VmWare Esxi 4.1 HP ML350 "cannot find image.

There is apparently a problem with the optical drive in the July 10 release support, HP of Esxi 4.1.

Iso in questions is: 4.1_July_2010_ESXi_HD_USB_SD_Image_Installer_CD_583772_005.iso

When you try to install this version of iso on a HP ML350 server with an optical drive manufactured by LGE and dated May 2010

installation fails with a "cannot find system error or by the image.

I got lucky to have several of these servers HP ML350 of recent fabrication available and I was able to determine that is a

Install ESXi 4.1 was attempted with a former player specifically TS-H353 manufactured February 2010, it installs successfully.  As long as this DVD player was used to install the iso above, everything worked correctly regardless of when the rest of the server was made.

In my humble OPINION, Vmware/HP needs to update Esxi 4.1 version to correct this hardware incompatibilities or compatibility list needs a caveat on this problem with the optical drive.

It should also be noted that when the player is put in a server with a front Esxi 4.1 install in place and working, the optical drive does not appear as a host\Linux device in the virtual customer.

Please note that I know that I have installed from USB or SD card, while that would have solved the problem of the installation, it only would have not corrected unable to mount the optical drive from the virtual Center host device.

I have attached the scans of the optical drive label.

We have exactly the same problem!

On all our new ML350 G6, we cannot install ESXi 4.1 HP (583772_005.iso) image on CD.

No idea, how we can solve this problem without use of external CD-CD-ROM-drives?

    Help, please. There is very little out there on ESXi 4. Even a pointer to VMware documentation with a list of error messages and their meaning/solutions would be helpful (unable to find such a list myself).

    I had the same problem that others are with the start-up for the drives. I went with the USB boot and it works very well because it has an internal USB port, it works even better because I'm not burn an external port. I use an older version of BIOS that does not start USB ports have enough fast for the key USB is recognized from a cold start *bummer* but not a big deal. Once this is done, I'm off the coast and run very well.

    I would recommend going this way until someone comes up with a better alternative, which I would be interested in doing.

  • Cannot find images moved by LR CC

    LR CC 2015.1.1 Release, iMac, OS X 10.10.4

    I spend all my images of an old external drive (Seagate) to a new (WD green RAID).   The problem is that LR is unable to find the new disk images when pointing in "LR find missing image dialogue."  Try again this seems to eliminate images in the LR catalog even if the images are still physically on the disc.

    Here are the steps I followed:

    (1) I copied the folder with the images on the new external drive and then eject the disc of moose.

    (2) I then open LR, pick a picture that was in the catalog and LR I want to find the missing image.

    (3) in the Finder, I clicked on the image in the new player: not only does LR not locate the image and the other in the same folder of date with her, but the other images in this folder, in which it is located are disappearing in the catalog.  In the Finder, the images are present where they should be.

    If I connect the original disc, LR finds the images in the original drive, but images that has disappeared from the catalog are still not present.

    Another detail: these new discs are in a double compartment in a RAID array, acting as a single driver.  I don't think that this is important for the problem, but of course I want to talk about any detail that may be involved.

    I also just closed, did a restart and repeated this process once.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.;

    Bob

    LR knows the difference between the files being moved and individual photos that is displaced. In this case, you need to 'find' the files moved to the folders Panel to find individual photos.

    If your files Panel does not show you the tree of folders as the fact finder, right-click on the background files and select "show parent". Repeat if necessary.

    Do the 'find' on the highest or the files that you moved. Then everything under / them should be managed automatically.

  • Cannot find a device supported to write image vmware esxi 4.1.0

    I have a Dell Poweredge R410 (service tag XXJ1FQ1) with a Raid 10 for PERC S300 controllers with 4X250GB drives.

    I downloaded the iso 4.1.0 ESXI and can boot from the DVD, but after agreeing to the terms. The installation program will fail and I get this error:

    «Could not find a device supported to write image VMware ESXI 4.1.0 to.»

    I checked the compatibility Web site: http://partnerweb.vmware.com/comp_guide2/detail.php?deviceCategory=server & productid = 4932 deviceCategory = server & partner = 23 & releases = 24 & keyword = poweredge % 20r410 & systemTypes = 2 & page = 4 & display_interval = 10 & sortColumn = Partner & sortOrder = CSA

    And my system should be OK.

    Has anyone experience this problem? And how to do this?

    Easy.  You cannot use the card s300.

    S300 work only in windows environments.  I also learned that the way lasts.  (Thanks Dell!)

  • Cannot install VMware ESXi 4.1 "cannot find the image of the installed system.

    Started in iso ESXi 4.1 downloaded, burned on a CD, CD, go to the screens, press F11 to install.  Immediately get the following error:

    -


    The installation operation failed!

    The installation operation encountered a fatal error:

    Cannot find the image of the installed system.  This is due to the image being not mounted correctly or the CD-ROM not supported.

    -


    The material is a system of handcrafted with Intel DQ35JO Council, latest version of the BIOS, Intel E6850 CPU, 8 GB of RAM, 2 SATA drives.  I know this isn't on the list compatible but is a 'white box '.  I installed ESXi 3.5 on it in the past and got it working, and I saw other success stories with this Board/CPU.  Yes, I have activated the virtualization mode in the BIOS and powered down/up.

    Here is what I tried:

    -Redownload VMware-VMvisor-Installer - 4.1.0 - 260247.x86_64.iso to ensure that it was not corrupt (2 copies, against perfectly)

    --Also tried another drive (IDE) CDROM

    -Created a bootable USB using uNetBootin 4.7.1 and booted from it

    -Switched SATA setting in the BIOS from AHCI to IDE

    I get the same exact error.  I searched here and everywhere and don't find any reference to this error.

    Help - all do you offer for my next step?

    Have you had a previous vSphere installed on your system?

    I had the same error on my 'white box' (in fact, it is black).  I used to run esxi 4.0 (u2) on my Acer X 3300 (6 GB, Quad Core AMD Athlon II).  Controllor internal SATA is not supported, but it allows me to use the box for normal windows task and ESXi is sitting on a SDHC 4 GB flash card.

    When I started my freshly burned ESX4.1 cdrom, I got the same error.   I thought that the fact that maybe there was an existing install on my destination drive (the flash memory card), and that the CD could not perform an upgrade.

    So, I tried the upgrade path (first trying to utility of the host and the .xml error message).  After reading the manual, I did the upgrade from 4.0 to 4.1 using the device of vMA and I must say that esxi 4.1 works great on my white box.

    Then I suggest that you try upgrading and see how far that gets you.

    Good luck (and a beautiful weekend)

  • Cannot assign a license to VMware ESXi 5.0 hosts

    Dear all,

    I installed vCenter Server 5.0 standard IBM x 3550 M4 and VMware ESXi 5.0 Standard for two M4 IBM 3650 x servers. I can attribute vCenter Server Standard 5 license to vCenter Server 5.0 but I can't affect VMware vSphere 5 Standard licenses for both ESXi 5.0 servers. Each server has 2x6Cores 2.3 GHz CPU (12 cores total). VMware vSphere 5 licenses that we purchase are VMware vSphere 5 Standard for 1 processor (VS5-STD-C) x 12, which is unlimited cores per processor. Can someone tell me what is the problem here and the reason why I still can't assign license to two 5.0 ESXi hosts.

    Rgds,

    Syairus

    If I understand correctly you have 12 licenses for 1 CPU each! In order to assign a license to a host of the CPU, the license capacity must be equal to or greater than the number of the host CPU. You can combine licenses in the portal My VMware.

    BTW. for two host with 2 CPU each, you need only 4 licenses of CPU (not 12), as processors/sockets are allowed, not carrots.

  • Cannot import Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 with Hyper-V virtual machines to VMware ESXi 4.

    Hi team,

    I use VMware vCenter Converter Standalone to import certain Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 with Hyper-V virtual machines to VMware ESXi 4, using another Windows Server 2008 R2 as the machine Agent Converter. Well, the agent connects to the Windows VM source very well (I used the net use command to create a line of conduct...), perhaps no chance to connect to the computer target VMware ESxi 4 and make the converter doesn't work...

    Following is the error message:

    "Unable to connect to the host specified" from the converter agent machine. " It is perhaps because the host is not available on the network, there is a problem with the network configuration or management on this host services do not react. Check all components of converter to be able to connect.

    So, my question is; is it possible to create a work around (like the net use Windows command above) to make possible the connection of the converter Agent on Linux VMware ESXi 4 machine Windows machine, to directly import the virtual machines of Windows Hyper-V to Linux VMware?

    Thanks in advance,

    It's even easier than that

    Use this: http://www.winimage.com/

    Which will convert *.vhd *.vmdk, so you don't need to do all this... Of course, another way is to start the machines, leaving them on Hyper-V and go through the network and process virtual machine as physical machines and do a P2V on the network...

    Network configuration / routing / two network interface cards / NAT - leased / dedicated Dell R210 running VMware ESXi 5.1.0 build-799733

    Hello

    I'm trying to understand how to configure a dedicated server of Dell R210 rented running VMware ESXi 5.1.0 build-799733

    This dedicated server is rented www.online.net and sits somewhere in France. One of its network adapters have an IP public 62.210.177.20x. The other NIC is here, but I do not understand how it is configured. According to the www.online.net portal, the other NETWORK card has or should have an IP 10.90.116.20x. And I am obviously set up is to have some virtual machines running and be able to access the Internet. I have access to the console of the server Dell through iDRAC and since I could see, one of the network adapters in the IP is 62.210.177.20x defined, and the other has been shown out of service. I managed to make it appear the other interface but I cannot find anywhere how to assign the IP address 10.90.116.20x to this 2nd network adapter. But then again I don't even know if I should or if I need to assing a IP address to this 2nd network adapter. What is the cable connected even for this 2nd NIC? I do not know. Should it be - I'm not either. I don't know French and manuals/instructions on www.online.net are in French. I can try an online translator, but I don't think that what I'm looking for is explained. How do I get this set up? I have to do something about the ESXi on the server console? This interface 2nd should be in place, or it must be down as if it was originally? Yesterday after watching someone videos on YouTube, I added the second virtual switch and moved the virtual hosts of this switch 2 and he entrusted the 2nd NIC. But that 2nd NIC had a red X next to it probably indicating that it was disconnected the 2nd form virtual switch. Today and now I have managed to access the ESXi console server through iDRAC, I bring the 2nd NIC, and now both network adapters are assigned to the virtual switch 1st . But I think that a NIC should be attributed to a single switch and the other card NETWORK on the 2nd switch. I'm just a desktop guy with enough knowledge to be dangerous J if you / someone put in steps how and where to set them up it... PLEASE

    Thanks in advance

    • VMware vSphere Hypervisor is an "operating system" for pure virtualization and support NAT or routing. Therefore, only a real bridge configuration can be used.
    • To use a subnet additional IP must be configured as a router VM.

    If I understand the above, I need to show some VM and set up as a router? If the virtual machine that will act as a router must have two network interfaces, where it is connected to a switch and the other to the other switch network card. Am I do? The YouTube video that suggested, but I thought that maybe / somehow ESXi can route packets between the two network cards, but from what I read, ESXi can route packets. Do I need to order an additional / extra / 2nd IPv4 address so that it can be assigned to the interface of the router?
