Hyper V: No Option to Create New Virtual Machine

After selecting my local computer as the virtualization server, there is no option to create a new virtual machine. When I right-click on my server, I only get "Remove Server", "View>", and "Help"
in the drop-down menu. According to the tutorials that I've watched, this is where "New>Virtual Machine..." should appear. What am I doing wrong?
My machine:
Win 8.1 Pro, 64-bit
Intel Core i5-3470
RAM 8192
Graphics: GTX 660

You need to enable Virtualization under CPU / Advance settings in your BIOS. Your motherboard must support hardware virtualization in order for this feature to be available in the BIOS. If you don't see this option then, your hardware (motherboard)
is not compatible nor support.

Virtual PC - Create new virtual machine snap in button not appearing

I was asked to move this question here so here it goes...
I have installed virtual PC and have the XP mode image working on Win 7 64 bit on a Dell Optiplex 990 i5. However when I choose the Windows Virtual PC manager and the Windows explorer window opens, I don't see the create virtual machine option, just
'burn' where it should be. How do I get the snap in option to appear to create a virtual drive? The window appears with the title Virtual Machines.
I have tried enabling the windows 7 aero UI thinking the classic windows appearance was somehow blocking this but that had no effect.
I tried re-installing the virtual pc setup directly from the website but it give me the message that it's isn't suitable for use. I tried un-installed and re-installing but get the same where the explorer window is missing the snap in.
Again, the XP mode image works properly and starts and shuts down without any issues.

Below is the fix for the virtual machines folder for WinVPC when the folder
here “%username%virtual machines” is missing the
“Create Virtual Machine” option.
Making changes to the Registry is potentially dangerous, always have a backup before proceeding.
The fix is pretty simple, copy and paste the following lines into notepad and save
to a *.reg file, then double-click to run it (you shouldn’t need to reboot for
the fix to take effect, close and re-open the window:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\BagMRU]
[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Bags]

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.

Create new virtual machine in Oracle VM 3.1.1

Hello,
after upgrade to 3.1.1 there is no possibility of create a new server and clone machines because of this error:

What could be cause of this behavior Oracle VM?

Option to Create new Security Policy in UME is not available

Hello,
We are on NW CE 7.1 EHP1 and MII 12.1.7 build 47.
I have "Administrator" role, "MII Super Administrator" role, few custom roles and I also ensured that "Administrator" role has Action "Manage_All" and I am able to perform all of the activities on UME except that I don't see any option to create new security policies, all I can do is modify the Default Security Policy and save it.
It never shows me an option to create new security policy and I am not sure what roles or actions I am missing.
I need have different security polices for different users based on their roles.
1) Are there any roles or actions that my profile needs to have?
2) Is it something to do with NW CE version?
3) Has something gone wrong or have we missed some configuration while installing NW CE?
I had posted similar question in MII forum but was recommended to post in NW forums.
So any suggestions will be of great help
Thanks,
Adarsh

what is Security Policy ?

IPhoto- no option to "create new library"

Hi all
When I try to import new photos into iPhoto I get the message that there is not enough space in my library to allow it. I have searched for this issue alone on these message boards and have seen I need to check my memory (I have over 90gb free) and then to try "create new library" when opening with command and alt button, to see if there's any concerns in doing that.
My issue is that I don't have the option to "create new library." it is not there at all. I have already tried rebuilding it from this option but I still get the not enough memory warning.
Can anyone advise?
Thanks

To create a new Library you hold the option (or alt) key when launching, not the command and alt keys
However, ths message is bogus - after all you have 90 gigs free - and usually implies a damaged database.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

Hyper-V encountered an error trying to access an object on computer 'localhost' .....- When try to install new Virtual machin in win8, 64 bit

my understand is: "we can use Hyper v, instead of Virtual box or as VMware player". I think in windows 8, hyper v server is not installed. does that is the problem? Why do we use it ?
Actually I wanna configure Kernel Debugging over Virtualized COM port. So what can I do next ? please help me...
Note: Virtual Machine Management service is running.

Hi mrCracker,
>>am using windows 8, 64 bit system inside VMWARE in Ubuntu 14.04 .
If I understand correctly , it is nested installation .
Windows Hyper-v is bare-metal hypervisor .
Please try to install win8 on real hardware then enable hyper-v to install VM .

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"

HT2476 Why when clicking the right mouse button for my external hard drive there is no option for "create new folder"?

Hi there. I'm having a problem with my external hard drive. Actually with only one of them (others seem to be ok...). The problem is that when clicking the right mouse button (or using other ways to do the same), in the drop-down list there isn't an option for "create new folder". Please, can anyone help with this issue?

The drive is NTFS formated. Most probably that's the reason, but there is some info on the drive which I wouldn't like to loose. If there is a way to re-format the drive and save the files, that would be great. If there isn't such a way, then please, tell me how to re-format it. But bear in mind as well that I'm using Parellels and the drive is to be used in Mac and Win modes, both. Just to add some more info: my other drive is FAT32 formated and all seems to go well with it.

Since Ubuntu is not officially supported for /on Oracle VM, I'm afraid you're kinda stuck on your own...
But why not use one of the freely available Oracle Enterprise Linux-distro's or even one of the host-templates made by Oracle? These work for me, incl. the Oracle 11g-database.

But I verified the admin ID does have full access to the folders. furthermore it belongs administrators, domain Admins, enterprise admins,
What gives? what additional privilege I need to give to the login ID, I tried in vain adding to Virtual machines but got rejected. I also could not locate anything like virtual machines in the active directory,
Btw I finally managed to create a new VM wi/ VHD but still can't create new vhd
------------Platform info ---
the physical quad core Xenon server for backup dns also works as exchange server
has 12 GB RAM, 931 GB Raid 5 storage with 325 GB free.

These actions are not performed in the security context of the user. The Local System / computer account of the Hyper-V Server is what needs the access, not the user.
Also, many AV products will cause these problems if the exclusions are not set properly, as they block the hypervisor from doing its job.

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

Move Exchange 2013 installation to new virtual machine

Currently have: 1 virtual server - Server 2012 (DC, Global Catalog), Exchange 2013 CU1 installation (yes I know- dont install Exchange on DC etc etc ... ). Server2012/Exchange2013 is installed on one VMDK, EDB and logs are saved on another VMDK.
Want to do: Create second virtual machine and install Server 2012 (different name), add it as a member to the same domain (also in the same network), install Exchange 2013, move all mailboxes to the new server, uninstall the old Exchange 2013.
Question is- is it possible to somehow unmount the existing database (I am only using one database for mailboxes and public folders) and mount it to the new server or do I have to create a new database on the new server and move the mailboxes there? I've
heard that the Exchange EDB databases were supposed to be portable between same versions of Exchange.
Any advice is appreciated.

Hi,
Agree with Andy, to avoid down time, we can depend on database portability.
And here are the steps you can refer to:
1. Install new Exchange server on the member server.
2. Move Mailbox Database using Database Portability:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd876926(v=exchg.150).aspx
3. Move the public folders (if any), re-home the offline address book, and move your SMTP connectors
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/822931
4. Remove the old Exchange server.
Thanks,

Thanks for the reply.
I'm a bit confused on the instructions from
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd876926(v=exchg.150).aspx- does step 4 instruct me to overwrite the newly created database (on the new server) with the old database and then mount it on the new server? Also, as the public folders are now in
a mailbox on the same database- aren't they moved with the database without extra hassle?
Also the link you gave me in Step 3 in your post refers to Exchange 2003.
Thanks in advance.

Hyper-V could not replicate changes for virtual machine 'machinename': The connection with the server was terminated abnormally (0x00002EFE).

I have a 3 node cluster that has replica setup to replicate to another cluster off-site.
Suddenly one of the servers is not replicating with the error:
Hyper-V could not replicate changes for virtual machine 'machinename': The connection with the server was terminated abnormally (0x00002EFE). (Virtual Machine ID CC0FD4CC-F9B7-4C68-ABE8-B7D52A87899F)
All other servers are replicating fine so there cannot be a permissions or connectivity issue between the 2 clusters.
This server has 2TB of data so I'd rather not have to start the replication again.
Does anyone have any pointers?
Thanks.

Hi drensta,
Based on my knowledge , "hyper-v replica broker " is needed for failover cluster replica .
Here is a link for "Why is the "Hyper-V Replica Broker" required?"
http://blogs.technet.com/b/virtualization/archive/2012/03/27/why-is-the-quot-hyper-v-replica-broker-quot-required.aspx
