• Yosemite & NEW installation of InDesign CS6 - questions?

  I installed on my 2010 Yosemite MacBook Pro. My boss wants me to buy InDesign CS6 as a new installation. (I've never had any version of InDesign installed on my Mac). I prefer InDesign CC, but he's going for him.

  I've seen a few questions where those who have already installed versions of InDesign CS6 have problems with it after the installation of Yosemite.

  Given that mine would be a NEW installation of InDesign CS6 on a Mac of Yosemite, I wonder if there are any known issues.

  I don't want to buy the software and then have problems.

  (I'm not having problems with already installed versions of Photoshop CS6 and Dreamweaver CS6 and Yosemite).

  The problems are happening with update installs Yosemite. If you did a clean installation, you should be fine. An upgrade? Anything other than a roll of the dice.

  Download the trial version and give it a whirl.

  BTW, you could explain to your boss that CS6 will cost $700. A subscription to InDesign will be $ 20 $par month.

• The installation of VMWare View Server program

  Hello

  I have a solution of ESXi, vSphere 5 where I host all my virtual servers with a virtual vCenter Management Standard.  I'm working on that I need for a configuration of VMWare View and I was hoping someone here could help me.

  I have 12 physical blades to host my VMWare View solution (according to the calculations of number of jobs) and I have VMWare View Bundle licenses.

  Ive been reading through the notes and he says that this set comes with an edition of vCenter.

  A few questions:

  My existing vCenter instance should be used to manage the VMWare View host or do I need to install a separate instance of vCenter VMWare View and use the license in the bundle?

  I guess I should install ESXi instances in the beam that will allow me to supply only desktop computers?

  If I have servers connection and composer, should they be hosted in Clusters VMWare View or the cluster of servers existing vsphere 5?

  If this is the case, I also have a question about the network configuration.  When I install the ESXi for VMWare View, will I still have a requirement for a management console, the vmkernel, and the 'Front End' (for users IP address) vnic to the vswitch?

  Another question about the round rbin DNS.  I try to also install Connection 2 and 2 servers of composer whose load is balanced.  Anyone has any info on setting up of Robin DNS?

  Thank you very much

  We use a 6 with network storage based physical NETWORK adapter configuration.

  You will have a default port for management.  vMotion is split to its own IP address, and these two vmkernel ports are on the same vSwitch, with natachasery used by one and waiting for the other.

  iSCSI must be separated from its own vSwitch and pair of NICs as well supported by linked vmkernel ports for redundancy and load balancing.

  This leaves at least another vSwitch and pair of natachasery to the actual traffic of vm.

• Installation of VMware View issues

  I'm trying to evaluate vmware view 4.5. So far, I have only experience with VSphere 4.1.

  When I try to install VMware View Server connection I get an error that TCP Port 80 is already in use.

  On this virtual machine (W2008 R2) it is only VCenter 4.1 and view composer 2.5 installed.

  I have not found any role for IIS is installed, so port 80 must be available.

  Or do I have to install the server connection view on another virtual machine?

  Also, I found nothing to administer the View Composer.

  Maybe there's a howto to install 4.5 view first?

  Thanks for any response.

  To add to this a little, we do not support the login server to view being installed on the same server vCenter or any other part of the view. It must be on its own separate server.

• (Beginner) of the initial steps for the new installation of vmware workstation & guest os

  Hi, very new for the virtual machine. I need help on what type of software (vmware), need and the first steps of the installation.

  Current configuration: a portable 3 separate HD, 1 computer = Windows 7, 2 = XP, 3 is Linux RH. I have manually swap HD to work on each operating system.

  Req: A laptop with Windows 7 as main OS and two other OS (XP and Linux) Guest.

  (1) I prefer not to install OS and the entire application again for the guest operating system (XP and linux), will like to convert, copy, etc.

  (2) can I install multiple OS (XP) for testing of applications and then delete them?

  (3) can I use a different version of an application in a guest operating system?

  The software that I need to buy:

  VMware workstation 7.1

  Version of the converted VMware?  (this may be free, I think)

  ThinApp 4. ???

  If these are vmware software that I need is a step by step installation, in particular of the convert.

  Thank you, ralph

  Hi Raoul,.

  Welcome to the forums.

  VMware vCenter Converter Standalone is a free download that is accessible to everyone, so you can use it to convert your existing machines.

  For testing purposes, you can create a virtual machine "or" with all standard applications, and then use the function 'linked-clone"of the workstation. In this way, you can have several machines quickly with the same basic configuration to test different applications.

  It is more complicated to have multiple versions of the same application in a single virtual machine. ThinApp seems to be the solution, but it should require the application packages (I have no experience with ThinApp) construction. It's a bit complicated just to test. Way the easiest would be to create a new virtual machine for each version of the application.

  Workstation and the converter are very easy to install if you use a standard configuration.

  Good luck.

• VMware View Security Server DMZ

  Hello!

  We are currently developing a small installation of VMware View in our office as a CEP and I have a question about the server security and the need for the ports against customers.

  Our facility:

  (Active Directory and RADIUS) 2-factor authentication

  Front End FW

  Security on the DMZ server

  Backend FW

  Connection to the server

  The question I have is:

  4172TCP/UDP port 3389 be open from the Security server to customers?

  Is there no way of this tunnel since the Security server through the connection to the server on the inside?

  Thank you

  Kenth

  Hej Kenta.

  You are right, there is currently no way to tunnel on the dry-server and the connection broker using PCoIP, you can only create a tunnel through one.

  So that means you need to open TCP/UDP 4172 between dry-server and desktop computers-view.

• Deleting events in VMware View administrator

  Hello

  How can I remove events in the administrator of the display (here I have the version 4.6)?

  Due to a configuration problem now I have the same error over 3,000 events, and I'd be happy if I can delete them.

  Kind regards

  André

  You might be able to delete directly from SQL, using the events and event_data tables in the case of database.   I found th informaton below on page 10 of the guide to integration of VMware View.  I want to backup my database of events before performing any manipulation.

  VMware View provides details on all tables of database events. After a certain period of time elapsed

  Since writing to event record, VMware View deletes the record of the event, and event_data tables. You can

  Administrator display allows you to configure the period for which the database maintains a register to the event and

  tables of event_data. See the

  Installation of VMware View document for more information.

• DST and vmware view = weird questions

  This is the 3rd time that when the time comes or goes we get questions of kind of weird in our very frequent floating pools, VMs stuck in starting up, wait for connection etc.

  If you look at the log below you will see that the virtual machine has been one hour before, and then she came back at the right time.

  Anyone else seen elsewhere?

  I was on the phone with VMware for 5 hours Tuesday last with this same problem.  I ended up solving the problem without their help.  You must initialize your model, let the time updated, shut it down, take a new snapshot and recompose your pool.

  Re: View 5.3 - desktop blocked at startup

• VMware View - provisioning question of desktop computers

  I'm new to VMware View and just build a my QA cluster environment.  I have installed/configured view administrator on a dedicated virtual machine and installed/configured on my server vCenter composer.  I created a gold statue (called, joined the domain, configured custom parameters, view agent installed) and converted to a model. Then, I created a pool on my server administrator to view and added 10 desktop computers.  They have all implemented successfully, however, they all have the same computer name (same name, I named the machine of the gold statue).  The machines that appear in VMware show the naming convention that I created, but the internal computer name is the same for all. I guess that the DNS name.  also, I can have these machines added to the announcement through this process or do they need to be predefined?

  Customization = None seems to be the reason. When we customize him clone all the related machine settings are kept from the model VM, which are the name of the Machine, machine SID, the work/domain group settings, etc. That's why you see Office all the same names as those given to the model. You can create a customization specification in the CR. Instructions to create a file of customiztion specifications in vCenter can be found at:

  http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-4-esx-vcenter/index.jsp?topic=/com.vmware.vsphere.vmadmin.doc_41/vsp_vm_guide/deploy_vms_from_templates_and_clones/t_create_a_customization_specification_for_windows.html

  Use this technique of customization when you create the pool. Hope that helps.

• Failed installation of VMware Workstation 9 on new install of win 7

  I looked at the discussion of installation has failed VMware Workstation 9, verified that I am administrator, cleaned folder and looked at the registry and I'm still having problems.  The name of the account used is not Admin/Admin or anything close.

  This is a new installation today of windows 7 with all updates applied.  Avast is my anti-virus software.  The behavior does not change with it running or disabled.

  I think that the problem to be that KLM/Sofware/VMware Inc. does not appear.  I checked that I can create keys.

  "In my installs I've seen: message" failure of the MSI MSI "and once"the MSI MSI failed. "  Authorization of VMware (VMAuthService) failed to start service.

  Here are the logs from my last install.

  Can someone provide me with more information about the problem and how to get this installed?

  Thank you

  Finally got this resolved after many setup logs sent to VMware.  I came across the registry problems and VMAuthdServices fail to start due to software AV.

  In short, following http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1031302 (KB1031302) is important as well as some comments from howellrj.  Here's what I did in detail and why during my various tests of installation:

  http://KB.VMware.com/kb/1031302

  1 I used the only account on the system, which did not have a name as owner, admin, administrator, which has administrator privileges

  2 wiped % TEMP % whenever I made an attempt to install

  3 MS KB 942288 not recommended for Win7 so I jumped

  4 no earlier version of VMware Workstation has been installed on the system, so I jumped

  5 ran http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2438651/en-us (MS KB2438651) whenever I made an attempt to install.  He has never found anything wrong

  6 was not running WinXP so I jumped

  7 has made run msconfig to disable all services and should follow https://support3.avast.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=1334 (Avast KB1334) to disable Avast self protection mode.  Even with Avast protection auto mode disabled and all the disabled Avast shields were always running and prevent.  The only way to clear the checkpoint was to remove Avast completely.

  8 I ran sfc/scannow before each installation to be sure.  No problems have ever been found.

  So, here is what I did to get the software installed successfully:

  An item copied to my system

  1 AV Installer on my system

  2 use FixIt of MS KB 2438651

  Disconnected the network B

  C restart the system with network not connected

  D removed Avast

  E to restart the system with network not connected

  1 erase TEMP

  2 Ran FixIt utility of MS KB 2438651

  3 ran sfc/scannow

  F install VMware Workstation

  G restart the system

  H check VMware Workstation starts

  I install Avast

  J stop the system

  K connecting to the network

  L reboot the system with connected network

  M update Avast

  N reconfigure Avast

• Question of VSI/VMWare View 4.5 connection

  It is perhaps a silly question, but it is a question that I encounter.  I've set up a small test environment to try to test the capabilities of my server using LoginVSI and ESXi/VMware View 4.5.  I have a few VMs work and but when I went to start a test but I am running on an issue which prevents me from run LoginVSI.  The problem is that I seem to be only able to connect to a client in by pitcher no matter if I use the command line or from the client application to view.  It seems that I can make a pool by VM and try to do the test in this way with a user by the pitcher, but that seems to be a wrong way to use the pools.  Y at - it a specific setting I'm missing to allow multiple users to log on to the VMWare View Client by machine or is this an intentional design decision that cannot be changed?  Thank you.

  There is an unsupported command line that allows you to run more than one user per machine.   The command line variable is - standalone.   I've never used seen it mentioned in another post, http://communities.vmware.com/message/1655745#1655745.

• Questions about VMware View

  Hi, I need to provide always on desktops to remote 50 users. I have been using VMware workstation to provide these desktop computers, but it was a temporary solution that is quick and easy.

  I started by installing the free ESXi which works fine except that these virtual machines are running an application that requires DirectX. When reading information VMware views looks like it's maybe the solution I need, but I can't say if she can provide always on workstations or if desktop computers are provided according to the needs. My 2nd concern is cost. I don't mind spending the money for VMware View, but looks like I have to have seen running in AD and that it will require me to install many other products such as VMware infrastructure 3.5. Someone has some good links to install VMware View and the provisioning of desktops?

  When you purchase View 4.5, business or first, you get ESX and vSphere vCenter / I.  If you are supported on this part.  You don't need to buy that separately.

  With respect to reviews, the guides are:

  To start using the doc started get: http://pubs.vmware.com/view45/ol/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.htm#href=get_started/t_getstarted.html

  http://www.VMware.com/files/PDF/VMware-View45-evaluators-Guide.PDF -> is excellent for your POC on VMWare View.

  http://www.vmware.com/pdf/view45_installation_guide.pdf -> installation guide.

  You will need to have Active Directory in your environment.  View is used to automatically configure your desktop to your users.

  If you use clones of link or local mode (the ability to check your workstations), then you will need to Prime Minister, Enterprise edition will be beneficial.

  Hope this helps,

• Installation of the SDK to allow VMWare View to connect to VC - how?

  Hello

  I installed the server VMWare View connection, but when I try to add my VC, I get a connection error. I checked the firewall ports and traffic becomes to my VC so I don't think that's the problem. I checked the event log on the server VMWare View connection and try to connect to http:// < virtualcenter >: < port > /SDK

  I guess this way tells me that I need to install the SDK. I downloaded it, but the installation instructions are not clear, and I find nothing in the installation guide for VMWare View to help me.

  Can someone advise or give me a detailed guide on what do I do?

  There is nothing to install. The URL... / sdk will give a 404 error, it is not used as-is. For example, I've seen configured to point to the VC:

  Server address: vc.mpryor.int

  User name: administrator

  Password: *.

  Connect using SSL: true

  This will save the URL https://vc.mpryor.int:443 / sdk in ADAM and use it. Navigation it will give me a 404 error, but I assure you that I'm using without problem.  You must have a network issue - check firewall, proxy server (for the machine, not your user account) and DNS.

• VMware View 4.6 upgrade question

  Currently I have VMware View 4.5 installed.  Is it possible to simply upgrade to 4.6 Security brokers to test PCoIP connections through a broker?  Or the agent, composer and Director of view needs to be upgraded as well?

  Non - gateway PCoIP functionality requires that the Security Server and the login server is upgraded to 4.6. See http://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-14974

  Select this option.
