I want update the firmware off the nics or the driver  or both, but when i execute  esxcli network nic get -n vmnic0 i get

Hi,

 

My customer have HA edge gateway configured to size compact. Now they need more resources (ram and cpu) to edge.

 

I try to find some articles about it but I could not find any. 

 

Is it possible just increasing RAM/CPU to edge gateway VM or  somehow change edge gateway configuration size from compact to large?

 

Thanks,

 

Ano

Hello,

iam having a problem with a game. I want to run it in a virtual machine but it refuses to work. And it writes error: "Sorry, this application cannot run under a virtual machine" . The game is running only in windows 10 and the only way i will touch windows 10 is safely with a stick and as a virtual machine. So i cant install it to my machine.

 

I have tried a few tutorials how to fix it but non of them seems to work for me.

 

I Tried:

How To Fix Sorry, This Application Cannot Be Run Under A Virtual Machine Error - YouTube

I Tried setting this to the .vmx file and uninstaling VmWare tools.

isolation.tools.getPtrLocation.disable = “TRUE”

isolation.tools.setPtrLocation.disable = “TRUE”

isolation.tools.setVersion.disable = “TRUE”

isolation.tools.getVersion.disable = “TRUE”

monitor_control.disable_directexec = “TRUE”

monitor_control.disable_chksimd = “TRUE”

monitor_control.disable_ntreloc = “TRUE”

Could someone help me? Thanks for any advice.

VMWare partition created with partedUtil has the wrong size (smaller)

I have something very strange with ESXi 4.1. OK I know ESXi 4.1 is very old, so please stop reading my question if this is insulting your mind ! ;-)

 

Now if you continue reading, I create a partition with a size of 2.2 TB :

 

# partedUtil set "/vmfs/devices/disks/naa.600a0b800074c3a1000005e45ae939ad" "1 128 4684283903 251 0"
0 0 0 0

1 128 4684283903 251 0

 

But what I get is a 185 GB only partition ???

 

# partedUtil get "/vmfs/devices/disks/naa.600a0b800074c3a1000005e45ae939ad"
291583 255 63 4684283904

1 128 389316607 251 0

 

I never saw that, so if anyone had an idea on why it happens, it would be great :-)

Thanks a lot in advance for any help

Hello All,

 

I hope you are doing good. I need your advice. I have to Upgrade vSphere 5.5 to 6.5 with in data center. In current infra approx 70% of hardware is out of life/support. New infra which i am supposed to receive will have different CPU class so I will be requiring the downtime for approx every VM in ordinary vSphere upgrade process. To avoid downtime i want to use VMware HCX. My concern is "can i use VMware HCX as on premises to on permisis or on prem to cloud and then on prem? Would it be recommended method? Please share if you have any another thought/ idea about same. I am looking forward for your reply.

 

Thanks

Latest version of ESXi is not compatible with my old Dell T7400. 4.1 installs and runs, but the license number I got for my 6.7 download won't work with my 4.1 install.

Is it possible to still get a license for 4.1?

Thanks,

Hi All,
We are planning to upgrade below environment please suggest us the best possible path with minimum downtime

Current environment: 50 zero client users
VMware VDI version 5.2
vSphere 5.5
2x connection servers
1x security server
1x composer server
All running on server 2008R2

Target Environment:
VMware VDI Version 7.3.2
vSphere 6.5
And all management servers to Server 2012R2

 

i have verified the upgrade matrix and there is no direct upgrade path from 5.2 to 7.3, we need to upgrade to 5.3 then 7.3.

However we also planing to upgrade the OS as well. Hence we are  looking at build new VDI management servers and migrate the VDI golden image and desktops.

Thanks

Hi,

I have few questions in my mind

 

HW/SW INFO

2 Sites HQ and BRANCH

ESXi 6.7

VLAN DMZ 20

VLAN SVR 30

VLAN USR 40

VLAN VMOTION 80

VLAN MGMT 100

Each ESXi has 2x10GB NIC for VM traffic and 2x1GB for vMotion + Management traffic

Create  2x vSwitches (vSwitch0 for vMotion+management) and (vSwitch1 for vm)

Cisco Switch 3650

 

QUESTIONS

  1. let say I have 2 sites HQ and BRANCH. Both have different public ip.

Should I use same vlan, if I want to failover vm between sites and vm should retain their ip

  1. I enable Jumbo frame globally in Cisco switch

I set jumbo frame MTU to 9000 on vmkernel0 and vSwitch0 (for vMotion+Management)

but set MTU 1500 for vmkernel1 vSwitch1 (for VM network)
Should I set jumbo frame MTU 9000 for VM network as well?

 

thanks

hi community,

 

Am I able to do this.

 

I have a spear server and wanted to have 8 SSD drives in a RAID 5 , and have a quad network card installed. can I attach the dell blade servers in a FX2s chassis directly to the other server for storage for eg like a iSCSI. would that work over the ethernet so I can directly connect them together without a switch or a router, and use the RAID 5 storage on the other server to install VMs onto.

Blue screen after vm initialization Windows 7

May 6, 2018, 5:54 pm

Hello, I'm facing a blue screen everytime I run my ubuntu server 16.04 i386 on VMWare(guest).

My host machine is Windows 7.

I'm running a i386 image because when I try to run amd64 it says my machine is not 64 bits, which is weird.

 

Apart from that I never get this blue screen, it only happens when I try to run my vm.

The error code is always the same: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

BCCode: d1

BCP1: 0000000000000000

BCP2: 0000000000000002

BCP3: 0000000000000008

BCP4: 0000000000000000

OS Version: 6_1_7601

Service Pack: 1_0

Product: 768_1

 

DM Log Collector and MSInfo attached.

On the event viewer I can match the time at which my computer crashed and it has to do with the network card. I see that it tries to get a dhcp and fails.

BlueScreen view shows me that the file causing the problem is ntoskrnl.exe.

Sometimes igdkmd64.sys appears also.

 

Things I've tried:

-Boot Windows only with antivirus. Still crashes when I try to initialize virtual machine on VMWare.

-Desintall all network drivers in order for Windows to natively load them at startup. Still crashes with vm.

-Updated all network drivers with Driver Easy software. Still crashes with vm.

-Ran verifier /reset and cmd and it displayed "No configured changed". Still crashes with vm.

-HP shows that I don't have Driver Encryption enabled so I didn't change anything there.

 

If someone could please help me, I'm desperate and don't know what to do.

I really need to run vmware with ubuntu server 16.04.

I don't have any other virtualization software installed.
