Patch management of operating system with Update Manager

We are looking for a solution to automate patching of virtual computers running all versions of Windows and Linux and updating of the models used to create them.

I had a few questions about the use of Update Manager for managing operating system patches:

1. What are the versions of Windows on this work?

2. the installation of patches of OS automatized so that virtual machines that are turned off can receive OS patches the next time they run?

3. as the Update Manager works only with ESX hosts and VMs Windows (as far as I know) - is there a comparable solution for maintaining patches operating system of Linux virtual machines through the virtual environment?

This may not answer your question, but maybe help you plan for the future:

of http://www.vmware.com/support/vsphere4/doc/vsp_esx41_vc41_rel_notes.html

VMware vCenter Update Manager features. vCenter Update Manager 4.1 and its updates update releases are the latest editions to support digitization and the rehabilitation of the patches for Windows and Linux guest operating systems and applications that run inside a virtual machine. The ability to perform operations of the virtual machine upgrade of hardware tools VMware and virtual machine will continue to be supported and strengthened.

  • How can I reinstall the operating system with the recurring kernel panics?

    MacBook 1.1, white, plastic, 2.0/2x1GB/80GB/SD/USB.

    It used a lot, but want to keep going for special purposes.  Get kernel panic/black screen when I try to reinstall the operating system on a blank disc;  deleted before trying to reinstall Lion 10.7.3.  Tried other earlier versions of operating system.  Reinstall the memory chips and ordered new ones as a bet.  Made a "Lion" partition the Middle clone backup FW for my MacBook Pro, but there now El Capitan; window said I have bad installer in MB Pro; Cannot install on this new FW partition, but I don't know if this will help anyway.  Must be HW problem; nothing on the MacBook drive.   Diagnosis I could not complete either.  Impossible to wipe FW with the MB Pro, Lion and other stuff loading to attack the problem of HW?   Don't know how to do in this regard.  A new Disk Warrior 5 and old Tech Tool Pro.  Apple HW Test on the original disc from MacBook will not appear either?   Difficult OB!    Challenge yourself, please!   New mem circuits can do. ??

    So I'll try to attack it from the external hard drive, of course, I have to.   But how to find and eliminate the block HW?   Finally, go ask Apple support.

    It doesn't let me finish any operation!

    According to Mactracker, a Macbook 1.1 is limited to Snow Leopard 10.6, as the new OSX compatible.  Do you mean you had lion (10.7) installed?

  • Satellite A100: How to reinstall the operating system with recovery CD?

    Hi guys,.

    My laptop (8 months) has been crashing (Windows XP) lately and I tried to use the product recovery CD but nothing happened (the laptop failed to boot from the CD, instead, she starts toward the window of connection for Windows XP Home edition). When I open the CD in windows Explorer, then I realized it was empty. Is it supposed to be empty?

    Even if the laptop came with a second CD, "Express Media Player Recovery CD", I think that's going to be for recovering pre-installed software supplied with the system.

    I guess I can contact Toshiba for another free product recovery CD (or are they supposed to be two?) my system is still under warranty.

    Please I need confirmation on this asap.

    Post edited by: [email protected]_UK

    Hello

    It's very strange, I can't believe that the Toshiba Recovery CD is empty!
    There must certainly be a ghost image.
    Very, very strange and mysterious

    The Express Media Player recovery CD retrieves only the Media Express Player but not the entire operating system!
    I also recommend to ask the ASP in your country for a replacement CD recovery.
    Perhaps you could send guys the empty recovery CD because they do not believe! ;)

  • Targeting different versions of the operating system with the same code

    Hello again,

    I'm looking to use some features of the OS 5.0 such as the transitional API.  Is there sort of having a base code that will compile in different versions of the JDE, but exclude the code blocks if the OS does not meet the requirements?

    For example, transitions on a device to OS 5.0 but not appear on device OS 4.5.

    Ideally, I'm looking for a solution that would integrate directly with Eclipse and debug without any extra steps in the two versions of the operating system.

    Try to do research on the "preprocessor directives", you can use this to do what you need.

    Basically, you wrap the code OS 5.0 in the guidelines such as:

    #ifdef VER_5
    System.out.println ("This compile for 5.0");
    #else
    System.out.println ("This compiles for no 5.0");
    #endif

    Then, enable you or disable directives in the compiler generate COD versions for each platform.

  • BlackBerry smartphones email questions after operating system upgrade (update initially failed)

    I'm on the AT & T network.  Updated my OS to 4.5.  Screen showed that all backed up, and then when he started the download, I had a system failure.  Released A card sim and retries.  Updated of the operating system, but all my apps disappeared.  All reinstalled unless the password keeper, task and blackberry email.

    The big problem is the email. (although I like a lot the other two applications!)  I can receive email from yahoo and gmail, but cannot send as it says that my phone is not configured.  When I try to go reconfigure, it ask for my pin code and said that an e-mail account is already set up for this phone.  I never use my blackberry account so I have no idea what my username and password are (the info was probably stored in the password lock).  I want to just delete the original blackberry e-mail account and reconfigure.  Help!

    If you are a user of Blackberry Enterprise Server (BES) company - ask your BES administrator to resolve this point on the server.

  • Can I return my computer to this original operating system with a disk. Was Windows 98, XP Home Edition

    I bought a HP Pavilion6355 Top Desk of a former employee and it runs Windows XP Home Edition.

    I found that these computers were originally under Windows 98.

    My question: can I go back to the original operating system without disk.

    Nothing I tried to perform a destructive restore worked, thinking that this is because the o/s has been upgraded.

    Need your help.

    Thanks in advance

    Outside of why you would like to go back to Win 98, it's probably not possible without getting a CD.

    You don't say how you attempted a "destructive recovery".  As far as I KNOW, performing a "destructive recovery" on the HP PC of this vintage required a set of recovery CDs HP.  See http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=bph07141&tmp_task=useCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&jumpid=reg_r1002_usen&lc=en&product=59328

    As far as I know, HP no longer provides these CDs.

    IIRC, the practice to have a hidden partition on the hard drive that could be used to restore a computer provided that "cost-of-the-factory" did not start up Windows XP.  Although there used to be such a partition, it is likely than anyone to install Windows XP removed as part of the upgrade process.

    There is always the FleaBay, Amazonand similar sites.  Do not get a 'upgrade' version unless you have an old Win 95 CD lying around.

    Hello slbhattar,

    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the Forums of HP, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

    I understand that you are having problems after that a Windows Update could not be installed correctly. I recommend that you use the Windows System Restore feature and restore your system to a point in time before that you did the update that caused the problem.

    Before you do the restore, I would recommend that save us your personal files. You can do this by following the HP support document: backup of files (Windows 8). This document will guide you in the backup process. I advise do you it just in case, but the Windows restore feature should not affect personal files.

    Now that you have your saved personal files, we can make the Windows system restore. You can see how to do this by following the HP support document: use Microsoft System Restore (Windows 8). This document will guide you in the process of restoration. Be warned applications or settings that you have changed by the date that you choose will need to be redone or reinstalled.

    I think that this will solve your problem with the update and allow you to go back to listening to your HP computer. Thanks for posting this topic on the Forums of HP. Have a great day!

  • Problem installing operating system with Satellite L30 (PSL33E)

    Hi all.

    So I got a laptop from my firiend from set. Now what he told me is it. He plays a game and the laptop froze. He pressed the power button and restarted the laptop. After restarting the laptop it says windows has recovered from a serious error. After that he could log on to his computer. Then he used the toshiba recovery cd, but this only corrected the problem for a short time.

    Now when he gave it to me I started and he tried to load vista it says that there is a missing file: wdsuti.dll and I had an ErrorCode:0x3E7. I looked this error and then I formatted the drive and tried a fresh install of vista.

    Vista installed fine up to the point where it asks to restart the computer once it restarted it could not load again.
    Now, I tried another disc as the XP disc I install XP and then use the vista upgrade disc but the same thing happens.

    At the moment im trying another installation of vista. It has installed vista, but is running very very slow and took forever to install. From his first start, he crashed and came up with this error message:

    Cannot start Windows

    file: windows\system32\config\system

    status: 0xc00000e9

    Now I'm stumped with an im PC very well I can remove the parts and exchange them etc.
    I guess that the hard drive is dying.
    Am wrong me, or would be - this another problem?

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    EDIT: Also note that I have reset the BIOS default settings and am now running Windows memory diagnostic tool.

    What is the result after you run the Windows memory diagnostic tool?
