• Question about the subscription renewal for vSphere lab Essentials home

  First post on the forum here.  My apologies if this isn't the right place for a question like this.

  I have a lab at home that I have set up using the "VMware vSphere 5 Kit Essentials" that I had bought on the VMware online store.  It was a pretty fun because it let me familiarize themselves with the technology that I use at work without the same consequences for the mistakes of the project.

  To be honest though, I have never much thought about support and subscriptions for it... Setup should really just have to learn and be the main server for my house projects.  The cost for me to buy the Kit of Essentials has been a little more than $500 a year ago, and it seems that my still currently active subscription (my account displays "subscription only" for the Essentials Kit) allows me to download the latest patches and maybe even upgrade to a new major version in the future.  I would like to continue the subscription, as this seems to be more profitable that leave on the subscription and then renew... compared to the initial $ 500, a one or three year renewal looks pretty good - and I'd get to continue to be on the latest versions of the vSphere Essentials.

  I thought it would be as simple as clicking on renew somewhere on my account, but that begins to not look like an option.  I think that I am driven to get in touch with a business partner for the subscription renewals (is this sounding right?).  This seems a bit much for me for a small laboratory at home like mine.  Is the only way to renew a subscription via a partner company?  If I'm completely off track here, please let me know.  If I'm here, does anyone know (or recommend) a partner company that manages small renewals as mine would be?

  Maybe I'm hesitant for nothing, but I thought I would ask those who understand the subscription and support better than me.

  Thank you very much for the help!

  To answer my own question, I discovered that for users with contracts less than $3,000... is it possible to make a renewal online without the need to go through a partner.  It turns out that the link to the online renewal page is available through the 60, 30, 15 days notice in advance of the emails that are sent to the holder of the account (which is how I found it).  The page renewal me related to this FAQ PDF that I found useful.  I was able to successfully renew my subscription from the link.

  The important bits for me were the following (from the FAQ):

  ====

  Q: clients access renewals online from VMware.com or My VMware?

  A: access to the online renewal platform is by a "direct link" sent to clients through the electronic communication of renewal.

  Q: when VMware will send me the link of renewal online?

  R: the link for customers to renew online will appear on reminders e-mail sent 60-30-15 days prior to the expiration of the contract.

  Q: can customers renew all contracts renewal online?

  A: customers will be able to renew those contracts to a total value of less than $3,000 USD only. Customers will have the option of

  move to a higher level of service, or a longer term, as you wish.

  Hope that helps future lab home amateurs like me.

• Question about the database to use with ESX and Labmanager

  Hello

  Finally my company is buying a permit for Labmanager and ESX server using Labmanager to our tests.

  We had a question about the database that we use for the actual installation.

  Could we use MY - SQL? Or that we have the olbigation to install a SQL or Oracle DB for the whole system to work?

  We prefer to use MY_SQL because it is open-source and will cost less to use for us.

  Thanks in advance for the answer and please excuse my bad English, I'm french spoke first.

  Lab Manager installs SQL Express as part of the installation and use. If you install also Virtual Center as part of your deployment of Lab Manager (do not use an existing VC server), you can use the database SQL Express is included for small installations of ESX, but MY SQL is not an option. You can search the databases supported in the installation guide for what version you deploy.

• Re: Question about the display driver for Satellite L850

  So, I bought a Satellite L850 as twe weeks and I am yet to know which driver do I need.
  I mean, it's better is one that comes with Windows Update or do I need to download it myself? I can watch videos and play games pretty decently while I don't mind so far.

  > I mean, it's better is one that comes with Windows Update or do I need to download it myself?

  The Toshiba driver page driver is usually the right one. Updated the and designed for the use of the laptop.
  But if don t have problems even while playing the game, don t change. You know: never change a system running ;)

• Re: Question about the BIOS update

  Hello

  just tried to install the latest updates of BIOS (Vista laptop on my Equim) and am getting error messages saying: I have the wrong ROM? Tried to use bothe the 32 and 64 bit ones.
  Any suggestions...?

  This is the error that I got when I tried to apply the update after reinstalling my Satellite Pro P200 last weekend. I remembered that I applied the update, a week earlier, thus interpreted the message in this sense that the ROMA had already been flashed with the new BIOS format.

• Questions about the upgrade memory for gateway P55C-200

  It comes from an old computer from 1997. I'm trying to update and upgrade for the treatment of text and with older games who have worked on it, even if a bit slower that I liked. MDK is a favorite. I add that a little more RAM will help. It has windows 95 on it. He is currently in good working condition. I have a perfectly good printer and a scanner that I can't use it on my other computers with operating systems newer, but which works well on this one. The computer has a card? IRE 32meg with a spare slot, CPU Pentium 200 HZ and a 4G IDE hard drive.

  What type of card m? IRE this computer accepts it and how can I add? The existing memory card has no info about it. I visited the manufacturing sites of memory several, and they come in white for this computer only. I think maybe it's SDRAM PC66, but I don't know. Any information would be appreciated.

  I just ordered two 128 meg sticks, clock 4, CL3, PC66. Who will be my max at the limit of my system to 256 meg. I still don't know whether or not the card memory factory was PC66, as there was no label on it, and my manual is non-specific, because it covers a group of computers that use the same series of motherboard. The seller did some research and said the Board recommended will work for me. He gave me a link http://panam.gateway.com/s/motherbd/intel/m00260/m0026023.shtml that my Board is covered by the listed series. I guess in a week or so I'll know. Thank you all for your help.

• HP Pavilion dv4-1120br: doubts about the BIOS update for my model with the operating system current instaled.

  Hello

  I have a HP Pavilion dv4-1120br, I know that this model of HP laptop is old, but I instaled the 64 bit of Windows 10 on my machine and saw that my BIOS is version F.30 and the last of them available on the site of HP F.66 has.

  The problem is that this model is not suport for Windows 10 because, as I said, is too old. Can I download and run the update of the BIOS for Windows 7 64-bit available in the Web site, or I need to downgrade my OS to Windows 7, update the BIOS and then pass it back to Windows 10?

  Thanks for the help!

  Cantarino

  Hello;
  
  Let me welcome you on the HP forums!
  
  Your second proposal is correct - as the updates to the BIOS on the HP site are specific to the OS version and if you try to run one for Win7 in Win10, it will refuse to run.

  Good luck

• Question about the upgrade memory for my Satellite M40-307

  Sorry for the newbie question. But if I have 512 MB of memory for the time being, what are my upgrade options?

  Do I have to buy pairs of memory? So I can or buy 2 x 1 GB = 2 GB, or 2 x 512 MB = 1 GB + 512 existing. Or can I say just buy a single 512 MB or 1 GB chip?

  Since no one wants to answer:
  1. check if your laptop supports Dual Channel Ram (it should be, but just see the manual to be sure)
  2. knowledge of what type of RAM you have. This will add or remove a possibility of upgrade

  The thing with Dual Channel is, that you have the best performance if you use 2 RAM of the same type (really of the same type: company, size...)
  you could:
  3. Add a 512 MB of RAM of the same type you have
  3 b. buy 2 pieces of new RAM of the same type (1 GB + 1 GB, or 2 + 2 GB) and do not forget that your laptop supports this quantity (once again: manual to check)

  You will also find in the manual, if your computer supports DDR or same DDR2 RAM (faster)

  If you have lost your manual, you can download it here on the toshiba Web page

  I hope I could help a little.

• Questions about the BIOS update and battery charge on Satellite M30 104

  Hey,.
  I try to update my BIOS, but it does not work because my battery won't charge any more, if a window always tells me that my battery is not enough. Yet, the reason why I'm updating my BIOS is that I read in a forum that might solve my problem of battery charging.
  I'm fairly certain that the battery is not the problem itself: I bought a new battery, it worked for 10 minutes once or twice, then again the load stop completely.
  If anyone knows what the problem is or how to update my BIOS, please...

  Hello Celia

  I am not a technician, but as far as I know, BIOS has nothing to do with charging the battery. In my opinion, there are some problems with e-procurement (electronic load). Sorry, but I imagine that you must contact the partner in your country.

  They have diagnostic tools and it can be verified. Please call and simply explain the situation.

  Good luck!

• Satellite M70-122: Question about the necessary drivers for Win XP Pro

  Hello
  I formatted my Satellite M70-122 in order to install Win XP - Pro and so I lost all drivers and programs pre installed. It seems that the recovery CD is of no use in this case, and I was wondering if there was a driver CD, I could order.
  I found the drivers (62 so far) for my machine on the Toshiba site and I was as well, I was wondering if I should download and install all. What about programs like the CD/DVD burner?
  Where can I get them back?

  Thank you.

  Christophe

  Hello

  The Tools & Utilities CD but that contains all the necessary drivers is not delivered with the unit, can be created by the user himself. If the unit is installed with recovery media you can find under Toshiba assist > protect & difficulty > create CD drivers & tools.

  All these drivers, tools & utilities that you can use for your own installation. Otherwise you need to download them from Toshiba download page, and please check the instructions facilities document and install all things in order. Order of the facilities is very important.

  Good luck!

• question about the user interface for toolbar in 5.0.0

  We use the BlackBerry JDE 5.0.0 to develop an app for the storm.  There are a bunch of net.rim.api.device.ui.toolbar, but is not part of the documentation of the api.  Anyone know if it is officially available for development?  We noticed a problem with that because some methods require a StringProvider class that doesn't seem to be available.

  Thank you.

  It was not officially released. I wish it was but the biggest way they prevent you from using it is to ask you to use the StringProvider class. I messed around with it for awhile, but as it is not official functionality may vary.

• General question about the updates and version number

  I have a general question about versions and update.  I'm new on this and am in the deep end of learning I want.

  In vSphere web client, I see the following versions (these are exactly as the seller, he left a few months that I have screenshots in my documentation that match)

  Version - VMware ESXi, 5.1.0 1612806

  Profile - Dell (updated) ESXi - 5.1 - 799733 (A00)

  I am trying to familiarize themselves with the Update Manager and I noticed that there are a lot of patches and updates available.

  Lists of Update Manager 5 patches as "Missing" with Red x but directly above them are a list of patches with green tick indicating that "installed" - it is perhaps obvious, but im guessing 'installed' means really installed when displayed on the screen - there is an update installed, labeled "ESXI 5.1 all the update 2-' would be able to tell that it has been installed by the details of profile/version above?

  I don't think it's a big deal at this stage, but if I install all missing patches and then the details of the version/profile change in summary screen?

  I hope this makes sense.

  Thank you

• Question about the Oracle database resource management

  Good evening
  I have a question about Oracle database Resource Management (DRM) for Oracle Database 10 g. I had an incident which, in a development/UAT environment (different instances, same box, don't ask), a developer wrote a wrong SQL statement that consumed 99% of the CPU. Currently, there is no limit of resources on two cases of db, and the developers don't want limits. However, my manager wants a method to prevent something like this does not happen. If I use the Oracle database resources management, create a consumer group (called "DevEnv") at 40% CPU usage, what will happen if a user of DevEnv runs a bad SQL statement that normally consumes 90% CPU again? Anyone would take a different approach? Thank you.
  
  Sincerely,
  Sho Fukamachi

  Yes, because the available processor would be 40%, they use more, while.
