• Configuration of ICS error with Windows XP and Windows 98SE host client

  Hello, I am trying to configure Internet connection sharing between a Windows XP host
  and a Windows 98SE client on my home network. I've run the Network Setup Wizard on the
  the host and then created the network setup disk to run on the client. After the network
  the installer finishes it asks me to remove disks, and then click ok to restart.

  After the reboot, I get a popup of error: an error has occurred loading
  'C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\upnp.dll '.

  When I click ok a new error message appears: error loading
  'C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\hnetwiz.dll '.

  It seems that the Network Wizard does not finish install and I can't access the Internet from the client. The network is connected, and I can ping both host and client liaison.

  Any help will be appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hello

  Do not run the wizards, configure the network manually.

  Look at this page and chose the manual approach, http://www.practicallynetworked.com/sharing/xp_ics/

• HA with ESXi embedded

  I just got an evaluation of VMware Infrastructure working with some blades HP BL495 using ESXi embedded (on the internal USB flash drives).

  I configured a data store on a NFS partition on a NetApp data warehouses and the virtual machines will work perfectly and VMotion works correctly.

  However, when I try to create a cluster, I get the following error:

  HA agent has an error: host in Cluster HA must have active swap userworld

  I tried following KB article: http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1004177 but am not which way I have to use with a NFS data store. All the obvious options fail.

  I saw a few comments on the web who suggest that it is not possible to use HA with swap userworld of iSCSI or NFS storage. Is this really the case? Is there no workaround solution if it is?

  This scary chain is a real name of the data store. Name only appearing in client VI is just a symlink, so that's ok.

  My recommendation: do not point uwswap to the data store. Create a folder such as ./uwswap/---

• vCenter 4.1/ESXi 4.1 material status "Communication error with the server.

  I am slot that a brand new installation of vCenter with two new installs of ESXi 4.1 connected on it. I use on Dell PowerEdge 2950 s ESXi servers. I tired the customized version of Dell and vmware ESXi vanilla version. My host vCenter is Windows 2008 R2.

  In vCenter, the two server ESXi, any version of ESXi, I run, I get "Communication error with the server" error when I click the tab hardware state. No data appears in the hardware status tab.

  Only suggestion of Dell has been updated with firmware/BIOS on the server level. I did and it did not help.

  Anyone has any suggestions or ideas what would cause this?

  I had exactly the same problem what is to have everyone on this thread.  I finally called VMware support.  It is certainly a problem with Tomcat.  Apparently, during my initial installation of tomcat server vCenter (on a Win2k8R2 vanilla Server / unreleased) na not create a database file.  The vCenter Server uninstalled eventuall tech and went through the Setup again.  For some reason any Tomcat created db it's good the second time.  After installation, it takes about 5 minutes for the db should be created.

  On Windows 2k8R2 it is located here: C:\Program Files\VMware\Infrastructure\tomcat\lib\xhiveConfig\data

  The name of the comic is VcCache-by default-0. XhiveDatabase.DB

  My server didn't have one at all.  The relocation has created, at the beginning it is 0KB in size.  After 5 minutes, it grows up to 25, 600KB.

  Everything in my vCenter works now correctly.  I'm on 4.1.320137

  I hope this helps.

• VMware ESXI host Client is not compatible with the Ipad

  Hi all

  First of all I want to say that I am very happy with the introduction of the ESXI host Client, it's a very good start for not having a vSphere client to be installed.

  One thing I was hoping too is compatible with mobile devices, for example, an IPad. Unfortunately this isn't the case. Not for IOS 8 or 9

  I tried several browsers without a bit of luck.

  There are several problems;

  • The page is not scaling properly
  • The top bar is not visible, you can, for example, sign out
  • The Web page expands when you rotate the page on the iPad horizontally, not having not not able to see the Web page complete.

  I found these problems in Tech Preview, build 2015.08.25.3015331 combined with ESXI 6 with the latest patch

  Kind regards

  Marcel

  Hi Marcel,.

  Thanks for pointing out these problems. We have made a few improvements wrt. support iPad in the last version of the adventure. Could you update and let me know how it goes?

• VMware ESXi 5 compatiable with ESXi 4 hosts tools?

  If a virtual machine created on ESXi 5 should be migrated to a host ESXi 4, would be the tools work properly?  They are backwards compatiable?

  In addition, ESXi 4 VMware tools will work correctly when migrating to an ESXi 5 host?

  Hello and welcome to the forums.

  Yes, the 4-5 and 5-4 are fully compatible.

  Good luck!

• Install ESXI embedded will not recognize NIC

  I tried to install a server ESXI embedded last night, but the facility when it does not recognize that there is a network card installed.

  I have a network card added, it's the value connected and connect to power on.  At the beginning I wanted to set up all my virtual machines in a network segment local so I thought maybe it was the question so I turned off the VM and changed the NETWORK card to one host adapter, but the installation always fails with the same error.

  Does anyone else have this problem?  The installation cannot continue without detect a network card.

  I already have a virtual 2008R2 domain controller and NETWORK adapter works fine.

  Welcome to the community,

  ESXi you selected as the guest in the Wizard New VM operating system. The virtual NETWORK card model that is used/created for the virtual machine depends on the selection of the OS. Open the virtual machine configuration (.vmx) file to see what kind of NETWORK card has been created and add ethernet0.virtualDev = "e1000" if it does not exist. If you want to manually change the file mark .vmx that tab of the virtual machine in VMware Workstation is closed, so that the configuration file is reread once you are done with editing.

• VMware ESXi 5 host stops sending the syslogs to the remote server (Splunk)

  We have recently installed a Splunk syslog server and our pointing devices are to him.   I noticed that when we stop/start the server (or service) the logs of all my ESXi 5 hosts stop coming in.

  There seems to be a known problem

  http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 2003127

  The next step 5 restart the newspaper that circulates.  But there is no way I want to log on to the console and run it whenever someone does something in Splunk that needs a reboot or the Windows box is restarted for patches.

  I started writing a script bash (below), but discovered that ESXi has really not an area of cron as has ESX4 (not i).  If I brute force to create it on the host, it will come off with tasks.

  # This checks if the syslog server is written on "SPLUNK" third-party syslog server

  # It will restart the syslog service if she sees that he has ceased to

  const = 'cannot write the journal. "

  If [/var/log/.vmsyslogd.err - e]; then

  /var/log/.vmsyslogd.err n 1 tail. grep "unable to write the log.

  If [$? = 0]; then

  echo '$const; Found in the LAST line, restart the syslog server.

  FI

  FI

  "I was going to cron to run every 15 minutes and if he saw the last line in the log that was stopped 'impossible to write the journal' so I would like to add a '.esxcli system syslog reload " inplace of the echo line.

  "I vCenter on a Windows machine and would like to run a scheduled task on all my hosts (perhaps a csv file) and then delivers."esxcli system syslog reload " if that is found.  I can't figure out how to do this, can anymore help me out?

  I'd like to use what I have, I don't have a vMA or splunks VM either.


  


  William Lam posted a script on how to do this on his blog site.  It is uses an alarm vCenter to alert in case of connectivity for the loghost is lost.

• Adding an ESXi 4 host to vCenter 5.1 Trial Version.

  Hi all

  We have a number of guests in our lab environment running ESXi 4, ESXi 4.1 and same ESXi 5.0. We thought give us vCenter 5.1 a go, so I downloaded the free trial version for 60 days, but the following error when you try to add the host:

  The host is licensed with VMware vSphere hypervisor 5. The license of vCenter Server edition doesn't support VMware vSphere hypervisor 5.

  The hosts needed to run the 5.1 ESXi hypervisor to appear on the vCenter 5.1 Trial Version?

  What if you buy vCenter 5.1, will he be able to manage 4.0/4.1/5.0 ESXi hosts? Or if you want to use vCenter 5.1 you must update all your hosts to the 5.1 ESXi hypervisor?

  Thanks for any help, much appreciated!

• Upgrade on esxi embedded 4.0 to 4.1 using dvd?

  Esxi embedded running off usb key update using dvd?

  I ask because my integrated existing esxi is fucked after I tried to upgrade using AUVs. AUVs process has failed with an error, but after a reboot, the client vsphere Summary tab shows it has been updated (IE to 4.1), but continuous AUVs to draw the attention of this upgrade is missing. I checked using the command line upgrade bundles are indeed missing. I post another thread with more details, after that I'm going through them. In the meantime, can I pass by jumping into a dvd to reinstall esxi embedded on the USB?

  Hello

  There isn't really a difference between esxi embedded and esxi installable. ESXi embedded is installable just esxi installed on a card usb or sd instead of on the hard drive. By this logic, the answer to my question would be: Yes, it can be done.

  Fix

  Just to add that some on-board ship ESXi from suppliers, which add their specific beams/drivers.

  So if you want to reinstall, try to use the specific provider ESXi ISO if available, otherwise use VMware ESXi ISO and install specific bundles of the seller after if necessary.

  The other option is just for the manual installation of the patches/Bundles on your current installation and VUM will pick them up.

  Please allow points to useful/correct answers

• Hard drives and ESXi embeded?

  For those of you who already use embeded ESXi on built in flash media in your dell/hp/ibm server etc..  ESXi embeded requires all to be present so that he can use hard disks or can you only run the complete installation on flash support.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  You can run your ESXi host entirely from flash media, your host does not need to have spinning disks.

  Of course, your virtual machines will need real storage of race. If your host will have a need to be able to connect to the storage via SAN, NAS or NFS.

  What I understand, starting with ESXi 4.1, it is even possible to boot from PXE and/or SAN directly, so in this case you would not even flash media anymore.

  Hope this helps,

• Confused in what I need [ESXi Embedded; ESX Installable; ESX 3.5]

  Hello team.

  Let me explain what I first: I need to run 6 virtual machines and manage these 6 VMs through a single window. I might be able to manage all VMs 6 using the single window (in general-, this could be any application). To manage, I mean, create snapshots, go back, use them as if I had VMware workstation. I don't need any other features. I'm looking in the plug of the machine: Quad core; 8 GB; SATA RAID.

  Now my question is how do I select ESXi Embedded or Installable or standalone ESX. Is there documentation that shows these differences or videos showing what are interfaces?

  I read the difference between ESXi and ESX and it was something citing on linux required for ESX. Does this mean that my whitebox will need Linux installed before that I could install ESX?

  ESXi is barebone architecture, which means, I'll lose admin capabilities?

  You think, with these questions, am confused? Thanks for any help in advance

  Novice user with virtualization - Manny

  Hello Manny,

  In fact, it's the same interface and the program, you use esx and esxi.

  Free ESXi, esx costs money and can do all kinds of magic to keep near 100% availability.

  You will need to have an admin on windows pc to run the VI client from.

  The VI-client (or VMware Infrastructure client) connects to your host, and from there, you can create new guests, create the snapshot, return etc.

  NO, you don't need linux. In fact my esx 3i is booting from a USB key no OS is required on the hard disk.

  I have attached a photo where you can see the interface to manage hosts.

  

• ESXi embedded, cannot start the new virtual machine

  We have installed just a Dell PowerEdge 2950 with ESXi embedded.  That part went well.  I am able to connect through the client.  I can create a new virtual machine.  That's where I met problems.  No matter what I tried the machine does not start.  I ' v tried the host device as CDROM, the device as CDROM, and even customer created ISO W2003 CD and downloaded.  I can't understand why he won't start.   Whenever he tried to boot from the network or when he fails he just says "operating system not found" and stays like that.  I started in the bios of the virtual machine and made sure the startup options are correct, etc.  I'm lost.

  I read this forum for like a day and while I see some who have had similar problems, I have not seen this precise question or a question with an answer that applies to my question.  It could be the pre holiday drink

  I hope someone can advise.

  Thank you

  Take a look at this post and try the instructions to boot from an ISO on the side of client - http://communities.vmware.com/message/1106573#1106573.

• Virtual machine compatible with VM Ware with VM ware ESXi 6.0 enterprise (not sure version)

  Hello, does anyone know if a company of VM Ware virtual machine (maybe it is version 5, not sure) is compatible with VM ware ESXi 6.0? Can I do a snapshot on the VM Ware company and copy it in VM Ware ESXi 6.0?

  Thank you!

  Will VM probably run on ESXi 6 without modification. There may be a few exceptions where some minor modifications may be required however.

  In any case, you can migrate the virtual machine with VMware Converter making a V2V conversion (2 virtual), export the virtual computer to an OVF on the former host and import it on the new, or - depending on your method of backup and application - use your last backup and restore it on the new host.
