• Hardware upgrade to ESXi servers

  I have 3 ESXi servers and we intend to replace these servers with new servers.  What would be the best way to replace the old servers?  Can I somehow image the old server to the new server?  We use ESXi 4.1 and vSphere Enterprise.

  Yes - you can then follow the upgrade guide - http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-50/topic/com.vmware.ICbase/PDF/vsphere-esxi-vcenter-server-501-upgrade-guide.pdf

• problem with windows 2003 vpn servers. and xp pro clients vpn using bridge nic

  I have installed 2 guests windows 2003 on 2 laptops. both are configured with 1 CC of backend and frontend 1 nat/vpn server that has 2 interfaces, a bridge and one configured for host only.

  I configure nat on both servers windows 2003 rras and vpn services and have them connected to my local network. they are able to access internet, ping between them and other computers on the network, as well as the host systems on which they run.

  the problem is that I am not able to connect to the vpn servers remotely from inside a guest virtual machine. I wanted to try a vpn site-to site between the guests 2 windows 2003, but the operation failed.

  I then tested customer to type of a guest virtual computer pro xp vpn server. It is also a failure.

  but I discovered that if I initiate a VPN from any one of the host computer system laptop or another computer on the physical network I am able to connect to the vpn servers I have set up.

  I wish I could have these laptops to operate normally and

  time to time be able to turn on virtual machines with vpn

  servers and test as dfs things and replication active directory as if

  they were running 2 separate real-world offices. the two laptops have invited Setup for 192.168.0.0 networks with subnet mask 255.255.255.192. each host that it supposed to be running a 1 subnet for the popular virtual machine with the servers vpn/nat connect together the 2 sites.

  laptop computers are running xp pro and vista ultimate as the host systems. I'm only using the windows firewall but also tested with them disabled vpn connections. also launches the service ipsec on laptops to secure internal lan traffic, I have also tested with two guests with disabled ipsec.

  is there something I'm missing here with the installation of the vmware bridge network?

  Oh I forgot to mention, I test using pptp and ms-chap v2

  I managed to do work by unchecking the tcp/ip settings and the microsoft file sharing on the bridged NIC resaeau.

  now it works very well but who explain to me why it cannot work when you are using the same network as the host card. they all have two different ip addresses and mac addresses. but something seems to be in conflict

• Security Server / connection to the server and windows 2003 server roles

  Y at - it no server role recommended I should appy to each of my servers windows 2003 in order to better to run/manage the

  1. security in the DMZ server and

  2. Broker within the network Corp.

  or better, I'll have no windows server role defined on two machines?

  Well, officially, you can use the Security Configuration Wizard to lock your server more far. But I saw that it really breaks things. I would just disable services you need (as always) and trust in your firewall. Of course, only open ports on your firewall required specifically by the Security server. Internet: 80 and 443.

• Problems of Flash player v11 on Windows 2003 Terminal Server upgrade

  Hello

  I am trying to upgrade of several Server Terminal Server to Windows 2003 32-bit, v5.2 IE Flash plugin version 11.1.102.63.  It did not work on the first two servers I tried, and later I concentrated my tests on one of them.  The version on the server before the upgrade attempt has been 10.3.181.14.

  Whenever I try the upgrade, the executable initially runs, but then does nothing.  The running process is visible in the Task Manager, with no resources of treatment and about 18 MB of memory.  Unless I kill the process manually, it will sit like that indefinitely.  If I try the installation again, I get a message advising me that a single instance of the process can run.

  I tried to reboot the server, I tried to install terminal server mode server running the installation, I tried to uninstall the previous version, I tried to reinstall the previous version (which works fine).  For some reason, this version will not work.

  Any suggestions as to the next step would be very welcome.

  Thanks in advance.

  We have an old computer with Windows XP Pro 2002 SP3 server is installed.  There is also other software that we need on this issue to run new software, we want to install, but the new software is only compatible with Windows 2003 Standard R2.  So is it possible to XP to Windows 2003 Standard R2 level so that the settings and software on it are left alone - as it is with the Windows Vista upgrade to Windows 7?

  Thank you!

  No, there is no path not upgrading to this version of Windows XP Professional.  You will need to do a clean install, which of course would not preserve your settings and/or other software.

  OS: Windows Vista Home Premium (32 bit)
  Recently replaced hardware: motherboard, RAM, processor, power supply, chassis

  As stated, things were aired as easily as they always until today, when I noticed that my office is transformed to a solid black color instead of the wallpaper I had already. Then I noticed an icon in the system tray indicating that I could click it to activate my copy of Windows; When you click on it, I gives me the message "the product key of Windows Vista Edition Family Premium you typed is invalid for activation."  I've been running this copy of Windows for four and a half, and it has been installed on the PC that I bought directly from Dell, so I know that it is a legitimate copy. As my Dell OEM chassis has been replaced by a generic box (the new motherboard did fit properly into the exclusive Dell chassis), I do not have the sticker with the information of Windows, so I can't post it. I'll post the MGA information below; any additional necessary information is available, but I don't know what else could be required to post.

  Information copied to my Clipboard of the MGA diagnosis tool are the following:

  Well, it's a disappointment. If this is the case, it would be possible to purchase a license upgrade to Windows 7, or should I get a full version? I prefer to get the version if possible upgrade from $80 it's cheaper. Cancellation of my driver's license means that it is no longer an option?

  "I suggest you buy a Windows 7 license, that Vista is no longer sold."

  As I recommended you it to my 1st answer you need to buy a Windows 7 license.

  And the reason is that you now don't have a Windows license to upgrade qualification, as your Vista license is void for the reasons I have already explained to you in my previous to this topic answers...

  And before you buy a license of Windows 7, follow these steps to check if your hardware and software is Compatible Windows 7.

  Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer Web site and see if Windows 7 drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.

  If this is not available, Windows 7 will not properly work for you.

  Run the "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/en-US/Download/details.aspx?ID=20

  Check if your specifications are compatible for Windows 7:

  "Windows 7 system requirements"

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/products/system-requirements

  "Windows 7 Compatibility Center" for software and hardware:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/Windows-7/en-us/default.aspx

  And the Microsoft Store where you can get an idea of the price of Windows 7:

  http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/en_US/list/CategoryID.50726100

  See you soon.

• upgrade in place windows 2003 32-bit

  Hi all

  I have a problem, make an upgrade on the spot of a machine virtual windows 2003 32-bit to 32-bit Windows 2008. I need for it that the applications running on the existing operating system is not compatible with 64 bit OS. All is well until the last step "Completing upgrade" up to 52% then start restart and just never came up. If I'm going to "Safe Mode", it stops on Windows\system32\drivers\CRCDISK. SYS when trying to load the drivers. I tried loads of options none of them worked. I'd appreciate any help.

  Hello

  The controller is parallel LSI. I managed to solve the problem with a little to manipulate the operating system. I had to make some registry changes (system32\config\...) and reboot several times, that upgraded with little success. Then I had to upgrade a Windows 2008 to windows 2008! Yet one more time to work things out. I know it sounded strange. At the moment he works and as I mentioned the current controller is parallel LSI. Thanks for your reply.

  Hello
  
  Currently, we are conducting 32-bit essbase in windows 2003 standard edition 32 - bit os. We are planning to upgrade to windows 2003 enterprise edition 32-bit os (or) windows 2003 standard edition 64-bit operating system...
  
  so in this scenario
  
  1 > my current essbase applications will have no effect (or). ???
  
  2 > if aplications get impact what could be the possbilities for this scenario...?

  With Essbase you should not all the problems of your switch/bet far Win 2003 Enterprise Edition.

  If you are moving to x 64 Win Server you will probably have to do a full install on a new machine in which case you will just be transfer (.otl) schema files, etc. for the Essbase Essbase Server to the new. So no effect as long as you install more Essbase on x 64 don't box correctly.
