• No network on the virtual machine after the use of converter

  I was running a basic vm (WinXP) on an esxi4.1 host running short of disk space.

  So I ran the vCenter Converter Standalone client to copy the original VM on a new - the only thing that I changed the size of the disc thin provisioned avaiable.   The copy/convert seemed to work your.

  I started in the new virtual machine, and it came exactly as the old one (with the largest disk).

  ... but the network on the works of more than vm.

  I can still use vSphere to connect to the esxi server and bring up the VM console (which tells me that the network the server works very well).  When I look at the configuration of the virtual machine, it looks exactly like the old (complete with a network powered).   But on the virtual machine, I can't even ping the router, much less get to the dhcp server.

  I even went so far as to stop the virtual machine, remove the network card, restart the virtual machine (if the network has been removed from the virtual machine), stop the virtual machine again, add a NEW network adapter.

  Still the problem remains.  The virtual machine has a network card - but has no network.

  A few thoughts:

  You use a managed physical switch? If so, check if the MAC address of the VM is seen on one of the uplink ports.

  The network management and the virtual machine using the same IP subnet? You could probably try (if possible) is to create an another vSwitch and attach the XP VM to it to see if there is a problem with the virtual machine and the management on the same vSwitch network.

• List not updated virtual machines after the migration of the virtual machine to a different data store

  My vSphere infrastructure 5 uses several data stores.

  Two data warehouses are associated with NFS on different NAS shares.

  I migrate VM to a data to another store.

  The navigation data store, I see that the files are moved from the old data store to the new and that no file belonging to the migrated VM still does exist on the old data store.

  If I look at the list of VMs on the old data store, I still see the old VM.

  I see it in the list of the virtual machine on the new data store as well.

  I checked that no .iso no pagefile is in the old data store.

  How can I update the list of the virtual machine on the old data store?

  Above all, how can I safely delete the old data store by ensuring that the virtual machine works very well on the new data store and I don't lose anything?

  Concerning

  Marius

  This use of data store 'Phantom' is usually observed, if the current configuration of the virtual computer points to the 'old' data store (diskette, CD-ROM) or the virtual machine contains snapshots where - at the time where tone have been created - the VM has had these references. Once the snapshots are deleted from data store 'ghost' will go away from summary of the virtual machine.

• State of the virtual machine after the host failure

  Hello

  If a virtual machine is running on a host and that host suddenly powers off dirty, like a power failure or a remote access card power the server due to a fault, overtemp etc., what happens to the virtual machine?

  My guess is the virtual machine is actually difficult, dirty off too and if HA is configured, etc it is going to do a full power on sequence. Or is it restart on a new server and be automatically in the same power state with the same States of memory and cpu until the host has dropped dead? So if I got a connection of the DRC in a vm of windows server and the host dies suddenly and it restarts, reconnect to the session even State immediately before the breaking of the host?

  Thank you

  When ESX\ESXi fails due to power failure:

  No configured HA:

  1. all virtual machines is also faces off against the sudden stop. SMV will lose data runtime and all communications (including the RDP connection) will be interrupted.

  Configured HA:

  1 VMs will be powered - on on a different host. However, its the same as a reset of the virtual machine, we will lose any unsaved data.

  VMware FT:

  We ensure 100% uptime for a virtual machine using VMware Fault Tolerance. In case of failure of the host, next time school resumes VM in FT. More details on IP are available at the following link.

• Let me know scenarios when different virtual machines with the same UUID are created in VMware Hypervisors?

  Let me know scenarios when different virtual machines with the same UUID created in VMware Hypervisors, aside from editing the .vmx file?

  The only other way I've seen is when you manually copy the virtual machine to another location on the data store (or another data store) and then when turn on/off the virtual machine, select I moved, rather that I copied it (the default option).  This will keep the same UUID.

• Cannot create a PDF file after the upgrades: Adobe 9.2 and Mac OS 10.6.2

  After the upgrade to Adobe Professional 9.2 and Mac 10.6.2 I lost the ability to create PDF files.

  The printer Adobe (display says that the printer is v. 9.0) indicates the status of the job as "Mistake" and has the following message; "You must install the software to use this printer. To install the software, choose software update from the Apple menu. If the software for your printer is not available in software update, contact the manufacturer of your printer. »

  I get errors when I try to create a PDF from a Web page.

  I get the following error when I try to create a pdf from a word file: "Acrobat cannot open 'AAA.docx' because it is not a type of supported file or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an attachment to e-mail and has not been correctly decoded).

  To create an Adobe PDF document, go to the source application. Then print the document in Adobe PDF format".

  (I can create a PDF from jpg files... but I never really have a need to do this...)

  I uninstalled Adobe Professional by using the uninstall program (then emptied the trash and restart), then reinstalled Adobe Professional from disk (and restarted).  After the reinstallation, I always get the same problems, even if I get no error message until Adobe Professional updates from 9.0 to 9.2.  Before the upgrade Adobe, v9.0 attempts to print to pdf just act as the pdf is created (no error message), but I do not get a backup fast, nor is a new pdf no matter where the document is located.

  Help, please!

  With OSX.6.x, the possibility of using the Adobe PDF printer has been lost. See the ad at the top of this forum (known issues with Snow Leopard).

• Cannot RDP into virtual machine after the reboot

  Hi all

  I use VMware ESXi4.0

  I'm having a problem where if I reboot a virtual machine, once it restarts I try to use the Remote Desktop Connection Manager to access and receive this error:

  "The connection cannot be completed because the remote computer that has been reached is not the one that you specified.  This could be caused by an outdated entry in the DNS cache.  Try using the IP address of the computer instead of the name. »

  The current machine I noticed the error is Windows 7 but also for me Server 2008.  not sure if this relevant.  I can still access the machine through vSphere, but not Remote Desktop.  When I ping the name of the machine as well as IP address, they both similar deadlines.

  I checked my DC for dns entries, and they are there for this computer as well as in the reverse lookup zones.  I tried to do a/flushdns and / registerdns on the virtual machine.

  I would usually have for this problem to connect to vSphere virtual machine, then RDCM is there to connect.

  I saw another post on this topic in the forum, but he had a solution. This post is here > http://communities.vmware.com/message/1304004

  I tried the recommendations here and they did not help.

  Any ideas on what I can try?

  Thanks in advance,

  John

  Here's the update to which I was referring... He had to be reissued in June because of the problems that it caused on some systems.

  But, if you are able to connect via IP, then the RDP patch will probably not help.

• Can I just create a virtual machine with the installation of operating system and Application in an external drive?

  People,

  Hello. I use VMPlayer to install virtual machines a few OS in my laptop.

  Because my laptop's hard drive space is not enough to create a VM more to install Oracle Linux and its Application, can I just create a virtual machine in my laptop and then install Oracle Linux and its Application in an external USB disk?

  You can create and save the Virtual Machine in any place that you have read & write access to and enough space to support what is being installed.

• Cannot convert a virtual machine while it is powere on or suspended. Shut down and power off the virtual machine before the conversion.

  Hi all

  I am currently using preinstalled VMware 7.1 and I try to import a virtual machine, I used to work on my windows XP. Recently, I am using windows VISTA and I am trying to import my VM (.vmx) and I get this error "cannot convert a virtual machine, although it is powere on or suspended.

• Random virtual machines after vMotion and Storage vMotion network loss

  Hi all -

  I have a couple of tickets open with VMware and our supplier of SAN, EqualLogic, on this issue.  Since the configuration of our production and DMZ clusters we noticed that the virtual machines will sometimes drop network connectivity after a successful vMotion and Storage vMotion.  Sometimes, although much less frequently, virtual machines also spontaneously lose network overnight.  What happened only a few times.  The strange thing is that the other guests on the VM host are fine - they lose any network.  Actually, I can do no more than 3 computers virtual host to another, and 2 of 3 can switch correctly, so that we lose the network.  The work around?  Simply 'disconnect' from the virtual NETWORK card 'reconnect' and the virtual machine will start the return packets.  I can also switch the VM troubled return to the host State and it will find the network.  I can it reboot and re - win network.  I can re - install the virtual card completely, and she re - win network.

  VMware has seen a lot of mistakes of SAN in our log files in order to update us our SAN firmware to the latest version.  That seems to have fixed that but we still have the issue.  Here are some of the specifications - all environments are virtually identical except for memory:

  Of PowerEdge R810

  NICs Broadcom 5709

  EqualLogic SAN running 5.0.5 F/W

  We use frames.  ESXi is fully patched.  I haven't seen a boss or not, it is only some guest operating system that loses the network, but we are a Windows environment.

  When a virtual machine loses the network, we can not:

  • Ping to it
    
  • Ping it
    
  • Ping him at the virtual machines on the same host or vSwitch
    
  • Ping outside our network
    
  • resolve DNS, etc..
    

  I followed some KBs VMware without success, including:

  http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1003839
  http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC & externalId = 1002811 (port security is not enabled)

  -All the VMware tools have been updated to the latest version correct and corresponds to the ESXi host
  -Connected to the service ESXi console, I cannot ping the VM problem by name of host or IP address, but I can ping do not affected by the issue of the OTHER virtual machines.  I can also pings the service console.
  -Connected to the troubled virtual machine itself, I cannot ping other virtual machines, I can't resolve host names, I cannot ping by IP.  The machine virtual CAN ping itself by IP, but not hostname.  I cannot ping other virtual computers on the same virtual switch or network by either IP or host name.  I can't ping the vSwitch network management.
  -All vSwitches are configured in the same way and the same.
  -Notify the switches is set to yes
  -There are a lot of available virtual ports
  -We tried the E1000 and VMXNET virtual cards with no difference.
  -All cards are configured to negotiate, but we tried to force individuals speeds as well as with no difference

  I appreciate your help.  I have problems getting anywhere on this issue with the sellers.

  Still having the issue...

  Sometimes, it might be useful to really check that all uplinks VMNIC for all VLAN does work them. Try this is to create a new portgroup on the vSwitch used by your virtual machines on the host of the first, put a test VM on the portgroup, then go into the NIC teaming policy from the new portgroup and select "Override switch command failover."

  Then down vmnic all except one in unused, then only a single VMNIC is active. Then set the portgroup VLAN to a production of VLAN and try to see if we could ping some expected from the different addresses. If it works, then move VMNIC work until unused and move up to another asset. Try again, and this for all the vmnic. If it works, then you have verified that the configuration of VLANS and other settings are correct on the physical switch in the face of this host ports.

  If several VLANs, repeat the process for all other productions VLAN. Then repeat on the other hosts.

  While that may take some time, occurs if everything is properly configured on the physical switches. When occurs a vMotion virtual machine gets a new "Port code" and is assigned to a new outgoing VMNIC. If there is an error of configuration on one or more physical ports that might seem random, but may still happen on VLAN x on y VMNIC. Given that Port ID policy you use indeed spread randomly VMs on the vmnic these problems may be difficult to diagnose. (Make a disconnection of the VM vNIC gives the virtual machine a new port-ID, which it will move to a new outgoing VMNIC, which might seem to solve the problem.)

• is it possible to access the virtual machine when the network is down...

  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.

• Windows XP mode virtual machine does not start after the upgrade to Windows 10

  Hello

  After the upgrade to Windows 7 Pro for Windows 10 Pro, my virtual Windows XP machine (which was created from the "XP" mode in Windows 7) no longer starts.

  It shows:

  This system is not allowed to run "Windows XP Mode". Now, the virtual machine will be turned off.

  How can I activate the Windows XP Mode in Windows 10 Pro? I mean, I have not lost my right to run Windows XP Mode, just because I've upgraded to Windows 10, right?

  VMware Workstation 12.1

  Hello

  How can I activate the Windows XP Mode in Windows 10 Pro? I mean, I have not lost my right to run Windows XP Mode, just because I've upgraded to Windows 10, right?

  I fear that the statement is pretty much on the mark.

  Microsoft caught only supported XP Mode in Windows 7, it has been since Windows 8.

  See also:

  https://support.Microsoft.com/en-us/KB/2724115

  You might be able to extract the folder integer vhd it and import it in VMware Workstation as a separate virtual machine. In the end, 'XP Mode' just was running a virtual machine in your Windows 7 after all.

• PowerCLI Script to migrate virtual machines with the same network Source for the new vCenter Server.

  Hi all

  I checked a few posts on the migration to the new vCenter Server virtual machine. But I'm not very good with Powercli and need some help here.

  We have a new vCenter server where we migrate virtual machines from one source vCenter server. Here are two things that I don't know how to connect together to make sure that bwfore we turn on the virtual machine to the virtual machine is connected to its source network.

  Part 1 - this script works well but do not get any network on the vCenter destination.

  cluster = Get-Cluster "clusterA.

  $inventory = get-Cluster $cluster | Get - VM | Add-Member - MemberType ScriptProperty-name "VMXPath" - value {$this.extensiondata.config.files.vmpathname}-Passthru-Force | Select-Object Name ResourcePool, folder, VMXPath |

  $inventory | Export-Csv c:\file.csv

  $inventory = import-csv c:\file.csv

  $cluster = get-group 'b '.

  {foreach ($vm to $inventory)

  $ESXHost = get-Cluster $cluster | Get-VMHost | Select - 1 first

  New-VM - VMFilePath $vm. VMXPath - VMHost $ESXHost - location $vm. Folder - ResourcePool (Get-Cluster $cluster |) Get-ResourcePool $vm. ResourcePool)

  }

  Part 2 - I want to preserve the Portgroup macaddress and the Ip of the virtual computers and connect them to the new vCenter. How can I do this with the script below. Or how can I combine them together?

  $vm_list = get-Cluster-name "clustera | Get - VM test * | Name sort

  $information = {foreach ($vm to $vm_list)

  $network_adapter_information = get-NetworkAdapter - VM $vm

  $vm | Select Name,PowerState,ResourcePool,@{N="Path; E=       {$_.

  }

  Step 2

  # Unsubscribe virtual machines

  Remove-VM - VM $vm_list-RunAsync Verbose - confirm: $false

  Step 3

  $cluster = get-group 'b '.

  {foreach ($vm to $inventory)

  $ESXHost = get-Cluster $cluster | Get-VMHost | Select - 1 first

  New-VM - VMFilePath $vm. VMXPath - VMHost $ESXHost - location $vm. Folder - ResourcePool (Get-Cluster $cluster |) Get-ResourcePool $vm. ResourcePool)

  }

  # Save virtual machines

  foreach ($info in $information)

  $vmxpath = $info. Path

  $resource_pool = $info. ResourcePool.Name

  New-VM - ResourcePool (ResourcePool-Get-name $resource_pool) VMFilePath - $vmxpath - RunAsync-Verbose | Out-Null

  }

  Step 4

  # Put the network cards

  foreach ($info in $inventory)

  {

  foreach ($network_information in ($info.NetworkAdapter - split ":"))))

  {

  $virtual_machine = $info | %{$_. Name}

  $network_adapter = ($network_information-split ",") [0]

  $network_vlan = ($network_information-split ",") [1]

  Get-VM-name $virtual_machine | Get-NetworkAdapter-name $network_adapter | Together-NetworkAdapter - NetworkName $network_vlan-Verbose-RunAsync-confirm: $false | Out-Null

  }

  }

  # Start the virtual machines

  foreach ($vm to $vm_list)

  {

  Start-VM - VM $vm. Name-RunAsync Verbose - confirm: $false | Out-Null}

  }

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  Hi all
