• Converter Standalone 4.3.0 question - Get "the specified parameter was not correct" and no source listed volumes

  Sorry - hopefully an admin can move this to the correct forum. I could find no community forum labeled converter so no idea where to post this message.

  My first time trying to use the converter. Use the latest version of the Converter 4.3.0 to try a P2V by using the source computer. This is a laptop Dell D820 running Windows 7 Ultimate x 64 business. I chose the source machine and all the default settings. Destination product is VMware Workstation 7.x and target files are either local or to a port USB drive (tried both). In the last step, I get a yellow bar with the error "the specified parameter was not correct" "but the following quotes are empty and presume it suppose to say the name of the setting.» The only thing I see that is suspect is that if I click on change in section 'Data copy', the list of volumes and empty and assume that shouldn't be. The sample video to get advice on the use of converter on VMware support sites show a volume listed here. I tried the same approach on a completely different system under Vista SP2 and still no volumes appear so maybe it normal?

  No idea what I am doing wrong? I did export logs and watch and it appears no volume information has been captured (a lot of & lt; destroyed & gt ;) but even once, just guessing.) Any advice would be appreciated greadly.

  Thank you

  Don

  I had the same problem on a Win7 x 64 machine... There was no listed disk to convert.

  I managed to solve the problem by running the converter as an administrator. Right-click on the Desktop Converter icon and select run as administrator.

  The disks appears and you can select which can be the converter.

• Cannot add the vmkernel nic: a specified parameter was not correct. vSphere CLI + ESXi 4

  Hello. I try to add vmknic with frames in my distributed virtual switch.

  I read the vSphere command-line Interface Installation and reference Guideguide:

  "vicfg-vmknic - a-i DHCP"vmk5"

  I see the error message:

  Cannot add the vmkernel nic: a specified parameter was not correct.

  Vim.Host.VirtualNic.Specification.Ip

  What's wrong?

  I tried all the combinations of parameters with the same result.

  Ok! I've found a workaround.

  Since adding a vmkernel remote interface doesn't seem to work with DVS, I simply created one on a standard vSwitch and it then migrated to the DVS. And voila: the value 9000 MTU migrated intact with her! Here are the steps I followed:

  1. put the ESX host into maintenance mode - evacuate VMs manually if necessary

  2 remove the VMKernel iSCSI/NFS to the DVS interface

  3. create a standard virtual switch with no physical cards. He has no need to be a VMKernel VM Networking switch is fine. Make a note of the name you gave to the PortGroup created on the new vSwitch.

  4 using the remote control line, add the new interface vkernel specifying an appropriate jumbo MTU (9000) and the PortGroup on the standard new vSwitch. For example:

  esxcfg - vmknic.pl - Server

  If you get 3 answers, everything works. If you get failures, something has gone wrong. Go back and check that the interface is configured correctly using the command list esxcfg - vmknic.pl-.

  Enjoy!

• New-VM with OSCustomizationSpec, error "a specified parameter was not correct."

  I'm doing a script where I read a CSV file with settings to deploy multiple virtual machines. Now, I added functionality to get him to make sysprep with the help of OSCustomizationSpec and when I tested it work very well. After that, I made a few minor, such changes that added "-ResourcePool" and other things I can't remember unfortunately. Or at least I thought they were minor changes which should influence what negatively, but when I run it now I get error "a specified parameter was not correct." I found this thread saying it was a bug in the previous version, but that must have been fixed. I tried a workaround but I still get the same error. The script works well when I remove the "-OSCustomizationSpec" parameter, but it seems nothing wrong with the file I can manually deploy the virtual machines with the file OSCust from the GUI and the same models. And as I said, it worked well earlier when I used this setting. Any ideas on what "parameter", it's wrong?

  
  

  PSVersion: 4.0

  PowerCLI Version: VMware vSphere PowerCLI 5.5 Release 2 build 1671586
  

  
  

  The script starts the error message:

  Heck, I'm stupid, I think that it is Monday today!

  Just as you understand, it has something to do with the name of the computer.

  'spec.identity.userData ComputerName'.

  Or more precisely '-NamingPrefix $row.» Nu. Since this is the NETBIOS name, which can contain only letters, numbers and hyphens.

  As previously stated I'm stupid. I had $row. Defined as 'nickey_test01' and underscore name isn't a character allowed. This explains why the script already worked before when I created client VM. Guess I'll have to build in several controls in the script, for fool proof.

  Cheers for the help of Luke.

• From convert W2K3 comments led to "a specified parameter was not correct" error

  I converted a physical W2K3 server to VI3 (ESX 3.5.0 123623 and VC 2.5 119598) successfully.

  I was able to start the client afterwards, but nothing happened. Customer VI stated that the power has been a success but the machine did not come and showed again that power off.

  Making it the second and most times leads to an error message: "a specified parameter was not correct."

  I checked the hardware settings of the guest and has seen three ports series configured. I deleted the and tried to start it again. Again, the customer VI said that the power has been a success but the machine did not come and he always showed that power off and all suite trying generated this error again.

  I connected to the web interface and tried to start from there, but that has not worked, as well.

  I checked the disk space on the volume of SAN (there is an article stating that this error message appears when there is not enough space left to store the paging file in VC 2.0), but there are a lot of free concerts.

  Any ideas?

  I'm not sure why you're having the problem, but a quick fix is to create a new machine virtual just how you want with no disc, then join the VMDK virtual machine files that usually start.  The fire and see if it works.  It should be fine.  If so, you have some cleanup to do to get all the files in the same directory for the new virtual machine and removing the old VM.  Just pay attention do not remove your VMDK files!

• a specified parameter was not correct Vim.Host.VirtualNic.Specification.Ip

  Test network.

  ESX 3.5

  I want to connect ESX to Openfiler. When I try to add VMKernel I get err. : a specified parameter was not correct Vim.Host.VirtualNic.Specification.Ip

  For the IP, I entered the host IP. Clean install. No virtual machine in the inventory.

  Where to look?

  THX.

  You cannot use the same address IP assigned to the path of your host ESX service console - the VI Client is smart enough to know that the IP address is used - try using a different IP address on the same subnet.

  Hi Darren,

  I tried the code on my system and changed vSwitch1 to vSwitch0 and got the same error you did. Then I saw that you change to vSwitch0 vSwitch1 in two places in the code, line 3 and line 4. After that I changed both places it worked perfectly.

• New-AlarmActionTrigger: A specified parameter is not correct

  Hello world

  I am trying to add a new alarm action to all my alarm vCenter definitions. Nothing complicated and because I'm lazy, I tried using PowerCLI for this. It's my little script:

  Get-AlarmDefinition | % {
    $_ | Get-AlarmAction | Remove-AlarmAction -Confirm:$false
      $_ | New-AlarmAction -Email -To '[email protected]' | % {
    $_ | New-AlarmActionTrigger -StartStatus 'Yellow' -EndStatus 'Red' -Repeat:$false
    $_ | New-AlarmActionTrigger -StartStatus 'Green' -EndStatus 'Yellow' -Repeat:$false
     }
  }
  

  When I run it, the action of the alarm and the two triggers are added. But when you add the alarm fires from "Yellow" to "Red", the following error occurs:

  New-AlarmActionTrigger : 04.07.2015 16:59:25    New-AlarmActionTrigger        A specified parameter was not correct. 
      
  At C:\Users\patrick\AppData\Local\Temp\bcfe38ed-7669-43dd-a588-7e88e59d70c4.ps1:4 char:8

      + FullyQualifiedErrorId : Client20_AlarmServiceImpl_NewAlarmActionTrigger_ViError,VMware.VimAutomation.ViCore.Cmdlets.Commands.Alarm.NewAlarmActionTrigger
  

  Unfortunately I can not know what setting is not correct. The error occurs only for "Yellow" to "Red". No idea what is wrong or what did I miss?

  Thanks for the tips!

  Strange, as far as I know there is no beta 6R2 for now.

  Yes, it should work.

  You might find some clues in the vpxd.log.

  This error message appears whenever I have start my computer and windows starts (Firefox doesn't start up). 15.01 Firefox work properly otherwise.

  This started after I installed the 15.0.1 patch.

  I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox but the problem remains. Search Google for "ofpviaowu.dat" came with "2012-08-29 Firefox version 15 startup Crash Report" as the only listing.
