• New to VMware and Exchange 2010

  Hello

  I'm new to VMware and have some questions about the installer.  We just bought a HP DL380 G7 server and Exchange 2010.  I want to virtualize this server with a BES.  I'm trying to understand the best way to proceed.  We also have a Dell EqualLogic iSCSI SAN (PS4000).  Wouldn't it be better for me to boot from SAN and have ESxi installed on the SAN?  Or would it be preferable for ESxi installed on the server and have my VM hosted/installed on the SAN?  Thanks for the help.

  Hello owblueiii,

  I almose same infrastructure such as this, when I started the virtualization process was confused in this place, finally, we kept the boot on local, VMs oniSCSI SAN.

  advantages: 1. because if you have any questions you can the Como.

  2 and also a little difficult to troubleshoot if you have the on iscsi san boot partition.

  3. you can register your vms on san iscsi timing if you want the new ESX installation.

  Hope it's useful to your question.

• I'm new to VMware and need help.

  I'm new to VMWare and barely installed ESXi 6.0 created a host but now I can not install Windows 2012 r2. Cannot access the ISO. Do I need the plugin integration customer or what. I called tech support and they would not help because I am on trial. Any help would be great. Thank you

  You select the ISO in the settings of the virtual machine and select 'connect at Power On "? Alternatively, you can connect the ISO in the current state (power on) and then press CTRL-ALT-INS to 'hot' start the virtual machine.

  André

  PS: If it still does not work, check that you have a bootable ISO image, for example not only a picture of Service Pack.

• New to VMware and considering the training & Certification

  Hello

  I have worked on various projects and IT admin job for more than 14 years in Windows and NetWare environments, but have no experience with any type of virtualization.

  I want to acquire sufficient experience for coherent conversation VMware and vSphere in an interview, and to pass the exam, and I think I might prefer the speed and convenience of the Live-Online course.

  Basically, I have 2 questions:

  1. for someone like me, is at - it a real advantage to take VMware vSphere: crash course, or will install, configure and manage of course give me what I'm looking for?

  2 are there opinions on the benefits of class vs Live-course online?

  Any opinions at all would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

  Chris

  Welcome to the Forums-

  1. I recommend the installation and configuration - it will give you the necessary information to develop a good base in VMware and start preparing to take and pass the exam VCP - there's a number fo son in this forum about what you should do to prepare for the exam of the secure Channel.

  2. The line is good and the same class that is provided in the class but I think the interaction with the instructor and with other students is extremely beneficial.

  Good luck

• IAM new on vmware and am currently evaluate the new workstation 7

  I tried to connect redhat4 linux as comments to my host to windows 7 and it may not, I want to create networks among themselves without the bridge. VMware is really as good as they say it's because it seems so badly at home to connect.

  If you do not want to use Bridged so you can use NAT or Host-Only to create a network connection between the host and Guest and vice versa.

  I suggest that you read chapters 14 (setting up a virtual network) & 15 (advanced virtual networking) in the user of the workstation manual in order to gain a better understanding of the Virtual Network Infrastructure.

  Also keep in mind that the firewall on the host and the guest may need to be configured to allow connectivity between them and if necessary be temporarily disable all Firewalls, AntiVirus and security software on the host and the guest when troubleshooting problems of connectivity and re - activate in a logical manner to determine if one are causing problems of connectivity between them.

• new to vmware - question

  Hi all, I'm new to VMWare and you want to ask a silly question. My project plans to use vmware on a single physical server running windows 2003 to implement multiple instances of servers windows 2003 virtual. My question is what do we need to have different IP address and host name for each server virtual windows? Or vmware manages to solve this problem itself? If so, how does this work?

  Thank you!

  guys, thanks for your reply... as you said, we need differernt IP addresses for each server, which makes it easy for us becase that means that we must go through a long process to the commission, the servers with the new ip address...

  If you had multiple physical servers, you will need to go through the same exact process. How many servers you plan giving each server an IP address is a big problem? VMWare removes just your need more physical servers, what you do with the guest computers is pretty much unchanged.

• New on VMWare... Login and password problems

  Hi all

  I inherited a few major COMPUTER disasters with a client. I'm new to VMWare and have found that several virtual servers are no longer running. We have pay to this topic. When I run the Home Page of VMWare Server it takes me to VMware Infrastructure Web Access with a login and password, but I have no idea what could be. The person who set up the system is not reachable. Is there a way to identify and fix this mess?

  Thanks in advance.

• I am new to mac and vmware.  I can't figure out how to backup my quicken and quickbooks.

  I have activated the mode of sharing folders on the virtual machine, but does not know how to back up quicken and quickbooks programs.  When I go to backup guests they ask the location of the disk I want to back up but I can't understand how to access the machine time or share files to box.  I'm not that computer, so that helps too.

  I sympathize with you. I am new to MAC and VMWare Fusion myself. I have created a shared folder on my desttop called to speed up backups and backup files to save to this folder by using the change menu in the backup dialog box to identify the folder where I want to store the backup files. I also check the date added to each so I can keep a few identifiable backups separately for my record if they ever need.

• VMware Certification questions

  Hello

  I am very new to VMware Certifications. I'm totally confused. I'm just starting with certifications, but don't know where to start.

  I am reasonably comfortable with the products ESXi and vSphere. Should I start VCA or Collect? Also should I go with flow of cloud or a Data Center workflow? I suppose that the flow of Data Center.

  Sorry for the newbie questions.

  If I want to write VCP550, Certification page also indicates that I should study one of the four events:

  VMware vSphere: install, configure, manage [5.5]

  OR

  VMware vSphere: optimize and scale [5.5]

  OR

  VMware vSphere: Troubleshooting workshop [V5.1]

  OR

  vSphere with operations management: Fast Track.

  All these four documents seem to have different syllabus. Say that I take a class for VMware vSphere: install, configure, manage [5.5] and will be VMWare know that I took this class and ask questions accordingly?

  I know that in those above a lot of 4 documents of subjects overlap. But I'm still worried.

  Thanks and advance

  Shri Ganesh

  > But please confirm this will to VMWare issue according to the class that I took!

  Review of VCP550 is based on the examination plan and the questions you get are not you took the class.

  Take the course that best meets your needs, then pass the examination plan and make sure you are well informed about the objectives.

• New to vmware - network speed help please

  Hi all

  I recently joined and installed ESXi 5.1.0 Build 799733 on a box tailor-made purely to test many of our customers use it and I need to familiarize myself with it. Everythings went well except 1 perticular question so far. I have 2 vm Win Server 2008 on a test domain that work very well. However my pc if I rdp to one of the servers and start a copy of the file to say 4 GB RDP, its says its will take about 5 hours ago, transferring 1 mb/s all about surely is not fair?

  The server and my pc are on ssd and a local network of 1 GB connection. Ive browsed the forums and found an article on sending disable unloading on the two network cards, which I did, but it remains the question of speed. Someone at - it any guidance please as its really frustrating. I rang vmware for support but was advised to try here before you buy a solution of their own.

  Please remember I'm new on this and don't have much linux background. I hope someone here can help solve it please?

  ESXi Spec:

  1 x 250 GB SSD - running two VMS

  16GB DDR3 1666 mhz

  Intel Core i7 870 processor 2.93 mhz

  Realtek 8168 Gigabit Ethernet - vSphere reports 10MB Full Duplex Auto negotiate (read online that this speed is not serious because it will be more efficient?)

  PC Spec:

  Windows 8

  1 x 250 GB SSD

  8 GB DDR3 1333 mhz

  AMD Phenom II x 6 1055 t.

  Network Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller card

  The two Spec VM:

  4 CPUS (2 virtual Sockets, 2 by heart)

  4 GB of Ram

  E1000 network card (tried other types but without success)

  50GB partition C

  Thanks in advance

  With a 1GBit switch port and a 1GBit "Auto/Auto" NIC (speed and Duplex auto-negotiation) is the recommended setting. If you get a lower speed, or one of the components (switch port, NIC, or network cable) has a problem or your NETWORK card is is simply not supported on ESXi, i.e. the required drivers are missing. In this case, you can get a NETWORK card, or at least one which is known as work.

• New to VMware - problems with P2V

  I am very new to VMware, so I don't know exactly where to start to get out of trouble. I try to P2V a couple of machines (an older office and about a year laptop) just to test it and get comfortable with the process. I managed with the creation of new virtual machines, but whenever I try to convert one, converter Stand Alone Client shows the conversion as having successfully completed. When I try to run the virtual machine in vSphere Client, all I get is a black screen with what appears to be a progress bar gray little in the upper left of the screen.

  I'm sure that more information is needed, the only thing is that I'm not sure that I have all the information I provide and where to find it. Any help is greatly appreciated.

  bstaton,

  Re-convert and go to the SCSI instead of IDE.  This is a bug, here's the cover note:

• downloaded the new update 10 and now the 'notes' farm as soon as it opens

  This morning I downloaded the new update and now when I try to open the "notes" application, it closes as soon as I open it.  How can I solve this problem.  Thank you

  Hi xostats,

  I understand that after updating to iOS 10, you cannot open the Notes without the app crashing immediately. I know it's important to have all your apps working properly, so I'm happy to help you.

  First of all, connect to iCloud.com and make sure your notes are always present.

  If they are, we will proceed to the activation/deactivation of your Notes and turn it back on. To make this opening settings > iCloud. Here, turn off the Notes and questioned, you can remove them from your iPhone, because they are in iCloud. A time off, go ahead and turn it back on, and then test your Notes application.

  If you continue to have problems, then check the troubleshooting provided here:

  Thank you for using communities Support from Apple. See you soon!
