Server 2012R2 Lenovo ROK fails to intsaller to vmware

I'll put up the new RD630 with 2012RD (lenovo ROK) on Vmware server

If fails to install as recognized Lenovo hardware... support sent a link to change the data store. I'm relatively new to Vmware, does anyonehave step by step instructions to change the configuration?

Here's what they sent:

https://support.Lenovo.com/us/en/products/servers/ThinkServer-rack-servers/ThinkServer-RD630/solutio...

It's getting into vmware, choose the virtual machine and change the configuration settings, add a line, and enter SMBIOS.reflecthost = "TRUE". It was my steps:

  1. Launch the hypervisor
  2. Click on Virtual Machine
  3. Click on change Virtual Machine properties
  4. Click Options, click general
  5. Click on Configuration settings
  6. Click Add a line
  7. Enter SMBIOS.reflect.host the right pane in the left pane and TRUE
  8. Click OK

You will now be able to install the version of Lenovo ROK of the server 2012R2

  • Cannot install the update on server 2012R2 Manager - fails with Visual Studio 2005 error.

    I searched google, tried everything I can find online and you simply cannot install Update Manager on the server 2012R2.

    Yes, .NET 3.5 and 4.5 are installed. Am I missing something here?

    Extract you the vCenter all server, or that the file Update Manager installation image? If you check out the picture of the installation, please do and launch the installation of the update from the appropriate subdirectory Manager.

    But I still have 16 seconds to load the snap against 1 second on my workstation (which has much less computer resources!)

    Any help is appreciated.

    Hi LucD,

    I've found a workaround:

    When I run the import-PSSnapin I noticed (with wireshark) a lot of traffic failed to WAN addresses, so I set myself, in Internet Options a false proxy (127.0.0.1), excluding the proxy DNS of my domain active directory name (so I can connect to the virtual center without going through the wrong proxy)

    Now is the time of execution:

    For all of you who read this, I was able to solve the problem.

    Through all the blogs I read, I did sort of a stupid Setup 4.5.2 on server 2012R2 error.  DON'T, DON'T.

    To uninstall the 4.5.2 version of server 2012R2 if you install like I did, go to programs and features, switch view installed updates and remove the update for Windows KB2934520

    After doing this, I was able to smooth sailing through the installation.  I realized that halfway through my troubleshooting, but considering the compatibility of .net usually I don't think it would be a huge problem and I though that surely there would be a vmware KB on such a stupid mistake but apparently not.

    Under Windows, you can connect a printer to a computer via USB and be able to print. However, since there is no software for it on the HP site it's all what you can. Unfortunately, you will only be able to print using the USB method.

    I think we confuse you.  ESX server is running like a machine virtual within the workstation, correct?  If Yes, then you must edit the vmx esx server with these entries monitor configuration file *.  They can go anywhere in the file.  Once those have been added, you should be able to run 32-bit virtual machines within the esx server.
