• VMWare Workstation license

  I think to buy VMWare Workstation, so I can test Windows 2008 R2 on my home PC (don't have a new server yet).   If I buy VMWare workstation can only use this license for a single host or I can use it for multiple hosts.

  I would like to install on my laptop and my office if possible... hoping that this does not mean that I need two licenses.

  Thank you

  Mike

  Install Workstation on the host that you use most of the time to work with virtual machines.

  On all other computers, install the free VMplayer.

  Both products are directly compatible Exchange you the virtual machines from one host to the host no matter if this host run VMplayer or workstation

• Issue of license VMware Workstation and VMplayer

  Hi all:

  
  

  Can anyone help to answer this question.  Thank you in advance.

  
  

  I have a valid license of VMware Workstation 9, can VMware Workstation and the VMplayer separately install on two computers and use them in business environment?

  The VMware Player delivered in the Installation of VMware Workstation is not separable from the installation of VMware Workstation or VMware Workstation license.  If you want to run VMware Player by itself then you must download the VMware Player installer, which installs only VMware Player not VMware Workstation.  You cannot cut files VMware Workstation installed between two systems.  So if you want to use it commercially you must buy a license of VMware Fusion!

  I hope that now this is clear enough for you to grab!

• Evaluation of VMware Player license

  After testing on VMware Player 5, I also tested VMware Workstation 9 in order to get a grip on the differences. When I did uninstalled Workstation and install VMware Player 5 again. I now VMware Player (trial license) at the top of my VMware Player window. This isn't right? What will happen after the expiry of the period 'assessment? I will be able to use VMware Player?  Unstall and reinstall after a workstation installation seem to screw up the terms of the software license.

  Clues?

  VMware Player 5 appears as follows:

  VMware Player
  VMware Player (license expired)
  VMware Player (trial license)
  VMware Player (Non-commercial use only)

  The first 'VMware Player' means that it is authorized for commercial use and a valid serial number has been entered.  The other three should be explicit.

  If you have used VMware Workstation with the 30 day free trial serial number and uninstalled and serial number has not yet expired and install you VMware Player 5 I would expect it to appear as 'VMware Player (trial license)' because the VMware Workstation license key is still in the Windows registry.  It is located at [\VMware Workstation\License.ws.9.0.e1.201202 HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VMware, Inc.] and this withdrawal must make VMware Player 5 display as "VMware Player (Non-commercial use only).  As always make sure that you have proper backups before editing the Windows registry and or at least save the key to the target before deleting.

• WinRunner license with VMware Workstation

  Evaluate us VMware Workstation 10.0 and we try to install Winrunner on a virtual machine but the Winrunner trying to get out to the network on the virtual machine to find the license competition, every time, we have created (OS Win 7), installation is suspended. The error indicates the installation Winrunner is unable to find the license on the network.

  Verified that the network is in place and works very well. Check that the license exists on the network (installed on another computer to test using a ghost image). Anyone got any ideas on why installing Winrunner can not find the license?

  Concerning

  Your guest VM is configured to use NAT or Bridged network mode?  Not sure if it would be serious, but it is possible - if it's NAT - the license service is unable to return to the virtual machine.

• Is it possible to transfer everything to a virtual hard disk that is smaller on a virtual hard disk that is larger in VMWare Workstation, using the same virtual machine?

  Hello

  I was wondering if it is possible to transfer everything to a virtual hard disk that is smaller on a virtual hard disk that is larger in VMWare Workstation, using the same virtual machine? In the affirmative, please could someone advise me on how to do it. Also utility management and disk transfer can be used in virtual machines to do this?

  Thank you very much

  Tim Auluck

  I'm not sure what exactly you are asking. Can you please clarify!

  Basically you can resize a virtual drive or add a second virtual disk to a virtual machine and transfer/copy files. You can also resize the virtual disk using VMware Converter for example.

• VMWare Workstation - clone an image but not the OS license?

  I have Windows 7 and 2008 and images Linux VMWare Workstation fully licensed, with additional products installed and configured with data for a demonstration complex.  I can't give a partner (that is outside my company) because I don't have a license for redistribution of OS, so I was wondering if it is possible to make a sort of clone of my image into an image VMWare the BP prepared as fully licensed, without crushing for example the Windows license info , so not a clone of bit for bit full.  For Linux, I think I could make rsync between two images, but how can I do this on Windows with its registry etc. ?

  first to clone then boot from a cloned image & changes made again a clone

• Is it possible to license VMware workstation without an internet connection?

  I have a Linux server that is heavy to move and from a connection internet on which I need to install VMware workstation. I have a license key. Is it possible to install and license of VMware workstation without being connected to the internet?

  If so, how is that possible?

  Thanks for any help,

  Hughster

  on a host with inet download the bundle with tools - put on a CD.

  on the isolated just host install then from CD and enter the serial number when he asked

  you only need inet connection in case you download a package without the vmware-tools

• Unable to Boot PXE under VMWare Workstation

  Note: This is a LABORATORY environment!

  I have 2 servers

  SRV1 - DHCP, ADDS

  SRV2 - WDS

  Both are installed in VMWare Workstation 12 and is assigned to a Segment named "Server LAN" local network.

  I have 2 Workstation

  WKS1 - no BONES and Belonged to a local Network Segment named "LAN Workstation"

  WKS2 - with OS (Win8) and Belonged to a local Network Segment named "LAN Workstation"

  1 Virtual router connected both the Segment of LAN 'Server LAN' and 'LAN workstation.

  Virtual router is configufed for transfer/DHCP relay.

  I can say that the DHCP relay works because WKS2 can get an ip address from the SRV1 when starting Windows 8. However, WKS1 and WKS2 in PXE startup I get this message.
  

  Any ideas?

  I solved the problem, it turns out that option 66 and 67 was not configured in my DHCP for the scope that has been maintaining the "LAN workstation.

  I have configured the DHCP in SRV1

  Option 66 for point on my WDS server.

  

  and Option 67 to point to the 64-bit version of wdsnbsp.com in the wds server.

  

• The upgrade from VMware Workstation 12: can I install above?

  So I just bought a license to upgrade to workstation 12. Now, I noticed that it is (finally) 64-bit native. However, 11 Workstation is native 32-bit. Can I just install VMware Workstation 12 top like I did the upgrade from 10 to 11? Because the 10 and 11 were native 32-bit.

  The question is moot.
  Upgrade has always meant uninstall the old version, install the new version.
  If you do it yourself, you have more control, but the results will be the same.

  The safest option is: uninstall manually - reboot - check registry for services that have not been removed - if necessary, repair registry - restarts again and then install the new version right after the restart.

• How to do a complete uninstall of VMWare Workstation 10 Buggy?

  Hello

  I bought and installed VMWare Workstation 10 about a year using the education license.

  A few months ago, I tried to reinstall VMWare Workstation because it had been destabilised by a question about my PC. But when I tried to uninstall the software, it arises repeatedly with the following error message:

  The MSI "failed.

  The path of the folder "Shared Virtual Machines" contains an invalid character.

  I tried to fix it, but to no avail. Finally, I decided to manually uninstall VMWare ranging in all directories, I knew where was installed at VMWare and remove files.

  It did not always work because of all the registry keys related to VMWare.

  At this point, I would like to do a complete uninstall of VMWare Workstation, and then perform a new installation on my computer.

  Would it be possible to know the procedure should I follow to remove all information related to VMWare on my computer (key of registry, files, dll, etc.) and then reinstall it?

  Any resource in this regard would be really appreciated.

  Where this might be necessary, my computer is running Windows 8.1 Pro on an Intel i7 x 64 CPU.

  Thanks in advance!

• Thinking of buying VMware Workstation

  What happens if I buy VMware Workstation and intsaller, then my hard drive goes down.  Am I allowed to install again on a new hard drive?  Are related to a SN license keys any CPU or something on the main Board or are they related to the hard drive?

  Thank you

  Greg

  I'm not aware of any restrictions, except using the license on one host at a time. If the host/disc breaks down, simply re - install VMware Workstation and enter the license key. If you want or need to install VMware Workstation on another host, uninstall the current host, and install it on the other.

• Virtual MACHINE created on VMWare Workstation for Windows - move to VMWare Workstation for Linux?

  I have a bunch of VMs that I built using VMWare Workstation for Windows running on a Win2003 Server 7.1.3. The virtual machine is running Windows XP sp3. Can I move these Ubuntu VM to run under VMWare for Linux, if I buy a license for the current version or any version?

  Thank you

  Yes, but with some reservations.  Of course, Windows and Linux use different ways to represent the paths and devices so a few changes to the virtual machine may be necessary.  All that is hard coded in the configuration file .vmx depicting the paths of type Windows and device names must be changed by the GUI settings or manually edit the .vmx config file.  In addition any virtual machine containing snapshots where the parentFileNameHint in the DescriptorFile of disc, so drowned in a monolithicSparse or the first measure not binary snapshot virtual hard drive, which uses a QPF (fully qualified path name), it will have to be changed.  If you are unsure how to do this then I suggest a delete all snapshots before moving on to another system.

  A Windows VM that fall under the WPA will in all likelihood have to be reactivated if the host CPU are not in the same class.

  If you copy a Windows VM for the delivery of a copy on the source system, that you must have and or get the appropriate number of licenses and or product keys for the copy number you keep.

• Questions to install VMware Workstation

  Hello everyone and thank you for your interest in my post.  For the last 6 months I spent reviewing messages to build and run a secure Channel 5 on a laboratory at home and collected a lot of information.  Budget delays I am not near my goal I thought I'd be so I thought I would get something on my current equipment with VMware Workstation.

  I got a 64 bit Windows 7 with Intel I7 processor gaming computer and wanted to add Workstation 8 or 9 now that it is out.  Finally, I would like to build some virtual labs, but now want to get running in the virtual world.

  Help for the following questions would be appreciated.

  1 install Workstation 8 on a Windows 7 64 bit computer or do a clean install on the computer and run a Windows 7 as a virtual machine?

  If a clean install Workstation 8 or 9 is recommended how could I get my image of Windows 7 today converted to a virtual machine before the clean install?

  Guess the question would be, is I there a VM tool that can convert an image of current computer hardware in a virtual machine so that I can run on a new installation of VMware Workstation 9?

  2. what steps should be taken to migrate from a hardware configuration to a configuration of the VM on the same box?

  3. what risks are there to lose data?

  4. what license issued or limitations can I exect meet when I create several virtual machines, alias windows, Linux and others?  Can you build and run several different VMS at the same time?

  5. return to the VM tools, I know on the side of Vsphere there are tools to create virtual machines for ESXi, but what tools are there for Workstation 8 or 9 build and run virtual machines?

  That ye may know that my training and the ability to understand your answers I was in the field of information technology since 1990.  Currently, I am a network engineer and have experience as a non-virtuelle system administrator installs computer and server and operation.

  Thanks again to all who help out.  I hope that once I get the speed I can contribute to the community as well.

  Since you are a "Network Engineer and have experience as a system administrator" then IMO shouldn't really ask!   How hard is it to type 'physical to virtual' in Google and get to VMware vCenter Converter?  Also read the documentation on it as well as VMware Workstation!   Yes I know you said "on non-virtuelle installs computer and server and operation" however do practically is fundamentally not different then do it physically, although with virtualization, there are additional methods that can be used, as using an ISO Image vs optical media to install from, etc.  Seriously with your course, you should be able to install VMware Workstation, browse and examine the different menu commands and create VM almost without having to read the documentation however takes the time to at least he skim initially and then jump in.    As a tip activate everything installs Windows without first installing VMware Tools, if you plan to install VMware Tools in the virtual machine, and wait until you are sure that you have configured as you want, and then select as appropriate.

  One thing you'll need to do if you are using the latest version of VMware vCenter Converter you will need to select the correct mass storage controller as you walk through the wizard because it is by default in the IDE and you want LSI SAS with Windows 7.
