Ubuntu Server host with Intel i7 = > only 2/4 carrots for feedback Win7?

Hi all

I'm experimenting with VMWare Server 2 on linux. So I installed a light Linux (Ubuntu Server 10.10) as the host, to manage my virtual instances of Windows 7. But when I try to install Windows 7, I can only choose 2/4 carrots for her.

This seems quite a loss of my i7 processor, because I just want to run 1 virtual instance of Windows 7 and preferably as soon as possible.

Is it possible to use more of my processor? Maybe when using VMware Workstation?

Thank you very much in advance!

Best wishes

Jochen

Welcoem to communities-

What you see is the limitation of VMware Server 2 - virtual machines running under VMware Server 2 cannot be awarded 2 virtual processors - with workstation 7 you can assign multiple nuclei to the VM - check-out http://www.vmware.com/pdf/ws71_manual.pdf pg 368

  • Hosts with active Hyperthreading - best performance of the virtual machine?

    After having been involved in a recent thread on Hyperthreading activation on your hosts: -.

    http://communities.VMware.com/message/1567821

    In this thread Jason comments that when the HT is enabled he saw much better performance of virtual machines on this host, we have, I think I've also seen elsewhere.  We saw a clear improvement of the performance of our Oracle server when its on a host that has enabled HT, so much so that we have now disabled for this virtual machine DRS, so that it doesn't move off them.

    If anyone has any other given that a marked improvement?

    The specification of hosts within our farm are essentially the same, and new hosts with HT could actually could be called lower spec than our other guests so its interesting, it makes such a difference.

    In any case, interesting to see what other people have found.

  • An SMU - 8133 RT or SMU - 8106 RT (only with Intel) is possible dual Bootable?

    I'm looking for the development of a system flexible but high end standard PXI Express.

    Flexibility includes (1) Dual Boot option and (2) options for the PXI Express modules and standards.

    It will be much appreciated and will be a great help if an expert can answer my questions.

    (1) an SMU - 8133 RT or an SMU - 8106 RT is possible dual Bootable? I am interested in Intel processors only.

    (2) at - it another possible option with equivalent performance as the two above specification?   Please also indicate an Express chassis with more or less 8 slots.

    Thank you.

    A1: Yes, the SMU-8133 is possible dual bootable.  The SMU-8106 does not support RT (only the PXI-8106 (not express) package has been published as a RT controller).

    A2. I'm not aware of any other option with equivalent at this time, as the SMU-8133 is our highest performance PXI Express controller, by a little bit.  Learn the technical details a few comparisons of the 8133 for the 8108: http://sine.ni.com/ds/app/doc/p/id/ds-222/lang/en.  You should look in the SMU-1082 NI for your chassis.

  • RV082 with QuickVPN can connect to the Windows Server but not on Ubuntu Server

    We have a RV082 and are capable of using QuickVPN to connect and access our work LAN (192.168.0.0) except that we can not connect to a Linux Ubuntu Server on the local network.  Can ping (and shared access) servers Novell, a Windows 2003 server and several printers but not the linux server.

    192.168.0.1 Novell server can ping

    192.168.0.2 Server Linux ping or you connect

    192.168.0.3 Windows 2003 server can ping and connect

    192.168.0.4 - 11 different printers that I can ping and install

    I can ping and connect to the server using PPTP-Linux

    Troubleshooting tips will be greatly appreciated

    Good afternoon

    Review of your question, it would seem at first glance that the Ubuntu Server may be blocking incoming VPN traffic. I'm not sure of what firewall program you have chosen to use with your server Ubuntu, but make sure the ports 500, 4500, 443 and 60443 are open to traffic entering this subnet. If you can detect all the errors showing blocked traffic trying to hit the server, which can be useful in allowing us to determine why this traffic does not go through.

  • moving my SQL Server to another host (with vcenter database)

    Hi all

    I am in progress to improve my environment at ESX4.0. Now I have to move my only SQL server VM to the new host, who is already on ESX4.0 level. My only SQL server hosts the vCenter as database. I don't have a vMotion.

    To move my SQL vm, I need to turn it off and then migrate my ESX 4.0 host. The problem: when the SQL Server is disabled, I lose connectivity to the vCenter server and therefore cannot migrate the virtual computer to another host.

    Is there a way to fix this, or is my only option to move the virtual machine in question off vCenter SQL database?

    The physical files of the VM for SQL server on an iSCSI box and will not change the location of the data store.

    Thank you

    Open the browser of data store, right-click right the VM's vmx file and choose "add to the inventory.

  • Problem using a folder next to the East on UNIX Ubuntu 10.4 with APEX listener

    Hi Forum,

    We have APEX 4.1 installed on Ubuntu 10.4 with the latest version of the APEX-listener.

    We want to achieve is that we are able to collect our Javascript extensions and css next to the folder is in a folder of our own.
    Problem now is UNIX, this doesn't seem to be possible, because we are unable to load any resource of this folder. The only solution we could come up with is to place a symbolic link in the/i/folder-pointing to the directory we want to include.
    The folder we want to include got 777 to exclude any potential problems of access to in UNIX

    Under Windows, this doesn't seem to be the case.

    If someone had a similar problem or is able to give advice on how to fix this?

    Thank you

    Hi Jürgen,

    This does not work in stand-alone mode, the integrated nature fixed contexts (including + / i + and + / apex +) without the chance to bring custom contexts.
    It will run in GlassFish/Tomcat, if you deploy content correctly. You can do this by creating a war file that carries your files, but I wouldn't recommend it has static content more convenient ways.
    Tomcat has for example a context ROOT when running on a default configuration. This context can be used for static content similar to a simple HTTP server host, for example when using the htdocs of the Apache HTTP server as docroot. So you could simply copy your directory foo in the context of the ROOT and should be able to access the content using http://yourtomcathost:yourtomcatport/foo/file name .
    GlassFish is a concept similar to this: each domain has a docroot directory. As explained for Tomcat, you can simply create or copy your directory foo it so that it is available for your customers.

    If this does not work, you have a general problem with your GlassFish/Tomcat configuration, like the docroot has nothing to do with the earpiece of the APEX. I have just retestet with fees GlassFish/Tomcat on Ubuntu 8.04 LTS (Server Edition) as follows:
    1 download the http://glassfish.java.net/ zip or Tomcat mirror packages respectively.
    2 unzip the package
    3. create the directory 'foo' docroot (for GlassFish) and ROOT (for Tomcat)
    4. create the file 'bar' in 'foo '.
    5. start the server instance
    6 use a client remote access http://mybox:8080/foo/bar.txt and got the file.

    How did you install your GlassFish/Tomcat on your Ubuntu?
    Whatever it is, if you tried the docroot/ROOT approach and doesn't, you can always try the war file deployment. Maybe your GlassFish/Tomcat instance has disabled the docroot/ROOT context for security reasons.

    Note that you can have both, that is, you cannot use the war with framework file + / foo + and have always a + / foo + subdirectory in your docroot/ROOT.

  • Installation of Ubuntu Server 12.04 on Power Edge T110II operating system much more difficult than what he must do.

    I just bought my second Dell, a Power Edge T110II Tower Server and have encountered many problems when trying to install Ubuntu 12.04 as a BONE. In my before Dell server all I had to do was to put the ISO of Ubuntu Server image in the CD and it uploaded to the server with virtually no problem hardware what so ever. I looked through the manual and on the Internet for help with this but still I found nothing that solves this problem.

    On several occasions, I get messages error that the disc (which is an official record of Ubuntu) cannot be started or when I actually go as far as to see a screen giving me the opportunity to install Ubuntu he hangs up after only a few lines of code are displayed. I tried to do the instillation with BIOS (which doesn't seem to work at all) and UEFI which gave me a screen asking if I wanted to install Ubuntu. I might add that I did not understand how to turn off the quick start that has been proposed in a blog on installing Ubuntu using UEFI.

    I searched through the forums here to find more information on how to install Ubuntu Server on a T110II of edge Poer, but did not find anything of use at the moment. Any ideas would be appreciated with gratitude and once I found a way to install Ubuntu on the Dell Server I'll post a blog with full instructions on how to do to help others to avoid experiencing this MESS.

    BTW, the Power Edge T110II has been certified for use with Ubuntu.  See HERE! But no documentation of actual for this as of yet by Dell. :-(

    UPDATE: you don't need this RAID controller to install Ubuntu 12.04.2. See this link for a single instillation of Ubuntu 12.04 on your Dell T110II: en.community.dell.com/.../20372542.aspx

    What controller you have installed in your T110 II?   If it's a S100 or S300, it will only run Windows.   You may have damaged your Windows installation and you have to start over. .

    If you want to run Linux, you will need to change the RAID controllers.

  • Update / fixes ESXi single host with VCSA running on it.

    We have just updated since the free version of ESXi 5 by ordering the Kit of Essentials. In the process, of course, we were able to deploy vCenter Update Manager (which has been the main motivation, like patching manually the free version seemed to be quite a pain). We have a Windows host that has installed the Update Manager, and we have a VCSA running on the single instance of ESXi, we deployed to date. We were able to install the plugin on the viClient and scan the ESXi host for patches with success (a need a good number). But, we're stuck trying to install the patches... us when trying to restore the host, we get: "the operation is not supported on the selected inventory items. Check events for the objects selected for the operation.

    The host says:

    The 10.0.1.80 host has a virtual VMware vCenter machine

    Device server with VMware vSphere update

    Manager or VMware vCenter Server installed. The

    Virtual MACHINE needs to be moved to another host for the

    consolidation to proceed.

    error

    28/08/2014-16:21:32

    Clean up the entity

    10.0.1.80

    root

    Looking at this logic, for the host switch to maintenance mode, the VCSA should have been suspended (apparently, actually moved), which would avoid in turn patches / updates to the deployment. Am I correct in thinking, that we have a second host and networked storage? Made a Kit Essentials / license provide for the possibility of vMotion from one host to another? It wasn't really clear... Yes, the web site says "vMotion" is included in most Essentials, but find it me hard to imagine any point to a facility in ESXi stream without the ability to vMotion between one system and another guest...

    Welcome to the community,

    And since you have only an ESXi host and your vCSA is running on this host, you cannot patch this host with Update Manager for reason that already know you: the host should be the maintenance mode.

    Add about another host, with Kit Essentials without vMotion functionality, you can try using a data store of shared storage between two hosts, stop the vCSA on first host and switch the vCSA on the second host... and finally the first host patch.

  • Cannot send/receive at full speed with Intel dual port 10 GIG 82599 ethernet in guest on ESXi 5.5 OS

    Me to consider whether or not it is possible to send/receive to 20 Gbps throughput with Intel 82599 dual port card within a guest VM on ESXi. I use to send and receive traffic PF_RING DNA of ntop. I have configured the dual-port card Direct IO mode to allow the guest VM have a direct access to the card. For the traffic generator, I use a metal machine naked with another dual port ethernet to generate traffic. The generator of nu metal machine and ESXi have their double ethernet port directly connected via SPF + cables.

    In the first experiment, the traffic generator generates 10 Gbps of traffic on port 1. The guest VM is able to capture packets at full speed without any loss of package even for 64 byte packets, which translates into 14mil PPS. I had then invited VM pass to 10 Gbps for the traffic generator, which currently receives. However, guest VM was able to generate about 7 Gbps of traffic regardless of package size. The CPU seems to be fine at around only 20% of load. I do not understand why the VM can receive at full speed but could not pass to the line rate.

    In the second experiment, the traffic generator generates 20 Gbps of traffic on ports 2. The guest VM unfortunately can only capture at the rate of 5 to 6 Gbps per port for a total of 10-12 Gbit / s. I have the receiving process listens on each port on a different processor. Then, I got VM generate 10 Gbit/s on each port. Unfortunately, could not reach 5 to 6 Gbps per port, regardless of package size.

    The naked metal machine is only an AMD 2.2 ghz machine low range to four hearts. It can send full line ate 10 Gbps for gpbs port 1 and 20 for 2 ports. The ESXi server is actually a much beefier machine with the quad core Intel Xeon 3.2 Ghz. There is a lot of memory and CPU on ESXi machine.

    5.5 runs the ESXi server. I have 1 comments running virtual machine running experience.

    I'm quite puzzled why there is no bottleneck even in Direct IO mode. Both CPU memory seem to be good. I wonder if there is any setting that I need to be playing with in ESXi. I appreciate all help. Thanks in advance.

    It turned out that I placed the network card in the pci slot 3 which is only x 4 routing. I moved it to 1 (x 8) slot. Now, I get full 20 GIG.

    Hi ElmorStormand welcome to the VMware communities!

    Here's something to try, if it fits your environment...

    Go to the firmware of your board S2600GZ Server Host Configuration, and then choose Advanced > PCI Configuration.  Change the memory mapped IO beyond 4 GB to disabled.  Then try to start the virtual machine with active passthrough.

    See you soon,.

  • How can I reduce the size of the hard drive of my guest? (Ubuntu server)

    Hi all

    When I built my (Ubuntu Server 12.04) VM guest on VMware ESXi 5.1, I was a little over zealous and create it with a 500 GB hard drive. I found now that a 100 GB would easily suffice.

    I would like to reduce the hard disk up to 100 GB. How can I do this? It seems pretty obvious, how on Windows using the stand-alone converter but on Ubuntu server? I have no idea where to start and I can't find any info!

    Also, could someone please explain to me why the real used on this prompt on the host drive is 500 GB? When you use VMWorkstation the right file size grows with disk space actually used the guest. Then under ESXi, the size of the file begins at the size you specified for the server. This can be changed?

    Thanks in advance.

    Export OVF model is the one you want. This allows you to save the entire VM to one or several files (unique).
