• Cannot access the virtual center with web access

  Hello

  I can access my ESX hosts without problem using web access but I can't access the virtual Center.

  I put https://hostnamevCenter

  I go as far as the home page and once I click on web access connection I get the following error:

  '503 service unavailable '.

  Any suggestions? Is web access configured automatically for vCenter or what I need to do something more?

  Thanks in advance

• How to restrict access to the drive of Wndows xp sp3?

  I have 3 user account on my computer, it is has the administrator rights and the other is a standard user account.

  I want to restrict access to all readers for the standard player.
  I used gpedit.msc to enable the administrative model, but it also limits the account admin and me to access the road
  OS: windows XP SP3
  Please advice
  Hi Utkarsh.Ranjan,
   
  If you want to restrict access to a drive by using the Group Policy Editor, you can not apply for a particular user account. This will change for the user accounts.
   
  You can't restrict access to the complete transmission. However, you can resrtict access to folders and files inside a car to a particular user.
   
  Refer to the section "set, view, change, or remove special permissions for files and folders" in the following article and follow the steps to remove the authorization of the user access to the file/folder.

• Where Win7 stores the Windows Virtual PC > XP Mode > XPMUser "My Documents" to access if the virtual XP becomes inaccessible?

  Lost all files in XP mode is "My Docs" XPMUser because I can't connect? Same situation. Where Win7 stores the Windows Virtual PC > XP Mode > XPMUser "My Documents" to access if the virtual XP instance become inaccessible? Like many here, I have activated integration and where then asked for a password on the next reboot of the XP Mode. The password that I usually use has not been accepted. I tried all the possible solutions (have "integration" disabled, start with virtual XP safe mode), but not able to change my password XPmode so don't chance NO connection.  I have brand new instance of XP Mode works, but obviously does not have access to the CASE of XP Mode instance. My question is simple: where are the files that I created and saved in the default location of the first modes XP XPMUser "My Documents" in Windows 7? I tried Win7 for XP 'My documents' files by names or names of game but no luck.  Help, please.

  It is located in the file XP Mode VHD (Virtual Hard Drive), you can look as pretty as a ZIP file that contains a structure of entire disk rather than just a few files.  This VHD file is usually stored in your user folder in a folder of Virtual Machines, for example mine was in the C:\Users\SKeene\Virtual Machines.

  And it's my cheesy guilty pleasure wishes to inform you that you can browse this file as if it were a hard drive, without having to start the XP mode.  However, security applies: If your 'My documents' has been limited, it might be difficult to access (even if you pouvez be able to take possession of the file and gain access).
  Here's how:
  1. Open the Start Menu, right-click on computer and select manage. In the maintenance window of the computer that opens, choose "disk management".
  2. On the right side, click "More action" and then click "Attach VHD" and select your XP Mode VHD file.  You might consider making a backup of the file copy of the hard drive virtual before do you it, just in case!
  3. Once you have connected the virtual hard drive, an Autorun dialog box may appear.  If this is not the case, simply click on Start/computer to see your new 'Local disk '.

  At least, I can confirm that it worked perfectly for me, and I had access to my account "User XPMode" alongwith without problem.

• How to restrict access to the service web application deployed on weblogic for user group only

  I built the web service application in jdevelopler 11.1.1.7. Their security policy applied in the web service of the default Oracle policy which is (policy: Wssp1.2 - 2007-Https-UsernameToken - Plain.xml)

  Now all want to access the web service application must provide the name of user and password in the header section of the SOAP request to meet the requirement of the policy.

  the following steps I'm trying to restrict access to the application of web service with a specific group of users among users of weblogic:

  Connect to the weblogic administration console

  Create user or group of users

  Select your web service

  Click the Security tab

  Click the sub-tab political

  Choose your authorization provider in the menu drop-down (looks like by default)

  Choose Add Conditions-> Group-> Type in the name of the Group

  Finishing

  But access is always available for all weblogic users (IE users not in the group specified in the above security configuration). How can I restrict access to only authorized group? Any thing lacking in my approach?

  There is nothing wrong with the steps mentioned in the question. In addition, you must do the following

• Restrict access from the view of external endpoint

  Hello world

  I got an interesting question to come today: is it possible to restrict access to the view of physical endpoint?  This client does not support BYOD somehow and provided instead of thin laptops HP for their users access to the view since then at home, via a security gateway.  I know that you can disable the web interface from view completely, but they seek to block connections to nothing but these thin laptops.  Thank you!

• How to record a custom message / event in the virtual center of the virtual machine

  Is it possible to record a personalized message in the virtual center of the VM?

• Migrate the Virtual Center databases

  I'll be moving on my DB Manager Update VM DB, composer DB VM and VM DB license to a new SQL 2005 server, virtual Center. Is it OK just to stop the services on the Virtual Center and DB SQL Server and then migrate the DBs to the new server? And then then recreate ODBC connections?

  Yes, I stopped services.  Also, see this KB, http://kb.vmware.com/kb/7960893 , it may be useful

• Migration of the Virtual Center of SQL2005 database to a new server running SQL2008

  Virtual Center 2.5 Build 147633

  ESX hosts 3.5.0 143128

  Separate server database running SQL 2005

  We replace our SQL2005 server with a server SQL2008. We will migrate the database of VC on him. What are the steps on the side of Virtual Center. My plan is to:

  1. Backup the database

  2. Stopping VMWare services

  3. Migrate the database to SQL2008

  4. Change the Virtual Center ODBC connector to point to the new database server

  5. Restart the VMWare services.

  Is there anything, I'm missing or should be cautious?

  just note that, as of today, SQL 2008, is not a database supported for vCenter

• The upgrade of the Virtual Center 2 update 4 update?

  I am currently running ESXi on IBm blades and they are running version 3i, 3.5.0 Update 2

  We have Virtual Center 3.5 Update 2 installed as well.

  We seek to improve our 3i to 4 upgrade ESX and Virtual Center.  I was looking through the upgrade guide, but there wasn't this listed scenario.

  My plan was to:

  Take c and inplace upgrade of the Virtual Center Update 2 to 4 update server

  VMotion invited out of one of our blades, then update the blade and bring guests.

  Am I missing something?  Are there documents more precise that lists how should I do this?

  seems good... Just get a full backup of your DB vCenter before starting.

  The Upgrade Guide can be helpful as well.

  Also, VMware tools for your guest will require an upgrade as well.

• Installation of SQL Server for the virtual Center Server

  Hi all

  We bought 16 x 2 for ESX server CPU licenses.  So, I will prepare a database of virtual server of the Management Center 16 guests. As SQL Server 2005 Express is installed during installation of Virtual Center Server but VMware is recommended for use only for 5 guests.

  So I would like to prepare a database of SQL for VC server, please help me how to make the database to the virtual Center Server. Are there special tables, configuration, permissions. I have no experience with databases then how should I go with it. Is there a guide for it. The ESX Server installation guide explains only create ODBC connections.

  Please help me with this I would be very obliged.

  I know that the procedure is restrited 2 steps (1 and 2) on page 68, but you need to install and configure SQL Server for your business standard (I guess asking the C: or D: and data/newspapers on E :). I'm not going to explain better how to install SQL Server on a server. For the SQL Server database:

  • Step 1: you create a database storing the files on the right disk (with at least 30 GB) with a default database size to the size defined by the "Calculator" (value of + 15% on the line of your choice statistical level).

  • Step 2: On your Microsoft SQL Server, create a user of SQL Server database with the database rights of operator (DBO). The default database for the DBO User is that you defined in step 1. Make sure the database user has a role of sysadmin server or the role of database db_ownerfixed on the VirtualCenter database and the MSDB database. The role db_owner on the MSDB database is required for the installation and upgradeonly. This role can be removed after installation or upgrade process iscompleted.

  The user must be created for your standard business as service account (password never expires) with a long and complex password.

  Other steps in the document are for the ODBC connection.

  Creating the tables is made during the installation of VC. Nothing to do. A characteristic is not to stop the SQL Server agent because some tasks are scheduled in the database to 'compact' statistics.

  For the record, the database is upgraded when installing patches VC creating of new tables, updating of data type or...

• After you import the metadata from an another env, no access to the Control Center Manager

  Hello
  I work with bise1, in this setup there are main ETL OWB features only;
  I imported metadata via design-> import metadata; These metadata were exported in a different environment;
  Once imported, all seem fine, I can make changes, the center of access control manager
  then I save and exit design center; When I connect back, I have more access to the Control Center Manager, the command is dimmed.
  I re-imported 5 times already, so I only got access to the Control Center Manager, why what is happening?
  anyone ever had something similar, or perhaps you could have the indication on what is the problem?
  Thanks in advance for any advice
  Rgds

  Hello

  may be trivial, but you opened the project in the Project Explorer tree. Before that, you cannot open the Control Center Manager because it is related to a project.

  Kind regards
