VMware workstation 8.0 OS not found

I am using Vcenter converter std 5.0 only to convert vhd image vmdk image, create the new virtual machine using vmware Workstation 8. But window 2003 server fail to initialize. Error message "operating systems" not found CD/DVD setting pointing to the w2k3test.vmdk picture. Please help me solve the problem.

Thank you very much

Gan

As I said in my previous post, the VMDK file is the virtual HARD DISK, not an ISO image!  Do not point the CD-ROM drive to the vmdk file - it will only complicate things.  The vmdk file must be set on the hard disk.

    Hello

    Instead of queryReferences(), use the queryIdRecords() method.

    RefRes ReferenceResult = queryService.queryIdRecords (QueryRecordType.ADMINORGVDC);

    {for (RecordResult RV: {refRes.getRecords ())}
    If (vr.getName () .equals (vdcName)) {}
    VCC = Vdc.getVdcById (admin, vr.getId ());

    }

    In this way don't worry about whether the returned reference (containing href, mediatype and name) is API-API/Admin user.

    ORGVDC - request user Org/tenant - this will not work if you are a user/Admin Org.

    ADMINORGVDC - query the system Admin user - this will not work if you are a system administrator.

    Kind regards

  • VMware View Manager admin page not found

    Hello!

    I just installed VMware see connection to the server, and I am trying to open http://localhost/admin but the page is not found!

    What service use this webservice? (I can't find it under services)

    Any ideas?

    (I installed the version 4.5 on a Windows 2003 R2 and the installation was successful)

    VMware View component framework provides the event logging, security and services COM + framework for View Manager. This service must be running for the proper functioning of View Manager.

    One more note, you cannot connect to the Administrator display via a Web browser when the SSL setting for your customers to view is not compatible with the URL that you use to connect to view administrator. If you disable the SSL parameter, you can not use the https protocol in the URL.

    Have you tried https://localhost/admin instead of http://localhost/admin?

  • Why does not turn VMware Workstation in a less than authorized VMware Workstation OS prompt, if not supported?

    Hey

    IM wondering why isn't VMware Workstation must be installed and running (with virtual machines) on a guest operating system in VMware Workstation... I understand if it is not supported (such as it is running a virtual machine on a virtual machine that could be run on another virtual machine... you get the point), but at least allow him...

    When you try to turn on a virtual computer, we check the existence of the backdoor in a process that runs at CPL 3 and IOPL 0 VMware.  If we find the VMware backdoor, we refuse to let turn on the nested VM.  The vmx.allowNested configuration option to bypass this check.  However, if you have restricted the backdoor to the guest code that runs with IOPL > = CPL (using the option monitor_control.restrict_backdoor to the external virtual machine), then we can't find the door VMware backdoor, and we let you turn the nested in any case virtual machine.  Thus, if the external virtual machine is set up correctly, you don't need the vmx.allowNested option.

    In future versions, we can also check to see if you are running under some other hypervisor that announces its presence through pieces of CPUID feature.  If so, we will refuse to turn on the nested VM.  In this case, you will need the vmx.allowNested option to circumvent these controls.

  • VMWare Fusion 4: vmrun command not found

    Hello

    I upgraded my VMWare Fusion since version 3 to version 4. I used the installer of VMware-Fusion - 4.0.2 - 491587 - light .dmg

    Now I'm not able to run vmware via vmrun command in the terminal. On the audit "/ Library/Application Support/Vmware Fusion", the only thing I see is a license file (license-merger-30-e1-...). So that in Version 3, there was formerly several packages including vmrun. I used to specify the path to this folder to run vmrun and never faced any problem with Fusion 3. Where will I get vmrun in Fusion 4?

    The details of my system are:

    MAC OS - 10.6.8

    VMware Fusion - 4.1.1 (536016)

    Plese help me in using vmware to the terminal is very important for my scripts.

    Thank you

    Hi, kamalik.
    vmrun is in a 'VMware Fusion.app' bundle package.
    / Applications/VMware Fusion.app/Contents/Library/
    In the Finder, ctrl-click(or right click) the bundle 'VMware Fusion.app', then select 'Show Package Contents '.
    A Finder window should open displaying the contents of the package "VMware Fusion.app".
    All the best.
  • VMWare Workstation 10 Image does not power on

    Hi RockstarAv8rand welcome to the VMware communities!

    You are experiencing exactly the same problem as I have been diagnosed for another user of the forum, a few days ago.

    Try the instructions I have at this other thread and see if that gets your virtual machine going again: VMware opens and quickly closes a virtual machine

    Also created this virtual machine using VMware Converter?

  • Workstation 8 vmware-workstation-server works not not on Ubuntu 11.10

    Hi people:

    Just, I have upgraded my Ubuntu 10.10 to 11.10 and replaced VMWare Server 2.0 with Workstation 8.02.  It seems that the vmware-workstation-server service is not running.  I'm unable to connect from a web page and the application vmware itself is not able to connect.  When I try to activate the dialog application vmware service I get the following messages in the terminal window where I ran vmware:

  • Failed to create virtual machine using VMWare Workstation 11 (test)

    Hello people,

    I installed VMWare Workstation on my machine Windows 10 and trying to create multiple virtual machines to test the object. I have done this before on the Windows 7 computer and did not face any problems, but this time, as soon as I gave the location of the file to deploy an operating system it comes up with some fatal errors as error BLK_CACHE IOERR if I have enough space on the HARD drive and everything is not going further. So, my question is if my computer has compatible with Windows 10 problems or there is something else that would cause this problem. Any help or comments would be appreciated on this topic.

    Thank you!.

    Thanks for your answer, Noel

    I was going through discussions in the community with similar and found subjects that VMWare had released 12 pro workstation that supports Windows 10 entirely. I personally installed it on my physical machine and it works. Here is the link for the release of Workstation 12 notes.

    Hello

    I m new technology Vmware Esxi. I will join the formation of VCP5 next month. But before participating in this training, I would take it somewhere on the same experience. So, for this, I install Vmware workstation 7 on my home PC. I have install Esxi 3.5 server on one machine virtual workstation.

    I just edit the machine configuration file virtual vmware [C:\Documents and Settings\a48923\My Documents\My Machines\Esxi virtual-01] as shown below which is marked in "BOLD" letter.

    After you change the configuration file. I started the Esxi server. But when booting, it shows lmdriver failed to load. When I tried to configure the Exsi network, the back always prompt to reset the default settings of the network. Then I searched the internet, I found this machine NIC not to support Esxi. Is there a way to configure the Microsoft loop back adopter or any virtual adopter for esxi? So that I can install several esxi server on a single machine on vmware workstation and can be communicate with each other.

    With VMware Workstation 7 you should not need to manually configure the .vmx file. Create a new custom virtual machine and select ESX as the guest operating system. This will configure the virtual material suitable as an E1000 network adapter...

  • installation of vmware workstation 6.5 on windows 10 error

    After you install vmware workstation 6.5 on windows 10 it gets error and restart. Is vmware workstation 6.5 support windows 10? FAILED TO INSTALL. vmware workstation 6.5 on windows 8, 8.1 and 10 support. ALL SUPPORT. I still don't understand...

    VMware Workstation 6.x do not support Windows 10 and will never support Windows 10.

    VMware Workstation 6.x reached "end of support" four years, October 1, 2011: Matrix.pdf product lifecycle

    We produce updates for release until its date of "end of support".  A product may not work properly with host OSes, processors or comments OSes that are not compatible with the product, especially the things that have been published after the date of "end of support".  We put a huge amount of effort to ensure that new hardware and operating systems works with each new major release of VMware Workstation, but we cannot go back and update any previous version of product to add support for all hardware and operating systems more recent.  If we tried to do this, VMware Workstation cost much more that it is today, simply because of the amount of work required to maintain!

    You need to upgrade your installation of VMware Workstation to something more recent, or downgrade your host operating system to a version compatible with VMware Workstation 6.5.

    I hope this helps!

  • Win XP host gets restart everything install Windows 8 comments in VMWare Workstation 9.01

    Hello

    I have a machine that running Windows XP SP3 with 2 GB (DDRII) of RAM with Intel Core 2 E7400 2.80 GHz processor. I want to test Winodws 8 before you install on this machine. I have download and install VMWare Workstation 9.01. Then I rebooted my system and went into my BIOS and put the "No.-Execute memory Protection" 'Activate' and the system boots.

    AnthonyL25

    I think that if the goal here it to test Windows 8 then I uninstall VMware Workstation 9 and try VirtualBox and see if this causes the same question.  Another thing you can do is give it a try on your host using Memtest86RAM, or similar, to make sure that's not a problem with bad RAM to a greater address then you normal would not not a VM running.   If RAM tests OK and works of VirtualBox, you can always try an earlier version of VMware Workstation, but I think not v7 supports Windows 8 as a guest.  I've used VirtualBox for Windows 8, and it worked very well!
