• customization error "Sysprep is not installed on the server of virtual center for the model you have selected.

  Hi all

  Need your help with customization of the script here is the steps I've done so far

  1.I have created a virtual machine with Windows XP Professional as the operating system installed VMware Tools / VMware view agent then I added the virtual machine to the domain and created a template called (winXPtemp)

  2. According to article http://www.VMware.com/support/VC/doc/c12prepcustomize.html#1030366 I downloaded the Q257813_w2k_spl_x86_en.exe and the same extract. I force my VC server find the path as mentioned in article

  C:\ [VirtualCenter_installation_directory]\resources\windows\sysprep\1.1 so copied the files extracted to the location C:\Program Files\VMware\Infrastructure\VirtualCenter Server\resources\windows

  3 then I copied and extracted the file \support\tools\deploy.cab on the windows 2003 CD and copied the sysprep files extracted to the following location on the VC Server

  C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\VMware\VMware VirtualCenter\sysprep\xp

  4. After you have done that, I've created a script under customization script called "testsript".

  5 Note until now I have not created a pool of resources as requires it the deployment of only 4 VM on an ESX Server with script customization. The data store for the virtual machine is a 100 GB LUN from a 2050 of FAS of NetApp iSCSI

  6. now when I create an automatic pool when I select the script that I created in step 4, and then click then it gives me an error "Sysprep is not installed on the server of virtual center for the model you have selected. Sysprep on the server installation.

  Troubleshooting done by me:

  I have readded the VC Server Manager to view but it force worked

  Thanks in advance for your help

  Kind regards

  If I remember correctly the location for XP should go to: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\VMware\VMware VirtualCenter\sysprep\xp

  For XP SP2 Sysprep files can be downloaded from the Microsoft site and are called

  Windows XP SP2 deployment tools

  The article you linked was VirtualCenter 1.x. Since you have given a version number of VirtualCenter I assumed it was 2.x or later.

• How to record a custom message / event in the virtual center of the virtual machine

  Is it possible to record a personalized message in the virtual center of the VM?

  I use a vCLI script to reset a virtual machine. I want to report where (PC) this script is launched.

  And it would be great if it is possible to report to the event list or task of the virtual machine that will be reset.

  You can relate from where and which this script is initiated by the following script

  #!/usr/bin/perl -w
  # CustomEvent.pl
  
  #
  use strict;
  use warnings;
  use VMware::VILib;
  use VMware::VIRuntime;
  
  my %opts = (
     vmname => {
        type => "=s",
        help => "Name the virtual machine associated with the event",
        required => 1,
     },
  );
  
  Opts::add_options(%opts);
  
  Opts::parse();
  Opts::validate();
  Util::connect();
  
  my $vmname  = Opts::get_option('vmname');
  my $username, my $compname;
  ($username = `echo %USERNAME%`) =~ /(\S+)/; $username = $1;
  ($compname = `echo %COMPUTERNAME%`) =~ /(\S+)/; $compname = $1;
  
  my $EventManager = Vim::get_service_content()->eventManager;
  my $EventManager_view = Vim::get_view(mo_ref => $EventManager);
  my $vm_ref = Vim::find_entity_view(view_type => 'VirtualMachine', filter => {'name' => $vmname});
  eval {
      $EventManager_view->LogUserEvent(entity => $vm_ref, msg => "CE_RESTARTVM : VM $vmname restarted by $username from $compname.");
      Util::trace(0, "\n CUSTOMEVENT \'VM $vmname restarted by $username from $compname.\' post Successfully.\n");
  };
  if ($@) {print "Error: ". $@ . "\n";}
  Util::disconnect();

• ESXi (free) and virtual Center.  I have to buy ESXi Foundation to manage?

  I have a bunch of servers ESXi (free) and now I want to manage them centrally.  I have the pirce for virtual Center, but I'm not quite clear on whether or not I need to change the ESXi license or not?

  Thank you

  Hey,.

  http://www.VMware.com/files/PDF/ESX_Server_3i_presentation.PDF

  Take a look at page 12, it will show the different types of licenses with ESXi.

  You will need to buy at least the basic license to enable management of the VC.

• Virtual Center - stop the database server

  Hi friends,

  I have a few questions about if the virtual Center database down. Please help gettting below answers

  -What are the activities I'm *NOT* not be able to perform in virtual Center

  -What are the activities that I will be able to perform in virtual Center.

  -Up to how many days I will be able to use virtual Center, even if the back-end database is down

  -What dates are passed, what is the impact

  Concerning

  Amul

  -Up to how many days I will be able to use virtual Center, even if the back-end database is down

  It's easy... as soon as your database goes down, Virtual Centre will drop.

  -What are the activities I'm *NOT* not be able to perform in virtual Center

  Virtually everything as deploy from models, vmotion, storage vmotion, user access through virtual center, backup solutions environment through virtual center management will not work until that recover you or re-create virtual venter and reattach the hosts.

  Basically things like high availability will work, you will be capable of powering the virtual computer (by connecting directly to the esx host) and to stop (as long as your license server is online). Your VM will also continue to funcrtion normally while the VC is in offline mode.

• 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.

• Migration of the Virtual Center of SQL2005 database to a new server running SQL2008

  Virtual Center 2.5 Build 147633

  ESX hosts 3.5.0 143128

  Separate server database running SQL 2005

  We replace our SQL2005 server with a server SQL2008. We will migrate the database of VC on him. What are the steps on the side of Virtual Center. My plan is to:

  1. Backup the database

  2. Stopping VMWare services

  3. Migrate the database to SQL2008

  4. Change the Virtual Center ODBC connector to point to the new database server

  5. Restart the VMWare services.

  Is there anything, I'm missing or should be cautious?

  just note that, as of today, SQL 2008, is not a database supported for vCenter

• Virtual Center records the path

  I have my virtual center installed on a separate physical server from 2003.  When I installed it, I indicated to install on one different partition (e) other than the boot drive (c :)).  Disk space on the C: progressed for some time now, and I noticed there are about $ 3 of newspapers on C:\Documents and Settings\All Users Application Data VMware concert.  He would be allowed to move to E: or even to delete these log files?  Can I make the Virtual Center Server to put logs on E: instead?

  Hello.

  See KB 1009145.  For step 4, I stop the vCenter Server service, move the active log directory, and then restart the VirtualCenter Server service.

  Good luck!
