vmtoolsd.exe uses a large number of discussions

Hi all

We use VMware tools a few years now on our Windows 2012R2 environment.

But the last months we receive complains that some of our users of remote office that our servers are slow, memory is full, and users cannot sign outgoing/incoming.

After investigating this matter, we see that VMtoolsd.exe uses a lot of memory.

And it takes a lot of time to kill the process.

In the resource monitor, we discovered that the process uses a lot of discussion (sometimes 80,000). After killing the process, threads are down slowly to zero. After that the server responding normal.

On the internet I can't find someone who has this problem.

We have a large number of servers. This question is only a few of them.

We use ESXi 5.0 and VMtools 8.6.11 build-1310128

Anyone know what is happening?

Wow, it looks like you are using the tools provided with ESXi 5.0 Update 3 October 2013.  There has been several fixes for ESXi 5.0 update 3.  The latest patch for ESXi 5.0 features new tools (8.6.15 build-2495133).

    I'm running a problem then the breakup of the books that when I use a large number of recipients that they are unable to send, in fact the scheduled task ends but fails to update the display in the workspace or to send an error, but the books are created correctly and can be seen in the structure of folders.

    If I use a smaller set of recipients, let's say less than 20 they email correctly and everything seems to go as planned.

    Y at - it a type of configuration file that should be adjusted to allow larger lots to be run?

  • user vmtoolsd.exe instance does not work

    Hello

    Running VMWare Fusion 4 (latest version 4.1.2) with a guest from Windows 7 Professional.  The guest computer belongs to a Windows domain.

    I don't have a copy/paste/drag-and-drop functionality / unit.  The suspension/shutdown/restart all are prefixed with 'Force '.

    After searching around, I found out that all of this functionality is supported by the user instance of vmtoolsd.exe using the "n vmuser' switch.

    The problem I have is that the process crashes with no errors/logs/messages that I can find.  Is it possible to debug the process or know why it crashes?

    I tried to re - install VMWare Tools several times in several conditions (Run As...) who have worked.  I rebooted after each assembly/disassembly.

    Thanks in advance

    Biggle78 wrote: I have a question where the interruption. Restart | Stop options are displayed as 'Force', but at least now I have copy, paste and time synchronize with my guest.

    If someone finds out the reason for the "strength" that would completely solve my problems with this prompt.

    I know the OP of this thread is a bit old, almost a year and I don't know why I initially missed it first however since you have just referenced this thread in your answer Re: vmtoolsd.exe Will not start to process USER, I though that I would answer the second edition of this album...  It seems that the Virtual Machine is not created in VMware Fusion and as an example if I copy a Virtual Machine from one of my windows on my Mac, it displays the orders of 'Force' by default.  In other words, pressing the Button Option is at the back of what its supposed to be.  It is because the following options are missing in the .vmx of the Virtual Machine configuration file.

    powerType.powerOff = "soft"
    powerType.powerOn = "soft"
    powerType.suspend = "soft"
    powerType.reset = "soft"
    

    By default, VMware Fusion creates these options in the .vmx of the Virtual Machine configuration file is not the case of VMware Player/workstation.  Then, add only the options above for the .vmx of the Virtual Machine configuration file and 'strength...' commands will then exhibit a normal behavior VMware Fusion.  This means that to access orders 'Force' you must press the Option key pressed.

    Take a look at: changing the file .vmx for your VM of Fusion (1014782)

    Post edited by: WoodyZ - another scenario and not the only other to do this is a P2V/V2V, using VMware vCenter Converter to create the Virtual Machine as if I remember correctly it omits these options as well.

  • I used all the memory in my iPad and you want to delete some pictures.  Any way to select a large number of photos for deletion at the same time, rather than individually?

    I can't find a way to the iPad to choose a large number of photos at the same time (similar to the use of the SHIFT key to select a group of files in windows).  I would like to delete a large number of photo files to save storage space can be used for the future taking pictures.  I wonder if there is an easier way to do that than to have to select and remove each file individually rather than delete them as a group.  By the way this should be done twice if you want immediate deletion.  There must be an easier way.  We appreciate and support.

    Open your photos > press Select > drag your finger through the photos you want to delete. To remove deleted lately, open the recently deleted album > press Select > tap Delete everything in the upper left corner. -AJ

  • I'm looking to build a simple site to accommodate a large number of photos.

    Hello

    I'm looking to build a simple site to accommodate a large number of photos. The site is not for a standard wallet - it's just that my team can look through a set of images as thumbnails low resolution and be able to download the versions high-resolution individually on the site. A simplified version of this: | Agami

    If we could, we would like to also password protect these downloads or the site itself.

    Does anyone have advice/tips/ideas/widgets which could help with this? I am aware of sites such as Photobucket etc however I have a decent level of experience with Muse and site, I thought it's maybe cheaper out in this way that the necessary storage volume is pretty huge.

    Thanks in advance!

  • JRun.exe uses 100% of CPU

    Someone at - it guidance on this issue.

    Win NT2003 server using Apache + mysql DB CF8 Standard
    JRun.exe has recently started using 100% of time CPU under the supervision of taskmgr

    We thought it was related to the use of client variables and fill out the register, but having this application off and cleaned the registry from 500 MB to 18 MB! (also tried to use DB to store)

    Have searched google - many examples of question in older versions of CF, but this issue is specifically with MX8

    It is possible that some runaway process / application is causing the problem, but find it proves elusive, is it possible to get more information about coldfusion as what he does?

    Coldfsion restart service solves the problem for about 2 hours, and then it happens again.

    OK, the problem is resolved. For anyone who is interested. We have looked at Apache access.log and noticed a LARGE number of PROPFIND requests this narrowing it seems to open a word document in our CF application and then closing it caused a loop to implement.
    Essentially, the closure of the doc he tried to open the index.cfm which redirected to home.cfm and returned to index.cfm somehow

    Change apache configured to use home.cfm instead of index.cfm fixed the problem.

  • After you have moved a large number of emails in a new folder, number of emails that are unrelated in time and the topic themselves grouped into son

    Recently, I moved a large number of emails (filtered by sender) in a new folder I created in Thunderbird.
    The emails themselves arranged in threads that are independent of any discernible factor. Some e-mails with 7 years in dfference are strung together. Also, date / reception function triage is not properly sort, IE the new emails are not at both ends of the sort, nor in the nets. Once again, no visible trend.
    I checked on gmail, where emails are hosted, and none of these issues is apparent.
    It's important questions to find emails, especially since when I enter a search term in the filter and it has no result, but then generate results when I use the search function.

    OK, right click on the folder, select properties and then repair. Just in case that helps.

  • Using a Skype number for working

    Hello

    I live in Italy and I work for a Dutch company. I'll have to call a large number of Dutch customers and they should be able to remember. It's very expensive to call with my phone to other countries, so I was thinking of using Skype for this. Of course, if I use Skype to call, I also want people to call me on Skype while I don't need to use my phone at all. That's why I read on the Skype number that seems a good idea. However, I have a few questions.
    1. I understand that does not allow the number of Skype to call, because you have to buy credits. I understand that, but my question is if buy Skype credit and I'm connected with my Skype number, when I call clients, they see my Skype number? It would be perfect if they can remember easily.

    I hope you can help me with this question.

    Kind regards
    Laura

    A number of Skype is for people to call you only and didn't need to make credit or any other subscription that I am aware, so you get your number Skype in Holland and they can contact you at the national rate rather than international rates.

    You can set up identification of the calling line, this "Caller ID" Skype call, you can use your Skype number in there, or your number of laptop if you want to receive texts, your choice, but be aware that some parts of the country, telecommunications companies and even individuals turn off this option isn't 100% that each person you are calling will see your number , but most.

    To make calls from phone numbers you need credits or a subscription, from what I've seen and developed, subscriptions work cheaper than the credits and the bigger the package you sub for best case, given you call another European country, I'd watch the landline and mobile phones Europe unlimited, but you can just get a package for the call of the Nederland , your choice, but if you pay every month it's more expensive to pay each year.

    If you have a subscription, you get a discount on your Skype number subscription, look the best deal for you.

    Hope that helps.

  • RN104: 6.4.1: could not open the folder with a large number of files

    Hello world.

    I have a situaton that I can not open a previous file created with a large number of files stored in it.

    There at least 2000 photographs, and when I try to browse, the content is never displayed.

    Curiously, traversing a small file with say, 1000 records, it opens right.

    I have reset the permissions without effect and I can't open it with RAIDar is.

    Any suggestons? I'm about to happen for the pallets of the defibrillatior!

    Thank you!

    Hello Stephen

    I was finally able to recover my files 3000 + using 'snapshot' and download the files on my computer!

    I found a date where they were all visible.

    I bought a new RN204 and move them to the new unit, as well as all my other data.

    It is much faster with more memory as well.

    Thank you

  • Possible to set up buffer - delay in the implementation of large number of buffers - IMAQ trigger problem

    Hi all

    I thought that I could transfer it here because it might be a more appropriate forum. I have a bit of time pressure, so I hope someone can help me. I'm having a problem with a program that I wrote to acquire and store images from a camera to linear scan.

    My camera (SUI Goodrich, 1024 pixels) is connected to a card framegrabber (PCIe-1427), which is connected via a RTSI cable to a PCI-6731 card attached to a SCC-68 (series) connector M.  My goal is to drive a mirror galvanometer scanning and acquire images from the camera continuously on each scan. As the galvo scan will be the frame of an image (1024 pixels x 1024 lines).

    I managed to do it (I think), as my direct purchase program works exactly as I expected. However, when I try to save the images, I noticed that for a larger number of images, the starting point of the image is shifted the same amount for each image. I'm not really sure what's going on, it seems to me that there is a delay in the use of the VI "IMAQ set up buffer" when a larger number of buffers is used, (or even 100). Is it possible that my hardware trigger does not wait for all buffers to be configured before you start to run?

    I would really appreciate any idea or ideas that anyone could have on this issue.

    Sincere greetings,

    Gill

    I fixed the problem by doing that I don't use actually 1000 stamps to save 1000 frames. Program works if the number of buffers is lowered.
