• Problem with VMWare Workstation combo, .vhd virtual drives and physical disks in the sector of size 4K?

  All,

  I suspect something wrong with some of my virtual machines.  I have been using these virtual machines for a while, and I see some weird behaviour recently.

  I see a lot of corruption in the virtual hard disk (.vhd based).  CHKDSK automatically gets performed many large files such as Oracle datafiles get damaged etc...  It all seems quite random and inconsistent, but I am using .vhd virtual machines in VMWare Workstation for years without problem.  This problem is new, and hard drives are basically unstable.

  I * think * (and I'm totally off base) that is perhaps the issue with my new external hard drives.  These discs have a 4 KB sector size, without e512.  Thanks to this architecture of hard drive, don't mount not the tools of Microsoft or manupulate .vhd files on these disks.  The questions seem to go away if I switch to vmdk or switch to the physical hard disk size-one-sector 512kb.  Because errors are not compliant, that I don't really have a way to document/prove that is the case, but it seems to be.

  I use version 9.0.0 on Windows 7 Workstation, and the guest is Windows Server 2008R2.

  My question is:

  (1) what meaning?

  (2) how I prove/document, since it is a contradiction?

  (3) is this a known problem?

  (Btw, switching HDD's vmdk is not an option in our case due to an obscure legal agreement with Microsoft.  I have to distribute my VMs in vhd format, even if they are designed to run on VMWare...)

  -> Adam

  These discs have a 4 KB sector size, without e512.

  (I've highlighted "without e512" in "BOLD" to key in my answer to the host operating system.)

  -L'OS is Windows 7 Enterprise

  According to the political support for the 4 K sector hard drives in Windows, Windows 7 does not support the native 4 K (logical 4 k sector size) but it does not support Advanced Format or 512th (size of logical sector physical and 512 bytes of 4 K) and that is can be the question.

• WIN a key problem in vmware workstation, using a linux machine and a windows XP guest.

  Hello

  I'm using vmware workstation 6.5 on a linux kernel 2.6.27 host and I installed a windows XP as a guest, when I press the down arrow key, think the comments is a SUPER (WIN) key, how can I solve this problem?

  but when I use rdesktop to connect at this prompt, key perform normally.

  Without more information, it is probably related to the known bug xkeymap.keycode in my computer at the moment.

  You can find a solution: HERE

  Or in the Sub-forum of the workstation, just do a search for "xkeymap.keycode" or something...

  I hope this helps!

• Problems with VMware virtual Center 2.5.0 and ESX 3.5.0 123630

  I lost connection to my SAN over the weekend and restarted my entire stack. Everything came to life, except a host server ESX is grayed out and shows disconnected my cluster of Virtual Center. If I right click on the host, everything is gray except 'Add alarm, add Permission, summary report and Performance report'.  I was able to connect directly to the host and was able to start the VM on the host machines, but my question is how to run in my cluster Virtual Center? I have no option to remove or connect.

  Thank you

  try restarting your vCenter Server Service

  ... also, you can restart pass and/or management agents vCenter on the host in question to the service console

  > service mgmt-vmware restart

  > service vmware-vpxa restart

• Host of Ubuntu 12.04, OSX 10.7 comments. Problems with VMWare folder sharing :(

  Hello

  first of all, I have problems with copy/extraction of files in OSX in this folder. For example in the way to decompress. If I use other tools like Keka it works. No doubt Keka don't try to put things like times etc. ?

  Unpack the errors:

  creation: prog/bin/developer /.
  chmod (Directory attributes) error: operation not permitted

  inflating: prog/bin/Developer/test.dll chmod (file attributes) error: operation not permitted
  (warning) cannot set time

  It also seems that some applications have problems with the name of the directory. I guess that whitespace in files shared VMware. Why is - that someone would use white-space in such a record? Unfortunately, VMWare automatically chooses this name.

  Error when trying to load the project "/ Volumes/VMware Shared Folders/myproject/project.sln": the directory name is invalid.

  How can I fix these problems?

  Thank you!

  First VMware does not support running any version of Mac OS X in VMware Workstation and secondly the Apple of SLA for Mac OS X Lion, specifically article 2B (iii), must it be virtualized while running under Mac OS X Lion himself like a lot less than all of the other requirements of installed on the Apple brand hardware SLA etc.  So since VMware Workstation runs under Windows/Linux and your steps of virtualization of Mac OS X Lion on Apple hardware brand while running under Mac OS X Lion, then help may be provided to you that he might / should be considered as a violation of the VMware Community terms of use in the use of the scenarios you use OS X Lion.

• Display with VMware Workstation 9 and Enterprise of Windows 8 comments bug

  Hello

  I just installed VMware Workstation 9.

  I created and installed a VM of Windows 8 Enterprise comments.

  Everything works fine, except that when I go to the Windows 8 settings via bar charm (not via the desktop...), the display setting menu is occasionally screwed up!

  This problem appeared just after I installed the VMware Tools in the guest OS. Before that, there was no display problem. Believe me, I've taken care of that by testing entirely.

  My OS is Windows 7 Ultimate. My processor is an Intel Core i7 870 (4 cores) and I have 8 GB of memory. My graphics card is an AMD ATI 5850 with the latest drivers.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  PS: This is not one type of bug in time. I can repeat this every time I have to create a virtual machine Windows 8 Enterprise comments. The problem was also there with VMware Workstation 8. My guess is that VMware tools are buggy, at least with certain type of graphics compared to Windows 8...

• Problems with Gmail in Firefox version 20.0.1.

  I never had no problem with Gmail before this version. Now when I want to create a new message window composition and the home page will turn into a blank white window. It is titled as if it were from the Inbox, but there are no links or words that appear in the window. I can not type in this window either. If I'm unable to send email from my office.

  Also, I can only read new messages. When I try to read older messages that I had saved for your information, I can longer open those.

  Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

  • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe or make changes.
  • https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/safe+mode

  You can delete all data stored in Firefox with a specific area through "Forget this Site" in the context menu of the entry of the history (history > view history or view > sidebar > history) or via the subject: permissions page.

  Using "Forget this Site" will delete all data stored in Firefox in this area as bookmarks, cookies, words of past, cache, history, and exceptions, so be careful and if you have a password or other data from this area you don't want to lose so take note of these passwords and bookmarks.

  You can't recover from this "forget" unless you have a backup of the affected files.

  It has no lasting effect, so if come back you on such a 'forgotten' site, then the data of this Web site will be saved once more.

• Problem installing VMWare Workstation on a Server Windows 2012

  Hello

  I have problems when trying to install VMWare Workstation on a Server Windows 2012. Windows Server is Amazon EC2 environment and a generic image extended release.

  The problem is that the installtion process fails because of "Hyper-V" during installation, but after investigating the option "Remove roles and features" I can see that it is not installed.

  Is there any fixes for this issue?

  I enclose three screenshots for you pleasure.

  Regards, Ray...

  Hello Ray,

  Welcome to the VMware community forums.

  You run an EC2 instance that has just 615 MB memory installed?

  It's kind of a weird for a host, much too low for Amazon memory configuration, even be profitable.

  I think that your server is running UNDER Hyper-V, for example. It is probably a Virtual Machine.

  You can easily check that yourself by running the script from this site:

  How Hyper-V to: detect if you are inside a virtual machine

  If it's a Hyper-V virtual computer then I don't think you can install VMware Workstation on the virtual machine and run the nested clients.

  You could do the opposite (invited running hyper-V in a workstation virtualized on vSphere) but is not very fast.

  As you have no control over which platform virtualization Amazon use for their windows servers, I'm afraid you will have to go for a dedicated server instead of a virtual machine.

  Hope this helps,

• Disadvantages with VMware Workstation (7) running on a server rack Xeon?

  Hello

  We intend to run VMware Workstation on my company (7) on a server rack Xeon based (the next generation of Xeon, i.e. Beckton/Nehalem-EX, with 8 cores, planned in the 1st quarter of 2010), and then access all of these virtual machine guests (based on Windows, both the server and desktop kind/flavor) by separate remote desktop connections direct to them.

  I had a very hard time, trying to find out if there is (large or small) disadvantages with this approach?

  We do not want to use Vmware Server for this, because its characteristics (for example with respect to snapshots) are lower than those of VMware Workstation, and nor do we want to use ESXi, because we always want to run Windows as a host on the server operating system.

  Is VMware Workstation our best choice then, and there will be no significant disadvantage? I think it's as if there is a missing in the VMware portfolio, product i.e. namely I miss a server product with all the features of VMware Workstation, which still runs on a different host OS, what am I?

  In any case, again, the main question is:

  This plan of ours is stupid, and in this case how should we best solve it? Is there really an advantage by using VMware Server instead of VMware Workstation in this situation and in this case more exactly what?

  Any input or answers will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

  VMware Workstation on a good Windows installation will do you fine.

  Ideal if you conclude that the MS-host in this day you don't need no matter what Antivirus or firewall.

  Then such a facility will do what you expect.

  I wouldn't consider VMserver - workstation surpasses VMserver my experience

  1) update your nVidia/software drivers to the latest version for your model video card + operating system.

  (2) check that the equipment is not defective.

• Problem with El Captain (5.1.7 server) and the management of permissions

  Hello world

  I have a big problem with our Mac Mini Server (El Captain) and the server program.

  In recent weeks, the server didn't give the permissions of a folder.

  for example:

  Mr. X had permission to read and write to a folder.
  Mr Y too.

  Mr. X has create a new folder one record something in it.

  Mr Y had the permission to read or write to the folder create Mr. x. But he should have.

  Or

  Mr. X has save a file to a folder

  When he opens it again it is write protected and cannot be replaced.

  So you have to save under a different name in the same folder.

  And every time he save/close the file.

  Anyone know what could be the problem?

  Thank you

  Greetings from the Germany

  Chris

  My guess:

  A few weeks ago someone messed with the permissions on your server and made a mistake. So, you got an inappropriate list ACL (Access Control), which is rampant in the file and must be removed or fixed.

  This phenomenon was linked to your video driver (atikmpag.sys) /DirectX.  I would completely remove the current driver and install the latest driver available.

• I have a problem with the simulation in Matlab 6.5 and LabVIEW for PID controllers

  I have a problem with the simulation in Matlab 6.5 and LabVIEW. I have a few methods for granting regulators PID in MATLAB to go but not of LabVIEW. Degree of international teams of two transfer but when I passed to the fourth degree is no longer working. We have changed the formula to calculate the parameters for the fourth year and gave me some good values for assignment of Matlab, but when I put on LabVIEW are not resolved. the formulas are available in PDF format and are. Please help me and me someone if possible. Thank you
  Lim.4 generation in comparison methods and the MATLAB program settings are for the service of transfer to the second degree.

  Hello Lascarica,

  I noticed that you are using the screw of PID. Gains on these screws are based on TIME instead of GAIN. You should be able to build a PID regulator and vary the gains and then compare the results.
