Opening greater than 1 virtual machine at startup?

Is this possible with Fusion 3, or do you need to use vmrun?

I tried auto-start a 10.5 OSXS and Fedora 11 VM at startup - start only OSXS.

I would use vmrun in a bash script that is configured to run as a result of authentication or the need.

    No, only one favorite is both allowed but prevents you from scripts at startup of several Virtual Machines.  It could be a simple bash script or you can use AppleScript or Automator to achieve this.  If you what them to count when you connect, you can then add to your login under your account items in system preferences.

  • After update of El Capitan, Fusion 8 will not open the Boot Camp virtual machine

    Greetings!

    I'm having a problem with the Fusion 8 since my update to El Capitan.   My Boot Camp partition is functional and I can boot directly into it very well - all my files and data are intact.   However, when I try to start the machine Boot Camp in a virtual machine within OS x, I get the following error:

    Operation not permitted

    Cannot open disk "/ Administrator/Users / / Library/Application Support/VMWare Fusion/Virtual Machines/Boot Camp/Boot Camp 2.vmwarevm/Boot Camp 2.vmdk' or one of the snapshot disks it depends."   Module 'Disc' on failed.   Unable to start the virtual machine. »

    I remember a message from the update of El Capitan, indicating that it is an element incompatible Parallels and disabled.   I thought it was the components of laggard remains from when I ran a parallel trial a year ago, but perhaps it is related?

    Help, please!

    Hi gang,.

    I have a solution for this!   After I created this post, I created a ticket with support and they solved it for me.

    Here's the skinny: El Capitan has changed something wise permissions to access data files on the Bootcamp partition.  VMWare said they were working to solve this, but in the meantime they had me do made me upward and short... just remove the entry of the virtual machine Boot Camp in Fusion and recreate it.   I recommend you save beforehand in case where, but this process does not affect the data on your partition, only one definition of the Fusion of the virtual machine and how you can access your score.

  • start a virtual machine at startup of windows 7 via issue of short boot cut

    Hi Experts

    I am running Win7 with 10 Workstation. I'm trying to start a VM at startup as its suppose to host my server cloud. Then I don't have to manually start the virtual machine each time.

    I put a shortcut to vmware workstation in the startup folder in the start menu. And followed the guide of the user of the WS10, excerpts below:

    Incorporate the workstation Startup Options in a Windows shortcut

    1 right click on the shortcut of the workstation and select Properties.

    2 in the target text box, add all the options to use after the vmware.exe and place the entire order

    quoted string.

    For example:

    «C:\Program VMware Workstation\vmware.exe x»

    C:\Documents and utilisateur\Mes Documents\My Me\Windows Machines\Windows Settings\nom virtual

    Me.vmx ".

    So I did the same thing, but when I put in the path to my vmx file I get an error how the target path is invalid. That's what I put:

    "C:\Program Files (x 86) \VMware\VMware Workstation\vmware.exe x - D:\My Documents\Virtual Machines\OwnCloud_2nd\OwnCloud_2nd.vmx.

    But when I run it as a command such as file below, it works:

    CD "C:\Program Files (x 86) \VMware\VMware Workstation\.

    VMware.exe - x "D:\My Documents\Virtual Machines\OwnCloud_2nd\OwnCloud_2nd.vmx"

    output

    can someone point out to me what am I doing wrong?

    Form the command as follows: "C:\Program Files (x 86) \VMware\VMware"-x "D:\My Documents\Virtual Machines\OwnCloud_2nd\OwnCloud_2nd.vmx.

    Or you can configure the virtual machine to run as a Virtual Machine shared.  Check out the VMware Workstation Documentation and or the help file.

  • Failed to retrieve more than 100 virtual machines by using the method PropertyCollector and WaitForUpdatesEx

    With vSphere SDK for .NET. Sorry, could not find a forum .NET for vSphere SDK, but the Java forum should be close enough.

    I have problems of retrieval of a list of virtual machines from a Pool of resources. More precisely, if there are more than 100 mV (104 in my case) in the folder or the Pool of resources returned UpdateSet can have 100 items in there.

    The offending code is the following:

    UpdateSet uSet = pc. WaitForUpdatesEx (string. Empty, new WaitOptions() {MaxWaitSeconds = 0});
    Console.Writeline (uSet.FilterSet [0].) ObjectSet.Count); will always contain no more than 100 items

    It seems to be a difficult cut off the coast of 100 items.
    WaitOptions of WaitForUpdatesEx contains a property of MaxObjectUpdates of literature

    "The maximum number of entries in ObjectUpdate which must be returned in a single result of WaitForUpdatesEx. See truncated

    An undefined value indicates that there is no maximum. In this case political PropertyCollector can still limit the number of objects that appear in a UpdateSet. »

    But what is the policy of 'PropertyCollector' that it is? I've been trawling the web and will find absolutely no mention of this in all others in the documentation.

    I also tried to put right in a a MaxObjectUpdates = 150 just to see what would happen. Yet once only 100 items returned.

    For reference, here's a more complete article of the code:

    EntityViewBase folderMngObj = GetVsphereVmFolderManagedObjectRefId (vClient, vSpherefolderName);

    If (folderMngObj! = null)
         {
    ManagedObjectReference svcRef = new ManagedObjectReference() {Type = 'ServiceInstance', Value = 'ServiceInstance'};
    SrvInst ServiceInstance = new ServiceInstance (vClient, svcRef);

    ServiceContent sContent = srvInst.RetrieveServiceContent ();
    ViewManager viewManager = new ViewManager (vClient, sContent.ViewManager);
    PropertyCollector pc = new PropertyCollector (vClient, sContent.PropertyCollector);

    ManagedObjectReference cvMngObjRef = viewManager.CreateContainerView (folderMngObj.MoRef, new String() {"VirtualMachine"}, false);
    ContainerView cv = new ContainerView (vClient, cvMngObjRef);
    PropertySpecList list < PropertySpec > = gcnew List < PropertySpec > ();

    foreach (string propertyPath in vmPropertyPaths)
              {
    PropertySpec propSpec = new PropertySpec();
    propSpec.PathSet = new String() {propertyPath ;} }
    propSpec.Type = 'VirtualMachine';
    propertySpecList.Add (propSpec);
              }

    PropertySpec [] propertySpecs = propertySpecList.ToArray ();
    PropertyFilterSpec pfs = new PropertyFilterSpec();
              pfs. ObjectSet = new ObjectSpec [] {CreateObjSpec (cv)};
              pfs. PropSet = propertySpecs;

    / / Create a property with partialUpdate is true
    PropertyFilter pf = new PropertyFilter (vClient, pc. CreateFilter (pfs, true));

    / / Wait that initial udpate with the version string empty
    UpdateSet uSet = pc. WaitForUpdatesEx (string. Vacuum, new WaitOptions() {MaxWaitSeconds = 0})

    / / Here uSet.FilterSet [0]. ObjectSet will always contain not more than 100 items

    viewTable = OutputDataset (uSet);
              pf. DestroyPropertyFilter();
    }

    Any help would be appreciated.

    What is the value of the indicator "truncated" in the returned UpdateSet?

    http://www.VMware.com/support/developer/VC-SDK/visdk41pubs/ApiReference/vmodl.query.PropertyCollector.UpdateSet.html#truncated

    If set to true, you must call waitForUpdatesEx (with the version of the UpdateSet) back to get the rest updates.

  • Start a virtual machine at startup

    I briefly looked for an answer to this, but I don't see anything, so if I missed it, I apologize.

    My mother has a bad habbit to fuck up his computer so I thought I'd be a good son and set up her laptop so that it starts in a VM at startup and if it breaks, I can just log in to the host operating system and take the backup I intend to take as a starting point and restore it.

    Keep in mind, she doesn't have a network boot server in a virtual machine. Is there a way to change the windows boot.ini file so that it will load only in virtual machine, unless I need for maintenance

    Hello

    You always need to install an OS to run VMware Player where do support (remote) that you are talking about the host.

    So put an option in the boot.ini file does not work.

    Basically you would have to auto-start the virtual machine when the host has started, and then put this one mode full-screen.

    You could do at least some of this with the vmrun command from the startup folder for example, but I'm not sure of the mode switch full screen on this one.

    He has been spoken before.

    Here are some links:

    or, use this trick guys from VMware, it should work and is fairly simple to use.

  • More than a Virtual Machine on vSwitch\Virtual Machine Network will be NOTconnect

    I have a problem when I start more than one guest on a single vSwitch will connect to the network.

    I have a DELL of 710 with 4 network cards installed.  2 of them are assigned to network management.

    I created a vSwitch1 using 2 other network adapters and that assigned to the virtual machine network.

    I then can't get one of the Virtual Machines to connect to the network.

    Then, I created vSwitch2\Virtual Machine Network2 and use 1 NETWORK for each virtual network card and can then get 2 connected Virtual Machines.

    Sounds like your network switches is configured to only allow one MAC address per physical port.

  • Is it possible to open a VMWare Workstation virtual machine, VMWare Fusion?

    Hi all

    I recently moved to a MacBook Pro and have installed VMWare Fusion.

    My question is this...  Is it possible to open a virtual machine that I created in VMWare Workstation, VMWare Fusion?

    Thank you

    Dan.

    Do not.  Just copy the folder FULL of computer workstation computer merger.  In Fusion, select "Open an existing Virtual Machine" and find the folder that you copied and select the .vmx file.  No stupid masking the content of the file making it appear to the user unaware that the entire virtual machine is a big don't file this way.

    Greetings,

    Looking at your vmware.log file, you experience a similar problem to the one I see.  Can see you if disabling the setting of acceleration under "Display" settings for this virtual machine allows to start completely?

    I've also responded to another user who has the same problem with the same solution.  Something in the latest versions of Mac OS X seems to have broken the acceleration 3D versions of Fusion 3 and 4 support (at least).

  • spend crashes after trying to start more than 1 virtual machine.

    Hi - I'm under CentOS 5.4 x 64.  I had an installation of VMware Server 2.0 running for awhile now.  I did just update this afternoon and now as soon as he tried to run more than 1 VM (I 5 who need to start), accidents pass after the first runs.  I thought that maybe there was a problem with the kernel so I started out of the previous kernel and still no dice.  I tried to do a complete uninstall of Server 2.0 (cleaned up/etc/vmware and/usr/lib/vmware) and then installed the 2.0.1 version.  I was able to enter the console, import my machines and then as soon as I had one running and tried to do something else, pass crashes.

  • Create a great metric for virtual machines that shows how many virtual machines on the host parent

    One of the properties of a virtual computer's Parent host.  I would like to pass this info on to a metric Super VM and use to gather the number of VMS are on the associated VM host Parent.   This SM would be so associated with my VMs.

    Is this possible?

    -MattG

    I found this:

    AVG (${adaptertype = VMWARE, objecttype = HostSystem, attribute is summary | total_number_vms, depth =-1})

    Because I had to use a host object type I don't think he would show as a metric of Super in the scope of the VM... it does!

    The error messages seem to suggest that some drivers are corrupted. The only way to solve, which is by uninstalling VMware Fusion 8, restart OS X (ensuring that no driver remains persistent), then install VMware Fusion 8 again.

    Note, that this will not delete your virtual machines (with additional backups is always a good thing if)

  • is it possible that an application on a virtual machine is faster than in its host?

    To measure the performance of our software on vmware, compare us the performance of vm compared to its host machine.

    We found that performance on three different machines showed a very different behavior, of 50% slower at 10% slower.

    And the strangest thing is that there is a single machine, his vm is faster than its host.

    Any help on the possible reasons is appreciated!

    Thank you!

    Additional information:

    The application is time CPU,.

    CentOS 6.2 for the vm and host,

    VMware Workstation 10.0.1 build-1379776

    Xeon 2 E5-2630 0 @ 2.30 GHz, 12 Core CPU, 64 GB20%

    After eliminating the various factors, we finally understood the cause: hyper threading

    After that we switched off the hyper threading, everything became normal, the slower and faster virtual machines showed same performance.

    Host performance has even improved, about 10-20% faster than the virtual machine.
