How to install VMplayer 3 network for virtual machines to comminicate with each other?

People,

Hello. I use VMPlayer 3.

SE host: Windows 7
Comments to: Windows XP and Oracle Linux 5

I need to set up the network and activate Windows XP communicate with Oracle Linux 5.

I followed this tutorial http://www.vmware.com/support/ws5/doc/ws_devices_serial_2vms.html to configure 2 virtual machines in Windows 7 host machine.

I tried to test 2 virtual machines in the way as below:

In Linux, [user@localhost ~] $ping WindowsXP_HostName
Release: Unknown host WindowsXP_HostName


At the Windows XP command prompt:
C:\ping localhost.localdomain
Its release: ping localhost 127.0.0.1 with 32 bytes of data...
Reply from 127.0.0.1: bytes = 32 time = 2ms TTL = 128


He meets a few times and then disconnected by itself. It seems that Windows XP is ping itself and not Linux server. The host name of the Linux server is 'localhost' as well. It is a kind of confusion for me.


From the information above, we can see that 2 VMs cannot connect between them.

Can any folk provides a tutorial or example or case study to set VMPlayer 3 allowing 2 virtual machines communicate with each other by step?

Very grateful in advance.

In the guest machine, all I see is click on VMplayer-> VM-> settings-> network-> Network adapter Connection-> select Bridged: directly connected to the physical network. After that, nothing to keep.

That's it for the network card in Virtual Machine of its parameters, and the rest is done to each guest at the guest OS level.

In Windows 7 host machine, I don't see anything first.

What we need to do is to assign 3 IP addresses to 3 machines: Win 7, Win XP Guest and Linux host.

Why the world can't bring you up Google in a browser and type, the ip static windows xp, then static ip rhea of windows 7 and finally static ip.  As I have already said there are more then enough tutorials on the Internet about how to configure a static IP address by a given operating system then I suggest you Google it!  It makes absolutely no sense to write the instructions step by step for you when there are already dozens of tutorials available on the internet.

  • How to create two separate networks in ESX that can communicate with each other with 2 x bear?

    Hello
    Just want to know a fundamental question concerning the configuration of my ESX host of singlebox with several vswitch and two teddy bears,
    What is the definition or use of the network Label and ID of Port? Yes VLAN, I know what it's meant for the physical world.
    My goal here is to
    1. create several vSwitch with much 4 VM on the two vswitch and it communicate somehow vswitch0 and vswitch1 happen? I need to plug the switch of pNIC2 for communication can / must travel through the network cable in my ESX?
    2. how to force all traffic Vmthe in a vswitch to enter a virtual machine that runs as a router VM and then talk to the other router vswitch VM? is this possible?
    Thank you.

    I do not know if I understand perfectly, but I often have to create isolated networks.

    In this case, there is only one NETWORK card, but it works with two, one on each switch. vSwitch0 can communicate with the outside world via the vmnic0. vSwitch0 and vSwitch1 are connected by the virtual router of pfsense. The virtual machines on the portgroup private connect to the world outside and any other VM on the portgroup VM network via the pfsense router. To access computers virtual private Portgroup requires a VPN connection via the pfsense router. This is a completely isolated network. With an additional uplink on vSwitch1, you can connect to other physical devices.

  • Two virtual machines to communicate with each other - intent an SMS Lab for test deployment?

    Hi friends ,.

    I am a new user and would like your help pretty desperately. The scenario is that I want to implement a SMS Lab to deploy the application from the server to a client and test the application. I have all the necessary knowledge to the packaging of application is concerned, and would like to help as much as VMWare is concerned.

    I created two virtual machines and one of them will be configured as a server and the other will be the client. I created a team with these two machines in it. I am trying to ping from one machine to the other and its does not work. I only use the method of configuration host. The idea is simply to make the two systems communicate so that I can finish the entire configuration and use the same SMS deployment lab.

    -First of all, I'm new to all this so I would like to know whther to everything I do is correct and what is the largest possible?

    -What I have to do something else to make sure that those two communicate about someother or any other configuration software is necessary?

    I would like to ask you guys to be a little more specific are you when you help others that I need you guys ore than a person who is used to working on VMWare.

    And just so you know if it helps, I use VMWare Workstation 6.0.

    What you are doing is reasonable.  Both of your virtual machines have an IP address on the same subnet?  In general, the scenarios no-ping, the first thing to check is the firewall in the guest computers.  Have you checked that allows ping traffic?  If it is disabled?

  • How to install vmware tools in a virtual machine running in the drive on an Ubuntu host?

    I have a host of Ubuntu (Ubuntu LTS 14.04.2)

    I have a virtual of Fedora (4.0.4 - 301.fc22.x86_64) and I would like to install vmware tools in the virtual machine.

    When I select the player VirtualMachine-> reinstall VMware Tools...

    I get a prompt in a box on the screen.  It is said:

    The following software are available for download:

    VMware Tools for Linux version 9.9.3

    What do you do?

    X Cancel |  Download and install

    Of course I choose to download and install (kind of silly question - why I want to cancel?)

    So instead of download the tools I want to install, it says:

    Your permission is required to install an update to VMware.

    Please enter the root password to move forward.

    Password: __________

    not serious.  Now, he's looking for what root password?  The virtual machine or the host?

    I have try the virtual machine and it works-not "incorrect password... try again."

    ... well Ubuntu is not a root user.  So, I try the password for the user with root privileges

    "incorrect password... try again."

    Then, he does not.

    Not very satisfying.

    The instructions that I found in my research right you will say to take the step to obtain the Tools package then (well, nothing of the rest of it is important if the tools are not available to me).

    Suggestions?  Advice?

    The required password is for the host.

    A workaround of functions is "sudo su -" of ubuntu host, then start vmplayer from the root prompt.  You must browse the virtual machine since the user doesn't have a history of openness yet... but then there is no prompt asking for a password when you try to download the tools.

  • How to install the software on a virtual machine?

    Hi, I'm new to the virtual machines.  I have a physical server running windows 7 pro 32 bit, and I set up a virtual machine running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit only.  I created so I can run MS Exchange Server 64.  I have a .iso for Exchange Server file, but I can't figure how to get it in the virtual machine.  Please explain or direct me to a good tutorial, thank you.

    In this case, either use the "shared folders" feature or share the folder on the host computer with files and map it as a network drive in the comments.

    Another option - although that do not know if it works in VMware Server - is to drag & drop the files from the host to the virtual computer.

  • public network for virtual machines, private storage and the service console?

    Hello

    So far I had a pretty small facility with 2 servers with 4 physical network adapters each running ESX 3.5, a small box of EqualLogic SAN to shared storage and a few virtual machines on our network of regular reinforcement, routed, not on a private.   The network config was really simple.  I just put everything on real IP addresses on our network of building.

    Now I want to move the SAN and the traffic on a private service console network, but I don't know how to do this.

    Right now I use 2 NETWORK cards on each server:

    vmnic0 is configured on vSwitch0 and has the network of the VM on it that all my use of VMS to talk to the outside world, and it also has the Service Console that uses Virtual Center and I use ssh to it.

    vmnic1 is configured on vSwitch1 and a VMKernel Port and also a Service Console Port for iSCSI Software to talk to my SAN.  (never been clear on why both are needed to talk to the SAN, but doctors say they are)

    My plan is to set up a vSwitch2 and bind it to vmnic2 and implemented a VMKernel Port and the Service Console Port for software iSCSI on the 10.x.x.x network, set up my new (larger) SAN box on the 10.x.x.x network and simply use Storage vMotion to move virtual machines to the new storage space.  As soon as I did this, I would like to not use the Service Console on vSwitch2 and not a Console Service at all on vSwitch0.  Is it possible to delete the one on vSwitch0 and just use a new vSwitch2 for Virtual Center and ssh access?

    So my proposed configuration would be:

    vSwitch0: VM network only, used by the VM guests for oriented public access network, no construction of Network Service Console, linked to vmnic0

    vSwitch1: superfluous once I do storage vMotion of everything on my old SAN, will eventually remove and pair vmnic 1 with vmnic0, linked to vmnic1

    vSwitch2: VMKernel and Service Console on the network 10.x.x.x, used to access the new SAN, used by Virtual Center to access the ESX, used to SSH in to ESX on private network, associated vmnic2

    If it works?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    VMkernel ports cannot live on the same subnet. So if you have 3 vmkernel ports say: vMotion, iSCSI and NFS. You really need 3 subnets. 1 for each vmkernel port.

    Otherwise how does he know all send properly?

    Hello

    In order to obtain the performance counter for a managed entity, you must have following:

    1. get the managed object to the PerformanceManager object reference

    2 get the ProviderSummary object for this entity. It also helps determine if the current or summary statistics are supported.

    3. get performance metrics available for the entity. In a given time interval, the statistics will be available for these measures.

    4. the performance statistics for the entity desired metrics extracted from the step above queries

    5 examine the returned data object to get the statistics.

    Attached, is an example of Java, which takes the name of the virtual machine, run the steps above and print the available counters and their stats. You can take the help of this example and can improve to get statistics for all the virtual machines in your host application.

    Hope this information is useful.

    This weekend, I'll upgrade my environment at 3.5 update 4 and, in doing so, I need to upgrade all of the vmware tools install and am looking for a way to do it without connect to each virtual machine.  I found some posts that are not too encouraging (upgrade to vShere and via updatemanager or change the settting on the virtual machine to check an update of tools when it boot) I was looking for a script or something that's not going to be too demanding.

  • 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.

  • Question on networks of Virtual Machine

    I have a host machine running Windows 7. I installed VMware player and I create a virtual computer running Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.5 (almost identical to the version 5.5 of Red Hat). In the end I will be installing an application on the virtual machine that is not compatible with DHCP. So, when I install OEL 5.5 I need to manually provide information from network devices (IP address, primary DNS, subnet mask and host name). I've done it before on successfully on a material physical but never before on a virtual machine. On my first attempt I was wrong and my web browser running on the virtual machine can connect to the Internet.

    My instructions say "set the gateway information based on the IP Address of the gateway router. I wonder if this is correct in view of the virtual machine.

    On the machine host, when I run the ipconfig command in the DOS window I see a mask of address and the IP subnet for the host, and I see two additional network adapters for VMware (VMnet1 and VMnet8). The three entries (for example, the host VMnet1 and VMnet8) have the same subnet mask value and different IP addresses (first two segments of the IP addresses are the same, third and fourth segments are different).

    My question is, what are VMWare network cards and I have to pay attention to these IP addresses when I manually configure networking on the virtual machine?

    VMware Player provides essentially 3 types of network connections:

    • 'The bridge' - directly connected to your router
    • "Host-Only' (VMnet1) - limited to the host and the virtual machines network
    • "NAT" (VMnet8) - network address translation

    VMnet1 and VMnet8 virtual cards that allow the host to communicate with the virtual machines and vice versa.

    Depending on if your virtual machine should be accessible from other systems, you can consider using (in - and outgoing) Bridged or NAT (outgoing mail). With Bridged networking, addresses are usually provided by your router/DHCP server. For NAT, the address of the gateway/DNS is 192.168.x.2. Since the VMware Server DHCP internal for NAT and Host-Only uses 192.168.x.128... 254 for dynamic addressing, you want to select a static address in the 192.168.x.3... range 127.

    The easiest way to find out how to correctly configure the network, must first set the operating system to DHCP, note gatherings settings and then just choose another IP address when you configure static settings.
