Virtual Center crashes regularly...
Hi guys,.
Here's my problem. . Every hour or two Virtual Center stops responding for at least a minute of usually two. If you check execution of the Task Manager on the server of VC SQLservice consumes 50% of the CPU. I am running a local instance of SQL for the VC. I run virtual Center on a server that also ran Veeam Backup server at a time. The server is running anything else. I have no idea on what SQL is trying to do during this period. I used SQL studio to check if there is some sort of work of compression running against the DB or something but I don't see anything there.
Someone at - it ideas? Is it possible to move the local database to the virtual center to a dedicated SQL server without having to reinstall?
Yes it's possible, detach from the db and re - join your dedicated sql server.
Once you do this, change your DSN (ODBC connections) to point to the new sql server
When was the last time that you have backed up your database (commit transaction logs)

Media Center crashes since update k2502898 has been cancelled during an automatic update
Media Center crashes since update k2502898 has been cancelled during an automatic update. The cancellation took place on 03/10/2011. Since that time MC opens, then when I click on TV > Live it hangs or does not detect the tuner. Other times it opens, but after a few minutes I can't change channels or use Rarely MC. It works OK.
I tried to find an answer in the forums but nothing. One day I came across a hotfix package for KB2502898 file 1.0.0.0 version. After installing MC works sometimes. When it does not work I have to install this hotfix package and restart the PC each time until finally it works.Since March, 2011, there is also a problem with the GUIDE. Its download is interrupted (probably because MC broke down). Manual download does not work. Even when MC works (after downloading the hotfix package), the guide does not download.My PC is regularly updated and protected.The version of Windows XP Media Center Ed 2005 is 5.1.2715.3011 (xpsp (wmbla). 061009-1511) Update Rollup 2 with microsoft.NET Framework1.1My system is Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition Version 2002 Service Pack 3 - Reg nr 76487-0EM-011903-00824Could you please help me solve this problem.Thank you.Does that help?

How adding script. VMX to store data (NFS) to the virtual Center
Hi guys,.
I hope that someone much better understand the scripting languages I know a simple way to do this?
Basically, here's the scenario...
We use data warehouses NFS running on Netapp file servers to accommodate all our virtual machines. Normally this works very well, but we had a few incidents recently with the spin that force us to move to our synchronous backups. Basically how it works is that each data store, say for example Datastore1 works normally on Filer1. This data store is regularly "synchronous" on Filer2. This snapmirror is a copy of the data store readonly. If we have a problem with Filer1, it is possible to reconfigure Filer2 to make writable snapmirror backup, effectively allowing us to see the virtual machine.
Currently, in this case, in order to get the back of the virtual machine, to remove all the vm to Virtual Center inventory, then add the synchronous data store to all guests in Virtual Center, then browse the data store and manually add back all the vm individually by the usual right-click right/add to the inventory on each virtual machine.
As I say we have recently had a problem and had to call it for the storages of 10 data housing almost 250 vm was therefore, as you can imagine quite a slow intensive task and work!
What I tried to work, that's how I could this power CLI script? I saw LuCD excellent research Add .vmx script and looks a lot like what I would like to but can't work out how to change it for my purposes.
What id' ideally like to go would be a script that I can specify an instance of Virtual Center, store data and Cluster as variables (say vcname$ = "ukvir0001", cluster$ = $ 'Datacentre1' and dsname = "datastore1") and then the script read the data store and add no matter what .vmx, it finds in the specified Cluster.
I read with interest the new feature in PowerCLI4 data store provider and which resembles something that can provide an easy way to do it I can't work out how!
Any help would be much appreciated as I have the daunting task of having to move back almost 250 vm to Filer1 now that give it has been fixed and do not have the luxury of a maintenance window several hours to do it manually!
Thank you very much
Sean.
After a few PMs between Sean and myself, we arrived with a working version.
Note that this latest version of the script has been tested in a vSphere against an ESXi v4 server environment.

Hello
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. As this feature has been added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there are still some problems.
You will have to perhaps restart Firefox for it to take effect, so save any work first (e.g. you compose mail, documents online that you are editing, etc.).
Then perform the following steps:
- Open the Firefox Options (Preferences on Mac or Linux) as follows:
- In Firefox 29,0 and above, click on the menu button
then select Options Preferences on Mac or Linux, or Windows.
- In 28.0 Firefox and earlier versions, click on the Firefox orange upper-left button, then select the 'Options' button or, if there is no button up Firefox, go to tools > Options.
- In Firefox 29,0 and above, click on the menu button
- In the window of Firefox Options (or preferences), click on the Advanced tab, and then select general.
- You will find in the list of parameters, the checkbox use hardware acceleration when available . Clear this check box.
- Now restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
In addition, please check the updates for your graphics driver by following the steps in the following knowledge base articles:

Tecra M3 crashes regularly with a sound strange fan
Hello!
I'm new running (dec ' 05) Tecra M3 with Win XP SP2 and all the patches applied. The problem is that it crashes regularly.
The symptoms are the following: display image suddenly freezes, machine responds more fully while begins to make the nosises of the "jet-engine-like", i.e. to Monte and down. The only way out of the machine is reset. Today I have updated the BIOS 1.40 (initially he 1.30). And already had two hangings. :-(
Any ideas what could be the reason?
Thank you!
AlexeyHi Alexey
the hangings and the noise of the fan can be connected.
If a fact request the sponsor system to stop it might happen in some sort of loop that will make the CPU is enmeshed in this loop and the really hard work. In this case, it also generates a lot of heat, and so the fan will kick and work extra hard to cool the CPU.So what does this mean for you? Well, first of all don't bother on the fan. He will do his job well.
On the contrary, trying to figure out if there is a single application or a process that is running when this happens. Try things out of the band down by eliminating certain processes and see if the situation improves.
Think if you have installed additional memory. If so, remove it and try working with the machine for a day or two.
Hope to have helped you

Windows Media Center crashes on Vista when you try to play Netflix
I can connect to Netflix and discover my queue and all the rest. I can view the details of the episodes and so forth, but when I click on 'Play', Windows Media Center crashes and restarts itself - every time.
There are other problems in Windows Media Center. Sometimes it freezes during the display of other media, such as Internet TV. I had my computer more than a year, and this is the first time I tried to use Windows Media Center, so I don't know if it worked before.
I tried to find an update for it, but all that I've tried say that it applies to my system. (I always install the automatic updates). I also ran the Fix It program, which says it completed, but which did not help.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Media Center crashes when starting a movie from netflix
I have seen this problem with many X 64 now users of systems. Netflix in windows media center crashes when you click on the beginning of the game film. Seems to be a X 64 system problem. All the patches yet? I saw a large number of entries of "try this" but I haven't seen any which have resulted in a solution,
Thanks for any help on what I would use netflix inside the WMC if possible.Hi all
It is a known problem with Netflix in Windows Media Center. It is caused by the presence of a very long user agent string in Internet Explorer. For more information about the agent user channels, see the following MSDN article. There is currently no supported workaround by modifying manually the user agent string can cause problems of compatibility with some Web sites.

After the reboot, virtual center service does not start on its own. I don't face any problem while I start it manually. How to fix this?
Hello
To resolve this problem, add a dependency to the VirtualCenter service so that it starts only after the necessary services have started.
To create a service dependency:
Click Start > run, type services.msc and press ENTER.
Find all the services that vCenter Server requires. For example, SQLEXP_VIM, ADAM_VCMSDS or ADAM_VMwareVCMSDS.
Note: the Service names are different from SQL Express and the full SQL implementations. For example, the name of the SQL Express service is SQLEXP_VIM and in complete SQL implementations, it is MSSQLSERVER.
Open the properties of the service and note the name of the service. For example, MSSQL$ SQLEXP_VIM.
Click Start > run, type regedit, and then click OK. The window of the Registry Editor opens.
Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\vpxd.
Double-click the DependOnService key and add the Service name by using the name identified in step 4.
Close the Registry Editor window.
- In the Services window, open the properties of the service to the service identified in step 3.
- On the Dependencies tab, make sure that the VMware VirtualCenter service is registered as a function of the service.
- Repeat steps 3-9 for all services that requires VirtualCenter.
If you are running Windows 2008 you can set the VMware VirtualCenter Server service to automatic startup (delayed) following type:
Click Start > run, type services.msc, and then click OK.
Right-click on the VMware VirtualCenter Server service, and then click Properties.
Change the automatic startup type Automatic (delay).
