    Dear support

    I am facing problem in Live Migration of Virtual Machine in Windows 2012 of Hyper-V R2 cluster. Here are the details for my current setup.

  • "Unable to connect to MKS" when connecting to the virtual machine shared

    Hello

    I have a handful of Shared VMs Im trying to access remotely with VMware Workstation Pro 12 (same version on the client and the host - two Windows 10 machines). I am able to connect to the host that shares virtual machines, I can see all the virtual machines shared, open the virtual machine (as in it opens in a tab within the workstation) and virtually no action on the virtual machine including all power options, instant, change settings, etc.. The problem is that if I turn on a virtual computer (or connect to an existing virtual machine under tension, I get the following error and Im not able to access the actual console since it remains as a black screen.

    Unable to connect to the MKS: (name of user and password) Login incorrect.

    I also noticed that on the client Windows Event Viewer is to launch the following warning events at the same time that the error in the Workstation has been lifted - Im not seeing any on the host are thrown.

    vmware2.png

    I've seen a lot of posts here with users who run the question and he usually ended up being a network problem. I turned off the Windows Firewall on both machines, checked ports 443 and 902 listening on the host and Im in telnet from the client to the host on port 902. I also saw another suggestion for updating the client Windows hosts file to include [host name] [IP address] and [FQDN of the host name] [ip address], but this subject seems not helped either.

    Suggestions in this regard does not happen what keeps or where to find more information about the cause?

    Thank you!

  • Cannot import Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 with Hyper-V virtual machines to VMware ESXi 4.

    Hi team,

    I use VMware vCenter Converter Standalone to import certain Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 with Hyper-V virtual machines to VMware ESXi 4, using another Windows Server 2008 R2 as the machine Agent Converter. Well, the agent connects to the Windows VM source very well (I used the net use command to create a line of conduct...), perhaps no chance to connect to the computer target VMware ESxi 4 and make the converter doesn't work...

    Following is the error message:

    "Unable to connect to the host specified" from the converter agent machine. " It is perhaps because the host is not available on the network, there is a problem with the network configuration or management on this host services do not react. Check all components of converter to be able to connect.

    So, my question is; is it possible to create a work around (like the net use Windows command above) to make possible the connection of the converter Agent on Linux VMware ESXi 4 machine Windows machine, to directly import the virtual machines of Windows Hyper-V to Linux VMware?

    Thanks in advance,

    It's even easier than that

    Use this: http://www.winimage.com/

    Which will convert *.vhd *.vmdk, so you don't need to do all this... Of course, another way is to start the machines, leaving them on Hyper-V and go through the network and process virtual machine as physical machines and do a P2V on the network...

  • Problem running an existing virtual machine with fusion

    Im trying to run a virtual machine I use with player on my pc. He refuses to perform under the terms of the fusion of ideas?

    Blackdeerhunter wrote: Ive got further system boots to windows and then asks me to activate now what?

    Well, let's see...  Oh yes, activate it!

    BTW this is not a question of VMware itself as Windows product activation is a Microsoft problem whatever we're running Windows on a physical or a virtual machine.  Except run the Boot Camp partition as a Virtual Machine where the VMware Tools manages the database WPA to allow a start both in native and virtual mode, it would be the extent of the share of VMware in the present itself and the rest to you as a user to deal with Microsoft with.

  • Problems with ImageAssist on the machines using SSDS m2 (NOT is)

    Hello guys,.

    first of all, I must admit, I am facing ImageAssist the first time, so maybe I m ask stupid or boring. I tried the search within this Forum, but didn t get results...

    Okay, so here´s I want to do... our new generation of material (E7270, E5570, OptiPlex7040 far, precision 7710) must be distributed to our subsidiaries around the world. Sometimes they must implement a customer, so I want to create a Sysprep Image BASE + APPS, which I can send to these guys here.

    Here´s so what I've done (problem follows when restoring my Image)

    for example allows to take the E5570, 8 GB of RAM, 256 SED m.2SSD. I installed Win7x64 Enterprise with a Microsoft ISO in a virtual machine using VMWare Workstation 11. My VM config: 4 GB of RAM, 60 GB HD, network in bridged Mode, turn off sound and VM printer and here my first question:

    Inside VM:BIOS or EFI Mode and drive hard ACHI or SATA Raid or SCSI mode? OK, I m prepared and tried all the...

    so after installing win7 and .net 4.5.2 (VMWare Tools also, for the use of slides &) and 2 Reg settings with regard to our environment (MaxTokenSize = 65535 and EnableLUA = 0) I created my BASE Image/Snapshot.

    After you add a few packages of software, I created my BASE + APPS (always with VMWare Tools).

    Next step, uninstall VMWare Tools... restart, after this judgment. now boot into DELL's PE and I created our MaintenanceImage to a network drive. So far all is working well, so I used the installation without assistance-creator tool and define our values (name & Company, selectable language, workgroup, computer name must be completed by the regional IT guy, and I checked to copy the profile to the default user profile... that s he)

    Validation tool crossed without moaning, capturing also...

    I sliced two of the Image (about 10 GB) to some 2 GB and copied on our USB key for testing purposes...

    Stick plugged USBPort E5570, restored, added DELL drivers CAB files and after restoration, the E5570 started Win7x64 for the first time... everything worked fine, etcpp... devices to about 90 percent of the first boot, I get the message: "Windows cannot configure one or more system components. TI install Windows, reboot, and re-install Windows.

    Hope someone could snap this suspicion to my face :D

    I also tried a BIOS/MBR Installation with the 7710 of precision using a standard 2.5 "SSD... I didn t get an error or a problem with this one... restroing & syspreping went well

    Waiting for lots of helpful tips to fix this :)))

  • Problem with Workstation 9, Windows 8 and storage spaces

    Hello

    I have currently a strange problem with VMWare Workstation 9 running on Windows 8, when my VMs are hosted on a configuration of storage like a mirror. My Windows VMs work very well, but all my virtual machines to Linux seem to get corrupted after a cycle start and stop a success. When I try to restart, they bomb on me on what seems to be the alteration of the disc. I have attached a filed faulty start of RHEL 6 x 64 for reference.

    Any ideas what may be the cause? In my view, it can be linked to as storage spaces when to take a clean copy of the virtual machine (before it was corrupted) on move on a disk that uses no storage spaces everything works fine.

    What puzzles me is why not Linux virtual machines VMs Windows affect go bad after the start cycle...

    Any help on this would be greatly appreciated,

    François.

    If workstation uses the storage as swap space?

    Try changing the setting to "use only RAM ' or something like that in the settings of the workstation.

  • "bad vmx86.sys" problem with Workstation 8 on Windows 7 x 64

    I just upgraded to Workstation 8 (Windows 7 x 64) and I get the following error when I try to create virtual machines:

    "Could not get the vmx86 driver version: the handle is invalid.". You have an incorrect version of the driver 'vmx86.sys '. Try reinstalling VMware Workstation. Could not initialize the surveillance apparatus. »

    If I do, "Run As Administrator" I can make it work.

    Tried to uninstall and reinstall.

    VMPlayer doesn't seem to work either - even with "Run As Administrator". It just hangs.

    I also noticed that I can't change priority in the preferences settings - unless I do "Run as Administrator". I'm logged in as an administrator account.

    So, it seems to be little usually permissions problem - although it still does not seem fix Player.

    I bet that your firewall is Comodo.

    I had the same caveat! Follow the steps and you will enjoy Workstation without administrator privileges:

    (1) open from Comodo

    (2) go on the defense + Tab

    (3) defense + settings

    (4) run settings

    (5) on Exceptions add C:\Program Files (x 86) \VMware\VMware Workstation\vmware - vmx.exe if you use OS, another C:\Program Files (x 86) 32-bit \VMware\VMware Workstation\x64\vmware-vmx.exe!

    Confirm by pushing OK!

    ...

    ...

    and enjoy your 8 workstation!

    Sorry for my bad English.

    At latest!

  • Data store growing VMFS with the running virtual machine

    Hey, gentlemen.

    Have a quick question. We have configured incorrectly datastore VMFS on VM production, basically, is size of the SAN LUNS to 1.99 and virtual disk was created as thin provisioned and 2 TB.

    vSphere shows no free space. I intend to grow data store, we found 100 GB also on SAN and I have an add on vsphere.

    I'm not sure we need to stop the VM to make this change?

    I guess not, because Guest OS should see no change - drive keep 2 TB, changes will happen only at the level of vSphere.

    If I have good documentation of VMware on VMFS, one of the main benefits of VMFS is:

    http://www.VMware.com/files/PDF/VMFS-best-practices-WP.PDF

    Facilitates the dynamic growth

    Through the use of a volume management layer VMFS allows an interface to storage resources so that several

    types of storage (Fibre Channel, iSCSI and FCoE) can be presented as warehouses of data on which virtual machines can

    resident. What allows a dynamic growth of these storages of data through the aggregation of storage resources provides the

    ability to increase a shared without incurring downtime storage resource pool.

    This means that I didn't stop Guest OS to make such changes?

    Thank you in advance!

    This means that I didn't stop Guest OS to make such changes?

    Yes, you need not shutodown comments and/or host.

    Just check out this recommendation from VMware:

    Note: If the LUN knows a high i/o rate by cultivating the VMFS, the ESX host isn't able to complete the operation. In this case, repeat the operation after hours and when backup operations are not executed. If the problem persists, turn off some of the virtual machines that reside on the LUN, and then try again.

  • Drag &amp; Drop problem with Workstation 9

    Hi I'm under WorkStation 9.0.1 build-894247 on a 64-bit Windows 8 host.

    I'm having a problem with drag-and - drop files between the host and the guest.

    Here's what I found;

    • If I run that high Workstation (IE "run as Administrator") then I can only drag files from the client to the host. Drag files between the host and the guest, I simply "cannot delete here" mouse cursor.
    • If I'm not running workstation high so I can just drag files between the host and the guest. When you drag the client files the mouse cursor stops at the border of the comment window.

    I have all the options set in the settings of the computer prompted virtual isolation.

    I get the same results with various Windows OS such as Linux clients.

    I'd like to at least know if someone else has this problem.

    (Performance of the latest tools 9.2.2)

    I answer to my orig post as Workstation 10 fixed drag & drop the issue.

    I had a client silently stop accepting drops well and had to reboot to get things working again - but I'll keep for a new discussion if he continues to be...

  • Problems after resizing XP virtual machine: a Windows image not valid

    After increasing my Windows XP virtual machine, I can't run Microsoft programs.

    My system

    I am running XP as a virtual disk with Fusion 4.1.3 on a MacBook Pro (OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard) with a drive of 500 GB and 4 GB of RAM.  My virtual machine from Windows XP (formatted FAT) has only 700 MB of free space, so I tried to increase its size from 32 GB to 48 GB.

    What I've done

    1. I increased the size of the HD in merger/disc settings

    2. the virtual machine does not resize automatically.  Messages to OS X Console says repeatedly that the virtual machine was no resizing applications ("' NUMA: auto size request ignored '")

    3. I then used EaseUS Partition Master in Windows XP to increase the use of the newly released hard drive space, but the extra space would never appear after reboot XP

    4. I then tried Partition Wizard, that worked.  So that resizing Partition Wizard was also moving files.

    The problem:

    When I restarted Windows, I got several error messages saying that the dll is not a valid windows image.  I couldn't run all Microsoft programs (Outlook, Excel, etc.) but can run non-Microsoft programs after clicking through many error reports.

    Fortunately, I made a copy of the virtual machine before attempting to resize, so I use it now.  But I lost 12 GB on my Mac hard drive and cannot get enough space in Windows

    Any thoughts out there so that I could get enough space?

    It is good that you made a backup, because even in the best conditions can things and sometimes lack.

    Since you had questions, go right to work, in other words, the first step to actually make the larger virtual hard drive, I have consider doing the following.

    1. ensure that you have a backup full host.  Time Machine is great for Mac OS X but not for Virtual Machines.  For the Virtual Machines, you must make a copy while closed stop, unsprung, and VMware Fusion.  Once you are sure that have everything backed up properly...

    2. use utility disk to verify disk permissions, disk check and optionally repair either or both based on audit reports.

    3. use vmware-vdiskmanager with the -r option to check the integrity of the virtual hard disk.

    4. from the guest operating system in a Windows prompt command use chkdsk /f to check and fix a problem with the Windows file system.

    5. try to resize the virtual hard disk again.

  • Problems of establishing a virtual machine using Microsoft SCCM

    Hello

    I'm trying to deploy a virtual machine with Microsoft SCCM. It works very well - but only if I create the vm on the local disk on the esx server. After a success of creation, I can then migrate the diskfile of a SAN LUN.

    If I try to do the same thing directly in a virtual machine with the diskfiles not on local drives but on the SAN, then the Setup program will fail in most cases. It is not always the same point in the installation program - it can be anywhere in the process of staging by sccm. Seems to be a period of waiting or something and obviously seems to be a problem with the SAN storage...

    ... then... I'm the expert on LAN, or SCCM expert--while hoping, someone else knows this problem and there are probably certain parameters to change to avoid a timeout or something.

    Storage system is HP EVA 4400. ESX is vSphere 4.0.0 208167.

  • Problem with wireless - Vista Network and Sharing Center does not recognize my connection!

    I use the Home Visa software and my network and sharing Center does not recognize my connection but I can access the internet without any problem. Previously, I was using a wireless router Linksys with an old box of AT & T internet with no problems. The problems started after I updated my AT & T internet box that made obsolete the linksys router and now the network share does not connect. I just have the problem of getting the network and sharing device recognizing that I am actually connected to a wireless network. I can't use my printer or share files with other people. I can't get my wireless printer to work if I restart my computer and I have the documents I want printed already sent to the printer. My network and sharing Center also works very well for a few seconds when I start my computer then it turns off again.
