• Lion running as a virtual machine under Windows (in front of the normal).

  Long story short, I'll install Windows (natively) on my MBA (lots of reasons - application compatibility, management files, etc.) but would like to have OS X on the side to play with. Anyone have any experience using OS X Lion in a virtual machine under Windows? Since it IS an Apple computer brand, I think it would be legal Yes? I'm guessing there will be VM Tools, but again, since it is an MBA, the drivers should be built anyway?
  
  Thank you

  First VMware does not support Mac OS x (and version) running under Windows!

  Mac OS X Lion, which is preinstalled cannot be legally virtualized and to virtualize Mac OS X Lion, you need to have a copy that was purchase on the App Store or on USB and then can only be virtualized on Mac OS X Lion!

• How to make for the Hyper-V role to run on a virtual machine in esx 5

  Hello

  I am trying to run the Hyper-V role on a virtual machine in vmware esxi 5. I'm under eindows Server 20008 R2 datacenter edition and install esx I have on a server dell with 32 GB of Ram and 2 intel Xeon processors. the material is active VT. I get the below error message all the time.

  Hyper-V cannot be installed.

  the processor on this computer is not compatible with Hyper-v. to install the role of HRT, the processor must have a version support for hardware-assisted virtualization, and this feature must be enabled in the BIOS.

  Info

  -the material is active VT and I am trying to nest a virtual machine with the hyper-V role.

  any help is appreciated.

• Snow Leopard 10.6 running as a virtual machine under Lion problem

  Hello!

  It is the first time I'm trying to merge.  I read a post that was now possible with the new release of the Fusion to install the version no of OS x Server Leopard and Snow Leopard.

  I downloaded the trial version free and started the merger... Inserted my Snow Leopard 10.6. DVD retail, but I got the msg that Mac OS x Server is not the guest operating system.

  How can I install it?

  THK.

  Is the post where I read the article: http://arstechnica.com/Apple/news/2011/11/VMware-Fusion-users-can-now-install-Leopard-Snow-Leopard-in-VMs.Ars

  This article was written during the brief window where you * might * install SL customer in a virtual machine, before Apple explained their license agreement with VMware.  It is not possible, because it is a violation of the policy of Apple.

• Catch22, how to change the settings for VirtualCenter, running as a virtual machine

  I'm running as a virtual machine under ESX 3.5 VirtualCenter. I want to change the setting of this virtual machine, but of course, the only way to change many parameters of a virtual computer is to stop the guest OS. I just changed the type of NIC on all my virtual machines, except VirtualCenter, using this procedure:

  http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1007195

  I want to change the adapter for VirtualCenter to improve vmxnet as well. How to work around the Catch22 needing VC running to change virtual machines but requiring judgment VC to edit it?

  Laughing out loud

  Shut down the virtual computer. Open the VI Client and instead of the IP address / hostname of the VC Server enter the IP address / hostname of the ESX host. You must use an ESX account for it! If in doubt try then the VM VC is still under way.

• Run the script inside the virtual machine the user when the user connects or reconnects

  Hello

  is it possible to detect the user that the user has connected or reconnected to his office inside the virtual machine and run a script?

  It is also possible within the VM user to determine if the user is connected and how long?

  One way to do this is via the following powershell command, but this only works if the user is connected through PCoIP Protocol.

  Get-WmiObject-class Win32_PerfRawData_TeradiciPerf_PCoIPSessionGeneralStatistics - SessionDurationSeconds property

  Best regards

  > it is possible to detect the user that the user has connected either reconnected to his office inside the virtual machine and run a script?

  You can run scripts as user on login and reconnect, this has been a feature since 3.0. See running commands on the desktop view.

  > It is possible inside the VM user to determine if the user is connected and how long?

  I don't think that we expose, but you should be able to query Windows for the connection time, or you could write the last time to connect with a script (maybe that is the reason for your first question?).

• is it a good idea to run the JAVA virtual machine inside the hypervisor?

  If I want to write a global user inside the hypervisor platform and you want to reuse some java lib, it's a good idea to install and run the JAVA virtual machine as part of global programs of the user inside the hypervisor? Thank you.

  Maybe you listen to the wrong people?

  The ESXi hypervisor is pretty well stripped of the linux console you are talking about, there is a thin busybox linux like environment, but you are strongly advised not to run anything in there.

  Performer of applications within this console may have all kinds of side effects such as severely affect the performance of your computer virtual guests.

  Why the hell would you want to run the JAVA virtual machine inside the hypervisor? What is the reason why you want to do this? If it's because you get a better return, then you're wrong, the console becomes just a little bit of resources available on your host computer.

  If this is to go directly to the features that the hypervisor provides then the VMA we're talking is the answer.

  So getting back to your question initial for EACH use case that I can think it's a very bad idea.

• 64 bit VMs in ESX/ESXi 4.0 that is running as a Virtual Machine in VMware Workstation 7.0.1

  I created an ESX4 host in VMware Workstation 7.0.1 as a Machine with 4 GB of RAM, 2 vCPUs and 1 (25 GB for installation) VMDK virtual and more later added 75 GB VMDK as an iSCSI LUN using openfiler.

  My vCenter Server runs as a Virtual Machine with SQL Express Edition 2005 DB.

  I want to install a Windows Server 2008 R2, which is a 64-bit as a virtual machine within the VM ESX4 embedded operating system. Is this possible?

  Hello

  as this comment by DOC from VMWare, in the 'internal' invited you will just be able to run 32-bit clients, never a 64 bit one.

  Best wishes / Saludos.

• Computer as a virtual machine in ESX?

  I'm sure that this issue is buried somewhere in the documentation, but can I install VMware Workstation as a virtual machine on my ESX host? If not, there are workarounds (I know that it would be unsupported of course if that is the case)?

  This may work - it depends on the CPU and the ESX version you have

  cheat "is a fool trying to settle inside a virtual machine?" - the workstation Installer test is easy

  Add the line

  monitor_control.restrict_backdoor = 'true '.

  for the vmx ESX - VM file

  to run a VM nested inside this ESX - VM you need more parameters, but this depends on the CPU, ESX and WS-version

  read 'Nested VMs Running' of jmattson - see

  http://communities.VMware.com/people/jmattson?view=documents

  This document covers most of the possible scenarios, and it will tell you what settings to add.

  What is the purpose of your idea?

  You might be interested in studying the workstation as a program itself? - or do you need run VMs nested first?

  If it's the last that I would higly recommend using a 2003-32 bit VM install Workstation in.

  I use virtual machines in SMV much and from my 2003 experience is by far the most powerful home under these conditions.

  Better than Linux Significalntly...

• How to configure HA when vCenter is running as a virtual machine in one of the army?

  To install HA with VMware EVC, guests must be first maintenance mode before moving into the HA cluster. The problem is, vCenter runs as a virtual machine inside one of these hosts. If I stop vCenter downwards so that the host in maintenance mode, how do I setup with VMware EVC HA without using vCenter?

  If you do not feature vMotion, right down your vCenter VM and you unsubscribe eg. ESX1 can record for example. ESX2 then turn back on. ESX1 maintenance mode and then back ESX1 on your cluster file and exit once done maintenance mode. It goes the same for ESX2 and the rest of the ESX host.

• Database SQL vCenter that is running on the virtual machine within vsphere

  Hey guys, I was wondering how many of you are running your database remote vcenter on a virtual machine inside your vsphere environment? We always ran the vcenter db on a physical remote outside the vsphere group box, but I am considering the upgrade to sql 2008 R2 and I already have a virtual sql server computer running within vsphere.

  Pro/drawbacks to be aware of the db running on a virtual machine?

  Thanks in advance

  Kevin

  We rotated our SQL database in a VM for a while now.

  Some advantages are for example the wide use of HA and the ability to easily extend if necessary resources. In addition, if you use backup as Veeam software a restore takes only a few minutes from a physical configuration.

  There are a few things when you have to keep in mind:

  -Make sure that your SQL VM database begins before your vCenter (the service does not start if it cannot reach the database), even if it can be fixed manually it might be something you want to keep in mind

  -If you use the distributed switches power risk since data is stored in the database, of course there are solutions for this (keep the traffic on a standard switch management)

  -If you use HA make sure you modify the priority of restarting HA for the virtual machine (you don't want a reboot suddenly)

• addition of virtual machine / Server esx for production environment

  Hello

  How can we add virtual machine or esx server for production environment?

  In general... As his "simple terms?

  Install ESXi host

  Install, run and connect to the host via the gateway client installed from the host on an external workstation

  Then

  OR THE OTHER

  Install and run the converter on each physical computer that you want to become a virtual machine

  Once finished, turn off power to virtual and physical.

  OR

  Create a virtual machine and install the o/s CD drive.

  What you want is way off the coast without 1 million questions about your installation.

• VCenter are running in a virtual machine: now, it is a good idea?

  This article:

  http://searchvirtualdatacentre.TechTarget.co.UK/news/column/0, 294698, sid203_gci1512874, 00.html?

  says it is recommended.  He will then raise a problem with the Update Manager.  I do not use the Update Manager, so I'm interested to know if anyone can confirm and tell me what document of VMware's vCenter recommended to run on the virtual machine as a 'best practice '.

  I'm more ready to go this way than before, but I'm always cautious when I consider the complexity of chess.

  If host ESX running vCenter server completely failed, then, Yes, vCenter will re-start on another host.

  But there are opportunities far more problems than that.  What happens if the data store becomes unavailable?  What happens if the ESX host is suspended from a problem that connects the CPU?

  Be extremely careful, I can not far because virutalizing vCenter means basically that it have more complexity in the layers beneath him and therefore more opportunities for the failure of the recovery are introduced.

  I know vCenter running on material means that layer may still fail, but we're watching all of our physical servers that run our ESX host.

  Put a hypervisor on them prevents us from having to deal with the problems of disk/network/fiber channel / local memory.

  the search for VMware, I found a doc who wrote in 2009, don't know if it's always the last Gospel.  I will raise a support call to ask VMware, but I wanted to first see if you can give me a link to the answer.

  http://communities.VMware.com/docs/doc-11197

  Interesting that this doc on the VMware site binds effectively to that on the techtarget site.  That's fine, but I want VMware reference that mentions the techtarget article.

  Congratulations in advance for your time and your help.

  Points of generous and enthusiastic congratulations to all those who could be the key here.

  see you soon,

  Kevin

  The design of vSphere course has this as the best exercise of the profession - the reasons have already been identified. From VMware, it's a virtual vCenter server has high levels of resilience and redundancy, you can not necessarily with a physical server or having to pay a significant premium to achieve, that is to say MS clustering.

  It also gives you the possibility of increasing resources - CPU and ram discs if you need to. With the help of a physical server you reaches the limits of physical capacity.

  If it works as aVM you use common sense - if you have one or two hosts then risks may outway the benefits, that is a failure of a single host leaves Infrastructure depend on the remaining host. If you have 10 hosts and a resilient storage solution then why not.

  There is quite a response to the host to vcenter environment - person has never shot to run on a physical server and can say the same for virtual.

• VCenter U1 patch that runs in a virtual machine.

  Hello, I have recently updated my ESX infrastructure to vSphere 4.0U1. I run Server 4.0U1 with Update Manager vCenter. I'm confused as to how I can keep my current VM with patch vCenter. When I try to scan the virtual machine with the Update Manager - I get the following error:

  CK-VCENTER VM is a virtual machine that has installed VMWare or VMWare vCenter Update Manager vCenter. This virtual machine will be ignored for scan or clean-up.

  I know vCenter running as a virtual machine is officially supported by VMWare - so I'm confused as to how I can keep this compatible virtual machine. I have several tasks such as improving the VM hardware version 7 to 4, while keeping the of Windows OS virtual machine patched, etc. This must be a common situation for those who have a similar setup as me. Please notify.

  There are no Patches VMware vCenter, just for vCenter and those are re - installs the application.  Regarding Microsoft security patches, you would have to patch as if it was physical.  We use Shavlik.  But you can use WSUS or even windows updates.

  with regard to the update of the virtual hardware. Go to the ESX, the guest host is registered on, stop the VM vCenter and upgrade the equipment this way.
