VMware and UPS (power of groups)

Someone at - it a configuration suggested for the use of VMware Workstation with a UPS?

The configuration on which I set is to install the utility on the host Machine and the Virtual Machine (s) UPS.  The inverter is connected to the host via a USB port. The utility will stop the host on the blackout after n minutes.  To start a virtual machine it takes the reins of USB, for example, the UPS utility.

On the power supply failure, i.e., on battery, the virtual machine is forced to suspend, releasing control of the inverter to the host Machine.  After a few minutes, the host machine is stopped by the UPS utility.  Logic looks good, although a bit convoluted.

Hope my explanation is clear.

Everybody brings something similar, something different?

In general, I don't have the physical host directly communicate with the ups.  In part it depends on what type of software your using UPS.  I have a Tripplite and it has a 'server' and a client application.  The server app is installed on the machine that is physically connected to the USB cable from the UPS.  The app server can send a stop signal to any computer that is running the client application.  If the physical host server application and my virtual machines have the client application.  I put the threshold for virtual machines to close earlier than the host.  (e.g.: 10% battery remaining closed when VMs.)  Host stops when 5% remaining).  This gives the VMs sufficient time to stop before the host stops.  (Most of the VMS I don't suspend).  No need to have to go the 'control' between the VM and the host.

For other brands of UPS, they can call their version of the software a "network" version and sometimes is not on any CD included, but you need to download or pay for it.

    Hi all

    I have two business units who want to have a view of their grouping. Create a dashboard for each cluster, or is there another way to approach this problem.

    See you soon

  • I'm new to VMware and need help.

    I'm new to VMWare and barely installed ESXi 6.0 created a host but now I can not install Windows 2012 r2. Cannot access the ISO. Do I need the plugin integration customer or what. I called tech support and they would not help because I am on trial. Any help would be great. Thank you

    You select the ISO in the settings of the virtual machine and select 'connect at Power On "? Alternatively, you can connect the ISO in the current state (power on) and then press CTRL-ALT-INS to 'hot' start the virtual machine.

    André

    PS: If it still does not work, check that you have a bootable ISO image, for example not only a picture of Service Pack.

    If I press the power button / stop it makes no noise, the power LED on the button and the second power LED just bliks once and turns on and keep blinking every 5 seconds.

    I tried to:
    * Remove battery and power up with AC only

    * remove the battery power button hold for 30 seconds and over power with AC, battery only athen

    but it did not help.

    I checked the LEDs AC & battery, but they do not blink, they are just RED, so there is no problem in battery or AC.

    No idea where could be the problem?

    Thanks for help

    Hello

    The failure of RAM could be the reason for this behavior of the laptop.
    Remove the RAM modules with good modules tested and check the functionality of the laptop.
    In the case of RAM isn t the troublemaker, the motherboard could be affected.

    Good luck and share your experience with us.

    Someone else did this happen to them? My MacBook Pro (early 2011) making a loud beep sound and the power and turn off several times while he was installing the new os 10.11.2 update this morning? Everything seems to work fine, I've just been caught unawares. I've never had such a thing happened to me in updating my mac. Someone else?

    I think the install dialog says that the mac can shut down and put into service once more.

    How it is possible to rotate or whole groups of mirrored components? If you select a group of components and apply the mirror or rotation on each component group feature is mirrored or rotated separately and not as a group.

    Hi Nils,

    It is not really possible.

    If you enable a group of components and try to turn, each component will be rotatet for herself and not as a group.

    XP is unable to complete the loading and the power of travel. It will restart in Mode safe with no problems and then restart to normal safe mode. All programs and everything seem to work OK. CHKDSK/r was run from the installation disk and indicates disk errors have been corrected. Restart the hibernation or standby also works.

    I have lived with this for a few months and reinstalled XP and then new service Pack 3. Nothing done until this difference

    Hmmm...

    NVIDIA drivers are definitely outdated.

    If the system just stops (literally goes off), I suppose a marginal connection inside, an out-of-date driver or a heat problem.

    You can carefully and without requiring too much force, remove one reinstall all you cable and connection inside including your RAM and all other devices installed just do one thing at the time, so you don't mix.  One thing at a time... Unplug it and plug it in again.

    If she runs in Mode safe, your it would mean that the system uses the default XP video drivers (that is why everything is so GREAT in Mode safe).

    When you start normally and will charge drivers NVIDIA, things will run more hot.  Will increase the time on the CPU and video card.  Make sure that all your fans are running, and the system is properly ventilated and ventilated.

    If the CPU or processor on the video card is a problem of heat it just stop - no warning, no newspaper, no nothing.  Cool that turned off for awhile and it could work again for a bit.

    I use the NVIDIA site and let scan them online take a look at your video system and see what he suggests for drivers and consider their analysis if they offer a new driver.

    It is recommended to run the scan NVIDIA with Internet Explorer.

    Here is the address of the NVIDIA page:
    http://www.nvidia.com/download/Prescan.aspx?lang=en-us

    Read the instructions, and then click the GRAPHICS DRIVERS button to start the scan.

    You must be on the 275.33 version and you are now on 178.13 (from you given msinfo).

    Is it possible to access the use of memory and processing power charge connect 6224 via SNMP? If possible, should the mib I use?

    Thanks in advance

    Rogerio

    When looking through the available MIB found in the zip file for download of the latest firmware.  I see that the MIB fastpathswitching mentions 'agentSwitchCpuProcessGroup '.

    MIB fastpathlogging has 'agentLogInMemoryConfigGroup '.

    There is no reference document material about what offer different MIB.

    I hope this helps.

  • Difficulty in the light on the AC adapter and the power light power on after connect you to the laptop

    HP Pavilion dv3t notebook. Each time get adapter connect to the laptop, it takes at least 10 minutes to get the AC adapter and power indicator light on. Sometimes it does not light on all day.  It always happens any with the battery or not.

    If I start the laptop with the light on the AC adapter and the power light, no matter how I move the power cord, it maintains support, works very well.

    But if I start the laptop without the light on the AC adapter and the power led on even with the, i.e. start with the battery as power, no matter how I move the power cord, the led on the AC adapter and the light, i.e. no charge. He stops until the battery drain.

    I believe that the AC adapter is good. But I have no idea why he has trouble in the light on the AC adapter and the power light on after to connect to the laptop.

    Dv6 had a somewhat similar problem that was treated with a BIOS upgrade. I watched the latest BIOS for your laptop and there is nothing about a problem of load, however. If it works very well and also a long time that you turn it on with the AC plugged in but only has a problem with loading when you connect the adapter Windows runs, I'm tempted to say that it is a software problem as a problem with Windows power management. Maybe if you remove the hard drive, power supply, switch it on with battery only, then plug the adapter when you run in a pre-Windows environment, we can see if the same problem occurs. If it was my cell phone, I would also like to do the update BIOS level, just to see if maybe it would affect something. I could also try to run it from a Linux Live disc any and see if the same problem occurs in another operating system. Last resort I would begin focusing on the issues of possible material, as a module of taking bad AC, which is an other replaceable part that requires no welding.
