• VMWare View

  Alguem ja participou some projeto envolvendo VMWare View 4?

  Rising preciso fazer dimensioning of ESX host para VMWare View 4, gostaria of sabre is alguem tem material if that ajude a medir a need of material para virtualizacao of jobs.

  Como exemplo tenho uma asked seria virtualizar 50 posts work com Windows XP, 1CPU, 1 GB RAM, 80 GB HD.

  Obrigado.

  Is NAO para uncio sizing Virtual Office. Assim como Server virtual machines, virtual office unico e cada.

  Avaliable documents 'generic' com Museum of Virtual Desktop, mas o e tamanhos ideal medir o seu desktop! Or seja, quanto um usuario padrão da sua empresa no console Proc, Memoria of IO, no office atual dele.

  Com isso em growing, você fazer das VMs do da mesma forma as voce faz hoje sizing. Cuidado com only:

  -Storm boot: Em some momentos do dia voce uso expressivo das VMs, por exemplo, quando os users chegarem todos para trabalhar manha. MAS isso tmb pode ocorrer scan av durante, patches, etc.

  -Limits: Como VMs Office sao, em geral, menor as servers e but easy esbarrar our limits number of VMs per ESX: host, cluster, data store, etc.

  -Overcommitment com Cuidado: VDI impacta diretamente o usuario, em tudo as ele fizer.

  -Cuidado com IOPS / s of disco: mesmo reason

• Requires ESX VMware view?

  Hey guys,.

  This may be a very stupid question, but do you need ESX(I) to run VMware View?
  I guess you need to create a cluster of some sort to host virtual offices and
  I wonder if ESX (i) comes into play at all. Try to determine the future needs of license here.

  See you soon

  Yes, VMware view must either ESX or ESX (i) to install and also a Virtual Center to be configured and cluster to build with the ESX hosts, added to the cluster.

  With regard to the requirement for Vmware View 4.5 Lincense

  VMware View is always available in editions company and first and can be purchased as a package or as an add-on for those who have existing vSphere licenses to a separate purchase (which is not part of a set of view). With view 4.5, customers have a way to upgrade available to view Enterprise and View first modules to complete sets. Key updates include:

  • See Business Starter Kit and View Prime Starter Kit now includes VMware vCenter Standard for desktop computers (updated VMware vCenter Foundation for desktop computers).
  • View first beams, View first add-ons and View first upgrades include now the two new components introduced with view 4.5: vShield Endpoint and View Client with Local Mode(formerly known as Offline Desktop)

• VMware View - provisioning question of desktop computers

  I'm new to VMware View and just build a my QA cluster environment.  I have installed/configured view administrator on a dedicated virtual machine and installed/configured on my server vCenter composer.  I created a gold statue (called, joined the domain, configured custom parameters, view agent installed) and converted to a model. Then, I created a pool on my server administrator to view and added 10 desktop computers.  They have all implemented successfully, however, they all have the same computer name (same name, I named the machine of the gold statue).  The machines that appear in VMware show the naming convention that I created, but the internal computer name is the same for all. I guess that the DNS name.  also, I can have these machines added to the announcement through this process or do they need to be predefined?

  Customization = None seems to be the reason. When we customize him clone all the related machine settings are kept from the model VM, which are the name of the Machine, machine SID, the work/domain group settings, etc. That's why you see Office all the same names as those given to the model. You can create a customization specification in the CR. Instructions to create a file of customiztion specifications in vCenter can be found at:

  http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-4-esx-vcenter/index.jsp?topic=/com.vmware.vsphere.vmadmin.doc_41/vsp_vm_guide/deploy_vms_from_templates_and_clones/t_create_a_customization_specification_for_windows.html

  Use this technique of customization when you create the pool. Hope that helps.

• VMware View Enterprise 5 licenses

  Hi all

  I tried to search around the forum, but I have not found any answer...

  We plan to make a View 5 infrastructure with a host on which will run 40 MV and a vCenter server. This infrastructure will be used for a COMPUTER lab in a school and a few machines for teachers.

  We purchase these licenses:

  -1 x academic VMware View 5 Enterprise Bundle: Starter Kit (with x 1 basic support/subscription year)

  -3 x academic VMware View 5 Enterprise Bundle: package of 10 (with the Support/Basic membership x 1 yr)

  If I understand correctly, the VMware licensing is by Sockets, so if I buy a license, I can make a host that is equipped with a plug (and the number of cores). In this case, with the additional licenses for 40 VMS, would I think make a host with more than an outlet? In this case, Sockets how could I implement?

  Thanks in advance

  Cristian

  Hi Christian.

  There isn't "vSphere for desktop" included 40 desktop with these licenses.

  This means that you can run ESX hosts as much as you want and use all sockets in these hosts to your workstations.

  'vSphere for desktop PC' is equivalentto "vSphere Enterpris more ', but the difference is that you are allowed to run the operating systems of office and servers supported on hosts the necessary permits.

  The downside with the help of the 'Business' license, is that you will not be able to use linked clones, offline mode, etc.. For these features, you need the "Prime Minister" license.

• I can't install vmware view without a second server?

  I am really new to server management. When I tried to install VMware View Server connection I got an error. He said

  A controller of Active Directory (AD DC) domain to the "local" area could contacted could.

  Ensure that the domain name is typed correctly. If the name is correct, click details to correct that information.

  I also read somewhere that you can not install vmware view on the same Active Directory domain controller running server. Is it possible to install vmware view without going through a second server? If so, how?

  You may first have to install ESX/ESXi in your server.

  • After successful installation, connect to the respective client server using vShphere.
  • Try to create 3 virtual machines and install Microsoft 2 k 8 operating systems.
  • The first virtual machine, you can use it as Server Active directory micorsoft.
  • Then you can you use it to vCenter server.
  • Third one you can use for connection server vmware view.
  • You may need to create two more additional, as virtual machines VMware view comments and the other as a client of the view. You can either install windows XP/windows 7 for the VMS in the thesis.

  As already mentioned in messages, you can view VMware View Installation Guide for more details.

• The simplest configuration of vmware view?

  Good evening

  We have a small project with 5 desktop computers (= Users) and we think that it would be a good place to test VMware View.

  Unfortunately, it seems that we must implement the 4 servers to serve 5 customers:

  • See connection to the server
    
  • VMWare vCenter Server with View Composer
    
  • ESX Server
    
  • View transfer server
    

  What is the most simple and functional solution for VMware View with 5 users?

  The only software they use is a simple accounting tool that works very well with 100 k of memory...

  We hope that we can install a simple solution like this:

  HP (server) hardware with:

  • ESX Server with:
    
    • 1 x Windows 2008 R2 with Active Directory and the file server
      
    • 1 x Windows 2008 R2 with VMWare View to serve the 5 office users
      

  Unfortunately, there are no pre-sales VMware does support form / email (we hope that there is a customer support).

  Therefore, it would be great if someone can help us to answer this question.

  Thank you very much in advance,

  Kind regards

  Thomas

  I also wonder how this bake-off will go. I hope that the victories of view! In order to achieve this please take a good look at the documentation of the view. I also highly recommend that you take a look at the guide to optimize Windows 7 to see: http://www.vmware.com/files/pdf/VMware-View-OptimizationGuideWindows7-EN.pdf

  This will show you how to build a good image of Win 7 basis for review. Also note that it is strongly recommended that you build your base images starting from zero and NOT P2V them. You can quickly and easily build images for operating systems Windows using MDT 2010 update 1. This tool is free and is Microsoft. I strongly recommend that you take a look. In addition, many optimizations for Win7 and view are also good for use with Xen. Good luck.

• Microphone in VMWare View support

  Hello

  I'm busy with a proof of concept for VMWare view.  So far, everything was setup and works very well. I am using 4.6 and accommodation view my Win 7 x 64 virtual computer on a Vsphere environment with ESX 4.0 hosts.

  I can connect my virtual machine by using the view via a server client to have view. Once connected, sound works fine, I can open the mp3 or youtube and his works in general. Go to Device Manager I see there is a device called VMWare virtual audio (devtap) installed, even if the parameters of the virtual machine via virtual Center displays obviously no audio device.

  After starting to play with some of our applications, including Microsoft lync, I noticed that I can't make audio calls to other customers Lync, probably because there isn't any microphone support here. I tried to do the same thing from a computer with audio output thinclient / mic Jacks, but get the same result. Is there a kind of driver which allows for emulation of micro as is currently used for emulation of sound card to see?

  The virtual audio device supports only audio output. There are two routes you can go down:

  1. use the USB redirection with a USB headset feature and use your audio device for applications requiring audio in

  2. install the Audio driver virtual Teradici on your virtual machines, which is supported by Teradici rather than VMware: http://techsupport.teradici.com/ics/support/default.asp?deptID=15164&task=knowledge&questionID=421

• VMware view environment for the objective test

  Hello

  I test an application in vmware view environment. Set up a domain (two clients an Ant controller) and I try to install the clients and server of vmware view. Someoane can tell me where I can find a step by step installation guide?

  Thank you inadvance.

  You cannot install the vcenter on 1, 2 or 3. you need to find #4 =). It cannot be shared with any of the current role server. vCenter 4.1 required 64 bit windows 2008 r2.

  with VMware View, you create a virtual office. 1 Virtual Office = 1 session. and oh yes you will find # 5 which is the host ESX Server where you will be virtual office say windows7 or Windows XP.

• Questions about VMware View

  Hi, I need to provide always on desktops to remote 50 users. I have been using VMware workstation to provide these desktop computers, but it was a temporary solution that is quick and easy.

  I started by installing the free ESXi which works fine except that these virtual machines are running an application that requires DirectX. When reading information VMware views looks like it's maybe the solution I need, but I can't say if she can provide always on workstations or if desktop computers are provided according to the needs. My 2nd concern is cost. I don't mind spending the money for VMware View, but looks like I have to have seen running in AD and that it will require me to install many other products such as VMware infrastructure 3.5. Someone has some good links to install VMware View and the provisioning of desktops?

  When you purchase View 4.5, business or first, you get ESX and vSphere vCenter / I.  If you are supported on this part.  You don't need to buy that separately.

  With respect to reviews, the guides are:

  To start using the doc started get: http://pubs.vmware.com/view45/ol/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.htm#href=get_started/t_getstarted.html

  http://www.VMware.com/files/PDF/VMware-View45-evaluators-Guide.PDF -> is excellent for your POC on VMWare View.

  http://www.vmware.com/pdf/view45_installation_guide.pdf -> installation guide.

  You will need to have Active Directory in your environment.  View is used to automatically configure your desktop to your users.

  If you use clones of link or local mode (the ability to check your workstations), then you will need to Prime Minister, Enterprise edition will be beneficial.

  Hope this helps,

• vSphere Hypervisor w / VMware View

  Hello

  Is it possible to install VMware View on free ESXi installation? I have not installed ESXi yet because I'm still trying to understand what solution is better suited to my needs.

  I'm running it out of my basement and I'm not running an AD network but you can install it if necessary. I have about 40 developers to work wanting to virtual windows XP and windows 7 VPD (is that the correct term for virtual offices) for unrelated work software testing. I believe that the number of developers will double or triple possibly spreading by word of mouth in my office. I bought a new Beefy server to run these MeV on. My original plan was to use ESXI and remote desktop, but I read in VMware View and this sounds like it is made for what I'm trying to do, but I'm not even sure I can get seen working on the free esxi. My experience of VMware consists of VMWare Workstation, so this is a big step upwards. Because these virtual desktops must be always sure I know that view is even interesting to use for this. What do you guys suggest?

  Hey Warbuy,

  You don't need a vCenter Server and AD domain to see if technically free version came out. However, when the display is allowed, the license includes "vSphere for desktops", which includes hypervisor ESX\i and vCenter Server. Its vSphere actually Enterprise more you download providing you only run view components, servers, vCenter, offices etc. related connections. So contribution you will eventually purchase licenses you will be covered. On the otherhand, if you are going to only operate during the tests (60 days), you can obtain a license from vCenter server of the trial such as previously mentioned, this will be good also.

  Hope this helps?

• You are looking for advice or suggestions: Vmware View 4 lab on workstation 7.

  Hi guys,.

  I want to build a new laboratory virtualized on a new desktop that I ordered.  I especially want to us to do tests and the growth of knowledge on Vmware View.  I have a desktop HP on order with an i7-930 processor and 16 GB of RAM.  I also have a 7 of my cert VCP 4 Workstation license.

  I already know how build a virtualized ESX environment and allow the MV nested within this environment.  My lesson plans are to build two ESX 4 virtual machines, a VM vCenter, a virtual shared storage as a storage device and a server VMware View connection.   I think there should be enough resources on this box to have a work environment (although maybe slow).  I plan only to have two virtual desktops (XP).  I don't need virtual machines to do something more than it is, run and be able to communicate with them with PCoIP XP.

  I was hoping someone else might have already tried this and had no additional details.  If this isn't the case, I'd love to hear any suggestions.  I intend to document this lab and I'll be happy to share this document with everyone when I'm done...

  Best regards

  I have implemented this on a laptop several times. Laptops have 8 GB of memory and it was barely enough to make it usable. ; Your 16 GB of system memory and faster CPU will give you much more room to breathe

  Tip: I cut about 20% of the CPU usage on the ESX host nested running under Workstation 7 on Dell D830 computers laptops with processors T7250 in manually choosing the type of VT for ESX hosts nested rather than leave the setting at the default of Automatic.

  Also, if it is not necessary to VMotion, you could get a super-quick card Flash or SSD and point that flash all the temp, swap files and VSWP files. SSD. Someone has recently published an article on the difference in speed - Google and you will see what kind of speed increase you could get out your configuration if you are willing to spend that kind of money for quick storage.

• Testing VMware View 4.0 problems

  I test a trial version of VMware View 4 and needs help with some problems, that I manage to get the software to work.

  The problems are:

  -Use of vSphere 4.0 Client to manage the ESX, the feature 'Models and virtual computers' server is missing from the inventory menu.

  -After creating a Windows XP VM on the ESX Server, I am not able to create a model of the virtual machine.

  -Help the administrator view, there is no source of office, and I'm not able to create jobs, or add users or groups, even if I am connected to the server VirtualCenter and display server in the Configuration section.

  I have installed and configured the following:

  -ESX 4.0

  -VMware vCenter with View Composer on a Windows 2003 server,

  -Find out the connection to the server on another Windows 2003 Server

  -A Windows XP VM with the view on the ESX Server agent

  -client vSphere 4 on my PC

  The problems I encounter are similar to the following thread:

  http://communities.VMware.com/thread/255512

  the difference in my case is that I installed vCenter and view server connection?

  Any suggestion would be appreciated.

  It seems that you connect directly to the ESX Server and not to the vCenter.

  Sources of funds will be filled when you configured your pools correctly in the display manager.
