• Serial port and parallel to ESXi 4

  Hello

  What about series and PARALLEL to VM mapping in esxi 4?

  Nothing. You cannot map serial ports or parallel in ESXi, ESX is required for this type of functionality.

• Series, parallel, USB ports are available in ESXi?

  Hello

  I am currently using the ESXi 4.0

  I have read the knowledge base,

  and found the step to activate the devices USB, Serial Ports and Paraller.

  But it is still not able to work.

  Can I know what step I'm bored or something else I don't have success install?

  Please please help me on this.

  If you want to use the real serial ports - you have two options:

  (1) install a serial to IP device

  (2) not use ESX, ESXi. ESX are supported by two parallel port forwarding and VM series

• Taken serial port redirection supported with PCoIP?

  Does anyone know if the serial port redirection is supported when connecting through the PCoIP Protocol?

  This works if you are using the RDP Protocol, but not of PCoIP.

  Connection of Windows Embedded Standard View 4 customer via View 4 build 233023 XP SP3 server computer virtual resource.

  No, only USB ports can now be redirected with PCoIP

• ESXi 4.1 supports the transmission of serial port?

  I'm having a bit to find this information...

  My ESXi server has a serial port that I want to be available to a virtual machine (guest).  Is this possible?

  I don't want to share the serial port or do anything "fancy".  I just want it to be accessible.

  Thank you!

  Starting with ESXi 4.1, you can go through a serial port.  Simply add a port series to virtual hardware for the virtual machine and choose the option 'Use the physical serial port'.

• Trying to understand ESXi serial port

  I'll have mixed, configuration of a serial port physical to get through to the VM.

  We run ESXi 4.1 on machines Prolient HP DL 180 G6. They each have a single physical serial port.

  I have a console connected, reliable cisco on the port of phyiscal for the test. Simple config 9600-8-N-1. I use to connect to the com ports of in SecureCRT 6.1 Windows VMs. Sometimes I connect successfully to the cisco console. More often, I just a terminal does not respond. I can find no pattern of work to understand why it works sometimes.

  When I create a serial port in the virtual machine settings, how do I know what com receives the connection in the virtual machine? The first created is simply called "Serial1", and the following conditions are numbered incrementally. Is it true that "Serial1" is > Com1? and Serial2 == > Com2? There is a check box available in the "peripheral" VMWare Tools tab; but that's all, it's: a checkbox.

  All virtual machines appear to all have a port com1, com2, at the same time, no matter what the hypervisor has on the virtual computer. Probably Windows should have no serial ports except if one is configured, see the 'new' material when the serial number is created in ESXi and always have that one?

  When I create serial ports, it seems I can connect as much as I want to the device/dev/tank/serial/uart0 physics. It's not supposed to such that there should be some argument for the port?

  Is there a test/debugging I can do at the hypervisor level? When the config fails it is frustrating to have nothing more informative than a Terminal window empty.

  Thanks for your time.

• serial port

  Hello
  I have a HP (DL 380) with a serial port server. I would like to know if it is possible, use the serial port when I make a virtual machine with vmware vsphere 5. So if this virtual port is Port Pass Through... So the question is: is it possible to use a physical serial port on the virtual machine with vphere 5?

  Thank you

  Jonh

  That's right, the old versions of ESXi does not support physical series (http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1003129) connections. Anyway, ESXi 5.0 is not mentioned in this article.

• Unable to connect to the physical COM port

  In my region of lab, I use VMware ESXi 3.5 on an HP ML350 G6 server.

  The server has a physical COM port but when I try to add a serial port to a guest VM 'Physical serial Port on the host of the use' option is greyed and unavailable. Other options are available by I don't need them.

  Any other virtual machine uses the COM port.

  How can I enable the use of the COM port to connect a modem to my VM guest?

• PCMCIA card as a serial port RS232 on Satellite Pro 4200

  I think to use a PCMCIA card as a serial RS232 port. The program that I need to use runs under DOS and needs two serial ports. My question is that I need to run the program and the serial port to be recognized by the system. I have a satellite pro 4200 laptop PC series.

  Thank you

  Why on Earth if you want that?
  Your laptop computer with a serial port doesn't have it?

  Well for the serial ports are standard supported on Windows. In a back box that should be no problem.

  But pure back could be a problem.
  I guess you must also BACK drivers for your PCMCIA card...

• Add serial port

  I am trying to add a serial port to a virtual computer to point to the physical serial port ESXI hosts. I must repeat cela about a hundred times, so looking for this script. I can find scripts to do this with other types of serial ports, but could not adapt it to a physical serial port mapped through.

  Thank you

  You can try like this?

  You will need to check the "devicename".

  $vmName =

  $dev = new-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualDeviceConfigSpec

  $dev.operation = 'Add '.

  $dev.device = new-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualSerialPort

  $dev.device.key = - 1

  $dev.device.backing = new-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualSerialPortDeviceBackingInfo

  $dev.device.backing.deviceName = ' / dev/tank/series/uart0.

  $dev.device.connectable = new-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualDeviceConnectInfo

  $dev.device.connectable.startConnected = $true

• How to access a host USB Virtual Serial Port from a VM Application?

  I have a Linux VM running under VMware Player 5.0.2 on a Linux host machine.   I have a development system running on the computer, virtual trying to download the code on an external device connected via a virtual serial port USB host (ttyACM0).   Anyone doing programming Arduino device will be familiar with my software/hardware config.  Dev VM system does not directly hear the ttyACM0 port I need to establish some sort of connection bridge between "ttyACM0" host port and the port of VM-configured "ttySx"?   Someone did something like this with a VM Player?

  FYI, I found the answer to my own question in an old post on a similar topic. Here's a response provided by the user 'Worker' in the former post office that was the solution to my problem.  I followed its general approach and mounted my own virtual *.vmx machine configuration file to change the serial port set of ' / dev/ttyS1 "to" / dev/ttyACM0 ' I can now download code on my device directly from the Arduino IDE running on the guest VM system.

  Worker (1 positions since November 23, 2010) November 23, 2010 12:56 am (in response to AnthonySowden)

  A bit of an old thread here, but I wanted to say that I was able to do exactly this yesterday using VMware Server 2.

  It wasn't easy, but I managed to hack in there.  I guess that this trick works also on VM WS but I have not yet tested.

  Here are the steps:

  Start your VM turned off.

  Add a serial port of your virtual machine through the normal interface. -J' I just let it use/dev/ttyS0.

  Go to your virtual machine folder and edit the .vmx config file.

  Find the line:

  Serial0.filename = ' / dev/ttyS0 ".

  Replace:

  Serial0.filename = "/ dev/ttyUSB0 '.

  and off you go.  The guest operating system sees it as a real physical serial port and is fortunately out my system through series console!

  Hope that helps other people.

• Measurement & Automation explore (MAX) cannot find any serial ports

  Hello

  I tried half of the internet, but I can't find a solution for my problem. Maybe someone of you have an idea :-)

  My System Information:

  OS: Windows 7 (64-bit)

  LabView: LabView Professional Development System 2015 (32 bit)

  MAX: Version 15.0.0f0

  NI-VISA: 15.0

  NOR-Serial 14.0

  I've attached a screenshot of MAX at the end of my post.

  All the drivers for serial ports are properly installed (see another screenshot). But Max, I can't find these ports. There is only the error code "0xBFFF0011 (VI_ERROR_RSRC_NFOUND). If I want to add the COM Port via 'Devices and Interfaces'--> 'New'--> ' Port (serial or parallel) ", I can only choose between COM1-COM4 and LPT1-LPT4. But I need COM9!

  Anyone have any idea what I did wrong?

  Thank you

  deZeus

  I looks like something is wrong with your installation OR VISA (as MAX does not find ALL ports).  Make sure that NEITHER VISA is activated (sometimes of other kinds of visa in the way), or try reinstalling NI VISA.  Serial number NOR is not necessary since you are not serial ports using OR.

• Multi serial port on target RT installation

  Hello

  I use a pc dekstop as a real-time target.

  I use the realtime module 2015 on host and pharlab 13.1 in time real OS on the device target.

  I use a 1 × DB44 serial port for 4 × RS232 (PCI Serial Card made by the MOXSA company) in the RT target.

  But the mentioned card PCI serial ports are not recognized in the Software NI MAX (it is not visible in the tree of device and Interface).

  How can I install the driver for the PCI card on the target device?

  Is - what the PCI card must necessarily come from National instrument?

  Best regards

  NEITHER VISA you installed on the computer?

  It is possible that specific device requires drivers that do not work in LV RT. You should ask the supplier of the device if this is the case.
