problems with vcenter converter

Not sure where I should this post but thought it was the best.

I'm trying to convert a standalone desktop computer running Win7 Pro.

Conversion powered on the local computer for VM Player 3.x.

When I get to the screen data to copy options, there is nothing listed. (see attatched)

Why are there not thing listed and how I can fix this?  I can't make a virtual machine without a hard drive to copy.

Thank you

Welcome to the community,

I'm not sure, however, it may be worth trying to disable UAC and start the converter using 'Run as Administrator' in the pop-up menu (right click).

  • Problem with vCenter 5.1 (W2K8) & SSO without AD

    Hi all

    I have problems with my first experiences with vC 5.1 / SSO. I have a virtual machine running W2K8 + DNS but no ads. This is what I want and need. 5.0 had no problem with that, but in 5.1, I can't make everything work.

    Installation of SSO, the inventory service and vC (all 5.1), all this hard work and all the Associates services start. However, when I then restart the virtual machine, the vC service does not start, start services very well but no vC. It all started at the session of runtime install, but not after the restart of a virtual machine. By default use SQL Express installation options dbs SSO and vC have been taken.

    vpxd.log has a relevant error of:

    "Failed while trying to connect to the SSO Admin Server: no connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.

    DNS is all right, forward and backward. Despite the warning (attachment), SSO is happy to install without this AD.

    I don't understand why vC post install but then fail to start after reboot.

    Surely the vC (Win) 5.1 is not having to be in an AD domain?

    What Miss me?

    Thank you and best regards,

    I did a few more tests to prove the change the start mode of services could solve the problem.

    Today I install VC with simple installation.
    After installation completed, before the reboot, take a sanpshot of the virtual machine.
    Restart the VC, Vcenter service failed to start as usual.
    Then go back to the snapshot before restarting immediately after installation.
    And changed the start mode of service,

    vCenter single sign on Service - automatic (delayed) automatic
    VMware vCenter Inventory Service - automatic Automatic (delayed)
    VMware vSphere Profile - Driven Storage Service - from Automatic Automatic (delayed)
    VMwareVCMSDS - from Automatic Automatic (delayed)

    then restart VC.
    Services started normally vCenter.

    If the sequence to start the service really matters!

  • Problem with VCenter, and VM of not listed in the use of resources

    We recently had a problem with a power being pulled cable and now things are a little twisted...  We had to reboot our servers (ESX1 and ESX2) ESX and VCenter.   ESX1 said that HA had been disabled and restarting didn't help, so we chose the command to 'Reconfigure for VMWare HA'.

    And now, after he reconfigured, it's what we have: ESX1 12 virtual machines on it, and ESX2 4.  ESX2 shows consumption of the normal resources of the virtual machines that are on, however, ESX1 says that there are 3 VMs on, but none of them use ANY resource.

    I've attached a screenshot of what I'm going to have to explain.  It is not sensible.  I can connect to the VMs that are lit on ESX1 3, but as far as VCenter is concerned, they are not using any CPU or mem...

    Any help, ideas or whatnot would be greatly appreciated!  Thank you!

    Windows is a true multitasking operating system... It can START and LOCK at the same time!

    a few other things you can try would be to shut down a virtual machine, remove from the inventory, then "add to the inventory.

    .. .or restart your vCenter Server Service.

  • Shrink a Linux VM to esxi with Vcenter Converter 4

    Hello

    I spend some time to try to reduce my VM but without real success so far.

    I tried to use vCenter Converter 4.0 to do, but to to esxi esxi, it doesn't show the option in the drop-down list.

    So I tried to export it to Vmware Workstation, and between a 71 GB VM, I had a VM 21 GB, which is much better! However, esxi cannot use format Worstation, and when I try to convert again, I find myself with the initial size of my VM...

    Anyone know how I can shrink my VM in a way that I can still use them on esxi?

    Thank you very much.

    You can use Linux P2V Converter Standalone4.0 to this (share).  You treat just the source of the virtual machine as a physical machine.  Then, you select a smaller size for the individual volumes in the 3rd page of the wizard.

  • Problems with vmware converter

    Hi all..

    I'm trying to 'virtualize' my current PC with vmware converter...

    My PC has windows xp on the C: partition, but the trunk is on the partition E

    I always got this error

    Failed: Could not find the system volume, reconfiguration is not possible

    Here is the log, any help is appreciated...

    Thank you!

    What kind of BONE is the source and partitions machine how much is there?  Partitions that has loaded Windows OS.  I assumed that you have a Windows XP machine with 2 partitions C:\windows and E:\boot so, how does it work if when windows boot?  I don't know on the partition of E:\boot, but if you try the P2V Assistant and only select C:\ drive and it will be fine since its your partition systems and start there, too.  Please specify details.

    Buffer Cache Hit Ratio is the percentage of sql server pages requested and retrieved from the buffer cache without reading disc.

    It is not necessarily a problem. A way to increase the buffer Cache Hit Ratio might be to increase the memory on the virtual computer. If you feel that the performance is not a problem, you can modify the rule so that it is less than 90% so that the rule is triggered, but Microsoft recommends 90 + %.

  • Windows Media Sync pre - problem with MP3s converted to 128 Kbps

    OK, I connect my pre in training mode and it appears in Windows Media Player fine. I copy a lot of music to synchronize (all in MP3 format), defining the conversion to 128 Kbps. All music copy normally at the front. However, in the front music player the only music that appears is music which was already 128 Kbps on my computer library - everything that should be converted to say 226 Kbps up to 128 is not displayed. During playback of the music on the meadow of in WMP, it arises. Even when the Pre opens in player mode in windows Explorer, the files show up, even those who don't appear in the music player on the pre. All MP3s are there on the pre, but those who had to be converted to the size of 128 kbit/s does not appear in the music player. If I converted more large MP3s size up to 128 and synchronization, they appear in the music player, but who will use all of the memory on the Meadow quickly enough. What gives? Any ideas? I prefer really do not have to use iTunes, assuming it would be same this problem.

    mikeweb, I do not ask me again for you, but are you sure that Windows Media Player is not ripping the songs in the default .wma format?  Unless you change the tab "Rip Music" in the section Tools/Options of Windows Media Player by default .mp3 songs with being ripped to wma.

    The Pre will refuse to play songs in .wma format, but given that you use flash, the song will be like a player play through Windows Media Player easily even if it is a .wma format!

    BTW, pulling the cable while a connection is active is not a really good idea... others indicated problems caused by this action.  The good way is to "eject" the pre through the USB Windows icon in the tool bar before disconnecting.

  • Problems with RAW converter

    Can someone help, please?

    My camera is a Canon SX 50, which is able to take pictures in JPEG, RAW and JPEG and RAW.

    I want to take photos in RAW.

    I use Photoshop 5.5 and Windows Vista Home Premium.

    The Adobe's DNG Converter lists Dng Converter 7.3 for my camera.  But I can't seem to get my

    photos in the converter before transfer to photoshop

    I can not for now allow me to update my computer

    Suggestions, please?

    The dng converter is working on a file folder, not an individual file. If you need to put all the files you want to convert into a single folder. Registration of Camera Raw for this camera says that the extension should be CR2. CRW is an old format. I wonder if that is the question. Just for fun. change the extension of the file to CR2 and try to convert. I duplicate the file first and play with a duplicate file.

  • I need some help please (web Vsphere client connection problem with Vcenter)

    Dear professionals

    I can not connect to the server via the customer web vicenter.

    I have installed and configured the following successfully:

    -esxi5.5

    -Win 2008 server1 (installed on AD)

    -Server2 Win 2008 joined to the domain, then I installed on: sso, inventory, customer web Vsphere and vcenter server service

    as you can see in the attached photos, when I double click on the client vsphere of wen I should be able to log on to the server vcenter, but I couldn't do it.

    do not forget that I logged Win 2008 server2 as a domain administrator, then I installed sso, inventory, customer web Vsphere and vcenter server service

    the WebClient service is runningand I tried https://server.example.com:9443 / vsphere client.

    There are more than two things, I noticed:

    -When I turned the web customer service I got the certificate error (see photo).

    -When I typed nslookup in the domain controller I got the error message.  web vsphere client error is related to the DNS error in the domain controller?


    Please see the pictures attached.

    Please tell me what to do if you have any idea or what is the cause of this problem.

    Please let me know as soon as possible because I've stuck to that point where I can't connect to the via customer web vsphere vcenter.

    Best regards

    Please register these two servers to the DNS entry field. and make sure both servers firewall set OFF mode.  If the production environment please check the network connection by using the network firewall team.

  • vCenter 5.5 | In case of disaster, lost database tries to upgrade, vCenter blue screen and now problems with vCenter rebuilt.

    There was a bug in vCenter 5.5 (go figure) where he tried to access a file in "C:\users" for some strange reason, she refused to install/configure SSO.  It took hours of VMWare support to force it to install by copying files autour in hand, trying to get the installer to recognize the file she needed to 'C\users '.

    Now, I have vCenter 5.5, with a new database and service WebClient is not configured correctly.  On the page where it asks to run under a local system account or a domain account, I've specified a domain account.  Well, the field is not the name of the server so I knocked on the server.local domain name FULL instead of the server's FULL domain name.  Now when I visit the URL of the web service client it says it cannot connect to vCenter he's trying to access the domain.local not server.domain.local.

    VMWare support tells me I have vCenter UNINSTALL and reinstall to fix.  This is ridiculous.  They try to tell me there is no other way to change this setting.  Are you kidding me?

    Ideas of the community?  VMWare help was very helpless in front of this whole situation.

    Thank you

    Cody

    It turns out that this error during installation is created by the presence of one! my user name.  Support said they will include a fix for this in a future release.  They also said the errors generated during installation could be ignored.  Everything seems not to work regardless of errors generated during the installation process (simple installation).

    Best practices so that a VC Server VM on a host of multi with SAN storage environment must be available for the use of compatible hardware for VMotion or VCA VMotion.  If you do not have an environment that allow VCA to then I would say that the best practice is to have the VC server on a physical server - it can even be installed on XP.

  • Problems with vCenter 5

    Hello together

    At the moment I am trying to run the latest version 5.0.2 against our vCenter Server 5. Unfortunately I jump an error for the mistake.

    H:\VMware\Scripts\HealthCheck > vmwarevSphereHealthCheck.pl - version

    vSphere SDK for Perl version: 5.0

    'VmwarevSphereHealthCheck.pl' script version: 5.0.2

    vCenter 5 build 455964

    Guests of ESXi 4.1 U2

    And I don't understand why I get this error:

    Cannot call method 'take' on a value not set in H:\VMware\Scripts\HealthCheck

    \vmwarevSphereHealthCheck.pl line 2540.

    I saw this line in the source code, but my knowledge around script isn't very good so... no idea!

    I would be really grateful for some tips

    Kind regards!

    Well, that's what I thought, looks like 'allowedHosts' is not defined, and this value is not always guaranteed to define (should have taken that earlier). Because that is not defined, take is not valid. I'll need to update the script

    In the meantime, you can make the following change to get through the script:

    {if (defined ($Rule-> allowedHosts))}

    {if ($Rule-> allowedHosts-> allIp)}
    $allowedIPs = 'all ';
    } else {}
    My $ipNetworks = $rule-> allowedHosts-> IPNAINAIMobile;
    {foreach(@$ipNetworks)}
    $allowedIPs. = $_-> network. "/" . $_-> LG. ", ";
    }
    }

    }
