  • I've set up the virtual machine in win 7 Ultimate and put some data. Now when I try to connect it asks password and does not accept any password.

    Default password Machine virtual XP Mode

    I've set up the virtual machine in win 7 Ultimate and put some data. Now when I try to connect it asks password and does not accept any password. Please giveme the default password

    If you're talking about XP Mode the default password is XPMUser.  In general you can not use Windows without a password in Windows Virtual PC that you can with Virtual PC 2007 and before.  XPMUser is used only with the XP Mode virtual machine.  All other virtual machines requires a user created password.  If you have changed the password in XP Mode and forgotten, then you have to start over.

    Windows Virtual PC is based on virtual server rather than VPC and all virtual machines need a password.  If necessary, uninstall the integration features, start the virtual machine and create a password for the admin user.  Restart the virtual machine, and then reinstall the integration features.  You will not be able to access a virtual machine created by the user that has no password, while the integration features are installed.  Once you have everything right, that a virtual machine will not be asked a password if you are the admin user in Windows 7.

  • Is it possible to recover all the virtual machines in a cluster in a single web service call?

    I tried to retrieve the list of all virtual machines in a cluster to a single web service call, but to no avail. It seems that there is no direct web service API to achieve this goal. Alternative options must first recover the hosts or data warehouses in the cluster and then recover virtual machines from there. But still, if anyone has an idea how we can do this please let me know. All help information will be greatly appreciated.

    It is possible, if you use the PropertyCollector.

    (It is usually the answer to questions of the form "Is it possible to retrieve the X in a single web service call").

    Call"propertycollector.retrievecontents:

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

    allows you to retrieve a whole bunch of stuff in a single call, which you then have to go through and interpret.

    A snippet of code Java VI is not-really-tested to find virtual machines in a ComputeResource (cluster) is attached.

  • What host will allow the maximum ram for the virtual machine?

    I currently took an image of a Windows 2003 small business server backup and put it in a virtual machine that I use to run vmplayer. The host is Windows XP pro. With superior memory about 3.6 GB Windows XP, I can't allocate 4 GB for Windows 2003. I would be able to allocate more if I used Windows 7 64 bit as my host with 12 GB of Ram?

    Hello

    Welcome to the VMware community forums!

    A simple question and a simple answer. YES, when you switch to Win7 x 64 and have more than 4 GB of memory in your host application, you will then be able to use more memory for your comments. If Windows SBS 2003 is able to treat all of the 4 GB that you can set the memory to 4 GB.

    Hope this helps,

  • Could not power on VM: no space is available on the device: cannot power on the virtual machine.

    VMware esx ei, 3.5.0 123629

    Physical memory: 64 GB

    Hard drive: 1.63 TB

    7 virtual machines. 5 of them are configured with 4 GB memory and 2 of them with 2 GB of memory. I am able to power on 3 virtual machines with 4 GB of memory.

    When I try to turn on 4th VM with 2 GB of memory, I get this error message "could not power on VM: no space is available on the device: cannot power on VM.»

    I would like to know if this is the limitation of the ESX Server? How should I size the memory for VMS if I want to run every 7 virtual machines to the

    Moreover, given that I have 64 GB of physical memory. Is there documentation that provides a report of the maximum allowed memory configurable

    compared to the virtual memory?

    Thank you

    Ganesh.

    Ganesh,

    Memory reservations are defined based on VM by VM.

    You can allocate more memory to the virtual machines you have in your host (it's not really a good idea to go crazy with the overcommitment of memory, but some level of excessive pressure is used in general).  Memory applied to your VM resources are shares, bookings and VMkernel Swap limits.

    Just to illustrate:

    You allocate 8 GB memory to a virtual computer.  If you take all the parameters by default, ESX will allot a 8 GB VMkernel Swap file in the base directory of your VM (it will have the extension ".vswp") this VMkernel Swap file is a safety net.  Your virtual machine, at this stage, can consume up to 8 GB of memory If physics is available from the host.  If the memory of your host is overcommitted, some of the available memory 8 GB could be allocated on 8 GB VMkernel Swap file.

    If you set a reserve of memory - 2 GB - this means that the vmkernel will still award the first 2 GB of memory used by the virtual machine to the physical memory.  This is not means that the 2 GB of memory reserved is carved off the coast and completely dedicated to the virtual machine.  This means that the vmkernel offers up to 2 GB of RAM to the VM when and if she needs to use it.  It is a guarantee that the memory will be available upon request.  Because of this guarantee of the VMkernel, VMkernel swap file only has to make sure that the 6 GB memory is satisfied (4 GB total less the 2 GB reserved), so the VMkernel Swap file is only 6 GB in size.

    Actions are a mechanism for prioritization and limits are a cap on physical memory ever allocated to the VM.

    You can set up any number of memory for the virtual machines that you want - frankly, overcommitment of memory for ESX is a very good thing, but you must be vigilant about watching your systems if approve you.  If you have 64 GB of RAM, and you only configure your virtual machines to use total 32G, then you lose 32 GB of RAM.  If you allocate, say, 96 GB of RAM (total) to your virtual machines, then you look at a 50% overcommitment.  What to watch in overcommitting memory is application performance (and more importantly - perception of the user of this performance) and also the memory ballooning and VMkernel Swapping activity.  Those who can both will be in graphics performance in VirtualCenter.  I would recommend reading the Guide to management resources for more details.

    Hope that provides an overview.

    Thank you

  • vRO presentation: return the total size of the disk of the virtual machine

    Hi guys,.

    I have a catalog item to extend a drive, which is presented to the vRA advanced services and picks up the vRO workflow. For this reason, the default IaaS vRA no between not affecting resource management. So I would limit the end-users to a maximum size of the virtual machine - that is to say, if the size + total size they intended to expand is > to a specific size, then the workflow will report this.

    I wrote the following code to return the total of all the disks that are attached to a machine. Then, it comes to the tab Presentation vRO to fill the discs max value. It works fine when I use the code as a workflow and connect the output. However, vRO presentation does not return a value any. Anyone had similar problems or I made a stupid mistake and missed something?

    var total = 0;

    size var = new Array();

    var features = vm.config.hardware.device;

    var h = 0;

    for (var i in devices) {}

    If (devices [i] instanceof VcVirtualDisk) {}

    size [h +] = [i] devices, .capacityInKB / 1024 / 1024;

    Total += devices [i] .capacityInKB / 1024 / 1024;

    }

    }

    return to the total;




    Thank you

  • Shared behavior of the virtual machine on the host system shutdown

    Shared behavior of the virtual machine on the host system shutdown

    Greetings,

    I installed WIn7 - 64 bit host system, WS8 and there seems to be a very nice and high quality configuration. I am very happy.

    There is a shared VM and it's a Setup 64-bit Ubuntu 10.04 Server functioning as a base configuration LAMP for some basic web applications, etc..

    I was unable to find the settings to control the behavior of the VM shared with the system that hosts stop. When I stop the host system, I believe that the common VM is off tension or stop gracefully, I don't know who. What I like best is for the shared VM will not apply instead. The reason is that starting the virtual machine is a bit complicated and requires manual intervention. Whereas, if it is stopped since a State suspended without manual intervention is necessary.

    I found that if there is a loss of power, I can hibernate the host system in time before my battery runs out. Resuming the host hibernate system works correctly and the VM shared within WS8 is back to its previous functional State.

    It would be nice and helpful being able to stop or restart the host system and know that the shared virtual machine has been automatically suspended. So now I have to log on to the user account from the host system and open WS8 and manually suspend the virtual machine before you stop or restart the host system.

    Is there a way to have the shared VM automatically suspended when the host system is stop?

    Thank you for your time and attention.

    You can configure the stop action by editing the following file:

    %ProgramData%\VMware\hostd\vmAutoStart.XML

    If you want to configure the action stop for all virtual machines, find the section of under the section. Change it on hold

    If you want to change the action stop for only this one machine virtual, you must first configure this shared VM to be started automatically (in WS, right-click on the item 'VMs shared' in the library, select "manage computers virtual auto-start '). After doing this, manually change the vmAutoStart.xml. Find the entry for the virtual machine in the section (if you have more than one computer configured to autostart virtual, it will take some more digging to understand what VM to change). Change the entry for this virtual machine to hang.

    Save the file. Reboot the host (not auto-start power actions are only made when the host is restarted). Now when stop you the host, WS should suspend the VM (s)

    As always, manually edit the configuration files is not considered supported its use. Save the file before you edit. Adjust at your own risk.

  • Cannot convert a virtual machine while it is powere on or suspended. Shut down and power off the virtual machine before the conversion.

    Hi all

  • HA restarts the virtual machine if the storage connectivity is lost? If how is HA needs to be configured?

    We plan to go forward with a single dual-port HBA in each of our ESX servers. My concern is that the HBA becomes a single point of failure. HA supports restarting the virtual machine which lose connectivity to back-end storage. We did some testing and it does not appear that HA does not handle this. Even when 'enable us VM monitoring' the machine virtual do not restart on other ESX servers in the cluster that they hang just basically. I've read a few articles which seem to indicate that it should work, but I'm not able to get there. Any thoughts there?

    HA checks the availability of default ESX host. There is an option to monitor the heartbeats reviews, as well. Maybe this will do, but sometimes a guest still works for awhile even if the disk is lost. And as for a long time VMware tools send heartbeats...

  • Move the virtual machine in another data store

    I don't know what's going on, I have two data warehouses and I moved my vm from one to the other, I had to create a new virtual machine to import the files migrated, when I opened the store of data for import only saw two files vmdk files, the first 00001 others a single vmdk file that contains 00 001 not opened when you import the second succeeded, but when the server starts, it goes up a very old version, as if it was newly installed windows 2003, I saw in the dishes, delta files files but don't know what to do, I tried to check the Snapshot Manager, but did not find anything there.

    Have you ever tried to fix things? The attached .vmx file points to the correct instant hard file (scsi0:0.fileName = "Cezzanne - 000001.vmdk"), but the parentCID in this hard file is not correct!

    In any case, after replacing "Cezzanne - 000001.vmdk" with that of archive attached, you should be able to restart the virtual machine. BTW. You can delete the file «.lck...» ». This is necessary on a NFS datastore.

    Next time you copy a VM, do not create a new virtual machine. Only delete the virtual machine to inventory before moving and after moving it, click right the VM .vmx file and choose "add to the inventory.

  • ESXi 4.0 on Dell 1850 this host doesn't support VT you have configured the virtual machine to use an operating system 64-bit client.

    Hello

    , I have in 3 data centers Dell 1850, identical hardware configurations.  I installed Esxi 4.0 to the ISO from site Web de VMware dell custom help. He is successfully installed on all servers, without error at all. I've updated them all to the last generation, using VMware vSphere Client. I have a problem with one of the server when I want to use 64-bit machines, he realizes: this host does not support VT you have configured the virtual machine to use an operating system 64-bit client.  However, this host is not able to run 64-bit virtual machines or virtual computer has 64-bit support disabled. For more information, see http://www.vmware.com/info?id=152. I don't understand why I got this, servers are identical, versions of BIOS, firmware, and all updates are the same. There is also a warning in the configuration tab, on the State of health link.

    Thanks in advance for any helpful suggestion.

    Yes according to the description of CPU, it seems that they do not support intel VT:

  • Is it necessary that the guest OS to support SSD if the file of the virtual machine is placed on an SSD?

    Dear,

    I have a plan to set up a file of the virtual machine on an SSD. The host system is windows 10 (on an other SSD, I'll use 2 SSD), it should support the SSD very well.  Then comes the question: should I also install an OS that needs support also guest SSD?

    My opinion is it does not matter since the disk i/o operation is made by host operating system, it is the host operating system which finally determin whick block data will be published (optimization of the disk).

    Am I wrong? Thank you.

    Sorry for the enigmatic answer...

    In your case, the answer is Yes: he cares about the type of media, while the virtual disk is a vmdk (virtual material treaty) and placed in an SSD.

    There are a few cases where you might use a physical disk directly to the virtual machine (called peripheral raw disk or RDM in vSphere environment).

    It will give you hard drives attached

    Get - VM | Hard drive


    It will give you count
