VMware server 2.0 - cannot import vmware images for inventory

I reinstalled my server from scratch (Ubuntu 8.04, 64-Bit including VMware server 2.0 build 122956).

The installation program is fine and I can access my server with the VI 2.5 client. Unfortunately, I can't import my virtual machines through the VI client. The manual States that should be a link named "add the Virtual Machine to inventory. Unfortunately, I can only create new ones or enter maintenance mode (in the command window).

I have just nownoticed that the web front end to VMware server offers this option.

Therefore, it is no more a question but could someone else help to find a quick answer to his problem.

With your host selected in the left pane, right-click on the data store and select "Browse datastore" (see screenshot). Find the .vmx file, right click and select "add to the inventory.

If your virtual machines are not in the 'standard' default data store, copy them or create a new data store that includes the folders with your virtual machines.

  • Cannot import the image of the panorama - file too big

    I try to import a panorama image in jpeg format. The size is 437 MB and 49745 x 14786 pixels. When I select the image to be imported, Lightroom 6 fails with the error message: file too big.

    What is the problem? I thought the max image size is much higher? 300000 x 300000 pixels? What can I do to fix this? I am running Windows 7, 64 bit.

    The maximum file size is 64 k pixels from the edge of the longest (so OK there), or a maximum size of 512 million pixels, the lowest being retained. I think that your file is more than 700 million pixels, which makes it too big for Lightroom.

  • Server connected but cannot use the images?

    Hi all.  I'm new to DW, but up to now I implemented a Basic .css file, and I am using images from my server, who said that it is connected successfully, but when I try to change my background image, the server button is not clickable.  How to use images which I know that I'm connected to my server?

    Don't know why you use all the

    background-attachment: fixed;

    remove that header and the image of the poster.

    Also on the index page footer isn't in the 'wrap '... I'm sure you want inside.

    CSS for content is not be parsed properly due to the double right hook just before the contained styles:

    make-weight: bold;

    }

    }

    #content {}

    remove the second hook closing and the css reads very well to me.

  • Cannot import the image of my document file

    I can't draw a picture all friom my folder of documents to the image file in dreamweaver. I follow the steps, but it does not load in the image folder to allow me to drag the image to the place I want it on the page. I could do it before but having a mental block or a "blonde moment"! When I did the short training on dreamweaver the teacher kept flying in all directions on how to do things a lot of the info is mixed. I'd appreciate any help possible because it's a good thing to learn and do. Thank you.

    > I'm unable to attract an image all my documents folder friom the

    If I understand, you want to use an image that is not currently in this
    Folder from the Local Site to site?

    a way - click the icon insert a picture in the Insert bar.
    Navigate where the picture is and select it. When you click OK; Dreamweaver
    should popup a warning dialog box that the image is not within the Site. Don't you
    you want to copy it? Click Yes.

    Another way to abandonment of dreamweaver and go to the image file on the hard drive
    drive. Move or copy to the Local Site folder location.
    Then go back to dreamweaver and insert it.

  • Import of image for Timelapse sequences

    I'm having issues importing a sequence of images to make a timelapse.  It seems easy and simple, but when I check the box "Image Sequence" import, I always get only the importation of single image.  I don't know there is something small, I'm on.  Does anyone else have this problem?

    Yep, I'm doing as well.  I just went through and gave the sequence a convention of shorter term and for some reason any that worked!  They were properly sorted before, but the naming convention must have been too long.

    Thanks for your comments!

  • Import / creating images for other documents

    I regularly use a logo .eps file. I have a black and a white separately registered version to use, depending on the context, the logo happens. However, I would be able to apply the color chart / content of the logo at will.

    Is there a way to save the eps in a vector format that allows it to be imported as a frame so I can choose a fill color or fill it with text / do it transparent?

    The only way I can see to achieve several colors of this one is to edit in Illustrator so have multiple copies - it becomes a pain when light settings for the logo and having to update more than one version.

    Thanks in advance...

    First of all, I highly recommend you use format HAVE rather than EPS (an obsolete format except if archaic part of your workflow requires it).

    I can't imagine a way to do exactly what you want, where the tracks are 'live' in InDesign but remain linked to those in the original logo file. But with HAVE a file, you might have different versions of color on different layers in Illustrator and change Options for the graphic placed in InDesign object layer. Color it in InDesign, or to use it as a text frame, the paths should be copied and pasted into your document of identity, which would break the link to the original logo file.

  • I can run a VMWare image create under Windows or Linux, in Fusion?

    I used VMWare for Windows and Linux for years. I am a software developer and have a separate VMWare image for each customer.

    I'm moving to a platform of Apple (macbook Pro and strongly recommend to my classmates...) for my development efforts and was wondering if I can run my existing images in Fusion.

    You would think that by now, then you know it's VMware not "VMWare".

    wonder if I can run my existing images in Fusion.

    Yes, however if there are names of full qualified path to the configuration of the Virtual Machine's .vmx file, they need to be adjusted accordingly.

  • import an image in a pdf form

    Students must be able to import an image for their P.E. lessons. For the Organization of the lesson. These images can be pdf/jpg/png. Is it possible to do a field that would allow this?

    If he has to work with the player, and then students must use Reader 11 (XI) or DC (Windows/Mac only) and the photos must be in PDF format. To set up the field to import the PDF file, create a button and on the Options tab of the field properties dialog box, set the Layout tab "Icon only" and add a mouse in JavaScript that is Actions:

    Mouse in JavaScript for a button

    event.target.buttonImportIcon ();

    When the button is clicked, the user will be asked to select a page in a PDF file to use as the icon of the button. Acrobat users will be able to select any format Acrobat knows how to convert to PDF format, which includes the common image formats.

    This is barebones requirements and you can refine things by implementing the scaling options (Options tab > Advanced button), add additional JavaScript code to handle the errors and for discount vacuum or adding a separate button to trigger the import in the image display button. Post again if you need further information.

  • You use an image for multiple clients

    Hello

    After a lot of research because my brain would allow, I discovered that I can't let ONE client to use a single image and that if I wanted to do several customers use this same image I have to redownload the image (the license) or a licence.

    My question is: If I had to get a license on an image how many of my clients would be able to use this image even on their Web site? And all the images offer an extended license?

    Thank you in advance for your help!

    Matthew

    Hi Matthew

    Please check that the conditions of licence concerning the customer use - section 3.5 here - http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/legal/servicetou/Adobe_Stock_Terms-en_US_20160616 .pdf

    http://www.Adobe.com/content/dam/ACOM/en/legal/servicetou/Adobe_Stock_Terms-en_US_20160616 .pdf

    An extended license, you cannot use the image for the benefit of several clients.  You will need to license for each customer that you want to use the image for the image.

    Information on the extended licenses are also provided in the terms of the license.

    Kind regards

  • VMware 6.5.5 cannot import the virtual machine that uses 2GB "disks of split.

    Hello

    I'm using VMware Workstation 6.5.5 under Win XP. I tried to import a virtual machine that was created by using the option 'Split' virtual disks into files of 2 GB. The import fails and presents a pop-up: ' Conversion Assistant/cannot determine the guest operating system. The log file includes the line "could not find the disk cofortcol3v01 - cl1.vmdk. This file does not exist of course, there are more files cofortcol3v01-cl1 - s001.vmdk, cofortcol3v01-cl1 - s002.vmdk and so on. The machine virtual original (cofortcol3v01) has been created under VMware Workstation 5.1, and it does not under Workstation 6.5.5.

    Is this a known problem in the conversion utility? Is there a work around for this problem?

    Thank you.

    -Phil Anzel

    FYI... VMware Workstation peut import a Virtual Machine that uses twoGbMaxExtentSparse discs.

    The log file includes the line "could not find the disk cofortcol3v01 - cl1.vmdk. This file does not exist of course, rather there are files cofortcol3v01-cl1 - s001.vmdk, cofortcol3v01-cl1 - s002.vmdk and so on. The machine virtual original (cofortcol3v01) has been created under VMware Workstation 5.1, and it does not under Workstation 6.5.5.

    Is this a known problem in the conversion utility? Is there a work around for this problem?

    The problem is that you're missing the "disk DescriptorFile", "cofortcol3v01 - cl1.vmdk" and which is why it's a failure and not a limitation of the Conversion utility.

    Also if you actually had a Virtual Machine created in VMware Workstation 5.1 you can simply run directly under VMware Workstation 6.5.5 without having to run the import command.

    Anyway, if you have a backup that you can recover the file "cofortcol3v01 - cl1.vmdk" then you should be fine and if you have not then a new can be created.  If you can archive (compress) files vmware*.log (usually 4 of them) in a single zip file archive and tied him to a post in response, then one of us will create a new file "cofortcol3v01 - cl1.vmdk", based on the information contained in files vmware.log for you, if you don't know how to do it yourself.

  • 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)

  • need help to set the access rights of a vmware server 2.0.1 on vmware image

    Hello!

    I have a vmware (running ubuntu server 9.04) image that was created with a vmware server installation varsion 1.0.9. now I decided to upgrade to the host, which means that the host totally changed: new equipment, new OS, new vmware-server-version: 2.0.1

    My problem atm is, I may not know, what would be the appropriate access rights (chown/chmod) for this vmware image. during the installation of vmware server 2.0.1 I was asked to specify some 'administrative user' where I took the an im working with Linux itself (lets call it "user").

    so, when I copied the old vmware image in the data store (/ var/lib/vmware/VirtualMachines for me), chown-ed the folder including all files init by A, setting chmod to something like 600, the console vmware (web surface) told me that there were several problems with the image and couln can't be started etc. etc. etc...

    I played with several rights to the image and the only thing that seemed to help was setting the folder and all files included in 'root' with the command chmod chown '777'... not what I would call 'secured '.

    so: how to set the access rights for the virtual machines? I want that they have only minimal rights as possible and especially nothing like root: 777...

    My static VM files, as in those who are not dynamically created when the virtual machine starts, are the property of root, root of group with permissions of 711. Root is the user that I have chosen as the admin user when you run vmware - config.pl. My users do not have direct access to this server, so I'm not too worried about the permissions. You can give different rights for different users to different virtual machines, creating roles and their allocation to users/groups. On that, the details are in Chapter 10 of the user guide - http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vmserver2.pdf.
