• Message indicates, this program requires Windows 2000 or greater must be installed in this virtual machine.

  Trying to install a new program and keep this exact error message: "implemented cannot continue." This program requires Windows 2000 or higher installed in this virtual machine. "I have Windows XP, which is higher than 2000, and I do not know how to proceed.

  It is possible that you need XP Pro (not XP Home) installed on your home desktop. You should contact VMWare technical support for this issue. You might be interested in this forum, too:

• Error: "VMware Workstation has suspended this virtual machine because the disk on which the virtual machine is stored is almost full."

  I get this error message:

  VMware Workstation has suspended this virtual machine because the disk on which the virtual machine is stored is almost full. To continue, free 1.3 GB of additional disk space.

  I read up on the subject and found that I have to re size a partition. Anyone know what it could be? I can't find anything that looks like it has something to do with VMware. Does anyone know what size and what file system is it?

  My OS:
  Tumbleweed OpenSUSE x 64

  Thanks in advance

  On more creative, my home and root file systems were not extended to my full disk space :^)

• One of the disks of rhe in this virtual machine is already in use by a virtual machine or a snapshot

  Hi all.

  An apologize for my bad English.

  I have 10 VmWare installed on Linux Centos 5.

  I worked with the Windows 7 virtual machine and hang on it.

  Now when I try to run this VM, I get this message:

  "One of rhe in this virtual machine disk is already used by a virtual machine or a snapshot.

  I try to fix it in this way:

  Re: Could not open the hard file. One of the disks in this virtual machine is already in use by a virtual machine or a s...

  mkdir ./clone
  vmware-vdiskmanager -r "Windows 7 x64-000008.vmdk" -t 0 "Windows 7 x64.vmdk"

  cp ./backup/*vmx ./
  cp ./backup/*vmxf ./
  
  

  But after that, I got the error: "cannot change the power state of VM: can't open ' / * /Windows 7 x 64 - 000008.vmdk.»» The system cannot find the specified file.

  Please, help me to solve the problem.

  I really don't see what could be causing the problem, except that there are some .lck files in the subdirectory "lock"!

  Anyway, if worry ends snapshots and the current state is what you need, you can follow these steps (which are close to what you have already done) to merge snapshots of virtual disk in and use this virtual disk to the virtual machine:

  • Close VMware Workstation
  • Create a new subdirectory and move the VM files and folders to backup purposes
  • "" since this subdirectory run: vmware-vdiskmanager-r "Windows 7 x 64 - 000008.vmdk" t 1 '... / X64.vmdk of Windows 7 '
  • Copy the .vmx file to the parent directory and edit it as follows:
    scsi0:0.fileName = "Windows 7 x 64 - 000008.vmdk" --> scsi0:0.fileName = "Windows 7 x64.vmdk"

  Now you should be able to start the virtual machine with the cloned virtual disk.

• 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.

• 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:

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

  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!

• ESXi 5 - Longmode is disabled for this virtual machine.

  Hello

  I installed ESXi 5.0.0 469512 on a Dell Optiplex 755 with Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 processor @ 3 .00GHz with 4 GB of RAM. In the BIOS (version A21), I have the following options enabled:

  Performance-

  Virtualization: on

  VT for direct i/o: on

  Execution of trust: on

  Security-

  TPM security: on

  Activation of the TPM secure: assets

  Execute Disable: on

  I am unable to run any 64-bit OSs. For example, when I try to start vMA VM 5.0, I get the following Message from the Virtual Machine:

  "This virtual machine is configured for 64-bit operating systems. However, the 64-bit mode is not possible.

  Longmode is disabled for this virtual machine.
  For more information, see http://VMware.com/info?id=152 .
  Continue without 64 bit support? »

  I ran the "processor check for 64-bit compatibility ' and if confirmed I can run 64-bit guest OS.

  I tried to add vhv.allow = "TRUE" to/etc/vmware/config, but it made no difference.

  In the vmware.log file is that it makes meantion 'virtualization software is incompatible with the long mode on this platform. Disabling longmode. "I have attached the full logfile for details.

  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you Paul.

  According to the log file

  Frequent: MSR 0x3a = 0x3--> currently '0011', should be 'x 1 x 1 "'.

  VT - x is not enabled (bit 0 + 2 required)

  There were other debates, where that allows "Trusted execution" cause problems. I "suggest that you configure the settings of the BIOS as follows:"

  Performance-

  Virtualization: on (assuming it's VT - x)

  VT for direct i/o: Off (unless you need it)

  Execution of trust: Off

  Security-

  The TPM secure security: Off

  Activation of the TPM secure: inactive

  Execute Disable: on

  After you change the settings, you will need to power cycle the system.

• 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?

• VMware Workstation is unable to open one of the virtual disks required by this virtual machine because it is larger than the maximum file size supported by the host file system.

  I'm transitioning from Windows XP (64-bit) on a new computer with Windows 7 installed.  I undertook to VMWare Workstation 6 7.0.1 in the process.  The problem is with a very large RAID 5 volume on the new system.  It's a score of 5.45 TB (TPG and NTFS).

  When I try to start a virtual machine on this volume, I get the message "VMware Workstation cannot open one of the virtual disks required by this virtual machine because it is larger than the maximum size of the files supported by the host file system.".  This is obviously not true.  If I copy the virtual machine to another drive on the system, it starts without a problem.

  Anyone have any ideas on how to work around this problem?

  try to add this line in the vmx file:

  diskLib.sparseMaxFileSizeCheck = "false".

  Maybe it helps.

  VMDK-type do you use?

  monolithicSparse? -C' is the only part type more?

  The question:

  I am currently unable to carry out the reduction operation.

  I did a search on google and find a few scenarios:

  • http://communities.VMware.com/thread/113057

  • http://communities.VMware.com/thread/151594

  However, I was not able to solve the problem.

  The full message is as follows:

  Fret is disabled for this virtual machine.  Shrinkage is disabled for linked clones, parents of clones related, préalloués disks, snapshots, and other factors.

  This virtual machine has definitely shrunk in front.  I tried to reinstall VMWare Tools and it does not correct.  I checked that there are no snapshots in the Snapshot Manager.  I also tried as suggested by one of the sons: adding a snapshot and then remove it.  I'm unable to the fret.  Of course, this isn't a linked clone or a parent of a linked clone (do not know how to use them).  How can I tell if it is a pre-allocated disk (I don't think it's, but who knows)?

  On the file system, the looks of the directory as follows:

  • ------& lt; GUID & gt;. vmem.lck

  • \Windows server 2003 Standard Edition.vmdk.lck

  • \Windows server 2003 Standard Edition.vmx.lck

  • & lt; GUID & gt;. vmem

  • Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition.vmx

  • Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition.vmxf

  • Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition - flat hard

  Any help would be appreciated.

  The list of files that you show your virtual disk is pre-allocated (*-flat.vmdk).  As the message says, you will not be able to reduce a drive pré-alloués.
