• Cannot install VMware vCenter Server on a virtual machine

  Hello world

  I'm new to the forum. I try to install the vcenter server in a virtual machine.

  Configuration of the VM: 10G VMDK, used 7G... 2G memory... guest operating system is win XP Pro.

  When I run the Setup it says:

  This installation package could not be opened!

  I have attached a JPG of the error. Can someone please!

  Kind regards.

  64 bit is not supported as a host to vCenter operating system, see the compatibility guide posted above.  I would try to mount the ISO using the client machine instead of starting from the ESX host, it could be that your DVD image is not good.

• I want to install Win 8 home in a Virtual Machine

  I intend to install the OS on a Mac, but the MS download site only allows you to download a setup.exe file and not the file ISO integer required by the virtual machine. How can I get a full installation file? I bought the software for download on the store and do not want to buy a DVD version. Can anyone help?

  You need the full version if you plan to install on a virtual machine:

  There is no full retail version of Windows 8. If you need a full version, you will need to purchase the Pro OEM Windows 8 of new eggs. To do this, install an own custom.

  Windows 8 Pro

• Cannot install XP updates in a new virtual machine

  I have vmware 8.0.4 on my work desktop and laptops computers, who have all two Win 7 with AVG antivirus. I installed XP Pro SP2 on both. When I try to install the updates I get these errors:

  Windows Update:

  0x8024400a

  Microsoft Update:

  0 x 80240036

  and this message:

  «The site has encountered a problem and cannot display the page you are trying to post...» »

  I have disabled everything I can disable AVG and I still get these errors. I can't understand what is blocking updates. Any advice would be appreciated!

  Is the Internet/network-connectivity based Virtual Machine?  If yes then it is not a question of VMware, it's a Windows XP update problem and you need to do as you would on a physical machine to fix this.  I download Windows XP SP3 for professionals (this is not downloaded through Windows updates) and install it and then see if Windows Update started working.  Otherwise Google the error messages and follow what already exists on the Internet.

• install serial number not accepted on virtual machine

  I wonder if anyone can help.  I spoke with tech support and they are not "trained" to answer this question and said that I have to post on the forums.  I'm trying to enter my serial key for Adobe CS4 software installed on a virtual machine running on a new macbook pro.  I am running windows 7.  It install correctly and works as it should in the mode of trial, but he will not accept the serial number.  I get the red next to the serial number 'X' when I get it, he did the same thing when we tried other series numbers we have.  I hope that this is a solution for this so I can use my software.  Customer support has tried to delete the cache.db file and a few other things.  Any suggestion or help would be greatly appreciated!  Thanks in advance!

  David

  in case the problem... at least as much as we could understand, anyone trying to solve this problem, has been linked to the image that we have created from our DVD media.  Under the leadership of a certain support advanced Adobe, we uninstalled the software from the computer and then downloaded the software with the help of Adobe.  By using the downloaded software, we were able to enter the serial key and install and use the software as intended.  Hope this helps someone else.  Thanks to the Adobe support!

• How to transfer a demo version of 60 days in free ESXi 4.0 or re - install free version without losing existing virtual machines?

  I was sure that I have the free version.  Help - & gt; about; He says I have VMWare Vsphere Esxi 4.0

  I have 2 existing existing computers on the server that I can't seem to British Colombia, that the 60 day demo has expired.  I thought it was free...

  How can I get a 'free' liscence key installed on the server for Vsphere, that I have now with the re - install, or lose my machines...

  or how re - install the free version while keeping my existing vm?

  any help is very appreciated!

  Thank you

  David

  When you register for the download, you should have received an email with a link to your key not expiring.  This key needs to be added to your ESXi host by going to the configuration, features licensed tab - change.

  You can also log in to the site and request a new email.

• Install the Flash drive on a Virtual Machine

  Host operating system: Linux Mint 17, Matt

  6 of VMware

  Windows XP Home SP2

  Opera 11.5

  It starts to install then says that there is a connection error when there is no. Telling me just try the same steps more still don't cut it. Either I need to know why the installer thinks there's a connection problem, or should I be able to install offline. In fact, it would be simpler and better. Oh yes, one more thing. I opt to download Google Chrome, just in case where it makes a difference.

  I need to run applications that use SWF files for video content in the program. Therefore, a browser plugin will not work for them.

  Hello

  Please try the installation program offline posted at the bottom of the Installation problems | Flash Player | Windows page in the section "problems".  Unlike Installer online who downloads and installs Flash Player silently in the background, this is the full installer and once downloaded does not connect to the internet to download anything extra.

  Please provide logs previously requested that will help to troubleshoot why the online installer does not work. I've seen several reports recently of the installer online have reported an error of connection in XP. I was not able to reproduce the error and get the logs will help us troubleshoot why what is happening.

• VCenter Server installed as a virtual machine within a ESXi servers it manages?

  Hi all.  I'm new in the world of VSphere... still in my evaluation period.

  I have only a single ESXi server running at the moment but plans to add a second later for high availability, vmotion, increase general capacity, etc.  They are / will be ESXi running on the internal storage and the virtual machines running on a shared SAN.

  Today, I installed VCenter Server 4 on a server at bottom of range/Office that I was carrying around running XP Pro x 64.

  As I was installing I read the guide installation and to my surprise, it seems to recommend that I have installed VCenter Server 4 as a virtual machine on my ESXi host.

  Now maybe I just spent too much time setting up my without new Lefthand requiring a 'witness' during the failover of one SAN to another... but I was under the impression that VCenter Server is not designed simply to host configuration, but is also designed to act as a 'witness' or to take account of quorum whenever a failure scenario occurred on one of my ESXi hosts.  I also noticed the VCenter Server features of a port "heartbeat", which I suppose one would use for the ESXi server heartbeat, but perhaps it is used for "connected mode" with other VCenter servers (I was intending to use only one since it is a small scale installation) I also felt that it would be useful enough to restore a damaged or shot ESXi host.

  So my question is, if my ESXi host dies and it is where I have VCenter Server installed, then high availability will be unable to work?  I guess there are going to be other issues with me unable to access VCenter Server while I have an ESXi host shot, too, as a greater difficulty to get the ESXi up?

  Maybe I'm wrong understand the purpose of the VCenter server... maybe it's not something that's necessary for HA, recovery, etc. and acts only as a configuration tool until something is wrong?  Or maybe I misunderstood the installation guide and they recommend only installing VCenter Server on an ESX box... they don't want this ESX box to be part of the group that manages the server?

  Finally, if indeed they recommend I install this on a ESXi host manages... would I ideally be install this for local storage on the server (where I installed ESXi) or on the SAN (where all my other virtual machines are installed)... or is it just personal preference?

  Thank you!!

  When you add hosts an active hemagglutinin vCenter cluster HA agent is installed on it.  This agent is what is actually the HA.  While necessary to add new hosts in a cluster and configure some specific parameters of vCenter vCenter's agents HA are self-sufficient and can handle HA failover so vCenter is offline.

  You must install the vCenter VM on SAN storage, so that he can use the vMotion, sVmotion, DRS, HA, functions etc. that require a SAN.

• How can I print my virtual machine XP installed on my computer Windows 7 host?

  I can't print from my virtual XP machine which is installed on my Windows 7 host operating system.

  The printer is correctly installed on my Windows 7 OS and I can print pages of test and documents through it.

  But I can't get my printer to print anything from my XP virtual machine.

  What I've tried so far:

  I tried to install my printer in my XP virtual machine as a local printer. The installation wizard installs the drivers of its own database. The icon for the printer appears in the Printers window. But the test page does not print, or it allows to print a simple text document.

  I tried to install my printer in my XP virtual machine as a printer attached to another computer on my network. To counter this, I enabled files and printers sharing on my printer to Windows 7 host operating system and then shared to the network. Then I went back to my XP virtual machine to activate the printer installation wizard to install a printer on a network. The installation wizard will search the shared network printers, but do not find anything. I have the opportunity to enter things like the address of the network printer and so on. But I have no idea what to conclude from these boxes.

  I did my best to make sure that the Windows 7 host operating system and the virtual XP machine are on the same network, which is a working group, not a homegroup. But I can have failed at that because I don't know much about networks.

  -------

  The printer is a Brother HL-5050.

  Parallel cable.

  LPT1

  This problem is not resolved. Anyone having this same problem with a parallel cable connected printer will continue to look for the solution.

  BUT he is no longer a problem I have to deal with.

  I discovered by accident that my printer has a USB port in the back. So, I went parallel to the USB cable. This allowed me to select and activate the printer in the virtual mode menu bar Windows XP special on the top edge, by clicking on the "USB" button there. Allowing the printer in XP virtual mode turns off also in the reception of Windows 7 OS. But then 'release' the printer of the XP virtual machine allows the printer under Windows 7 again. Not much for me.

• 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.

• vCenter Server 5 install in a virtual machine or not?

  Hi all.

  We have a health care environment small assisted living with a dozen sites/servers

  A server has 3 VMw4 vms on it.

  We received two new servers ESXi installed 5. They will host several virtual machines of Windows Server for most of the migration of the current VMw4.

  I want to install vCenter Server 5 to manage.

  My book of VMware by Lowe, he mentions that install the vCenter server in a virtual machine has limits.

  It mentions cold migration, cloning and editing material are not available.

  He also mentions the considerations with the help of a distributed virtual switch.

  Ufortunately that he won't go into details.

  But there seems to be benefits such as the backup server and fast food when you use a virtual machine.

  Any thoughts?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  It is one of the common design decision. now VMware recommended is to use a virtual machine.

  some of the benefits you can get are: -.

  The vCenter Server system can be revived in a cluster of high availability of vSphere

  VM resources CPU and memory can be easily resized. The vCenter Server system also benefits from vSphere Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS) cluster workload balancing.

  You can easily save or create a virtual machine as needed.

  him as a physical Machine will be some disadvantages such as:-

  To ensure availability, you must purchase and use additional software such as vCenter Server Heartbeat or a third-party clustering solution.

  You must properly size the physical machine's resources.

  You must have a separate system and use imaging software to take a snapshot of a physical machine.

• SCSI driver is missing in the virtual machine. Driver is missing in the provided website. Instructions on how to install the driver (once you find) are missing.

  I get the text following error encrypted every time that I boot Windows XP in VMWare Fusion, since I've upgraded to version 4.02 a few months ago.  So I upgraded to version 5.02 hoping the error would go, but he didn't.

  When I try to start it, it says "he has at least a virtual SCSI device installed on this virtual Windows XP computer.

  Windows XP does not include the drivers for the card SCSI BusLogic VMware Fusion uses virtual SCSI devices.
  To use these virtual SCSI devices, install the VMware driver in the virtual machine. "Download the driver of"http://vmware.com/info?id=43"."
  Once I have to dismiss the message, everything seems to work properly.  How can I make this message disappear?

  I tried to go to the useless link that is provided (http://vmware.com/info?id=43), but it takes me just for a general download for all VMWare products page.  Then I tried searching for "SCSI" but it does not have the driver, I'm supposedly dedicated research

  After doing a bit of searching around, I finally found a driver called "vmscsi - 1.2.0.4.flp ', I connect to my virtual floppy drive.  Once I did, my virtual machine wouldn't boot (I get the error "NTDLR is missing.)  I then unplugged the virtual floppy drive, and now my virtual machine starts again.  I then re-connected the drive floppy and discovered the following content:
  Disk.Tag
  Txtsetup.OEM
  vmscsi.cat
  vmscsi.inf
  smscsi.sys
  OK... Now what?  No installer?  What the hell am I supposed to do with it?  I tried a double click on all of these files and have no significant results.  When the pilot is supposed to go?  No instructions? -What VMware calls "support"?

  The VMware Tools GUI has been removed because it has now integrated with the Virtual Machine settings, however you can still use the command line.

  C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware Tools>vmwaretoolboxcmd help
  Usage: vmwaretoolboxcmd  [options] [subcommand]
  Type 'vmwaretoolboxcmd help ' for help on a specific command.
  Type 'vmwaretoolboxcmd -v' to see the VMware Tools version.

  Most commands take a subcommand.
