• Report on the ability of virtual machines VMware Cluster

  We started to evaluate Foglight for capacity planning and evaluation. One of the reports that I believe is interested in our leadership is the "ability of virtual machines VMware Cluster" report. I see that the report provides a value for the VMS remaining. I would like to learn a little more about this value and how is it calculated:

  1. What exactly a 'virtual machine' represents in these reports?
  2. Can a similar report to run using a specific type of server based on the allocation of resources or patterned after an existing VM wokload?

  We are a small, medium and large VM offering based on the allocation of resources. I would like to change the report to display the number of each type of virtual machine I have available... or pointer pointing to an existing virtual machine, and according to its resources and workload, determine how this server, I have available.

  It is based on the average size of the virtual machine in the cluster.  If you look at the dashboard of capacity management in the user interface, it can give you more details by cluster.  It is based on the average of the use of min/max/AVG across all virtual machines in a period given (usually 90 days).  This can not be changed today, but there is work to allow lets you specify a size of slot for something as small, medium, large, etc...

  This feature exists in the Foglight for virtualization, however Standard Edition.  It might be interesting to watch this, if you need it sooner.

• How to access virtual machines after installing fresh windows?

  Hello

  I use windows xp & installed the virtual machines in the D drive to a folder. My windows crashed and I reinstalled windows fresh. Now please guide me how can I access my virtual machines? Already I again install vmware workstation 5. is it necessary to build my virtual machines again or there is another way if the already insatalled VM will connect?

  As long as you still have the files of virtual disk (hard) of the guest, you'll be fine.

  Open VMware Workstation and select to open an existing computer. Browser to the folder where the guest is stored. Select the .vmx file and guest must be back again.

  If you have only the left hard, create a new virtual machine (using the same type of SCSI adapter) when you are prompted to add a drive choose to add an existing one. Navigate to the hard and add it. Fact.

  Add entries in the same winxp(vmware client) host file that u did on the ping server and check for ebiz ebiz Server works very well with the hostname and hostname.domainname.com

  If the ping does not work then you need to fill the adapter from winxp to vmware for the physical NIC of ebiz machine.check below link to fill

• How to move the Virtual Machine VMWare Workstation 10 to a completely different computer

  I have a laptop that is going to become my 'old' laptop, I bought and am always set up a new computer.

  I have a VM THAT evolution created on the 'old' portable using VMWare Workstation 10.  I installed the software VMWare Workstation 10 on the new laptop computer and am ready to move to the existing VM development since the old laptop again to continue the development of software on the virtual machine to the new machine.

  I never moved a computer virtual from one computer to another, and I guess that all I have to do is to copy and move the folder and all its content from the old laptop to the new, and then I'll be back in business?

  Just make sure it is this simple before doing so.

  Thanks for any input.

  It's as simple as that. When you start in the new machine, it should ask if you copied or moved. Answer that you moved it will keep the same MAC address and you will not be able to connect the two copies at the same time. You copied it saying assigns a new MAC and they both can connect, but a Windows machine can ask to reactivate. Seems to me he asked also to reactivate when I copied it for an Intel system AMD system, but it was a long time ago

• How can ping virtual machine on VMware Server external network?

  In the Vmware infrastructure products you can can be crazy from the outside through their individual networks connections, which is a good thing... lol

  How this is possible on VMware Server when guests use the VMnet8 network that uses NAT?

  In many scenarios, the use of bypass is prohibited due to the policy defined at the level of the external switch, but it is still necessary for the basic functionality of ping. Otherwise, how they would be able to know if a virtual machine is actually up to who answered the questionnaire on the network without entering actual connections to such hosts?

  You're right - that's how NAT works (whether via a service such as the VMware NAT service software or a hardware router/firewall NAT).  All computers behind the NAT server are hidden from the outside world (unless you map specific ports to the specific IP address of a computer)... they are so NOT to pings from the outside.

• How to install 64-bit vmware workstation 9 on a win 7 64-bit operating system

  I am trying to load the 64-bit version of the workstation 9 on a 64-bit windows system 7.

  I down loaded the bundle (VMware-workstation-full-version 9.0.0 - 812388.exe) that has the 64-bit and 32-bit.  When I run the Setup, it puts

  C:\Programs(x86 folder) that I am under the impression is for 32-bit applications.

  I have two questions

  (1) how to determine which version of workstation (64 or 32) I loaded?

  (2) if it is 32, how a force installing 64-bit?

  VMware Workstation is the two 32-bit 64 bit.  On 64-bit host, it uses a 64-bit vmware-vmx with it process the lats and the Virtual Machine itself, but the front-end GUI is 32-bit.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hi Sissi,

  Yes. Rapid deployment would be appropriate.

  Also, as you do this for the purpose of learning, I suggested to be in my experience at least 4 GB of RAM. (because Windows 7 takes about 1 GB of RAM & remaining 3 can be used by the virtual machine, so 4 GB is better for optimal performance).

  If you want to watch the Oracle RAM in case specifications, its 16 GB

  See here: rapid deployment

  Thank you

• How can I test that VMware Tools is running?

  In my current project, I occasionally see this error:

  SOAP Fault:
  -----------
  Fault string: Cannot complete operation because VMware Tools is not running in this virtual machine.
  Fault detail: ToolsUnavailableFault
  

  even if I had just dumped this object which seems to have the same appearance as the tools are running or not.

  vm->config->tools: $VAR1 = bless( {
                   'afterPowerOn' => '1',
                   'afterResume' => '1',
                   'beforeGuestShutdown' => '1',
                   'beforeGuestStandby' => '1',
                   'syncTimeWithHost' => '0',
                   'toolsUpgradePolicy' => 'manual',
                   'toolsVersion' => '8295'
                 }, 'ToolsConfigInfo' );
  

  The Summary tab for the relevant vm vSphere Client seems to agree with what I see on the command line, indicating 'OK' when I do not see this error and "Does not work", when I see this error.

  I have clues as to how do I test this and to turn tools on or off if necessary.

  Thank you

  Hugh

  I haven't tried this in Perl, but I think what you want to check for is 
  
  vm->guest->toolsRunningStatus
  
  If that value is "guestToolsRunning" then the Tools should be running.
  

• How to move virtual machines from one host to another without full VI and vMotion?

  Hello

  could you help me with a question?

  I have two installed hosts with ESXi 3.5 U5, which are connected to the shared iSCSI (Openfiler) - VMs storage are installed on the storage disk. My requirement is to have a cheap solution of DR - in case of failure of a host, I need to move and start VM on the host of work. How to achieve without going through VMware Infrastructure 3.5 and vMotion?

  I found this article:

  http://www.virtualizetips.com/2010/04/how-to-move-a-VM-without-vCenter-or-storage-VMotion/

  but RCLI needs Infrastructure of VMware ESXi does not have default CLI So, how to move VMs between hosts (of course I mean "cold" move) without byuing any additonal VMware SW? It is generally possible in my situation?

  Thank you.

  If the virtual machines are running in shared storage (two guests see the same storage iSCSI or NFS) then it's simple. If a host goes down, then look for the data store on the ESXi host work. Navigate through folders for each virtual machine, right-click on the VMX file and add to the inventory. You will then be able to turn on the virtual machine.

  To move a virtual machine from one host to another, as long as both hosts had the same processors, you can pause the VM on the single host, browse and add the virtual machine to the inventory on the second break host and the United Nations.

  If the virtual machines are on local storage, but the two hosts are connected to the same shared storage, clone virtual machines on a daily basis from local storage to shared storage. Use something like ghettoVCB http://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-8760 make the clone. In the case of a server failure, you will be able to browse the data store, add to the inventory on the shared storage and switch the cloned machine.

• How to install virtual SCSI device drivers?

  Hello

  The start or resumption of my recently updated VM Pro updated to XP (from Win2k Pro) I get a message stating that I need to install a SCSI device driver virtual for XP as such devices are not natively supported in XP (despite my not being not unaware of these devices on my system). So - I ended up finding the relevant download (one provided in the message is not incorrect) and is in the form of a folder compressed containing two .flp files. I can extract each of these files, but when I try & expand / extract the archive as a whole, I am invited to a password. I don't know what to do with these .flp files. Research on the extension, I find these are floppy disk for VMWare Fusion image files, but do not have a floppy drive on my machine. I hope that you do not have , but we still don't know what I would do with them.

  What should I do with these files? My VM seems to work very well at the moment, but I don't want to deal with those pesky startup messages correctly & not just check her "tell me again" checkbox, which is sweeping some question merger think I have with XP under the proverbial rug.

  Fusion 2.0.3 Mac OSX 10.5.6 Win XP Pro

  Kind regards

  DA.

  If your virtual machine has been configured with a floppy drive, then just change the parameters, change and to use an image, navigate to the .flp file that you downloaded.

  If your VM has not been configured with a floppy drive, then shut down/put off the power of the guest.  Change settings, add a floppy drive, and then follow the directions above.

  Now inside your comments with connected floppy image, you should be able to open Explorer, locate the drive A:.  Right-click the .inf file, and then choose install.

• Access to the BlackBerry through the USB port on the virtual machine VMWare

  I have my development environment configuration in VMWare virtual machine, and I have no problems of deployment of BlackBerry applications on a simulator that runs as another virtual machine. The problem starts when I try deploying to the device via the USB port. The address is assigned when the mode of development on the device is not accessible from the VM, but only from my host, who do me any good, since as I said my IDE is in the virtual machine. A way to solve this problem? I can still deploy to the device via wi - fi (which is btw access via different ip - one given by the network) by this can sometimes be slow depending on the strength of the signal, etc, so I prefer to be able to deploy via the USB port.

  Just in case anyone has the same problem, how to activate must, VMWare Player click on the USB icon (to the right) and choose to disconnect from the host. Connecting the USB port at the prompt. Stupid...

• How to run virtual machines on new host after reconstruction?

  Thanks for your help.

  Browse the data store, right-click on vmx for each virtual computer.  Add to the inventory.  Now, you can access and start them.
