• change the camera Flash Mode without rebooting the viewfinder,

  Hi, is it possible to change the flash of the camera mode without having to restart the viewfinder?

  Thank you!

  void CameraTest::changeFlashMode()
  {
      if(currentFlashMode==CameraFlashMode::Off)
      {
          currentFlashMode=CameraFlashMode::On;
      }
      else if (currentFlashMode==CameraFlashMode::On)
      {
          currentFlashMode=CameraFlashMode::Auto;
      }
      else if(currentFlashMode==CameraFlashMode::Auto)
      {
          currentFlashMode=CameraFlashMode::Off;
      }
  
      cameraSettings->setFlashMode(currentFlashMode);
      camera->applySettings(cameraSettings);
          camera->open();
  
  }
  

  When I change the settings of QML, the viewfinder of the camera doesn't have to be restarted. I can't do it on C++, and if it does not restart without the last line, so I hope someone else can jump in and help.

  Good luck!

  Edit: I' read part of the API of the camera, and nothing not said that this

  // Use the camera pointer to get
  // the current settings.
  cameraObj->getSettings(settings);
  
  // You must cast newFlashMode to a CameraFlashMode::Type
  // to pass it to the setFlashMode function.settings->setFlashMode(CameraFlashMode::Type(newFlashMode));
  cameraObj->applySettings(settings);
  

  will force a reboot of the viewfinder.

• install Vmware Tools without rebooting

  We need to update the VMware Tools automatically without a reboot. The reboot will be during a security patch deployment.

  What is the procedure for that. ?

  Check out http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1018377 for command-line syntax, or manually, use the Upgrade of interactive tools and choose not to restart. Automatic upgrade tools will restart without asking for confirmation.

• Manager Update on the VMware host updated

  I have two VMware hosts with vCenterServer running in a virtual machine on a host.  Manager of update is loaded and it works very well.

  I would like to be updated (install patches) the host who has VCenterServer on this.  Technical support said that he could not tell me that it was OK to make a staging of the update with UpdateManager on the host.  My plan was to push updates on, then use vSphere client to manually restart the host that is home to the VCenterServer.  It makes sense that it would work, but the tech told me to create a second vCenterServer on the other host.  It's a lot of work.

  Anyone has successfully done what I was planning to do?  I look at UpdateManager patch the first host, it seems that Update Manager pushes updates to the host, and then goes into maintenance mode and restarts.  Why not push updates, then restart manually?

  Any other suggestions or ways to do from the console?

  You can update the hosts through command-line if you stop vcenter.

• Run a virtual machine with a graphical interface on a host without GUI

  Hallo

  I want to install a simple Windows 7 for some tasks bit where I need Windows on my server Ubuntu 14.04. This server has no GUI (no X) and should have any.

  Already, I've installed the virtual Windows machine on my workstation to 12, so I would just copy the vmdk on my linux server and run it, maybe put something in the vmx file.

  But I do not know is that it's all means possible.

  Is it?

  Is there any player or any application for ubuntu VMware when there is no X system (on ubuntu), where I can run virtual machines with GUI inside?

  Maybe another virtualization tool, vmware not?

  I think that this exact question already somewhere, but I haven't found much question where comments lacking a GUI, but not the host.

  I need a guest-gui on a host without gui (where I have only the terminal).

  So maybe it's not possible at all, so please tell me a 'no', so I won't expect more

  Thank you to

  Frank

  EDIT: oh, this seems to be another question unanswered it is too difficult or too stupid?

  Hi Frank,.

  Now that would be stupid, having a text Installer, and then not allow the virtual machine to run. I think it should work, but you must pass the nogui option.

  Vmrun help:

  beginning

  (Supported only on teams

  Workstation.)

  Starts a virtual machine (.vmx file) or team (file .vmtm).

  The default graphical user interface option starts the machine in an interactive way,

  What is necessary to display a user interface of VMware.

  Nogui option suppresses the user interface,

  including start-up, to allow dialog box not interactive

  writing scripts.

  [gui | nogui]

  refer to the manual of vmrun: VIX API Documentation

  Edit: hmm... Now, I see that you have already tried the nogui option. You might be able to install the package libxinerama, but he could hang out in a lot of dependencies.

  FWIW, vSphere is pretty much what you describe a system not GUI to run GUI invited, so it shouldn't be a problem at all.

  Unfortunately, I don't have a host linux without X installed handy here, so can't test here without the implementation of a server without head myself.

  You can also try to run the client via the command vmware:

• Cannot access [\\vmware-host\shared files], no drive z: on W10 visitors in W10 hosts running Workstation 12 Pro

  The title says it all: I have guests Windows Pro 10 tree on a host Windows 10 Pro running VMware Workstation 12 Pro, and I can not access shared folders of the host within the VM settings (\\vmware-host\shared records), or the mapped Z: drive.

  Shared folders on the host computer using the normal windows, sharing mechanism are perfectly accessible from the guests. Shared folders on the guests using the normal windows, sharing mechanism are perfectly accessible from the host. Only those shared in the virtual computer settings are not available,

  I tried to remove and then re-add files, to temporarily disable and sharing, but also re - install VMware tools, with no chance of return. The device worked fine until my clients running Windows 7 and 8.1.

  I know there are questions like that all over the forum, but I have found no working solution for workstation Pro (and Windows 10).

  Someone at - it ideas?

  There was another thread a few days on the same subject, where it has been fixed by completely uninstall VMware Tools, by restarting the OS invited and reinstall the tools (Important: not only do a "repair" install).  Have you tried full uninstall-reboot-reinstall of tools?

  See you soon,.

• How can I run VMWare Workstation on a virtual host?

  I need to run VMWare workstation 7.1 on a 2008 R2 virtual running on ESXi.  The software installs fine, but when I try to start the virtual machines I get the following error 'you are running VMWare Workstation via an incompatible hypervisor. You can not power on a Windows virtual machine until this hypervisor is disabled. »

  Is it still possible?

  Due to a design flaw of material in the first AMD - V compatible processors, we do not support AMD - V on your host.  Hardware support for virtualization (AMD - V or VT - x) for the virtual machine outside is needed to get nested VMs to work.

• How to migrate from vCenter as virtual machine to another host without vMotion running

  We organize ESX 3.5 hosts. I've already updated our vCenter VM to 4.0U1. We have not the vMotion Installer yet (but are licensed for her). What is the appropriate way for migrating the vCenter VM to another host without vMotion, so I can upgrade the host the vCenter VM is running on? I have examined all the documents and messages, I could find, but don't have not seen this addressed.

  You must turn off the virtual machine.

  Copy the files (if are not on a shared data store).

  Save the vmx file in the new ESX (with browser data store).

  Turn on the virtual machine.

• How to run VMWARE Workstation 7.1.2 securely on Windows 7?

  Hello

  I downloaded a trial version of vmware workstation 7.1.2 to check, if I could use it to keep a proven windows 2000 on a windows host environment 7.

  When I run a virtual machine, the system tells me, that the "VmWare authorization Service" does not work. When I try to start from the list of services of the Task Manager, I get the error code_6000004.

  On a forum German vmware, I found the advice to disable windows security feature 7 UAC completely. But that has not yet solved the problem I've tried with a non-administrative user account.

  Finally it works, but only in a dangerous way:

  So far, I only managed to run VMWARE 7.1.2 on Windows 7, if I disable UAC AND log in as administrator. Which would be Ok for experiment from time to time, but do not regularly the computer as is - for good reason - not recommended by windows.

  Can someone please give me some adivce on my questions:

  How can I use VMWare Workstation on a host of Windows 7 with an non-administratif account?

  Better would be, how can I use VMWare Workstation as a standard user AND you have UAC on a recommended security level?

  Is disabling the functions of central security in fact the adivce official to run VmWare on a host of Windows 7?

  I know, Windows 7 is quite new and a lot of software has not properly adapted to him so far, but in the meantime, it is still not easy to find an older host OS to be able to correctly use VMWare (on Windows 2000 as a host, it worked great and I do not want to give it up so easy)

  Kind regards

  I just removed the XML that has been added automatically

  I used Vmware Workstation 7.x for Windows 7 without problems so far. I installed the package as an administrator, of course, but then used the user to create and manage virtual machines. I have UAC in default mode and does not get a prompt either do anything.

  The option "Run as Administrator" is just to load an application with administrator credentials already loading in the token to access at the outset and you will get a prompt later, but there should be no difference here.

• Changing the connections of bridge without virtual network Editor

  I wish I could change the bridged network adapter without using the virtual network Editor, i.e. via a script or VIX. COM.

  The only files I found related to the virtual network editor are those located in the C:\ProgramData\VMware\, which none does not seem to allow me to specify the actual card to use in the bridge. While these files allow to specify which virtual network to use, I have to go a little further and change the real device for the virtual network. So instead of change between 'vmnet0' or "vmnet1", I need to change the NIC vmnet0 uses.

  I am running VMware Workstation 8.0.4 on Windows 7 64 bit.

  Thank you

  Luke

  On the Windows 2003 hosts, I used to do it like this:

  net stop vmnetbridge
  -then regedit key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\VMnetBridge\Parameters\Adapters
  -When does
  net start vmnetbridge

• I can't install vmware view without a second server?

  I am really new to server management. When I tried to install VMware View Server connection I got an error. He said

  A controller of Active Directory (AD DC) domain to the "local" area could contacted could.

  Ensure that the domain name is typed correctly. If the name is correct, click details to correct that information.

  I also read somewhere that you can not install vmware view on the same Active Directory domain controller running server. Is it possible to install vmware view without going through a second server? If so, how?

  You may first have to install ESX/ESXi in your server.

  • After successful installation, connect to the respective client server using vShphere.
  • Try to create 3 virtual machines and install Microsoft 2 k 8 operating systems.
  • The first virtual machine, you can use it as Server Active directory micorsoft.
  • Then you can you use it to vCenter server.
  • Third one you can use for connection server vmware view.
  • You may need to create two more additional, as virtual machines VMware view comments and the other as a client of the view. You can either install windows XP/windows 7 for the VMS in the thesis.

  As already mentioned in messages, you can view VMware View Installation Guide for more details.
