• Avoid checking "the guest operating system has locked the door of CD-ROM. disconnect anyway and replace the lock?

  Using PowerCLI, I'm trying to create a script that logs off the CD player and affects the client machine and Passthrough IDE using the command:

• T of what guest operating systems will start the VMware Support for EFI?

  Is there a list of support guest OS for the EFI firmware?  Mianly supported by VMware - do not try, fail, call support technique etc etc.   My experiences on the TP forums, I guess that there is not.  Some OS (such as Windows Server) come with a screen to choose BIOS/EFI firmware.  If not, you need to go to setting > Hard Drive OPtions-> advanced _ > boot using EFI.  In particular there at - it versions of Linux that you give you option of BIOS/EFI firmware before the confutation of VM is complete, so the hard drive then be custom.

  We will officially support the EFI firmware for any guest operating system to which all the following conditions are met:

  • We list this guest operating system, supported in the VMware Compatibility Guide for operating systems and your virtualization product.
  • The guest operating system supports EFI in the operating system installation media.
  • Support the guest OS EFI has no catastrophic flaws (for example Fedora 12 x 64, FreeBSD 11, Centos 6.0 through all the 6.2 have catastrophic flaws).

  New computer virtual assistant of 11 workstation has only the option of EFI firmware for Windows clients.  Special mention, do not yet support us Easy Install for non EFI customers in 11 workstations.  For all other customer support EFI OSes, you can do a manual installation after choosing the EFI firmware in the virtual machine settings > Options > Advanced > Boot with EFI instead of the BIOS.

  I don't understand your concern about the personalization of the hard drive... Could you elaborate?

  See you soon,.

• computer host cannot use the internet but the guest operating system can

  Hello, I am using vmware workstation 10 and have implemented a windows virtual xp (I am running windows 7). I chose bridged to my connection and internet mode works very well within the xp, but when you try to use the internet on my host computer it does not work. He said that I have no internet access but if it works on my virtual machine, then what's wrong?

  BTW I have configured in bridge to my wireless adapter if it makes a difference. also cannot use nat or host

  any help would be appreciated

  Thank you

  Then maybe it's a problem with your WiFi router no longer allowing a connection when using bridged and if it is it is not a question of VMware itself.   What brand and model of router?

• Cannot run the program in the guest operating system

  Hello

  I'm trying to run a program file (an .exe) in a virtual machine via vCO using executeCommandInGuest.

  The thing is that the .exe file starts a user interface to display the status (do not ask for entry) when it runs locally. When I call the script of vCO, I get the following error:

  Error while executing command (can not run the command: InternalError: a general error occurred: a program could not run on the guest operating system (name of the dynamic Script Module: executeCommandInGuest #40) (name of the dynamic Script Module: executeCommandInGuest #46))

  
  

  If I try to call a .bat file in the VM that starts the program of the WF works but the .exe file is never started in the virtual machine.

  If I specify to run another .exe for example ping.exe only complete control of WF and if I specify a .bat file that call ping.exe he also successfully complete.

  There is no silent mode for the .exe I need performed.
  

  Any help would be appreciated.
  

  Thank you

  Magnus

  The problem was caused by the user access control. Put forever does not resolve the problem, disable it through the user interface, restart the virtual machine, and then continue with my script.

• VMWARE Newbie - installation problems with the guest operating system

  I heard a lot about the use of VMWARE for a long time so I downloaded and then installed ESXI 3.5 on a test area.  I installed the client and have been able to create a new virtual machine.  However, I run into some difficulty with installing a guest operating system.  All the pdf that I could find have suggested that simply by putting a CD in the server's drive and then turn on the virtual machine would start the my guest operating system installation process.  Unfortunately, my VM doesn't seem to see my CDRom and tent drive a start-up network, followed by a brief wait for the message 'Operating system not found' timeout.

  Can someone please help me find a way to create a new guest OS on my VM so that I can.

  1. understand the process

  2 start testing.

  Thank you in advance.

  If you have installed of course the VI Client to create the VM, and you insert the CD into the ESXi host? You can go to change settings on the virtual machine, click the CD/DVD and select the option use the host device. Also ensure the connection to turn on is checked.  When you turn on the virtual machine, it should see the CD that you inserted in your ESXi host. Once you get the operating system to load, you can configure to allow remote desktop connections and access the VM as a traditional physical machine, rather than relying on the console of the VI Client view.

• Guest operating system (FreeBSD 8.2) restarts randomly

  I'm under Fusion 4.1.1 on a MacBook Pro.  I'm running FreeBSD 8.2 (i386) in a virtual machine.  It looks good for a few hours and then the virtual machine will restart just randomly.  I was running on Fusion 3.x, but just updated in the hope that he could solve this problem.  But, that just after the installation again.  Any ideas?

  I allocated 2 carrots and 3 GB of RAM to the virtual machine.

  Model name: MacBook Pro
  Model identifier: MacBookPro8, 2
  Processor name: Intel Core i7
  CPU speed: 2 GHz
  Number of processors: 1
  Total number of Cores: 4
  (By heart) L2 cache: 256 KB
  L3 Cache: 6 MB
  Memory: 8 GB
  Boot ROM version: MBP81.0047.B24
  Version of the SCM (System): 1.69f3

  Hi DanDaley,

  Here is a possible culprit: FreeBSD seems to have problems with our virtual CD/DVD drive IDE... guest tent to manage an IDE answer twice, causing the kernel crash comments and the OS to restart guest.  Even with no disk in the drive, the guest operating system will probe the disc every few seconds, which is enough to trigger the panic from time to time.

  Try to remove the CD/DVD of the configuration of the VM player and see if that resolves the panic.  This other thread processes the same question and its resolution.

  See you soon,.

• The VM startup slow down, delay long before the guest operating system begins startup

  Evaluation of VMWare to set up the VM for the maintenance of the software. Set up a virtual machine, install Windows 7 SP1 32-bit, everything works well. Once started, the performance is excellent.

  The symptom is that when you start the virtual machine, either starting from cold boot or suspend, there is a significant delay before the power of VMware on / start screen is displayed. Once it appears, the operating system starts starting (or the recovery of wakefulness) quickly and performance is normal after that. During the start-up period, the whole system is insensitive, host and guest operating system.

  See the extract of newspaper below to 09:54:28.619 moment where the delay occurs followed by the entry concerning 09:55:11.625 time when start continues, a delay of 43 seconds during which nothing seems to happen and the system does not respond. After that, everything is fast.

  Any ideas or suggestions?

  Hello

  I know what you want to say as I've seen sometimes as well. But especially on older hardware or if there are problems with regard to particular resources. For example I saw this on an ESX host (yes I know product different) where there was a problem with the storage not enough providing IOPS / s.

  I saw also this on older versions of Linux (IIRC 7) workstation where the host had an Atom based CPU, there I updated to more RAM and a more recent version of the workstation and the problem disappeared.

  Then I also saw it on the 4/5 merger when my host operating system was out of memory and I tried to start another operating system to prompt anyway.

  I do not consider a normal behavior for the slow start and does not respond, it is an indication that the hypervisor is seeking some resources, but does not receive them fast enough.

  The reasons can be many. Indeed things like antivirus could be biting you if she tries to analyze all files (including virtual disks) at their opening.

  FWIW, I also understand the support response as would be expected if your host is a bit thin on the resources (for example, trying to start a VM 1 GB on a host Win7 with only 3.5 GB of RAM) and if the virtual machine runs OK after the initial startup delay, it's mostly just an annoyance.

• VMPlayer newbie - switch back and forth between the host and the guest operating system

  I am newbie to VMPlayer. I just installed VMPlayer 3.0.0 build-203739 on Red Hat Linux 5 (host). Then I created a VM comments Kubuntu (8.10). So far so good. In the VMPlayer window, I selected 'play Virtual Machine '. After this, the host operating system controls disappeared and I could see a taskbar on the top of my screen and I could also see Kubuntu startup (in an area of the small window in the center of the screen). The problem I'm running is that I'm not able to navigate outside of this area of the small window. I'm not even able to click/Select the taskbar of VMPlayer top of the screen. The mouse movement is limited to the area of the small window. How to and fro my host and the guest operating system? Is there a key combination? I finally had to stop my VM guest to return to the control of my host system. I guess it's a problem quite newbie that I am running. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Hello, welcome to the forum

  Host Windows to switch between comments and the OS (when you are in the guest operating system), you must use ctrl + alt.

  According to this link , it's the same thing in Linux host too.

  >Default VMware Player uses key combination Ctrl + Alt to jump out of the guest. Then CTRLAltdel is accessible via theAltInsert command. If you find this annoying, you can change the jump shortcut to CtrlAltshift by adding the following lines to your ~/.vmware/preferences:

  > pref.hotkey.shift = "true".

  > pref.hotkey.control = "true".

  > pref.hotkey.alt = "true".

  After your installation OS in the virtual machine, install "VMware Tools" on it so you will get better performance and some improvements (like moving your mouse out of guest to your host operating system operating system and Vice Versa, or be able to copy beyond host/guest, better resolution on reviews and...)

  I hope it helps a bit.

• Help. The CPU has been disabled by the guest operating system. Power off or reset the virtual machine. WHY?

  Greetings.

  I have a 5.5 with an operating system Red Hat 5.10 ESXi environment. The OS worked fine until a few days ago. ESXi displays the error "the CPU has been disabled by the guest operating system. Power off or reset the virtual machine. I Don t know why my server displays the error if my environment was OK. Could be a kernel problem? operating system problem?

  Ideas?

  Thanks for the help.

• VM does not start after the crash of the guest operating system

  VM Workstation 10.03

  VM normally works well under VM for over a year.

  While I was updating a mp3 Player XP is crushed, and even power off the virtual machine does not work.

  After a Resart of the host operating system, the guest could not start.

  I deleted the directory .lck file.

  When I start the VM OS prompt written

• Most recent version of the guest operating system as the host of the basic version?

  H there, just a quick question.

  Would this work if guest operating system is 10.7 but host operating system is 10.6.8? I use 4 Fusion

  Very much appreciated.

  Technically by the OS X ALS detail you can only virtualize a legally virtalizable version of Mac OS X (Client) under him.  In other words under OS X 10.6 Client ALS detail allows to be virtualized so so technically the only legally virtalizable version of Mac OS X is Mac OS X Server 10.5.x/10.6.x that which is technically required by the SLA in detail and what is technically possible are two different things.  In other words we can virtualize OS X 10.7 (Client or server) but ALS retail for OS X 10.7 requires it be done on OS X 10.7.  Now VMware and VMware Fusion or not apply this requirement and it is up to the user to work in the product EULA and or SLA.

  BTW I don't remember if VMware Fusion 4 supported OS x 10.7, but if it's a selectable BONE in the wizard, then you can try though in violation of ALS retail for OS X 10.7 If you use a retail OS X 10.7.

• Performance problem with the guest operating system

  Hello gurus - I have one of the most unusual questions, I ran into a few time.   Here it is:

  I have a guest w2008R2 OS - installed in a 5.1 version of VM 7 vSpherer - which has an Emulex LPe 12002-E 8 GB dual HBA port is assigned to the as 2 PCI (1 device per port) via DirectPath devices

  The guest operating system has an application that performs backup tests.   WWPN of the HBA is zoned in the fabric and declared in the interface of Compellent Storage Center and everything is good here. the application creates a replay of a volume, mount it as a drive, read all the blocks, then dismantles and moves then repeat the process with what ever additional volumes should be safeguarded.   It is so cool I have do this with a VM right and not a physical host?  (would be cool if I had work NPIV but that's another story, not with technology HBA vendor support...)

  So, what's the problem?   Well, the bed the mounted disk backup will work extremely slow as slow as 5MB\sec flow, then during any other activity takes place on the system the flow jumps up to 150MB\sec all of a sudden and will continue to run fast for a long time and finish jobs on time with each work taking a little more than an hour.  But when the slow going the same work (all jobs are the same, they are simply by reading all the blocks of a bunch of 200 GB volumes and wrote a set of NULL value, do not forget this is just test) takes up to 10 hours to complete.

  I think that what is the culprit?   POWER MANAGEMENT.

  I have just about each performance counter and the journal of events known to man and I don't see anything abnormal on the table, ESXi virtual machine, nothing.  But what I see in the newspapers is any kind of activity that could happen in a transparent manner to save energy.

  FACTS on this case:

  -Reservation of memory is defined (it must be for directpath otherwise, you can't power on the virtual machine)

  -Booking CPU - has not been defined before an hour ago, I gave her just a small reserve for this rule, so I do not know if this will help alleviate the slow flow, or have an effect on what I think is a question of power (unit linked) management

  -windows power management is set to high performance never-ever - but not until an hour there doesn't I changed advanced settings for USB Disabled------turned off.  PCI peripheral energy saving setting was already off.  Which is in contradiction with my theory.  But maybe, just maybe, something is broken somewhere, or could be a bug... blah blah blah

  -the HBA, Emulex, as it appears in Device Manager in the guest OS doesn't have a power management tab to disable the feature, I don't see that the adapter VMXNET3 had this tab, and I turn off the power save setting to be conservative, do not think that it was the culprit, but as there is no real data running through the NIC.  The data is simply to be read from the disk mounted, not copied on any wire Ethernet.  never the less, in the Emulex properties is a Details tab and a selection of power data, and performance data indicate you what power mode, the device is, as well as feeding supported systems.  D0: full power, but D3, which shows as supported by the device, is an energy saving mode.   I could not yet attend the setting at the time of slow activity, my good intention as soon as possible. He is currently shooting in D0, full power.

  This is so what I have to offer on this, I hope that its just...   If I'm missing something, or if others have experienced this massive loss of unknown flow without reason and have resolutions, please share.

  If there is a way for me to disable power on the Emulex HBA management inform you please, I don't mind if I stop to enter the firmware, if that was even possible.  But if possible I would disable it immediately before any new tests are executed.

  The root cause of this issue has never been identified by VMware support which for me is a question of ugly.  Reservation of CPU for the VM using directpath IO with HBA installed in it corrected the problem.  I'd be leary with direct path IO.
