• deploy multiple virtual machines using vmdk and SID file

  Hello

  Need to know if I am correct or miss me something... I deploy many virtual machines using method.

  1. remove the vmdk files a XP.

  2. create new folders and copy the vmdk into this folder.

  3. create virtual machines using existing vmdk files.

  4 rename the computer and join it to the domain.

  My question is, my VMDK files are an existing xp VM (no longer exist), what is the status of the deployed virtual machines? they still have the same SID or it is changed? I managed to join to the domain, but do not want surprises in the future.

  Note:

  I had another option, could have all these automated with new SID using PowerCLi, unfortunately, osCustomization has default, I can't event run the get-OsCustomization command, it keeps failing.

  Thank you.

  Yes, Windows writes the SID on disk (virtual disk for virtual machines) or physical disk for physical machines.  The guest operating system has no idea on the vmx file.

• Virtual MACHINE using GHS restore CD

  I'm new to VMware and I'm trying to implement a virtual machine using XP Home.  I created the virtual machine and I am trying to use the restaurant 3 CD to install the operating system.  The first CD works fine, but the second can not open the file .ghs.  When I try to open the .ghs file it shows same not she, but a .gho file is there, but does not work.

  Any suggestions?   I need to convert a .iso?  If so, how?

  Thank you.

  Theoretically, you can't use restore CD to configure a new virtual machine, because they are technically linked to the computer to which they belong.

  Because the virtual hardware for a virtual machine is completely different with the material belonging to the restore CD, I don't expect that it will work well. For the case, it works well, you could face activation problems, due to the completely different (virtual) hardware.

  You might need a copy of XP retail to do a clean install of XP.

• Create a virtual machine using an existing backup [EXSi 5.0.0]

  Hello

  I've looked everywhere to find a thread that explains me to reach higher. Our ESXi is currently a backup copy using ghettoVCB and store it on an external NAS. I know that I can simply restore a backup virtual computer by using the same script, because it supports.

  But what I want to achieve is to create a separate entrance to the virtual machine by using an existing backup. I'm pretty there is a way, but I now know how to because I'm fairly new to ESXi and learn things slowly.

  All advise you will be highly appreciated and thank you in advance.

  Hello

  I finally managed to do that. I should tried before posting this discussion, but somehow he's ready now. Back to ESXi users who are finding similar questions or have a confusion on how to achieve this, you can see below the process and this;

  1. Before you copy, make sure that you have appropriate files related to the virtual machine (there should be a .vmx, hard & sometimes flat hard-000)
  2. Copy the folder to the location of data store where is your VM (generally, it will be under/vmfs/volumes/yourdatastore) using ssh and WinSCP (a tool to connect in ftp/sftp/scp).
  3. Once copied into the data store, go to the data store by visiting configuration > store > select the data store & access your virtual machine directory, then simply add the .vmx file to the inventory by clicking on the right (Note: do this when you are connected to the ESXi using vCenter IP which is the recommended way to do).

  I hope this helps!

• I can't access my Virtual Machine when the internet connection is disabled...

• Create a virtual machine using the ubuntu (host of W7) partition

  I am running Windows 7 and 8 of VMware Workstation.

  The disc is actually a raid-0. There are 3 partitions: (Dual-boot)

  -Ubuntu (64-bit)

  -System reserved Windows

  -Windows (64-bit)

  I am trying to create a virtual machine under W7 using the Ubuntu partition.

  I tried 2 things for step 'select a physical drive:

  -Use individual partitions. The problem is at the end, when you click Finish. I get the error: "one of the provided parameters is not valid."

  -Disc use whole. The virtual machine is created, but when I turned on, I get the error:

  "Could not open the disk ' C:\. [..] \Ubuntu 64 - bit.vmdk' or one of the snapshot disks it depends on.

  Reason: the physical disk is already in use. »

  Thank you in advance for answering,

  Kind regards.

  In my tests I couldn't use a host physical diskwith a Windows 7 without setting the disc 'offline '.
  But then you can set the diskette from Windows Startup 'offline '.

  Using Linux or 2003, you don't have this problem.

• Who is looking at my virtual machine using the VSphere Console at the same time?

  People,

  I would like to know if it is possible to know what VI Client / vSphere console user currently displays the Vmware console at the same time for a particular virtual machine I'm working on?
  Because right now, someone else is my VM console access and may have forgotten to close the VI Client and now I'm stuck.

  This is the error that I got when I try to connect to the console. Internal error MKS due to the 'RemoteDisplay.maxConnections with a value of 1"is in force.

  Thank you

  Hello, AlbertWT-

  Well, it seems that there is another way.  You can get the number of current connections of MKS (mouse keyboard screen) for the given virtual machine and uses this value to your Select statement.  Which must correspond with the users with current MKS connections to this virtual machine.

  So, what to put with what hosted proposed and you changed, it would be like:

  $strVMName = "myVM"## get VM; will use an ExtensionData value from this later$vm = Get-VM -Name $strVMName## get the events that are for console connects, sort, and then select the first X items, based on the number of current MKS connectionsGet-VIEvent $vm | ? {$_.FullFormattedMessage -like "Remote console Connected*"} | Sort CreatedTime -Descending | Select UserName, CreatedTime -First $vm.ExtensionData.Summary.Runtime.NumMksConnections | ft -AutoSize
  

  And, a variation on the last line, the one who checks the type of the VIEvent (vs do a string comparison):

  ## same, but check the event type instead of a string compare on the FullFormattedMessage (just to not rely on string compares)Get-VIEvent $vm | ? {$_ -is [VMware.Vim.VmRemoteConsoleConnectedEvent]} | Sort CreatedTime -Descending | Select UserName, CreatedTime -First $vm.ExtensionData.Summary.Runtime.NumMksConnections | ft -AutoSize
  

  The two should work, but the second version removes the dependency on the string comparison.  For example, if the FullFormattedMessage changes in the future implementations of vSphere, things should still work (However, this would be still vulnerable to break if VMware changed the name of the type of the event).  A bit of a preference thing.

  How does do for you?

  Note: by sorting on Createduserid, this process assumes that the current console connections have been made in the order.  In other words, if someone has been connected to the console of the virtual machine since yesterday and connect / disconnect / reconnect, _you_ will be the last two events Connect.

• Trying to copy a virtual machine from one server to another

  Hi all

  I'm new to ESXi 4, although I used VMWare Workstation for years.  I am trying to copy a virtual machine from a Windows system (Sysprep) from one host to another.  The two hosts are identical systems with the exact same ESXi host configuration.  Same hw, same version of ESXi, same setup, same size of the partition.

  When I use the Vsphere data store browse to 'download' the vmdk and vmx files to a local drive (Windows Server 2003), I get the following 3 files: the same vmx file, a tiny vmdk file and a file huge filename - flat hard.  The file vmdk on browser to store data from the source host is about 23 GB.  The flat on the local system vmdk file is almost 63 GB.

  Can I reopen Vsphere on the destination server and "load" the 3 files in a directory that I created in the data store.  Once there, I use the browser "Add to inventory."  When I try to turn on the virtual machine, I get the error message "not enough space on the data store."

  Any ideas of what I could have done wrong?  Again the data store configuration is identical:

  Local disk to VMware: 62.95 GB, Total formatted capacity: 62,75 GB.  1 VMFS 3.33 MB block size it's the only VM on the system.

  Thanks in advance,

  Mark

  What you see is by design.

  When you try to copy a disc loaded end service, with the browser data store or FastSCP, the virtual disk will be inflated. Use the converter such as recommended by AlbertWT.

  Since the virtual disks of destination must already 60 GB of disk space you may not able to power on the virtual machine, because there is not enough disk space for the swap file, which is the size of the configured RAM (less reserve, if necessary).

• Problems of establishing a virtual machine using Microsoft SCCM

  Hello

  I'm trying to deploy a virtual machine with Microsoft SCCM. It works very well - but only if I create the vm on the local disk on the esx server. After a success of creation, I can then migrate the diskfile of a SAN LUN.

  If I try to do the same thing directly in a virtual machine with the diskfiles not on local drives but on the SAN, then the Setup program will fail in most cases. It is not always the same point in the installation program - it can be anywhere in the process of staging by sccm. Seems to be a period of waiting or something and obviously seems to be a problem with the SAN storage...

  ... then... I'm the expert on LAN, or SCCM expert--while hoping, someone else knows this problem and there are probably certain parameters to change to avoid a timeout or something.

  Storage system is HP EVA 4400. ESX is vSphere 4.0.0 208167.

  Best regards

• Failed to create virtual machine using VMWare Workstation 11 (test)

  Hello people,

  I installed VMWare Workstation on my machine Windows 10 and trying to create multiple virtual machines to test the object. I have done this before on the Windows 7 computer and did not face any problems, but this time, as soon as I gave the location of the file to deploy an operating system it comes up with some fatal errors as error BLK_CACHE IOERR if I have enough space on the HARD drive and everything is not going further. So, my question is if my computer has compatible with Windows 10 problems or there is something else that would cause this problem. Any help or comments would be appreciated on this topic.

  Thank you!.

  Thanks for your answer, Noel

  I was going through discussions in the community with similar and found subjects that VMWare had released 12 pro workstation that supports Windows 10 entirely. I personally installed it on my physical machine and it works. Here is the link for the release of Workstation 12 notes.

  • Name of VM - windows2003
  • CPU - 2
  • Memory - 2096 MB
  • Name of ESX - esxserver1

  VCLI orders are mainly used for configurations of the host, although as part of the installation of vCLI, you get also vSphere SDK for utilities Perl - http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/viperltoolkit/viperl41/doc/vsperl_util_index.html that provide additional canned scripts, which allows you to create a single set of virtual machines using the vmcreate.pl script.

• In opening the virtual machine: "could not find a peer valid to connect to" or "error of Transport (VMDB) - 32" / "-14" ""»

  Hello

  Since yesterday after a reboot of my host (DELL E6410, W7 SP1 64-bit, 8 GB RAM, 2x750GB SATA3 running WorkStation 9.0.2 Update Windows Update), I can't open my existing VM.

  I often get "can not find a valid peer to connect to" and sometime before: "Transport (VMDB) - 32 error: Pipe: reading is not'or'error of Transport (VMDB)"-14: fitting broke"»

  I worked for 2 years on this machine without a hitch, WS7 reclassification in WS9 without any problem.

  FYI: we have changed the domain 3 months ago, but it has never be a problem.

  I have google and search several Forum. So far, I tried to:

  -restart the service vmware-auth as an administrator

  -launch vmware.exe administrator

  stop/start the vmx86 service

  -uninstall / reboot / install Workstation.  3 times. First using uninstall from the Control Panel, then doing a / clean before installation and finally track down any file/reg entry.

  -HE asked if any group policy changes were made recently (like not allowing to run vmware.exe?)

  -Rename vmware.exe (logs I look similar to what is in this post: http://communities.vmware.com/thread/331099?start=0 & tstart = 0 ... but no luck)
  

  -excluded vmware.exe in my AV (Microsoft ForeFront). Unfortunately, in that I'm not allowed disabled...

  -Open the virtual machine using the drive == > does not work either.

  This isn't a file corrupted in a virtual machine (even backup - 7zipped - don't work on my laptop... but the launch on the other).

  Even a newly created WM (boneless), unbootable! :-(

  *, BUT to BE NOTE *: if a virtual machine is created as a shared virtual machine, I can start the application locally remotely! And this same VM, if started (via the.vmx) does not work using Workstation GUI!

  I have attached 2 newspapers. Work a (vmware.log remotely) and the inactive (vmware-vmx - 4072.log thru WS GUI).

  Of after what I saw (and what little I understand), it's as if the CPU is not detected?

  The two newspapers have this line:

  FeatureCompat: EVC masks:

  but the non-working goes - we with

  Module CPUID initialization failed.

  While working it display information on CPU (hostCPUID name / family / type... etc...)

  Any idea is welcome.

  I'll answer me to my problem!

  A lot of research to this knowledge.

  In summary: don't mess with the processor affinity... or keep it in mind!

  Response to distinguish:

  I installed 6 months ago a small utility named prio (search for "PRI prnwatch"), because it can save the priority of a given process. What I did notice, is that it also save the processor affinity ! What happened: I probably changed the affinity once for a VM running to give greater priority to a 7zip archive process to complete more quickly (setting HT no core to 7zip and one - or 2? - HT core to VM). Everything works until the next reboot, where the CPU detection during * start EVERY * VM has been somewhat "damaged" leading to the wrong log message: failed initialization Module CPUID.

  This is the reason of *my* question. Perhaps it might help someone else?

  TIPS:

  For advanced people who do not want to check the processor affinity of each process in the Task Manager, you can try this Windows Powershell command (remember to launch PowerShell as an administrator):

  Get-Process | Format-Table-PriorityClass name, ProcessorAffinity property

  ProcessorAffinity column gives the number of representation of the authorized core, 1-bit by heart.

  15 = 1111 is all possible core (for a logical processor 4). Mine is 1 CPU with 2 core HT <=>4.

  LSB is the core lowest. So if you allow only core0 and core3 (1001) on a process, the number of ProcessorAffinity will be 9...
