• Restructuring of the pagefile to the guest virtual machines

  Is there a directive to rigtsize the pagefile for guest virtual machines (Windows)?

  With the hosted versions of VMware (Workstation and Server), I used to create a swap file whose size was RAM * 2 and place it on a different disk from the system disk / boot: can it be good for VMware ESXi as weel?

  Is there a better solution?

  Concerning

  Marius

  that will depend entirely on the Organization of the underlying hardware and the OS and app loading on these drives.  Having said that, generally, is not a big deal provided that machines have anyway enough RAM.

• Restarting the management agents on ESXi 4.1 / risk to restart the guest virtual machines?

  Unfortunately, we must restart management on our HP ML350 G6 agents almost once a week (unable to connect with VSphere client more, customers are works well).

  We know this Article -: restart on an ESX or ESXi Server management agents

  and this article useful: http://www.vm-help.com/esx/esx3i/ESXi_restart_agents.php

  How can we avoid the ESXi 4.1 command /sbin/services.sh restart will restart our execution of virtual machines (guests) as well?

  (Our first test shows: it restarts the guests, but it is sure, or just happy coincidence?)

  According to the second article linked:

  ... This will restart the agents installed in /etc/init.d/ and with a default installation that includes: pass, ntpd, sfcbd, sfcbd-watchdog, slpd and wsmand. He is aalso restarting the agent VMware HA (AAM) if that has been activated on the host...

  Each of the agents of this is responsible for our virtual computer operation invited?

  Do we ensure "auto start/stop" to each virtual machine too (as written in "Attention" on the first linked article)?

  I think it was on ESX 3.5 U3 corected. In any case, this happened only if you autostart enabled for VMS - the ability of ESX Server to boot VMs when it starts itself. If you do not need, leave it disabled.

  Each of the agents of this is responsible for our virtual computer operation invited?

  Not at all. Virtual machines running in a very low level of the VMkernel. Even if you lose the COS (which is your main problem here - you should check it...) the VMs will still work.

• 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

  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.

• Is it possible to transfer everything to a virtual hard disk that is smaller on a virtual hard disk that is larger in VMWare Workstation, using the same virtual machine?

  Hello

  I was wondering if it is possible to transfer everything to a virtual hard disk that is smaller on a virtual hard disk that is larger in VMWare Workstation, using the same virtual machine? In the affirmative, please could someone advise me on how to do it. Also utility management and disk transfer can be used in virtual machines to do this?

  Thank you very much

  Tim Auluck

  I'm not sure what exactly you are asking. Can you please clarify!

  Basically you can resize a virtual drive or add a second virtual disk to a virtual machine and transfer/copy files. You can also resize the virtual disk using VMware Converter for example.

• Create the new virtual machine using Java API vCloud

  Hi guys,.

  I am trying to create the new virtual machine in TIME, but I've stuck here. The API I'm using is vcloud-java-sdk - 1.0.jar.

  Could you please show me a code snippet how to do this?

  For now I do it like this:

  RecomposeVAppParamsType recomposeVAppParamsType = new RecomposeVAppParamsType();

  List the items < CompositionItemParamType > = recomposeVAppParamsType.getItem ();
  ReferenceType vappTemplateVMRef = new ReferenceType();

  // ??? seems that new reference to the new virtual machine should be here. But how to create this VM
  CompositionItemParamType compositionItemParamType = new CompositionItemParamType();
  compositionItemParamType.setSource (vappTemplateVMRef);

  Items.Add (compositionItemParamType);
  ReferenceType vAppRef is Vdc.getVdcByReference (vcloudClient, vdcRef) .getVappRefByName ("vApp_Websrv");.

  Vapp.getVappByReference (vcloudClient, vAppRef) .recomposeVapp (recomposeVAppParamsType);

  One day before I played with Web Services SDK, which is much easier to understand. I was able to create the vApp and VMs in vSphere. Is it possible to import machines virtual vSphere to vCloud? Should what API I use for this?

  Thank you

  Hello

  You cannot add a new empty virtual machine in a paralytic.

  Instead, you can add a virtual machine from an existing vapp, vapptemplate.

  To import a vsphere vm to vcloud.

  Import vsphere vm as VAPP in vcloud. VMWVimserver-> importVmAsVApp()

  The importation of vsphere vm, as vAppTemplate, in vcloud. VMWVimserver-> importVmAsVAppTemplate()

  See also the example of ImportVmAsvAppTemplate.java, which is part of the vcloudjavasdk group.

• How should be written the script for the use of the maximum memory of the guest operating system ever?

  How should be written the script for the use of the maximum memory of the guest operating system ever?

  Please teach the name of the object and the type and order, etc.

  You should be able to do it with the cmdlet Get-Stat .

  Something like that

  Get-Stat -Entity (Get-VM $vmName) -Stat mem.usage.maximum -Start (Get-Date).AddDays(-7) | Measure-Object -Property value -Maximum | Select Maximum
  

  This will return the maximum percentage in the last 7 days for the guests, whose name is stored in the variable $vmName.

  People,

  This issue has been resolved,

  Details of the problem:

  RAM 512 MB only, use JVM parameters

  "" Arguments of memory in JAVA: -Xms512m-Xmx512m ".

  If WL struck to use more memory for the start and the stop MedRecSvr2, 3 (managed server)

  Please read the following steps to correct,

  1. open Oracle VM Virtual box

  2. go to settings and select the system option (make sure that all OS turns off).

  3. go in card mother in this window select Base memory previously is changed to 1920 MB (1.875 GB) 512 MB.

  4. click on Ok.

  Then the allocated RAM will be more, for Weblogic doesn't get knocked because of insufficient RAM memory.

  
  

  Respect,

• is it a good idea to run the JAVA virtual machine inside the hypervisor?

  If I want to write a global user inside the hypervisor platform and you want to reuse some java lib, it's a good idea to install and run the JAVA virtual machine as part of global programs of the user inside the hypervisor? Thank you.

  Maybe you listen to the wrong people?

  The ESXi hypervisor is pretty well stripped of the linux console you are talking about, there is a thin busybox linux like environment, but you are strongly advised not to run anything in there.

  Performer of applications within this console may have all kinds of side effects such as severely affect the performance of your computer virtual guests.

  Why the hell would you want to run the JAVA virtual machine inside the hypervisor? What is the reason why you want to do this? If it's because you get a better return, then you're wrong, the console becomes just a little bit of resources available on your host computer.

  If this is to go directly to the features that the hypervisor provides then the VMA we're talking is the answer.

  So getting back to your question initial for EACH use case that I can think it's a very bad idea.

• Cannot create an instance of the java virtual machine

  Hi when I try to launch my sql developer get this error

  Cannot create an instance of the java virtual machine located in the path C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_38\jre\bin\client\jvm.dll, but I do not have the file in the location

  I'm trying to do

  BI CHAOS: SQL Developer: cannot create an instance of the Virtual Machine Java

  Cannot create an instance of the Virtual Machine Java

  but am not able to locate file product.conf in my machine
  

  OK, we lost time because you said never explicitly release of SQL Developer in use, and then, when I deduced this wrong, you went right with it, rather than correct me.  Remember the line from Blade Runner when Harrison Ford hits Rutger Hauer in the head with a pipe?  Than hurt!

  Anyway, since the last post (because of the osgi references in the file ide.conf) I see that you are using a version 4.0.x of SQL Developer.  You must update the file product.conf with the smallest Xmx value in order to create an instance of the JVM.  If you have not yet found the product.conf file on your system, this might help: http://www.thatjeffsmith.com/archive/2013/12/oracle-sql-developer-4-windows-and-the-jdk/

  Otherwise, ask someone in your organization COMPUTER help - keep in mind that AppData is one of those hidden Windows directories, so you'll have to tell explore to make it visible by the organize > Folder Options > view > hidden files and folders parameters.  In addition, you should use Java 7, not Java 6 - try to get that upgrade to the latest version of jdk1.7.0_xx (currently 60, I think).  Since you never said if your JDK is 32-bit or 64-bit, I can not say to use an AddVMOption, Add32VMOption or Add64VMOption.

  Best wishes

• How to set up the generic dashboard for the specified virtual machines

  I have two question about "generic dashboard":

  1. I use the tag to classify certain virtual machines by role QA, DEV or PRD. If I select "Kind of resources", and then select all VM under a label, window "metrics selector" will be watch only "vCenter generated Operation Manager", it does not show metric VM. How can I see it?

  2. If I select the 'Resources' mode, then I'll be able to see the VM metrics on the window "metrics selector", but I must key in each VM name "Label to the area", it takes a lot of time if I have a lot of VM, is there no matter what symbol I can use to match this field with name column "resource"?

  Mode 'Resources like' or 'Resource', both ok for me, I want to just install a widget to display using the specified CPU VM real fast.

  Any information is appreciated!

  You will see that vC generated Ops metric because you are looking at the tag, which is a resourcekind. This switch of resources is "not" a filter label, these are the actual resources. If you want to see all the virtual machines, select the resourcekind 'virtual machine '.

  Generic dashboard is rarely used to show - all - kinds of resources, it is generally used for static selection for specific purposes. If you want to display all types of a resource type and apply a tag filter, you can select a different widget to display this information.

  There is no symbols that can act as wildcards, as you suggest. When you are 'kind of resources' mode, you need not fill out a label for the box.

• Not configured VM prevents the recovery of the configured virtual machines?

  I try to test a recovery plan. There is a problem with one of the virtual machines on the data store. It has a disc attached to a volume that is not replicated.

  When I run the plan, it logs the error below for all of the active steps after "Suspend Non-critical VMs on recovery Site".

  Error - virtual "name VM" machines that
  are not protected by this protection group use warehouses "Volume name"
  that are in this protection group.

  I understand that I can't protect this particular virtual machine. The question is if it will prevent the other virtual machines being restored or is something else going on?

  If you have a data store in a protection group then * everything * VMs on this data store must be configured for protection, otherwise it will fail.

  That is, if it is not protected SRM is not aware, cannot stop it and which will not be able to remove the data store, etc.

• . ISO is grayed out when you try to make the new Virtual Machine

  I recently downloaded fusion VM 5 and I am trying to make a virtual machine for windows 7 without using a disc. I use an .iso file that is saved on my mac.

• Suggestion on Vcenter DB migration on the new virtual machine and enhancement vcenter server

  Hello

  I'm looking for any suggestion/plan with Vcenter DB migration steps towards the new virtual machine, and then upgrade the server vcenter

  4.1 for Update1/2

  My plan will be

  (1) creating new virtual machine.

  (2) fresh install 64-bit OS

  (3) migration Vcenter DB of the physical server to the new virtual machine.

  (4) upgrade to Vcenter Server 4.1 update 41 4.1 Update1/2

  Anything else missing then please let me know.

  Thank you

  vmguy

  Hi vmguy

  I agree with this approach

  (3) migration Vcenter DB of the physical server to the new virtual machine.

  As long as you leave the old DB in tact and simply detach and copy the DB to the new Victoria Cross.

  Before you run the upgrade on the new VC and DB.

  This way, you have a restoration plan in case something goes wrong with the upgrade.

  Just to add:

  You must migrate the ADAM database so to maintain the specified permissions vCenter

  See: Migrateing vCenter new host

  Please allow points if you find this useful/correct
