Get-vmhost and vmware server 2

Hello

I like to use the PowerGUI and VI Toolkit for vmware server 2. I can connect to the server, but where to get the information:

C:\Program Files\VMware\Infrastructure\VIToolkitForWindows & gt; Get-VMHost

Get-VMHost: specified Argument was out of the range of valid values.

Parameter name: I

On line: 1 char: 10

VMware Server 2 is not in the list of platforms supported the VITK 1.5 Release Notes.

Perhaps one of the VMware guys can develop on what can be done with the VITK and VMware Server 2?

  • VI Client and VMware Server 2

    Can someone explain the relationship between the client native windows VI and VMware Server 2?  At the present time, I am not able to login to VMware Server 2 product outside the Web access.   Agent VI does not provide any real comments on why it cannot establish a connection.  Usig VMware Server 1.X console I can generate an error of "" 501 overall GLOBAL server agent nonhost command targets not supported.

  • Software and Vmware Server 2.0.2


    Hello

    In our project, we still have a legacy VMware Server 2.0.2 and I would like to know how it is affected (if any) by software. Y at - there a patch available? or any workaround that I have to ask?

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hello

    VMware server 2 is end of live for 2011...

    So, no official patch vmware will be available.

    Maybe if you search the web, you'll find something.

    You should take in mind for migrating from vmware server to another vmware product.

    In any case, if your vmware server is not directly connected to the INTERNET, the risk should not be so high.

    Best regards

  • Allocation of memory and VMware Server 2

    Hello world

    I have a box of material with 12 GB of physical memory on this OS W2K 2003 32 bits (4 GB limit). My question is: if I install VMware Server 2 in this scenario, I'll be able to allocate remaining 8 GB of physical mem for my virtual machines. What performance in this scenrio? I'd like to run two virtual machines (2003 data backup server and backup exchange server) 4 GB each.

    Thank you much for the help.

    NO.

    Since your host is limited to 4 GB, you cannot allocate more than that.

    You should better install a 64 bit OS host if you want to use all of the memory, if your hardware supports.

    Gerry,

    Looks like you have one of two problems:

    1. The VMware Server service does not work. You can check this by opening Windows Services console (start > run > services.msc) and find names of service starting with "VMware".... »

    2. Your hostname cannot solve on your local machine. Try going to https://localhost:8333 / ui /

  • Question of VMWare Server 2.0

    I just had a peek at the FAQ for VITK check the platforms supported in the VM (this referred to in 1.0, but I guess it's the same as 1.5).

  • Impossible to use VMWare Server and Virtual PC at the same time?

    I have a Win 7 box I use VirtualPC (unfortunately, VPN to the employer only supports the 32-bit Win XP).

    If I try to start any virtual machines using VMWare Server, power on and then immediately off.  Tried several different VMs.

    However, if I disable VirtualPC, they all work normally.

    Then... there at - it a known issue with the help of Virtual PC and VMWare Server at the same time?

    BTW, I didn't see this problem when you use Virtual PC and VMWare Player at the same time.

    VirtualPC leaves the CPU of the exploitation of VMX root, which is a restricted mode.  VMware Server is problems to switch between legacy mode and long (this switch is prohibited when the CPU is in VMX root operation).  The current versions of the workstation and the player are able to circumvent this restriction.

  • VMware Server and T-Mobile Huwaei BroadBand Stick

    Hi all

    I came across this post in discussions of woskstation and its exactly the same question that I see:

    http://communities.VMware.com/message/1509413

    The problem is that I can't turn off the VMware USB Service on my host machine, because there is no. Anyone of you experts can tell me how to disable this in VMware Server please?

    Or do you want to know what part of VMware Server may be in conflict with my stick to wide band and advise me on how I can have as much mobile broadband and vmware server running on the same host machine.

    Thanks in advance

    the installation of fixing VMserver USB part is not trivial - see

    who wrote for my computer, but it applies as well to VMserver.

    Have you tried to re - install?

  • Installation of VMware workstation in a machine with vmware server 2.0 is already installed?

    is it possible to install the latest version of vmware workstation (I guess that's 6.5) in a machine where vmware server 2.0 is already installed? where possible there at - it something I should know before installing vmware workstation (eg. problems known, network suspends etc.)? in particual I am a little concerned network mangement (eg. both vmware server and vmware workstation in fact add virtaul adapters: is a possible trouble caouse?). The host of the virtual machine is vista ultimate x 64 with 8gig of ram and a quad core cpu.

    I did a little research, and from what I understand, this was not possible with vmware server 1.0 x.. as the situation has changed with vmware server 2.0?

    (in case you are wondering why I sholud be willing to do):

    I worked with vm ware Server 2.0 for about a year, but now I miss some of the features that are only present in vmware workstation: multiple snapshot and clone VM vm ware server... However is much more flexible when you don't have physical access to your VM host... so I was wondering if it is possible to get the best of both worlds : I would like to use vm ware workstation allows you to configure virtual machines and manage snapshots and vmware server to remotely manage virtual machines, I've created with workstation. Is it not possible?

    Thanks in advance for your attention

  • Move a VM from VMWare Workstation 7 to VMWare Server 2

    Hi all:

    I had to create a virtual machine in VMware Workstation 7 manually prepare and now I need to move it to VMWare Server 2, which is used to run automated tests. It is our usual working process.

    I would like to know if there is a problem with it, because the process of setting up the machine took several hours, install programs, and to configure, you know.

    Should I edit the .vmx file? I copied the machine using scp, since the destination that VMware Server is installed on a remote computer; I can access which the machine in ssh and web.

    Thanks in advance for your attention and your time and best regards,

    Luis

    If the virtual machine was powered (non-suspended) offshore before moving them to the destination, you should be able to turn on without problems. Both VMware Workstation 7.x and VMware Server 2.x can use hardware virtual version 7 (http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1003746), which is probably the most important thing.

    If you don't know, create a snapshot before you turn on the virtual machine to the remote site, in this way that the virtual disks have changed.

    If the copied virtual machine snapshots, you will not be able to come back to them on the new hardware if they were taken while the virtual machine is running.

  • Migration of VMware Server 2-&gt; ESXi

    I agree that it is probably a FAQ - if it is, a big boost for the right page would be very helpful and appreciated. My google-fu is weak today.

    (At this time), I have a server to use for virtualization. He is currently running Win2k3 x 64 and VMware Server 2.0.

    After checking the assorted HCLs, I came to the realization that this thing will probably be ESXi which, as far as I know, will that make life easier and provide more resources to my VM customers. But before you start, I need clarification on a single piece: my clients VMware Server 2 must be migrated in some way?

    I can quite easily copy their directories on a Windows file server before the upgrade.

    After the upgrade, if:

    1. I can copy them on the ESXi Server? "Speak" windows network? Or do I I intend using a USB stick or something similar

    2. How to migrate or convert the VMware Server 2 offline customers to ESXi 3?

    Are there some best practices guides that would help?

    Kind regards

    Chris

    Yes. But with a limitation - ESX (i) does not support IDE HDDS in VM.

  • I need help with this error on VMware Server 2

    Hello world!  I'm new to using this site, but not to a large part by using VMware, VMware Server software. I have worked with it for 1.0.5 version. I have a Dell 2950 PowerEdge Server with Red Hat 5.2 and VMware Server 2. I installed 3 virtual machines and I made a backup of any of it. I copied this entire virtual machine to another computer (Dell Optiplex 755) with the same Red Hat 5.2 and VMware Server 2 and I added the virtual machine properly in the inventory of machines with VMWare Server 2 recognized the very fast machine. But when I press Play to start the virtual machine I got the error that appears on the image and I don't know what can be the problem.

    Can someone help me please?

    Thank you very much!

    William Anderson

    It looks like may have copied the files when the virtual machine is not correctly - stop search *.lck files/folders in the destination folder and delete them. Also, make sure that the account running the VMware process has permissions to write to the files/folders.
