M 1.5 GB GDDR5 VRAM

  OCZ Vertex 3 128 GB SDD

  Western Digital 640 GB HARD drive

  Could someone help me?

  try to use "fullDevice" instead of "partitionedDevice" when you add the physical disk.

  It may also be necessary to put the disk status 'offline '.

  This worked in WS before 7?

  You can reach the vmware.log?

• How to resize the size of the virtual disk for Linux guest OS

  Hello

  I installed VMWare WS 6.5 on my host OS (Vista) and have created a guest VM with RedHat like OS.  When creating, I've specified to create a virtual disk with a size of 8 GB, but have not selected the option of immediate creation - it being understood that VM is assigned additional as needed.  But now, on the comments and space use is 100%.  How can I allocate extra space for the virtual machine?  Also, is it possible to go beyond 8 GB, if so how.

  Enjoy your time, help.

  Concerning

  VMware-vdiskmanager allows to extend the virtual disk and use a third-party utility to extend the partition of guest operating system after having developed the virtual disk.

  Make a backup of your virtual machine before you do anything and you ensure that you don't have any snapshots

• vmware for linux guest tools installation problem

  a mount cdrom. When I mount it should create this folder

  / tmp/VMware-Tools-distrib accordingly to the instructions vmwware. CD/tmp and I do not see this file...

  any ideas?

  Hello

  You will get this folder after you one) copy. tar.gz file in your CDrom file in / tmp and then unzip it (index):

  tar xvzf 
  

  )

  It does not automatically.

  You get errors? I also recommend to check the customer that has been deployed, for linux guests, there is a log file of the customization specification and I want to say its somewhere in/var/log/vmware, but I don't remember the exact name of the file. You can see what happened in and if there is no error. Also, I assume that you have looked at the list of taken guestOSes supported for customization of comments?

• Display drivers for linux

  Hi MichalDyzma,

  Months ago I had the same problem with a toshiba laptop from a friend. He wants to also install a linux distribution and I found a page very good linux toshiba.
  Maybe your model is also listed as compatible with linux!

  -vSwitch1 uses vmnic2 on network virtual vmnet18

  -vmk0 used for management on vSwitch0 and vmk1 for iSCSI on vSwitch1

  -"Promiscuous" mode and forged passes enabled on all Port vSwitch groups (activating or turning off these features makes no difference)

  Test performed until now

  I checked that all the IP addresses and network masks used are correct.

  With the help of vmkping I ping other nodes on the network vmnet16 with success.

  With the help of vmkping I tried to ping the other nodes in the network vmnet18, but that has failed.

  I have depolyed other non - ESXi VMs on the vmnet18 network, and they are able to ping each other, but are unable to ping or ping by the ESXI host.

  I tried various material virtual NIC as mentioned before, but without changes in the results.

  I tried to use only local network instead of the vmnet18 guest network segments with no change in results.

  When I find out the status of the network adapters on the ESXi host through vCenter or host incorporated client vmnic0 & 1 time display network information, but vmnic2 shows no networks. Yet, I know that there is a network with different VM communicate on it. Moreover, I was able to get all of this work on a Windows system running 10 Workstation (this is the laptop that my employer gives me with).

  Having built nested ESXi labs on different platforms as well as physical environments in the past, I'm very confused as to why I can't get this special configuration to work. At this point my gut tells me that this is probably a bug any with the nested themselves ESXi hosts. Since I can get all this work on vmnet16 including the management of ESXi hosts and the VCSA that I use, I am sure that my vSwitch configuration is correct (other than the IP address space and vmnic configurations is bascially the same). Because I can get other virtual machines to communicate over the network vmnet18 I don't see how can be a VMware Workstation for the issue physical Linux host. Is there something obvious I'm missing here? I read on the ESXi hosts nested under VMware Workstation after having known problems and bugs with networking. If anyone else has experienced this?

  Thanks for any help others can provide!

  Kind regards

  Well, the problem is now resolved. The problem was what covelli was trying to explain, but I couldn't because the physical host network adapters being mentioned.

  The problem on the Linux host, but it was a problem of permissions with the virtual Ethernet adapters. The following article has the fix:
  With the help of Ethernet virtual cards in Promiscuous Mode on a Linux host (287) | VMware KB

  Even if I launched the workstation under the root user I have yet met this problem and which still makes no sense to me, but change the permissions solve the problem. I was not getting an error message on my Linux Mint and Ubuntu system, but when I tried on a second box of Linux Mint that I just got the error has been generated, and the error message was the above link it contains.

  So, here's what I learned:

  (1) the question has nothing to with a VMware Workstation definition that you can configure.

  (2) the question has nothing to do with a physical network card.
  (3) the question has nothing to do with any vmnic on the nested ESXi host.

  (4) apparently virtual Ethernet adapters are not the correct permissions when created.

  All you have to do to fix this is:

  (1) open a terminal.

  (2) run the command ' sudo chmod a + rw/dev/vmnet * "(don't forget to run this each time that you create a new virtual network).

  You can also create a group, as shown in the link above and simply give this group the correct permissions. Personally, I think it's easier to just give everyone the rw permission.

  I appreciate the help that others have offered. I did not understand what was asked for in previous answers because of the terms that have been used.

• Username or password for the guest OS

  Hello

  HostOS: Ubuntu 8.10

  GuestOS: Windows Server 2003

  I'll build a regression test environment and I need to be able to use the command line to start a virtual machine and discover its external IP address so that I can query a database that I have stored on it.  I am able to start my virtual machine to the command-line help:

  vmrun T - h server http://127.0.0.1:8222 / sdk runProgramInGuest u '[local] Integrated Testing VM/winnetstandard.vmx' C:\Windows\system32\ipconfig.exe

  fails with a ' error: username or password for the guest OS.

  I assure you that comments username and password I use are valid.  I tried with user domain\username, username, etc.  I installed the latest VM for the guest OS tools.  I tried connecting manually first guest OS, so that the VM tools to perform before I called vmrun. I know I can find the IP address of the guest OS through the section of the status of the web utility or by running the console OS comments; However, in my final project, users will only to have command line access.

  What I am doing wrong with my order of runProgramInGuest?  Or, better yet, is there a simpler way to get the IP address of the OS from the command line?

  I'm under VMServer 2.0 on Ubuntu 8.10 with a guest OS of Windows Server 2003.

  Thank you!

  I need to start a virtual machine and find the IP address signed by

  Check /var/log/vmware/hostd.log on the host

  Remember that if you use a format domainsername user then on Linux you need to escape the backslash so it would be the field
  username, if you have not indeed get you the error "invalid username or password for the operating system prompted". Similarly to the backslash characters in the path of the program to run in the comments and you must specify the full path.

• When released the new version of Mozilla Firefox for Linux.

  Whenever I open the browser, it continues to display the message that is earlier than the version of my browser.

  But I cant Update since its not released yet for Linux.
  

  Do not wait for the new Version to be published
  Other than that, the browser is fast and easy to use

  You seem to have the provided version of Firefox 35.0.1 Ubuntu

  You can get the update of Firefox 39.0 of in on your distribution package manager or you can get Firefox from www.mozilla.org or www.mozilla.org/firefox/all

  If you choose to mozilla.org , sure it is 64-bit as 32 bits will not run unless you have the appropriate packages.

• Linux, Firefox 21.0 and the last flash for LINUX (11.2). I can't view youtube videos because firefox has disabled the plugin. Help!

  An hour ago, I watched with happiness of the videos from youtube on Linux using Firefox 20.0 and 11.2 flash. I've just updated firefox and it of now my blocking flash and invites me to update. The problem is I can't update because 11.2 is the LATEST version of the flash for firefox plugin, there is no other version.

  Is there a way to prevent the deactivation of my firefox plugin?

  The directory structure, at least for linux, seems to have changed for version 21. I have my distribution of firefox / opt/firefox /, and so far I keep the plugin flash in/opt/firefox/plugins /. Verse 21, the plugin directory should be/opt/firefox/browser/plugins/EC directory does not exist by default. You can create or mv just the old directory of plugin to the new location

  $ cd/opt/firefox / #(ou partout où votre firefox est installé)
  $ mv plugins / browser /.

  Icons / directory has also been moved to that subdirectory, that's why my office firefox button was not correctly displayed after the update.

  -The main thing that firefox really should do is to archive the previous version of firefox, whenever there is an update. It is ridiculous to have to deal with this kind of issue immediately after an update when you have important work to do on time! To do a simple option to temporarily return to the previous version of firefox. It would be trivial to implement and could be used when a new release breaks something.

• 9/10 on 8.1 windows workstation host no noise for kali guest vm

  Hello

  Recently, I have a new dell xps desktop computer and installed workstation 9 on it.  When I created my kali Linux guest virtual machine, I noticed that I have no sound output at all.  I did a lot of Googling to see if there is an obvious answer, but so far I have had no success to correct this problem.

  Characteristics of the host:

  Dell xps 8700 reference

  Intel i7 processor, 16 GB of ram

  NVIDIA video card

  map its Realtek 4850 (I think it's the right version).

  When I created windows xp and windows 7 guest VM I have sound, but not with linus vms.

  I checked my vm Linux of kali has the installed firmware-realtek and there are audio drivers loaded.

  I checked my setting of sound material of the virtual machine is audio digital and when I click on the test button I hear the sounds of the left and the right side of my usb headset but not the speakers when the headset is unplugged.

  I've upgraded to workstation 10 to see if this corrects the problem, but so far without success there either.

  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated because I'm blind and need to sound to interact effectively with the gnome desktop.

  I finally thought to it.  I had connect the sound card on the virtual machine by using the menu remote devices, then I was able to use alsamixer for choosing the right card (es1371) instead of the default sound card. That allowed me to set the overall volume at an appropriate and then level level I used alsactl store to store the settings and rebooted. Here I got sound!

• The purpose of VMware Tools in a Linux guest?

  There are benefits to install VMware tools in a Linux without head/command line only VM?  The only things I see it adding would share his IP address info.  Are there features that I miss out on by installing do not?

  Indeed, as the RPM and tar from the instructions in file ends with "Start X Windows", it seems that it is not designed for anything other than the GUI (for mouse tracking/display setting enhancements)?

  With VMware tools, you can make things easier. For example, you can do 'clean shutdown' of the machine virtual of ESXi, or synchronize the time between ESXi and VM. I'm not sure but I think that vmware balooning pilot would need tools to work correctly.

  But you can still live without vmware-tools and perform all of the above tasks (although not as easily). Personally, I don't use vmware-tools with linux-VM as modular kernel is not permitted in our society.
