For Vmware Infrastructure details DropDown is EMPTY

I'm a newbie in the converter and I'm doing a P2V using Converter 5.0 running on a Windows 7 computer where I am using VMware Workstation 7.  The source is a physical machine running Ubuntu 11.10.

I spent an initial problem regarding root privileges using sudo in config xml files the agent and the worker.  When I get to the next screen, I expect to be able to use the drop-down list to select VMware Workstation Vmware infrastructure (see screenshot).  The problem is that there are NO options to choose from.  When I click on the drop down arrow, nothing happens.

I did research in the community and on Google but could not find something to help.

Everyone knows this?  Can you please help?  Thank you.

  • Update 3 for vmware Infrastructure 3 is a comprehensive update?

    Is update 3 for vmware Infrastructure 3, a comprehensive update or should I install the update 1 and day 2 first?

    I believe that if you apply the update 3 with the Update Manager and then rescan with your baseline, you will see fewer missing updates.  It should take care of all update 1 and day 2 patches.  If you want to apply update 3 make sure to run all of the patches that have been released since then as well, there are a few recent bugfixes of update 3.

    If all goes well with this number of hosts you can eliminate the time instead of reduce, if you have the DRS in fully automatic mode when you use the Manager to update to migrate the guests off the coast to other hosts for you while patch.

  • Which TCP port is used for VMWare Infrastructure Client?

    Hello, my ESXi server sits on the private network, and I'm trying to PAT so that I can access the external network using VMWare Infrastructure Client Server. Does anyone know what port is VMWare Infrastructure Client listen? Thank you.

    Priscilla

    Do the external network for VMware NAT

    I guess you mean that your server is located in the internal network and Client is on the outside.

    If the customer does not have to "listen" for connections it opens TCP ports - HI 1024-65535 to servers as follows.

    Servers (including GSX) TCP ports: 8222, 8333, 902

    If you have ESX (i) then TCP ports: 80, 443, 902

  • Local host for VMware Infrastructure Client permissions

    We normally use vcenter 2.5 and ESX 3.5. Our user permissions are set on vcenter, using Active Directory.

    However when vcenter is out of service, we can connect locally to each esx host using the VMware Infrastructure client. Logging as root works very well. However, we have several local nonroot accounts defined on the ESX host.

    How can we give users permission to open a session? We want to be administrators on the graphical interface, but does not give the root password.

    As root, you will need to identify yourself with the VI Client and assign permissions to non-root users to access environment - but caution that you do not have the granularity of permissions, as you do with VC and if these hosts are managed by CR you do not want to make changes to them directly as this may affest DRS and HA-

  • using the converter no option for "Type of Destination." I am allowed only 'VMware Infrastructure virtual machine'

    Hi, I am looking to convert my localhost Ubuntu 9.10 for a machine virtual (vmdk) using vCenter Converter Standalone Client 4.0.1.

    I am at the step #2 (specify the Destination) and I expect to converter to allow me to choose a path to store the hard files.  However, 'Destination Type' does not have any selection - only 'VMWare Infrastructure virtual machine' is available.  (also there is input to the server, username, and password fields)

    What I am doing wrong?

    Thank you

    Hello

    using vmware converter 4.01 when virtual do physical power machines Linux the only available destination is ESX (i) server.

    One possible way to solve this handicap can be what makes an image of the Linux system using one of support for the products of the image and then use the vmware converter to set up the image of Linux box as a source and destination that it doesn't have to be a server ESX (i)

    If it comes to an eventual conversion, you can use a trial license with the product of the image (e.g. acronis true image or norton ghost).

    Best wishes / Saludos.

  • VMware infrastructure documentation format

    Hi my implementation team recently made implementation of vmware infrastructure 3 and 4 for me. It is now time for the time of transfer and transition knowledge for my in-house team. so can someone please give me a format or a point on which we can take as a transfer of our implementation team. KT base Administration already has been made.

    Hello

    Most, if not all of these types of documents are under NDA, so we can share them unfortunately.

    The content coverage of the entire infrastructure will include details about the construction, the material provision, sites Web HCL, how hosts are configured, which served to test, etc.. Its a kind things coconut soup. Maybe explain why a choice has been made.

  • Sizing of VMware Infrastructure

    If you are going to build a VMware infrastructure, consider yourself the hyperthreading the processor function in order to have several virtual machines per server.

    Example:

    carrots 2 x 10 = 20 hearts (Physics)

    40 carrots (with hyperthreaading)

    I guess that 75% will be used for virtual machines and 1 vCPU per VM

    1-15 virtual machines for physics

    2 30 VMs with hyperthreading

    which is the best architecture, based on the physical cores or it is safe to use the feature hyperthreading for VM deployment.

    Finally, if I use the physical cores, is it safe I guess 1 physical core = 4 vCPU?

    Thank you!

    You must not consider hyper-threading, you still share the physical heart.  Here is a good article about the sizing and hyper-threading Gotcha Hyper-Threading with Machine vCPU virtual sizing - Wahl network

    It's safe I guess 1 physical core = 4 vCPU?

    You should never assume anything in a design unless support can be posted in the event of oversubscription, you must confirm that your workload won't suffer degradation performance if the CPU use increases.  You really need to understand the workload and usage patterns.

  • VMware Infrastructure Client hanging

    Hi guys,.

    IM new to the world of VMware sorry, I have a server ESX 3.5.0 Build 82663 on a Dell Poweredge 2950 Server VMware Infrastructure Client 2.5.0 build 84767 on a Dell Insperon running Windows 7 workstation, the question I have is that the VIC has recently started to hang when I try to shoot to the top of the list of the VM on the ESX Server machines. The only way I found to fix it is to reboot physically the ESX Server and then I can reconnect the VIC and get the list and start all the VM images on it, but sometimes it will freeze just when starting a picture and if I click on the power on option, once again, I get a message indicating that you cannot start a power on operation when it is being , and then I'm back to square one where the VIC is frozen again.

    Is it possible to restart the game VIC in the ESX box without having to restart the ESX Server?

    Thanks in advance

    Werner

    How much memory you have configured for the service console? Perhaps, if this isn't there, set up to 800MB.  In addition, confirmed the same behavior by launching the VIC from another post of work?

  • Fatal error VMware Infrastructure Client

    Hello.

    I use vSphere Client (version 4.1.0 build 258902) and vCenter Server (version 4.0.0 build 208111) with an IBM BladeCenter.  I am trying to download files on a satastore, but just as he begins to transfer I get this error and closes the client:

    VMware Infrastructure Client fatal error: (app-4048) <-this number changes every time, it's never the same

    Exception 0 x 80000003 (debug break point) has occurred.

    A core file is available in "C:\users\Dave\AppData\Roaming\VMware\vpxclient-3784.dmp".  Please

    ask for support and include the content of the core file.

    To collect the data to submit to the VMware support, run 'vm-support.

    We will respond on the basis of your entitlement to support.

    I get this error, regardless of the OS (tried Windows XP and 7), logged-in user or data store used (we have about 8).  Fails also on local storage for the blade so it can not be anything to do with the fiber storage attached.

    Anyone hit this problem before and have a solution?

    Thank you very much

    Dave

    If you use vCenter 4.0 I advise to use the same version for vSphere client because there has been some problems with the customer for 4.1 when used with mixed versions of ESX

  • Alternative to VMware Infrastructure Web Access?

    I had absolutely horrible experience, try using the VMware Infrastructure Web Access site to manage my VMware Server 2 (2.0.0 - 2.0.2), but I spare you the rant about the problems.  In short, I expect more distributed as alpha software.

    Is there another program of VMware or someone else who will allow me to manage VMware Server and access the console of the virtual machine.  I liked the product for Server 1.x, but unfortunately, they removed support.

    Yes, he must be the customer of ESX3.5.  Specifically Virtual Infrastructure Client 2.5.  I do not know which build ESX3.5 I got the customer, but it was there are a few updates.  So, you might try the extraction of the ESX3.5u1 or u2, if the current version of u5 does not work.

    A major limitation with the VIClient is that it cannot completely handle material type 7 VMs.  (e.g.: Server2.)  You can start the virtual and other computers, but cannot change the settings of the virtual machine.  If the virtual machines are the older type 4 (e.g.: Server1) then you can make full use of the VIClient for everything.  However, the type 4 does not support USB2.  You don't have to have all your virtual machines as type 4.  My server has a mixture of types, but I have to remember which are of type 7 and use the web interface to modify the virtual machine settings.  But apart from that, I use the VIClient to display the console for all virtual machines.

    If you can live with the older hardware type, the VIClient is absolutely the best way to manage the Server2.

  • Converter do P2V for VMware Server 1.0 x?

    Hello, when trying to convert a physical Machine in VMware Server 1.0.x (correct 1.0.x, not 2.x, what's next) - is - it possible with "VMware vCenter Converter Standalone 4.0.1?

    Whenever he tries to convert a physical computer running Linux (Debian), it does not allow a change in the type of destination (it is assumed that 'Server VMware Infrastructure' and does not have a drop-down menu to change the type of destination).

    Should an older version be used?  It is available for download?

    Any guidance would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance

    Looks like this guest OS are not supported on vmware Server 1.0 x...

    What is comments that you want to convert... Let me know... see if I can get any device to down load and tet my lab...

    I don't use these any OS... Screen shot I gave you is windows...
