ESXi does not lend itself to modification of the .vmx file

Hello

I use an old distro from Suse Linux 32-bit on a 64-bit VM Workstation.  I modified the file vmx virtual machines with "monitor_control.disable_longmode = 1" in order to force the guest to detect as a 32-bit operating system or a 32-bit application that must run on the Suse installation used client starts correctly.

Everything works well, but I need to do the same thing on our ESXi server company but have encountered the following problems:

1. its possible, but not easy to modify the vmx without ssh or ftp access.  Am I missing something here?

2. our local IT guy hesitates to start hacking the configuration files unless it had to ensure that the other virtual machines, or entire server, be affected by the change

I would be grateful if someone could a) advise on the best way to edit files on a server ESXi and b .vmx) confirm that changing the vmx on usually file a VM guest interfere with anything else running on the host computer.

Thanks in advance,

RoryG

With the virtual machine you can add parameters through the VI client.

    Hello

    You mean that the new installation of operating system using Toshiba Recovery disk didn't?
    Hmmm, in this case, it seems like a RAM problem

    I searched a bit on the net about this error and found some info that might be linked to the faulty RAM memory.

    You should try to verify if a single one single module of RAM is affected.
    Otherwise you need to replace the two modules and then should try reinstalling the operating system.

  • I have a DELL E6400 which does not load itself. What are the steps with refill? Thank you Paul

    IPlug into the battery and you expect to charge the laptop that I use. However, when Iunplug the battery and try to power up to {as if it had taken a charge}, I have no power.

    Check that the battery is installed and connected properly. Some batteries use a locking mechanism, yours may not be properly connected.

    Check the Notification area of the Windows taskbar and click on the battery icon and look for message relating to the changing needs of your battery.

    Its likely the battery will need to be changed. How old is the laptop.

    What are your habits of load?

  • Firefox does not have what to do with the torrent files, it opens directly in bittorrent. How to switch this back when he asked what to do with the file?

    I need help

    You can check the setting for this MIME type in "tools > Options > Applications" and change the setting to 'always ask '.

    You may need to reset all the actions download by removing the file mimeTypes.rdf manually.

  • Firefox does not open in full screen on the task bar and I have to go over it to see the web page.

    Firefox does not open in full screen on the task bar and I have to go over it to see the web page.

    Firefox window is sometimes "off screen" somehow. Often, you can force it to appear on the screen by right clicking on the thumbnail image just above the taskbar and choose expand. Does it work?

    A possible cause for this is that the file that stores the positions and sizes of window is corrupt. You can delete this file and Firefox will return to standard window resizing.

    #1 method: If you can get a zoomed window:

    Open the settings folder (AKA Firefox profile) current Firefox help

    • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
    • (menu bar) Help > troubleshooting information
    • type or paste everything: in the address bar and press Enter

    In the first table of the page, click on the view file"" button. This should launch a new window that lists the various files and folders in Windows Explorer.

    Leave this window open, switch back to Firefox and output, either:

    • "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
    • (menu bar) File > Exit

    Pause while Firefox finishing its cleanup, then rename xulstore.json to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename this to localstore.old.

    Launch Firefox back up again. Windows normally appear again?

    #2 method: If you can not get a Firefox window for all:

    Close Firefox by right clicking the icon in the taskbar > close all windows.

    Using the Run dialog box (windows key + R) or the start search bar menu type or paste the following and press Enter to drill down to the profiles folder:

    %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
    

    Here you can see a folder - in this case, double-click that - or more than one case - in this case, double-click on in what looks like the most recently updated.

    Scroll down and rename xulstore.json to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename this to localstore.old.

    Launch Firefox back up again. Windows normally appear again?

    Then, to re - light bars, you can use one of the following methods to view the list of the toolbar, and then select the desired bars it:

    To activate the menu bar, toolbar bookmarks or other bars, click it in the list.

  • Single-pass does not work for Web sites after the last update of firefox

    Single-pass does not work for Web sites after the last update of firefox. This works in IE and Chrome and it works under windows (when starting the computer), but not with any website in Firefox.

    Firefox 30 spent some less commonly used "Always turned on" plugins "asking to activate. To check and change this to SimplePass, you can use the page modules. Either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click on Plugins. Then on the right, check the control on the right side of the SimplePass.

    You may need to exit Firefox and start it again before it takes effect.

    A little luck?

  • On another PC I want to save my favorites, but my browser Firefox does not work how can I make the backup, before I reinstall Firefox

    On another PC I want to save my favorites, but my browser Firefox does not work how can I make the backup, before I reinstall Firefox.
    Firefox cannot renew its tabs and now won't run and let me do a backup

    This may be considered to be solve my problem.
    I decided to uninstall the rogue program Firefox download and reinstall the same version (No. 8). I used Windows XP Add Remove programs who asked if I wanted to save the settings of Firefox until I uninstalled Firefox. I said yes and operated with the uninstall. I couldn't find a Firefox 8 so I went for the 12 version and installed on the laptop. This version 12 now works with all the passwords one favorite of the uninstalled 8.

  • Firefox prompts to save passwords of websites. The key to the Password Manager icon appears on the left side of the address bar, but the corresponding window asking if I want to save the password or not, does not appear. I tried all the possible solutions

    I installed the latest version of Firefox on my laptop (Windows 7 Professional 64-bit). The thing is that firefox prompt to save passwords of websites. I'll explain you a little more away with an example: suppose I load www.gmail.com. When I login, the password manager key is displayed on the left side of the address bar, but the corresponding window which would ask if I want to save the password or not, does not appear. I tried all the possible solutions. It is true that when I restart firefox with disabled modules (safe mode), password manager works fine. But I don't really use Add-ons that could prevent firefox to save passwords. I disabled all add-ons and ran firefox in normal mode, but the password manager does not work yet. Please keep in mind that I tried everything and that any post not published so far describes a similar problem to mine case. Consider that I have the same I have configured the entire system from the beginning. The problem appeared again from the first time I launched firefox. At that time, I had not installed any antivirus software and there is no add-on with firefox. Hope someone can give me a valid solution...

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).

    It is possible that there is a problem with key3db and signons.sqlite files that store the encrypted names and passwords in Firefox.

    Rename signons3.txt and signons.sqlite files in the Firefox profile folder.

    You can add .old files (key3.db.old and signons.sqlite.old) names or move them to another folder to make it possible to cancel the action.

    You must define a new master password after renaming or removing the signons3.txt and all the currently saved passwords are lost.

    If that worked, then you can delete the renamed files that are no longer needed.
