• Virtualize Macintosh HD desktop

  I'm starting in Windows 7 on my mac. Is is possible to use workstation to virtualize my existing installation of Mac os X? I'm aware Apple EULA does not allow for virtualization on non Mac hardware mac but I use a mac here.

  Thanks in advance.

  The only VMware product that supports OS X is VMware Fusion and it is only OS X Server 10.5 and 10.6.  Also, I believe that it is only in a normal file based Virtual Machine, do not use a raw disk, although I n tried since a raw disk.

• W530: VMWare virtualization 64-Bit

  Hello

  I am trying to run a virtual machine on my new device w530 64 but I get this error:

  "This host is VT-capable but VT is disabled.

  VT is enabled in the BIOS and the securable tool also tells me that it is enabled. Y at - it another option to set which I might have missed?

  Kind regards

  I had problems with VT - x with VirtualBox (on my Win7 64 bit).

  In the BIOS, I finally found the VT-settings. They were under "security". Virtualization", non-parameters 'CPU '.

  After that I enabled virtualization (VT - x) (I also enabled VT - d even if VirtualBox doesn't really support yet) VirtualBox worked fine - now I can run operating systems such as 64-bit virtual machines on my W530.

  VT - x still does not work for you, you should search for and terminate other applications that use the VT - x, because an application can use hardware virtualization both.

• Split x 2 Windows 8.1 Pro Hyper-V virtualization

  I have a portable x 2 Split.  Activation Windows Pro 8.1 "Hyper-V" and allow "Virtualization technology" in the bios forces the system to get stuck at the spinning points at startup HP.  I tried this with v 23, 24 and 26 of the bios.  I also tried to disable 'Configuration USB3.0 in pre-os' in the bios without success.  None of my attempts worked.  Anyone encountered this or someone has a solution or suggestions?

  Hello ChewyMichael, welcome to the Forums of HP.

  I see that you have trouble getting to enable virtualization technology and the laptop to start after. I will try to help you with this.

  I would like to direct you to a position of @TwoPointOh : Re: unable to start HP Bios enabled for win8.1 Pro Hyper-V virtualization technology.

• Install a non-of a Dell Poweredge 2850 server operating system

  Hello everyone.

  I was wondering how I could go about the installation of operating system, including Windows 7 and Windows XP on my server. I understand that they are not made for the server, but I would use Windows 7 instead of the server operating system. Windows XP is an option, but I'd rather not, if I have to

  Stick the DVD in the drive and start to install.  Chances are that Windows 7, like server 2008R2 will NOT have the drivers for the controller RAID (PERC 4e/Di), so use the driver 2008R2 for the RAID controller (and any other device requiring disks after installation).

  Controller RAID PERC 4e/Di to 2008R2 driver:
  http://ftp.Dell.com/SCSI-RAID/LSI-LOGIC_MULTI-DEVICE_A00_R227150.exe

  Also keep in mind that PERC does NOT support non-RAID, so you MUST configure RAID before installing, or even with the right driver, no hard drive is visible.

  Potential problems:

  Graphics - you should probably use the drivers of graphics/video 2008 x 64 for a decent resolution.  Keep in mind that server (such as 16 MB video memory) graphics will run NO Aero or high resolution/refresh.

  DRAC - if you have a DRAC (Dell Remote Access Controller) card installed, you will not be able to install drivers to meet these devices in Device Manager.

  Management system - software of management of Dell is NOT supported on the client OS.

  Other:

  In the 2850 processors do NOT support the VT, then you would be very limited with virtualization options.

  Sounds: there is no sound on a server.

• Virtualization of a physical Windows 2003 Server Standard live by Ethernet

  I intend to virtualize a Windows Server 2003 server standard of Ethernet based field.

  I am currently using the VMware Workstation 10.0.1 and I noticed/hear about the possibility of using "Virtualize a physical machine" to create a testmachine identical to one of my physical servers to clients.

  The physical server is running on a network domain, and it is quite critical.

  Can confirm them, it is possible to virtualize a Windows 2003 Server?

  Is it not possible to virtualize the server for example, live by Ethernet, without disturbing it?

  Best regards, Reynir

  Your physical Windows Server 2003 machine is a domain controller or a member server standalone field?

  If your server is not a domain controller, you can do a P2V from this machine without stops services, but there are always recommend stop all non Microsoft and no VMware services before starting the conversion, just to be course, there is any alteration of the data and other services like antivirus train killing the process of converter.

  For P2V recommended, please visit: KB VMware: best practices for using and troubleshooting VMware Converter

  And for the video tutorial of the P2V with VMware: VMware KB: convert a physical machine to the Fusion, Workstation or Player using stand-alone converter

• Official support for nested virtualization VMware

  VMware officially supports virtualization nested in production with ESX 5.5 environments?

  This article implies VMware does not support, but fails to mention ESXI 5.5:

  VMware KB: Support for ESXi/ESX implementation as a nested virtualization solution

  This document is kind of contradict:

  Nested VMs running

  It is said:

  "Virtualisee HV is fully supported for hardware virtual version 9 or 10 virtual machines on the hosts that support Intel VT - x or AMD - V and EPT of IVR. To enable virtualized HV, select VM-> settings and navigate to the processor settings screen. Check the box next to 'Virtualiser Intel VT-x/EPT or AMD-V/IVR.'

  And a fe down paragraphs:

  "ESX (i) can be used as a hypervisor reviews to learn more about the VMware Server products, experiment with Server installation, training, show demos and configurations of test." VMware does not support nested ESX (i) servers running in production environments. ESX (i) problems running in a nested configuration fall outside the agreements of level of Service and Support of VMware. »

  The article quoted deals only ESXi as a guest.

  Virtualized HV is supported as a CPU function virtual when used by a Type 2 hypervisor running under any operating system supported by.

• Virtualization of RSAT with ThinApp 5 - MMC MSC problems

  Hi all

  After a few months of navigation, I finally write something because I need help!  If I can get this problem resolved, I intend to publish a new recipe here on the discussion forums for the benefit of those who are running on the same problem.

  I did * tons * of research on this topic; Add attributes from command line in the file Package.ini; with the 32 key for MMC... which none work for me:

  -ThinApp version 5.0.0 - 1391583

  -Windows 7 SP1 x 86 (clean install, joined to the domain using the admin to package apps account)

  After you install RSAT on my VM, when you try to start AD users and computers, I get this error message:

  "MMC cannot open the file C:\Windows\system32\dsa.msc.

  It is perhaps because the file does not exist, is not an MMC console, or was created by a later version of MMC.  Perhaps it is also because you don't have sufficient access to the file.

  My ThinApp and target VMs are are both running the exact same Windows 7 SP1 build x 86, so I know this isn't a matter of platform (and people have done this before me, then...)

  For what it's worth, the Active Directory administration Center works very well, is the PowerShell snap-in in.

  AD domains and trusts Sites ads and Services, AD users and computers, CA, DFS, DNS, File Server Resource Manager and Group Policy Management all present them this error.

  Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!

  I don't know, but I tried to virtualize a MSC too and I got the same error with Thinapp 5.0.0. Reconstitution with 4.7.3 and he was happy.

  So I distributed the 4.7.3 version.

• Amount of memory overhead increases with hw assisted virtualization cpu?

  Hello

  browsing through some content, this paragraph has triggered my attention:

  What helps support CPU virtualization increases the amount of memory.

  Why is this? I can understand that if the MMU does not support the RVI/EPT, the management of the TLB and fictitious tables won't in a memory overload, but I don't see how hw assisted virtualization CPU has to do with it. (I guess that ESXi needs these same tables if using BT).

  I must be missing something here, someone willing to help me? Thank you!

  I don't know where this text comes from, but it's a mess.  The mention of version 9 of material almost certainly guarantee that it is in reference to virtualized virtualization assisted by material, which was officially introduced in version 9 hardware.  If so, the second sentence is a complete non-sequitur. The third sentence is again, very certainly with respect to virtualization to support virtualized.

  Using (as opposed to virtualization) hardware-assisted virtualization is independent of the version of the virtual hardware, does not increase the amount of memory required General and does not restrict vMotion to hosts that support hardware-assisted virtualization.

  Hardware support for virtualization virtualization does all of the things mentioned, * except * for a more effective implementation of the hypervisor.

• Select the folders before virtualization?

  Hello

  When you virtualize a physical machine with 8 Workstation or converter, I have not found an option to select the folder in which data copy to the VM. Virtualize copy all files, even if some would not be useful.  Am I wrong?

  Thank you

  Olivier

  ... I have not found an option to select the folder in which data copy to the VM...

  There is none. The converter converts the whole disks/volumes to the target VM. If you need to do a cleanup, you either do that before the conversion of the machine or virtual machine once the conversion is complete.

• A single server virtualization, make sense?

  Hi all

  There is none advantage at virtualization a single server ?
  The only benefits who come to mind when we talk of un single server are able to do clones et snapshots.

  There is a license that covers only an ESXi with VirtualCenter to manage? I read that the smallest is vsphere essentials covering 3 guests.

  Thanks in advance.

  You can make a clone of a poor and all simply turn off the virtual machine and make a copy of the VMDK. Then, simply create another virtual machine using the copy of the VMDK. I used to do all the time with ESXi.

  I think that makes a ton of sense to virtualize a single server. It isn't really a question of why it's a question of why not. You get all the benefits of the free virtualization database. He made the trip, the upgrade and so much easier Server backup.

• Virtualization for Office 2010 issue.

  Hi all.  I'm new to ThinApp and try to virtualize Office 2010.  I followed all the steps in the blog, as well as some of the other tips.  I used a Windows XP VM to virtualize, and I can run Office applications on other XP machines.

  When I click on help in one of the Office applications, Excel goes into a setting mode, then I get various error messages:

  1st error is

  Microsoft Office Excel MUI (English) 2010

  Error 1719.  The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed.  This can occur if you are running Windows in safe mode or if Windows Installer is not installed properly.  Contact your support team.

  The 2nd error is:

  CLView cannot display help.  The feature is not available.

  I tried the XP workstation I installed on the desktop and am able to successfully launch the help files.  I did not open one of the applications during the capture process.  Installation on the Workstation Service is running, and I activated CLView.exe in the package.ini, but none of it worked.  I did search but did not find anything that helps.

  Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

  Dave,

  It is a known problem in 4.6.1, please wait for a fix in future releases.

• 40 users with vmware workstation virtualization

  short version

  1. is there a tiny linux distro or another way to run workstation or player without having to start a host bulky all OS?  I would like to than most of the resources that will be displayed at the operating system PROMPT in my computer or player, but I can give him only what the host operating system is not relaxing, right?

  2 is it possible using startup scripts or similar for the workstation (or reader) run as soon as the host OS, boots and open a certain virtual machine mode full-screen, to make the user experience more like using a non virtualized desktop computer?

  / short version

  long version

  We need to standardize workstations XP users and decided to do it using virtualization.  We're not really big enough (40 users) to benefit from the view, or be able to afford.

  We would like to use VMWare workstation to create a virtual master we could do get out for users instead of having to do a format/reload every time they break a system.

  However, I want the user experience to be as transparent as possible for end users (of which most is not technical at ALL) the idea of "boot from an XP host, open desktop (or reader), then open their 'real' workstation vm is too much for them, really.

  Also, I personall dislikes the idea to run a full blown (XP OS) to host VMWare Player, to host an OTHER OS full blown.  I want to give on the guest virtual computer system resources as well.

  / long version

  1. Yes - it's possible. See it in action http://sanbarrow.com/moa24/videos/kiosk/kiosk.html

  2 Yes - XP for example you can set up the shell. Change explorer.exe to a command that starts with a VM specified in modepleinecran vmplayer

  Available disk options cannot be set during the installation of the pool.  If you have an existing pool that has not activated it then I think you need to create a new pool.

• Because of the Extensions of virtualization ESXi MANDATE Intel, what other products?

  This may seem obvious, but I already said x 86 virtualization extensions to improve the performance of the virtual machine, but are not required to run virtual machines.

  I installed ESXi 4.0 on an HP Proliant DL380 G4 of second hand.  The processor specifications are as follows:

  2 x 3.40 GHz

  800 MHz front side bus

  2 MB of L2 Cache

  Cela rising site Intel here: http://processorfinder.Intel.com/list.aspx?ProcFam=528 gives me a shortlist of 3 processors, which none have 'Intel virtualization technology'.

  I have managed to install ESXi 4.0 without problem but cannot install Ubuntu Server Edition on a virtual machine, as it says I need a disc compatible i686.  (I tried both 32 and 64 bit discs without result).  However, I am able to boot from the drive natively without all these error messages.

  In the BIOS of the machine, I can find no mention of virtualization extensions, so I am lost to what is the problem.

  If this is the case, are there any alternatives for me to virtualize this machine? (i.e. ESXi 3.5, ESX)

  Thanks in advance

  It takes on hosts for 64-bit clients Intel VT - x.  See KB 1003945.  VT - x is not required for 32-bit clients.  This is true for all VMware virtualization products.
