I have replaced the motherboard in my computer and now have solid state drive.
I still have the old HD installed in the machine as the F drive.
I can load the VMPlayer but it doesn't find the virtual machine or the SW I had on it.
What do I need to do to get going again?
Hey,
We've in the process of upgrading to Horizon View 7.4 but are having intermittent issues with USB Redirection not pulling through.
The error in the Horizon client just says "USB Redirection is not available for this desktop". Weirdly half the time it works and half of the time it does not, even from the same underlying client.
Impacts multiple users from multiple desktops.
Horizon client 4.7.0
Windows 7 underlying and VDI
GPO set to Automatically Connect on Startup and When Inserted
Never happens on older version of Horizon View (6.x), which is still our production environment. Not sure if relevant but another oddity we see is that if a USB device is plugged in during start up, and redirection is working, the USB device installs itself on every login even when drivers are available. This is another thing that never used to happen on older version of Horizon.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Pete
Hi all,
I followed high level steps as per reference guidance from 2.3 nsx-t installation guide for enhance data path.
All below been deployed on physical x540-t2 network controller.
3 Create an uplink policy.
I created uplink profile with load balanced policy with 2 active uplinks
4 Create a transport zone with N-VDS in the enhanced data path mode.
I created overlay and vlan transport zones in enhanced data path mode
5 Create a host transport node. Configure the enhanced data path N-VDS with logical cores and NUMA
nodes.
I created overlay host transport node however I am not sure what I need to do next and wonder if anyone has come across this deployment.
Thanks
Hello.
I am trying to install owncloud on my VMware ESXi. I click on deploy OVA, then drag it onto the area it says to, then next, I agree to the terms then it says do not vlose window whilst it deploys. The file uploads fine to the server.
In the Tasks area it says importing VApp, with the progress bar, however the progress bar sits at 0%. I gave it 45 minutes last night before giving up and tried again this morning from scratch and gave it 1,5 hours. Still nothing that progress bar does nothing.
Can anyone offer any hints as to what I could try next?

Few days ago, I set the vmware not to be started when os started. Now, when I started vmware, all the menu items are greyed.
I checked the services, all the services started normally. 
What shall I do to make the menu items usable?

Hi all,
I'm working in a workflow to connect or deconnect a ISO file to CDROM.
If the CDROM is connected to iso, I hide the disconnect section and show just the connection section.
If the CDROM is disconnected from ISO, I hide the connection section and show just the disconnected section.
My deal now is ,When I execute the workflow, I want to not execute an action linked to a string variable in presentatiobn menu who list all reportery and file in a datastore ISO
Once I run the workflow, It take some second because of the execution of the action.
I want to execute this action only when I choose to connect the CDROM to iso file.
Any idea
Thanks

Hi All,
I find difficulty when setup trunk between VMware ESXi and HP Switch 5130 Ei series. In my mind, when setup ESXi and Cisco switch this only simple thing, just setup trunk mode on switch port, and allow some VLANs, and voila it will work immediately.
In this case, I have ESXi host connected to 2 HP Switches (stacked already) with 8 cables/wires (4 wires per switch). In vSwtich (using standard vswitch), in NIC teaming, we setup to "Route based on IP Hash" like below:
in HP Switch, we setup BAGG (maybe something like etherchanel or LACP in Cisco),
Here is ss of BAGG group: Aggregation Mode Static
In Bridge Aggregation we setup trunk, and setup PVID 182 (this is vlan of ESXi host). Then, we allow all vlans to pass.
we also setup VLAN 182 in VMware ESXi DCUI.
But in the end, we still can not ping the ESXi host.
Many questions here:
- Please correct if you see something wrong with our configuration?
- Does VMware standard vswitch support BAGG (LACP) mode in HP switch?
- Does LACP support stacked physical switch?
Please support to figure out my problem. if you need any additional info we are happy to share.
any information will be very appreciated.
Best Regards,
Azlan Syah
Does NSX-v 6.4 Edge support BFD?

Hi!
I have
VC 6.7
Horizon 7.7
CentOs 7 1611
The master image joined to MS AD domain by sssd, all fine.
Then i read this:article to configure true SSO:
Configure True SSO on RHEL/CentOS 7.x Desktops
Then i create Floating Automated pool. When pool created, I see customizing status and then error:
Instant Clone agent initialization state error (1): failed (waited 10 seconds)
In AD, i see that objects are created.
I cant reed log /var/log/vmware/viewagent-ngvc.log, because the VM is very fast rebooting.
Any ideas?
Is this configuration supported?
So I am using Kali image in VMware workstation. I am using shared folder from windows 10.The issue is that all the files/folders in the shared folder have executable permission. I did ( 0755 all folders and 0644 all files but it still does have the same permission )
Recently moved all my VMs from Host Win7-64bit to Win8-64bit.
Fresh install of Player v 5.0.2 build-1031769
Computer is Acer Aspire M Intel i5 @ 1.8Ghz
Graphics is Intel HD 4000
When any of the various VMs are started from the Powered Off state, the player window will open and a big black screen will appear where the guest display should be shown. The guest OS does indeed boot, right up to the login screen although with no display visible. If I try to click on the close button in the upper right corner, I get a dialog box that says "The Virtual Machine is Busy". My only option is to end the vmplayer.exe task using task manager. Once I do that, the VM shows state as Powered On in the Library. If I Play it the 2nd time, the VM will resume operating correctly with the proper display at the immediate point where I expected it to be when I ended the vmplayer.exe task earlier.
Presence or absence of Tools in Guest does not affect the problem.
All 3 of my VMs have the exact same behavior. Guest operating Systems are: WinXP-SP3-32bit, Win7-64bit built from the VMware Converter, and Server 2008 from the MS eval ISO.
Any ideas? Once the play/end task/play sequence is performed the VM works correctly. Until it is shutdown or hibernated. A VM restart does not exhibit this symptom. The problem is reproducible with all VMs every time.
Provided vmx for the XP VM and a few logs.
Thanks in advance. I'm so close to having this work it's even more frustrating than if it didn't work at all.

Hi,
I have a 4 x ESXi hosts that suddenly started to Balloon it's HOST RAM. The the main hosts have 512GB RAM each.
The one hosts has 40 logical processort running 23 guests. If powerd down some of the guests leaving me with
arround 13 active guests, the server still balloons the RAM.
If I look at the RAM usage per guest it is arround 200GB. that is with 23 guests running.
The system swap file has it's own datastore location. when the ussage of a host increases it causes several of my guests
to stop responding and I need to do a hard reboot
What bothers me also it that if I go to view the settings it shows in red and I have to select another location firs.
Is this normal.
I am running VMware ESXi, 6.5.0, 10884925 and the guest OS on servers are mainly Windows 2012.
Your help would be appreciated

Hi,
I'm trying to restore single files from VDP backup of linux machines (vSphere Data Protection Linux File Level Restore - VMware vSphere Blog).
Everything is at the most recent release. When I try to mount the backup in the flash client (https://VDP_APPLIANCE:8543/flr) I get this error:
Failed to get disks: Failed to determine the partition type. Verify that all the disks on the VM have valid/supported partitions
I tried with nodes with various disk structures, but the error is always the same:

VDP manual says that at least ext4 (first try) should be supported. By the way, is it possible that XFS (the default RedHat filesystem) is not supported at all?
Thank you very much!
