virtual machine resets the time when restarting

• No network on the virtual machine after the use of converter

  I was running a basic vm (WinXP) on an esxi4.1 host running short of disk space.

  So I ran the vCenter Converter Standalone client to copy the original VM on a new - the only thing that I changed the size of the disc thin provisioned avaiable.   The copy/convert seemed to work your.

  I started in the new virtual machine, and it came exactly as the old one (with the largest disk).

  ... but the network on the works of more than vm.

  I can still use vSphere to connect to the esxi server and bring up the VM console (which tells me that the network the server works very well).  When I look at the configuration of the virtual machine, it looks exactly like the old (complete with a network powered).   But on the virtual machine, I can't even ping the router, much less get to the dhcp server.

  I even went so far as to stop the virtual machine, remove the network card, restart the virtual machine (if the network has been removed from the virtual machine), stop the virtual machine again, add a NEW network adapter.

  Still the problem remains.  The virtual machine has a network card - but has no network.

  A few thoughts:

  You use a managed physical switch? If so, check if the MAC address of the VM is seen on one of the uplink ports.

  The network management and the virtual machine using the same IP subnet? You could probably try (if possible) is to create an another vSwitch and attach the XP VM to it to see if there is a problem with the virtual machine and the management on the same vSwitch network.

• Let me know scenarios when different virtual machines with the same UUID are created in VMware Hypervisors?

  Let me know scenarios when different virtual machines with the same UUID created in VMware Hypervisors, aside from editing the .vmx file?

  The only other way I've seen is when you manually copy the virtual machine to another location on the data store (or another data store) and then when turn on/off the virtual machine, select I moved, rather that I copied it (the default option).  This will keep the same UUID.

• A virtual machine at the same time...? Which means that for Vmware replication

  Hi guys

  I read the Vmware 5.5 replication, and it says what I do not understand.

  I was reading the recovery process and he said:

  You can recover a virtual machine at the same time on the site replicated on the incoming replication tab

  what it means?

  I restore a VM and I have to wait until he said recovered to start the recovery process or simply means that a single virtual computer at a time and no group of the virtual machine can be recovered I can begin the process of recovery in 3 VMs at the same time, but I have to go one

  Thanks a lot guys

  Hello

  The second. You can begin the process of recovery for each virtual computer and they can go in parallel. However, there is no option to select more than one replication and begin the process of recovery in a single step.

  Kind regards

• Will the virtual machines in the space are automatically deleted when the protected group are removed

  Hi friends,

  Will the virtual machines in the space are automatically deleted when the protected group are removed?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  When you choose to delete the Protection Group, first virtual machines are unprotected and placeholders are deleted.

• PowerCLI to deploy virtual machines at the same time

  Can I deploy multiple VMs usng PowerCLI, but they spread out in the order and with an error.  It seems almost easier to deploy them manually so that they are created at the same time and not one after the other.  I also want the static IP but don't know how.

  For now, I use a card file customization that indicates static IP and guest for this.  But he never does, he deploys the vms system then throws an error stating VC ' a specified parameter was not correct.  nicsettings: adatpter:ip. "I want to increment IP addresses on virtual computers deploy.

• Non supported configuration of virtual machines for the fault tolerance. The operation is not supported on the object. When activating FT

  Hello

  I try to activate FT on a virtual machine that AFAIK ticked all the boxes for FT but I get this message when activating it. No clue as to what might happen or where to connect for extended information? This error message is too generic...

  Thanks in advance mates.

• PowerCLI script to migrate virtual machines to the new vCenter environment

  Hello world

  in the next few weeks, we need about migrate 700 VMs (Windows/Linux) server to a new environment (new vCenter, new hosts, but VMs will remain on same data warehouses). VMs will be migrated not in one batch, but rather from time to time (which, however, can understand the need to migrate some 10s of virtual machines at the same time).

  Cluster names and folder structure will be identical to the old and the new vCenters. As host in the new vCenter names differ from those in the old vCenter, thought to provide a table of 'translation', which tells the script to save a given VM on host B (new vCenter) when having been registered in order to host a (old vCenter) and so on.

  I thought writing a PowerCLI script which, broadly speaking, can accomplish the following steps:

  • Connect to vCenterOld and vCenterNew
  • Correspondence table of host to read from a file (see step "register VM vCenterNew below)

  Then, in a loop:

  • Ask VM name
  • Get the settings of the virtual machine: Datastore/path, network/Portgroup, HA restart priority, host, folder, note
  • View the parameters and the VM name and request confirmation migrate the virtual machine
  • Turn off VM (closed OS gracefully, but force power off if power status is still not equal 'off' after a time given)
  • To unsubscribe from VM vCenterOld (removal of inventory)
  • Registry of the VM to the data store vCenterNew (assumptions: same folder as vCenterOld, host names are different, but for each source in vCenterOld host a host of destination in vCenterNew for you join the virtual machine to can be provided, that is, CSV)
  • The value of VM portgroup (same name as in vCenterOld)
  • Set VM HA restart priority
  • PowerON VM
  • Wait / check the VM (for example, ping) connectivity / continue immediately if the virtual machine is accessible or after a certain time if the virtual machine is still inaccessible
  • Confirm that the virtual machine has been migrated successfully, OR ask the user to check the connectivity of the virtual machine

  Now to my questions:

  • Is anyone know about an existing script that does something similar or contains parts that can be useful to compile a script like this?
  • How can vCenter two connections at the same time been managed within a PowerCLI script - or doesn't work at all and a connect/disconnect to/from the two vCenters must be completed for each virtual computer?

  Many thanks for any help.

  The following seems to work for me

  $vm = Get-VM -Name MyVM$nic = Get-NetworkAdapter -VM $vm $vdPG = $nic | select -ExpandProperty NetworkName
  
  Get-VDPortgroup -Name $vdPG
  

• Shared behavior of the virtual machine on the host system shutdown

  Shared behavior of the virtual machine on the host system shutdown

  Greetings,

  I installed WIn7 - 64 bit host system, WS8 and there seems to be a very nice and high quality configuration. I am very happy.

  There is a shared VM and it's a Setup 64-bit Ubuntu 10.04 Server functioning as a base configuration LAMP for some basic web applications, etc..

  I was unable to find the settings to control the behavior of the VM shared with the system that hosts stop. When I stop the host system, I believe that the common VM is off tension or stop gracefully, I don't know who. What I like best is for the shared VM will not apply instead. The reason is that starting the virtual machine is a bit complicated and requires manual intervention. Whereas, if it is stopped since a State suspended without manual intervention is necessary.

  I found that if there is a loss of power, I can hibernate the host system in time before my battery runs out. Resuming the host hibernate system works correctly and the VM shared within WS8 is back to its previous functional State.

  It would be nice and helpful being able to stop or restart the host system and know that the shared virtual machine has been automatically suspended. So now I have to log on to the user account from the host system and open WS8 and manually suspend the virtual machine before you stop or restart the host system.

  Is there a way to have the shared VM automatically suspended when the host system is stop?

  Thank you for your time and attention.

  You can configure the stop action by editing the following file:

  %ProgramData%\VMware\hostd\vmAutoStart.XML

  If you want to configure the action stop for all virtual machines, find the section of under the section. Change it on hold

  If you want to change the action stop for only this one machine virtual, you must first configure this shared VM to be started automatically (in WS, right-click on the item 'VMs shared' in the library, select "manage computers virtual auto-start '). After doing this, manually change the vmAutoStart.xml. Find the entry for the virtual machine in the section (if you have more than one computer configured to autostart virtual, it will take some more digging to understand what VM to change). Change the entry for this virtual machine to hang.

  Save the file. Reboot the host (not auto-start power actions are only made when the host is restarted). Now when stop you the host, WS should suspend the VM (s)

  As always, manually edit the configuration files is not considered supported its use. Save the file before you edit. Adjust at your own risk.

• Tagged management VLAN and the virtual machines on the same VLAN

  I'm faced with a problem related to our Brocade switches newly acquired and get the private VLAN to work on trunk connections to our ESX servers.  Every time I try something different, he creates a new problem.

  In our configuration, our management of VLAN is not tag and we have a VLAN for this management network that is placed on our switches VLAN no marked native.  We also have virtual machines hosted on those same ESX servers that are on the same VLAN and everything works fine.  However, when I change the ESX management to carry a label on this VLAN and change the switchports accordingly (IE no untagged VLAN native), management work, but hosted on the ESX Server machines that are on the same VLAN can get no network connectivity.

  Is it possible to have a management network labeled and also the host of virtual machines on the same VLAN or is it totally impossible?  I'm not very familiar with networking behind ESX, so I apologize if this is a dumb question with an obvious answer.

  Thank you

  Is it possible to have a management network labeled and also the host of virtual machines on the same VLAN or is it totally impossible?

  Yes, it is possible... why it doesn't work for you I don't know, but try the following:

  1. set up the Group of ports of VMS to use VLAN;

  2 configure the interface of management VMkernel port group use VLAN;

  3 configure the physical switch port to allow to this VLAN and put the default VLAN natively for these interfaces.

• Start a virtual machine from the CD player on vSphere Client

  ESXi V4.1-

  I know how to get the virtual machine to connect to start for the host's cd drive.  But it seems I have to first of all power on the virtual machine, and then connect the client drive - and at this time, it will be too late.

  Report from the boot of 5 s after powering did not connect the CD from client to the virtual computer for 5 seconds pause - connection was grey until the virtual machine launched at startup.

  Is it possible for a start of the virtual machine from the CD of customer?

  When you see the white bar (after the virtual machine is started) press the key "ESC". This will bring you to a boot menu (which may not show the CD at the moment). At this time to connect the CD-ROM drive and then 'hot' starts the virtual machine by pressing CTRL-ALT-INS. Once the white bar is displayed, press the ESC key again. Now you should see the CD-ROM as boot device.

• Copy Virtual Machine on the ESX Server windows file server (files)

  I made a copy of a computer virtual with Vmware converter and it is sitting on the windows file server, is there a way to copy the files to the server, ESX4?  Something like a copy and paste?

  Thanks in advance!

  Simply right click on the data store you want to place the files on (Summary tab when selecting one of the hosts connected to this data store), select "Browse the data store" and then use the button "transfer files to this data store. You can use it to download a folder or file from a target, that you access from your system. It might make things easier if you create a folder in the store of data first, and then download the files one at a time. Make sure that the virtual machine is turned off when you do.

  Another option might be to vMotion/migrate it from current storage to a data store in the ESX environment. I did not the same type of migration before, it will or will not be, works correctly. I moved files VM from a source, see my workstation, up to a data store that the ESXi host has a connection to before without problem (with the virtual machine powered off course).

• Reset the timer to a vi running

  Hello

  I used 2 time elapsed timers inside my data acquisition loop to acquire digital signals only between lets say 11 s and s 11.05. The vi working properly if I stop the vi and run it again but the problem I have, this vi is a Subvi and since it is called by other vi, the timer will not be reset when it is called again if the elapsed time start from zero. Could you please let me know how can I reset timers when this vi is called as a Subvi.

  Thank you

  Hello tintin.

  To get the behavior (I think you) you want, you will need to use some sort of logic to reset the express screws when you want to - I suggest to use iteration of the loop (i) meter and a zero? Comparison function to reset the timer on the first iteration of the loop.

  Kind regards

• How can I reset the time

  Hello

  The function of the program was to indicate the elapsed time. When the program has been run and the switch set to true, the indicator showed the elapsed time. And then move the button to false, the stop indicator to indicate the elapsed time. How can I reset the time elapsed to indicate the time elapsed since 0 when the button switch again without pressing the button "stop"? The program is attached. Thank you.

  From your description, it seems that your code is way too complex. -What are you really trying to do?
