How can I connect to a virtual machine that uses a NAT map from outside via RDP

Hi, I'm under workstation 7.11. I have a windows xp virtual machines all use adapter NAT of VMware Workstation for connectivity. I am only able to connect to the VMs with RDP client via the host. If I try to anywhere else, I am unable to connect.

You can use linked by a bridge instead of NAT?  If this isn't the case, you need to enable Port Forwarding on the VMnet in the virtual network Editor.  FWIW, if you do not enable Port Forwarding I recommend setting up on a VMnet custom as VMnet2 example and assign the NIC of the virtual machine.  This keep the default VMnet8 for an unaltered NAT network.

Default port for RDP is TCP 3389

  • VMware 6.5.5 cannot import the virtual machine that uses 2GB "disks of split.

    Hello

    I'm using VMware Workstation 6.5.5 under Win XP. I tried to import a virtual machine that was created by using the option 'Split' virtual disks into files of 2 GB. The import fails and presents a pop-up: ' Conversion Assistant/cannot determine the guest operating system. The log file includes the line "could not find the disk cofortcol3v01 - cl1.vmdk. This file does not exist of course, there are more files cofortcol3v01-cl1 - s001.vmdk, cofortcol3v01-cl1 - s002.vmdk and so on. The machine virtual original (cofortcol3v01) has been created under VMware Workstation 5.1, and it does not under Workstation 6.5.5.

    Is this a known problem in the conversion utility? Is there a work around for this problem?

    Thank you.

    FYI... VMware Workstation peut import a Virtual Machine that uses twoGbMaxExtentSparse discs.

    The log file includes the line "could not find the disk cofortcol3v01 - cl1.vmdk. This file does not exist of course, rather there are files cofortcol3v01-cl1 - s001.vmdk, cofortcol3v01-cl1 - s002.vmdk and so on. The machine virtual original (cofortcol3v01) has been created under VMware Workstation 5.1, and it does not under Workstation 6.5.5.

    Is this a known problem in the conversion utility? Is there a work around for this problem?

    The problem is that you're missing the "disk DescriptorFile", "cofortcol3v01 - cl1.vmdk" and which is why it's a failure and not a limitation of the Conversion utility.

    Also if you actually had a Virtual Machine created in VMware Workstation 5.1 you can simply run directly under VMware Workstation 6.5.5 without having to run the import command.

    Anyway, if you have a backup that you can recover the file "cofortcol3v01 - cl1.vmdk" then you should be fine and if you have not then a new can be created.  If you can archive (compress) files vmware*.log (usually 4 of them) in a single zip file archive and tied him to a post in response, then one of us will create a new file "cofortcol3v01 - cl1.vmdk", based on the information contained in files vmware.log for you, if you don't know how to do it yourself.

  • Host of XP with 4 GB of Ram - how much memeory can I connect to all virtual machines?

    I am running 2 VM (XP Pro - 32-bit)) on the XP Pro - 32-bit host (running Server 2.0).  I know there is a restriction on the host computer using only 3 GB of it, but I was wondering if the virtual machines have this limitation.  Example - if I assign 1.5 GB for each of 2 virtual machines, that is to say 3 GB used my VM 2 - will be the other 1 GB can be used by the host?  Alternativle, could I run 3 VM each with 1 GB and then the host would use the 1 GB remaining?  Or anything running on the system limited to 3 GB?

    I noticed when creating VM will occur, he says that I can attribute something like 4096MB before the exchange of memory?  Seems weird to me.  Any info on how memory is managed is useful!  I am not concerned about performance problems... I understand the limitation of the who simply want to understand whether or not the last 1 GB of ram is even used.  Thank you!

    in fact, you don't have to worry about this

    the VM process will be spread in all of your CPU/cores/HT etc.

  • How can I mutual folder "discovered virtual machines.

    I use c# api.

    When I get all records in a data center, I get the host, the vm and the discovery of the virtual machines folder.

    When you request the property of hostFolder - you download the file from the host. It goes the same for vmFolder.

    How to identify the folder "discovered virtual machines? What size should I look to find this file specifically?

    I don't want to find all the files and compare names, because files can be renamed.

    Help, please.

    Thank you.

    idanmnr

    Iamw is right.  The vmFolder will contain the "discovered virtual machines" folder, you would just do a search from there.

    What becomes tricky is that it is possible that someone is offering this particular folder in another folder, so probably have to walk down the tree of vmFolder until you find the open folder VM.  If for a simple case, you can assume it will be one of the childEntity of vmFolder objects.

    In addition, this file can be renamed as well.  I don't think that this is a special folder in inventory of VI, comes out just for a default folder that is created for use.  But maybe someone else can provide more details on that.

  • Physical disk how can I add in the Virtual Machine?

    I am trying to set up a network of storage, but I discovered it is there is a limitation for the addition of physical hard disks in the virtual machine.

    I have 1 virtual hard disk for the operating system (SCSI), an invited so I try to add more than 4 disks, but it should not add more than 3. They showed that (IIRC).

    I try to add 4 x 1 TB as physical hard disk in virtual machine hard disks, but it says that I must remove one to add.

    1. in the settings of the Virtual Machine, is there a difference between (SCSI) (IDE) and why are the physical disks (IDE)?

    2. What is the limitation of total hard drives under the VM settings, four?

    Johwwy

    physical disks can be detected such as IDE or SCSI - depends on the drivers used by the host

    SATA in ide-compat mode is used as IDE

    SATA AHCI mode is detected as SCSI

    It is possible to rewrite the descriptions after their creation.

    It is a little advanced - see my notes

    http://sanbarrow.com/VMDK-basics.html#changeadapter

    for a start, it may be necessary to also change the geometry... ask first so uncertain.

    I think the limit of physical disks that can be attached to a virtual machine is 64 = 4 x 15 - scsi and IDE 4-disc drives

  • I can clone (clone full) a virtual machine that has snapshots of Vcenter.

    Hi gurus,

    Can I clone (clone full) an of Vcenter virtual machine that has snapshots.

    Kind regards

    Kamlesh.

    Hello

    Yes, you can clone the virtual computer.

    But your new virtual machine (the clone) will have none of the snapshots of the source of the VM.

    This will be just a version of the source running.

  • How can I create a simple virtual machine with the CD in a newWorkflow

    I created a new workflow with simple virtual machine and added a cdrom workflow but an error is shown.

    How can I reuse of so that the new created VM add a new cdrom in a workflow

    Captura.PNG

    Help me please

    First of all, you only need a single attribute of type VC:VirtualMachine, not two as in the screenshot. You don't need to specify its value; When the first workflow completes, its output should be attributed to this attribute, and then the assigned value must be passed as input to the second workflow.

    To check/edit links, open the first workflow to change, go to the 'Visual links' tab and make sure the workflow output is line connected to the attribute. Do the same for the second workflow, and then make sure that the attribute is connected to the line to the corresponding input parameter.

    Take a look at the workflow attached if you don't know how the maps should look like.

  • Can not find templates of virtual machine by using the command 'Get Template '.

    Hi all

    My apologies if this question was asked before, but not could not find any information about this.

    For some reason when I use the command Get-model PowerCLI I get no results even though I have models on the data store. Using a command such as Get - VM works as expected, but for some reason that the command Get-model just can't find anything. There is something pressing that I may have missed in my virtual environment configuration?

    The environment consists of a data center with a 5.1 ESXi host and several virtual machines residing on it. I also have a virtual appliance of vCenter to manage the host.

    Thank you

    Matt

    Hi Matt,

    When you run Connect-VIServer, you connect to the server ESXi and vCenter?

    I just tested the two:

    • SE connect-VIServer-ESXi Server

      • Get-model didn't recover all data
    • SE connect-VIServer-Server vCenter
      • Get model retrieved data

    Maybe that's the case?

    Hope this helps,

    Steven.

  • How to count the number of virtual machines that are turned on.

    Try to learn this PowerShell stuff... oh what fun.

    Given that maintenance mode does not work unless you manually VMotion servers or stop them, I am trying to program a loop to make sure that all VM on the host is disabled.

    How can I get the value of "#PoweredOn" in this statement so that I can compare it? I want to leave the loop when the number of virtual machines under voltage = 0.

    function shutdownGuests()

    {

    Get-VMHost HOST1. Get - VM | Stop-VMGuest

    $num_powered_on = $null

    {}

    Write-Host $num_powered_on

    Write-Host $PoweredOn

    $num_powered_on = get-VMHost HOST1. Select-Object Name, @{Name = "#PoweredOn"; Expression = {($_ |)} Get - VM | Where-Object {$_.} PowerState - eq "Receptor"} | Measure-Object). {{Count}}

    Start-Sleep - seconds 10

    } While that ($num_powered_on & gt; 0)

    #Loop and check to see if all VMs are closed, and then return to main()

    }

    Try something like this:

    while (get-vmhost XXX | get-vm | where { $_.PowerState -ne "PoweredOff" }) {
        # Wait a while
    }
    
  • can I add additional VMDK virtual machine that is already protected with vSphere 5.1 replication?

    Hello

    What is the procedure to protect that additional newly added VMDK?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Please see the following topics in vSphere replication 5.1 documentation (replication reconfiguration).

    Yes, you can add an another VMDK to a replicated VM. Replication goes into an error state, and you must reconfigure replication and include the newly added to replicate disk.

  • How can I prevent Windows 7 virtual machines to go to "sleep"?

    I am new to VMWare all this so please forgive my ignorance. Deploying a number of virtual desktops using VMWare View via Dell FX - 100 Zero Clients.  After a few calls for VMWare support all get up and running, most of the time I am extremely satisfied.  However, after 10 minutes of inactivity, the VMs go to "sleep", I have configured Windows mode 'High Performance' and 'Never' all set, I changed the OSD on the FX100 "0 (off), nothing seems to work.  It of something I'll just have to deal with, or is there something that I am missing.  This is important because once we go to full production, these machines will be used in a call 911 public safety Center and must stay up permanently.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    I think the script indicates that the machine will go to sleep delete the line. But the damage is done...

    Here is the solution

    Reg ADD "hku\temp\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Control Panel\Desktop" /v ScreenSaverIsSecure d '0' f - change the value to 0 to prevent the screen lock screen saver
    Also make a check after you run the bat file.

  • How can I connect HDTV and LCD to PC using the two - as a dual monitor.

    I recently bought the PC HP Pavilion a6600f w1707 with HP. I also bought a DVI cable to HDMI to connect PC to Samsung HDTV. I can use the VGA cable to connect the monitor and cable DVI to HDMI to connect to HDTV, but log off for the other use. Is it possible to configure Windows Vista Home Premium to display on both screens at the same time, or at least be able to switch between the two without having to unplug one, then restart the computer?

    This can be annoying, but I've done it before.  Usually, you can connect at once, then go to the display panel, settings, advanced, and then there is usually a tab to select the components of the video card.  Mine says NVIDIA...  Once there, you can choose a number of options, for example, clone, extended desktop, etc..  I found that there is some problems with resolution when the display on my TV is over the current screen.
