Impossible to allocate additional processors (virtual machine has 8 virtual processors, but the host only supports 4)

• Virtual machine has 12 virtual processors, but the host only supports 8?

  Hi all I am using ESX 5.1 and have a machine Windows 2012 R2 Standard of virtual (vmx-09) comments that I'm moving to 8 processors to 12 processors.  But when I turn on the virtual machine after changing the UC 12 I get the error message

  "Virtual Machine has 12 virtual processors, but the host only supports 8. The number of virtual processors can be limited by the selected guest OS for the virtual machine or the granting of licenses for the host".

  Now, I know that 2012 R2 Standard Windows can handle 12 processors and I thought that ESX 5.1 could also, but I'm wrong?  This is the Standard of vSphere license 5.  Thank you!

  Hello

  vSphere 5.1 Standard license has a 8 vCPU per VM limit.

  Company = 32 vCPU

  Business + 64 vCPU

  You must upgrade to vSphere 5.5. This can be done with your vSphere license 5, as it is for all versions 5.X of vSphere and vCPU limit has been deleted in 5.5.

  So you can have as many vCPU per VM that your host has logical cores.

• Virtual machine has 8 virtual processors, but the host only supports 4... ?

  Hello

  My setup is a VSphere cluster with 4 guests each with:

  E5450 3.00 Ghz Dual Xeon Quad & 32 GB of Ram.

  I run a number of virtual machines, mainly Windows 2003 Server Enterprise. Most of them is running on 2 or 4 virtual processors.

  I tried to create a new virtual machine with virtual cpu 6 or 8 and 16 GB of ram. When I tried to turn on the virtual machine, I got the message below:

  Virtual machine has 8 virtual processors, but the host supports only 4. The number of virtual processors can be limited by the OS, etc...

  Now, I checked my licenses and they are for each host that I have:

  Company of VSphere 4. 1-6 cores per processor. 2 cpu by assigned host.

  Thus, it cannot be a problem with the license...

  Any ideas?

  Hello and welcome to the forums.

  The Enterprise Plus edition is required for vSMP 8 channels.  You can check in the vSphere editions comparison.  The Enterprise edition will be limited to 4 vCPUs.

  The 6 cores per processor refers to the ESX host itself and directly relate to the SMP virtual machine.

  Good luck!

• Error message: «the virtual network on the host computer drivers are incompatible...» »

  Just bought a new computer that is running Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit.

  I installed VMWare Workstation 6.5.1 build 126130.

  I copied on a machine virtual from the old computer (running Windows XP Pro and VMWare Workstation 5.0.0 build 13124). I improved this VM Workstation 6.5. This virtual machine is currently running Windows XP Pro.

  When I run the virtual machine on the new computer, I get the following error message:

  "The virtual network on the host computer drivers are incompatible with the installed application of VMWare. Version expected 5. Please reinstall the product. Virtual device Ethernet0 will start disconnected. »

  Note that the virtual machine runs; I don't have any network capacity.

  I read the thread http://communities.vmware.com/thread/186731, who seems to have the same problem. He had installed 6.5 on 5.5; When he uninstalled and deleted all of the directories, and then reinstalled everything went well.

  I don't have any product VMware existing on the computer that would cause this type of conflict.

  So, what should I try to fix this?

  Thank you

  If you want to install only vmnetadapter, open cmd as admin in vmware workstation dir and run;

  "rundll32 setupapi, InstallHinfSection VMnetAdapter1.Install 128% CD%\netadapter.inf"

  You can also repeat for vmnetadapter8.

  If it does not run as above

  "vnetlib - install devices.

• Server has 80 logical processors, but I can only use 8 cores for a virtual machine

  We have a host of ESXi 4.1 with four 10 processors and we want to give a VM 20 vCPUs for a test, but I can choose only 2 virtual Sockets with 4 cores per socket or 1 virtual socket with 8 cores. What is the maximum I can do? I'll attach screenshots so you can see what I'm looking at.

  With vSphere 4.1 eight-way virtual SMP is the maximum that you can configure with the Enterprise Plus license. With vSphere 5.1 the maximum has been increased to 64 channels for businesses more (32 channels for the company).

• upgrading processor on the host ESXi5

  I'm about to upgrade the processor on a Dell T100, which has installed on hypervisor ESXi5.  There are also 2 Windows VMs.   I wondered what would happen to the virtual machines, once the host processor is upgraded.   Do I need to remove the vCPUs and also to re-install VMtools or the upgrade would not affect virtual machines?

  You should not need modify the virtual machine settings, unless you have configured the CPU affinity or your new processors have fewer cores required by the virtual machine. However, as the model/type of processor is seen by the virtual machine, the virtual machines Windows may require reactivation.

• Virtual LAN with guests and the host only

  Hello

  I have a win server 2008 r2 host and a couple of virtual machines.

  I want to create a VLAN that contains the host and guest of the virtual machine. I intend to host the domain controller.

  I put the network connection from the guest to "host-only '.

  Then I tried ping between the guest and the host. Ping fails. "request time out" @host and "destination host unreachable'@guest.

  Firewall is turned off on both.

  What could be the problem? Is there another way to reach my goal?

  Kind regards

  Dembele.

  Did you stop the firewall service, or you have turned off the firewall? Stopping the service does not work.

  In any case, take a look at for example example 4 in the http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947709/en-us for how to configure ICMP (ping) settings.

• Error al licenciar esx 3.5, virtual center of the host y

  Hola

  I have 2 esx 3.5 servidores y Virtual Centre of the United Nations.

  In each of esx, Guerra el .lic (single host) he is ok, appears as licenciado (es standard esx).

  Instalo UN virtual center y al instalar doy el fichero .lic Québec he generated in the web of vmware (centralized).

  VOY a cada esx y pongo ip del Centre virtual donde pone 'use license server', me dice algo asi como no hay to licenses validad if the doy tr o no, the digo if, pero no licenciado appears.

  He desinstaldo y vuelto a instalar el servidor of licenses, releido el archivo .lic... no hay manera.

  También al of ido he virtual center a "administration", he marcado "change host...". ', Center Management Server virtual y ahi, pero nada. If Quebec me appears ahi al dar al oton "administration", then b has the 'licenses' las features pestana y en 'virtual center foundation manager' in 'cost' pone server 1, remaining pone cero, y pone total 1.

  El host appears como desconectado al anadirlo al virtual Center try not there as none is can por las licenses.

  Saludos

  If el otro no you already licenciar lo're porque el vCenter no tiene fired para asignarle. Of how many CPUs are you fired? How many has released there? How many you is? ESTOS datos los puedes ver en el servidor of licenses y con the utility of licenses.

  We must PD.

• Sharing network of Windows 7 64-bit problem: other machines may very well write, but the readings are extremely slow.

  I tried to access to the shared both directory a Vista and XP machine via cable connections and wireless to my Win 7 64 bit machine on the part and it is extremely slow to read, but not written.  Not only the directory never takes show all thumbnails, and then open a file that is a couple mb in size as a photo takes more than a minute.  However, if I try to write the same file sharing, it takes only 5 seconds.  This fine all worked until I went from the version release candidate for the final version a few weeks ago.  Shared directories exist on another partition for the relocation does not have their effect.

  Maybe it helps diagnose the problem... I just make a copy of a picture of 4 MB on the part of win 7 on my win xp desktop and it took about 1 minute.  I renamed the file on my desktop and tried to write to the share and it took 5 seconds .  Now, it's strange.  So, this is the bed that would take forever.  The Scriptures are fine, which also explains why my nightly backups on the part of win7 are very good.

  I have a machine to hit the share by using the name of the computer and the other using the ip address.  Both show the same problem...

  I also tried to access files using a mapped network drive.

  I can take a 4 MB file and just copy it on my local desktop and it takes about a full minute.  However, written the same file or even another file of the same size as the part only takes about 5 seconds.

  I ran the Windows 7 network troublshooter last night and used the troubleshooter for incoming connections and he says that it found a problem but that he could not fix and he really had nothing to help me.  But I think he sent the information in Microsoft... not sure.  Next time, I'm at home, I'll run again and try to put all the gross results that I could not understand in this thread.

  I've also updated my driver for the network card and redone permissions and actions several times.  The only thing that I can also say that something can highlight, it is that when I was using the RC of windows 7, I don't have this problem at all.  It was my first installation of Windows 7.  I reinstalled from the final version and all of these files already exist on another partition on the same drive.  I just had to move my public and directories user space on the D: partition and share everything.  Maybe the new facility with something on the existing structures of the file works well with the new facility of the former?  But this does not explain why a new directory and file that create displays the same behavior.  I'm thinking out loud a bit to see if it helps that anyone think that anything...

  I thought about it!

  At least for me, it was a setting in the Advanced tab of the network adapter.  I have a Realtek Gigabit network card and one of the places must have been missed incorrectly.

  I changed the 2 following settings to "disabled", and he immediately started working very well.

  Disabled IPv4 Checksum Offload
  People with disabilities large send Offload (IPv4)

  I have a suspicion that among recent updates of Microsoft for this driver he missed bad... but it was this or the latest driver from Realtek.

  Update:

  In other research I have narrowed it down to make it just the Large Send Offload value.  Is located on "activated" whenever I update the driver Realtek to the latest version.  If I then go and set it to "Disabled", everything works fine.

• Virtual ODBC to the host

  Player Version 5, hosted under Vista, under WinXP SP3

  I have a MySQL database running on the host of Vista that I want to connect from within the virtual operating system using ODBC.

  I can connect to a database running on an external server on the local network, but I can't find a way to connect to the database on the host computer.

  All suggestions will be welcome.

  Welcome to the community - because you can connect to an external host I'd be willing to bet the question with the Vista Firewall blocks connectivity.

• Time Machine has decided to completely replace the four years of TC backups

  I had four full backups Time Machine of my iMac to my Time Capsule. A couple of weeks ago, I replaced my iMac with a new. Transfer backups has been flawless, worked fine and regular backup recovery continued as before. Then yesterday...

  My iMac gave me a message that essentially says that a thorough examination showed my backups were OK, but they all had to be replaced by a completely new iMac backup everything. I said OK. That backup has taken from one day to the next. This morning, I found the new overall backup was available, and I could recover my files, so this seems OK. Now, however, Time Machine says that it's going to save 145 GB (almost all my storage) again. Unless it's just stuck, saying that it is done, but actually does nothing. Everyone knows this? Should I cancel this new full backup or it means that I'll lose the only backup made last night?

  Any suggestions will be appreciated.

  You should NOT have continued using the old backup once you have migrated your files to the new iMac.

  The current situation is that the backup is damaged or there simply is not enough space to do a new backup. Neither TM remove enough files to continue to operate.

  If you want to keep your old backups. Go to airport utility and use the archive function.

  

  You will need to plug a USB stick formatted properly capacity equal to TB. It will then copy the content of the TC on the disc.

  Then, you delete the drive... a quick erase is only a minute or two... and then start a new backup.

• Portege M100 with PM 1, 2 processors, but the only race on 598 MHz

  Please help, I have 10 pcs M100 and 7 of them have no setting in the Bios to "Dynamic CPU frequency setting" (all the CPU speed, still weak, still strong, dynamic). The laptop which do not have this setting to always operate at 598 MHz I have already check with Sisoft Sandra and in windows system properties. Properties always show that computers laptops Pentium-M 1, 2 GHz 598 MHz. no different between running with the mains or battery adapter.

  Other one with dynamic CPU frequency setting, can dynamically adjust processor clock. They can function normally to 1200 MHz.

  Hello

  The dynamic mode of the CPU frequency is available in Toshiba HWSetup.
  There you can switch between mode dynamically switchable, still high and low fashion.

  Please check!
