• The cluster Agent installation does not ask for password Agent

  Hi all
  I try to install configure the management agent on a few nodes of the RAC on Windows Server 2003 64-bit. I installed the agent on other hosts before, but not on clusters. Installation seems to be pretty simple, YES the other nodes automatically detects and installs on them. However, when I do the installation of cluster, I am never invited to the agent registration page register with the administration server. He's asking the host name of the server and port, but never the password. Then the agent installs and starts the service, he is never seen by the administration server.
  Has anyone encountered this before? Is it possible to save it now, or should I just try to reinstall manually?

  This is an expected on windows cluster behavior, registration of the agent will not be asked.
  Once the user installation must ensure the agent on each node manually by emctl sure agent \bin

• See 4.6, no Option of Agent composer Agent Installation...

  When we try to install the Agent from the view on our vm office to serve as the Parent virtual machine for our composer vm, the Agent of the composer is not an option on the installation.

  We are using VMware-viewagent-x86_64 - 4.6.0 - 366101.exe.  I also tried the Installer 4.5 VMware-viewagent-x86_64 - 4.5.0 - 293049.exe and I got the same result.  The only options are:

  See Agent

  USB redirection

  PCoIP Server

  PCoIP smart card

  I tried to install the Agent with all the features available, but the composer vm is created from this image has resulted in an error:

  Discovers the error of initialization of the agent (-65535) composer status: View Composer agent is not installed in the computer master virtual

  There is a sine qua non for the composer Agent that I'm missing?

  Any help is greatly appreciated.

  Please ensure that you have VMware installed on your agent machine tools.

  If Vmware tools is not present in the VM agent, install will not view composer and related components.

  To install VMware tools, right click on the VM-> comments-> installation/upgrade VMware Tools. Reboor the virtual machine and proceed with the installation of the Agent from the view.

• Converter Standalone Agent installation failed, error code: 1601

  Hi all

  I downloaded the VMware converter tryware version, to see if we can use this tool to create virtual machines from existing industrial PC.

  We intend to make a test remote backup to a XP to a laptop machine (to keep mobile in an industrial environment)

  I installed you VMware converter and disabled the firewall on both machines.

  I also disabled the network drives that are shared on the remote computer.

  When data powered the remote computer has been entered (ip address, username, PW, BONE family) and press us Next, the pop-up appears to deploy the Agent of Standalone converter.

  If you press 'Yes' to continue, after a minute or two the following message appears:

  -Converter Standalone Agent installation failed, error code: 1601 -.

  Can someone tell me what this error code means and how I can fix this error?

  Any help will be appreciated cincerely!

  Sincere friendships and thank you in advance,

  Can someone tell me what this error code means and how I can fix this error?

  Windows Installer error 1601 = The Windows Installer service could not be accessed. Contact your support team to verify that the Windows Installer service is properly registered.

  Additionally, make sure that the appropriate ports are open to allow the Windows agent to settle.

  Alternatively, you can manually install the converter on the remote system agent... and then try to restart the conversion (then there is no need to install anything).

• VMware Tools downloadable independent of the player?

  Done VMware installs it for the different available for download VMware tool.  At the end of the day, it's just a setup.exe, or the platform appropriate installation program that must be run on the client.

  I was just waiting for player 3.0.1 get about 80% of the way through the Tools download before it gives saying the connection to the server has expired.

  At least the tools of update mechanism works on Fusion, the player seems to have a lot of problems with what should be a simple task.

  

• Registry entry to force the installation of the updates of the player?

  Greetings!

  I tried to deploy updates to the reader through our network via GPO, but it has been a real, real problem. In addition, because some client computers are connected through slow links at the time of installation is sometimes excruciatingly long (configured computer GPO).

  SMS is not an option right now, so I think that rather than use GPOS to manage centrally the drive updates I lower my arms and leave the choice to the users. So my question is if there is some sort of a registry setting which will force the Player updates to install once they are downloaded from the Internet. Or, Alternatively, if it is a kind of login script available which would check if there's a player update available for installation and install it by force. Or, Alternatively, if anyone has found a better way to deal with the nightmare of the Reader GPO deployment.

  Hello

  Well, as you said, GPO would have been the best option to update through a corporate network. You can view the guide at http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/837/cpsid_83709/attachments/Acrobat_Enterprise_Administration.pdf. It can give you some more tips on how to maybe change your settings in order to ensure a quick installation.

  As your second question, you can use the option "Install updates automatically" for the Player update, which automatically installs updates as and when it downloads everything. The registry entry to set the same is as below:

  Before Reader 10.1:

  [HKLM] \Software\Adobe\Adobe ARM\1.0\ARM\

  Name: iCheck (DWORD)

  Value: 3

  Post Reader 10.1:

  [HKLM] \Software\Adobe\Adobe ARM\1.0\ARM\

  Name: iCheckReader (DWORD)

  Value: 3

  You can set the same using a script for connection via GPO. This will ensure that all as updates and available will settle as soon as its downloaded, provided no process of the drive is running at this time here.

  For more details on all the configurations on update preferences, please see the following document:

• I start the player. a popup says 'installation', another says it is looking for a network resource that is unavailable: setup .msi [1]...

  original title: cannot get rid of popup

  whenever I start the player; a popup says "installation", which never seems to do anything; and the only way to get rid of it is to click at the top or bottom or screen; and it is looking for a network resource that is unavailable, another said: setup .msi [1]... .and I can't get rid of it... just moving road.

  I searched this mystery file: setup .msi [1] and can't find it.

  What should I do?

  Thanks for the info.

  Looks like it's maybe a Windows Installer error... has
  whatever it is impossible to install?

  Sorry, I don't have the answer and the only idea I can
  Think to would be to restore the system to an hour before
  the problem started.

  Good luck finding the answer...

  Why isn't Adobe reader is no longer let me view previously (from Safari) download pdf? I am running OSX 10.8.5 and uninstalled and reinstalled the latest version of the player. I get this error message "Adobe Reader could not open 'OD Test Bed Proposals_0.pdf' because it is not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an attachment to e-mail and has not been correctly decoded)."  I tried to change the options 'open with' too.

  Try this:

  Go to: Mac/HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins

  Trash the files AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin

  Empty the trash

  Restart Safari. You can now download the PDFs intact.

• Impossible to use VMWare Server and Virtual PC at the same time?

  I have a Win 7 box I use VirtualPC (unfortunately, VPN to the employer only supports the 32-bit Win XP).

  If I try to start any virtual machines using VMWare Server, power on and then immediately off.  Tried several different VMs.

  However, if I disable VirtualPC, they all work normally.

  Then... there at - it a known issue with the help of Virtual PC and VMWare Server at the same time?

  BTW, I didn't see this problem when you use Virtual PC and VMWare Player at the same time.

  VirtualPC leaves the CPU of the exploitation of VMX root, which is a restricted mode.  VMware Server is problems to switch between legacy mode and long (this switch is prohibited when the CPU is in VMX root operation).  The current versions of the workstation and the player are able to circumvent this restriction.

  You can delete VM from the inventory.  Create a NEW virtual machine, punch the config of the hard disk of the computer virtual EXISTING and create a new configuration. Then migrate to move the vmx / vmdk in the same folder, delete the complete original when configuration file.

  You can be here all day trying to solve a vmx file, and it still doesn't work.  Best thing to do is start over with a new configuration.

• Windows Media Player won't let me burn CD, "connect a burner and restart the player."

  Hello

  Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
  a process that solves the problem.

  Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.

  RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue
  below.
  
  Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a coward
  cable or slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

• My WMP said that I need to connect a burner and restart the player?

  For long time now Ive been burning cd and just recently my WMP started getting a message saying I needed to connect a burner, and then restart the player. It goes the same for extraction, he said "A CD DRIVE IS NEEDED in order to RUN RIP". I don't know why he started to do this, he has never been a problem before. I have a laptop HP Pavilion with Vista Home Premium. Is there anything I can do to restore or solve my dilemma? Advice or answers would be useful.

• Download the latest VMwareTools for player and workstation

  I work with VMware player and workstation on an isolated environment.  Where can I download the latest VMwareTools for player v4, v5 and v8 workstation?

  Thank you.

  I think not for VMware for users to manually download the VMware Tools for VMware Player outside the program and VMware Workstation comes with and install the ISO Images however VMware tools, you can access the files from the program download and installs from the Repository of CDS.
