Thanks, I did a new thread and hopefully added what I can


Event: Download operation completed with error : InternalError

$

I am new to Mirage and have been successful in assigning base layers to multiple machines, however our most recent base layer just seems to get stuck in some sort of loop.  Machines will get to 93% Initializing Layer Update, hang there for a while then hit 100%.  The machine will get to 40% on Assign base layer, error and start over.  The exception listed in the error is "InternalError".  I am not 100% sure where to start troubleshooting this.  I can go back and use an older base but I would like to know what may have happened to cause this, what logs could help, etc.

 

Any information would be greatly appreciated!

 

Thanks,

Brad

Re: svMotioning VMs based off of host

Correct, the VM are grouped by ESXi name.

In each of the groups there is a Group property that contains all the VM running on that ESXi node.

 

Correct, the script will wait till all svMotions are completed before continuing and starting the next batch.

 

Let me see how I can adapt this to always start a svMotion for each ESXi on which there is none running.

Thanks @jmatz135!

 

I'm not a storage guy either :-), so I'll try to read up a bit on oplocks and related topics. I did read something about oplock timeouts which default to 35 seconds. Do any of you happen to see 35-second delays between subsequent lines in UEM log files?

VMWare Workstation 12 won't install on Win 10 x64 Build 16226-Error 1935 for Visual C++ 2008

On build 16226 of Win 10 x64, VMWare Workstation 12 won't install.  It get hung up on installing the Visual C++ 2008 Redist package.  There's tons of threads about VMWare install failing on this error and even more on the Visual C++ 2008 in general.  None of the fixes have worked.

 

Product: Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable - x86 9.0.30729.6161 -- Error 1935.An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC90.ATL,version="9.0.30729.6161",publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",processorArchitecture="x86",type="win32"'. Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT: 0x800736B3. assembly interface: IAssemblyCacheItem, function: Commit, component: {03329364-ED3E-3EF1-ACB0-C1E9F5282929}

 

One could say this is a Microsoft problem, but VMWare Workstation is the only program that wants to install this 10 year old package and guess what, Microsoft isn't likely going to fix this...

Re: PowerCli - Change Harddisk type from IDE to SCSI

Thanks a lot LucD .. it worked perfectly for me except for the new scsi controller that i did not include in my script .. one question why did you include this line to add a new SCSI controller of TypeVirtualLsiLogic? The current controller type shows as LSI logic parallel .. is there any need to change it to another type or is there a need to re-create the controller? Thanks

Your solution worked for me on:
Debian 9 stretch; Gnome ;  Kernel 4.9.0-3-amd64; VMware-Workstation-Full 12.5.2-4638234.x86_64; HP Zbook 17 G3

 

Thank-you two for the scripts!

I have both listed. Also all my billing categories are vCAN and Enterprise Plus. I had trouble setting up this UM and getting it working properly. I ended up opening a support ticket with VMware.

Re: vSAN Adding Glance Images ( http error Gone 410 )

$

I am adding a shared NAS store to all hosts in the Compute Cluster to minimize vSAN issues first while I try and get rid of the error.

 

I also have another post about glance images not even working as when they are launched the boot screen displays "No Operating System Found" which means the image is not getting loaded or the VIO VM cannot reach or see the glance image. Hopefully vSAN storage and NAS shared storage will fix this as this was the main reason why I decided to move to vSAN.

 

Ill post the glance-api logs shortly as I am just waiting for the VIO services to restarts as that takes about 20 minutes.

Making a movie of a Windows VM on a Linux host

Hi,

 

I found a really old webpage of Workstation 5 that speaks of a "VM>Capture Movie" option with a "VM>Capture Screen" also.  At least on Linux and Workstation 12 I see no such option.  I have "VM>Capture Screen" only.

 

Is it impossible to capture a movie of a Windows 7 VM on a Linux VMWare Worstation 12 machine ?

 

Cheers,

Steve

Re: Moving to new VM by reattaching large vmdk

Can you please assist further and respond to my previous questions posted?

 

What if I create new VM with the same name as the original while I disable original VM and unregister it.

 

Then I will delete all files from original VM folder except for large disk vmdk and replace them with new files from new VM folder.

 

Then I will re register old VM back again?

 

Will this work?

OK I have some headway.

 

Now the virtual image size is the same as the example as before it was displaying a zero size. However STILL the Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Image states "Operating System Not Found "!!!!

Ok I got it working by changing to a shared NAS Datastore and then creating an /images folder on the NAS datastore. Now the glance images are being stored on the NAS device which is fine however when I try and boot an image every image says "Operating System Not Found "

Re: vMotion Gets Auto Enabled at Random on Management Port Group - Is there a reason?

I'm having the exact same issue in my home lab. 3 NUCs with vSAN, 6.5 all around with external PSC all at current code. Every time I reconfigure for HA, it will put check the vmotion box on the management interface and vMotions start failing. I've run this setup for nearly a year without this issue and it just started happening a week or so ago. Anyone have any updates on solutions you may have found? Thanks!

Using Fusion 8.5.3 can not download any updates for windows 7

I installed windows 7 on fusion 8.5 some months ago and use it just infrequently just for a couple of programs but I would like to install all available updates for windows 7 from MS website via windows controller centre: check for updates but the updater just checking for updates for hours and nothing is happening. I know using Mozilla Firefox I can access the Internet and download files so the access works, but why I can not download updates? I run fusion on MBP 15" 2017 with Mac OS Sierra latest. The screen shot showing the updated running circles for hours is below.

 

Trying to update windows defender I got a message window with the error number (see below screenshot) so something is preventing windows accessing the internet, but what?

 

On my older MBP 13" I have similar setup and the windows 7 updates no problem. I compared all??possible??? settings and they look same.

 

Thanks in advance for any advice.

In addition I was also using the glance image-create  command. I used openstack image create and that worked..Not sure if that command was the issue.

That feature was removed several major releases ago. Based on this thread, it was removed in Workstation 9.

 

Where is the "capture movie" menu option ?

 

I remember using it (maybe on version 6) many years ago on a 32-bit Windows XP host. The playback required a codec download from VMware if the target machine doesn't have VMware Workstation.

Thanks blue,

 

So the concept of making a movie of a VM in Linux after perhaps 2010 or so is a completely dead concept...

 

Thanks.

Re: vcpu-0 Error Message when powering up VMware WorkStation 12.7 Version

It would help if you could attach the log file C:\Users\Swamp\Documents\Virtual Machines\DOS\vmware.log

 

There is an attach link at the lower right hand side of this reply box. There would also be log files of previous runs in the same folder. They would be named vmware-n.log where n is a number 0 to 5.

 

Not sure why you mentioned the SANdisk flash drive because based on the folder location of the log, it looks like you running the VM from the disk of the HP Envy m7.

 

It doesn't hurt nor cost a single dime to check/verify again whether Intel Virtualization Technology is enabled in the BIOS.

 

Based on the HP Envy m7 User Guide, you enter the BIOS by pressing the ESC key quickly upon power up and then press F10.
