• You can run virtual machines created by merger in other operating systems

  If I install Windows 7 as a virtual machine using Fusion OSX and store the virtual machine on an external hard drive, it is possible to connect this drive in a computer running Windows or Linux and run the same virtual machine using something like VMWare Player? The idea is that if users have a Mac at home and a PC at work, we welcome with a virtual machine instead of a laptop.

  Thank you!

  OVF is a small and open format mainly used for the transport of virtual machines. After you deploy it, you will work with a normal vmdk, etc files (as far as I know... but I'm still learning new things here in this community)

  Now, performance, which is the other discussion. VMware has proved to be more solid and trusted platform... and for Windows VMS, I saw better than other hypervisors performace. It would make a difference, it will depend on how intense are your processes and the ratio of group you want to reach.

  To facilitate the management, security and stability, I highly recommend to use VMware. Performance should be better too, but it's harder to see sometimes. For a scenario of development where the snaoshots are very used, VMware will make a big difference.

• Replying to a virtual machine within the same site

  I try to install vSphere replication v5.1.  I do this without SRM, but just the OVF appliance (s).  We currently have 8 guests distributed between two groups.  We have a vCenter control all this, and all is listed in a Data Center.  The second group is in our DR site and has different storage mapped to it.  I try to use vSphere replication as a means to keep our important VM replicated to our centre of DR disaster.  Is it possible to do so in the only current configuration?

  I'm having a hard time comes to work.  I have deployed two replication OVF devices and I'm stuck trying to replicate a virtual machine actually.  It gives me an error that the data object is not found.  I thought that I needed to 'Connect' from the local site to the remote site, but since this is all a time installing vCenter, I get an error indicating it cannot connect to itself.

  Is what I'm trying to do possible?  If not, could you let me know what I need to change to make it work properly.  Thank you.

  Hello

  The scenario you describe is supported - you can replicate virtual machines from one host to another within the same VC.

  To do this:

  -you will need to deploy vSphere 5.1 replication for a VC and no specific host

  -VR requires VC 5.1. If you liked VC - standalone VR will not work. If you have more recent VC, for example 5.5, you need RV 5.5

  -For replication within the VC even you don't need to link to the target site.

  -Simply select the computer virtual you want to replicate, when you opened a session in vSphere Web Client connected to the VC, point to the same location - must be available in the list, and select the appropriate data store and move through the wizard.

  Kind regards

• Once you have a virtual machine running my application, what can I do with it?

  I would like to be able to download the entire VM, with all their libraries, etc.,.

  for a service that would allow me to run them.  I would also like to be able to

  to turn them off, in which case a new version presents problems, and for

  be affordable?

  One last thing: what search terms should I use to look for such a

  You want "cloud." If you have heard of the interest of the industry in the "cloud computing", it's an aspect of it. You create a virtual machine and hand it turns off your COMPUTER service (for a private cloud) or a hosting company (for a public cloud) and don't have to worry about the maintenance of the equipment. See also http://www.vmware.com/solutions/cloud-computing/

  Cloud computing market is still fairly new, and there is no I'm aware of many suppliers. I also expect them to focus on business first rather than individuals, as businesses will be probably easier to bear (homogeneity) and are willing to pay more.

  As others have said, the current accommodation market (which IMO offers only a fraction of the capabilities of a cloud) is mostly about getting a generic instance and tweak to your liking. I guess the underlying architecture of most of the places is a strategy of container - like - this can reach higher densities (because resources from reviews are shared) at the expense of the flexibility (because resources from reviews are shared), but maybe not what you want.

  The only currently existing service on a large scale that allows the download I can think of off the top of my head is Amazon EC2 (which is a strategy of container and not based on VMware products). You are limited to a certain list of grain and the capabilities of the resources and of course must be in their specific file format.

  If you're ready to be your own host, or can find a small hosting provider, Fusion VMS should be able to run on vSphere with minimal changes (vSphere companies target, so it is much more interested in the most characteristic stability.) Some features that work in Fusion do not work on vSphere).

• After you import the virtual machines in LM, can I remove VC

  Hello

  I had a couple of machines to import the configuration of another admin... After you import the virtual machines in LM, can I remove the virtual machines, I imported VC? I now have more need to fight them with VC. LM depends on of these always after import?

  I do not believe, but you can rename the folder and see if something is complaining.  If it isn't, it is probably safe to delete.

• You can hide the updates of the language, so that they do not appear when checking for Windows updates?

  When running Windows updates, you can hide updates of language so that they do not appear every time that you check the optional updates?

  You can hide updates, you don't want to-

  1. click on view available updates
  2. right click on the update you want to hide
  3. click on hide the update
  4. confirm the UAC if necessary

  Do this for each update, you do not want to install.

• 2 locations to "Program Files" - one on the C partition - and another on the D partition is possible (or option) so that you can 'choose' where to install a program in particular?

  Hello

  It's my first time display questions on a forum like this, so I'll try to explain in detail what I have (somehow... :)).
  Is it possible to have 2 "Program Files" location - one on the C partition - and the other on the D partition so that you can 'choose' where to install a program in particular? I don't really want to get rid from where 'move' the 'Program Files' folder on my C partition (I just do a clean reinstall of Windows XP), BUT I would like to be able to install several programs on the partition D place on C 'by default. "

  Here's the question: I have several programs that have no option to 'choose' where should be installed - they'll automatically C\Program Files. I want to install it on the D partition. If this is not possible, how can I transfer to the new location (once they have already been installed) in their entirety so that they are functional. I don't want to keep the remains, references and 'shortcuts' on the C partition. These programs should begin to malfunction, I have freedom to wipe the D partition and reinstall the programs without messing up the heart of the system.

  I'd appreciate any help, advice and ideas. Regarding my computer experience, I'd put myself in the novice category, detailed explanations would be a lifesaver! Thank you.

• 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.

  Hello whitelotus,

  If the program is not compatible, then you try to install and run the program in compatibility mode.

  Use the following steps:

  (1) right click on the program

  2) click Properties

  3) click on the Compatibility tab

  (4) select run this program in compatibility mode and select Windows Vista or other operating system, the program has been run successfully.

  Check out the link here: make sure to run older programs in this version of Windows

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows

  If compatibility is not successful, then try and self-test program compatibility issues:

  1. open the program compatibility problems theStart button.

  Then click on Control Panel. In the search box, type troubleshooting tool, then clickTroubleshooting. Under programs, clickRun done for previous versions of Windows.

  2. follow the instructions in the troubleshooting.

  If you are unable to install a program, insert the installation disc for the program and, using the Troubleshoot utility, navigate to the program setup file, usually called Setup.exe, Install.exe, or something similar. This utility is not designed to work on programs that have an .msi file name extension.

  If you are running Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate version, install Windows Virtual PC and Windows XP mode (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/default.aspx) and run your software in Windows XP.

  If you run Windows 7 Home Premium, try VirtualBox (www.virtualbox.org) or VMware Player (www.vmware.com), or any other software virtualization part 3^rd and install a separate copy of Windows XP (family or professional edition) for this purpose. You can find the virtualization software free that will run on Windows 7 Home Premium.

  Hope that answers your question.

• Can you pass offline virtual machines between data warehouses using the 'Migration' with the basic Kit Essentials feature?

  I speak not of Essentials Plus vMotion between hosts or migration of VMS between hosts and data warehouses online. Just curious to know if its possible to off a virtual machine and click the button to migrate to another store of data with the basic Essentials bundle.

  Welcome to the community - Yes you can - it's what we call a cold migration.

• Practically in segregation a virtual machine within the same network

  We have a VMware ESXi 5.0.0 (504890) host that has physically 4 network cards. We run 3 VMs on that host and turning a new config. However, this new virtual machine will replace our old Windows DC, DNS, server DHCP etc., and we'd like to config it before going live - will not perform us a migration of swing. We are a little worried that it can interfere with our direct network and that's why I would like to somehow almost segegrate it.

  For the moment, we have a single vSwitch0 linked to all our VMs and management card:

  

  What is the best way to do this so that our new DC (with the same domain name and within the same network) can be configured without it interfering with the current network.

  Thanks for your comments.

  Oliver

  Hello

  You can create a second vSwitch without physical network interface cards. Create a VM Portgroup on this vSwitch.

  You can configure your new virtual machine to use the Portgroup. So, he won't have any connection to your network.

  The good thing is, when you want to test things with a customer, you can create a second VM and configure it to the same VM portgroup on the second vSwitch.

  Two virtual machines on this Portgroup can communicate with them because the traffic is handled internally by the 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)

• Locked on the XP virtual machine within the Windows 7 host

  Not running Virtual Machine XP in Windows 7 to 9 months no problem.

  Left on Virtual Machine PC open, went to lunch, when I came back the screen went black and white and did not.  I rebooted.  Win 7 is running normally, but now have the following message when I open the Virtual Machine.  (BTW: someone other than me has access to this computer)

  When I try to open a session normally I start by getting this error message:

  "The integration features have been disable" close this window and I get the following.

  This computer is in use and has been locked.  Only the Virtualxp-xxx XPMUser or an administrator can unlock this computer.

  This message is displayed in the virtual machine window, BUT!  The window is not active.  I can't read the information.

  I searched many forums and that you find exactly the same problem.

  I opened the settings of virtual window and tried everything I can think of.

  I have screenshots of the menus and things I tried, but don't know how to post them here.

  Help!  I need a very advanced Geek!

  It is a known problem with the Windows XP Virtual Machine.

  In the future if you come accorss this question here, that's what you can do.

  * Go to your folder of user account > My Virtual Machines. Click once on the XP Mode of Windows to highlight and in the menu bar, you will notice the settings option. Clicking on it will open the settings of the Virtual Machine window (Make sure VM is stopped to make changes). It should look something like this http://i884.photobucket.com/albums/ac43/shetty_akash/VirtualMachineDefaultsettings.png

  * Try to start the Virtual Machine if it invites still the user name password click on tools bar menu in Windows XP mode VM window, and then click enable integration features.

  Let me know if you face this problem again and the steps above don't solve the problem.

• Using vmrun to obtain an IP address when you run the virtual machine mode headless fails customers

  Operating system: OS X Yosemite 10.10.5

  VMware Fusion: Professional Version 8.1.1 (3771013)

  When you run a VM guest in headless mode I can't use vmrun to get IP clients. If I eventually bring to the top/start the merger GUI, the command returns the IP address as planned. It is always reproducible.

  $ vmrun -T fusion start "path/to/MyVMs.vmx" nogui
  2016-06-12T10:55:46.626| ServiceImpl_Opener: PID 11515
  
  ... wait for VM to come up. If the VM has a static IP address I can now ssh into the instance.
  
  $ vmrun -T fusion getGuestIPAddress "path/to/MyVMs.vmx"
  Error: The VMware Tools are not running in the virtual machine: "path/to/MyVMs.vmx"
  
  $ vmrun -T fusion checkToolsState "path/to/MyVMs.vmx"

  ... Start the VMware GUI and ensure the VM's console window is open
  
  $ vmrun -T fusion getGuestIPAddress "path/to/MyVMs.vmx"
  192.168.100.23
  

  I tested with open-vm-tools and tools VMware packaged with the merger and the behavior is the same. I also spoke with others on the channel of freenode #vmware who have confirmed that the problem exists for users of workstation as well.

  Hi danandham,

  Welcome in the vmware community. Iyou s really a problem, we try to fix it.

  After a command, you can use as a workaround:

  vmrun t fusion getGuestIPAddress "path/to/MyVMs.vmx" - wait
