The virtual computer policies are too old to be run by this version

I installed the TP of July and for a few weeks. Just tried opening an old VM and got the error "this virtual machine policies are too old to be run by this version of VMWare Workstation." Contact your system administrator. "My other virtual machines are OK. I did a search and couldn't find a document that is open for this issue but no discussion. Someone at - it met this and find a solution? Thank you.

If there is a .vmpl file, try to move out of the way.

Be careful about deleting the files well: remove the .vmpl a limited VM will break constantly.

  • Error message: «the virtual network on the host computer drivers are incompatible...» »

    Just bought a new computer that is running Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit.

    I installed VMWare Workstation 6.5.1 build 126130.

    I copied on a machine virtual from the old computer (running Windows XP Pro and VMWare Workstation 5.0.0 build 13124). I improved this VM Workstation 6.5. This virtual machine is currently running Windows XP Pro.

    When I run the virtual machine on the new computer, I get the following error message:

    "The virtual network on the host computer drivers are incompatible with the installed application of VMWare. Version expected 5. Please reinstall the product. Virtual device Ethernet0 will start disconnected. »

    Note that the virtual machine runs; I don't have any network capacity.

    I read the thread http://communities.vmware.com/thread/186731, who seems to have the same problem. He had installed 6.5 on 5.5; When he uninstalled and deleted all of the directories, and then reinstalled everything went well.

    I don't have any product VMware existing on the computer that would cause this type of conflict.

    So, what should I try to fix this?

    Thank you

    If you want to install only vmnetadapter, open cmd as admin in vmware workstation dir and run;

    "rundll32 setupapi, InstallHinfSection VMnetAdapter1.Install 128% CD%\netadapter.inf"

    You can also repeat for vmnetadapter8.

  • I can longer open attached pdf files. I am able to preview the files, but they are too small for me to read.

    Help, please.

    I did something wrong (AGAIN!)

    I had no problem with access to attachments to my e-mails, but a problem occurred just.

    I can longer open attached pdf files.  I am able to preview the files, but they are too small for me to read.  When I click to open all the I get now is a kind of icon (in Microsoft Office Picture Manager) with which I can't do anything.

    It seems I should have arranged for Picture Manager automatically opens attachments to emails, but when this happens, I'm stuck as what I try, I can't do pdf files appear as they did.

    The help file does not really help.

    I hope it is something simple, even an old fool like me can do with your expert (and, I hope. friendly) help.

    My fingers are crossed.

  • Strange problem after moving from the virtual computer to a new data store

    I am migrating our VM existing (8 in total) a 'problem' RAID to a new table on a new controller and am having a strange problem. Here are the steps I took (host OS is Ubuntu 8.0.4 LTS x 64):

    (1) off the power the virtual computer from the Web interface

    (2) the directories created for each virtual on the new RAID array computer (in this case a RAID 10 array on LSI 9750-8i controller)

    (3) rSync used to copy the data from RAID1 to be RAID2

    4) has created a new data store on the new RAID through the Web Server of VMWare user interface.

    (5) removed VM of the inventory through the Web, their return, added user interface then choose files .vmx on new data store on RAID2

    They have all power save fine... but three of them are not accessible on the network. I can open a console in the Web Server of VMWare user interface and they all run normally... but I can't their ping or access the respective virtual machine Web GUI. It seems quite arbitrary that those who work and those who are not. In this case... the VM that don't work is a license Autodesk, a Squid proxy server and a VM of cactus. All three of these virtual machines are 32-bit Ubuntu Server VM (two 8.0.4 and a 10.0.4)... and are the only Ubuntu VM on this host. It must be signifigant but I'm not see how.

    If I delete these three virtual machines of the inventory again and add to their original location (on the RAID1) they light up AND work normally. A consultant that we were working seemed surprised, as he had also done this experiment with some of the older VMWare products. I don't see how it would be the physical location of the files of the virtual machine. Any ideas?

    We rely on the migration to ESXi soon but in the meantime, we get these a few VM out of this RAID array problem. I'm stuck.

    Depending on the application, it may be enough to reconfigure the IP parameters (they are very probably on DHCP now) for the newly detected virtual NIC.

  • Script to rename the virtual computer by name DNS listed in VC

    I am very new to powershell, and I tried to understand this by using pieces of code I found, but nothing helped.

    I'm looking for a script to take the given DNS host name for a virtual machine listed in VCenter and rename the virtual computer.

    For example.

    Host01VM01 (as shown in Vcenter) - the DNS name of the "something.xyz.com".   VM and rename it "something.xyz.com" in Vcenter.

    To run the script only for a group called "Mycluster" you can do:

    Get-Cluster "My Cluster" | Get-VM | `
    Where-Object { $_.Guest.HostName } | `
    ForEach-Object { Set-VM -VM $_ -Name $_.Guest.HostName -Confirm:$false }
    

    This script will only work for VMS that have installed VMware tools and probably only for VM which are turned on.

  • Is it possible I can get the virtual computer connectivity after restart to connect to the local network in the host operating system?

    Hi all

    For some reason, I have to disable and then enable the LAN connection in the host operating system. If some virtual machines are running during this time, connectivity all VMs for out-of-world are lost, they cannot connect to the host even more (by running the ping command). I tried a few methods to retrieve the connectivity, but all have failed, for example,

    1. reboot the virtual computer

    2. restart VMware Workstation

    3. restart the corresponding system services in the host operating system

    The only way I can retrieve all is to restart the host operating system itself.

    Yes, is there short any path, I can retrieve the connectivity of these virtual machines?

    Thanks in advance.

  • need to reconfigure the virtual computer after deployment of the vm

    Hi all

    I have a script to deploy a computer virtual to a CSV file. I need to change the configuration of virtual machine (CPU and memory) after the deployment of the vm. where the name of the virtual machine should be taken to csv. So any help is appreciated.

    Attach the script used. (downloaded and works fine)

    $vms = import-CSV D:\vm-deploy\vm-deploy.csv

    {foreach ($vm to $vms)

    $Template = get-model $vm.template

    $VMHost = get-VMHost $vm.host

    $Datastore = get-data store $vm.datastore

    $OSCustomization = get-OSCustomizationSpec $vm.customization

    New-VM-name $vm.name - OSCustomizationSpec $OSCustomization - VMHost - $VMHost model $Template - $Datastore - Datastore RunAsync

    }

    # This cmd need to run after the vm deployment completed. The virtual computer name must come from the 1 column of the CSV file

    Set-VM $vmname - NumCpu 2 - MemoryGB 5 - confirm: $false

    Write-Host "All VMs deployed" - ForegroundColor Green

    CSV file looks like this

    Name, host datastore, Template, customizing

    A simpler, but not optimal, solution is to use the Wait-job cmdlet.

    Something like that

    $tasks = @)

    {foreach ($vm to $vms)

    $Template = get-model $vm.template

    $VMHost = get-VMHost $vm.host

    $Datastore = get-data store $vm.datastore

    $OSCustomization = get-OSCustomizationSpec $vm.customization

    $tasks += new-VM-name $vm.name - OSCustomizationSpec $OSCustomization - model $Template - VMHost $VMHost '

    Data - $Datastore - RunAsync store

  • Reload the Configuration of the virtual computer after changing the VMX file

  • Move-vm can migrate a powered off the virtual computer to a DRS cluster?

    When I try to move-vm has propelled off VM to a destination of DRS cluster, he says that he cannot migrate a powered off the virtual computer to a DRS cluster.   I can explicitly name the destination of the host and it works, but that defeats the purpose of using the DRS and forces me to script on the destination hosts.

    I do something wrong or I would be able to migrate a powered off the virtual computer to a DRS cluster?

    Thank you

    -MattG

    Hello, MattG-

    I get the same behavior as you when you try to move a VM PoweredOff to a DRS cluster, specifying the cluster as the value for the parameter - Destination to Move-VM (using PowerCLI v5.1 Rel 2 v5.5 Rel 1).  Not quite what I expected.

    To work around the problem, and without having to appoint a particular host as destination, you could use some Get-Random, do something like:

    Move-VM myVM0 -Destination (Get-Cluster myDestDRSCluster | Get-VMHost | ?{$_.State -eq "Connected"} | Get-Random) -RunAsync
    

    Who should receive the machine said cluster and on a host that is in the connected state.  A subsequent operation to the market (whenever do you eventually) should then see DRS power on the virtual machine on a suitable host in the cluster.

    Maybe the dev team can comment if this behavior is the expected or desired.

    Anyway, how does do for you?
