• How to disable the device Alias in the profile of the host

  Hi all

  Could someone tell me how this is acutally done, documentation VMwares seems to go in the circle on the subject:

  VMware KB: Remediation of host profile fails with an error device alias

  Apparently if you have guests who are not identical, but you still want to use the host profiles to configure items on a new host you can disable the device alias but they never say how.  The closest thing is to change the profile of the host and remove the sub profiles do not require you, I found, but it does not work.

  Any help with this would be greatly affect.

  Thanks again,

  Thought that it

  Just wrap everyone is facing it:

  

  Simply remove the Alias Configuration of device in the profile of the host and this error will disappear.  Yet only once if your hosts are not exactly the same.

• Profiles of the host

  If I install ESXi 5.1 on a new host. Can I ask my host profile that was created using ESX 4 Host.

  Please suggest...

  No you can't. If you went to a former host to the version 5.1 which do not have the host applied profile, you can create a new profile of the host of this host.

  Basically, the profile of the host's specific version for major versions 4.0, 4.1, 5.0, 5.1. Even if you manage to apply an older profile for a new host things might break everything.

  An example: how would host ESXi 5.1 know service console ports? He only knows vmkernel ports.

• See the profile of the host Application

  I just want to check that vCenter 5.1 (b) Auto deploy does not apply the profile of the host, he attaches it only. I understand that IP address entry/configuration is necessary when the profile of the host application, but I was wondering if it was possible to automate even that. I can't think how that would be accomplished but thought that I would check to see if anyone had discovered some creative automation.

  As long as the profiles of the host requires any input it will not apply and ESXi will remain in maintenance mode.

  Here's what you need: http://blogs.vmware.com/vsphere/2011/09/sample-scripts-for-automating-auto-deploy.html. I use the ad - update.ps1 a script pre fill the host profiles answer file and it really works.

  MAC addresses will be automatically generated if it is not specified.

• Beginner question - download the version of the host and sort by host name and version

  Hello

  I'm trying to get the version of the host of my hosts in vCenter and then sort the output in a table by name and version, but I'm pretty new to powershell and I have zero programming background, so I can't understand it.

  What I got so far is the following;

  Get-vmhost | % {(Get-vue $_.ID).} Config.Product} | Tri-objet fullname | format-table FullName

  You get the version of the software to all of my guests and sorting in a list of the version of the software (fullname).  However because get-vmhost | % {(Get-vue $_.ID).} Config.Product} does not include the host name in its release, I can't find a way to include the hostname in my production.

  Can anyone help?

  Thank you

  You can do something like this

  get-vmhost | Get-View | select Name,@{N="Build";E={$_.Config.Product.FullName}} | `
  sort-object -Property Build | format-table
  

  On the Select-Object cmdlet, you can use literals hash that will allow you to run complex expressions.

  If you want the output sorted by host name, you can do

  get-vmhost | Get-View | select Name,@{N="Build";E={$_.Config.Product.FullName}} | `
  sort-object -Property Name | format-table
  

  Or like this (which is a bit faster)

  Get-View -ViewType HostSystem | select Name,@{N="Build";E={$_.Config.Product.FullName}} | `
  sort-object -Property Build | format-table

• Profiles of the host cannot create, license error.

  I tried to right click on a host, or just create a new profile and select a host and I get the same rror.

  License not available to perform the operation.

  The Vsphere 4 enterprise license for host XXXXX does not include profiles of the host.  Update the license.

  Then it is said in the recent tasks: license not available to perform the operation?

  I thought that the enterprise license came with host profiles?  I didn't liked company was necessary.

  You must have Enterprise more than license for the host profiles

• Workstation 9 - slow network performance between the host and guest

  I am running windows 8 on the host and installed by 9 trial. Then installed windows 8.1 as a comment system.

  I'm a slow, very slow network between the two.

  If I send files to and from the computer with another guest, transfers are normal, but if I try the same files between the host and the guest, they are really slow.

  I use a bridge connection.

  I read elseware to disable the following on the guest card:

  Large Send Offload v2 (IPv4)

  Large Send Offload v2 (IPv6)

  But that did not help.

  Thoughts?

  Maybe then try Hyper-v, it help you better.

• Difference between the hosts and virtual machines

  Happy new year!

  I guess that's a stupid question, but I don't know the answer to it.

  I created pools from VM. Some jobs in the pool are hosts and some virtual machines. What is the difference between the hosts and virtual machines. I thought I could only create virtual machines, but I guess I could create hosts as well. -What happened?

  Thanks for your help.

  where does say desktops are hosts?  A host is usually referring to an ESXi server.  A virtual machine is just the guest OS running on the host computer.  A pool is a group of VMs that can extend over several hosts.

  I upgraded from Dreamweaver CS4 to CS6. but now when I want to download, I "MFP error - cannot establish a connection to the host. I spent hours with the technician of the host and we can't find the error. I reinstalled DW4 and it connects to accommodate perfectly. Anyone else seen this problem?

  Mac OS 10.8.5

  
  None of these issues are causing the error in DW CS6. We double-checked all of them and we did everything right. Also I have exactly the same SiteSetup in DW CS4 and that works perfectly well. Might need to factor 6 which did not exist in the 4? Something that is not in the SiteSetup but in a hidden dialog box?

  I can also download my host using Fetch, a third party FTP. And like I said that DW CS4 works very well. So the problem is not with my host, sound with DW CS6 in particular.

  You are most likely missing something fairly simple (some goofy box cache you in some menus random). The best way to solve this problem, without playing 20 questions...

  1 open the site in DWCS4 and go to Site > Manage Sites > export to create a your site settings .ste file.

  2. close DWCS4 and open DWCS6

  3. go to the Site > Manage Sites > Import to import the .ste file to create a new site at DWCS6

  This will create an exact copy of your CS4 settings in CS6. If it still does not work, let know us and someone should have another idea for you.

• Configure the host and the VM on two separate wireless networks

  Hello community, I was a browser for a long time, but this will be my first post.

  I would like to begin by saying that I have always found the answer I was looking for by browsing these forums and that I browsed discussions thereon and consulted the chapters regarding virtual networks in the manual workstation 7.1, but at this stage were still unable to solve my problem.

  The scenario:

  I'm a small business working in a House (upstairs) / hookah lounge (bottom). We recently had a second internet connection (WORK), Internet home of my family (HOME), to provide our customers with a free wi - fi. I would use the connection of WORK (during our hours of downtime) in a Ubuntu VM for folding and seeding of torrents. I want to put this far on a network traffic will not affect the other.

  The network:

  SE host: Windows 7 Pro 64-bit

  (Host) NIC: Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG (Mini PCI)

  VM: Ubuntu 10.04 on VMWare Workstation 7.0.0 build-203739

  NIC (VM): Alfa awus036h (USB)

  
  

  The current configuration:

  Network connection is made, the State of replication physical physical network is unchecked.

  The Alfa is connected to the virtual machine and is no longer present on the list of the network adapters in Windows.

  It seems that I have to manually disable the "auto eth 1" interface or the virtual machine using the internet connection in host rather than the network of your choice that the Alfa connects to in VMWorkstation. The speed of the internet with eth auto 1 is connected is quick and consistent, but using it defeats the purpose. Strangely, when I go to network connections, under the "last use" for "eth 1 auto ' it is said 'never '.

  When "eth 1 car" is disconnected, it seems that the virtual machine uses the network wireless connected to the Alfa. But the internet speed is very slow and inconsistent. On downloads, the speed varies considerably; Also, it remains at 0 kb/s for a while before going to 80 KB/s, then works his way down to 0 kb/s again.

  Possible solutions:

  1. it's a driver problem for the Alfa inside the VM environment all this time?

  2 just misunderstood how to set up this kind of virtual network?

  3 is it possible to get the desired configuration by filling the WORK and VMnet0/1/8?

  * Note: Only VMnet1 and VMnet8 appear on the Windows network connections, however isn't VMnet0 bridged one responsible for networking?

  4. upgrade to the current version of the desktop would be useful?

  5. do this problem originally because of some settings on the router?

  * Note: The AP is close enough to provide a signal strength of 85-90%

  Sorry to be so talkative, I just wanted to be as clear as possible because I'm still a beginner to learn more about virtualization.

  Thank you in advance, as always, your help is greatly appreciated.

  First of all, I must say that when I did this last response, I've been on my Mac and I thought the configuration of a host of Windows XP however outside the nomenclature of the names of the host network settings dialog box the rest stands as it is on a host Windows 7 as described below, including a picture as an attachment.

  On a Windows 7 x 64 host with two network adapters, each on a different subnet and VMware Workstation 7.1.3 installed with the editor of virtual computer network configured for VMnet0 and VMnet2 jumpered separately to one of the host of NIC and I have not changed the settings for Windows 7 host NIC-1 and have network/Internet connectivity to the host of this NETWORK adapter as shown in the picture of Google in Internet Explorer on the host computer.  In VMware Workstation 7.1.3 I have a Linux Guest configured to use VMnet2, which is filled in the settings and the Windows 7 host NIC-2 have all with the exception of VMware Bridge Protocol unchecked and have network/Internet connectivity in the guest as indicated by Google in a browser.

  From the perspective of connectivity network between the host and the guest by NIC - 2 on the host computer when all with the exception of VMware Bridge Protocol unchecked there is no connectivity between the two on this subnet because there are no protocol at stake to allow the conversation to take place.

  So theoretically and in practice what I said previously, but didn't were not expressly with a Windows 7 host in mind, nevertheless what I said is true and accurate, as evidenced by world real test/use by what I said and with the image attached herein.

  FWIW Windows 7 has been configured with the default settings and the only changes to the host's network were those made during the installation of VMware Workstation 7.1.3 so with the configuration I discussed with the attached picture, there is no reason why the host and the guest cannot be on different physical networks and each network/Internet connectivity based on the information I have provided and they be isolated from each other by being on separate physical networks.

  That said, even if they can be isolated by being on separate physical networks can still can connectivity between the 2 through VMware shared folders it it turned on and of course & slide and other services so if absolute isolation is necessary to the point where it can be, and the guest still operating system run on a Virtual Machine in the host you would need to disable the Backdoor for VMware Tools cannot provide shared folders on VMware, & glide and other services.  So if you need this isolation level let me know and I will provide additional information to complete it.

• Is it posible to allow access between the host and virtal machine without wired network?

  I want to use my laptop to show him that I did in the virtual work to other people at my home.

  My virtual machine is filled to the physical network adapter and use the static IP address.

  Brad

  Setting of the virtual machine: filled

  Change that to each host only (what Continuum called VMnet1) or NAT (VMnet8).  Both use a separate virtual NETWORK card to connect the physical computer virtual host, independent of any NETWORK adapter on the host.

  ... Since the machine host (win7) could not get IP, ping fail to VM (192.168.1.5)...

  Because the connection between the guest and the host is through a separate NETWORK card, you must use the 'other' IP address.  Access a prompt on the host computer and type IPCONFIG to view the IP address of VMnet1 and VMnet8 NIC.  Then use this IP address instead of 192.168.1.5.

  And when you have changed the network management modes (i.e. of bridged to host-only), Windows does not automatically renew its IP address.  The virtual NETWORK card uses a different subnet if you need to renew your DHCP lease or change your static IP address to work with the new subnet.
