Daqpad 6507 with virtual machine

I am trying to use the NI DAQPAD 6507 in a Windows XP Professional virtual machine (32 bit). The host OS is Windows 7 64 bit. I can see the DAQPAD but it just doesn't seem to want to talk...at least not properly. Anyone have any experience with this or any ideas?
Thanks.

Hello Skeptical,
I've made some research about this and I've happens that DAQ devices are not supported in virtualized OSes like Windows XP Mode. This is because the way USB communication is handled on virtualized OSes is typically only optimized for Human Interface Devices or Mass Storage devices and not devices that require much higher performance, such as USB DAQ devices.
Here some references:
"Are NI Products Supported on Virtual Machines (VMs)?"

Lion 10.7.4 issues with Virtual Machines

Hi,
I'm having lot of issues with virtual machines (both Parallels and VMWare)
since having update to lion 10.7.4.
I make myself:
If I switch on Mac OS a run any vitrual machine software
I can run Windows XP and Ubuntu at same time with no issue and very fluently.
But, if I switch on Mac OS and start using Eclipse, Safari 5.2 and other production stuff and
want to use vmware or paralles
they become unusable even if I quit all the tasks ans "purge" memory.
(eg: if i click start button on windows I have to wait seconds before the start menu pops up)
Any Idea?
I have MacBook Pro 13 Unibody mid 2009 with SSD Drive AND 4GB of RAM
and I had no such issues with Lion 10.7.3

No, it wouldn't. 2.5 GB of free RAM could consist of 5 chunks of 500 MB of contiguous RAM, separated by RAM allocated by other processes.
Here is a hypothetical memory map. Assume a is application memory, o is operating system memory, and - is free memory.
boot:           oooo--------------
run app1:    ooooaao-----------
run app2:    ooooaaoaaaaaaoo---quit app1:   oooo---aaaaaaoo---
Maybe there is some issue in the way 10.7.4, in some perticolar situations, handle the process of freeing RAM.
What you can't accept, and I don't know why, is that before the update to 10.7.4 everithing was fine.
I don't know why you don't beleve me.
There is nothing in the 10.7.4 update description that mentions a re-write of the virtual memory system. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5167
I just worte here to see if someone could give any advice to do further invesigations.
I know the price of upgrading RAM but I think that this would be a "microsoft like" solution
and I'm trying to find what service or task or whatever is creating this issue.
The only thing "Microsoft like" about buying more RAM is the fact that you need it to run your Microsoft operating systems. It has been this way as long as I can remember. I upgraded my MacBook to 4 GB RAM in 2008 just so I could run Windows more easily.
Perhaps you have your virtual memory settings too high. Depending on what you are doing in the VM, you may not need the default settings. XP will run low-intensity tasks with a 500 MB VM size. It will run just about anything in 1 GB. Linux should run fine in the same range too.

Powerbuilder with Virtual Machine / Build Machine environment

We are in the process of upgrading our from Powerbuilder 10.5 to Powerbuilder 12.5, and upgrading our virtual machines from Windows 2003 to Windows Server 2008.
We work in a virtual machine environment, connecting through Citrix -- multiple virtual developer desktops are set up, and we have one machine that serves as a formal "build" machine. The build machine uses Powergen to do a formal Powerbuilder build from within a controlled environment.
We have purchased one Powerbuilder 12.6 license per developer. But I can't figure out how to set up the licensing to let everyone work under the new platform. The other pieces seem to work fine (including version control licenses that use a license server and Powergen); not sure why Powerbuilder setup seems so complicated.
We have set up a served license model, per instructions. The server seems to serve up licenses fine, but they never seem to be released. It seems that one license is taken up for each developer, for each virtual machine. If there's no way to release it when you're done on a particular VM, we go through the licenses pretty quickly.
Under this scenario, even if a developer ONLY needs to connect into one VM for development, and needs to be able to do a formal build on a different non-developer machine, it seems that I'd have to purchase two licenses (when you multiply this by the # of developers involved, the cost adds up pretty quickly)? That can't be right, is it?
For our Source control licenses (which, I believe also use Sysam or something similar), it is also based on the # of developers. When a developer moves from one machine to another (closes the connection to source control), the license is "released", so that the same user can grab it from a different machine. We can set up the amount of time after which the license can be released. It's still based on a named user (registered in the server), and is not a floating point license; it just gives the developers some flexibility so that they can get their work done.
How can I set up Powerbuilder 12.6 and/or Sysam to be able to do something similar without having to buy one license per (developer, VM) combination?
Thanks in advance
Alok Mehta

Thank you to everyone that responded.
Based on the responses above, I just wanted to follow up with my own thoughts and my plan of action.
First, my current plan of action...
1) Each developer in our shop will run PB off of a single machine only (either virtual or desktop).
2) Following Paul Horan's suggestion,
> What we did at my company was setup a dedicated physical build machine - not
> a VM, but a physical box using a local unserved license.
we will allocate a single license for a physical box so that each developer, when they need to do a formal build, will walk over to that machine in order to do it.
Second, my thoughts...
This is still one more license than what I thought I would/should need, and it's really unfortunate that we even have to resort to this, but the alternative is worse -- I can't justify virtualizing our build machine if it means purchasing twice as many Powerbuilder licenses (one for each developer that may need to do a build).
The licensing constraints are impacting the way we do our work, which is not a good thing. As a long time Powerbuilder developer and manager (since PB 4.0), I find this trend very discouraging. I understand the concern about unlicensed / pirated products, but I believe there are better ways to handle this (without annoying and driving away existing customers).
Those who know Powerbuilder know of the strengths of the tool/platform. But I agree with other feedback on this thread that if a company makes it increasingly hard for existing customers to get their work done using their tool, the customers will look for alternate tools from other vendors that don't cripple the development infrastructure as much.
Thanks again to everyone for providing very valuable feedback and advice! This was very helpful!

Excel PowerPivot and Slicer with virtual machine?

If you install virtual machine with Windows 7, can you install the full version of Excel and utilize PowerPivot and Slicer tools?

Ok, I've gone back to checking the "user browser default" settings for the proxy address and port, and it now brings up the NTLM authentication windows asking for my credentials. When I put these in, the applets load perfectly in the browser.
At this point I'd have to assume it is an authentication issue with Java VM 1.4.2 not being able to supply ISA's web proxy with the user's credentials?
I am going to try adding basic authentication to the proxy server as a fallback to the integrated authentication and see if this helps, I'll keep you posted....

Read CDs with Virtual Machine with Parallels

I use a programm that runs with Windows and uses CD. Although I could, now -probably since I updated to Montain Lion- I can't open it from Windows, and I've followed every single step in Parallels' Help. The CD is shown in Finder but not in Windows' My PC. It seems as something in Mac (I'm absolutely new with Mac) is avoiding that it can be seen from the Virtual Machine of Parallels. Tks!

Strange problem with virtual machines backup (Hyper-V 2012R2)

Hi
I have a strange problem with backup of virtual machines in one of my Hyper-V environments. Let me describe how does it looks like: There are two physical servers - HP DL360 G8. They are used as hosts for four virtual machines - domain controllers in two domains.
Each of them runs one DC in every domain. I've configured backup "inside" every virtual machine (with Windows Server Backup tool), in its operating system, because domain controllers should have their system state, regularly backuped, etc. Backup
is made on the network share - all machines to the same server as destination. And now the case - two virtual server are backuped as expected - the operation takes 3 - 4 minutes and is always succeded. But in case of two remaining it looks as below:
- Backup operation starts (is scheduled).
- Volume shadow copy is made.
- The first partition of VM starts to be copied. It's Windows 2012 R2 Generation2 VM, so it has EFI, Recovery and C: partition. EFI is as first and at this moment backup stucks for a 2-3 hours! Progress of copying is 0%. After for example 3 hours this partition
is completed and starts the next (disk C:). And again - it freezes for a few hours and suddenly is pushed. As a result the backup is made successfully, but it takes for example 10 hours.
Both "dodgy" VMs are on separated hosts. All four of them were installed in the same time. I tried to change destination to locally connected disk, but no result. It's interesting as well, that after rebooting VM, the first backup is made normally,
but every next has described problem again. In EventLog I can't find any errors, I don't know how to diagnose such case precisely, etc. Have you got idea what can cause such behaviour or where on the server should I look for some hints?
Thanks
Marcin

Hi Marcin,
>>that after rebooting VM, the first backup is made normally, but every next has described problem again.
It shouldn't happen .
To narrow this issue down , Please try to backup an Gen1 VM and check the result .

How does Sharepoint 2013 Server farm using BLOB data, Hyper-V with virtual machines storing the BLOB data?

Hello Community
    A Sharepoint 2013 Server farm created on a physical server
stores it's documents in SQL Server according to how SQL Server is setup.
    If a Sharepoint 2013 Server farm is using Hyper-V and Virtual machines
how is BLOB data stored ?
    Thank you

Are you looking to use Remote Blob Storage? or RBS of SQL with SP?
It is going to be same way as it is configured for physical server.

License management with virtual machines

Folks:
We are using virtual machines. If we have a staff change or a corrupted virtual machine, we create a new virtual machine by duplicating an existing hard drive, creating a new virtual machine, and assigning the duplicate hard drive to the new machine. Works beautifully.
The problem is that Acrobat thinks we have installed it on a new computer and therefore requires relicensing, and it won't re-license automatically because it thinks the license is in use already.
Is there a way around this problem?
Is there a way to convert our retail licenses to some kind of volume license where there is but one license code that can be used X number of times?
Thanks.
Micah

I don't see such an option here: http://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/AdminGuide/licensing.html?highlight=volu me.
I don't think you can do that.

Connect Cloud Service with Virtual Machine

Hi,
Recently migrated my Website to one of Virtual Machine ( Windows 2008 R2 ). Migrated all my MySQl, tomccat, memcache and code.. Now if I hit localhost on Virtual Machine I can see website up and running.
But When tried to connect it from outside failed to do so.
Can someone help me to setup cloud service pointing to this virtual machine. Already setup access points etc pointing to this VM

Have you created an endpoint for HTTP? Sounds like that is what is missing...

How do you get the two step security to work with virtual machines running under parallels?

I use Quickbooks running on a virtual PC under Parallels. I have always have Quickbooks interface with Thunderbird on the PC side to email invoices to customers using my apple email account.
Once I switched to two-step verification security, Apple doesn't recognize the "new" computer trying to access my mail account, but it also doesn't send any kind of code to a second device to authorize the access.
For now, I've had to switch back to the traditional security and the above process immediately works again 9without asking me any security questions).
Is there a way to have Apple recognize the virtual PC (or any other non-Mac computer) with two-step verification security?

You have to go to your Apple ID and generate application specific passwords.

Sharing printer with virtual machine

Host is Arch with KDE 4.4, guest is Windows 7. I can't figure out for the life of me how to set up my printer so that it's shared with with the VM (every "guide" I've found so far hasn't worked). I can directly attach it to the VM, but then the host no longer has access to it.
The printer is an HP Deskjet D2445 (so hplip is involved).
Help is appreciated greatly.

Having trouble with creation of a cloud service with multiple virtual machines using java sdk.

I am creating a cloud service on azure with 2 virtual machines using java sdk API. Service created successfully.
My input endpoint details are as follows.
INPUT ENDPOINTS
Head : 191.238.144.47:2400
Head : 191.238.144.47:22
Node0 : 191.238.144.47:43211
For Head instance port 2400 is for HTTPS and port 22 is for SSH and for Node0 instance port 43211 is for SSH.
But I am having problem with doing a ssh on Head instance. Sometimes it works sometimes doesn't. Same problem with HTTPS also.
I have some application running over there but when i try to access it thru browser sometimes it works but most of the time doesn't. When I restart the instances from azure portal, its works after
that(not always but most of the time).
Now I am confused what is going on there. I am creating cloud service and virtual machines using java sdk and setting input endpoints also. After creation of all instances i restart every instance programmatically .
I am not sure whether restart is required or not. It must be something to do with input endpoints only but not able to get the right thing i guess. When i do the same thing thru azure portal(creation of cloud service with virtual machines and setting up input
end points) everything works fine but not achieving the result when implementing it by java sdk API. Please help me.

HI Nithin,
Thanks for your reply. I am setting the endpoints after creating my instances using update call. Here's the code snippet.

tmpRoleName = roleName + i;
// Creating node instance
aServ.createVM(clusterName, tmpRoleName, imgName, nodeType, userName, pswd);
// Setting end points for node instance
aServ.updateVMInputEndpoint(clusterName, tmpRoleName, name, port);
// Restarting node instance
aServ.restartVM(clusterName, tmpRoleName);
// Method to update the input endpoint details

[SOLVED] virtual machine or dual-boot for development

I'm about to setup a new machine and I am in need of some advice on whether to dual-boot or run a virtual box. Arch Linux is my primary OS, but I need Windows 7 (64-bit) for certain development work. Specifically, the tools I use are Visual Studio Express 10/11 and NI LabVIEW, and I almost always run them both at the same time. Would this type of situation be better suited for a dual-boot setup or could I run it in VirtualBox? I haven't done a lot of work with virtual machines, so I'm not sure of how they typically perform. I mostly care about seamless performance and I honestly don't mind rebooting between the OSes, but if I cat get seamless performance using VirtualBox, then why not go that route. Also, not having to setup up the dual-boot is a plus.
The hardware of this machine includes: 8 gigs of ram, AMD FX 8350, 128 GB SSD, and a 1 GB Radeon 4670 graphics card.
I know this question has been touched on in other posts, but most of the posts I've seen are more than a year or two old. Given advances in hardware, I'm interested in a current advice.

Hi,
I have a similar setup for my work. My hardware is : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3667U CPU @ 2.00GHz, 16GB of ram, 256GB SSD SED. I run a Windows 8 VM inside Virtualbox with the guest addition + extension pack and use VS 2012 Pro on daily basis.
My VM is configured to have only 1 CPU with a 100% execution cap and 4GB of ram. Thing run just perfectly like this, fluent and eye candy. Depending on my need I increase the number of CPU or tweak the execution cap.
Cheers
Edit:
Sadly modifying the VM CPU number must be done offline. However the execution cap can be tweaked online.

URGENT HELP WITH VIRTUAL WLC

We had a problem with Virtual Machine which Cisco Virtual WLC installed. Virtual Machine files were damaged and the system was not start normally. We have had to reinstall the WLC, but after installation impossible to import current license to new one.
how can we install this licence again?

Licenses are tied to the device they're being used on. With a virtual WLC, the license is tied to the unique identifier of the vWLC and when you recreated the vWLC after your VMware problems the new vWLC has a different unique identifier.
It's a similar situation to what happens when a physical controller is faulty and is swapped out by cisco, the replacement will have a different serial number and you'd have to re-host the license to the new serial number.

WIN2008R2: No external network access from Hyper-V guest using Virtual Machine Bus - Legacy ok

Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise x64 Hyper-V host
HP DL370 G6, HP NC375i integrated Quad Port Multifunction Gigabit Server Adapter
Static IP (.11), internet connection via a Cisco switch and PIX firewall
External virtual network connected to port 1, allowing management OS to share the network adapter
Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise x64 guest
Static IP (.21) on the same subnet, same subnet mask and default gateway (.1) as host
* with Virtual Machine Bus network adapter:
- host can ping guest (.21), switch (.5), and has internet access
- guest can ping host (.11), but cannot ping switch (.5) and has no internet access.
- network map shows the guest and host connected via a hub (Microsoft virtual switch), connected to a gateway, then a red X between gateway and internet
* with Legacy network adapter:
- host can ping guest (.21), switch (.5), and has internet access
- guest can ping host (.11), switch (.5) and has internet access.
- network map shows the guest and host connected via a hub (Microsoft virtual switch), connected to a gateway, and no red X between gateway and internet
I installed Hyper-V before adding the HP network drivers (there's a known problem if you install Hyper-V after adding the network drivers), so that's not it.
This happens both with straight network adapters, and also when two are configured as a network team - no difference.
I don't want to use the Legacy network adapter as the performance is terrible, but right now I have no choice as otherwise I can't get network or internet access from the guest.
Any ideas?

Hi,
Please refer to the following post to see whether you can resolve the issue.
Network Adapter (not Legacy) does not work on Virtual Machine after installation through ISO

By the way, did you only encounter this issue with one VM or all VMs? Please do the same test on VMs with other version of Windows such as Windows Server 2008 or Windows Server 2003.
