vCenter 4 and Linux guest customization

VCenter 4 does support Linux Guest customization?

I can only find documentation for Virtual Center, and when you go to the download page of vSphere and search components of VMware's Open-Source, I can not find them

Anyone done this?

I'm looking to clone a server SUES 9

See you soon

Mike

Yes, vCenter 4 supports customization of Linux comments. You don't need additional software, just the VMware tools.

Take a look at 'Basic System Administration'.

vSMP and Linux guests in practice

Hello
Recently, we were faced with problems of timing on RHEL. One of the proposed solutions was to reduce the number of vCPU for the virtual machine.
I know that we should always try to keep as little vCPUs per VM as it is possible, but some virtual machines are supposed to be 4 or even 8 processors.
My question is about the usability of Linux vSMP in daily work. Linux comments generates more support than Windows?
Best regards
Martin

The main reason why use as party least vCPU is due to the fact that symmetric symmetric is used. That affects not only VMware, this is a general problem of virtualization as physical cores are shared.

Symmetric symmetrical guest OS must wait vCPU all is available and synchronized to plan the work for each other. Meanwhile busy carrots are not available for all other tasks. So if you give as much vCPU is as you have physical cores, you leave not invited re-export of processing power and army as long as this particular guest is on his vCPU. Which is never the case on bare metal, the BONE is still owner of all hearts.

On Linux, it is a problem with older kernels which generate up to 1000 interupts to second and additional 1000 per (v) CPU. Using other nuclei or do not use the timer of the PIT (which generates these interupts to get the number of ticks).

Windows uses different types of hardware clocks and they can change by installing the software (such as Quicktime).

upgrade virtual hardware level 7 and linux guests

Greetings,
I read a lot about problems with DNS records when upgrading from Windows clients hardware 7 but on Linux?
I would like to know if anyone has experienced a problem with hardware 7 and Red Hat EL 5.x
You can use Update Manager to upgrade the VMWare RHEL tools and equipment.
Thanks in advance
Tony

We have recently updated the VM hardware and vmware tools on a lot of RHEL 5 x 64 and CentOS 5.x x 86 & x 64 VMs. Everything was ok. A sequence was as follows:

1. Update vmware tools script & tar.gz

2. turn off the virtual machine

3. switch to virtual machine hardware

4. turn on

Cannot change the entry door of the Linux guest OS by the perl script customization

Default gateway Linux can be changed using script (modified from vmclone.pl) below.

Someone at - it gives help on this?

You get errors? I also recommend to check the customer that has been deployed, for linux guests, there is a log file of the customization specification and I want to say its somewhere in/var/log/vmware, but I don't remember the exact name of the file. You can see what happened in and if there is no error. Also, I assume that you have looked at the list of taken guestOSes supported for customization of comments?

Secondary disk between Linux and Windows guests share

Hi guys,.
I have a requirement to have a guest Windows and Linux comments share the same disk (formatted in NTFS) and the two systems need full access to the shared file system.
What I've read, it is possible in some cases, such as the Windows Server cluster.
Has anyone tried this with Linux and Windows?

Thank you

What I've read, it is possible in some cases, such as the Windows Server cluster.

Windows uses a cluster without sharing, wherever a single node has access on the drive shared at the same time. Microsoft does not support concurrent access to an NTFS file system, with the exception of Hyper-V.

How to remove a cpu from a linux guest

Hello
I have a Linux guest (Centos 5.5 x 64) that has been set with 2 cpu. Now I would like to change to 1 CPU only, because there is no more need of 2 processors.
It is necessary to work on the core, or simply turn off the vm, reconfigure it and restart it?
VMware Vsphere with ESXi 4.1.
Thank you
Bruno
Message modificato da BrunoCom

It is up to you. If this is a production server and a little delicate, I would go with a clone too.

On the other hand, to remove and on the errors of re - attach the second processor is not much.

First linux kernels or manually compiled and listening to those who was the (i386-i586) processor-specific and separate single CPU and SMP. This was because the first SMP kernels had some overhead and have been slower on single CPU machines.

But it really should be a few years. Hardly, I myself remember last time asked me on what kernel to install during installation on a linux.

vCenter Server and Manager on the same virtual machine and on the same host ESXi update that they manage

Hi all
I have a question to which I did not respond.
I have an ESXi 5 on Proliant DL380 G7 server host. I want to install vCenter Server and Manager Update on one of the Server 2008 R2 VM on the same host. I know it's possible, but my question is how Update manager will provide updates to the same ESXi host it will run on? The update is applied every time host must spend in maintenance mode and power off the virtual computer running on this subject which means he'll kill VM where vCenter Server and Update Manager is running and the update will fail right?
Is that possible at all or the VCS and UM such as a virtual computer operating point is updated to other guests if you have them or vMotion as VM to another host when you want to update the VCS and UM host is running?
Thanks in advance.

It will not work. You will need at least two hosts. This way you can vMotion the vCenter VM to another host. From there, you can use VUM. Otherwise, you will need to patch the host as a stand-alone host.

See below for patching a standalone host

http://communities.VMware.com/people/vmroyale/blog/2011/09/15/updating-ESXi-5--single-use-esxcli-how-to

Is it possible to run vCenter Server and AUVS in the same database?

Hello. My client has vCenter Server and VUM installed and running in the same database. Yes, the same database (not only same server database) and the same ODBC (ODBC VUM is 32-bit only).
My question is whether it is supported or not and I would like a source VMware information, not only "it works fine for me".
I can't find any definitive info on this VMware. Only something to wave in the installation and upgrade guides about or not to run in the same database ' ' (I guess they mean 'server') and it seems that the recommendation is to separate them for the 'large environments,' whatever that means.
The environment vSphere 4.1 is currently, and there are about 20 guests and 150 virtual machines.
If it is not supported, I guess the best way to go is to reinstall both from scratch?
Thanks in advance!
/ Anders

Yes, it is a supported configuration. Since VUM and vCenter using different tables, you can share the same DB

The database of the update manager that you use can be identical to the vCenter Server database. You can also use a
separate database, or you can use existing database clusters. For best results in a large scale environment, you
must use a dedicated Update Manager database that is located on one computer other than the
the vCenter Server system database.

PowerShell to execute the shell script in Linux guest

Is there a way of powershell to access a Linux VM in a domain environment and then run a Linux shell script to a guest Linux OS - for example to set the network settings of the virtual machine?
Thank you!

You can use the Invoke-VMScript cmdlet. It allows you to run a script bash inside the Linux guests supported.

There is also the Set-VMGuestNetworkInterface cmdlet to configure NETWORK card. It is based in fact on the same technique as the Invoke-VMScript cmdlet, but PowerCLI Dev team provided the bash script to you.

VMPlayer newbie - switch back and forth between the host and the guest operating system

I am newbie to VMPlayer. I just installed VMPlayer 3.0.0 build-203739 on Red Hat Linux 5 (host). Then I created a VM comments Kubuntu (8.10). So far so good. In the VMPlayer window, I selected 'play Virtual Machine '. After this, the host operating system controls disappeared and I could see a taskbar on the top of my screen and I could also see Kubuntu startup (in an area of the small window in the center of the screen). The problem I'm running is that I'm not able to navigate outside of this area of the small window. I'm not even able to click/Select the taskbar of VMPlayer top of the screen. The mouse movement is limited to the area of the small window. How to and fro my host and the guest operating system? Is there a key combination? I finally had to stop my VM guest to return to the control of my host system. I guess it's a problem quite newbie that I am running. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, welcome to the forum

Host Windows to switch between comments and the OS (when you are in the guest operating system), you must use ctrl + alt.

According to this link , it's the same thing in Linux host too.

>Default VMware Player uses key combination Ctrl + Alt to jump out of the guest. Then CTRLAltdel is accessible via theAltInsert command. If you find this annoying, you can change the jump shortcut to CtrlAltshift by adding the following lines to your ~/.vmware/preferences:

> pref.hotkey.shift = "true".

> pref.hotkey.control = "true".

> pref.hotkey.alt = "true".

After your installation OS in the virtual machine, install "VMware Tools" on it so you will get better performance and some improvements (like moving your mouse out of guest to your host operating system operating system and Vice Versa, or be able to copy beyond host/guest, better resolution on reviews and...)

I hope it helps a bit.

VMwareTools, RH Linux guests, all in runlevel 3

Installation and configuration, according to the instructions of VMware in RH Linux guests, some initial VMware Tools (on an ESX 3.5.0 Server Update 4) is well done, and there is no problem. Systems are energised without problems, VMwareTools installed later, and then they remain at level 3 for all their functional work.
How can I still manage the things for VMwareTools VMs with GUI VMwareTools are able to do? For example, how to adjust the options in a prompt whether if the VM and VMwareTools will use VMwareTool features or NTP to sync'ing time? Also, where is the documentation to explain all this to me?
Thank you very much in advance for the helpful answers!

Have a look here: http://sanbarrow.com/vmx.html . You can set some parameters via the user interface, such as time and you will find the .vmx file settings correspondent we (tools.synctime = "true" for timesynchronisation with the host country). But don't overestimate what you can do through the UI.

What you can do via the command-line comments shrinks virtual disks. To do that you need call a command console ESX or Storage vMotion.

VMWare Virtual Center 2.5 update 3 management ESX v3.5 Update 4 and 5 guests

I'm doing an audit of versions of VMWare and it seems that our cluster hosts are running a later update version as the virtual center server. Virtual Center 2.5 update 3 management ESX v3.5 Update 4 and 5 guests.
Does anyone know if this causes problems. This has been the case since before I started and there seems to be no negative effect I see.
Don't want to update virtual center update 5 as we plan to upgrade to vSphere, shortly.

you are in a supported configuration, so you should be fine

However, with more agents on new hosts, you can see some are disconnects/no response errors for your hosts in vCenter. In general, I would like to have my instance of vCenter to or superior to the latest version of ESX.

Dual-boot Windows and Linux, but Linux has calendar, TB 31.0

I'm using Linux Mint and Windows 7 dual-boot. I have TB 31.0 installed on each operating system. TB Linux has a capacity of calendar; in Windows, there is nothing (by nothing, I mean no calendars - I can't see their properties, for example, access somehow).

I should add that Windows and Linux TB programs share the same profile folder (located on a separate partition), therefore, all of the same modules, passwords, etc.

The error console records the following:

Timestamp: 14/08/2014-18:41:33
Error: Components.classes['@ [cid] is undefined
Source file: resource://calendar/modules/calUtils.jsm-> file:///P:/PortableApps/ThunderbirdPortable/Data/profile/extensions/%7Be2fda1a4-762b-4020-b5ad-a41df1933103%7D/calendar-js/calUtils.js
Online: 17

There are a variety of flow on the errors related to this.

My apologies for posting this in this way; I intend to submit this via the crashreporter, but I can't get the program crash with this error earlier.

An answer to my own question: it turns out that, while sharing a profile works quite well for most of the cases, with lightning, he does not, like the extension has different versions of Linux and Windows. The problem is solved very simply: by not using is not the same profile for each version.

Glad to see that no one takes on this one (except me, of course).

Satellite A110-180 - update of the Bios for Windows 7 and Linux

Hello

I want to change the following settings in my bios on my laptop satellite A110-180
* AHCI for SATA
Disable the IDE

But none of these options.
So I thought that maybe I should update my bios.
I found the download page, but there are 2 options: Windows Vista or NO vista, but I want to dual boot windows 7 and linux.

Which one should I download, or is there another option to change the settings?

Thank you!
Bart

Hello

Satellite A110 does not support these options (SATA AHCI).
The update of the BIOS will not help you!

Linux is not supported and therefore, you will not find any special BIOS for Linux OS!

The two BIOS updates are for Win Vista or OS independent.
Therefore, if you use other than Vista OS then you should throw the update of the independent BIOS to the BONE!

But as mentioned above; both options will not appear after the BIOS update!

Different features of Firefox Windows and Linux.

When I want to navigate to another site, and type the new address on the address of the existing page, that with one click on the version of Windows address nicely takes focus and brands all of the text and overwrite is easy, while with the Linux version, I need to score and remove the existing address to crush. I feel really bad at ease during my current position very long address.

Windows version is XP and Linux Ubuntu 11.04.
Same behavior with Firefox 3 and Firefox 4.

You must double-click Linux - Firefox to select the full URL, but that can be changed.

Type of topic: config in the URL bar and press ENTER.

If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access this page.
Pref. two theses affect this action.

browser.urlbar.clickSelectsAll - true on Windows, false on Linux

browser.urlbar.doubleClickSelectsAll - fake Windows, true on Linux

Double-click each of these preferences to switch to the opposite value, and then restart Firefox.
