This virtual machine may have been moved or copied during the priming two different Macs from the external SSD drive

I am using this SSD external boot drive to start two different iMacs at work and home, making all my stuff to update this SSD.

However, when I open the virtual machine in Mac OS X Server 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) on VMware Fusion on OS X 10.8.3 5.0.3 (Cougar) installed on startup such external SSD disk, VMware asks what follows by trying to open the virtual machine on the FIRST Mac:

"This virtual machine may have been moved or copied. In addition, I saw:

Q.) VMware tells me: "this virtual machine may have been moved or copied. What should I do?

VulnHub - Frequently asked Questions

Choose "I moved it", or "I copied it"?

Is it possible to PREVENT VMware Fusion ASKING such question with each single switch to Mac (as said, I always start the two Macs at work and home from the same SSD drive)?

Thank you.

the last line and save. Right?

The order of placement of the options in the .vmx configuration file are not relevant as long as each is on its own line.

On the other hand, I hope than boot from SSD external drive to start two different Macs (one at work and one at home) will not break she like says dlhotka.

The main issue will be the differences between the CPU and according to what difference, say a Core 2 Duo vs Quad Core this by itself may be sufficient to trigger WPA on a Windows Virtual Machine.   Like many a Client in Mac OS X or OS X Client that shouldn't be a problem however with Mac OS X Server or OS X Server so that I moved it with a Core 2 Duo vs Quad Core, I have not had problems yet but the haven of the exhaustive tests with the server version.  I think it will go well, however, we should always do... maintain appropriate backups!

  • Some files have been moved and are inaccessible after installation of Vista Service Pack 2

    For several months, I had been unable to install the latest updates of iTunes, always get the message "Could not access network location %AppData%". Recently, I realized that I had apparently never installed Windows Vista Service Pack 1 or 2 and the practice which finally allowed me to install iTunes 9.2.

    The problem I have now is that one (or two) of these Service Packs created a new profile user labelled 'TEMP' folder and that's where all my iPod apps seem to have "evaporated" to. I say evaporated because iTunes cannot locate, and when I access the folder of the user 'TEMP' (even using my administrator account), I found only a few subfolders (AppData (, LocalLow, Microsoft, CryptnetUrlCache), and those are all empty.  Either way, my administrator user account no longer shows upward at all when I use my 'normal' user code

    Making windows for .ipa files search is the only way I can see same registrants, but then when I try to open the location of file (Mobile Applications C:Users\TEMP\Music\iTunes) I get an error "the location is not available", which suggests that the information may have been moved to another location.

    I am running Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit, Service Pack 2.

  • Can I have macbook start up from my external hard drive instead of the internal HD of the laptop?

    I use a macbook air 2014 model and would like to know if I can boot the mac from an external hard drive rather than the inside. The reason to do this is to save space on the laptop and updates can be installed directly on the external hard drive.

    Is this possible? Forgive me, because I'm not that tech savvy. Thank you in advance!

    Yes. Install or clone of Mac OS X on it and then select it in the pane of the system preferences Startup disk.

  • VMware Workstation 6.5 - not enough physical memory is available to power on this virtual machine

    My host is a processor Intel Core i5 (active VT) and 8 GB of RAM Windows 7 64 bit running with hardware virtualization enabled.

    Apart from McAfee Antivirus and the usual Windows updates, no other software has been installed on the host machine.

    I am running Vmware Workstation 6.5 and I installed 3 popular VM with below guest OS, s/w and memory:

    VMware ESX 4-2 GB
    Server 2003 (DC and DNS) - 1 GB

    Server 2003 (vCenter Server) - 1 GB

    However, it is not possible for me to all 3 virtual machines run simultaneously. If I turn on Vmware ESX 4 and try to start Windows 2003 VM, it displays the following message:

    Not enough physical memory is available to power on this virtual machine with its configured settings.

    To resolve this problem, set the parameters in additional memory to allow for more virtual memory machine to swap.

    If you were able to on this Windows virtual machine on that host computer in the past, try restarting the host computer. Reboot may allow you to use a little more memory host to run virtual machines.

    Can you get it someone please let me know where are the rest of the memory is busy? Size of total memory of 3 virtual machines are only 4 GB and I have to be able to run all the VMs set 3, but in this case I can't even run two virtual machines simultaneously.

    Please help what should I do?

    With 8 GB of RAM on the host allowing why only 1 GB to be reserved for all you run virtual machines?

  • Change tracking (CTK) block is supported for this virtual machine, but was refused. This will increase the CPU proxy and consumption of IOP.

    I have problems with a client of VMware image-level in an EMC Avamar backup.  So far, we have not been able to find information about this message in the backup log file.  It is originally the backup to take a very long period of time (on average 10-11 hours).

    2014-02-28 14:20:57 avvcbimage < 14681 > Info: change tracking (CTK) block is supported for this virtual machine, but was refused. This will increase the CPU proxy and consumption of IOP.

    We cannot determine why CBT is "denied".  Has anyone here run across this issue before or seen any other type of backup VMware image have denied CBT?

    Everything I checked watch that CBT is successfully activated since the file vmx for the customer to the Avamar config.

    ESXi host is Enterprise Plus 4.1.0 260247

    After spending some time on this issue, the ultimate resolution withdrew the Avamar vm and then add it again.  After that, CBT began to work properly.  It seems that there is a parameter that has been 'stuck' pertaining to this virtual machine that wasn't behaving properly.

    Only ks once again for all the help!

    Take a look at Re: how to keep or ignore the UUID when you power on a virtual machine

    This discussion addresses the same topic to answer the question if the VM was copied or moved. As to the significance of this issue, see http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1541. Basically, it is about creating a new UUID and MAC address of the VM (I copied it) or keep the same as the source (I moved it).

    of the Assembly's strong name validation failed "c:\windows\ehome\ehshell.exr". The file may have been tampered with or has been partially registered, but not totally witht the private key

    After you have installed the XP SP3.

    How can I fix this error.

    Media Center worked fine until I installed SP3.

    Hello

    I imagine the inconvenience that you have experienced, but don't worry, we are here to help solve the problem and guide you in the right direction.

    Ehshell.exe is a Windows system file that is used to run Microsoft Media Center. It is not a critical system file. However, the ehshell.exe file can become infected and cause errors trying to run certain programs. If the ehshell.exe is absent, it can also cause errors. Reinstall a clean copy of ehshell.exe with the Microsoft System Restore.

    (a) click on the "Start" menu, then click on "programs". Scroll down and click on "Accessories," then "system tools." Click "System Restore."

    (b) click on 'Next' in the system restore window to view a list of points of restoration which has been archived.

    (c) select a restore point created before the ehshell.exe file becomes corrupt or got deleted. If no restore point until this time is listed, click on "Show restore points more" to select the one that is before this date. Click 'Next' to choose which restore point.

    (d) click on 'Finish' to start the system restore. The computer will restart once the process is complete and the ehshell.exe file is reinstalled.

    If the problem persists, follow these steps:

    You try to run the following commands to re-register all Media Center services:

    (a) close Media Center

    (b) click on the start menu, choose run and type cmd , and then press ENTER.

    (c) in the command prompt, run the following commands to type (or copy/paste) the one at a time and press on enter:

    · Regsvr32.exe atl.dl

    · C:\WINDOWS\eHome\ehl Sched /unregServer

    · C:\WINDOWS\eHome\ehSched/service

    · C:\WINDOWS\eHome\ehRecvr /unregServer

    · C:\WINDOWS\eHome\ehRecvr/service

    · C:\WINDOWS\eHome\ehRec.exe /unregServer

    · C:\WINDOWS\eHome\ehRec.exe/regserver

    · C:\WINDOWS\eHome\ehmsas.exe /unregServer

    · C:\WINDOWS\eHome\ehmsas.exe/regserver

    · Restart the Media Center

    Hope this helps and let us know if you need more assistance. We will be happy to help you.
