HOWTO downgrade ESXi5.1 to ESXi5.0 to fix the bug of passthrough PCI card

Hello

I had this problem configuration passthrough on ESXi 5.1 for a winNT 4.0 VM.

http://blog.Michael.Kuron-Germany.de/2012/10/VMware-ESXi-5-1-0-799733-breaks-PCI-passthrough/

So I applied the update on my ESXi5.1 to ESXi510-201310001, is not the problem.

So try to downgrade to ESXi 5.0 by vmkernel re-setup, the installation process is blocked (it no disk to install on)... Maybe what esxi 5.0 is unable to see ESXi5.1 formatted drive.

* What to do to solve the problem of passthrough? (not enough memory to install ESXi5.5 < 4GB)

* How can I install ESXi5.0 on my ESXi5.1 installation.

Thanks for help

Thank you all for your help,

I just want to share that ESXi 5.5 must > = 4 GB to install, but does not need 4 GB to operate.

I added RAM memory in my server to install ESXi5.5 (solved the problem of PCI passthrough) and removed this extra RAM later... and it works perfectly.

Thank you

  • Incompatibility of the thumbprint SSL in Remote Console on the new ESXI5.1 server with the same name as the old

    I use the vSphere Client Desktop for remote access to a VMware host if SSH tunneling. Basically, I aim at the customer 'localhost' and it is redirected via the SSH tunnel on the server at the other end.   I usually always could access the things just fine, but recently, I replaced the remote server with a new one.  Off the old, I changed my SSH tunnel to point to the new server.  The client is connected correctly, and I can see the virtual machine and work very well with the host country.  However, if I try to open a remote console, I get an error saying "failed to check SSL for 'mylocalmachinename.domain.com' due to incompatibility of fingerprint digital host: stored fingerprint '< checked again footprint esxi host >' does not imprint of cert" < imprint of mystery which does not correspond to a new host * or * former > ' I still find from this certificate thumprint!  I can get remote consoles on those virtual machines to machines that are the on the host, but not this remote workstation.  This * feels * like a sort of updated certificate cached somewhere, but I can't find of it empty.  I checked the registry and the thumbprint for the remote server is correct.  The part of remote console of the vsphere client there is thumprint own cache somewhere?

    MEH.  Response proved to be something completely independent and stupid.  There is a process running in my system that was also listening on port 443.  Why it intervened with the virtual console only and not the main customer I have no idea, but stopping did the trick.  It was another application I had installed some time ago and off it, I realized that I don't think that I actually * tried * run a console on the old vmware remote host because I installed this application.  It has probably been broken for a while now and I barely noticed.    So... Yes... too bad.

  • Downgrade from Windows 10 in order ot activate the product key

    I tried to update to Windows 10 on my new T450s. However, I made this from a USB key, I used on my other computers. So I wiped the passage of Windows 7 to the reader directly, without the activation key for product to be upgraded. My problem now is either setting so I can activate Windows 10 or demote. I tried both without success. I can't get the part of Lenovo Recovery from my hard drive I downgrade to Windows 7 or 8.1.

  • Can downgrade you Windows 7 to Windows XP using the Windows 7 license?

    I did a search on this topic, and it doesn't seem to be an answer to this.

    We are a business in the OEM version of sale of the Windows 7 Professional there is a customer who wishes to downgrade to Windows XP Professional

    It is said that the OEM Windows 7 Professional version has the option to downgrade to Windows XP.

    I also found an article that Microsoft extended this downgrade to 2020

    http://www.Computerworld.com/s/article/9179109/Microsoft_extends_Windows_XP_downgrade_rights_until_2020

    At the moment I have installed Windows XP from scratch and I want to activate Windows XP by using the Windows 7 Professional license.

    Is this possible?

    7 eligible for Downgrade Windows OEM versions

    It is listed on the Microsoft Web site - http://www.microsoft.com/oem/en/licensing/sblicensing/pages/downgrade_rights.aspx

    Only certain versions of OEM Windows 7 include the right to downgrade:

    * Windows 7 Professional and Windows 7 Ultimate includes the right to downgrade to Windows Vista business and Windows Vista Edition full.
    * Windows 7 Professional and Windows 7 Ultimate includes the right to downgrade to Windows XP Professional, Windows XP Tablet PC Edition or Windows XP x 64 Edition.
    * Other OEM of Windows 7 versions (for example, Windows 7 Home Basic Edition and Windows 7 Home Premium) do not include downgrade rights.

    If you are a system integrator, you will need to provide the separate license of Windows XP. You can't actually use the Windows 7 product key to activate Windows XP.

  • Re: Several questions about the Satellite A305-S6825

    I bought the Toshiba A305 S6825 with Vista Home Premium in recent weeks and have a few questions, I hope someone can answer.

    #1-I am only using the Toshiba and wonder why I keep getting this permission UAC to pop up. Is this something that everyone? Can I turn off no problem cause (security)? (I asked this question before, but still puzzled as to the is should or should not allow the UAC.)

    #2-I don't want the Defender made auto update. How can I do a manual update for Defender?

    #3-Pourquoi is so low when its DVD playback? I have the sound at 100%! Or is it something that everybody knows?

    #4-I watched updates for Windows and two in the update/download option appeared. What I have to download them? They (and other optional updates/downloads) will keep appearing?

    #5-I recorded last week and wonder if there is anywhere online, I can tell if I'm registered? Also, how can I find my customer account number? I (believe if you have a Technical Support question, you must enter your account/customer number).

    Thank you.

    (1) there is a new feature in Vista. For more information, please see the Microsoft Vista website

    (2) do you mean the Microsoft Windows Defender?
    If so, check this:
    http://www.Microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/support/howto/default.mspx

    (3) check if all volume controllers would be max. You can find this in Control Panel-> sound control

    (4) Windows updates are always recommended because they fix the bug and the security of the OS lacks

    (5) where do you register this laptop? As far as I know it is a portable American and cannot be registered on the Toshiba European pages.

  • Quenstion fast VM network on ESXi5


    Hi all

    I am bit confused traffic network within the same esxi host, vm

    We have 3 ESXi5 and each of the ESXi5 has 1 vswitch and 5 groups of ports vm for VMs on this vswitch networks, each vm network has VLANs on that... so if 2 vm is on a vlan different, but on the same ESXi will network traffic will pass throught rising or not? I believe that traffic will increase to uplinks, I'm just on this?

    I know not for sure about network traffic because same subnet / vlan between virtual machines on the same host does not use uplinks

  • Possible to downgrade the operating system?

    Hello experts,

    My Macbook is a 13 "early 2009 (Core 2 Duo 2.0). I have 6 GB of RAM (recently installed the last 2 GB).  Currently, the operating system is OS X 10.11.3.  I think that since this OS has been installed (a few months ago) the machine has slowed down considerably.  "Outputs page" is almost always up.  I re - often starts to get "page outs" to reset, but they will soon get back to the top.  Almost any process bothers me a lot of activity "beachball".  My main use for this computer uses iPhoto to show slide shows to various groups (I have not found that the Photos should be for various reasons).

    I know that this is considered a 'old' machine, but since it is my secondary computer I would not spend the money on a complete replacement.  Is it possible to go back to an earlier version of Mac OS X? That could accelerate or put less strain on, this Macbook?  If I could go back to 10.10 or 10.9 How would I do it?

    Thank you

    Your computer will be not a faster were no you downgrade OS X. There's nothing wrong with El Capitan. Page Outs increase because you don't have enough RAM and try to run too many processes simultaneously.

    If you want to demote to an increase in performance, and then wipe the drive and install Snow Leopard.

  • Downgrade from Vista to XP

    I bought a toshiba laptop eight months ago, it came with vista and I don't like it. I want to downgrade to XP. (I'm sick of the xplorer and blue screen crashes! And what--this with the commissioning takes forever? I don't even have one of those gadgets turned on...)

    Does anyone know how to go back to XP or if it's possible? Of course, I don't want to buy it! On the microsoft Web site, looks like I shouldn't even communicate with them if the software is bundled with the laptop. See you soon.

    Hello

    Unfortunately theres no option to require Microsoft or toshiba, a genuine Windows XP CD. The only way to downgrade to XP is to get a new copy, including the license and download the drivers on the toshiba site. (Please check first if there is even the drivers for your available XP machine..).

    It is the fact.
