• vSphere lab at home on systems of office for the installer of vmware FT and vma

  Hi everyone, I intend to build my VMware vsphere lab to try/learn the advanced features like VMDirectPath, fault tolerance, DPM, VMA and vCloud.

  initially I thought to buy a laptop computer with 16 GB of RAM to build my lab inside the laptop. But after some research, I got to know FT and other features will not work with nested virtualization.

  So now I am planning to buy 2 desktop computers because the server systems produce too much noise.

  Here, I'm afraid the CPU compatibility. I understand only a few processors support VT - d, FT and vma. I checked the compatibility in VMware site but VMware has not provided the compatibility of the desktop processors.

  If someone already tried successful building home lab with FT and other functions on desktop systems, please advise me.

  Intel i7-950

  AMD X 6 1090 T.

  these processors are available in the market with affordable prices. If the processor is finalized, I choose compatible main board/NIC/SAS... etc.

  Help, please.

  Thanks in advance

  I would look through the forums of vm-support Web site HCL and a best guide on unsupported hardware. Processors should not be the big problem with those stated, but the components on the motherboard will likely need replacement.

• Trying to Downoad free ESXi: Getting "VMware vSphere evaluation expired '.

  Hi all

  I have a little problem of license: I tried to download vSphere 4U1 (I especially need vSphere Windows 7 Client), but after the connection and try to download the free version, I get a on a web page that says 'VMware vSphere evaluation expired' and "Ready to buy?" tab.

  True, I had downloaded the vSphere 4 in early August and this 60-day evaluation period has expired a long time ago. But due to the problems with vDR (itself known and many negative entry in the list) I have not yet decided on the version of vSphere, I need to buy... a lot of money at stake

  So: Is there a limit on all the free data center products that a registered user can download for "free trial"? I have a few new servers available for tests and did not want to go through the installation of vSphere 4 + update to v4 U1, especially since the laptop management runs Windows 7, where - according to me - vSphere Client and update manager will not work without some pretty nasty sounding hacks.

  Thanks for your answers,

  Thomas

• Satellite A660 - 11 M WLan cannot be used after the installation of vmware 3.1.1

  I have a problem with my new laptop Satellite A660 - 11M.

  When I use some VM install VmWare Player 3.1.1 the wireless doesn't work anymore.
  When I push the button to activate the wireless, the led does not illuminate and the FN + F8 key said that the wireless is not enabled.

  I tried to uninstall VMPlayer, but the rest of the problem.
  I also tried to reinstall the Wlan driver.

  Only if I ask a recovery point before the installation of vmWare are all ok.
  You have an idea about the problem?

  Thank you

  Hello

  I know that this question. the VM (virtual machine) is NOT compatible with the Toshiba Flash Cards Support utility.
  The virtual machine affect the functionality of the FN buttons.
  Therefore, delete this system in order to use the FN keys.

• The question whether to install Wins 2012 R2 before installing VMware vSphere Hypervisor 5.5?

  I'm new with VMware.  I have a DELL T420 server without an operating system in it.  I have a question, this first step, I need to install Windows 2012 R2 Datacenter to my server DELL T420, then the next step I will download the upgrade to VMware vsphere Hypervisor 5.5 2, is that correct?   I thank in advance for your advice.

  1. you must first download ESXi (hypervisor) and install it on your server.

  : Refer:vSphere 5.5 - How to install and configure VMware ESXi 5.5 - YouTube

  2. once the ESXi installation is successful, you can create a VM and then install windows 2012 R2 in this virtual machine as GOS.

  See:How to create a VM on a VMWare ESXi host using a VSphere Client - YouTube

• VMware vSphere profile focused on service of storage AND VMware vCenter Storage Monitoring Service alerts

  Hi all

• VMWare vSphere v5.5 ESXi install errors

  Hello

  I'm trying to install VMWare vSphere, ESXi v5.5 on a machine that I've used as a Windows 2008 Server. Pretty well spec'd (core i5, 8 GB, 3.5 TB of space etc.), but it's just a generic machine with a motherboard micro ATX ASUS and so on. I use an external USB DVD drive.

  It support (or seems to load) GRUNB fails with an error of '22 '. When I changed the BIOS to AHCI settings error replaced by "Error 21".

  I tried to eliminate any problems:

  • Tested the drive and the USB on a core i3 laptop [AOK]
  • Checked hardware virtualization is enabled in the BIOS OF THE system [YES]
  • I tried vSphere 5.1 [SAME MISTAKES]

  Does anyone have ideas, what could cause this problem?

• VMware Vsphere Simulator 5.

  Hello

  My apologies if the question is redundant, but I just wanted to know if there is any Simulator available for VMWare Vsphere 5.

  I want something that I can install on my personal laptop running Ubuntu 12.04 with 3 GB of RAM or my laptop desktop running Win 7 and 4 GB of RAM.

  Intend to learn VMWare Vsphere/ESXi and improve my skills.

  A run than a search with "Simulator" in the forums and found on a single person had a similar question in the year 2011.

  It has been mentioned that you can install VMWare Workstation Trial Version etc., but can someone please direct me to a link where I can get more details?

  Hello

  There is no concept of a simulator, building a set of virtual machines to run the different components of vSphere (ESXi, vCenter Server, some 'shared storage') is the best approach, and you can run a whole environment on VMware Workstation in trial mode for 60 days.

  You will need more RAM if you want to run the bases on a single system - there is a post on my blog that has a useful info and excellent links: http://vmwaretraining.blogspot.co.uk/2011/06/building-vsphere-home-lab-for-vcpvcap.html

  Thank you

  As William, he will not be supported, but you can use the SDK Software VMware Perl quite easily on any platform of Perl (I did it with window as well).  I did specifically on Ubuntu and OS X over the years.

  Install the requirements of the module as shown in "vSphere SDK Perl Source Code installation on Linux".  In the source package, copy the folder VMware vmware vsphere-cli-distrib/lib/VMware/sharing of archive download Perl Linux SDK to your path to Perl.

  For required modules, you can use PPM, CPAN or apt get the packages.

  I ran this way for years without any problem, but this obviously isn't an official support statement

  You should be able to simply do not put a proxy during Setup.  It's there in case it is necessary to download the module dependencies.

• Smart Array controller, required for VMware vSphere Hypervisor

  I currently use VMware Server on Windows 7 for my test enviromnent.  I would like to set up a server using the VMware vSphere Hypervisor.  The server is an HP Proliant ML110 G7.  The server has 4 GB of memory, single core processor quad intel (E3-1240), Intel 82574 Gigabit NIC , and an integrated HP Smart Array B110i SATA RAID Controller.  This Smart Array B110i controller will work with the latest version of the hypervisor?  Version 4.1 documentation controller HP Smart Array under ESXi hardware required but then lists it list a Smart Array P400/256 controller under installation on supported and start of storage systems.

  As far as I can see the server itself, the Integrated NIC (NC112i) or the RAID controller are supported with ESXi (not even on older versions). I really recommend you take a look at the VMware HCL (http://www.vmware.com/resources/compatibility/search.php) or matrix of Support from HP (http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/vmware/supportmatrix/hpvmware.html)

  Regarding RAID controllers. Make sure that the controller is equipped with at least 512 MB BBWC/FBWC for a good disk performance. Addition of write cache, makes a HUGE difference.

• 'VMware vSphere 4 Essentials Bundle for 3 guests' trial

  Hello

  I have just buyed VMware vSphere 4 Essentials Bundle for 3 guests.

  I can't find a trial (maybe I'm blind?) for this product? Delivery of license takes more then 3 days (electronic delivery...?), so I wanted to download a trial version, get all this work so that I can just paste the file or license key.

  is this possible?

  Just download the free installer, use the key to the trial (register for the correct number of pin/Socket) and then simply paste in the key bought once it arrives.
