Create a virtual machine of OS X

Hi! I need some help. I'm trying to create a virtual machine with OS X Yosemite installed. I have my macbook and I download an original version of OS X Yosemite from the app store. Now I want to install this OS on a virtual machine (using for example VirtualBox "www.virtualbox.org" because is the virtual machine software that I use) for try some things, install some apps, do a internal network with other machines and try some configurations, but I don't want to break my macbook (reinstall the OS is so boring). Can you give me some instructions or any manual to do this.
Thank you very much!

Boot Camp is not a Virtualization scheme -- it is only a set of drivers for the Mac-specific Hardware so that Windows can run nativley.
I think you should be asking VMWare whether you can run that VMWare program on a Mac, and how to install it. That is where you will need to turn for support if you run into problems.

"Low Memory Warning" and "fails to create a virtual machine"

From ide.conf, I learnt:
If you are getting the 'Low Memory Warning' Message Dialog while running JDeveloper, please increase the -Xmx value below from the default 768M to something greater, like 1024M or 1250M. If after increasing the value, JDeveloper is no longer starting up because it fails to create a virtual machine, then please reduce the modified -Xmx value.
However,
If I set it to a bigger value, say 512M, it fails to create a virtual machine.
If I set it to a smaller value, say 400M, it throws Low Memory Warning after a short while.
So I do not know how to do. Total physical memory of my box is 4G. Free physical user memory after starting jdev is 1.5G.

512M isn't bigger, the default (according to your reading) is 768M...
I just tried with JDeveloper 11.1.2.2.0 (64-bit machine, but using 32-bit JVM) - works fine with 1024M - just to confirm that my changes are working, 5024M does give me "unable to create virtual machine"
Have you messed about with other settings?

Could not create JVM Virtual machine(While starting soa managed server)?

Hi,
While starting managed server I am getting following errors:
Could not commit 1048576KB heap memory at 0x0000000004790000.
Could not create JVM Virtual machine.
After above error SOA managed server is to be down.
Please help me that how can i resolve this issue.
Thanks
Dharm

Hi Dharm,
This is typically printed when we are short on memory.
What is OS version and JDK being using here ? 32bit or 64bit ?
Current Xms and Xmx values ?
Thanks,

�Unable to create the virtual machine. The error was -4�

I have a VS2003 C# application, which call JACE (a JNI wrapper) through C++ mixed mode to use JAVA object�s functions.
Because the natural of our JAVA program it must be able to reach maximum heap size of 512MB, we set it during the startup of JVM by using �-Xmx512M� parameter.
It worked well with a small PC (Dell Optiplex GX750 and Shuttle Xpc ) with only 512MB physical memory. We have about 50 machines running the application in the production.
Recently, one of our customers installs the application to a larger PC ( Shuttle Xpc with different model), which has 1 GB of physical memory. The application started throw exception from JVM. The error message is �Unable to create the virtual machine. The error was -4�. I checked with JNI return code and found that -4 mean �not enough memory�.
I did some experiment by running the application with 2GB PC, 1 GB PC, 1GB laptop, 512MB PC. I don�t found relationship between how much �maximum heap size� can be assigned and how much �physical memory� is available (reading from task manager). The 2GB machine can take only 128MB of �maximum heap size� However, 1GB machine can take up to 300MB of �maximum heap size�.
I also use program like ImageJ (http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/) to test maximum heap size for it. I found that ImageJ can take 512MB maximum heap size without problem. It can even take 1024MB of maximum heap size.
I have created a small program to duplicate this problem. Although it use exact the same code to start JVM up, it can go up to 650MB heap size for both 2GB and 1GB PC.
This is puzzling. Does anyone know what are factors determine how much �maximum heap size� can be set for JVM from JNI?
Software used
Windows XP SP2
Visual studio.net 2003 SP1 (the problem also occurred without SP1)
.NET Framework 1.1 SP1
JACE 1.1rc1_05
JRE 1.5.07 (also tested with JRE 1.5.09 and 1.6.0 beta)

Do you resolve the problem? If so what was the fix?
I have been getting the Java Virtual Machine Launcher error message Could not create the virtual machine when attempting to run an Oracle application that uses JNLP via a browser. Even clicking on componets such as javaw.exe produces the error message. In conjunction with receiving the error message, the application that I am working with will not launch.
I had JRE 5u10 and J2RE 1.4.2u13 installed and thought that installing JDK 5u17 may resolve the issue. I removed JRE 5u10 and J2RE 1.4.2u13 and installed JDK 5u17 (and the included JRE 5u17.) The error message was still there.
I have unistalled (via Add/Remove programs) and reinstalled (via both Win off-line and on-line) JDK 5u17 and JRE 5u17 many times.
During the uninstalls I have received a Java Web Start 1.5.0_17 bad installation error invoking JVM error message.
I have restarted the machine also.
There are some remains of J2RE 1.4.2u13 still on the machine even after the 1.4.2u13 uninstall. The Java\j2re1.4.2_13\lib folder remains.
I am running Win XP SP2 and IE6 SP2.
Note: I cannot use Java 6 since the application that I am working with is Java 5 based.

Cannot create guest virtual machine with Solaris 10 SPARC in Oracle VM 2.2

Dear All,
I try many times to create guest virtual machine with Solaris 10 SPARC but not get success.
When I created it already and then I start the Power On button, it run normally but the Console button cannot click on (hide). After that the virtual machine running abit then it change status to Powered Off.
Please kindly give advice for this.
Thanks and regards,
Heng

I storgly doubt, VMware player is available for Solaris 10 SPARC version.
Solaris 10 is not a comercial product, like ubuntu, windows, MAC etc... It's really for a server.
That's the reason still I hate Solaris 11 as a desktop. You have very limited product/software.... This may change for Solaris 11, but U can't expect one for Solaris 10.

"Could not create Java virtual machine" for several XP SP3 clients

Hi,
In this last year I got the message "could not create java virtual machine",
(suddenly, after several mounths without any kind of problem),
on 10-15 XP SP3 clients in our lan, lan in which all the 200 clients (90% XP SP3)
have this application installed.
Every time the solution seems to be different:
sometimes the cause is a virus, sometimes i have to disinstall all Java components
and reinstall only the Java RE 6.0_23 (used by the application),
sometimes I have to make also a system registry cleaning for Java components,
only few times was enough to clear the Java cash, change the kind of Java network connection,
delete the temporary files...
In two situations the problem was solved changing UltraVnc with RealVnc
and only once the user solved himself restarting the computer...
I'd like to know which is the meaning of this message and which steps is better
to follow in order to solve the problem in the shortest time.
Thank You

Thank you
for anwering my question !
Anyway, in all the 10-15 cases I solved this problem, I hadn't to change the amount of RAM...
never... and, once solved, the computer client is ok and the application works without subsequent problems...
So, as I said, i can solve the problem without Knowing the real reason, and often after several
hours... (you can read in my previous comment about a lot of differences solutions...)
The matter is... that I can't understand "how and why" I solve the problem...
Bye

Error while installing SOA, "Could not create java virtual machine"

I am trying to install SOA latest release, but am getting an error stating "Could not create java virtual machine" and just that. No log, nothing. Could anybody help me out on this?

Is JRE installed on your machine?
If yes it may get corrupted, try to remove and reinstall jre again. Then try to install SOA.

Could Not Create Java Virtual Machine when lauching PS3 Meadis server

I suddenly get the following error message when trying to launch the PS3 Media Server, " COULD NOT CREATE JAVA VIRTUAL MACHINE". I have tried uninstalling and installing both Java and the PS3 Media Server. Nothing seems to work. Any ideas or advice?

You changed something on your machine. Might help to remember what.
But to start with you first figure out if java itself is working. If it is then it is problem with the application and not java.

Unrecognized option -a could not create Java Virtual Machine..?

while using "java -classpath <axis jar files> -a <mywsdlfile>
i got the error message as 'Unrecognized option -a could not create Java Virtual Machine"
plz help me how to get rid of this?? i've successfully installed axis1.4 & tomcat6.

Sorry, I thought that you meant to pass "-a" to the java tool and not the WSDL2JAVA tool. "-a" is definitely a valid option for WSDL2Java.
But your error indicates that it is indeed trying to pass "-a" as an option to java, which is why the error is "unable to create Java Virtual Machine".
Try using the long format for the "-a" option which is "--async". (http://ws.apache.org/axis2/tools/1_0/CodegenToolReference.html).
"java classpath pathToJAR/Filename org.apache.axis.wsdl.WSDL2Java --async pathToWsdl/WsdlFilename"

Many thanks and regards,

Hello Max,
many thanks for your reply and your in my case absolutely correct answer!
In respect to your solution proposal I have renamed my Analysis-workspace folder to "Analysis-workspace-V0"
After I have started the Design Studio 1.2 SP1 a new Analysis workspace folder was created with the typical standard name "Analysis-workspace"
So I have my old Design Studio Application and an new empty Analysis folder.
By the way, in my case in addition to the folder rename it was necessary to change the -Xmx Value (SapDesignStudio.ini File) a little bit lower as in standard (in the DS1.2 SP1 setting) 1024m. To become not the Message "Failed to create Java Virtual Machine" I have changed the -Xmx Value from 1024m to 512m.
Now I´m able to start the Design Studio 1.2 SP1 as expected without Message and without breaks down after 5-6 seconds during the startup.
Thanks again!
Best regards,
Michael

Failed to create Java Virtual Machine

Hi All,
I am facing Failed to create java virtual machine error in SAP Lumira 1.23 while opening it.
I need to uninstall it and install again whenever I want to use it. but this is not correct solution of it.
Please suggest the solution for this issue.

Good morning, Sheetal - We had the same problem. We have a number of Windows 7 32-bit PCs. I opened a message with SAP, and here is their guidance. If you look at Note 2124755, it will refer you to another note, Note 1951035. IN this note, it says you need to download the Java Access Bridge for Microsoft Operating System 2.01 from Oracle. The URL is in the Note 1951035. I downloaded the one for the manual installation. Then, once you have extracted the files from the ZIP file, here is where I placed them:
Copy WindowsAccessBridge.dll to %WINDOWSHOME%\SYSTEM32
Copy JavaAccessBridge.dll and JAWTAccessBridge.dll to
C:\Program Files\SAP Lumira\Desktop\jre\bin
Copy accessibility.properties to C:\Program Files\SAP Lumira\Desktop\jre\lib
Copy access-bridge.jar and jaccess-1_2.jar, jaccess-1_3.jar and jaccess-1_4.jar to
C:\Program Files\SAP Lumira\Desktop\jre\lib\ext
For good measure, I usually reboot the PC afterwards. Then you should no longer get the error message "Failed to create the Java Virtual Machine".
I hope that helps!

Can't create a Virtual Machine on new host - Error (2915)

This error is appearing when a Virtual Machine is created from scratch, or from a template. I've tried all of the recommendations I can find. All updates are in place, VMM reports agents are current, server is "OK". VMM Agent is running. Rebooted
many times.
Error (2915)
The Windows Remote Management (WS-Management) service cannot process the request. The object was not found on the server (xxxxxx).
WinRM: URL: [http://xxxxx:5985], Verb: [GET], Resource: [http://schemas.microsoft.com/wbem/wsman/1/wmi/root/virtualization/v2/Scvmm_EthernetSwitchPortInternalSettingData?InstanceID=Microsoft:Definition\1f59a509-a6ba-4aba-8504-b29d542d44bb\Default]

Recommended Action
Ensure that the VMM agent is installed and running. If the error persists, restart the virtualization server (xxxxx) and then try the operation again.
This error can also happen due to an older version of the VMM agent on the virtualization server. Ensure that the VMM agent is upgraded to the latest version, and then try the operation again.

Can't create new virtual machine with Virt-manager

After going through the whole setup, I would get this error through backtrace:
File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/netlist.py", line 346, in validate_network
netobj.start()
File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/network.py", line 104, in start
self._backend.create()
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 2755, in create
if ret == -1: raise libvirtError ('virNetworkCreate() failed', net=self)
libvirtError: Unable to create bridge virbr0: File exists
Hence, I attempted to follow https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bridge_with_netctl to set up my network bridge and try again, and I'd still get the same error.
I also tried to do sudo virt-manager but I'd get:
** (virt-manager:16835): WARNING **: Could not open X display
No protocol specified
(virt-manager:16835): Gdk-ERROR **: error: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set in the environment.
I want to get KVM working using a gui and so I choice virt-manager, but now I'm stuck and don't know where to go from here.
