VMware® Workstation 8.0.4 you will only be able to run 32-bit nested vMs

HI people,

I did a forum search tried a few things suggested previously, but not joy.

I get this error message

Virtualized intel VT - x /EPT is disabled for this machine virtual esx
you will only be able to run 32-bit nested vMs

=================================

The host OS is Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Edition, 64-bit 6.0.6002 Service Pack 2

VMware® Workstation 8.0.4 build-744019


The server is an HP ml350 g5 zeon 5420 cpu quad core server


history esx 5i was installed on bare metal, I formatted and installed server 2008 x 64 sp2


the bios is the last

and these bios options are set

Intel VT enabled,
and no. execute activated too memory.

==============

I understand that when these changes are made to the host should be recycled to power...


This bios like many others after record changes usually f10, the changes are made and this server restarts

is this normal?

don't know what means VMware by power cycle

I have disabled you options to see if I get an error that I saw the jpeg format

(called) when the vt is disabled in the bios

He talks about power cycle the host,

I have the new option that was just to see if the vmworkstation was reacting to the bios actullaly.

It has been.

============================================================


all this should be good as the tool VMware-comments 64check - 5.5.0 - 18463

reports

This host is capable of running an operating system of 64 comments

I ran it under this vmware product.when on my host Server 2008 x 64 sp2 enterprise.

=============================

I installed vmware workstion 8.0.4 on windows 2008 x 64 sp2 build-744019

then I installed esxi 5 all right

under custom options for the CPU, I chose Intel VT - x or Amd - V
==================================


but when I opened esxi 5

I get the error message #.

Virtualized intel VT - x /EPT is disabled for this machine virtual esx
you will only be able to run 32-bit nested vMs


so I tried this


Add the following line to C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware Workstation\config.ini:

hv.assumeEnabled = 'TRUE '.

I also put this line

hv.assumeEnabled = 'TRUE '.

C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\VMware\preferences.ini


but still the same question after stop downs and restarts too

I stop the physical server and restarts too

=======================================

= cpuid tool shows the processor is correct to because he had esxi 5 installed on bare metal before

My query

These settimgs are supposed to be done in the two files above and in brackets ""

must they be carried out before the esxi is actually installed in the workstation 8 or after.


SO IMHO workstation notice 8 is misinterpreted something on my hardware.

The ideas people?

I have tried several combinations but no joy...


Thank you

@all

Hmmmm...

so with the options checked in workstation should it work,.

(I tried it did not work)

I don't know if I still need the lines edited in two places during the use of this option?

and should it be done before that Esxi is installed in the workstation 8?

or is the line of editing out of place now?

Line editing is not relevant for your situation, since your CPU does not have the characteristics necessary for the virtualization of hardware support virtualized.

If this server supports Esxi 5 bare metal because it was installed when I got it...

First option get a processor that supports the corrrectly but if Intel specs are misleading where should I start... ???

under kernel options for this doc of quickspecs ML350 g5 Server

There are a variety of processors. any suggestions on one. ?

http://h18000.www1.HP.com/products/QuickSpecs/12475_na/12475_na.html#core%20Options

========================

None of these processors will help.  You need at least a CPU E55xx for HV virtualized.

Option 2) now on this bare metal Esxi 5 with this current processor can I install 64-bit clients? (guess I'll try soon) but I would like to know... all ideas welcome...

Yes, no problem.

should I just particularly setttings in ESXi5?

N °

All the options for me to set up a laboratory for vsphere upward with this as is, or with the new processor?

IMHO if not I could use 2 of these physical servers if I can get another assumption, that he would need to be the same?

to try they full of features of vsphere. like HA, Vmotion etc.

No, he would not have to be identical.  No matter what CPU Intel x 64 of this vintage, or later would be compatible with EVC (well well, with the exception of Atom).  You need only an identical processor for tolerance to failures.

  • PlayReady update was Incomplete.You will not be able to watch or record content protected until the is qualified. Everyone I have this same problem and found a solution?

    I clean installed 2 x times the RC of windows 7 pro x 64. Both times I got this error in media center. I manually downloaded the playready 1.3 program. I can record my channels satalite with no problems so I don't understand why he repeats the above message. However, I am worried that when the DRM updates for the satalite it won't work and I won't be able to update. I have not changed anything in the hardware level in the computer as so he wouldn't because he thinks it's another computer. Any help would be appreciated.

    Clarification on this: summer working on this issue for more than 2 months on 4 computers, that's what I found.

    Note: Not all the patches will work on a pc due to various stages of updates, patches, etc. No matter what anyone says or claims. What works for me, the other person or even technical support, may not be due to a strange configuration on your pc. Nevertheless, that's what I did on the final 3 computers that have no auto update of the readyplay.

    (1) get to the point in media center it says Readyplay failed to update, you want to try again.

    (OPTIONAL) Download the tool from Microsoft DRM Reset, change in Compatibility Mode for Windows 7 (or any version of Windows), run the tool as admin. He must install and say successful.

    (2) open Windows "Services" via the control panel > administrative tools > Services.

    (3) with Media Center open and show "the PlayReady update was incomplete. Do you want to retry? "Goto Control Panel"Services"you just opened and scroll all the way" Services Windows Media Center Receiver ", double-click it, and then click on"Stop ".

    4) navigate to the folder ReadyPlay HIDDEN (C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\PlayReady), and THEN Delete the mspr.hds file.

    (5) return to the OPEN & CONTINUES, Media Center and click 'Yes' and 'Next' to the question of the PlayReady update. He should immediately zip past and say update complete & you can watch and record copy-protected blah blah blah. It can also update a guide or something too.

    If this doesn't work for you after that 5-6 tests, you have something to another block you, but you don't have need for both 32 bit and 64 bit PlayReady installed to update. This is the 'Service' which is really prevents the update, but simply stop w/o those other steps do not work >.

    Good luck!

    If you install on a third computer, you will be asked to turn off this feature on the other two computers. You can then re-enable one of the two previous computers and use Cloud Creative apps on it.

  • Impossible to run/load 64 - bit OS in VMware Workstation 8

    I recently bought VMware Workstation 8.  It is installed on a laptop Lenovo T510 with 8 gigabytes of memory, Intel Virtualization is enabled in the BIOS.  I am running Windows 7 64-bit with all the service packs and hotfixes installed from this announcement on March 13, 2012.  My processor is a Mobile Core i7 620 m.

    I'm trying to load a 64-bit operating system, I'm able to succeed in creating the virtual machine.  However when I try to load the 64-bit operating system, I get the following message is displayed:

    Virtualization host is disabled in the BIOS/Firmware of host.

    With the help of virtualization with MMU software software.

    The above message is incorrect; I have virtualization enabled in BIOS.   I checked several times.

    Also, I get a window appears that displays the following text:

    Software virtualization is incompatible with the long mode on this platform.  Long mode off.  Without the support of the long mode, the virtual machine will not be able to run 64-bit code.  For more details, see: http://vmware.com/info?id=152.

    Please help me with this problem.

    Thank you

    Thanks a lot for your help.

    Sorry if I post in the wrong Thread.

    There are a few days ago a user had problems with 64-bit VM too well that VT has been activated. Perhaps the cause (and the resolution/workaround) are the same.

    According to Re: comments 8 and 64-bit Workstation bits in the vmware.log indicate that VT - x is turned on.

  • How to set an MTU of 1600 for test Lab at home for the NSX on Vmware workstation

    Hello.

    I'll set up a laboratory at home to build a laboratory to the NSX. I am running 3 on VMware Workstation 11 Esxi hosts. All three hosts of esxi run each 4 Ethernet adapters on them.

    To configure installation VXlan for my lab at home, I have modified the virtual machine's .vmx file and changed the vmxnet3 device and it works.

    Ethernet1. ConnectionType = "custom".

    Ethernet1.virtualDev = "e1000".

    Ethernet1.wakeOnPcktRcv = "FALSE".

    Ethernet1. AddressType = 'generated '.

    ethernet2. Present = 'TRUE '.

    ethernet2.VNET = "VMnet1.

    ethernet2. ConnectionType = "custom".

    ethernet2.virtualDev = "vmxnet3" - change to vmxnet3

    Adapter type VMxnet3 only is not supported for VMware workstation and also one of my hosts broke down several times with the low error message in the log file.

  • HELP me please, could not return to vm and crash of vmware workstation 7

    Help!

    I'm in deep problem with a virtual machine that does not work either... I'm disparate because I can't go to a previous snapshot.

    I have a machine t1500 dell with core i870, 16 GB of ram, nvidia quadro fx 512 mb graphics card, 500 gb hd, windows 7 pro 64-bit.

    In this machine wmware workstation 7 (latest version) is installed with autoprotect runs up to 10 daily snapshot.

    About 40 days, I converted two computers in vm... one with 32-bit vista and one with 32-bit xp.

    Every month the recent, everything works well... but yesterday all the vm was crushed because the space in my hd was full... so since the Snapshot Manager, I deleted some old snapshot.

    During the removal of a few shots, sometimes it shows me that he can't remove because the disc is always busy... but, but icon in the timeline of the Snapshot Manager went... go in the folder where I saved the files in vm, also failed in the Recycle Bin of windows.

    Once deleted, I try to turn it on again the vista 32 bit vm... aaaaahhhhhh, it does not start! and it remains pending mode... why!... If I try to take it back, all wmware workstation crash and I can only see a windows message error that vmware workstation has stopped working.

    Then I try to run the virtual machine with 32-bit xp and it work without any problem.

    Then I opened again snapshot manager and I try to use the function "go to...". "to recover a snapshot... ahhhhhh! nothing to do! It crash again!

    so I tried also to remove some files as described in this Ko... but not at all, it crash again!

    http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1003846

    HELP ME, PLEASE! I have all my projects in this machine is very important... If I lose the...

    OK, so it looks like us (you) lost snapshot sw2 - 000010.vmdk, which was created between March 1 and March 2.

    What we need to do now is to repair the broken chain instant (because of the missing original sw2 - 000010.vmdk) and create a clone of this disc. Snapshots 000043 and 000044 contain no data and can be ignored.

    What we need to do is:

    1.) to repair the chain instant (link sw2 - 000009.vmdk to sw2 - 000006.vmdk)

    • SW2 - 000009.vmdk backup since we need to modify this file
    • Copy the sw2 - 000009.txt attached to the virtual machine file
    • Copy dsfi.exe to the virtual computers folder
    • run: 'sw2 - 000009.vmdk' dsfi.exe 512 800 'sw2 - 000009.txt.

    2.) creating a clone

    • find a drive with enough free space on the drive on which the clone will be created!
    • run: "C:\Program Files (x 86) \VMware\VMware Workstation\vmware - vdiskmanager.exe «r - t 0 \sw2clone.vmdk C:\vm\sw2\sw2-000042.vmdk»»
    • Create a new virtual machine and attach the vmdk cloned (using existing disk) instead of creating a new disc
    • Before you start the virtual machine, create a snapshot where the clone has some corrupted data and you must go back to for example to fix this virtual disk to a helper VM or open it with the disk mounter utility.
    • run the chkdsk command to check that the disc is ok

    lol you can run 32-bit nested VM, but not 64-bit

    Since the products current VMWare does not virtualize the virtualization features assisted by the physical processor hardware (or controls segment limit of 64-bit AMD processors), you will be limited to the execution of 32-bit only nested If you use a binary translation under ESX as the guest

  • How to move the Virtual Machine VMWare Workstation 10 to a completely different computer

    I have a laptop that is going to become my 'old' laptop, I bought and am always set up a new computer.

    I have a VM THAT evolution created on the 'old' portable using VMWare Workstation 10.  I installed the software VMWare Workstation 10 on the new laptop computer and am ready to move to the existing VM development since the old laptop again to continue the development of software on the virtual machine to the new machine.

    I never moved a computer virtual from one computer to another, and I guess that all I have to do is to copy and move the folder and all its content from the old laptop to the new, and then I'll be back in business?

    Just make sure it is this simple before doing so.

    Thanks for any input.

    It's as simple as that. When you start in the new machine, it should ask if you copied or moved. Answer that you moved it will keep the same MAC address and you will not be able to connect the two copies at the same time. You copied it saying assigns a new MAC and they both can connect, but a Windows machine can ask to reactivate. Seems to me he asked also to reactivate when I copied it for an Intel system AMD system, but it was a long time ago
