USO of memoria Máquina virtual Windows Server 2003 R2 STD

Hola dear grupo,

Queria hacerles una consulta no dado than no entiendo como memoria RAM asigna a las maquinas Office ESXi 4.0. 2 detallo docking 1 del ESXI donde indica el uso en el host memoria y otra el administrator of tasks of Windows where indicates that tiene mas memoria RAM Escalin Québec esta using in el ESXi host.

How this can be?

Desde el tiempo por leer mi message thank is.

A gran Saludo!

Hola MMorana

ES debido has the technology of VMware, llamada overcommitment, decir, you server ESX overcommited, lo cual esta are no bueno, desde el punto performance vista, pero esta tecnologia hace as el ratio of page para servidores ESX sea Mayor in otras soluciones Virtualizacion.

  • Tecra A10 - 12O: installing the driver network card in Windows Server 2003 R2 Std

    Hello

    I received 6 laptop Tecra A10 - 12O, and we need to install Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard Edition with SP2 in all these six machines. Windows Server 2003 has been installed perfectly, but now we have only the network LAN card to work but we are unable to install its driver. When I installed Windows XP from the supplied DVD for Toshiba, it says Intel 82567V Gigabit network adapter. I tried to download the drivers for this adatpor of drivers Toshiba, Intel Web site, but it will not install in Windows Server 2003. I also tried manually force to choose and install a driver from the list, I choose that it will install but shows yellow question mark in Device Manager means that it does not work with this driver.

    I also tried the same Intel 82567V drivers from some sites non-Toshiba, of these models using the same network card, but is not truck drivers at all.

    I understand these laptop computers does not support Windows Server 2003, but these were ordered to be used as servers with Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition and I am required to make the Installer only with activated and installed network adapter.

    I try last week and exhausted all means to get the installed network adapter driver, but all have failed. Can someone please help with this? All support will be highly appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hey Buddy

    If I m not wrong Windows Server 2003 uses the same drivers as Win XP and I guess that it s driver problem not a LAN, but perhaps also the problem of Windows Server 2003 installed.

    You are right; the LAN chip seems to be Intel 82567V and the LAN driver downloaded from Intel page should work 100%.

    In your case, I would recommend installing the chipset driver.
    Remove the LAN card from Device Manager, then restart the laptop.
    Then go back to Device Manager and update driver in pointing devices Manager to the place where the driver downloaded LAN was stored on the HARD drive.

  • DVD player not recognized after starting in windows server 2003 r2

    I installed Windows Server 2003 R2 Std on my HP DL180 G6 by using the internal DVD player, but after booting into windows, the DVD drive could not be recognized and it's showing in the 'PCI device' Device Manager under "Unknown device" with a yellow question mark. I googled and tried some of the solutions, also tried to reformat and reinstall Windows, but still facing the same problem. HP support gave me some solutions like updated BIOS, erasing the CMOS memory, unplug and plug back the sata cable, but always without success.

  • Virtual machines, run extremely slow when the console is consulted 2 virtual machines Windows Server 2008 64-bit, Windows Server 2003 32-bit, 2 VMWare for virtual machine

    I'm in a difficult situtaition here.  I am the daily contact with a new client.  My linux guy, who is also my boss who is very busy, asked me to do some research trying to find answers for what's not on this server. We have a dual Quad Core 2.5 Ghz Lenovo server with 10 GB of ram.  2 500 GB hard drives are Raid 1.  We run Virtual Server VMWare 2 on a Debian with Gnome installation as a user interface for the side of things Linux.  Grub is the boot loader. There are two virtual machines running on the server.  The one machine that serves as a domain controller is a Windows SBS 2008 Server 64 bit, and the secondary machine has no responsibility domain.  The second machine is a Windows Server 2003 32-bit.  the 10 GB of ram 6 GB is allocated to the SBS server and 4 GB to the 2003 server.

    The problem I am running into is that everything is so slow, especially if I connect remotely to do any sort of administration on the network.  Some examples of issues I've noticed is that as soon as I log on the server via Remote Desktop SBS console management Windows Server spike to 80-95% CPU usage and it will not stop unless I close the management console.  Another instance is that if I open Backup Exec 12.5 on the SBS server it will kill the speed of the processor as well.  Long story short, there are a lot of machine to do what we need to do, but something is not configured right and non of us know what it is.  Another point to note is that the server has been in production for about 3 weeks, and the server seemed to have locked up just twice.  My professional guess is that over time, some chose thing is eating causing the crash of the memory.

    Sorry I do not have much technical insight on this topic, but this is the best I have to offer.  Any questions you all have, I'll ask my people and see if I can answer, but I could really use your help here.

    Thank you in advance,

    Heath

    2 things:

    1 you really need hard drives more than 2 in a RAID 1 for proper performance under load. More disks the better. Although I don't think that's what your problem is, he'll probably be the problem Next you will do.

    2. I don't know exactly where the configuration file is on your box of Debian for VMware Server, but you should consider adding the following options in the configuration file (on windows, it's the vmware 'config.ini'):

    prefvmx.minVmMemPct = "100".

    MemTrimRate = 0

    sched.mem.pshare.Enable = "FALSE".

    mainMem.useNamedFile = "FALSE".

    If you do some research, you can read about what these options (the largest is the memory page sharing - it should only be left on if you have a bunch of similar virtual machines running on the same box, that you don't have.) I honestly know why this is on by default, he kills the CPU when virtual machines are running different operating systems). These are the options that I now use standard in VMware Server deployments, with huge performance increases after you have added the. Just give a try.

    Edit: Also make sure that you have installed in your virtual machines VMware tools.

  • Allocation of memory in Windows Server 2003 Enterprise

    Hello

    I have installed Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition x 86 with 4 GB of RAM in a virtual machine running on ESX

    3.5 and the VM shows that 3.75 GB of RAM allocated. He also

    Watch he uses physical address Extension.How is possible to get this server to see the full 4 GB of RAM. RegardsDave

    Short answer is you can't.  It is based on the Intel Architecture.  It depends on the chipset and other factors, but basically the 32-bit operating system has a limitation in the 4 GB limit.  If Intel has planned no people would use this amount of memory in the x 86 original, therefore that the limitation exists.  Missing memory is tied up in video memory and other things that must be less than the limit of 4 GB.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/279151

    SYMPTOMS

    If you use a computer that has more than 4 gigabytes (GB) of memory installed, system, Microsoft System Diagnostics (WinMSD) properties or other system utilities declare a value of memory which is 256 megabytes (MB) less than the total physical memory that is installed.

    Back to top

    CAUSE

    This problem can occur if a server uses the Intel Profusion chipset. In the dead (ROM) computer memory, memory 256 MB high region is reserved for mapped devices in memory of input/output (i/o). The amount of physical memory reserved may increase according to the number of devices of e/s that are installed on the computer. In general, a computer that has 4 gigabytes (GB) of memory real physics looks as if it has 3.84 GB physical memory total.

    The Profusion of Intel is a chipset eight-way symmetric multiple processing which is designed for enterprise-level server programs. It focuses on the power of raw processing and IO high speed performance that are commonly found in servers Dell, Compaq, Hewlett-Packard (HP) and 8-way IBM. The amount of memory consumed can be greater than 256 MB; However, the memory increases by increments of 256 MB.

    ____________________________________________

    "The MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo probably uses the Intel 945 PM chipset, which can physically handle the 4 GB of DDR2 RAM. However, a number of items that should be stored in and what RAM reached 4 GB physical RAM space, there are overlaps. In other words, in a configuration 3 GB of RAM, there is no overlap with the ranges of memory required for some features of the system. However, between 3 and 4 GB system memory tries to occupy space that is already assigned to these functions. For example, the allocation of PCI Express RAM occurs at a place about 3.5 GB of RAM and requires 256 MB of RAM. Thus, the virtual space between 3.75 GB of RAM and 3.5 GB of RAM is occupied by the PCI Express data. In a system with 3 GB of RAM, so nothing is wasted because the space required by PCI Express memory is always between 3.5 and 3.75 GB and installed system RAM does not violate this space. The net result is that at least 3 GB of RAM must be fully accessible, so that installing 4 GB of RAM, ~ 700 MB of RAM is bunk critical system functions, making it not addressable by the system. »

  • How to activate the Internet connection on Windows Server 2003 is installed in the virtual machine in VMware Workstation 8?

    I have Windows Server 2003 is installed on a virtual machine in VMware Workstation 8. I need it to learn and practice the use of the Active Directory. I've also set up 3 Windows XP workstations connect to it, which means that they can communicate with Server 2003. What is lacking is the Internet connection on all of them. When I run ping 8.8.8.8 in one of these virtual machines, I get, 'Destination host unreachable.'

    I'm not sure, what if the problem comes from the settings in Windows or the settings of the virtual machine.

    Can someone help me?

    Thank you, guys. I was finally able to put in place. It was quite an ordeal to deal with IP addresses and virtual networks. Here's how I did (in the screenshots) in case someone else needs it.

    (I also confess that it is perhaps one of the ways to implement. Maybe there is an easier way to do it with DHCP...)

    1. in your computer where is installed VMware Workstation 8 begin the "Virtual Network Editor." It is located in the folder of installation of VMware Workstation. And implement the network following (VMnet2 in my case):

    2 then in VMware Workstation itself in the virtual machine when Windows Server 2003 is installed set up two network as connections:

    This one is for external access to the Internet:

    And this one for intranet communications AD:

    3. then in the machine virtual de Windows Server 2003 set up what follows for two network adapters:

    For Internet access:

    Then, you need allow this connection to share:

    And then for the ad access to workstations (ensure that the static IP address is in the range specified in the virtual network over VMnet2 network editor). I've also set up DNS to 127.0.0.1 because I installed on this Windows 2003 DNS server:

    4. from the Windows 2003 VM try ping 8.8.8.8. It should work now.

    5. go to each workstation, in my case, Windows XP, each in its own virtual machine and set up the network in the VMware Workstation as follows:

    6. then in the virtual machine, configure the network connection for Windows XP workstation. Don't forget to assign a new static IP address for each workstation, which not coinside with IP of the domain (this IP address must come from the range specified in the virtual network over VMnet2 network editor):

    7. try first ping the domain, in my case ping 192.168.237.128. And then Internet, ping 8.8.8.8. The two should work!

    Continue with steps [5-7].

I want to create a 2 cluster nodes, but when I try the installation I get an error message not Quorum shared disk was found, and a second NETWORK adapter is required (although I have 2 network cards installed on the virtual machine).

    I tried to use the vmkfstools to create a floppy disk, but when I turn on the virtual computer, I get an error that I have not used the thick option (I entered this command, vmkfstools thickness - a free - 1 c d G vmfs/volumes/datastore2/CLRDISK/CLR.vmdk, but it didn't work).

    Can someone explain please how to do step by step to someone who knows nothing about Linux or vmware CLI commands commands?

    PLEASE IF ANYONE CAN HELP ME IT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANKS TO YOU ALL.

    Take a look at http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1004617. This KB links to documentation MSCS he for different versions of ESX. I think the last doc on 4.0 U1 should work for 4.1 as well.

    Hi Hari,

    All references I can find on the Microsoft site indicate that only the Enterprise and Datacenter editions of Windows Server 2003 support hot-memory add.  Hot-add memory support in Windows Serverfor example.

    But... I see that our own Guest OS compatibility Guide says that the Standard Edition is supported too.  Is that where you were looking for?  As far as I know, the document looks incorrect...

My question, which OS works better on top of the other, the performance and stability wise? Should I run VMware Server 2.0 on Ubuntu and virtualize Windows Server 2003, or vice versa?

    Here's my hardware configuration. Remember, I use Ubuntu with 3 drives of 2 TB and 3 750 GB drives, software RAID5. Records of 2 to 3, will be attached to a Rosewill RC-218 SATA II controller.

    If you want to either run a single Ubuntu VM on a host of 2003 or run a single VM 2003 on an Ubuntu host?

    Then I'd clearly vote for host of 2003 for the following reasons:

    -installation of VMserver 2 on 2003 is trivial, while it is an adventure on current Linux

    -Host Windows can be configured to return all the virtual RAM inside the actual RAM that is not possible on Linux hosts - which means that a host of 2003 will work better for a single virtual machine

    -2003 is very stable so that a host Linux VMserver 2 tends to leaking memory after long uptimes

    -on a host of 2003, you can easily use the ViClient to manage the virtual machines

    Windows Server 2003 32-bit R2 enables PAE by default ("physical address Extension") mode for addressing memory above the 4 GB limit.  National Instruments supports this operating system, it does not address memory above the 4 GB limit by using EAP setting and many pilots OR will fail to load if this setting is enabled.  (Note that your computer may intuitively put some of your memory above the 4 GB limit, even if you only have 4 GB of RAM).

    On Windows Server 2003, you can disable the EAP or prevent Windows to use addresses beyond 4 GB, which allows loading the drivers EITHER.  Please see KB 54D9I6M6: OR software failure when PAE (physical address Extension) is activated on Windows operat... for more information.

  • Problems installing Windows Server 2003 on a T61

    Hello:

    I had installed Windows Server 2008 on a T61 and it was an installation smoothly with minor hickups.

    But some of the other required packages Windows 2003 Server (they do not support Server 2008 yet!). So I started to install Windows Server 2003 and that's where I found a lot of questions:

    1. I had to change the SATA in compatibility mode (Windows installation has complained that no hard drive found).

    2. I installed Windows Server 2003.

    3. I can't get the wireless network adapter to work. I tried the drivers for Windows 2000/XP on the Lenovo site, but the system does not recognize the card.

    4. the Device Manager lists the devices unrecognizable following three:

    Network controller (must be the wireless card. Properties/Details says "PCI VEN_8086 & DEV... »)

    Controller memory PCI (properties/details says "PCI VEN_8086 & DEV... »)

    Unknown device (properties/details says "ACPI\ATM1200\4 & 374CCB25 & 0")

    5. when I insert a USB key, it is recognized and a new disk is assigned. However, I have an external USB drive and when I plug that in, the system does not recognize the drive.

    Help, please.

  • Dell Power edge 2850 will not let me install windows server 2003

    Hello

    I tried to install windows server 2003 on a few servers, I received a few weeks back.  The RAID put a system in place and turned but when it tries to install WS he says that there are no hard drives.

    I tried to download "server Dell Power Edge update through bootable media / ISO ' but there is no download for a 2850.

    Also I tried to download this "Dell systems build and Update Utility" but most of the time it stops and says failed download...

    Hello

    This link is the user's guide.

    And another one

    I bought a 2950 on Ebay the month last but never had the intention on the installation of a Windows operating system, but I downloaded the ISO of DVD here file and installed without any problem they send you a key to save the operating system. I updated the bios after this and no problem. You never said how many hard drives you have, but make sure that you have two or more. So far, I've installed VMWare ESXi which was supported on 2950 but I settled with XenServer 6.5.0 and I 2003 server running as a virtual machine which works very well.

    I have a Dell XPS workstation I have recently reinstalled Windows 7 on it but I had only one drive is connected and the operating system could not see all of the hard drives. After that a second device and do not use raid on this machine, I was able to install Windows. I tried the ISO Live Dell 2850 version but it is not a. Which includes diagnostic tools. When you by a Dell there pre installed in a hidden partition on the disk utility, you can run, but it really isn't anything I know install that. Usually the F12 key will give you a list of items to boot from and if she isn't here the disk, it cannot run. The diagnostic utility that is.
