Recommendations for his new laptop of VMware Workstation 7 run machines virtual esx

I'm about to buy a new laptop and I'm looking for something that is reasonably priced and that will be able to help me study for the new vcp tests by installing esx4 inside the workstation.

If you know any good portable that won't break the Bank that will work for sure for this, I would really appreciate your advice.

Thanks for your help.

I have the p9600 (2.66 GHz with 6 MB of cache) in mine.  You can just call and order and ask anything you want.  Sometimes (as in my case) they will have processors that are not yet listed yet.  I think the max is just at 3 GHz.  I usually run 3 VMs at a time, or I'll run my team (4 virtual machines) and another 1 or 2 with them.  I used for my RHCT practice stuff and it will use for my VCP and MCITP Enterprise Administrator practice as well.  I had with Vista x 64, but put Windows 7 Ultimate x 64 on it when he came in (MSDN).

  • (Beginner) of the initial steps for the new installation of vmware workstation & guest os

    Hi, very new for the virtual machine. I need help on what type of software (vmware), need and the first steps of the installation.

    Current configuration: a portable 3 separate HD, 1 computer = Windows 7, 2 = XP, 3 is Linux RH. I have manually swap HD to work on each operating system.

    Req: A laptop with Windows 7 as main OS and two other OS (XP and Linux) Guest.

    (1) I prefer not to install OS and the entire application again for the guest operating system (XP and linux), will like to convert, copy, etc.

    (2) can I install multiple OS (XP) for testing of applications and then delete them?

    (3) can I use a different version of an application in a guest operating system?

    The software that I need to buy:

    VMware workstation 7.1

    Version of the converted VMware?  (this may be free, I think)

    ThinApp 4. ???

    If these are vmware software that I need is a step by step installation, in particular of the convert.

    Thank you, ralph

    Hi Raoul,.

    Welcome to the forums.

    VMware vCenter Converter Standalone is a free download that is accessible to everyone, so you can use it to convert your existing machines.

    For testing purposes, you can create a virtual machine "or" with all standard applications, and then use the function 'linked-clone"of the workstation. In this way, you can have several machines quickly with the same basic configuration to test different applications.

    It is more complicated to have multiple versions of the same application in a single virtual machine. ThinApp seems to be the solution, but it should require the application packages (I have no experience with ThinApp) construction. It's a bit complicated just to test. Way the easiest would be to create a new virtual machine for each version of the application.

    Workstation and the converter are very easy to install if you use a standard configuration.

    Good luck.

    I install WIN 2003 x 64 as a virtual server on ESX 4, when I select LSI logic SAS & LSI logic parallel it does not detect the hard drive, do I need driver if so where can I download?

    Please help on this issue.

    If you really want to use it for installation, you will need to extract the driver from the VMware Tools ISO and add it to a disk image.

  • Suggestions for a new laptop - perhaps Satellite Pro L550-17U

    Didn't know where to ask it is here in the General category.

    I'm looking for a laptop replacement with some specificity. I can get most of them, but the last of them is difficult. If the requirements are:

    17 "screen with a horizontal resolution at least 1600.
    Minimum of 4 GB of RAM (8 would be nice)
    Running Windows 7 64-bit
    Bluetooth

    and finally, the duck:

    Supports Intel VT (Virtualization Technology)

    I thought that the Satellite Pro L550-17U would be OK, but looking at the Intel site, it does not seem that T6570 processor supports VT and it must be supported in the BIOS even when, and nothing in the spec says that it will be.

    Any person able to provide any help please? I would stay with Toshiba, as I had this high reliability of them, but would consider other fact (sorry Toshiba) if it is the only option.

    Roger

    Hello Roger

    In my opinion the most important question is: how much you are willing to pay for the new laptop?
    Satellite L is OK, but don't forget that the L-series is, in general, not the best model of Satellite.

    Hello Hello. If I have Adobe audition, can I install first program in my laptop, and then in another (if I decide to change my cell phone for a newer laptop)?

    You can install hearings on as much as you can, there are not limited to the facilities. However if you had bought the individual subscription, you can log in and activate the app as a full version on 2 devices only.

    If you buy a new device and want to activate on the same, all you have to do is simply disconnected from Adobe Creative Cloud application of either of the 2 previous devices, so that you can maintain the number of activations that 2.

    You can switch activation between devices, no problem.

    The reason is to avoid any inconvenience. What do I need to uninstall Photoshop beforehand?

    Thanks for the tips

    The mobile fact have separate start-up and data readers?  If so and the boot drive has limited space, you may want to consider relocation of things like bridges on the data disk cache.  I can't think another thing to consider from the start, however.

  • Is it possible to transfer everything to a virtual hard disk that is smaller on a virtual hard disk that is larger in VMWare Workstation, using the same virtual machine?

    Hello

    I was wondering if it is possible to transfer everything to a virtual hard disk that is smaller on a virtual hard disk that is larger in VMWare Workstation, using the same virtual machine? In the affirmative, please could someone advise me on how to do it. Also utility management and disk transfer can be used in virtual machines to do this?

    Thank you very much

    Tim Auluck

    I'm not sure what exactly you are asking. Can you please clarify!

    Basically you can resize a virtual drive or add a second virtual disk to a virtual machine and transfer/copy files. You can also resize the virtual disk using VMware Converter for example.

    I read up on the subject and found that I have to re size a partition. Anyone know what it could be? I can't find anything that looks like it has something to do with VMware. Does anyone know what size and what file system is it?

  • I need to create a recovery for my new laptop file if there is a resumption of HP

    I just bought an HP Pavilion Notebook PC 15 15 - n219 his

    Series: [redacted for privacy]

    Product #: F9U67EA #ABU

    There is a recovery partition.

    I'm a little confused on the question of the creation of recovery files. I found the instructions on youtube on the creation of an image of the laptop, but I wonder why I need to do as it is a HP Recovery Manager.

    Although I don't really know what did the Manager.

    Can someone tell me what the best strategy is about recovery for this laptop files taking into account the partition.

    After I did it, I want to remove macfee and install the Norton I bought it. I have to disable the macafee? If yes how can I do this?

    Can I remove the macefee to save space on the hard drive?

    If you can help with these questions that would be much appreciate.

    I gues, I want to just do the right thing with this new laptop and I can restore to avoid removing too much so that the savinbg space and have a protected machine.

    Thank you

    Hello

    You should definetely create a set of recovery media - this is your copy of the operating system.  An example of when you might need, it would be if you had to replace the hard drive - details on the creation of this can be found on the next document in HP.

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03481733

    About McAfee, you must uninstall that first before trying to install Norton - you can do this in the usual way by opening the Control Panel, open programs and features, right click at the entrance of McAfee and select uninstall.  When the process is complete, restart the computer before installing Norton.

    Kind regards

  • How can I export my connections Active and my list of extensions for my new laptop ((I use Firefox 3.6.4 and Win 7 on both))

    I want to just export my list of big "login" as the cause of firefox remembers and automatically type it again I've forgotten many of them! so if I can move this list to my laptop, it would be easier and more to connect on each site and each ant I have joined and join again and lose my Member or I have to request a new password for each site, then go to my email and connect, then change the password to the old It is very bad to do all of my connections!

    and also I can't move my extensions installed with currently option for firefox in my laptop with the same version of firefox "3.6.4" or I need to install again in the laptop?

    Note: both my computer and the new laptop running on Windows 7 Professional OEM and have the same version of firefox
