Run a machine virtual 64-bit on ESX4i with an Intel Core2Quad Q9450

I try to install Windows Server 2008 R2 which only runs on 64-bit processor.

I managed to install on a Core i7 CPU but even if I updated the OS setting in

Windows Server 2008 R2 64-bit, the installion CD tell me that I can't install it

on a 32-bit CPU...

The Q9450 is not compatible with 64-bit virtualization?

I won't be able to install 2 WS2008 R2 DCs on 2 different ESX4i host.

I restarted the ESX4i host and the BIOS has active VT - d.  All the other options are enabled.

VT - d is not relevant.  However, if all other options are enabled, this could be your problem.  Note that "the execution of confidence" must be disabled.

Maybe I have to start with the ISO talking about VMware Knowledge Base article.

After that, I could use the special parameter in ESX4i workaround with some CPUS where

some core are not active VT...

ESXi does not workaround for a buggy BIOS.  The privileged setting, that you reference is available in hosted only products.

  • problem of machine virtual 64-bit

    Hello

    In my company, we have 3 HP Elitebook 8560w with Windows 7 Enterprise installed.

    We installed Vmware workstation and you have installed Ubuntu 32-bit and 64-bit virtual machines.

    The 64-bit virtual machine however gives a problem.

    Sometimes it will start, sometimes not. I downloaded the havdetectiontool.exe from the microsoft site. After a system restart the diagnosis of the tool is the first image below.

    Now you will probably tell me that I need to enable something in the bios, but what happens if I force the HP to sleep and then wake up again. After you run the tool now, look at what he says (2nd image). The virtual machine will now start very well.

    The version of the BIOS on this computer is HP 68SVD worm F.22, 05.01.2012.

    Question is: is this a bios issue or what?

    I solved it. Somehow the sleep of the PC feature sometimes allows virtualization, wrong leads us to believe that nothing was to be done in the BIOS.

    The "Virtualization Technology" checkbox is turned off in the BIOS on HP computers apparently by default. Somehow the 32-bit Virtual Machines are not affected by this piece, but 64-bit VMS are :-)

  • Machine virtual 32-bit on 64-bit host

    Not a limitation of vmware as such in this case, rather a cross-microsoft architecture upgrades are not supported

  • Can I run a machine virtual de VMware Fusion, VMware Server 2?

    I looked at a bunch of documentation confusing but couldn't find a clear overview of what VMware Server 2 does in fact.

    I hope that I can take the virtual machines that I've created with VMware Fusion and download them on VMware Server 2 on a server somewhere and run it from there.

    Is this possible?   Is there any clear, simple documentation that indicates how to proceed?

    Thanks for any information you can give me!

    Hello

    If you run the virtual machine in fusion directly in vmware server, these are the steps to follow:

    (1) find out where are the fusion virtual machine files.

    (2) stop & remove merge (do not remove fisically hd!) virtual machine.

    (3) copy files of the virtual machine of fusion to the vmware server host (with the .vmx file and the hard should be enough) in the directory you designate as data store for vm vmware server files in the installation of vmware server.

    (4) use the "adding a virtual machine to inventory" to navigate to the file .vmx of the virtual machine that you copied before

    (5) the machine running and try. (if a question arises, you say that you copied the VM).

    Maybe you should do some additional steps as reconfigure it the virtual machine under vmware virtual network install, but there are minor and easy changes.

    Here is some information about the files that make up a virtual computer: http://www.vmware.com/support/ws55/doc/ws_learning_files_in_a_vm.html

  • is it a good idea to run the JAVA virtual machine inside the hypervisor?

    If I want to write a global user inside the hypervisor platform and you want to reuse some java lib, it's a good idea to install and run the JAVA virtual machine as part of global programs of the user inside the hypervisor? Thank you.

    Maybe you listen to the wrong people?

    The ESXi hypervisor is pretty well stripped of the linux console you are talking about, there is a thin busybox linux like environment, but you are strongly advised not to run anything in there.

    Performer of applications within this console may have all kinds of side effects such as severely affect the performance of your computer virtual guests.

    Why the hell would you want to run the JAVA virtual machine inside the hypervisor? What is the reason why you want to do this? If it's because you get a better return, then you're wrong, the console becomes just a little bit of resources available on your host computer.

    If this is to go directly to the features that the hypervisor provides then the VMA we're talking is the answer.

    So getting back to your question initial for EACH use case that I can think it's a very bad idea.

  • The verification of license application that runs on a machine virtual vmware.

    Hello!

    I'm sorry for my bad English.

    There is an application with the license related to the material. A computer - a license.

    As a general rule, a check of the license is:

    app_protect.png

    1. the application scans materials.

    2. the application collects information about the material and preparing an application for license availability.

    3. the application sends a request to check the availability of the license.

    4. the license server receives the request and returns a response. The application receives a response from the license server and active features.

    However, if the program is on the virtual machine - collection of information about the hardware fails.

    app_protect_2.png

    I could not configuration information physical server as the default methods do not do.

    Call to the hypervisor allows to collect statistics, but it is not enough to generate demand for the presence of licenses.

    app_protect_3.png

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    There are therefore 2 questions:

    How within the virtual machine, you can get information about configuring physical server?

    How can I implement the license related to the equipment, check if the program is running on a virtual machine?


    Thank you!

    The guest operating system and hypervisor can communicate with each other through the VMware vSockets.

  • Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 & virtual 64-bit machines

    Hello

    I have a machine that has the processor Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 I know supports VT - X.

    I am running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit and have VMware PLayer installed. I have 64 bit VM, mainly linux (Suse and Fedora) that work perfectly on a Dell laptop with an i5 processor, however when I run them on the E6400 processor I get error which is about 64-Bit support and LongMode.

    I've verified that this processor VT - X support so am not sure why it does not work?

    I also checked with the tool of processor 64-bit and which confirms that the processor is capable of running 64-bit guests so not sure what is the problem.

    There is no parameters with the firmware that control VT - X, so I'm a bit stuck regarding this.

    Any ideas would be very appreciated.
    Thank you.
    Dave

    There is no parameters with the firmware that control the VT - X

    Often this parameter is bit "hidden" in the security settings of the BIOS. You can also check if a newer BIOS is available that allows this parameter, where you can't find it.

  • Database SQL vCenter that is running on the virtual machine within vsphere

    Hey guys, I was wondering how many of you are running your database remote vcenter on a virtual machine inside your vsphere environment? We always ran the vcenter db on a physical remote outside the vsphere group box, but I am considering the upgrade to sql 2008 R2 and I already have a virtual sql server computer running within vsphere.

    Pro/drawbacks to be aware of the db running on a virtual machine?

    Thanks in advance

    Kevin

    We rotated our SQL database in a VM for a while now.

    Some advantages are for example the wide use of HA and the ability to easily extend if necessary resources. In addition, if you use backup as Veeam software a restore takes only a few minutes from a physical configuration.

    There are a few things when you have to keep in mind:

    -Make sure that your SQL VM database begins before your vCenter (the service does not start if it cannot reach the database), even if it can be fixed manually it might be something you want to keep in mind

    -If you use the distributed switches power risk since data is stored in the database, of course there are solutions for this (keep the traffic on a standard switch management)

    -If you use HA make sure you modify the priority of restarting HA for the virtual machine (you don't want a reboot suddenly)

  • VCenter are running in a virtual machine: now, it is a good idea?

    This article:

    http://searchvirtualdatacentre.TechTarget.co.UK/news/column/0, 294698, sid203_gci1512874, 00.html?

    says it is recommended.  He will then raise a problem with the Update Manager.  I do not use the Update Manager, so I'm interested to know if anyone can confirm and tell me what document of VMware's vCenter recommended to run on the virtual machine as a 'best practice '.

    I'm more ready to go this way than before, but I'm always cautious when I consider the complexity of chess.

    If host ESX running vCenter server completely failed, then, Yes, vCenter will re-start on another host.

    But there are opportunities far more problems than that.  What happens if the data store becomes unavailable?  What happens if the ESX host is suspended from a problem that connects the CPU?

    Be extremely careful, I can not far because virutalizing vCenter means basically that it have more complexity in the layers beneath him and therefore more opportunities for the failure of the recovery are introduced.

    I know vCenter running on material means that layer may still fail, but we're watching all of our physical servers that run our ESX host.

    Put a hypervisor on them prevents us from having to deal with the problems of disk/network/fiber channel / local memory.

    the search for VMware, I found a doc who wrote in 2009, don't know if it's always the last Gospel.  I will raise a support call to ask VMware, but I wanted to first see if you can give me a link to the answer.

    http://communities.VMware.com/docs/doc-11197

    Interesting that this doc on the VMware site binds effectively to that on the techtarget site.  That's fine, but I want VMware reference that mentions the techtarget article.

    Congratulations in advance for your time and your help.

    Points of generous and enthusiastic congratulations to all those who could be the key here.

    see you soon,

    Kevin

    The design of vSphere course has this as the best exercise of the profession - the reasons have already been identified. From VMware, it's a virtual vCenter server has high levels of resilience and redundancy, you can not necessarily with a physical server or having to pay a significant premium to achieve, that is to say MS clustering.

    It also gives you the possibility of increasing resources - CPU and ram discs if you need to. With the help of a physical server you reaches the limits of physical capacity.

    If it works as aVM you use common sense - if you have one or two hosts then risks may outway the benefits, that is a failure of a single host leaves Infrastructure depend on the remaining host. If you have 10 hosts and a resilient storage solution then why not.

    There is quite a response to the host to vcenter environment - person has never shot to run on a physical server and can say the same for virtual.
