• Motorola Phone Tools install problem

  HP Vista 64-bit. Can I get an installer loaded, but it will not install the program completely. I had my XP and I think that the problem has to do with Vista. Is there some kind of patch or something to make it compatible? Thank you.

  What version of MPT do you have? I think you need V5.0 for Vista.

• stop machines virtual If vm tools installed

  Hello

  Is there any script shutdown of MV gracefully where vm tools installed otherwise stop with force and expect that all virtual machines stop and export this output.

  What you want to export, the names of the virtual machines and how they were arrested?

  If you put the code above in a separate file .ps1, you can add a statement, param, and who use the name of the cmdlet Get - VM parameter.

  Like this

  Param([String[]]$VMNames)

  Get-VM-name $VMNames | %{

  if($_.) {ExtensionData.Guest.ToolsRunningStatus - eq "GuestToolsNotRunning")}

  Stop-VM - VM $_ - confirm: $false

  }

  else {}

  Stop-VMGuest - VM $_ - confirm: $false

  }

  }

  Now you can call this

  .\myScript.ps1 - VMNames $vmspwof

• Stop virtual machines with or without VMware tools installed

  So after a power failure major where I work has taken place where the batteries of the UPS only ran about 10 minutes and the emergency generator didn't kick in, I was put in charge of writing a script that starts to stop the virtual machines and servers in a given cluster. Now that I am relatively new to the environment here, so I don't know if all the virtual machines have the tools are installed. I want to cover all bases and the virtual machines that do not have the tools installed. My script done now is it initiates closing the comments on all the virtual machines and check every 10 seconds to 120 seconds for virtual machines go offline if after 120 seconds, there are even virtual machines online, it issues a shutdown command on all servers that have not stopped. Now, he'll catch all the virtual machines, but I don't want the machine have to wait 2 minutes before totality if it can be avoided (remember that this script will be executed when the data center goes to the power of the UPS for every watt account to keep critical systems online). the script throws an error when it cannot stop because no tool is installed, so I thought I could use a try/catch block to catch the error and send just a detroit of turning control of these VMs off. I tried to do, but without success.

  Is it possible that I can either catch the error, or a stop all virtual machines that do not have the tools installed?

  Attached is my code, maybe you can spot what can I do to stop the virtual machines without tools within the do / while loop when errors occur first.

  Add-PSSnapin VMware.VimAutomation.Core
  $server = $args [0]
  $cluster = $args [1]
  SE connect-VIServer-Server $server
  $counter = 0
  {}
  If (Get-Cluster-name $cluster | get - vm | where {$_.powerstate - eq 'receiving'}) {}
  If ($counter - eq 0) {}
  Get-Cluster-name $cluster | get - vm | where {$_.powerstate - eq "receptor"} | stop-VMGuest-confirm: $false
  }
  Write-Host "VMs are on waiting" (120-$counter)"seconds"
  $counter = $counter + 10
  Sleep 10
  }
  }
  While ($counter - 110)-or ((Get-VMHost |)) Get - VM | where {$_.powerstate - eq "receptor"}) .count)-No 0
  If ($counter = 120) {}
  Write-Host "certain virtual machines did not not stop properly, tension now.
  Get-Cluster-name $cluster | get - vm | where {$_.powerstate - eq "receptor"} | Stop-VM-confirm: $false
  }
  Write-Host "Putting servers into maintenance mode."
  Get-cluster-name $cluster | Get-vmhost | where {$_.state - eq 'connected'} | Game-VMHost-State "Maintenance".
  Sleep 10
  Write-Host "stop servers."
  Get-cluster-name $cluster | Get-vmhost | where {$_.state - eq 'Maintenance'} | Stop-VMHost-confirm: $false
  Disconnect-VIServer-confirm: $false

  Try something like this

  $vm = Get-VM
  $vm | where {$_.Guest.State -eq "Running"} | Shutdown-VMGuest -Confirm:$false $vm | where {$_.Guest.State -eq "NotRunning"} | Stop-VM -Confirm:$false
  

  Virtual machines running VMware tools will get a judgment of comments, while the virtual machines that do not have the VMware tools running, will get a poweroff.

• Script to find all the VMS with dates/no tools installed.

  Hey,.

  I need help guys.  I need a script that finds all VMS in vCenter which do not have the tools installed or tools or outdated.  I also need the script to generate the following data in a CSV file.  Name of the virtual machine and the State of the tools (not installed or outdated).

  Thank you guys.

  Good suggestion. 'Get-View - ViewType VirtualMachine' is much faster than ' Get - VM | Get-View»

  You inspired me to go at maximum speed. So I moved all the filtering also to the cmdlet Get-View. The following script is used in my environment about 30% faster than what you suggested. My first script took me 1 minute 50 seconds. Your script 1,624 seconds. And the following script 1,110 seconds in an environment with about 500 virtual machines...

  Get-View -ViewType VirtualMachine -Property Name,Guest.ToolsStatus -Filter @{
    "Config.Template"="False";"Guest.ToolsStatus"="toolsNotInstalled|toolsNotRunning|toolsOld"} | `
  Select-Object @{N="Name";E={$_.Name}},@{Name="ToolsStatus";E={$_.Guest.ToolsStatus}} | `
  Export-CSV -Path VmToolsStatus.csv -NoTypeInformation -UseCulture
  

  "Config.Template"="False" filter models so that you get only the virtual machines.

  "Guest.ToolsStatus"="toolsNotInstalled | toolsNotRunning | toolsOld" returns invited with ToolsStatus toolsNotInstalled or toolsNotRunning or toolsOld.

  Thanks to Eric Wannemacher to show me how to use regular expressions in a Get - view filter in his blogpost: VMware PowerCLI and Get-View filters.

• Can how fast I get a virtual network adapter on a computer server VMware vmware tools installed w/o?

  Hello

  I use a custom Linux VM on a Linux VMware Server host. That my Linux VM is on measurement, I don't want to install VMware tools on my virtual machine. My question is without VMware tools installed on my virtual machine, is it possible for my virtual machine to connect at gigabit speeds. My server host has a gigabit network connection.

  Thank you

  Varun

  without vmware-tools, make sure you that you use the E1000 nic in the comments and not the obsolete AMD

  Check with the vmx file and make sure that you have

  ethernet0.virtualDev = "e1000".

• ThinkPad X 220 clean install problems (Windows 7 USB/DVD Tool)

  Hi all

  My apologies if this has been answered before (I searched through the forums of viable solutions).

  I tried to format my hard drive on my laptop Lenovo Thinkpad X 220 and perform a new installation of Windows.

  Since my laptop doesn't have any CD player, I went to download a Windows 7 .iso file professional hoping to use it as a

  bootable USB tool.

  Extract the file .iso on the USB port, went into the BIOS and choose USB, but in vain.

  Decided to download the exe tool Windows 7 USB/DVD with the .iso file I always had, but eventually received this message:

  

  After a bit of searching on Google, apparently there is a bypass to this by changing the file .iso of UDT (However the .iso file I had was already ranked UDT).

  If anyone has had experiences with this, I'd love to hear your comments or advice.

  Hi Hiro,

  I think I downloaded the two files .iso on this site here which has the same links.

  Looks like .iso files are corrupt (I've heard some people sometimes had to re-download).

  I looked for alternatives and eventually found one that worked.

  Thanks for the help.

• Desktop HP Pavilion p6210y PC: RAM install problem

  My office is in the factory with the exception of the video card which is a NVIDIA Geforce GTX 750Ti graphics card.  I bought by 4 chips of RAM DDR2 PC2 6400U 800 MHZ 240 PIN by Samsung and installed according to the instructions from HP.  I also double checked my bios and updated to the latest version that has been on the HP website on 20/05/15.   When installed and rebooted my computer I first had a problem with my computer freezing completely on my and I have to make a difficult stop by disconnecting the tower.  I did a reboot and done a diagnosis (F9) and waited to see what would do the memory.  Initially, I had a 'FAIL' BIOMEM-1 error.  After a few attempts, I then is gone one chip at a time and done the same thing.  After that the first 3 installs successfully, I determined then a single chip was bad.  At this point, I restarted my system and started running it with 12g of RAM.  After about 10 minutes, my computer froze again and went to a blue screen stop.  After that restart the desired system get a dskchk is for windows.   I've looked online and made a Windows hotfix, and cured this problem but continued to get the gel and closed blue.  I then reinstalled the factory RAM chips, and it is not reappeared since.  According to all that I can see 3 of my chips are good and should run.  What other steps could be or are at - it a driver for updating bios them or not, I have to do?  Help, please!

  @sooperglew

  Only using three DIMMs will force the PC to run in single channel mode.

  Your first consideration should be Support HP or HP sales during the consideration of upgrades or replacement of memory. If you want to consider other manufacturers of the best way to avoid memory problems is to contact one of the leading manufacturers of memory. I would recommend that you try the tools of these manufacturers: Corsair, Kingston andCrucial. Once you have determined the DIMMs that you need, then contact commercial or technical support to check that you have selected the correct DIMMS. If you buy directly from manufacturers, then they will stand behind their products.

• install problems in time real 8.6

  Hi all

  I m trying to install 8.6 in real-time on a target office. I have executed the audit tool, and it says that it s a consistent target.

  I created the key USB of PC desktop utility and formatted the target without any problem.

  When I rebooted the PC network adapter has been initialized with the following address: 169.254.81.194 and it doesn´t appear on MAX.

  He should have started with 0.0.0.0, so that we can then set the IP address.

  I'm doing something wrong?

  Thank you

  Hi Adam!

  You said before that you had 2 network cards!

  Can take you a look at this page: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/FD9E1AF5AB1343098625736F0076DE6B?OpenDocument

• Malicious software removal tool update problems the last few months. Suspended for a very long time. Vista Home Premium 32 bit SP2

  Hello

  The last 3 months when the download and installation of my updates for Windows Vista, it gets stuck for hours on the malicious software removal tool. I have to cancel it. Restart the computer and reinstall. Then he moved very well and quickly according to historical updates. Last month, it was really difficult to cancell it well. He finally got through it. Here is a little history on my machine. I'm very very well with this computer. Each week, I do disk Cleanup, then defrag with diskeeper, virus scan with Microsoft Security Essentials. And every six months, I run a very large disk check and I said to correct errors and try to fix bad sectors. More than 3 years, I only had 2 minor bluescreens. I always make sure I have all my products Microsoft put updated. When I first got this computer I had a guy I.T. (a neighbor) out of the box and clean all the useless garbage out of it and it partitioned the hard drive. More than 3 years, he managed as a champion. Always very fast and all.

  I hope that I'm not the only person having problems with this. Just start with the month of June, then July, then August.

  P.S. I have 2 laptops running XP sp3, one is 9 years old and the other is 11 years old, he had 2000 top PRO, but I just put XP sp3 on it last month. They run too much like fields. I take good care of my computers with a little help from my friend IT. They have the same programs as this one and I do the same things to them, but they do not have this same problem with the release of the MSRT tool. Which leads me to think that it is specific to Vista only, I have a Windows 7 computer yet, so I can't speak for seven.

  Any suggestions or ideas? We are scratching our heads on this one.

  Thank you in advance for your time and help

• HP Deskjet 3070 (All-in-one/Wireless) install problem Win 7 64

  Hello world

  I wonder if others have had similar problems or ideas on the underside, surely I can't be the only one to use this installation/suffering with this problem.

  Printers: HP Deskjet 3070 All in One (USB/Wifi)

  Operating systems: Windows 7 64-bit (installed absolutely fine on Win 7 32 bit laptop computer connected via wifi).

  Setup: - a Homehub BT, providing WiFi for laptop (Win7 32 bit), a desktop computer (WinXP SP3), the printer has an IP address, which is visible on the home network map - it has a MAC address also. My PC: connected by Ethernet to the homehub which is currently running wifi for all of the foregoing.

  Drivers using downloaded: -.

  + Computer laptop Win 7 32 bits connected via WiFi to the Homehub - installed fine, found printer - this is the stage where the printer receives a configuration intial IP address / completed.

  + WinXP SP3 connected through WiFi to Homhub - as above, correct, opportunity driver found the printer (which, at this time already, there).

  If the printer exists within the network, other computers can see / use it.

  ++ My PC: Win 7 64 bit connected by ETHERNET to Homehub (she does not and will not have a wireless option).

  Downloaded the drivers to install HP. (later tried "Run as Administrator"), select the software components (i.e. Remove feedback/coupons etc), installs OK applications, next step is the configuration of the printer. Add a new printer. "Check network" window appears with the message "Checking network environment" bar and the State. The status bar springs upward but stops dead at the filled Stadium. No possibility to choose whatever it, pressing Cancel has no effect. End of task here generates an error of 'work '. 'devicesetup.exe' stopped The installer never ends, applications are installed, but at no time, it shows the printer/selection.

  I tried many things: complete uninstall "engines", which in this case seem to be the only applications, ensure that all non-essential startup items are disabled, make sure that the firewall is DISABLED (just to be sure), ensure that the anti-virus is disabled there is, in fact, no other printer installed (this computer never had a printer attached to it) make sure file sharing and printing are powered, ensure that there is no TCP/IP/ports printers mapped etc... Still the same error, old or new drivers, always the same - installation does not complete.

  All the doctor diagnostic tools/printing tell me I have to install the driver software (I agree) but direct me to the HP site to download the ones I already have.

  I can't enter the Server Web integrated (the PC where I can't install the drivers, or one of the 2 PC's who have installed correctly). One of them if I click on networking or wireless or advanced it warns a HTTPS connection and then fails with "internal server error".

  My questions to someone kind enough to read this wall of text: -.

  + Anyone has any ideas please? I would prefer not to return the printer as defective because it seems to be a good all-rounder and it works for 2 other PCs in the House, its just mine which does not connect! Sad...

  I'll try the USB installation and then removing the USB-> wireless to see if that can help. I had previously seen articles where people offer to buy a router to 3rd party like that is basically a wifi pass through broadcaster. It is not for me thanks

  Thank you all for reading at least, it's now corrected with slightly reduced functionality.

  Install the USB printer, then DO NOT convert into wireless via HP drivers/installation.

  Change the USB to a TCP/IP port port newly created under the control panel of the printer (windows 7), enter the IP manually to the printer - you want an IP address that will change not in order to make this work - forcing the Home Hub to never provide that the same IP unique to this particular device was the easiest way for me. This connected but showed as offline printer constantly, others may have different experiences.

  To fix that (for me): -.

  Installing the printer in Control Panel Goto, force reinstall drivers HP ("via the drive"). Make sure that all the old files are overwritten. Turn the printer and then turn on (power button - twice if in mode "standby" to disable). Wait until the wireless light will stop flashing and become solid blue. Check in Control Panel if the status is online, if so you are good to go

  As a result of this sabotage, you lose the feature advanced scan for PC etc etc, but the real impression seems to be absolutely perfect. The printer is always available to everyone on the network, etc.

  Good luck to all.

• VMware tools install fails - Centos 6.2 on VMware Workstation 8

  Some setting in context.

  ArcSight make an OVF vmware assessment based on Centos 6.2. I am able to install VMware tools on the ESXi 5.1 platform supported but NOT on VMware Workstation version 8.0.6 build 1035888 which is apparently not supported but works fine on my laptop.
