VMWare Workstation stops in the middle of the night without user interaction

Hello

We conduct the following problem:

We have a Windows Server 2008 hosting two Windows XP virtual machines using VMWare Workstation 7.0.1. Every few days/weeks, we find the host that is running but VMWare Workstation closed without error message either. I checked the log of the virtual machine and here is the interesting part. What can trigger such behavior?

I know that this is perhaps a very obvious thing to check, but sometimes, they are the most neglected

The server reboots after updates windows for example? or is there no idea in the windows event log to moor with vmware logs?

  • Block of VMWare workstation to restart the virtual machine

    Hi all...

    I use vmware workstation 9.0.2 on a machine running windows 7 Professional (64 bit) on any domain.

    the problem is that: when I reboot whole VM (windows/linux), vmware stop working a present the home screen (with options F2, F12, ESC)... at this time, all orders (average, suspend, reset) does not work... I need to manually complete the vm procecess - ware.exe, remove *.lck items and restart the physical machine...

    If I stop the virtual machine, all work without problems...

    any ideas?

    Hi riccimaticand welcome to the VMware communities!

    Try disconnecting the virtual CD/DVD drive.  It seems that there are situations in which problems arise to restart a guest, operating system while its virtual optical drive is connected.  The most common cause is using MagicDisc/MagicISO on the host, which is known to cause exactly the problem you describe.

    See you soon,.

    What you're trying to convert?  The physical Linux machine, perhaps?  If Yes, then the only destination supported VC/ESX, you can't P2V directly at the workstation.

  • Date system resets to 2002 after a stop during the night

    I have a Dell Dimension 4550 with XP operating system purchased in 2002. Computer work fine except after having turned it off during the night resets date and time system in 2002. After resetting in the configuration screen, it will keep the date until I stop from one day to the next one up to 2002. The error message only in the file is The Core Services service AG could not start due to the following error. The system does not find the specified path, how can I fix this problem

    When the system date and time are incorrect, then is a good indication that the battery on the motherboard needs to be replaced.

    the battery from the motherboard is also known under the name of the cmos battery and the bios battery.

    There are instructions on the net how to replace.

    most of the time its pretty simple to replace and the battery can be purchased where they sell watch batteries.

    You can remove the battery and get the model number or search for it in the manual of your computer or your manual online computers at its place of origin.

    The IPad Pro using 9.3.1 mail is auto deleting messages from the Inbox to the trash without command user. The bug occurs when you open the Inbox, messages will disappear. They are moved to the trash. There is a lot of discussion in the Forums of users of Google dating back several months, but nothing in the communities of Apple. It's obvisually is a problem of Apple software only that can address or difficulty. Any help before then would be appreciated. NOTE: This bug also occurs in Microsoft Outlook for ioS, so there must be a bug or glitch IOS code problem.

  • Structure of the event without user interface

    I tried a quick and effective solution for a structure of event that is not a case of timeout and is part of a vi that has no user interface, but I have sent configuration data to the structure of the event.

    Let me be more clear: I have a camera that generates several events taken by a loop with the structure of the event inside.

    The provider of the camera give me this example of Labview code with all the events I'm interested and how they are implemented. I should mention that when you write a command of camera that a response to an event, but when you connect first to the camera there are more than 100 events generated by the latter, or when you download camera there are also several events. When there is no communication to the camera, the structure of the example event is inactive. The example includes a user interface to change settings and the program responds very well.

    I have to integrate this camera in great demand in which camera photo will be configured in a pragmatic way with number of the type of user interface in the example given by the manufacturer of the device.  First, I tried to design a loop with timeout cases in which a queue can send the data to the device setting configuration. Everything is good until the download when code needs to hold events in a certain way; in my case, an event is taken another goes to the time-out period and so on. After two sets of 100 images download, during the third round Labview gets blocked (Labview not responding) and I have to kill Labview. I got designer of the camera that if camera events are not taken they are kept on a pile and when the battery is full causes the Labview locked.

    Maybe I give too many details, but the question is: how to communicate with a struct event that is not a case of timeout and does not part of a user interface vi (it doesn't have a sign in my application)?

    Oops... Sorry about that.  I've attached an example what I'm talking about here.

  • My iPad stops during the night by himself after installing iOS 9.3.1

    Hello

    Since I started using crossed on iOS 9.3.1 with my iPad it seems to stop by himself at night and it takes a difficult start (button / stop + front button) to revive. How can I fix?

    Thank you, Pierre

    Hello boileaup,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    I understand that your iPad is apparently power off or become unresponsive the next day.   As a first step, I suggest that you reinstall iOS by following the instructions below.

    1. Connect your device to a computer and open iTunes. If you don't have a computer, you can borrow one, or go to an Apple Store or service provider authorized Apple for help.
    2. When your device is connected, force it to restart. Press and hold buttons sleep/wake and Home at the same time. Don't release when you see the Apple logo. Keep now until you see the Recovery mode screen.
    3. When you have the ability to restore or update, choose update. iTunes will try to reinstall iOS without erasing your data.

    iTunes will download the software for your device. If it takes more than 15 minutes, your device will exit Recovery mode and you need to repeat steps 2 and 3.

    If your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch does not respond or won't turn on

    Have a good.

  • MBP stops at the screen without the possibility to insert the connection password

    Mid 2012 rMBP, following key power the log on screen is displayed, but even if the mouse/trackpad is active there is no active option to insert my password to continue the boot process, a reboot of the PRAM sometimes cure the issue, but on the next startup the problem remains. Is it a warning of a more serious problem or is there another process, I can do to cure the issue?

    It may be just a corrupted preference or a cache file. I would first do a Safe Mode boot and then restart your computer normally. This is going to take longer than a usual start just so be patient. This clears and regenerates a few system caches. If that is not enough then I suggest that you try to reinstall OS X. If you no longer have your Installer to Yosemite, then see this: How to reinstall OS X on your Mac - Apple Support.

  • My iPad Pro asks me to enter my Apple ID after a stop of the night.  This was not the case on my iPad Air.  What can I do to eliminate this step?

    I have looked through all the settings and can't find anything you need to stay connected to iClou.

    Tap settings > iTunes & App Stores and then press on your Apple ID then View Apple ID. Enter your password.

    Then restart your iPad and see if she asks your Apple ID even once. It should not.

    The official version said that WS allows only virtual up to 8 TB of disk.

    According to my own tests, it only limits the size of the VMDK for 'New - VM' Assistant.
    Once you have a greater vmdk - just tried a vmdk 10TB - WS won't complain about the size.
    I don't expect that WS will prevent the physical disks to use inside a virtual machine that is already configured.
    So in your case I think you started WS with a normal user account.
    Try to start as administrator WS - maybe even using the administrator account.
    I think that then it will work.
    Unfortunately, the error messages produced by vmware.exe are not really accurate-, so there is no way to know if you really have a bad super block.
    To test if this is really the problem and not just an error message - poor try to mount the drive directly.
    Please post the vmdk - want to know if there is something unusual about 5.5 TB in the disk.

  • What happens if RMAN has stopped in the Middle?

    How can manage us if RMAN being stopped in the Middle?

    Restart RMAN backups

    With the reusable backup feature, RMAN backs up only files that were not saved after a specified date.

    bootable backup

    The feature that allows to RMAN back up only the files that have not been backed up since a specified date. Restart unit ended last backup set or copy of the image. You can use this feature after a backup fails to save the parts of the database behind the backup failed.

    On redemarrables backups

    The minimum unit of restart is a data file. However, if a backup set contains a backup piece, and this piece contains blocks of several data files, then restart unit is the backup piece. The reboot to get copies of the image unit is a data file.

    The advantage of redemarrables backup is that if the backup generates multiple backup sets, then backup completed successfully sets do not be rerun. However, if the entire database is written in a backup set, and if the backup fails to halfway through, then the whole of the backup should be repeated.

    IO errors that RMAN meets when reading files or writing for the backup pieces or copies of the RMAN image put an end to the current backup task. For example, if RMAN tries to save a file of data, but the data file is not on the disk, then RMAN complete backup. If several channels are used or redundant backup copies are created, then RMAN can however be able to continue the backup without user intervention.

    RMAN can back up only the files that have not been backed up since a specified date. Use this function after a backup fails to save the parts of the database behind the backup failed.

    You can reboot a backup by specifying the SINCE TIME clause on the BACKUP command. If the SINCE TIME is later than the time of execution, then RMAN backs up the file. If you use BACKUP DATABASE NOT BACKED UP without the SINCE TIME parameter, then RMAN backs up only files that have never been backed up.

    Restart a backup after having partially completed

    Use of the SINCE TIME parameter of the BACKUP command to specify a date after which a new backup is necessary. If the SINCE TIME is later than the time of execution, then RMAN backs up the file. If you use BACKUP DATABASE NOT BACKED UP without the SINCE TIME parameter, then RMAN backs up only files that have never been backed up.

    To back up only files which have been saved after a specified date:

    1. Start RMAN and connect to a catalog of database and recovery target (if used).
    2. Run the BACKUP ... NOT BACKED UP SINCE TIME command.

      Specify a valid date in the SINCE TIME parameter. The following example uses the default channel configured to back up all database files and logs archived recovery that have not been backed up during the last two weeks:

      BACKUP NOT BACKED UP SINCE TIME 'SYSDATE-14' DATABASE PLUS ARCHIVELOG;
