VM from esx 5.1 to 5.5 unable to have more then 8 CPU cores
Hi all
I had a virtual esx 5.1 machine that had 8 vcpu hearts.
I moved it to a new host with esx 5.5. The new host has 16 physical cores so I want my VM to have access to all of them.
I've corrected the license so now my VM should get all 16 of them. Successfully, I can create a new virtual machine that has access to all the processor cores and turn on.
But when I tried to change my VM settings I always get the same number of cores: 8.
I don't have a vCenter. The move has been accomplished by copying the vmx file and vmdk more to the new host and then right-click on the .vmx and selecting "add to the inventory.
anyone seen this before?
Thank you
Ok
then upgrade your hardware to fear to version 9 (vmx-09).
If you create the snapshot before you upgrade you can undo all changes if you want, so I'll try to go for HW version 10.
When you change your virtual machine, which is selected for OS on the Options-> General Options tab?
Kind regards
P.

Hello and welcome to the communities.
How did you move it, or what was the process? You might want to try VMware Converter, if you do not.

Direct upgrade from esx 3.5 to esx 4.1
Hello
I've already upgraded to vCenter 2.5 to 4.1, now I'm upgraded by train from esx 3.5 to esx 4.1 and all of the articles and videos that I have read say that I need to download the upgrade zip file and do the upgrade through VMware host update utility (as I am only upgrade 2 hosts).
However, when I try to download the zip file, the only option I get is
ESX 4.1 Update 1 (updated the ZIP of ESX 4.0)
Use this package with vCenter Update Manager 4.1 U1 or vihostupdate vCLI or esxupdate command line to upgrade ESX ESX 4.0 to ESX 4.1 update 1.Which allows an upgrade to version 4.0 (or if she says). Can I use this zip file?
I even went back through all the versions 4.0, and there is no upgrade for 3.5 anywhere zip file?
How can I make this update of the utility of the upgrade using the host?
Concerning
Steven
In my view, an error in the above steps.
Are you using ESX and ESXi, you will need to download ESX 4.1 install ISO for upgrade from ESX3.5 to ESX4.1 driver
You must use vCenter Update manage or esxupgrade.sh for upgrade. No other tool as vihostupdate, host update utility etc. are not supported.
For more details from vCenter update manager, refer to the admin guide and for esxupgrade.sh, see http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=1009440&sliceId=2&docTypeID=DT_KB_1_1&dialogID=170100028&stateId=1%200%20170096294

Impossible to move from ESX 4.0 update 4.1
Hi all
I am trying to upgrade my servers ESX 4.0 to 4.1, but I'm running into an error.
I did the following:
(1) download the update1a package and copied to the ESX host in the /upgrades folder
(2) put the host in Maintenance Mode
(3) connected to the host via putty
Navigated 4) in the folder with the copied update
(5) run the following commands: esxupdate - stage ESX410 - 201010001.zip bundle
(6) restarted ESX host, again executes the command, still the same error.
When I run the command, I get the error the server below.

Thank you

The package you have there are a lot of patches for ESX 4.1, you are currently on the 4.0.
You will need to upload the complete bundle of upgrade to 4.1 from the download site instead of the one you have.
http://downloads.VMware.com/d/info/datacenter_downloads/vmware_vsphere_4/4_0
If you're upgrading from the command line, there is a bundle of pre-upgrade you will have to install first of all, when you use the Update Manager is not necessary.
When this is done, you can apply the patches of 4.1.
You are mixing patches and upgrades.

You are able to access the server via the console KVM MMIC and luanch?
You plan to install ESXi on Flexflash internal drive or hard drives?

I'm moving from PC to iMac. I think that I have brought successfully my profile. My work id of addressbook, but no mail received file is obvious. The Mail subfolder in the profile of 'new' - "Mail" - is about the same size - 1.6 GB - as it was on the PC, so I guess that the mail has not moved, however, there is no sign of what I can find on the page "news" of Thunderbird. I did move by copying the profile folder of the PC on the Mac desktop, raise the profile of Mac beside him folder and dragging the PC Mail subfolder to the mail folder in the Mac profile. I think I am way over my head here; I really want to solve the problem, so I can mothball the PC. Thanks is advance for your help.
OK, the ini file will be
MacHD>Users>RKW (me)>Library>Thunderbird
The profile folder will be in MacHD > users > RKW (me) > library > Thunderbird > profiles with a name like d1234pg. By default. When copying content. It is this lower level folder called. Not MacHD > users > RKW (me) > library > Thunderbird > profiles.
To simplify a little (I hope so.
Install Thunderbird. go to the Help menu in Thunderbird and select troubleshooting information.
In this tab, click on the button show the frlder for the profile.
Finder will open with the open current profile folder.
Close Thunderbird.Now, locate the old profile folder, it will be contains pref.js as a file among many others.
Copy the files and folder to this folder, and place them in the new folder Thunderbird open in the Finder for you. To replace the files.Open Thunderbird and you should have it all.

Question
On the right of the adressbox, I always have Yahoo then Google, how can I solve that, I already delete Yahoo from the list in the box search, but every time I start firefox Yahoo is back. Thanks Ron Mijtelen ter, Amsterdam.Hi Ron,
Have you looked at article in the Knowledge Base using the search in Firefox bar? There are lots of good information in there. You happen to have an installed Yahoo! toolbar? You must disable or delete as well if you do. Try to start Firefox in Mode safe mode by holding down the SHIFT key while starting Firefox. If you have any problems using the safe, it's a matter of add-on or extension.
Hope this helps!
