• How can I activate my Webcam USB between my physical machine and VM

  I am new and with a stupid newbie question. VMware Workstation 11 is able to detect and use my Webcam on my virtual machine of Ubuntu 14.4, also a long time I disconnects the USB camera after that starts the virtual machine and reconnect again to VMware he catches before my (windows 8.1) physical machine fact.

  Is there anyway I could turn off the camera on windows manually to my vm it catches and turn it back to the when I'm done with the virtual machine. I don't have to work on the PC and reconnect everything all the time. Hope it makes sense. Thank you!

  You can use the menu Workstation VM-> removable devices - to connect to the virtual machine or to connect to the host. If you connect the device to the virtual computer, it is disconnected from the host. After completing your work with the virtual machine, you can disconnect from comments and connect it to the host.

• Connect physical hard disks to the virtual machine (and leave the data intact)

  Hello

  I'm looking to virtualize a SOHO headless server, that I use mainly for secure file storage.

  Currently, the system runs Linux installed on a small disc and has two drives 1.5 TB, used exclusively for data, in a cluster of ZFS mirroring. (I use the ZFS-fuse Linux-based application).

  I want virtualization for two reasons. One is to make administration easier and safer - avoid having to connect a keyboard and the physical monitor to the box from time to time. The other is that the machine is a bit more powerful to handle the load, and I'm hoping to make it work on other, more challenging tasks.

  Now, there is a catch. These discs are as highly important. I mean the data on them. What I need is to convert the current Linux system to a virtual machine, or re - install Linux on a virtual machine (don't like that), then connect the physical disks to the virtual machine as if they were actually connected.

  I certainly don't want to vmware touches those disks somehow.

  I've read the documentation, but I'm a noob when it comes to server virtualization and system engineering and don't quite understand if this is possible or not. These discs are not a SAN, they are physically connected to the server, I want to install vSphere on. (Of course, I'll log out when I run the setup of vSphere. But I need plug them again later, and they need to be sure that vmware will leave them alone and pass them to the virtual machine transparent.)

  Oh yes, the cluster mirrored ZFS. It is essentially a software RAID type thingie.

  http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/ZFS

  A material, or the point of view of virtualization, it appears two hard drives with a single huge partition on each that is not transparent to anyone, except the implementation of ZFS.

  OK, means that you can break the RAID, connect the drives to different host and configure RAID once again, right?

  Let's do it this way

  1. We will need a disc player more for VM, cause on flash, we install ESXi
  2. I will share ZFS :-), all you need to do with that before you install ESXi
  3. make the BACKUP!
  4. Disconnect the data host drives
  5. install ESXi 4.1 U1 free version on flash
  6. Download the site VMware vSphere client
  7. Connect the VM disk to ESXi
  8. customer help create the virtual machine and install the OS on it
  9. stop the virtual machine and esxi
  10. connect DATA drives to the ESXi host
  11. begin to ESXi
  12. See how to add RDM on youtube, after client use, change first hardware VM--> add a new hard disk--> choose Raw Device Mapping--> (physical or virtual) mode--> store it with folder VM - FACT
  13. Start the virtual machine, now your VM should see both drives, with good data course :-)

  I have just made this procedure (add ROW with data in Linux VM) on ubuntu VM, works well

  See you soon

• How to distinguish the physical interface and logic (subinterface) interface to the Cisco router/Switch?

  Hi Expert,

  How to distinguish the physical interface and logic (subinterface) interface to the Cisco router/Switch? Can you please clarify a formal way for this so have?

  A physical interface is numbered with the same name of the interface when printing on the physical port. For example "GigabitEthernet 0/1" corresponds to port 1 of the 0 module (or the base unit).

  A logical interface can be a subinterface on a routed port and will have a point ("". "") preceding the number sous-interface (ex. GigabitEthernet 0/1.1). It can also be a loop or a virtual interface (on a router this could also include interfaces like the tunnel and virtual tunnel or VTI types). A switch may also have a VLAN logical interfaces (e.g. interface vlan 1) which are used as layer 3 virtual interfaces of type.

• Windows 7 computer physical exported to the virtual machine and now will not boot on another machine

  Hello

  What I tried to do is the following:

  Export/create a virtual machine from the current physical running computer. After it's done, I plug in the USB key which contains the files of virtual computer for a laptop and try to start this virtual machine. It does not start due to "recent changes". This probably means that the OS never will start, right?

  This seems odd to me, or I can't understand what is happening here. I thought that to have a virtual machine means that the operating system could not doing the physical machine, it is running on, but just saw it is virtualized OS/machine.

  I would like to "clone" a current physical machine and then run it on another PC is because we need to have a client machine, convert applications on it and then return either the image (if they already had a running image) or we have a complete script on how to convert/upgrade for that client applications so that the downtime will be minimal and maximum success rate.

  Info:

  VMWare Workstation 7.1.2

  Windows 7 (desktop and laptop PC run this) 32-bit

  Some clients running ESX and we want to take a picture of that and do the same trick as for workstation

  A thinking about it?

  See you soon,.

  I bought a copy of Virtualization Manager 2010 at the time where converter couldn't handle windows 7.

  Nowadays the 4.3 version should work well.

  As mentioned previously, the mebdedded in my computer is very outdated.

  On my site, you will find a howto for p2v 2008 r2 - this works for Windows 7 too - and it uses only free tools

• Cannot start the physical machine converted to a virtual machine under ESXi 4.0

  Hi all

  I have 2 has with the material below

  Dell optiplex 755 2.4 Qcore 4 GB of RAM and 160 GB of HARD drive

  A performer with ESXi 4.0 other runs with Windows 2003.

  I tried to convert physical machine with "Vmware Vcenter converter Stand alone" 4.0.1 build 161434

  I used the tool on the source machine and by another machine on the network.

  The two process converts the physical machine to a virtual machine successfully without any errors.

  After conversion, the virtual machine cannot start, and shows only a small slider that is not flashing too.

  

  The physical machine have a single partition of 160 GB

  The space currently used on the physical machine is 26 GB.

  I reduced the size of the HARD drive to virtual computer with fix / light available in 40 GB.

  point to make here is that the ESX have only 160 GB HDD, so he will not be able to copy all 160 GB because of which I am reducing the 40 GB HARD drive

  I converted a few other physical machines with 40 GB HARD drive and they work well after the conversion.

  Any sugessions would be greatly appreciated.

  Thanks in advance

  Hi Sunil,

  Let me know the drive selected in the custom option controller.

  Thank you

• Best practices for p2v - when to stop the physical machine?

  After you perform a p2v conversion, when should I stop the physical machine? By default, the virtual machine is turned off after the conversion and characterized by a DHCP address and not the static address that was on the physical machine... Why is this? Not the virtual machine is a duplicate... maybe it's a setting I'm missing the conversion.

  Looking for a better practice for the p2v conversion process.

  Using Virtual Center 2.5 and the converter built-in.

  Thank you, Rick

  Hello and welcome to the forums.

  I tend to do the conversion and to choose to not to turn on the virtual machine later.  Once the conversion is completed, I make changes on the hardware as needed and then make sure that "Connect at Power On" is not checked in the device status of the NICs.  Now you can power up to the virtual machine and do what you need to do to prepare (uninstall the old software, change HALs, etc.) without fear of being on the network with the same name or IP address.  Once everything is good in Event Viewer, Device Manager, etc. - I shut down the physical server and then turn on the virtual machine with a "wired" network adapter to test.

  Another option would be to use the "Customize the identity of the virtual machine" option towards the end of the wizard import, if you need to be able to have the physical server and the virtual machine on the network at the same time.  This customization will give you virtual machine, a new name server and SID, and then you could just set it to a different IP address.

  Good luck!

• How the physical machine can communicate with the virtual machines as well as the internet should work on a virtual machine

  Hi team,

  I ask that you forgive for asking a silly question without doing a free search.

  I'm using VMware workstation 6.5. I am able to communicate with both machines by selecting 'only option of home. "

  Is there a way by which the physical machine can communicate with the virtual machines.

  At the same time through the VMS, is it possible to access the Internet from the physical amchine.

  Help, please.

  When you use a bridged vNIC the customer acts as any other host, so that you can access is by his IP (or name if a DNS configuration exists as you acceding to any other host.) What tools you can use depends on the guest operating system and the software available.

  I assume you mean access deskopt. Then you can use RDP (Windows Terminal services) or VNC (tight/tiny).

  For Linux, you can use this last or all the flavors of SSH. In the case of Linux, I use VNC through SSH tunnel. You can also tunnel X through SSH, so if you have an X server on another host (such as the Hummingbird for Windows), you can open your own office remotely there.

• I get an error "the disk hard virtual parent is in a saved state. Discard the saved state or stop the virtual machine and try again. "during the installation of XP mode.

  I have Win7 Pro SP1 x 64.  I downloaded WindowsXPMode_en - us.exe (from Microsoft downloads) and run it.  The installation seems to work OK (I've specified a different location for the parent virtual hard disk file).  Then, installation happening and I provide the information requested (name of user and password for the XP Mode), updates Windows and OK to the issue of sharing.  The installation program then reports the following error:

  The disk hard virtual parent is in a saved state.  Discard the saved state or stop the virtual machine and try again.

  I get the error even if I try manually configure XP Mode (use the Setup Wizard).  I downloaded the installer XPMode (3 times) and reinstalled several times, always with the same result.  If it helps, I can't locate anywhere .vsv file.

  Any idea what's going on?

• Get the IP of the virtual machine and MAC

  Hello

  I'm trying to get the IP of the virtual machine and the MAC one of my data centers.

  When I run that the following script two things happen:

  1. I don't see a vm in the output of the csv file.

  2. when I send the output to the quick PowrCLI I see only a mac and one IP address for virtual machines with network cards.

  Script

  ---------

  $MV = Get-Data Center $DC | Get-vmhost | Get - VM

  {foreach ($VM to $VMs)

  $VMx = get-view $VM.ID

  $HW = $VMx.guest.net

  foreach ($dev to $HW)

  {

  foreach ($ip in $dev.ipaddress)

  {

  $dev | Select

  @{Name = 'Name'; {Expression = {$vm.name}}.

  @{Name = 'IP address'; Expression is {$ip}},

  @{Name = 'MAC'; {Expression = {$dev.macaddress}} |

  Export-CSV VM - IP - Info.csv - NoTypeInfo

  }

  }

  }

  My console output, tested on a virtual machine with two external network cards and an internal interface "dummy".

• Use OEM Windows 7 Pro in virtual computer; Enterprise of Windows 8.1 in the physical Machine

  Hello

  I need some real tips on Windows license manager that I don't want to go against all Microsoft software license.

  As a backdrop, I have the following:

  -an OEM Windows 7 Pro that came with the purchase of a Dell PC

  -a license in Volume Windows 8 with Software Assurance purchased by my company

  I would like to know if I can install the copy of the OEM Windows 7 Pro in a virtual machine on the Dell PC, while having a Windows Installer on the physical PC/computer Dell 8.1. i.e. physical Machine Dell PC = Windows Enterprise 8.1; Virtual machine in the same Dell PC is Windows 7 Pro OEM.

  I don't want to do a dual boot to install because it will be difficult to remove once my 3rd party applications fully supports Windows 8.1; and I also want to keep my PC as clean as possible. I also can't use one of the Open License of Windows 8 as a lower upgrade to Windows 7 as this installation will take another license to use.

  I read from the windows 7 EULA that:

  'Use with Virtualization Technologies. Rather than use the software directly on the licensed computer, you can install and use the software within the virtual (or emulated) only on the licensed computer system... »

  I was wondering that the clause applies, but I don't know if the OEM Windows 7 Pro can be activated on a virtual machine because I don't have the OEM product key.

  Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

  It's the same clause I was going to paste attesting that you can install the license OEM Windows 7 in a VM.

  
  

  In addition, since you have Windows Enterprise 8.1, you can use the built in Hyper-v:

  Windows 8 integrates into hypervisor called Hyper-V.

  This requires that your processor supports the translation of the secondary addresses.

  To see if your processor is supported:

  Press the Windows key + X

  Click on programs and features

  Click on turn Windows features on or off

  See if you can check off Hyper-V and all its options of void

  If this isn't the case, it does not support Hyper-v.

  You can use alternatives such as Oracle VirtualBox or VMWare Player.

• Cannot start Windows 7 after the conversion of the physical machine

  Hello

  I converted my windows 7 64 bit running physical machine to the virtual machine using converter 5.0. I am running VMWare Workstation 8.0. My physical machine hid the 100 MB boot partition and 90 GB main partition. During the conversion, I don't have an option to select a hidden partition, nor did I want in my virtual machine. Conversion failed with the following message (planned):

  Unable to find the system volume, reconfiguration is not possible.

  Then, I started the virtual machine using the Windows DVD and selected the option "repair". Once I arrived, I used diskpart to make my active primary partition and then followed the steps in this KB http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1037507 to fix everything including BCD. Once this was done, I used converted to reconfigure the virtual computer, and this time he succeeded. Everything was good and as expected up to that point. Now, when I start the VM, I get by BIOS init and then I get a black screen - no messages at all and he vm it is here without doing anything. I tried to fix it again and everything seems good (checked all the information using diskpart, bootrec and bcdedit so that automated repair) - everything seems to be in order, but the black screen is all I see when I try to start.

  Any help to guide me to this point is very popular figure.

  Thank you
