thanks for reply

it seems to me that i did that some years ago with mbr disk, but perhaps i made a mistake in my memory

so is there a solution to simply modify the disk to make it run on a netbook ?

I get this error when the kernel extension isn't loaded.

 

Once it's loaded, I get the "physical memory" error as described above and in that thread.

 

Check if your kernel extension is loaded with "kextstat"

 

xbytez@donglebookpro ~ % kextstat | grep vmware

  115    0 0xffffff7f9f049000 0x4000     0x4000     com.vmware.kext.vmioplug.19.5.0 (19.5.0) 93055748-9D70-3575-B2E3-DDF295C269B4 <61 6 5 3 1>

Dell Esxi 7.0 upgrade files no longer available

In the past, when Dell provided their version of an update to Esxi, you could download it in the form of a zip file. You then applied it in this manner (from the esxi command line):

esxcli software profile update -d /VMware-VMvisor-Installer-7.0.0-15843807.x86_64-DellEMC_Customized-A00.zip -p DEL-ESXi-700_15843807-A00

When you go to the Dell website and attempt to download the latest version (Version 7.0, A02), the files are no longer there and, instead you are met with this message:

"Dell EMC has migrated the latest revision of the Dell customized ESXi images with customized drivers to VMware's website. This change aligns with industry-standard practices and brings the Dell EMC-customized image to the same location as our competitors. For customers who manage heterogeneous fleets, this simplifies the procurement of SW images as they will all be housed in one location. Please go to your my.vmware.com license portal or click the link below to be redirected now. Older revisions of these images can be downloaded from www.dell.com/support in case there is a requirement

ISO Image Link: https://my.vmware.com/en/web/vmware/downloads/details?downloadGroup=OEM-ESXI70GA-DELLEMC&productId=974"

One you go to the link provided, you no longer have any file available except the ISO file. I know of no way to upgrade from the command line via the ISO file.

Any ideas?

SEG KCD Certificate Issues

$
0
0

Hi All,

 

I'm hoping someone has run into this before as I've been overthinking and driving myself crazy trying to figure it out.

 

I'm working on setting up SEGv2 on UAG KCD.

 

We are continuing to run into this error:

Unable to get Peer Certificate Chain, won't be able to determine UPN. Error: peer not authenticated

 

I've been told that the Client Chain that needs to be uploaded is the full chain for your CA, which I have done several times. My understanding is that the device presents your user certificate to the SEG, and the SEG compares that to the truststore.

 

I know that those certificates live in the truststore.jks but beyond that and confirming the certs are present in there I have had zero luck.

 

Has anyone run into this and solved it?

thanks for the documentation

i would just like to say that it's not a vmdk file, the installation and the partitions seems to be like on a physical machine

i have just made an experiment, i booted with supergrub and i manage to boot on this key

so perhaps it's possible to boot with just by modifying something in the efi partition ?

Does not work, will not work.  Wait for the update to the tech preview coming sometime in July.

Your process is right.  As for the version issues, I know there was a defect with the installer that didn't properly do a version check, so that's probably part of the problem.

It seems to me that all information provided by VMware regarding V2P is rather outdated (6+ years old). In addition, the legalese in the Note of this VMware Knowledge Base article is quite frightening. Could some Moderator please enlighten us whether V2P is some sort of a taboo issue (and perhaps a non-desirable topic to raise in this Community) and whether performing V2P is actually legal or not and under which circumstances?

I only recommended reading those posts. I have not added actions to do.

I don't think there is anything else to add.

It’s not for moderators to say one way or another. We “police” what we know is illegal, such as running MacOS on a Windows PC with a hacked copy of Workstation, but I personally see no reason for us to get involved in this topic - perhaps another moderator will think differently though.

I updated our test ENV vcenter from 6.5 to 7.0

I ran into this error with the proxy setting

Disabling the proxy and manually putting the proxy settings via SSH into /etc/wgetrc allowed me to update to the latest vcenter 7.0 build

 

thanks

below what you can do:

 

Downloading Dell EMC customized ESXi image from VMware site

To download the ESXi image, do the following 

  1. Go to my.vmware.com and log in with your account credentials. 
  2. Select View & Download products> All Products and then click the View Download Components link of VMware vSphere.
  3. Select the image version from the Select Version list.

sorry, i didn't know it was illegal

it was just a question to make an experiment

it's true that nowodays, virtualization is probably sufficent in most of case

so it's not a problem at all

thanks for your answers

Ошибка в консолидации и Veeam

$

Добрый день. Имеется два сервера - файловый сервер  и бекап сервер с Veeam . Бекап сервер производил снепшоты файлового сервера, в один из дней часть снепшотов были "в грязную" удалены с диска бекап сервера, что естественно было ошибкой. Через некоторый промежуток времени файловый сервер запросил консолидацию в vmware, но консолидация происходила с ошибкой. После отключения бекап сервера консолидация прошла успешно (отключение бекап сервера видимо тоже было ошибкой), но после этого бекап сервер перестал запускаться с ошибкой:

Failed to start the virtual machine.

Cannot open the disk '/vmfs/volumes/файловый сервер.vmdk' or one of the snapshot disks it depends on.

Failed to lock the file

Module Disk power on failed.

Если отключить файлоый сервер, то бекап сервер начинает запускаться, то есть одноврменно сервера не запускаются.

Как выйти из этой ситуации с минимальными потерями? В случае удаления бекап сервера и настройки его заново это может привести к ошибкам в работе файлового сервера?

Буду рад любой помощи, спасибо!

He ask for an upgrade ZIP rather than an ISO and he took notice that the ISO is now also available on vmware.com.   Notice: 2 days ago the ISO was also on dell.com as always.

VMWare not compatible with Windows 10 2004 upgrade

$

Hi all,

 

Running W10 Pro x64. Today I started with the 2004 update. During the update I got the message that VMWare had to be uninstalled as it is not compatible with Windows 10. I thought this was nonsense as it has allways been working well and still does. I purchased it and I use it, so uninstalling was no option. I wasn't able to continue the update process without uninstalling VMWare, so I quitted the update.

So the 2004 update is no option for me.

I hope I can skip this one and receive other updates. Let's wait and see.

I'm using the VMWare Pro 12 version.

Updating this to 15.5 is no option as it will cost me $ 150,-, and the current version 12 works fine.

 

Any of you had the same problem?

All VMs Are a Blank Screen after Workstation Pro Update

Workstation Pro Version: 15.5.6 build-16341506 on Windows 10 2004

ESXi Version: 7.0.0 (Build 16324942)

 

After applying the most recent Worksation update, all my VMs show nothing but a black screen in Workstation Pro. It doesn't matter if they are local or remote VMs, or whether they are Windows, Linux. I can't even see the console on a headless Linux server VM.

 

I have an another device with Workstation Pro 15.5.2 build-15785246 running on a Linux laptop and everything is functioning normally.

 

Is there a way to uninstall a Workstation Pro update?
