ESXi4.1 - the host is not supported VT - i7 720Q

Hello and thank you for taking the time to read my question.

This is a test environment, proof of concept, etc. We have an i7 720Q which is a hyperthreading processor. ESXi is installed in VMWare Workstation. ESXi processor is defined on Intel VT - x. I can't create 64-bit with vsphere hosts. I get the message "this virtual machine is configured for 64-bit operating systems. However, the 64-bit mode is not possible. This host does not VT support"I can run the 64-bit very well within VMWare Workstation operating system, just not in ESXi in workstation.

Ideas?

Thank you

Chase

VT is a hardware device that is not passed through a virtual machine. Therefore, it is not possible to run the OS 64 - bit guest nested within your VM ESXi.

  • Cannot migrate VM between 5.5 ESXi versions: the version of the product to the destination host does not support one or several CPU features

    We receive an error message that I am trying to make sense. I understand very well the notion of compatibility, CPU, CPUID, masking and so on, after working on a competitor hypervisor. However, this error seems wrong (or needs better wording) based on my understanding:

    Here is the message:

    ----

    A general error occurred: the version of the product to the destination host does not support one or several features of the CPU currently use by the virtual machine.

    Characteristics of CPUID level 0 x 1 'ecx' register are indicated with a '1' bit: x00x:xxx0:xx0x:x 000: x 0 11xx:00: 00xx:11xx

    ----


    This happened during the migration between two hosts ESXi with the same physical processors - in this case, a Westmere X 5650.


    The source host is on ESXi build 2068190 (5.5). The destination host is on ESXi build 1474528.


    The bits it seems to complain are:


    DTES64

    Monitor/MWait

    Cx16

    PDCM

    The punch line seems to be: "the product version of the destination host. However, I have trouble believing that support for these features have been added to ESXi between the two versions. If it were, VMware has been certainly silent about.

    For what it's worth, explicitly set us the CPUID masks in our virtual machines (no, CVS is not an option for us at this time.) This is the mask:

    CPUID.1.EAX = "00000000000000100000011001010001".

    CPUID.1.ECX = "00000010100110001110001000111111".

    CPUID.1.EDX = "10001111111010111111101111111111".

    CPUID.80000001.ECX = "00000000000000000000000000000001.

    CPUID.80000001.EDX = "00101000000100000000100000000000".

    cpuid.d.EAX = "00000000000000000000000000000000".

    cpuid.d.ECX = "00000000000000000000000000000000".

    cpuid.d.EDX = "00000000000000000000000000000000".

    Note that the bits of the message complains (2, 3, 14, 15) * are * in fact forced to '1' in our mask of cpuid.1.ecx. That means (if I understand correctly), ESXi does not have the virtual machine unless the host processor supports the feature. And in our case, the virtual machine will start with happiness on nodes, with both versions. It will be not simply migrate between them.

    So, long story short, is this a bug of ESXi? The error message is misleading? I understand something?

    Thank you


    Matt

    To use the masks feature VM in this way, you must replace all the 1 to your masks with-'s:

    CPUID.1.EAX = "00000000000000-000000 - 00-0 - 000-

    CPUID.1.ECX = "000000-0-00--000---000-000---".

    CPUID.1.EDX = '-000 - 0-0 - 0-

    CPUID.80000001.ECX = "0000000000000000000000000000000 -"

    CPUID.80000001.EDX = "00-0-000000-00000000-00000000000.

    cpuid.d.EAX = "00000000000000000000000000000000".

    cpuid.d.ECX = "00000000000000000000000000000000".

    cpuid.d.EDX = "00000000000000000000000000000000".

    Zeros erases the features that are not available on your hosts Westmere, and dashes will leave the other one features.  The problem with those masks was forced to you certain features on who would have normally been off.

  • Linked clone failed: the operation is not supported on the object

    Hi all - I would appreciate help on a related clone operation that is a failure.

    I use Quest vWorkspace to create linked clone VM in my environment.  It integrates with virtual Center and creates from a VM snapshot parent according to normal related clones.  It has just stopped working and I am trying to track down the cause.  The task fails with the error message in the console of VMware vCenter: the operation is not supported on the object.

    The vCentre is 5.5 and esxi.  vWorkspace is v8.0 MR1.  The parent VM is located on an iSCSI datastore.  I tried to put the clones of destination on premises and warehouses of NFS data with the same result.  Unfortunately I can't (don't want really to) move the VM parent from the data store that I have of many VM related to this virtual machine.

    The failure message is a bit generic, so I looked on through the vmkernel.log and vpxa.log and it is an excerpt from the vpxa.log whereby it shows failed task 153.  Can someone please indicate something in the newspaper that had to be examined or another newspaper to look at?

    vWorkspace attached error and below:

    Linked clone has not CreateLinkedClone_Task of CloneVmLinked failed!

    Additional accessories:

    Hello guys,.

    For those of you already on 5.5, I did a few tests these days. I did find a magic bullet yet as a single parameter that is sure to break but I came up with a workaround.

    I found that if my ESXi server was still on the 5.1, vWorkspace could deploy clones linked via vCenter 5.5 - it's only when the ESXi is also on 5.5 that you have a problem.

    If any of you have ESXi hosts still on 5.1, you can deploy there for now.

    In ESXi 5.x, it is easy to have an ESXi virtual machine. You might want to consider creating some virtual boxes ESXi to deploy on while the vworkspace dev team look at why it does not work.

    I know that this is not the best solution in the world, but it's better than no work around

    Thank you, Andrew.

  • The host agent GBA support

    What version of ACS that supported for the host agent (for example IP phone, printer, etc.)?

    I have GBA v3.1, it is supported?

    Is there a solution to authenticate devices by MAC address?

    Thank you

    AW

    Configuring the host agent is supported in 4.2 and ACS version 4.0,4.1. Many guests who authenticates the ACS are running the agent software that requests access to network resources and receives approval from the ACS. However, some hosts are not the agent software running. ACS solves this problem by using the MAC address of the host device to identify and authenticate the host. This technique is called the authentication MAC (MAB) workaround.

  • Reviews operations - the operation is not supported

    Hello

    I use vmware.vim api in a c# project. When I try to get the GuestAuthentication with AcquireCredentialIsGuest object, I get the following error:

    "A NotSupported server of type error with the message"the operation is not supported on the object."occurred during the requested operation operation."

    Orders are not disabled, virtualmachine, or on the host. I'm running out of ideas what could be wrong. Can someone help me?

    Code:

    GuestOperationsManager t (GuestOperationsManager) = customer. GetView (customer. ServiceContent.GuestOperationsManager, null);

    GuestAuthManager c = customer (GuestAuthManager). GetView (t.AuthManager, null);

    NamePasswordAuthentication userCred = new NamePasswordAuthentication();

    userCred.Username = "xxxx";
    userCred.Password = "xxxx";
    userCred.InteractiveSession = false;

    GuestAuthentication a = c.AcquireCredentialsInGuest (vm. MoRef, userCred, null);

    Thank you!

    Hi Méteron,

    If I understand correctly it train physicians AuthManager.AcquireCredentialsInGuest we are not allowed to use NamePasswordAuthentication with this method. Instead try to pass an instance of NamePasswordAuthentication directly to the method that requires authentication and do not GuestAuthManager at all.

    Hope this helps :-)

    Thank you

    It sounds like this host has already been improved 3.x! In this case you will not be able to upgrade to 5.x using the Manager to update because of the small partition/boot (99 MB).

    to remedy the hosts against a basic upgrade

    ... You cannot use Update Manager to upgrade to 5.0 ESXi host, if the host has upgraded ESX 3.x to ESX 4.x. These hosts have not enough free space in the partition/Boot to support the process of update Update Manager. Use either interactive or scripted upgrade.

  • ESXi 4.1 - Dell Poweredge 2850 - tape backup - host does not support configuring passthrough

    I'm trying to get a tape backup to work on my ESXi host, so I can save my win2003 VM.  I get this error under VMDirectPath, 'host does not support configuring passthrough ".  Under Configuration > storage adapters > I don't see my tape drive listed.  Also, I noticed that my SCSI controller card is NOT on the HCL (Adaptec 39160).  See.  This is probably why passthrough doesn't work.

    So, I was thinking of buying this one (Adaptec 39320) because he seems to be on the list.  This will solve my problem or is this server too old for passthrough to work?

    To use VMDirectpath on an Intel Server chipset used must support Intel VT - d (Directed i/o).   I don't think that's the case with the models of 2850, but if it was you would see an option in the BIOS to enable this.  It is a separate option of VT - x, which allows the host run the 64-bit clients.
