moving vcsa vm to another location

March 31, 2017, 11:57 am

I'm trying to move my vcsa vm to another location, from an hdd to a ssd disk.

 

On the copied location, if I open the .vmx, and go into settings, and select the hard disks, I see this : "The parent of this virtual disk could not be found".

 

That's because inside the ".vmdk" files, there is this : "parentFileNameHint="D:\vSphere6-VMs\vmware-vcsa\vmware-vcsa-disk2.vmdk"".

 

"D:\..." is the older location.

 

My new location is "C:\...".

 

So how can I completely move my vcsa vm ?

 

I want to use the vcsa vm on the ssd disk (C:) because it will have better swap memory.

Tesla M10 for Autodesk Inventor and Revit?

March 31, 2017, 12:27 pm

We are a K-12 school district and have High School students using workstations to do CAD work in Autodesk Inventor and Revit. These workstation are located in three different computer labs. We would like students to be able to continue their work when not in class which would include using a computer elsewhere in the building or while at home. We are in the process of purchasing new servers (either HP DL380 or Dell R730) and will be installing either M10 or M60 cards.

 

We have 200 student VMWare View desktops spun up and are also delivering applications via View and a few RDS servers. Our current thought is to purchase two M10 cards per server and every View or RDS session will take advantage of some GPU power. The question becomes, does Inventor and Revit run well with the M10 card or should we jump up to the M60?

 

We will not be replacing our workstations running this CAD software. Running the CAD on on occasional basis when a student is not in class is our goal. That and the fact that their are other applications like Photoshop, Google Earth, and streaming video that can take advantage of a GPU. We could jump up to the M60 card but the cost goes up and density goes down. It does delive more graphics horsepower though

XP Vms Extremely Slow all of a sudden

Been using workstation for 2-3 years now on version 12.

 

This week for some unknown reason, and I don't think I've updated Windows in that time (windows 7 Pro - is the host machine 16GB ram).

 

Since the start of this week my XP Vms have been running so slow a to be unusable.

 

I move a slow Xp VM to another Host and it works as expected, and as it used to on my main machine.

 

I've upgraded Workstation, un-installed and re-installed it.

Reduced processors in the Vm from 2 to 1.

Re-installed VM Tools (which take about 3 hours!!).

 

This only seems to affect XP VMs my others Win7 and Win10 work as before.

 

I've spend 3 days on this now and it's driving me mad.

 

Taskmanager on the running XP Vms shows 100% CPU and 0% Idle the majority of usage (40%-80% on Taskmgr)

 

Please help

VDP and VR cross vCenters

Hi,

  So we have 2 vCenters one in our Branch Office the other in our Main.  The Main office has vCenter 6 while the Branch has vCenter 5.5 (do to Hardware Compat with 6.0 esxi). I am wondering if I would be able to run VMware Replication between these two vCenters? Yes I know i need to ensure Hardware Compat stays at 9 and ensure all other compatibility are monitored too. Will VR work between different  versions VR ver6 - VR ves 5? Also will VDP replicate across versions also or do both need to be same version which means same version vCenter?

VCSA 6U3b Certificate Replacement

March 31, 2017, 1:29 pm

It's amazing there is nothing out in VMware KB (or Google) land about the (I thought) simple task of generating new certificates in the VMCA for expiring certificates. I have a month before they expire, so currently all is fine, but am trying to be proactive. I thought I would go into the VCSA and run the VMCA > Option 2 , like this KB process: http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2147542. My assumption was I would get prompted for all the service cfg info, like I was prompted for when replacing my default VCSA/Machine/Solution cert services last year. I was not prompted for all. I was only prompted for information for the certool.cfg file. I wasn't prompted for the MACHINE_SSL config & subsequent solution user services info. So, what must be done to replace all my expiring certificates? And for crying out loud, why isn't there a KB describing this process? And, if it's the same process as the KB, it would be nice for that KB to share someone in it that it is to be used when replacing expiring certificates (before expiration), as well.

 

 

Thanks for whatever help you all can give!

New to app vol - questions

March 31, 2017, 1:31 pm

So, have they completely removed the "Profile Only" template?  I'm not wild about users being able to install their own applications as that's usually what leads to them breaking their desktops.

I also have UEM in place but I'm thinking that having the writeable volume is interfering with UEM being able to fully capture the various app settings and restore them if need be.

 

Any recommended "best practices" with doing that?

And can I use mandatory profiles with writeable volumes or will that make a mess?

Master and Slave Hosts

I got understanding about the Master and Slave concept in HA. But i didn't understand the election process for the master. How the master cluster selected that:

As per vmware details master Host selected "The host that mounts the greatest number of data stores has an advantage in the election"

What this mean greatest number of datastore? IF we have Shared ISCSI Storage then all Esxi host are attached to that ISCSI storage equally ?

 

"When vSphere HA is enabled for a cluster, all active hosts (those not in standby or maintenance mode, or not disconnected) participate in an election to choose the cluster's master host. The host that mounts the greatest number of datastores has an advantage in the election. Only one master host exists per cluster and all other hosts are slave hosts. If the master host fails, is shut down, or is removed from the cluster a new election is held"

We are experincing a problem where Windows 7 clients connecting to a virtual machine using Vmware View client would generate  2mb .tmp files in the c:\windows\system32\fxstmp directory causing the client machine to run out of disk space.  Has anyone experienced this problem?

 

We first noticed the problem when a handful of users were not able to print.  We discovered that the c: drive was completely full and the directory causing the problems was c:\windows\system32\fxstmp.  Windows Vista or thinclients were not effected, only Windows 7.

Yet another bridge network problem

March 31, 2017, 2:06 pm

I am running VMWare Fusion 7.1.3, my host is a 17" Mac Book Pro running Mac OS X 10.11.6 (El Capitan).

My virtual machine is running Snow Leopard Server (10.6.8). I've given it 4 GB RAM and it is using the default/recommended Hardware version 11.

I am on an Airport Extreme wireless network.

 

I have run into what is apparently a common problem with bridged networking.

 

NAT (share the network with the host) works fine - It can get on the internet, the host machine can ping it and access its web server. It gets an IP from DHCP in the range 172.16.x.x. Only the host can see the VM, I would prefer that other machines on my wifi network be able to see my VM.

 

If I change the network adapter to either bridged Auto Detect or Wi-Fi, my VM gets an IP address from the Airport in the range 10.0.1.x. The host and other machines can now see the VM and access the VM web server by going to http://10.0.1.x. It would appear the VM is getting a valid IP and is connecting to the internal network. However, I go to the Airport Utility and look at the list of connected wireless clients, it does NOT show up there. Should it?

 

My problem - the VM will not connect to the internet when bridged, only when using NAT. Internal machines can see it ok.

 

I've done some searching, the most common answer seems to be that the network won't give 2 IPs to the same machine. This is not my problem, my VM is indeed getting an IP, and is on my internal network. It just won't get to the internet.

 

Any ideas? Security issue with El Capitan? I can't find anything indicating that it has disabled networking.

Lost full screen in Ubuntu guest after upgrade to 12.5.5 Workstation Pro on Windows 10.1

After upgrading to Workstation Pro 12.5.5 the display in my Ubuntu 14.04 guest no longer sizes properly.  I get scroll bars along the edges of the guest window and need to move around to see the contents.  I can change the display size within the Ubuntu settings to fit, but I lose about 30% of my screen real estate.  I downgraded back to 12.5.4 but the problem persists, so it may be with the Ubuntu tools loaded with 12.5.5.  Any suggestions on how to get full use of my display back?

My MacOS VM had 42GB of disk space.

 

Needed more

 

Grew it to 150GB.

 

Rebooted VM and host

 

Only 42GB showing on VM, how do I get it to use the additional 110GB I gave it?

 

Running 10.12.3 on host and vm and Version 8.5.5 (5192483) Fusion.

 

Very frustrating.

Hi to all, :

I'm implementing as DR solution SRM 5.8 with SRA EMC and I have some questions about this installation:

1) what's the difference about "Add Array Manager" between "Add a pair of array managers" or "Add a single array manager"?

2) If LUN sync between two EMC storage is not enable, after add Array Manager, can I enable pair?

 

Thanks

Olá, boa tarde a todos

 

Sou estudante de Análise e Desenvolvimento de Sistemas na FATEC de Guaratinguetá-SP

 

Estou fazendo um trabalho que utiliza a solução VM Ware, porém, sinceramente estou perdido na quantidade de soluções que a empresa disponibiliza, já procurei no canal do youtube da VM Ware e no fórum especificações das soluções da VM Ware e ainda não achei nada conclusivo sobre o que eu realmente desejo apresentar no meu projeto então decidi perguntar aqui no forum.

 

Vou ser o mais sucinto o possível na minha pergunta e espero que alguém possa me auxiliar.


Eu estou desenvolvendo um trabalho cuja solução a qual eu necessito deveria ser basicamente um servidor que virtualize máquinas para terminais burros, e esse servidor faz todo o backup dessas máquinas na nuvem, e o processamento de todas as máquinas é feito pelo servidor, a rede seria feita com cabeamento estruturado e estaria conectada a internet.

Qual a solução VM Ware se adequa a esse cenário?

 

É só isso que eu preciso saber.

 

Espero não estar quebrando nenhuma regra do forum, afinal a empresa VMware não possuí cadastro para estudantes nem tem um campo para cadastro de estudantes, só empresas, pelo menos eu não achei nada para estudantes, só que quando um estudante de TI tem curiosidade sobre as soluções que a empresa disponibiliza é muito difícil chegar a uma conclusão sobre algumas soluções e necessidades só lendo as documentações do site.

 

Um abraço a todos e espero uma resposta.
