Virtual hardware changes while deploying a vApp

• Win98SE invited in WS v10.0.1; cannot upgrade virtual hardware

  I installed VMware WS v9.x v10.0.1 and, as with all the previous WS upgrades, I upgraded the virtual hardware to version 10.  With one exception, all that is.  My Win98SE guest does not accept the upgrade of virtual equipment of v9 to v10.  I have an error message: "this virtual machine does not have the latest version of VMWare Tools.  You must update the VMware Tools until you can upgrade the virtual machine.  "For more information about upgrading, see 'http://vmware.com/info?id=98'.  I am running WS on a Win8.1 Pro host.

  First of all, I did never had upgrade level of VMware Tools before upgrading the hardware.  I always updated the virtual material THEN upgraded VMware Tools.  In fact, I just did it for my Windows XP and Ubuntu Linux VMs, Win7.

  Secondly, it seems to be there anyway no new version of VMware Tools for Win98SE.  When I start the operating system, I get no automatic indication I had to upgrade.  When I go to the VM option in WS while the VM is running I only get the option "Reinstall VMware Tools".  And when I set the winPre2k.iso on the virtual CD and start the installation manually I get only the options to repair/uninstall/reinstall.  Relocation of the VMware Tools has the same original problem.

  I remember something vaguely similar in the past where VMware has released an upgrade which was problematic because they did not provide a new VMware Tools for Windows Pre2k operating systems and has not bothered to even update the version number in the file winPre2k.iso so that it works correctly with the new virtual hardware.  I'm guessing that something like this can happen again.  Either that or there is some kind of a bug.  I am remiss to contact VMware directly to report a bug through their support mechanisms; the last time I did it turned into a long 6 + months fiasco loaded many emails back to California and the India Conference calls, allowing the remote control of my computer, etc.

  When I tried to create a new VM Win98SE, WS chose the 10 hardware version that tells me Win98SE is supposed to work on this latest version of virtual equipment.

  So, let's recap: WS v10.x wants the latest tools installed in Win98SE VM prompt to update the virtual hardware to v10 but do not accept that there is NO new version of tools.  I have marked this message as a question in case someone can offer opportunities to a solution which I missed.  It's maddening to constantly through problems like this in a piece of software as professional and expensive.

  Sorry you have a question however...

  : 1 Windows 98 is more a BONE officially supported by VMware for VMware Workstation 10 (or Microsoft for that matter) even if it can be selected in the wizard.

  Fact 2: A given virtual hardware version can be selected does not mean all the features will be compatible with all operating systems or any OS.

  Fact 3: Products VMware, like many other manufactured goods, have questions that will have to be workaround at certain times.

  Then...  If it appears there is a question of trying to change the hardware compatibility through the user interface and then manually edit the .vmx config file to make the changes necessary and appropriate!

  If I were to create a Windows 98 VM by selecting "hardware compatibility:" Workstation 9.0 and 10.0 Workstation, while accepting all the default values, the only difference in the .vmx config file is virtualHW.version = '9' vs virtualHW.version = "10".  If a simple manual modification of the .vmx config file it will modernize to 10!

• WebCenter 12 c: is it allowed to do TDSB on the implementation stage and delivery while deployment servers or only on the staging and publishing to delivery?

  Hi guys,.

  I am currently working on Webcenter 12 c. Building models, definitions, etc., for deployment in the previous version (7.6 Fatwire), allowing us to make TDSB on staging and then to publish models, definitions, etc., to the delivery server. In this way the templates and meta-data were published story and when content authors used to publish content it would not ask to include metadata as well.

  Now we continue doing in the same direction or can we TDSB on intermediate servers and delivery while deployment? We will have problems of constraint violation unique assetid if we do it this way especially when that merges several branches and deployment?

  Kind regards

  Murali

  Yes, you can even export/import through TDSB (the link gives some basic information about it), but the question is whether it is advisable - usually there will be other changes in the environment of the staging, which are not related to the TDSB, then you want rather to publish all changes in the scene at a time.

• Virtual hardware switch to 4 (ESX 3.5) 09 (5.1 ESXi)?

  Hi guys

  Someone made a form of virtual hardware upgrade of virtual machines with version 4 to 9?

  Are there questions? I need to level 9 VM win2003, win2000 1 vm and 1 Net vm with windows, anyone know if there are any questions? Which is the process to do?

  Thanks and greetings

  Evening,

  Here's the process:

  1. stop the virtual machine

  2. the virtual machine snapshot

  3. upgrade of hardware

  4. start the virtual machine

  5 Verify the application functionality

  6 remove the snapshot

  If you have problems a rollback to snapshot will change the version back.  I know that 2003 be fine with that will improve others I did not personally to version 9.   Anyway with the steps above you should be ok with a little downtime.

  Thank you

• on the virtual hardware noob question, pls help

  I have a problem. I have a system with vmware not made by me, but now I have to take control of it and make backups of machines. I want to buy essentials and essentials of veeam vsphere.

  Today, I read this:

  Virtual hardware

  • Virtual machines with disks involved in the shared SCSI bus are not supported, because VMware doesn't support taking snapshots these virtual machines.

  • RDM virtual disks in physical mode, Independent disks disks connected via in-guest iSCSI initiator are not supported and are ignored automatically process.

  Where can I find this information? I mean where can I see in vsphere client if I am in this situation? Is there something one place where I can find clear if my system is in this situation? I had under Configuration, storage adapters, and it is written:

  Broadcom iSCSI adapter

  vmhba32 iSCSI

  This means that I'm doomed?

  Hello

  This information is on your VM configurations. If you need to choose your VM--> pass parameter to change. Then select your SCSI controller and verify if the virtual or physical mode is selected.

  

  . For RDM, just select a hard drive and check to see if you have a logic unit number instead of a vmdk. But if it's a vmdk you will not see the physical or virtual mode option.

  

  Kind regards

• View composer does not see the VM images parent after Virtual Hardware 7 upgraded?

  I upgraded to 4.0.1 view last month, then there are 2 weeks, we have upgraded to vSphere. After the upgrade, I upgraded to VMware tools of a VM parent, improved virtual hardware 7 and took a new snapshot. When I go to the view admin console I don't see the new snapshot, I made available in the form of default image. It works very well so that the virtual machine is stored virtual hardware version 4, but breaks after moving to 7.

  Did I miss a step? Anyone else seen this problem? I'm close to the opening of a case of pension on the issue.

  It is an option on an existing pool.  Just change the pool and go to either host or a cluster.  The box should be at the bottom of the page.

• SAS Logic Controller / update of the virtual hardware

  so I did experiments with virtual hardware, logic SAS SCSI Controller in the virtual machine and enhance network drivers.

  First it is just me, or is this a VERY intensive upgrade, you must install the NEW vmtools, then stop, then upgrade the hardware (this is why I have experimented with the realization of the upgrade, and then Tools, which works very well).  However, using even a NEW CD of Windows install (2003) and the floppy disk controller, the SAS drive is not recognized.  I can add it during the 'press F6 for new controller... ". "blah blah blah... but he said some people found hard drives, as well as change the controller, despite having installed drivers with the tools of the NEW virtual machine still cause the OS to blue screen, inaccessible device.

  So now the question arises, someone understood what driver to use for this?  They should be, but they do not seem to work, FTM

  SAS controller is also required for the Windows Clustering 2008 because the old LSI adapter will not work (lack of support for SCSI-3).

• virtual hardware 7, who is it?

  Hi, I use vmware on V3.5, sometimes, in the documentation, I see the virtual hardware 7? Can clarify you for me what is?

  This is the configuration that we have when we create a virtual machine?

  Concerning

  You will usually be upgrading it when the virtual computer is moved to a new version of

  the software host VMware (ESX, VMware Server, etc.). Version

  reflects the new capabilities in hardware that will see the virtual machine and in

  the VMX for the virtual machine, you will see the config.version settings and

  virtualHW.version change when you do this.

• Pavilion x 2: Windows product key Validation after hardware change (new SSD)

  I have a Pavilion laptop x 2 with a 64 GB SSD.  It came with Windows 8.1 but he now works Windows 10 - of course.  I decided to upgrade the 256 GB SSD.  I bought the appropriate module (a Sandisk).  I recently contacted Windows support to inquire about the procedure to validate the OS once I did the material exchange.  I wasn't sure how it would work since my x 2 Pavilion has incorporated into BIOS product key.  Microsoft told me that because I was going to do a hardware change I would need a new product key (in other words my laptop current product key would be 'blocked').  I was able to recover the product key of my Pavilion x 2 (OEM and installed keys - what is the difference?).

  Does anyone have experience in this field?  Once I have replace the SSD and perform a clean install Windows 10, will be the key to product embedded BIOS validate operating system or it will reject?  Since I'm NOT buying a HP SSD (with preloaded operating system) and that my x 2 Pavilion is now long out of warranty?  I really have to pay over a hundred dollars for a new Windows operating system license?

  Thanks in advance for any advice/help.

  Francis

  Parameters indicate that I have a digital right so with a bit of luck when I change the SSD and install Windows 10, the machine must validate without a qualm.  I tried to see if I could link my Validation of my Microsoft account but I did not have this option on my settings (although in the past when I re-install Windows 10, link validation of my Microsoft account operating system so I guess it works.)  Also, I guess I have the anniversary edition from my machine updated automatically.

  If all else fails, I'll see how it goes after the SSD upgrade and if I have to deal with Microsoft.  I also agree with you that change the SSD (essentially the ' drive') is NOT a significant change in equipment and shall not impose a new product key, but then, nothing surprises me more.

  Your tips were helpful and I thank you.

• audio will not play error message says it cannot have been updated or hardware changes have not been detected. I did no hardware changes

  audio will not play error message says it cannot have been updated or hardware changes have not been detected. I did no hardware changes

  Hello ShawnKohl,

  We can also try to go back to a time where he worked with system restore.

  Once this has been done, check the hat of Windows updates are available and hide the audio driver updates that are available.

  System Restore:

  Windows XP - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306084

  Windows Vista/7 - http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/products/features/system-restore

  Updates of masking:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/902992

  Please note that in addition to that, the advice of the previous poster remains true: we want to get the latest audio driver on the system of the manufacturer.

  Best regards

• Request an activation code for Windows due to hardware changes, but nothing has changed. What is going on?

  My computer is request an activation code for Windows due to hardware changes but nothing has changed.  What is going on?  This morning firefox did not and went into the Task Manager to see which processes were underway, then he closed the Explorer.  I think I clicked on it by mistake.  Then turn on now that I get this message.

  Go ahead and try to activate it? (copy is authentic, came on the computer already installed)

  Hi JaneMcDonald,

  Yes, you can go ahead and activate Windows XP, as it could be a possibility that the software license file may have been changed due to some changes.

• I can't activate my windows key after hardware change

  Due to the failure of the material, I had to Exchange my card motherboard and CPU.  Now, I can't get my windows key 7 to activate.  When I try to activate online I get error 0x80072efe code.  When I try the phone option automated I get the error code 0 x 0000048.  I tried phone support, but does not include support staff.

  I'd love to.  But no country option and no phone number are displayed. Just error 0 x 0000048, a non-specific error code. I drag the menu asking countries, but no option is available.

  Your report MGADiag indicates that Windows spotted the hardware changes - and he will need to phone Activation.
   
  If you let us know where you are, we can look at the number for you :)
  (although if you can not see the codes, it is possible will do much good--but the operator may be able to help)

Please help me, your answer will be...

  Hi Javedpasha,

  1. when exactly you receive this message? Are you facing problems using USB devices?

  2. what Fixit did you run?

  3. What is the brand and model of your computer?

  4. What is the full error message that you receive?

  5. have you made a recent software or hardware changes to the system?

  This error occurs generally when the audio / sound does not work.

  Method 1:

  You can check the manufacturer's Web site and try to install the latest version of the drivers for the chipset, sound, network card and the display.

  For more information, see the article:

  Updated a hardware driver that is not working properly

  Method 2:

  You can also try to run the hardware and devices Troubleshooter and check if it helps:

  Open the hardware and devices Troubleshooter

  Disconnect external devices attached to the computer (except the keyboard and mouse) and check if it helps.
