Re: Importing VM with custom vnet from Fusion in Workstation

$

Hi,

 

OK, assuming we're talking about the eth0 device then the mac address of your VM in the vmx file would have to match the mac address in the file:

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

 

If the device is eth1 then change the filename accordingly.

As soon as I have access to it, I'll check that and report back. Let's hope it's only PEBKAC. Thanks so far.

Start shared VM locally (script/command) from cmd at specific day/time

Hi all!

Running shared VM on Windows WorkStation 14

I am aware of shared VM power options and setting it to start with Windows works fine.

But I need to start this VM only on week days at 9 am, so I was considering writing a script to do that.

But when I try to use vmrun or just start it from cmd I am getting the error that "Locally open shared VM is not allowed."

Using

vmrun -T ws -h 127.0.0.1 start "C:\<pathToSharedVM>"

gives me the same error.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Sorry I am looking to control the hypervisor like with vcenter. But that would be very expensive for 87 host with only 1 vm. it would be nice to be able to do snapshots or local backs or cloud backups, Monitoring of bandwith, HDD usage, running state, and also pinging the cameras if the software is capable.

I am using VMware Workstation Player (the free version).  This does not have the option to upgrade the VM.  I was hoping there was a standalone product that would do the conversion.

Thanks for getting back to me.

 

I forgot to explain that this is a Windows Storage Server 2012 box, not an ESX host. But it's the exact same card with, what sounds like, the same issues. If it had the same problem with ESX then that indicates it's not an OS problem but either a setting required with the card, or an issue with our switch config, possibly cabling or transceivers that we haven't been able to find yet.

 

I can try going back to HP with your case ID and see if they can find something in there, but if you can recall how you fixed it, please let me know.

 

Cheers,

Liv

What you could as an alternative is create a new VM in VMware Player 14 and choose the "Install operating system later" option. You then replace the virtual disk of the new VM with the existing one.

 

Keep a backup of the VM though before doing this. If the existing VM uses virtual EFI, you may have to copy over the nvram file over as well aside from the virtual disk. The nvram file of a virtual BIOS is much smaller (around 9KB) than one using virtual EFI (over 70KB).

There is actually no function in VMware Player to do that.

  • Any VMware product in the chart above, with the exception of VMware Player, is able to upgrade the version of a virtual machine's hardware to the highest version that it supports.

VMware Knowledge Base

 

It may be as simple as manually editing the .VMX file for the virtual machine.

 

Power off the VM, do not just suspend it.

Navigate to the folder containing the VM

Make a copy of the existing .VMX file

If possible, make a copy of the entire VM... just in case.

Open Notepad and then drag the original VMX into Notepad's window.

In VMware Player, open the virtual machine's .vmx file using a text editor.

Locate the entry virtualHW.version = "x".

Change the above entry to:

virtualHW.version = "14"

Save and close the .vmx file.

Save the file, then double-click on the .VMX to open it.

If a WIndows VM then you should get prompted about changed hardware

Install the newer VMware tools to get newer drivers, etc.

 

 

  1. Note: Changes made to the .vmx file do not take effect until the next time VMware Workstation or VMware Player is opened.

Are you running 7.4? There is a known bug for this exact issue that a hot fix was made available for and I was told would be resolved in 7.5.

I've seen the UAG do exactly what you are describing when you specify a redundant default route. Can you share the ini file that are you using when deploying?

Hi smith_II,

You might installed VMware Client IP Transparency feature in the RDSH and your client host doesn't have interent access. This setup option is not selected by default.  You can disable it by VMware Client IP Transparency Policy SettingsGPO  through VMware View Agent Configuration ADMX Template Settings , Thanks.

Unless this software has an application that can manage multiple instances (or something similar), I don't see there being a replacement for vCenter. vCenter cannot manage ESXi free edition either.

Changing lsisas to vmscsi on an EFI guest

$

I've done this a million times before.  Add a 2nd SCSI adapter, make it vmscsi, shutdown, change the 1st adapter from lsisas to vmscsi, boot up, profit.  Works every time.

 

Now I have a VM where Windows utterly refuses to boot from a vmscsi adapter.  2nd adapter is set as vmscsi, driver is installed, Windows sees the 2nd adapter and the attached disk.  All systems are go.  Boot process begins but after 15 seconds or so it BSODs with INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE.

 

This particular VM is EFI -- I've only worked with BIOS in the past.  Does this change the procedure?
