• Download of Virtual Machine Manager of console.

  Hello

  I installed the evaluation for Service Center Virtual Machine Manager.  http://www.Microsoft.com/en-US/Download/details.aspx?ID=40843

  I got the operating system and managed to connect my Hyper-V hosts.  However, I'm trying to get Virtual Machine Manager console download so that I can connect from another system to test the operational aspects without having to be located on the server.

  Can someone help us locate the download so I can install it locally.

• Change of virtual machines managed by SRM for VR in an event of DR

  Hello

  I have a virtual machine that is being replicated using replication vSphere + I configured a recovery SRM for virtual machine plan is managed by SRM.

  

  In a DR situation:

  • To recover a virtual machine that is managed by VR everything I have to do is to connect to vCenter to your web site of DR via vSphere client, then click on recover.
  • To recover a virtual machine that is managed by MRS. all you need is to get a full vsphere to your DR site that has the plugin SRM installed before you can retrieve customer.

  My question:

  Suffice it to say at an event of DR MRS on the DR site was dismantled (so I couldn't recover virtual machines managed by SRM) but I can connect to the Web from vSphere client and retrieve virtual machine managed by VR, is it possible to manually change the virtual machines managed by SRM, so they are managed by new RV?

  See you soon

  Hello

  There are internal interface that allows you to do. Please contact VMware support team.

  Go get the current "recovered by" value:

  https://vrms_address:8043 / mob /? me = Recovery Manager & method = HmsRecoveryManagerGetGroupsRecoverySolution & vmodl = 1

  To reset the value "recovered by" RV:

  https://vrms_address:8043 / mob /? me = Recovery Manager & method = HmsRecoveryManagerSetGroupsRecoverySolution & vmodl = 1

  Call the method after replacing ME with the GID... replication value and clear the value (empty string) for the recoveredBy property.

  To retrieve the value, GID-... - look at the names of the replica files in target or check data warehouses the table GroupEntity in DB VRMS. To get prompt SQL embedded DB VRMS - use

  / opt/VMware/vpostgres/Current/bin/psql vrmsdb - U

  and

  \Q to quit smoking

  Please note that the foregoing is not officially supported and may change with the different versions of the VR.

• HP Virtual Machine Management Pack SIM

  I was wondering if anyone has had positive experiences with the Virtual Machine Management Pack and if it provides statistics of performance\health applies the penalty on virtual machines, but also the ESX environment...

  Thank you-

  I've had for two ESX hosts.  I'm not to renew support or maintenance for her and the plan to abandon it.  It doesn't seem to be very useful for me at all.   We use the Foundation so no VC, HA, VMotion, etc..

  I am also especially get rid of it, because I had some weird intermittent problems with backup of my virtual machines on the hosts that the VMM agent running.  Every few weeks, one of my virtual machines of production will be just downtime during the backup process.  None of my other ESX host for this, except the two with VMM, so I think it's related.

  Just my $. 02.

• Problems installing System Center Data Protection Manager 2010 in Server 2008 r2 DataCenter

  I try to install DPM 2010 and I installed all 4 of the installation of packages and they are all in the same folder according to the installation instructions on Microsoft Technet for DPM site 2010 and I clicked on the 1st package install and it unpacks the original installation package and it brings up the install window install data protection manager and clicked on install and I get the following error on the redistributable Visual C++ - Redistributable package Installation of Visual C++ has no... Run vcredist_x64.exe \redist\vcredist\ to install vcredist and re-run Setup.

  Whenever I tried to install the vcredist_x64.exe which was provided with the download I get the error that it cannot install, tht, there was an unexpected error.

  I downloaded the redistributable Microsoft and tried to install it, but the 2010 version is already installed and I could not install the version of 2008 on the 2010 version. I tried to download Visual C++ 2008 redistributable sp1 and installed correctly but when I come back and you try to install the System Center DPM 2010 setup.exe it always tries to go to the folder with the not redistributable sp1 provided with the download and it freezes in half way through even though the correct redist "is installed for server 2008 r2 x 64.

  Anyone got any suggestions? I've been searching and trying to figure out for hours and I don't see anything in the KB for DPM 2010 or technet.

• License with virtual machines management

  People:

  We use virtual machines.  If we have a change in personnel or a VM corrupted, we create a new virtual machine to duplicate an existing hard drive, create a new VM, and assign the hard drive duplicate on the new computer.  Works perfectly.

  The problem is that Acrobat thinks that we have installed on a new computer and requires therefore renewal, and it will not re-license automatically because he thinks that the license is already in use.

  Is there a way around this problem?

  Is it possible to convert our licenses from selling retail to a sort of volume license where there are but the code of a license that can be used X number of times?

  Thank you.

  MICAH

  Purchase the right number of Volume licenses rather than retail sales license.

• Cloud management authority seizes not password provided by Cloudstack after the deployment of Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter Edition on a virtual machine

  I want to use Windows Server 2012 R2 on a virtual machine. When I start the machine virtual first time, Manager of cloud instance that is installed on the operating system intercepts not created by Cloudstack password. When I reset the password, and then he grabs this new password and I can access VM.

  That's the problem with compatibility with WIndows Server R2 2012 nursery cloud instance? Because the same version of it works well with WIndows Server 2008 R2 VM.

• Move ROW with dynamic disk to another virtual machine

  Hello

  I'm in a situation where I have to leave my RDM Win2003 VM to win2008, but the complexity and multiple physical RDMs here make only dynamic partition (RDM1 1.5 TB, RDM2 1.5 TB, is drive G RDM3 1 TB 4 TB),

  Now my question is if I can move this partition of G (which includes 3 disks RDM) again an another VM (win2008)

  Thanks, SD

  Hello

  This does not resemble a specific question VMware.  On the contrary, seems like a question of Microsoft Windows.  Just make sure the hosts on which the virtual machine of 2008 runs can see the same ROW and follow this procedure to remove dynamic disks of the virtual machine of 2003 and add them to the virtual machine of 2008.

  Move disks to another computer

  All the best,

  Mike

• How to set vm-description/notes and get the name of the data store, where the virtual machine

  Hello guys,.
  I have vCenter Orchestrator 4.1.1 build 733 installed and it works fine, but I need your help for the following two issues:
  (1) I want to put the description/notes of a virtual machine using a workflow. But I have not found any API useful to create this workflow (I don't want custom attributes, see attachment for details).

  (2) how can I get the name of the data store, where the virtual machine? I need this name for a workflow.
  I need your help.
  Thanks in advance!

  With regard to the notes of the VM, the following code (see enclosed package) can do this:

  var oldNotes = vm.summary.config.annotation;
  If (oldNotes == null) {oldNotes = ' ' ;}}
  System.log ("Notes of VM current:" + oldNotes);
  Now put the new notes:
  Start by creating a context
  Context of var = new VcVirtualMachineConfigSpec();
  Update the annotation with the new value property
  configSpec.annotation = notes;
  launch the task to reconfigure the virtual machine with the new context
  NOTE: This is sure to apply with a virtual machine under tension
  var task = vm.reconfigVM_Task (configSpec);

  And, in what concerns the VM information, take a look at the workflow of the library: \Library\vCenter\Virtual Machine management\Others\Extract virtual machine information

• migrate virtual machines to esxi 3.5 free vsphere 4.1 without vcenter

  Hi all

  I have vms on 2 hosts esxi 3.5 with direct (without san)-attached storage that I want to migrate to a new server esxi under license of 4.1 vsphere essentials. I intend using the stand-alone converter to migrate virtual machines from 3.5 to 4.1 and then upgrade the other two hosts to 4.1 and then moving some virtual machines using the converter.

  I have Web servers that I don't want to bring down more than 10 to 20 minutes (not the 1 to 2 hours that should be a cold conversion with converter) so I try to use the feature p2v on the virtual machine running Web servers.

  Has anyone done this with no san and no vcenter? If so how did you do?

  is it possible to migrate without losing configurations of network adapter in the virtual machine?

  I can just do something like taking a snapshot of the system of runnying, then copy files to new host, then add to the inventory, upgrade tools, hardware upgrade?

  Thank you!

  is it possible to migrate without losing configurations of network adapter in the virtual machine?

  After you copy the files and re - add to inventory new virtual machine, you must take care on the issue of handgun that you see in the market.

  Choose I_moved the files to keep the VM UUID and the same virtual MAC address.

• Hot add option missing from all virtual machines.

  I'm under esx4.0, with all kinds of guest virtual machines (2003, 2008, 2008r2, std, ent, x 64). I don't have the option add hot for one of these clients.  It is simply absent on options & gt; Advanced tab.  What am I misssing here?

  Thank you.

  It will show only if it is an option for the operating system for some versions it won't be there.  Also, what version of material are your virtual machines?  Must be version 7 I think.

• How to separate in CP virtual machines (VM) to other machines of material?

  Hi all

  After the discovery process in the data capacity Planner Manager, we have a problem with separating it from some (really) virtual machines running in the VI3 environment other material machines and in the customer consolidation report this result of the effect of consolidation. Someone has an idea?

  Jerome Kovac

  the data manager should note what systems are virtual machines.  Once you have that you may be able to consolidate them, then download the new list of inventory.

  Once you have the dashboard updated, then exclude the grouping of the consolidation scenario.

  You can also group directly on the dashboard.

  Kind regards
