• How do I redo effect after restarting the guest operating system?

  Hi all

  I use VMWare Server 2 and VMWare Player 2.x. We had to redo it to hard drive. But it is only valid after the power off and power on the guest operating system.

  We want to be effective after the guest OS restarts from himself.

  Our guest operating system is Windows XP Pro 32 bit, server host is OpenSUSE 11.1, player host is Windows 7.

  Thanks in advance.

  Kind regards

  Cavendish

  Hello

  According to Manual of VMware server, you can only discard all changes the disk not persistent after power out voltage or reset.

  You can use the reset vmrun command if you want to turn off your virtual machine. You must use the reset option (it has the same function as Reset button on the real machine).

• 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.

  Have a look here. http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalID=2000542

  Did you recently patch your VM? Looks like when the guest operating system runs the incorrect commands that it can have a deactivated processor.

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

  VM Workstation 10.03

  Host OS Ubuntu 12.04

  Guest OS Windows XP SP3

  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

  Loading... - VMware Workstatiion

  and nothing else happens.

  Another guest operating system will work very well.

  How can I restart my XP?

  After a day down from the host (a very cold reboot) and deleting all .lck files.

  VM aloowed me to dispose of the session.

  After that cold booted XP as it was before.

  Thanks to a.p. to put me on the right forum.

• 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.

• Surface Pro 3 - errors when you try to start a guest operating system 64-bit

  I get the following errors setting up an Ubuntu guest operating system.

  This virtual machine is configured for 64-bit operating systems. However, the 64-bit mode is not possible.

  This host supports Intel VT - x, but Intel VT - x is disabled.

  Intel VT - x can be disabled if it has been disabled in the BIOS/firmware settings or host was not powered by bicycle since changing this setting.

  (1) check that the settings BIOS/firmware activate Intel VT - x and disable "trust execution."

  2 turn on the host if either of these BIOS/firmware settings have been changed.

  (3) turn on the host if you have not done since the installation of VMware Workstation.

  (4) update of the BIOS/firmware from the host to the latest version.

  I've been Googling this problem since yesterday and so far, I have not come to any possible solution. Certainly, I can install the 32-bit linux flavor, but that doesn't help me when I run the installation to other 64-bit operating systems.

  I was able to resolve the issue, after most googleing. I'm always a little surprised that it works, but hey, Ubuntu is installing.

  I installed Microsoft Visual Studio, including phone windows SDK (must be included).  I disabled and then Hyper-V by issued this command in a shell of administrator command:

  bcdedit/set hypervisorlaunchtype

  If you want to reactivate it, you then type this command

  bcdedit/set auto hypervisorlaunchtype

  WinSupersite credit for the tip (link http://winsupersite.com/mobile-devices/surface-pro-3-tip-hyper-v-vs-connected-standby)

  Once I rebooted and restarted Vmware, I could start Ubuntu and start the installation process.

• 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,.

• 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.

• Is it possible to install multiple copies of Windows 7 in Virtualbox as guest operating system

  Hello

  My laptop runs on Linux OS, I installed VirtualBox. Now, I would like to install multiple copies of Windows 7 on VirtualBox as a guest operating system.

  Is this possible?

  My activation will expire after 3 installations?

  What are the limits in this situation?

  Microsoft treats several facilities in VirtualBox (as guest operating system) as a single installation instance? I think that the hardware (motherboard) is used as a fingerprint to detect changes in the systems, but as the material is going to be the same custom installation will be treated as a single instance?

  Help, please...

  Thank you

  Hello

  There are not 3 installs with 1 license

• 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,.

• 32-bit guest operating system installed on ESXi 5 but still shows CPU 64-bit

  Hi all:

  I installed a guest operating system 32-bit RH6.2 on ESXi 5

  

  But when I try to create 32-bit applications, it seems that the CPU is 64-bit

  

  Is this something that I'm not just doing?

  Thank you very much

  Morgan Yang

  The virtual machine behaves exactly like a physical machine in this regard.  Installation of a 32 bit OS does not make your CPU a 32-bit CPU.

  If you want to disable the 64-bit mode, add the following advanced configuration option:

  The issue I'm having is on the slopes significantly slower than #2 #1 VM.  #2 works pretty decently.  #1... well over this long last week I started it after being unused for awhile.  I got the prompt to install VMTools so I did this. He took over 36 hours to install VMTools!  ;-((.  I want to update the operating system with updates from MS since several months, but I did not "months (or more!" to run through the update.

  What are the options (performance etc.) would you suggest for #1?  Apparently, the two #1 and #2 are the same, as far as I KNOW, in all other aspects of the guest operating system and settings.  Is there a setting/performance video or paper about this game and how build/debugging etc. for optimal performance?

  TIA!

  Hello.

  How did they build each of these virtual machines out there?

  #1 is slow if #2 is also well off?

  Good luck!
