• PowerCLI to deploy virtual machines at the same time

  Can I deploy multiple VMs usng PowerCLI, but they spread out in the order and with an error.  It seems almost easier to deploy them manually so that they are created at the same time and not one after the other.  I also want the static IP but don't know how.

  For now, I use a card file customization that indicates static IP and guest for this.  But he never does, he deploys the vms system then throws an error stating VC ' a specified parameter was not correct.  nicsettings: adatpter:ip. "I want to increment IP addresses on virtual computers deploy.

• A virtual machine at the same time...? Which means that for Vmware replication

  Hi guys

  I read the Vmware 5.5 replication, and it says what I do not understand.

  I was reading the recovery process and he said:

  You can recover a virtual machine at the same time on the site replicated on the incoming replication tab

  what it means?

  I restore a VM and I have to wait until he said recovered to start the recovery process or simply means that a single virtual computer at a time and no group of the virtual machine can be recovered I can begin the process of recovery in 3 VMs at the same time, but I have to go one

  Thanks a lot guys

  Hello

  The second. You can begin the process of recovery for each virtual computer and they can go in parallel. However, there is no option to select more than one replication and begin the process of recovery in a single step.

  Kind regards

• Cannot open 2 Virtual Machines at the same time to access the same database

  People,
  
  Hello.
  I'm installing RAC Oracle Database 11 g 2 system with 2 Virtual Machines (rac1 and rac2) on top 3 VMPlayer.
  
  The VM rac1 and rac2 when one of them is stopped.
  Their locations are F:\VM_RAC\rac1 and F:\VM_RAC\rac2.
  
  
  I opened rac1 rac2 is running. But this error message appears:
  
  Error: "cannot open F:\VM_RAC\sharerac\asm1.vmdk drive or one instant records, that depends. Reason: cannot lock the file. »
  
  
  While rac1 running, I opened rac2. But this error message appears:
  
  Error: "cannot open F:\VM_RAC\sharerac\asm1.vmdk drive or one instant records, that depends. Reason: cannot lock the file. »
  
  
  2 error messages are the same. This means that I can not open 2and rac1 rac2 VMs at the same time. When we run RAC system, must open 2 "machines" or machines to more than 2 at the same time, so that all machines can access the same database server.
  
  My question is:
  
  Can all folk tell me how have rac1 and rac2 run at the same time?
  
  Thank you.

  Unfortunately no, Oracle RAC requires that all nodes can visit the same set of shared disks. If your database resides within the DSO, each instance ASM (one per node) must also see the same set of disks to ASM diskgroup containing the data of the database files.

• GUI: how to run the same command on multiple virtual machines at the same time?

  Hello

  Suppose we have several operations on multiple virtual machines (for example as updated virtual hardware, install vmtools - but it could be something else of course...).

• Oracle XE on multiple virtual machines on the same physical machine?

  Hi people,
  
  Can I install Oracle XE on several virtual machines that are on the same physical machine?
  
  Thank you
  
  G. grangier

  I find that this interpretation is questionable.
  Instance, what do mean?
  What they mean by server?
  Unless Oracle explicitly forbids the execution of several databases of XE on different virtual machines at the same time, I don't see violations.

  For example, imagine that the user has runs that XE on AWS and user B running an another XE on AWS.
  They are not running on the same "Server"?

• Tagged management VLAN and the virtual machines on the same VLAN

  I'm faced with a problem related to our Brocade switches newly acquired and get the private VLAN to work on trunk connections to our ESX servers.  Every time I try something different, he creates a new problem.

  In our configuration, our management of VLAN is not tag and we have a VLAN for this management network that is placed on our switches VLAN no marked native.  We also have virtual machines hosted on those same ESX servers that are on the same VLAN and everything works fine.  However, when I change the ESX management to carry a label on this VLAN and change the switchports accordingly (IE no untagged VLAN native), management work, but hosted on the ESX Server machines that are on the same VLAN can get no network connectivity.

  Is it possible to have a management network labeled and also the host of virtual machines on the same VLAN or is it totally impossible?  I'm not very familiar with networking behind ESX, so I apologize if this is a dumb question with an obvious answer.

  Thank you

  Mark J.

  Is it possible to have a management network labeled and also the host of virtual machines on the same VLAN or is it totally impossible?

  Yes, it is possible... why it doesn't work for you I don't know, but try the following:

  1. set up the Group of ports of VMS to use VLAN;

  2 configure the interface of management VMkernel port group use VLAN;

  3 configure the physical switch port to allow to this VLAN and put the default VLAN natively for these interfaces.

• I had the opportunity to see all the drives in windows 7 and XP virtual machine on the same screen. He suddenly disappeared, and I need.

  As I set up my computer with Windows 7 Professional and XP virtual machine, I could see all the readers, W7 and the virtual machine on the same screen. I can't do now for some reason any. All I can understand what is is past is that I got a page long list of automatic updates of W7 and some XP updates and as far as I know, the current page of readers has disappeared since then.  I need this feature if I can transfer files between W7 and XP because some of my programs are in one program of windows. I have nothing special when I installed XP to achieve this functionality, so I really don't understand what it controls.  How can I get that back?

  I have solved my problem by trying everything that moves. Here are my steps:
  -Open Virtual PC and minimize it
  -In the Windows 7 machine, click Start click all programs
  -Select Windows Virtual PC
  -Select Windows Virtual PC (in the drop-down list)
  -When the window opens, right-click on Windows XP Mode
  -Select share >
  -Select the homegroup (read/write)

  -Minimized open Virtual PC
  -Select my computer
  Windows 7 disks will be under other

  I hope this works for you also. As I said, it worked like this until I had a huge list of automatic updates of Windows 7 and XP more some updates. Apparently, one of them cut something.

• Let me know scenarios when different virtual machines with the same UUID are created in VMware Hypervisors?

  Let me know scenarios when different virtual machines with the same UUID created in VMware Hypervisors, aside from editing the .vmx file?

  The only other way I've seen is when you manually copy the virtual machine to another location on the data store (or another data store) and then when turn on/off the virtual machine, select I moved, rather that I copied it (the default option).  This will keep the same UUID.

• run multiple virtual machines on the same shared drive

  I wonder if anyone knows a way to use disks of persistent nonPersistant style to function similar to Citrix Provisioning Server.

  My company uses Terminal Server servers and wants to be able to easily update all servers at the same time.  I know that with Citrix, it is possible to have a 'master' boot drive which the other launch initially out of.  To 'Refresh' your servers, you turn them off, put to update the 'master' then restart them... and viola, all are now updated.  I want to do the same thing, just without Citrix.

  I know that I can use a non persistent disc do not save the changes, but is it possible to have launch several virtual machines off this 1 disk?  I did some research and I continue to come from the small articles/blogs referring to something like this, but either they don't go into the details or they do not seek to launch several virtual machines out of it.

  This is a Citrix provisioning feature. The best you can do is try related clones. They share the same basic disk.

  Do some reading that this is probably the closet for what you are looking for.

• Question: Can store virtual machines on the same drive as ESXi?

  I'll be downloading the trial soon and construction of a test at home server. I see that the minimum requirements are that 80 GB for ESXi but does that mean that ESXi needs 80 GB to be run in addition to virtual machines?

  I want to just prepare for the way I need to build it. Will be need ESXi on it's own hard drive must be installed, and then the other hard drives for data storage?

  Welcome to the community - the best practice is to seprate the storage that you House your virtual machines are the disk that contains the ESXi software - I don't think the 80 GB will be inlcude nominal VMFS datastore but I would invest in a disk drive inexpensive in order to give you more storage.

  Another suggestion to get tested as painless as possible - to confirm that the hardware you are using is supported - http://www.vmware.com/resources/compatibility/search.php

• Impossible to use VMWare Server and Virtual PC at the same time?

  I have a Win 7 box I use VirtualPC (unfortunately, VPN to the employer only supports the 32-bit Win XP).

  If I try to start any virtual machines using VMWare Server, power on and then immediately off.  Tried several different VMs.

  However, if I disable VirtualPC, they all work normally.

  Then... there at - it a known issue with the help of Virtual PC and VMWare Server at the same time?

  BTW, I didn't see this problem when you use Virtual PC and VMWare Player at the same time.

  VirtualPC leaves the CPU of the exploitation of VMX root, which is a restricted mode.  VMware Server is problems to switch between legacy mode and long (this switch is prohibited when the CPU is in VMX root operation).  The current versions of the workstation and the player are able to circumvent this restriction.

• PowerCLI Script to migrate virtual machines with the same network Source for the new vCenter Server.

  Hi all

  I checked a few posts on the migration to the new vCenter Server virtual machine. But I'm not very good with Powercli and need some help here.

  We have a new vCenter server where we migrate virtual machines from one source vCenter server. Here are two things that I don't know how to connect together to make sure that bwfore we turn on the virtual machine to the virtual machine is connected to its source network.

  Part 1 - this script works well but do not get any network on the vCenter destination.

  cluster = Get-Cluster "clusterA.

  $inventory = get-Cluster $cluster | Get - VM | Add-Member - MemberType ScriptProperty-name "VMXPath" - value {$this.extensiondata.config.files.vmpathname}-Passthru-Force | Select-Object Name ResourcePool, folder, VMXPath |

  $inventory | Export-Csv c:\file.csv

  $inventory = import-csv c:\file.csv

  $cluster = get-group 'b '.

  {foreach ($vm to $inventory)

  $ESXHost = get-Cluster $cluster | Get-VMHost | Select - 1 first

  New-VM - VMFilePath $vm. VMXPath - VMHost $ESXHost - location $vm. Folder - ResourcePool (Get-Cluster $cluster |) Get-ResourcePool $vm. ResourcePool)

  }

  Part 2 - I want to preserve the Portgroup macaddress and the Ip of the virtual computers and connect them to the new vCenter. How can I do this with the script below. Or how can I combine them together?

  $vm_list = get-Cluster-name "clustera | Get - VM test * | Name sort

  $information = {foreach ($vm to $vm_list)

  $network_adapter_information = get-NetworkAdapter - VM $vm

  $vm | Select Name,PowerState,ResourcePool,@{N="Path; E=       {$_. ExtensionData.Summary.Config.VmPathName}},@{N="NetworkAdapter '; E = {[string]: join (":", ($network_adapter_information |))} %{$_. {{(Nom + "," + _.NetworkName $}))}}, @{N = "MacAddress"; E = {[string]: join (",", ($network_adapter_information | % {$_.}))} MacAddress}))}}

  }

  Step 2

  # Unsubscribe virtual machines

  Remove-VM - VM $vm_list-RunAsync Verbose - confirm: $false

  Step 3

  $cluster = get-group 'b '.

  {foreach ($vm to $inventory)

  $ESXHost = get-Cluster $cluster | Get-VMHost | Select - 1 first

  New-VM - VMFilePath $vm. VMXPath - VMHost $ESXHost - location $vm. Folder - ResourcePool (Get-Cluster $cluster |) Get-ResourcePool $vm. ResourcePool)

  }

  # Save virtual machines

  foreach ($info in $information)

  {

  $vmxpath = $info. Path

  $resource_pool = $info. ResourcePool.Name

  New-VM - ResourcePool (ResourcePool-Get-name $resource_pool) VMFilePath - $vmxpath - RunAsync-Verbose | Out-Null

  }

  Step 4

  # Put the network cards

  foreach ($info in $inventory)

  {

  foreach ($network_information in ($info.NetworkAdapter - split ":"))))

  {

  $virtual_machine = $info | %{$_. Name}

  $network_adapter = ($network_information-split ",") [0]

  $network_vlan = ($network_information-split ",") [1]

  Get-VM-name $virtual_machine | Get-NetworkAdapter-name $network_adapter | Together-NetworkAdapter - NetworkName $network_vlan-Verbose-RunAsync-confirm: $false | Out-Null

  }

  }

  # Start the virtual machines

  foreach ($vm to $vm_list)

  {

  Start-VM - VM $vm. Name-RunAsync Verbose - confirm: $false | Out-Null}

  }

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  Hi all

  I made some changes to the script and it worked for me. We have added a host on the destination with all exchanges and storage mapped vCenter.

  $vm_list = get-Cluster-name 'Site B - b | Get - VM | Name sort

  $information = {foreach ($vm to $vm_list)

  $network_adapter_information = get-NetworkAdapter - VM $vm

  $vm | Select Name,PowerState,ResourcePool,@{N="Path; E=       {$_.

  }

  # Unsubscribe virtual machines

  Remove-VM - VM $vm_list-Verbose - confirm: $false

  $cluster = get-Cluster "Site A - clustera.

  {foreach ($vm to $information)

  $ESXHost = get-Cluster $cluster | Get-VMHost | Select - 1 first

  New-VM - VMFilePath $vm.path - VMHost $ESXHost - location $vm. Folder - ResourcePool (Get-Cluster $cluster |) Get-ResourcePool $vm. ResourcePool)

  }

  # Save virtual machines

  foreach ($info in $information)

  {

  $vmxpath = $info. Path

  $resource_pool = $info. ResourcePool

  New-VM - ResourcePool (ResourcePool-Get-name "test1") VMFilePath - $vmxpath - RunAsync-Verbose | Out-Null

  }

  # Put the network cards

  .

  foreach ($info in $information)

  {

  foreach ($network_information in ($info.NetworkAdapter - split ":"))))

  {

  $virtual_machine = $info | %{$_. Name}

  $network_adapter = ($network_information-split ",") [0]

  $network_vlan = ($network_information-split ",") [1]

  Get-VM-name $virtual_machine | Get-NetworkAdapter-name $network_adapter | Together-NetworkAdapter - NetworkName $network_vlan-Verbose - confirm: $false | Out-Null

  }

  }

  # Start the virtual machines

  foreach ($vm to $vm_list)

  {

  Start-VM - VM $vm. Name-RunAsync Verbose - confirm: $false | Out-Null

  }

  Hope this will help many of you.
