• Alert - the virtual machine CPU usage

  A virtual computer that is running Windows 2000 reports almost every day an alert on "use of the processor of the virtual machine.

  According to my knowledge, add a CPU to a Windows 2000 Server is not easy as with recent versions of Windows, is correct?

  The 5.0 ESXi host is not CPU ovrloaded, so I don't think that adding a CPU reservation can change anything...

  So, what is the best way to solve the problem with the minimum impact on the VM guwest?

• VMW Virtual Machine CPU Utilization - script

  Hello team,

  As you know the virtual machine CPU usage will check for crampons, drops drama or sustained high levels in the use of the CPU on a virtual machine.

  But I'm looking Foglight to trigger alert when it reaches more than 95%, I want that all alerts to change radically.

  Here's the script available right know.

  could someone let me know how?

  history = #utilization of $scope.hostCPUs for 90 min #;

  average = avg (history);

  STD = stddev (history);

  If (mean.isNaN (): std.isNaN ()) return false;

  If (Max (History)< 0.5="" *="">

  Returns false;

  If ((#utilization de $scope.hostCPUs # > (moyenne + Registre ("VMW:cpu.)))) ((STDev.warning') * std)) | (#utilization of $scope.hostCPUs #)< (mean="" -="" registry("vmw:cpu.stdev.warning")="">

  || (#utilization of $scope.hostCPUs # > registry ("VMW:virtualMachineCPU.warning")))

  )

  Returns true;

  on the other

  Returns false;

  Thank you

  Hi Vivek,

  You could disable this rule of origin and create a new one with this condition:

  If (#utilization of $scope.hostCPUs # > registry ("VMW:virtualMachineCPU.critical")))

  Returns true;
  on the other
  Returns false;

  Let me know if it works,

• How to move the virtual machine from one host to another?

  The two boxes under ESXi 5.0 (hypervisors freely licensed).

  I have a virtual machine (FreeBSD) that I need to go to another box.

  Network ports are not the same, but I guess that's not a biggie to reconfigure the network cards. Other than that, I have to follow a few best practices/SOPS or copy & paste is everything I need to run perfectly on a different host?

  Thank you very much!

  FastSCP allows you to copy directly between hosts, so it can save a lot of time you copy.  I don't know what you mean by 'manually' copy files.  Do you mean using the vShpere client and download the files to a location then download them to the new host?  Either way works perfectly, but FastSCP you must save a step.

  If you have currently snapshots, you can consolidate first or leave em and just copy them with the rest of the virtual machine. There should be no need to do something with snapshots, if you perform a migration 'offline '.  As long as you take all the files, snapshots will be displayed on the destination host computer when you save the vm on the host.

  I did 'on-line' migration of large virtual machines first to the take a snapshot on the source host, copy basic to the first destination host disks while the virtual machine was still running on the source host.  When I was ready to migrate the CPU processing, I power off the virtual machine, copy the other files (which would include the deltas from disk and whatnot) and turn on the vm on the destination host (which would cause only a few minutes of downtime).  Later, I consolidate records by removing the snapshot on the destination host.  Way to a poor man to do a migration of vm on ESXi free edition with little downtime.

• ESXi and virtual machine CPU cores

  The question I would ask is the ESXi processor cores and relationship of the virtual machine CPU. Is it recommended to assign some carrots to VM (this is assuming that the VM needs CPU extra for reasons of performance)? We will use the following example. If the host ESXi lies the VM has 40 cores of the processor is recommended to assign carrots in 2, 4, 8 format to the virtual machine? And that's okay assign 6 since 40 is not divisible by 6.

  jrmunday: when it comes to carrots vs sockets, they are there for purpioses licenses, other than one vcpu is a vcpu

  soda: each kernel is a vcpu, so you should not worry of the underlying hardware and the divisibbility... It is not a mathematical formula to be used on the basis of underlying archatecture. the only reason underlying archatecutre would be important is VCA differences, not the underlying differences.

• VI Client shows 95% starting a virtual machine but the virtual machine is already up

  VI Client shows 95% starting a virtual machine but the virtual machine is already running and so for a few days. E customer VI is not refreshing or the management console should be cycled/restarted?

  ESXi, correct?

• Unable to start the virtual machine after Migration - ESXi hosts

  Last night I wanted to move a virtual machine to a host of test to a production cluster.  All hosts (test and production) have shared access to the same LUN, so I usually am able to simply remove the virtual machines of the inventory in the test environment and add them to the production environment by accessing the .vmx on the data store file.  Two of the 3 hosts migrate perfectly and are running in the production environment.  However, the third server, while the migration starts.

  First he gave me errors that it was missing some files.  The only thing I did was different to rename the folder for the virtual machine on the data store.  It was called 'New Virtual Machine' for a reason, so I renamed it to "Antivirus."  However, something strange happened.  Instead of renaming the folder, it seems was created a new folder named "Antivirus" and the old folder 'New Virtual Machine' was still there.  In addition, the renamed folder 'Antivirus' had only SOME of the files needed.  So I just copied from the old folder in the folder "Antivirus" and he hung up the virtual disk of 20 GB file.  So I closed the VI client and checked the vdmk 20 GB folder and back this morning is in the folder with other files.  However, when I try to start the virtual machine, I get the "cannot access a file because it is locked" error message.

  I've done some detective and I noticed that in my second datastore where was the other folder vdmk, the file was now .40kB in size.  Looks like I've lost my other vdmk folder.  What happens here?

  It looks that the virtual machine was still running when you tried to change the name, so the old folder could not be renamed because of the lock. That's why a new folder has been created instead, and why your vm hung on the vmdk file until the lock has been released. Don't know what happened to the 2nd vmdk file, but the file vmware.log in virtual machine directory must have some info as to why does not start the virtual machine. If the 2nd vmdk is gone, this might be a reason.

• High using the Virtuakbox virtual machine CPU load

  I have a MacBook Pro 2.5 GHz processor dual-core Intel Core i5 (Turbo Boost up to 3.1 GHz) with 3 MB L3 cache.

  I use VMware Fusion Pro 7.0.1 (2235595) to install and use Windows 8 to run the Simulator on my MacBook internetworking solution.

  These simulators come with Oracle VM VirtualBox and they used to run in the Windows virtual machine on my MacBook Pro with no problems.

  So far, no problem!

  However, after upgrading to OS X Yosmite 10.10.1 simulators no longer work due to the high utilization of the processor by VBoxHeadless.exe

  I deleted the virtual machine, I uninstalled VMware Fusion and reinstalled, then reinstalled the Windows operating system, makes all the possible update and finally installed solutions simulators without success to have any Simulator market, they used. The reason is always high utilization of the processor by VBoxHeadless.exe as seen in the following images:

  

  I then moved to bootcamp and all do it again. Now simulators all run as before but on windows on the bootcamp partition.  Now I can even run a lot of devices in simulators like in the following photos with no problems:

  

  

  Please, do you know how I can fix this problem? I prefer to use VMware fusion because it gives me more room for what I want to achieve compared to the bootcamp.

  There is a difference between the hosts with regard to the information provided by windows on the ability of the virtualization of the MacBook.

  I thank very you much in advance!

  Kind regards

  Please note that the forum is not taken in formal charge and that this is a forum where users help other users.

  Your problem unfortunately was not something that other people recognized as a problem they had seen or they simply didn't have the time to answer.

  The majority of the Fusion users will not also have installed VirtualBox.

  However, I am glad to hear that you found a solution (in a restaurant) and please let us know.

• Settings of CPU and memory of reserve on the virtual machine running...

  Hello.

  I have two virtual machines in production with CPU and memory settings of reservation applied as shown below. I want to adjust these settings of reservation to "zero" for the CPU and memory on both virtual machines.

  I can make these adjustments while VMS are running, or do I need to power their first?

  Any advice would be appreciated.

  Thank you!

  

  

  Welcome to the community,

  Booking of resources being completely transparent for the customer, i.e. a host function, there is no need to turn off the virtual machines. Basically all settings in are available to be changed in the editable GUI generally without interruption of service comments.

• Error! The CPU was displayed by the operating system of Fords. Power off or reset the virtual machine

  Why when I try install Mac Os Yosemite in VMwareplayer when the virtual machine starts, I get this error:

  The CPU was displayed by the operating system of Fords. Power off or reset the virtual machine

  I have an AMD A10 processor

  VMware does not support the operation of Mac OS X in VMware Player/workstation!  Also, legally virtualisables versions of OS X running in a Virtual Machine can be done when done in the Apple brand hardware but when done while running under OS X, and for that, you need VMware Fusion not VMware Player/Workstation (or use ESX/ESXi on Apple brand hardware) you violate Apple's SLA for this product.  So any help can you provided for OS X in this use of the scenarios that it would violate the community VMware operating conditions to do.

• Help. The CPU has been disabled by the guest operating system. Power off or reset the virtual machine. WHY?

  Greetings.

  I have a 5.5 with an operating system Red Hat 5.10 ESXi environment. The OS worked fine until a few days ago. ESXi displays the error "the CPU has been disabled by the guest operating system. Power off or reset the virtual machine. I Don t know why my server displays the error if my environment was OK. Could be a kernel problem? operating system problem?

  Ideas?

  Thanks for the help.

  Have a look here. http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalID=2000542

  Did you recently patch your VM? Looks like when the guest operating system runs the incorrect commands that it can have a deactivated processor.

• Cannot use 'lab1' host because the host CPU is not compatible with the judgment of the virtual machine suspend state.

  I see that this error was mailed here, but can't seem to find a position with a resolution.

  We use Lab Manager 4.0.4 and just upgraded the hosts in our laboratory.  Before updating to ESXi 4.1 ESX 4.0 u1, we cancelled all VMs in all configurations.  There is none who were suspended, they were all turned off.  We have improved vcenter 4.0 to 4.1 as well.  We moved from a dell poweredge 1950 with two quad core intel L5410 to a r610 with two quad core intel processor E5506.

  When I try to turn on some of the lab configurations (our VM models all work fine), I get this error:

  • Cannot use 'lab1' host because the host CPU is not compatible with the judgment of the virtual machine suspend state.

  I threw the State for the lab configuration (even if it was turned off and cancelled) and still get this message.  I guess the processor architecture of these chips is quite similar, and both are Intel.

  If I go into this directory of Manager of laboratory inside the data store for one of these virtual machines that does not light and add to the inventory, he turned and starts fine on my server esxi 4.1.  So how do Lab Manager to get account it's well deploy and start it?

  Hey billk.

  Although not supported completely, you can solve it by going to the SQL of Lab Manager database.  Make sure that you back up your database before you do anything like that.

  Open the table "fsdir" and corresponds to the dir_id with the id Lab Manager VM.  Once you find the relevant line, change suspend_proctype_id to null (Zero-Ctrl).  You can do this while Lab Manager is still running.

  The results can be unstable (i.e. Windows can crash if it was a drastic change of CPU), but at least you look at a hard reset.  The bat reset certainly not being able to return to the previous state.

  Also note that while Lab Manager does not include CVS, if you activated, your virtual machines still work in CVS mode.  If you have a mixture of heterogenious of hosts in a cluster for Lab Manager, you can see this question pop up a lot.  There is absolutely nothing wrong with take back the virtual machine because of the VCA, but Lab Manager thinks otherwise and prevents it.

  Do you mean that because I'm under ESX 4.1 on VMWARE WORKSTATION, that is why I will not be able to run a 64-bit guest operating system?

  Yes, this is the case, and there is no work around.

• Using vmrun to obtain an IP address when you run the virtual machine mode headless fails customers

  Operating system: OS X Yosemite 10.10.5

  VMware Fusion: Professional Version 8.1.1 (3771013)

  When you run a VM guest in headless mode I can't use vmrun to get IP clients. If I eventually bring to the top/start the merger GUI, the command returns the IP address as planned. It is always reproducible.

  $ vmrun -T fusion start "path/to/MyVMs.vmx" nogui

  I tested with open-vm-tools and tools VMware packaged with the merger and the behavior is the same. I also spoke with others on the channel of freenode #vmware who have confirmed that the problem exists for users of workstation as well.

  Hi danandham,

  Welcome in the vmware community. Iyou s really a problem, we try to fix it.

  After a command, you can use as a workaround:

  vmrun t fusion getGuestIPAddress "path/to/MyVMs.vmx" - wait
