Why the GUI vmware.exe resizes when virtual machines?

Why the GUI vmware.exe resizes when virtual machines?
For me, it's very annoying - how can I disable this behavior?

Hi Continuum,

Have you checked the settings of automatic adjustment under "Preference-> Display? I guess that your "Autofit window" is checked.

  • Change the default options for a NEW virtual machine in ESXI 5.1

    Hello

    I am looking for a solution change the 'default' options for a new virtual machine created in ESXI 5.1

    I want to have parameters such as 'cpu/memory HOT-add' default to enabled instead of disabled.

    There may be more options to change to a new virtual machine.

    All those who have an option to change the 'default' options for new virtual machines?

    THX

    You can change the/etc/vmware/config of vSphere host file and add the lines mem.hotadd = 'TRUE' and vcpu.hotadd = 'TRUE '.
    The settings then apply to any VM on this host when virtual machines are turned on...

    I just tried this on a 5.1 ESXi host and it seems to work perfectly...

  • How can I pay for the reservation of memory on all virtual machines to "0"?

    I am trying to write a script that will pay for the reservation of memory on all virtual machines that are invited in a cluster to '0 '.  We have book too much memory, and this setting should allow VMWare facilities manage reserves memory for me.  I have hundreds of virtual machines to update, so I can't do it by hand.  I hope that it is possible via the CLI.

    Can someone help me with this please?

    Matt example work certainly, and I'm sure that he was going to follow up with something similar to this after having confirmed if it worked or not because it is much more serious on the optimization of code for speed, but I'll (try to) save the effort. To test its extract on a cluster of 45 VMS, it took more than four minutes to complete.  The excerpt below took about 25 seconds.  The difference is of course to use the cmdlet "Get-View" and that it can run asynchronously so (it begins a vCenter task and immediately passes the following).  Of course, this will also put more of a strain to your vCenter server, so keep that in mind.

    $spec = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec
    $spec.memoryAllocation = New-Object VMware.Vim.ResourceAllocationInfo
    $spec.memoryAllocation.Reservation = 0
    Get-Cluster "YOUR_CLUSTER" | Get-VM | Get-View -Property Config.MemoryAllocation | %{$_.ReconfigVM_Task($spec)}
    
  • What is the best way to backup of virtual machines on a standalone ESX with the data store local

    Hello

    I want to save the virtual machines on a host ESX autonomous. and all of these virtual machines is the local data store.  What is the best way to save these virtual machines in this situation?

    And probably we don't provision VTL on the local data center, so it is possible to use VCB to backup? And VCB is a good choice compared to the traditional method that installs the backup client in each virtual machine?   Because I think that in this situation with the data store local, it cannot not reduced the load on ESX hosts and network overhead can be avoided.

    Thank you!

    LAN

    > 1. VCB usable remote tape library? I mean it's not local library and uses the tape library to another network data center.

    VCB is completely unrelated to the tape library, it is a framework, not a backup solution. If your standard backup software can work with the remote tape library you can try it to ungrateful with VCB.

    > 2. what the difference bwteen hot - added NBD and modes if there is that an ESX host with store data local and want to use a virtual machine like VCB proxy? I think that they are the same: the VCB proxy read data through the I/O of the ESX host stack in this situation.

    NBD works on network and the backup traffic goes through the service console connection. Hot add uses special machine for assistance to connect vmdk to and uses of e/s disk stack instead of e/s network.

    > 3. Veeam Backup is free software?

    No, it isn't.

    I would like to know if there is a command that returns the number of disks having a virtual machine.

    and also if there is no command to obtain and change the number of the IOPS / disk s.

    Thanks in advance

    Carlos

    It will give you hard drives attached

    Get - VM | Hard drive


    It will give you count

    Get - vm | Select name, @{N = "TotalHDD"; E={($_ | (Get-harddisk).count}}


    It is possible to retrieve the number of the IOPS / disk s, but what do you mean by editing.

  • How to install vmware tools in a virtual machine running in the drive on an Ubuntu host?

    I have a host of Ubuntu (Ubuntu LTS 14.04.2)

    I have a virtual of Fedora (4.0.4 - 301.fc22.x86_64) and I would like to install vmware tools in the virtual machine.

    When I select the player VirtualMachine-> reinstall VMware Tools...

    I get a prompt in a box on the screen.  It is said:

    The following software are available for download:

    VMware Tools for Linux version 9.9.3

    What do you do?

    X Cancel |  Download and install

    Of course I choose to download and install (kind of silly question - why I want to cancel?)

    So instead of download the tools I want to install, it says:

    Your permission is required to install an update to VMware.

    Please enter the root password to move forward.

    Password: __________

    not serious.  Now, he's looking for what root password?  The virtual machine or the host?

    I have try the virtual machine and it works-not "incorrect password... try again."

    ... well Ubuntu is not a root user.  So, I try the password for the user with root privileges

    "incorrect password... try again."

    Then, he does not.

    Not very satisfying.

    The instructions that I found in my research right you will say to take the step to obtain the Tools package then (well, nothing of the rest of it is important if the tools are not available to me).

    Suggestions?  Advice?

    The required password is for the host.

    A workaround of functions is "sudo su -" of ubuntu host, then start vmplayer from the root prompt.  You must browse the virtual machine since the user doesn't have a history of openness yet... but then there is no prompt asking for a password when you try to download the tools.

  • Why the hyperlinks do not work when Firefox loads a new web page?

    Today, no reason apparent, and for the first time in the years of using Firefox, I find that when a new page loads I can't select any of the hyperlinks on the page. What happens on 90% or more pages I have access. If I navigate to another application (for example, by using Alt + Tab) and return to Firefox, the hyperlinks will work. But if I select one of them and a new page will load, I'm unable to click on hypertext links back.

    This is manifested by the cursor remaining as an arrow and do not suddenly change hands hyperlinks sharp when you move. It also seems to affect the ability to use the GUI buttons and the minimize/restore/maximize/close buttons in the upper left corner of the title bar. Ribbon menu items, oddly enough, seem to work as usual, except that if I open, say, tools/options, I have to leave Fireox and vice versa, before being able to use the Options window that opens. It also prevents me from selecting other tabs. And I still have problems using the Forum of Support Mozilla's form to post this question.

    I tried Firefox running in safe mode and reinstall the software, all to no effect

    is nothing in particular happened

    You have this problem when running in Firefox SafeMode?

    Why does the Date not always appear when I hover my mouse by the clock in the taskbar on my Tablet? It displays immediately if I click somewhere near where on the clock.

    Often it doesn't appear when I go through the clock. Sometimes, it does. I don't know why he sometimes reacts different.

    And didn't someone jump in and start accusing malware etc. Just read my profile. That is not the issue and I don't want to be around anyone who wants just the head in this direction from the outset or even at all! Sorry on my intolerance but I think there are far too many people on the forums who dive on the issue of malware when someone asked a Question on how to change their settings to stop something that happens. I'm sick of this lazy malware junk.

    This is a bug. All XP do. Clicking the taskbar if it "development works most of the time.

  • Please can someone explain why the windows Installer keeps appearing when nothing is installed? Any way to stop this?

    Why the Windows Installer keep popping up, either on a web page or an e-mail to the office when nothing is installed.  No way to stop that... ?

    The desktop of your computer, click on the tab "Start", usually located at the bottom left of the screen (on Vista, it's maybe the windows symbol instead of the word 'Start').

    Now, find and click on the program title 'run '. Vista users can locate this program by typing "run" in the area of research at the bottom of the menu 'start '.

    Once you open 'Run', type 'MSCONFIG' in the empty box and click 'OK '. This will open the System Configuration utility.

    With the open System Configuration utility, select the tab "Services".

    Scroll down the list of services (it may be advantageous to click on the 'service' column to sort the services by alphabetical order) until you find the program "Windows Installer".

    Now, click on the checkbox next to the name of the Windows Installer and click on the button 'Disable' at the bottom of the Configuration of the system.
