VSphere Client console problem

I'm currently running client Vsphere 4.0.  I have 3 virtual machines created and loading them with ISO images.  However, I have other software I need to install other software using setup.exe.  I not found on each map a drive to the virtual machine through the console.  Does anyone have any ideas how can I map a drive or a cut and paste.

Help!

Thank you

You cannot do this using the vSphere client

Must use the usual means, share the folder on the network, access it on VM and do the configuration

  • vSphere Client Console Session zooms online

    Hi all

    I have a strange here, I hope that someone can help you.  I installed vCenter 6.0 and added my 6.0 hosts.  When I connected the web client of vSphere and open a console in one of my servers Windows 2012 (others worked well) the console session seemed to open up over and over again within himself until I got a ultra zoom in the console session the I can't navigate around where do much of anything with.  Even the prompt to hit ctrl-alt-del and the login screen are ultra zoom.  I tried to use ctrl-mousewheel to zoom out, but who have no real effect, it comes to the smaller icons.  I am able to use the tab and search for open some programs, and I know that they are open because when I alt - tab I can see them and cycle through them, but when I'm on the desktop, I see is a blue field, I can not interact with and a giant cursor.  This behavior is present when I use the client Citrix go and help that is installed on the server, but it's good to a remote desktop session.  I can RDP into the session zoomed and see everything that is open and properly interact with it.  I tried to restart the guest and the host without success.  I am at a loss.  Help!

    I have attached a few screenshots to show what I'm against.

    Hello

    I guess that this behavior of the console view of the virtual machine via the c# client is fine?

    What browser do you use on your and have you tried another? It seems strange that this only happens on 2012 R2 servers!

    When you extend the data store on the vSphere Client Console, I get the error message:

    Anyone an idea why I can't extend the data store? The new drive is correctly detected.

  • vSphere Client ESXi 4.1 keyboard repeats

    I'm under ESXi 4.1.0 on a Dell PowerEdge 1850.  When I open a vSphere Client console window to a computer virtual desktop running Windows XP, just fine.  When I perform the same process of a Dell Latitude E6410 Laptop with Windows 7 SP1 of the keys that I sink into the virtual machine will scroll numbers 0-9.

    For example, when you attempt to connect to dialog logon WIndows Server, in the user name entry I press the 'P' button twice, it will echo "01".   If I press the 'P' button again once it will echo '3' and so on.  I tried the new customer of ThinApped without any difference.  I also tried to create a new virtual machine from media and during the installation of the OS, before the key is always that numbers.

    I tried this on the virtual machines running Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, and Ubuntu with the same results.

    I don't know what else to try.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Just to eliminate any external cause, you use the following Norton antivirus on Windows 7 PCs with constantguard?

    I've seen a number of occasions where constantguard has decided to enter the numbers you have described

    I use a mixture of Windows XP, Windows 7 Pro and Ultimate and donlt have questions you specify (but do not use Norton)

  • vSphere client on a machine Windows 10 - problems with mouse inside the VM consoles

    Aloha,


    I just upgraded to Windows Pro 10. I'm also using vSphere client 5.5.0 build 1618071.

    When the management of the virtual machine, everything is good and right with the world. But when I access

    a vm console - either by tab or open a stand-alone console window the mouse

    becomes very irregular on the desktop of the virtual machine. Movement is unpredictable. Right click

    on an icon, sometimes opens the correct pop-up menu. And when I get

    the menu, choose the desired action is almost impossible.


    Everyone knows this and has a solution?

  • vSphere Client VM console only interactive when it is full screen

    When I display the tab console on a virtual computer, I can see it correctly and the display of updates as expected, but I can't interact with it with the mouse or the keyboard.

    CTRL-Alt-Enter and Ctrl-Alt-Del on the keyboard has no effect.

    Comments > Send Ctrl-Alt-Del works properly even if I can not connect the keyboard or the mouse still does not work.

    Comments > enter full screen works and I can then use the virtual machine full screen as expected. Pressing Ctrl-Alt when full-screen returns to the console in the client without intervention of the user possible as before.

    The same is seen if I break into the console on the client.

    It worked once before, when someone else connected to my VM so we were both connected, then I could interact with the virtual machine in the console of the customer.

    I use version 4.1.0 for ESXi and customer. I installed the latest VMWare tools. The only warning I get started is that there is not enough video RAM to use the maximum resolution (2560 x 1600), but I don't want this resolution.

    Any ideas? TIA,

  • Problems with virtual center/vsphere client

    Hello

    We use Vsphere client 4.0.0 build 208111 with Virtual Center Server version and same build.

    I have 2 problems:

    1. I have a virtual machine with only one disc that is shown on 2 different data stores. If I look through the models and virtual computers, I see only 1 vm. If I look through the data warehouse screen, I see it in the store data-002 and 003-store data. If I go to the settings of the virtual machine on the datastore-002 and check the disk, I see the path in the store of data-003.

    How can I fix?

    2. I turned on a windows 2003 vm. I couldn't close it via customer vpshere because the status of VM Tools showed not running. When I logged in the system, he showed OK and then I could close by the customer.

    Do I always login for virtual machine tools to perform?

    Thank you

    Haim defending

    This virtual machine has a CD / ISO mounted?  What happens if you click edit setting on the virtual machine, that says the file of the disk?

    Also, go to the service console and watching a .vmx file, it should say something like

    scsi0:1.fileName = "servername.vmdk"
    

    Then look at the hard, it should point to something like

     VMFS "servername-flat.vmdk"

  • VSphere client web - Remote Console error: unable to connect to the connection of mks (name of user and password) incorrect

    Hello

    I am running vmware Fusion on my mac computer. I created a domain with 2 vm ESXI, VSPHERE client and a DC inside the merger. My mac is not inside the area, but can access the area through clearOS router which is also inside the virtual machine. my mac has IP 192.168.2.x and my management in the 10.0.0.x field segment

    When I try to access a virtual machine on my esxi from my mac, I get the error failed to connect to the connection of mks (name of user and password) incorrect. I guess it has something to do with my mac is not in the area, but no idea how I can solve this problem?

    Thank you

    solved by adding the ip address of my ESXI in my macs hosts file

  • Avoid or prevent mirroring of the console in vSphere Client

    I'm looking for more information on how to avoid and prevent the mirroring of the console in vSphere Client. As default the console could be perceived by several users at the same time. All those who have access to vSphere Client and server could connect and watch the console.

    Is it possible to configure how the Console should behave?

    Cordially Jens

    You can add the RemoteDisplay.maxConnections setting in the advanced configuration of the virtual machine settings and set it to 1. If you want to do it without interruption of service, add the following line to each of the. VMX files:

    RemoteDisplay.maxConnections = 1

    After editing the VMX file, vMotion, the machine to re-read the config (otherwise the changes do not take effect until the reboot), and who should do it. There is a script PowerCLI here that will try to change this setting on all of your virtual machines.

  • Slow mouse (vSphere Client after open the Console)

    I have a brand new installation of VMware (more Essentials).  I'm also very new to the world of VMware, if I'm still struggling to catch.

    When I connect via vSphere Client and select "Open Console" for any of my virtual machines, the mouse becomes too slow and nervous.

    Data sheet:

    • I have 2 guests;  Total 12 VMs
    • I see the slow mouse even if my client is installed on XP - Pro or Server 2003.
    • All virtual machines are Server2008 R2.  All the parameters of servers run by default.

    I saw an old discussion of similar on this site trouble but no final resolution.

    Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

    Jim Nachbar

    Welcome to the community,

    solutions for Windows XP/2003 and 2008 R2 are different. Unless already done so, install VMware Tools in the virtual machines.

    for Windows 2003 and XP follow http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1002450 to enable hardware acceleration

    follow http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1016770 for Windows 2008 R2

    Don't forget to adjust the video RAM as described in the article, otherwise you can end up with a black console!

  • VSphere Client limit "the virtual machine console.

    Hello

    I have done several searches and could not find anything relevant so I thought I'd post the question.

    I have ESXi 4.0 running with the installation of 3 virtual machines. I connect to the ESXi 4.0 via Client.exe vSphere hypervisor in windows.  I have a couple of people using the same account. For this reason, we have noticed that, if one of us is connected to a virtual machine, the other person can open the console of the virtual machine also and mess with what they do.  He warns that many people are watching the same virtual machine with the bar at the top of the screen indicating there are now 2 sessions of active console.

    My question is: is there a way to limit the client to only allow a connection active console both to a virtual machine?  That way if someone is already logged in / virtual console and a view, no one else can.

    I understand that I can create several vSphere client accounts with restrictions on the permission to have each account only have access to a specific virtual machine, but I would like to avoid that if possible. Everyone should have access to each virtual machine... but not at the same time...

    Perhaps there is a configuration file (or the customer's option) to limit connections of the console to one (I guess that there is a limit somewhere?).  I found there is a "VpxClient.exe.config", but it doesn't look like this kind of information can be changed here?  If this is something that is encoded in the software I will drop it, but I thought I don't know if I asked

    Thanks for your time to answer this question,

    Dan

    by default, it is set as 25, but that can be changed.  However, it is on a customer by customer basis, so as far as I know, there is no comprehensive way to do this.

  • Problems with the VMware vSphere Client

    Hallo

    I have problems with the new Client VMware vSphere.

    Until I installed the new client on my system, I had the old VMware inferstructure 2.5 client to manage my esxi.

    I was then going to test esx 4 box of the anther and then installed the vsphere client.

    But!

    When I try to connect my old esxi 3.5 or the new esx 4 I get the following error from the vsphere client:

    "Analysis of the server"192.168.2.2"" clients.xml"file error.

    Logon will continue, contact your system administrator.

    I then clik Ok and get this message:

    The initializer for type for 'VirtualInfrastructure.Utils.HttpWebRequestProxy' threw an exception.

    I tried to delete the old client and the new and then install the new, but still it dosent work.

    I am running Windows 7 64 bit.

    It will not work on windows 7, period.  You must run the VIC from a supported operating system
