Internet access for virtual machines in Lab Manager
Hello
Our lab environment is configured separately from corporate network and only some public IPs are able to access the internet. How I would install machinery in the Director of the laboratory to access the internet?
For example, IP range - 64.x.x.x. Creation of a network model with these IP addresses attached to physical networks and external public would give me access to the internet?
Stan,
You would have to create a physical network that is attached to a vSwitch or Distributed Switch that can connect to this network of 64.x.x.x.
If configure you a Pool of IP, Lab Manager can manage physical network IP assignments to the virtual machines. so if the virtual machines require Internet access, then they will need to access this network (somehow).
Kind regards

is it possible to access the virtual machine when the network is down...
Hello. He... IAM wondering is it possible that we can access the virtual machine when the network is down... (Because of power outages or when the fluctuations...) ................?
Is it possible that I can configure my Virtual Machine...?
Thank you and best regards...

Hello
Not really...
For an environment hosted... If you can access the console of the host, you can always access the console of the virtual machine regardless of the State of the network outside of the console. VMware Workstation, Fusion and server all fall into this category.
For ESXi/ESX... you need a host outside to access the console of the virtual machine. ESX and ESXi not displayed graphics or VMs of their consoles and management devices. So, you need an external machine that can run the vSphere Client or access to the virtual machine via RDP, VNC according to Guest OS involved or SSH.

How to access the virtual machines to different physical network?
Hello
I'm new to ESXi, can someone tell me how can I access virtual machines on the physical network existing in case I use different IP classes? Physics of the network by using the class C IPs and I assigned IPs to virtual machines of class A? If it is possible, then, what are the steps?
In fact, I installed exchange 2010 VMs and also want to access the email accounts of physical network.
Thank you.

You mean there's no way in ESXi to configure the way so we can access the virtual machines to physical network? without third-party applications.
Because it is impossible for the various networks IP connect without a router, you must have such a device. There is really no difference in that in a pure virtual or physical environment.
You might think the ESXi host as a box with one or more servers (virtual) inside and one or more layer (virtual) two switches, just like a small server room. This means you will need to provide the same type of connectivity that you would have to a new server room with machines configured with addresses in a different IP network range.

Folder path as a VM property - for virtual machines in a paralytic
Hello
I used the new-viproperty of LucD script to create a folder for each virtual computer property in my inventory. It works perfectly well for virtual machines, but not for virtual machines in a paralytic as these do not have a 'record' in powercli property. they report a $null value.
Would be much appreciated if someone can help me to modify this script so it creates a VM property for the VMS and VMs in a paralytic?

Wonder average CPU for virtual machines
I have a supermetric that gives me the average demand of CPU for virtual machines.
It works as set below:
avgN($R40:A2055,3) / avg($R40:A2030)
R40 is the data center - A2055 is the attribute of MHz CPU demand.
A2030 is powered on virtual machines in the data center.
Is it possible for me to write this formula without having to divide it by the total number of virtual machines in the data center?
Is 'average' looks should do.
Fix.

1 or 2 processors? 32 or 64 bit? for virtual machines
I had a discussion with the network administrator about using 2 processors and OS 64-bit for virtual machines.
It uses 1 proc and 32-bit on Proliant G5 servers for virtual servers ordinary.
When it will be beneficial to use 2 procs and 64 bit?
THX.
Hello.
When it will be beneficial to use 2 procs and 64 bit?
It will be useful to use 64-bit when you have an application that you want to run 64 - bit, and it will be useful to add a second processor when you discover that a vCPU is not enough. If by 'regular' virtual servers, you're talking low-end Windows servers, then the 32-bit single vCPU approach will be generally better. Without knowing more about your applications or operating systems, it is difficult to give a more precise answer.
Why do you think that you might need for 64-bit or 2 vCPUs? Can you elaborate on what you put on foot?

Have problems connecting to the Internet after the virtual machine has crashed.
Original title: problems sudden ethernet
Hello
I'm having a problem with connecting my computer custom-made. I was with my virtual machine to run an android phone. It connected via a second wireless connection (I don't know much I just let it work). It crashed my computer and when I rebooted I had no internet.
It would also be useful to mention that I recently had a BSOD because of the virtual Manager and a driver, but I solved it.
He said that no connection is available, and there is a red cross.
So far I have tried:
A second ethernet cable - nothing. (The two wires green on the end of the PC and the end of the router).
Updated windows, but he can't because of the lack of connection.
System Restore, but it says "Windows has detected corruption of system files on Local disk (C .)» You should check the drive for errors before you can restore it.
sfc/scannow, but which translates "could not Windows Resource Protection start the repair service".
I have also reinstalled the drivers for my cable ethernet twice and nothing.
If more information is needed please ask. Thanks in advance.
Hello
In Device Manager, expand network adapters, right click on the Ethernet device and update the driver. Otherwise, identify the manufacturer, go to their website and download the latest driver.

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 5I 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.

Error recover attribute customized for Virtual Machine
Hello
I created a custom attribute TestAtt for the virtual machines by using the vSphere client. The screenshot of the configuration is attached.
Now, I need to retrieve this value programmatically in my plugin, I'm developing using c#. Here is the snippet of the same thing. For some reason any below appeal fails by saying that the attribute is not found. Even when I used the DoesCustomizationSpecExists, I'm wrong. I am not getting any exception.
I'm doing this in the right way?
CustomProperty CustomizationSpecItem = new CustomizationSpecItem();
customProperty = VIM_SERVICE. GetCustomizationSpec (SERVICE_CONTENT.customizationSpecManager, "TestAtt");
Kind regards
Sudhir
You use the bad managed object to retrieve the custom fields. The customizationManager is used to deal with the customization of the guestOS using Linux quick Prep or Windows Sysprep.
You want to use is customFieldManager - this is a vSphere SDK for Perl script that shows you how - addVMCustomField.pl

User access to virtual machines
I have a VMware ESXi hosting VMs used by different users.
Access life VMs users Remote Desktop.
I need to allow users to access the console in order to create snapshots and return to clichés, but I don't want them to change the VM settings or get new virtual machines: is there a directive to set up users with limited user rights?

You have the right tool: VI Client 2.5.
