• How to install CM2320fxi MFP into a MS HyperV Virtual Machine?

  I have a Microsoft Server 2008R2 Enterprise running HyperV with several Windows 7 32-bit Enterprise workstations. I would like to install a CM2320fxi MFP CC435A printer on the virtual machines, but on installation I select network installation and I get an error message saying "cannot find the USB device" and the installation will stop. Does anyone else have this problem? Is there a way to install this printer on a MS virtual machine? I have another bran of the MFP installed on MS virtual machines and they install fine.

  Thank you

• How to install vmware tools to a group of virtual machin?  or how to install vmware tools image to a group of virtual machin?

  Hi dear all virtualization expert

  are you know or have a solution for this?

  It's important I

  Hello

  You can try something like this...

  In vSphere client, choose display of virtual machines and templates.

  From there create a folder unless you already have one and move the virtual machines in question in this case. (you can also select a host, it must not be a folder).

  In the upper pane, select the virtual machines when you have selected the folder, or the host. You can select more than one virtual machine and right-click-> comments-> installation/upgrade to update VMware tools.

  I hope this helps.

• How to pass the start settings in starting a virtual machine?

  How can I use PowerCLI to start a new Linux VM and the nucleus of some startup parameters?

  What would be more simple: (a) to make and use a virtual machine model, or (b) to boot from an ISO image, or (c) start with a Linux VM and the clone who?

  The basic Linux is RedHat on an ISO on the network (ISO can be on a local path running the PowerCLI script if necessary).  If a model would be easier then a diagram how to make one of my ISO would be great!

  RedHat Linux can be configured by passing parameters of the kernel startup, so kickstart configures the system, something like

  KS=/my/path/KS.cfg otherparams

  where KS.cfg says kickstart what to do.

  How to pass the start settings in the new virtual machine?

  (It is probably completely irrelevant, but I work with Xen using bash scripting and)

  $UUID = xe model vm-install = "RedHatLinux64bit."

  XE vm-param-set uuid = $UUID PV-args="ks=/my/path/ks.cfg '.

  XE-vm-beginning uuid = $UUID

  now, it must be implemented on ESX. To determine when the new VM is fuly configured, my scripts from kickstart wrote a semaphore to be detected by the bash script.)

  I know very little about ESX and PowerCLI details will be particularly useful if you please!

  Thank you!

• Problem installing oracle 11 g 2 in a virtual machine with IP dynamic

  Hello

  I have install oracle 11 g 2 on a virtual machine in Vmware workstation with dynamic IP address.

  Then I noticed that the global database name is orcl.16.27.57, and the identifier service oracle is orcl on step 10 of window 19

  There will be a configuration manager warning and the company failed due to the following error:

  Listening is not or the database service is not registered with it.

  And even I change the name of global database for orcl, it has also failed.

  When I use the static IP, the name of the database world so SID is orcl.

  then complete the installation.

  So I don't know what the reason is, how to install it without warning during the dynamic use of IP.

  Whenever I have install oracle with static IP, I can't continue like that again.

  Help!

  Thank you

  Now, I'm happy to say it works. Two methods to solve this problem.

  1. install Microsoft Loopback adapt

  2 edit the file hosts, IP hostname

  Of course, we can run them both.

  Thank you

• URGENT! After installing 6 Fusion and creation of new virtual machine with Windows 7, I get a message "VMware Fusion cannot enter the unit". WHAT SHOULD DO?

  After purchase, installation and activation Fusion 6 with the license key, I had a library of VMS showing 2 Boot Camp partitions. It's strange that I only have 1.
  I tried to activate them but received a message that it is out of date in 2 cases. (see annex 1)

  I started a new virtual machine with a Windows 7 installation disc directly on my HD. I have provided a way to do this and followed the instructions of Fusion to the screen.

  Apparently, everything went well and after several restarts, the installation appears to be over (see annex 2) I tried to open and run the installed Windows 7. I had however a window with the following message:

  "Pending the unit.

  "VMware Fusion cannot enter the unit. Please wait until the unit starts automatically, or interact with the virtual machine below. ' (see annex 3)

  Here Windows 7 seems to start but after a while with the home screen and of the Øresund finishing this window closed and open a new window called library Virtual Machine on the left showing the partitions of Bootcamp and the Virtual Machine Windows 7 x 64 and in the middle gray a representation of what is supposed to be the Windows 7 desktop. (see Exhibit 4). When I opened the settings button a window with different setting options pops up. This mark means to me that Windows is installed but the final opening isn't the case

  When you quit Vmware Fusion indeed Windows seems to be close (see part 5)

  What is going on? What has gone wrong? What should I do? I don't know how to solve the problem.

  I should f.i. remove the virtual machine from Windows 7 and is free automatically made partition on my HD as the reboot with the Windows installation disc? or y at - it another way to enter the UNIT?

  Help, please!

  Thanks in advance

  Your virtual machine is running. It is in the unit - which each windows gets its own window of Mac - and you have no application Windows running, there is no visible windows. You can start a Windows application in the start of Fusion menu in the menu bar at the top right, or turn on the Windows task bar on the view menu and start applications from there. Or use the view menu to switch to the Single mode or full-screen, which puts all of your Windows desktop in a window separate from Mac.

  You do not have two partitions to Boot Camp on your Mac, you have two virtual machines named "Boot Camp partition".

  The message about it being unable to enter the unit arrives while the merger is pending for the tools begin to run, because the tool is necessary for the unit.

• How to upgrade v4.1 when vCenter is a virtual machine?

  Hello

  
  We have ESXi 4.1 on our host (only 1) and want to update to the latest version.  Our vCenter server is a 64-bit VM.  Prior to v4.1, we used the host update utility, but it can not be used today.  Can someone please tell me how we can put our host firmware update and other critical updates when vCenter is on a virtual machine?  It seems that the host must be placed in Maintenance Mode, and all the virtual machines in this regard must be stopped, so I have a problem before the hen's egg.  We do not have another host that we can migrate virtual machines to when the update...

  
  Thank you for your help,

  
  Mike

  You will have to establish a direct connection to your host with the vSphere client, close the VMs and placing the host in maintenance mode.  You can then use the vihostupdate of the vCLI or InstallVMHostUpdate of PowerCLI for updating your host.  With the vCLI or PowerCLI you can also script the closure of VMs and placing the host in maintenance mode. http://www.VMware.com/support/developer/PowerCLI/PowerCLI41U1/HTML/install-VMHostPatch.html

• How to replace oracle JInitiator with other Native Java Virtual Machine?

  Dear Experts
  I installed ony my server not IBM application called "IBM Filenet IDM webservice".
  It is used for the analysis documents aweb application.
  The problem is that this product uses other Machines virtual Java.  IBM.
  This causes a conflict with Oracle JInitiator.
  So, I decided to depend on Sun or IBM java virtual machine.
  But I don't know how to do this.
  What are the system requirements?
  Help, please

  Hello

  By default in formsweb.cfg you have a section called \[jpi\].
  If you run the form with config = YPI added to URL Sun JRE will be used instead of Jinitiator. Note that you must specify correct jpi_classid in formsweb.cfg match the version of JRE to your client computers.

  To configure forms server to use any version of JRE installed on the client computer, you can create a section in formsweb.cfg

  \[jpidynamic\]
  baseHTMLJInitiator = basejpi.htm
  jpi_download_page = http://java.sun.com/products/archive/j2se/1.4.2_09/index.html
  jpi_classid = clsid:8AD9C840 - 044F-11 D 1-B3E9-00805F499D93
  jpi_codebase = http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/autodl/jinstall-1_4-windows-i586.cab#Version=1, 4,0,0

  and to call the forms with configuration of parameter URL = jpidynamic

  It will be useful,

• How can I get the version of VMware to virtual machines with powercli officer?

  How can I get the version of VMware View Agent running on a virtual machine with powercli or view Powercli?

  As much as I know there is no cmdlet PowerCLI for this, but you can use the Invoke-VMScript cmdlet and interrogate the Win32_Product class.

  By running the following. You can add a Where clause to return only the Agent of the view

  Get-WmiObject-class Win32_Product | Select the name, Version

• How everyone counts the total amount of GHz for virtual machines on a host-cluster?

  Hello

  I want to do some basic sizing and I may\may do not go the way to write about it.  For example, suppose I have a cluster of 4 nodes with a total of 200GHz and 1 TB of RAM on all four hosts with 100 VM.  How can I get the total amount of GHz\Memory that each virtual machine is configured with (not necessaryly to aid real-time) so that I can workout or demonstrate what fits on one or two hosts in the cluster, for example?

  Thanks for your help and advice in advance

  You can do this via the inventory tool called RVTOOL which allow you to do an inventory of all your virtual machines and hosts with the resource assigned and served. hope, it will help you.

• How do to activate 'VAPP Options' on an existing virtual machine, and then add the properties that will be passed down through the OVF - ENV. XML

  
  
  I'm trying to understand vSphere PowerCLI how to activate the "Options of VAPP" on an exsiting VM (in this case a model freshly cloned) then add properties and select cdrom of the FVO data access such as when the virtual machine is running the FVO - env.xml contains the properties in the CD-ROM drive.
  
  If I use the vSphere client and open the virtual machine settings and click on the tab 'Options' and then select "Options of VAPP" and change the setting to "Enabled" and then select 'VAPP-> Advanced Options' and click on the button 'Properties' on the right, I can add the properties and then I can change them vsphere PowerCLI, but given that these actions are not retained if I clone the virtual machine I need a way to put these in place of vSphere PowerCLI without using the vSphere client to do.
  
  Thanks in advance for the help!
  
  

  Mike

  You can use the vSphere API to activate the 'Options of VAPP"on an existing virtual machine, and set properties. For example:

  $spec = new-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec

  $spec.vAppConfig = new-Object VMware.Vim.VmConfigSpec

  $spec.vAppConfig.property = new-Object VMware.Vim.VAppPropertySpec [] (1)

  $spec.vAppConfig.property [0] = new-Object VMware.Vim.VAppPropertySpec

  $spec.vAppConfig.property [0] .operation = 'Add '.

  $spec.vAppConfig.property [0] = new-Object VMware.Vim.VAppPropertyInfo .info

  $spec.vAppConfig.property [0].info.key = 0

  $spec.vAppConfig.property [0].info.classId = "Property1ClassID".

  $spec.vAppConfig.property [0].info.instanceId = "Property1InstanceID".

  $spec.vAppConfig.property [0].info.id = "Property_1.

  $spec.vAppConfig.property [0].info.category = "Property1Category".

  $spec.vAppConfig.property [0].info.label = "property 1.

  $spec.vAppConfig.property [0].info.type = "string".

  $spec.vAppConfig.property [0].info.userConfigurable = $true

  $spec.vAppConfig.property [0].info.defaultValue = "Property1DefaultValue".

  $spec.vAppConfig.property [0].info.value = «»

  $spec.vAppConfig.property [0].info.description = "Property1Description".

  $vm = get-VM-name vm3

• How to remove the msg: "consolidation of disks of virtual machines is necessary."

  Hi all

  I implement vSphere 5, and I have the following message displayed in the vCenter (virtual machine Summary tab). Does anyone know how to remove the message without consolidating the snapshot?
  ----------------------------------------------------
  "Consolidation of disks of virtual machines is necessary."
  ----------------------------------------------------

  I think vCenter is detect the Delta for this virtual machine and warning me that I have to consolidate the snapshot. However, I do not want to consolidate the snapshot because the database is still running when the snapshot was taken, and there is a great chance that the data will be corrupt when I consolidate this delta disk file.

  I looked towards the top of the Knowledge Base, but it does not say how to stop the message without actually consolidate the snapshot.
  ----------------------------------------------------
  Instant KB:2003638 in vSphere consolidation 5
  http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 2003638
  ----------------------------------------------------

  Thanks for you information in advance!

  < environment >

  -VMWare vSphere 5 ESXi
  -VMWare vSphere vCenter 5
  -NetApp storage

  the message will disappear as soon as snapshots are consolidated.  There is no way to remove the message otherwise.  Just think of it as a reminder that the snapshots should be engaged.

• How to add the AD security group in each virtual machine with a name corresponding in VCenter?

  Hi all

  I would like to know if it is possible with VMware PowerCLI v4.1, I created the universal security group called 'Local administrators on %ComputerName%' for each server I have in UO computers by location OR separate and that he manually add members of the Local, but I want to attribute this security group in each computer virtual with the same name if possible.

  Basically, it's something like this:

  In the ad, here are computer objects:
  DOMAIN.com/Computers/ mailserver1-VM
  DOMAIN.com/Computers/ DBServer1-VM
  DOMAIN.com/Computers/ ApplicationServer1-VM

  In the ad's local security group objects:
  DOMAIN.com/SecureProductionOU/ 'Administrator locally on mailserver1-VM'
  DOMAIN.com/SecureProductionOU/ 'Local on DBServer1-VM administrator.
  DOMAIN.com/SecureProductionOU/ 'Local on ApplicationServer1-VM administrator.

  So I want to affect these security group in each respective name of VMS in VCenter:

  VCenter01.domain.com
  Datacenter1
  HighPerformanceCluster1
  Mailserver1-VM - Local Administrator on mailserver1-VM - role: read-only
  DBServer1-VM - Local Administrator on DBServer1-VM - role: read-only
  ApplicationServer1-VM - Local Administrator on ApplicationServer1-VM - role: read-only

  Any kind of aid and assistance would be appreciated grgeatly.

  Thank you.

  Hi Albert,

  I don't know what you want to check exactly, so I give 2 possible solutions.

  (1) you have a fixed number of names known to virtual machines for which you want to add this permission.

  $targetVM = "MailServer1-VM","DBServer1-VM","ApplicationServer1-VM"
  
  Get-Cluster -Name HighPerformanceCluster1 | Get-VM | `    where {$targetVM -contains $_.Name} | %{    New-VIPermission -Entity $_ -Principal ("DOMAIN\Local Administrator on " + $_.Name) `       -Role (Get-VIRole -Name ReadOnly) -Confirm:$false   }
  

  (2) you want to check for each virtual computer if the security group exist and then add the authorization.

  Get-Cluster -Name HighPerformanceCluster1 | Get-VM | `    Where{Get-QADObject ("DOMAIN\Local Administrator on " + $_.Name) `        -DontUseDefaultIncludedProperties -WarningAction SilentlyContinue `        -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue -SizeLimit 1} | %{    New-VIPermission -Entity $_ -Principal ("DOMAIN\Local Administrator on " + $_.Name) `        -Role (Get-VIRole -Name ReadOnly) -Confirm:$false} 
  

  Note that this requires the Quest AD snap-in must be installed. If you have a version without the Quest AD snap let me know.

• How can I change the names of directory of virtual machine in VMWare ESXi data storage?

  I've always used host names, but I have changed several times, since the structure is bigger and I now 25 virtual machines. I started renaming to v, s, w - and then their hostname.

  For now, the data store directory is a real mess without the new structure and it bothers me. Is it possible to rename directories? Perhaps using vcenter? I would like to see a beautiful tree as: DWT-win2003, centos5 tpl, tpl-debian6, s-server01, server02-s, w-exchange01, w-mssql01, just as I renamed it to VMS. I tried the migration option, but it only allows for migration between host data warehouses and not to rename the directory that hosts the virtual machine.

  How can I change the my data store directory structure? I have considered changing the paths and edit vmx files to correct the paths, and then add servers to be inventoried. But I don't really know if this can be done without penalty or if there is a better solution.

  the easiest way, continuously needs storage vMotion of the guest.  It renames the folder and the underlying file for the same as the name of object of vCenter. If you don't have much storage vMotion, then turn off the prompt and do a cold migration.
