Problem to connect to VMware virtual machine in VMM

I have a problem to connect to the VMware virtual machine console through the VMM Admin Console. I get the message "For a connection with this virtual VMware machine necessary ActiveX object is not installed. Would like you to install the VMware ActiveX element now?"
If I click "yes", IE opens. To the installation of this ActiveX element I've added the web access side of the VMware-Host to the trustworthy sites in IE. I've also disabled the strengthened security configuration for IE. But it did not help.
What can I still try?
Thx

The most common problem getting the activeX installed is that the VMware infrastructure web portal has not been setup completely. It is from that portal that the activeX is downloaded and installed. Ensure that the VMware infrastructure portal has been setup
and configured for SSL. The Url we attempt to get theactiveX from is https://HostName/ui/plugin/msie/vmware-mks.cab
Uhm, yea, that URL is invalid. Maybe it was for vCenter 3.x? or 4.0 only? Does not resolve on v4.1 :(
If you are having trouble getting the activeX installed there are a couple of workarounds. One workaround is to install the VMWare Infrastructure Client onto your machine where you are running the VMM Admin Console. The Infrastructure Client installation
installs VMWare's activeX along with its own client.
Tried that... it doesn't use ActiveX anymore (still 4.1) so no go :(
Another workaround is to login to the VMware Infrastructure Web Access portal and one time connect to a VM. This will also download and install the activeX and let it work.
Tried that... it doesn't use ActiveX anymore (still 4.1) so no go :(
So basically I need either the SCVMM guys to figure out to do this in the new version from vmware or I need some vmware experts to tell me where I can find this activex component...

Connection to Office Virtual Machine through IE keep dropping

Hello there,
I hope I posting the question to correct topic/group, if not please suggest the correct topic.
I am using windows 8.1 ( Not Pro) to connect to my office Virtual machine. The connection procedure as follows.
Open a browser type an URL, which asks for credentials
Enter your credentials including RSA key
For first time connection, a F5 plugin will be installed for browser [ IE only accepts the plugin if you make the website in compatibility enabled]
successful connection to office Virtual machine
Now the problem begins, the connection to VM keep dropping for every 50 seconds and automatically connects back after 50 seconds. It is bugging me for a while.
I had no problem using this feature from other WINDOWS 7 laptop.
PLEASE HELP and thanks in advance,

Hi,
This should be caused by compatible issue or security settings, since this plugin can only work in compatible mode.
Regarding current situation, please first let me know what program you use to create office VM, VMware or Hyper-v or others?
I suggest we try following steps to check the issue:
Step 1: Put this site in Trusted sites.
Step 2: Uncheck the Protected mode.
Step 3: If there is any third part security applications, please disable it or remove it for testing, since such program has IE protection which sometimes prevent you from connecting RDP console in IE.
Step 4: Please disable other add-ons in Manage add-ons to see what’s going on.
Step 5: Let’s use the lower document mode in F12 developer tool.
Post back the results and event log for further research.

Oracle Linux 6 installation FAILURE on VMWare virtual machine

I just downloaded OEL 6.0 x64, created a new VMWare virtual machine (I have many VMWare VMs running various flavors of OEL 5) and did an installation. It all seemed to work fine. I was just testing, so I didn't do any customization. It finished, and looked good, just like all the other ones I've done. I clicked "reboot", and it did. Or it tried to.
It did boot from the disk, but after about 15 seconds, it said:
No root device found
Boot has failed, sleeping forever.
I retried the installation using a fresh VM, and even let the installer check the whole DVD first. Same result.
Anyone installed OEL 6 to a virtual machine on VMWare ESX?
Any idea what the heck could be wrong?

The problem is:
The Red Hat compatible kernel includes the vmw_pvscsi driver whereas Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel doesn’t. The kernel that the installer boots first does have the drivers, which is why everything is set up fine until UEK tries to find the root volume. It's an issue we plan to address in an updated kernel.
For now the workaround is:
When creating a new VM in VSphere, do not pick Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 x86-64 as the OS type but use Oracle Linux 5 x86-64 (or Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5). ESX will then expose the LSI logic scsi controller to the OS and the 2.6.32-100.28.* kernel will work.

Since upgrading to Lion USB devices no longer connect to my virtual machine in parallels despite my parallels settings.

Since upgrading to Lion USB devices no longer connect to my virtual machine in parallels despite my parallels settings. As a result all usb devices show as networked drives from the mac. Therefore cannor access encrypted part of drive. Any ideas???

I actually have the same problem, since I upgraded to Mavericks my MacBook Pro can't seem to find the Bose sounddock 10. Has anyone found a solution to this.
It still works with the iPhone 5
Thank you

HT3231 Migration Assistant and vmware virtual machine

I would like to use Migration Assistant to move my information from a MacBook Pro to a new MacBook Air. Before I perform that, I would like to make sure I don't migrate any problems in the new machine.
How do I choose for example NOT to migrate the VMWARE virtual machine in my older MacBook Pro so that the new MacBook Air becomes lighter?
Thanks

During the setup of your MacBook, it will ask you to restore a backup, so choose the option to restore data from another Mac and follow its steps. You will be able to choose what you want to restore.
If you haven't modified anything, VMware stores virtual machines in Documents folder, so the only thing you have to do is to untick the Downloads folder and the virtual machine won't be migrated to the MacBook Air. See > http://pondini.org/OSX/SetupLion.html
If you are going to migrate applications, it's important to check that they are compatible with Mountain Lion. PowerPC applications aren't compatible and you will be wasting space if you transfer these apps

Not able to connect Azure Linux Virtual Machine with Putty

Hi,
I am not bale to connect Azure Linux Virtual Machine with Putty... Error shows "Network error: connection timed out".
Please help.
Thanks,
Techsol
Thanks, Kk

Hi TechSol01,
Thanks for posting here.
I suggest you to try the below steps
On a computer running a Windows operating system, you might want to use an SSH client such as PuTTY. For more information, see the
PuTTY Download Page.
On a computer running a Linux operating system, you might want to use an SSH client such as OpenSSH. For more information, see
OpenSSH.
If it is the endpoint configuration, you can go to the portal and add port 22, (it should already be there by default).
Now if it is locked out of the VM because of the firewall on the VM, which is called iptables , You won't be able to connect to the VM,
If you haven’t configured the port 22. You may have to follow the below steps :
A = Original VM (Inaccessible VM)
B = New VM (New Temp VM)
1) Stop VM A via the Azure management portal
2) Delete VM A BUT select “keep the attached disks”
3) Once the lease is cleared, attach the Data Disk from A to VM B via the Azure Portal, Virtual Machines, Select “B”, Attach Disk
4) On VM “B” eventually the disk will attach and you can then mount it.
5) Locate the drive name to mount, on VM “B” look in relevant log file note each linux is slightly different.
grep SCSI /var/log/kern.log (ubuntu)
grep SCSI /var/log/messages (centos, suse, oracle)
6) Mount the attached disk onto mountpoint /tempmount
df -h
mkdir /tempmount
mount /dev/sdc1 /tempmount
df –h
7) Now you should be able to clear the rules set from the configuration file of the firewall, by accessing it
through /tempmount
Let me know if this works

Can you connect from powershell? get-vmmserver <VMMServerComputerName>
If this doesn't work it's likely that your VMM server doesn't work. Check Application log to see if there are errors related to VMM service.
You can also collect traces as described
here and attach them to this thread.
Are you using a domain administrator account? (this is the default allowed after SCVMM is installed - until other users are added).
also try restarting VMM server or VMM services once.
this occur if the SQL database owner is indicated as NULL. Try adding the SQL SA account as db owner.

Oracle 10g IO perfomance on vmware virtual machine

Hi Friends,
I am facing perfomance issue on oracle10g 64bit, installed on rhel5.3 64bit on a vmware virtual machine because of disk IO.
While taking DB backup using netbackup I can see the datatransfer speed comes up to 100 Mbps.
But when oracle IO requests comes it is not going more than 30 Mbps.
And the CPU IO wait remains same as on both of the time. (20% to 40%)
Please help.

Could you verify this behaviour outside a VMware virtual machine?
If yes, then please open an SR on Metalink to let support diagnose.
Provide an RDA, AWR snapshot if you have licensed the Diagnistic Pack - if not than provide STATSPACK snapshots.
Sorry - but this is a database upgrade forum :-)

Flash media server 3 on VMWare virtual machine

Do any one know can a FMS 3 run smoothly on a vmware virtual
machine? if yes, is there any requirement need to be aware? thanks
for any adivse.

Rather than VMWare you may want to consider a operating
system-level virtualization. I recommend OpenVZ. This has excellent
native speed performance for the guest OS. I have This system with
the host and guests all CentOS4.5, running variously FMS2, FMS3,
Red5 etc in the guests. Its super easy to start, stop, clone,
distroy the guests. the guests can be firewalled from the host. You
can set guaranteed min and max memory allocations for the guests.
You can run Linux distros as guests that differ from the
host, but you can't run non-linux guests, unlike in VMWare.
Also, the default resource allocations for the newly created
OpenVZ guests are insufficient to run FMS in, so the config file
for the guest needs to be changed.

Problems PXE booting Gen 2 Virtual Machines after Upgrading to Windows Server 2012 R2

My Current Setup:
I have two virtual machines set up with Hyper V on my Windows Server 2012 Server.
VM1: Configured to boot from an ISO file and runs Clonezilla server.
VM2: Configured to PXE boot using a legacy network adapter, and with a passthrough 250Gb hard disk.
These two VMs are connected to an external Virtual Switch, which allows physical machines to PXE boot to the Clonezilla server.
For the past few months I have been using this setup for two purposes:
1. To clone physical machines to the Clonezilla virtual server (as a backup).
2. To restore those image to the second VM if I find that need to get access to the files on the original image..
This has worked perfectly, except for the fact that the speed of the legacy network adapter on the second VM (which is required to PXE boot) is very slow. But I know this is because of the limitations in how the legacy adapter works...
Now my problem:
I found out that Gen 2 VMs allow you to PXE boot without having use a legacy network adapter, allowing me to image back to the VM faster. So I upgraded the Server to Server 2012 R2 . I then created the same two virtual machines on the R2 server. I can still
PXE boot the Gen 1 VM to the Clonezilla Server but I cannot get the Gen 2 VMs to PXE boot properly. They get an IP address from the Clonezilla Server but then just stop with the following screen. (note: I have disabled the Secure Boot).
Are Gen 2 VMs unable to pull down images from anything other than a WDS Server?

Hi J,
>>Unfortunately WDS is not a solution for us as it is dependent on the PC being part of a domain
If you would like to make the client not join to the domain, please check the box before “Do not join the client to a domain after an installation.” In addition, make sure not to set the client to the domain in the unattend file and do not prestage
the computer in AD. "

How to connect the two virtual machine .

I installed VM workstation and created two virtual machine .Please suggest me how to connect them internally each other though vm network editor.I want create RAC Setup for practice.

NAT is the default adapter type in VirtualBox, which will work in almost any configuration and networking environment. Using the NAT adapter, the host system will establish connections on behalf of the guest OS. NAT requires that the corresponding VM guest adapter uses DHCP and cannot be used to provide any services unless you configure port forwarding (>1024) at the VirtualBox VM NAT adapter.
Bridged networking is the most transparent adapter type, but requires a physical network adapter on the host OS, which is limited depending on the host system and hardware, e.g. wireless. It also requires that the user understands network and routing restrictions of the host system in case of using the interface to communicate between the host and VM. A combination of host-only and NAT may sometimes be necessary to allow the VM to connect to the internet and allow the host to communicate with the VM guest OS.
Btw, the host-only adapter IP actually works on behalf of the host OS and can be used to allow the VM to access the host system. So if Internet is not required, the NAT or bridged adapter are not required. I'm not sure if many people realize that, since it's not really mentioned in the documentation. So if you use the host-only adapter, simply use the host-only IP instead of the host system real IP to connect the VM to the host OS.
I also switched to VirtualBox a couple of years ago, mainly because it provides more VM hardware options, is free and because of the ability to manage multiple virtual machines and group them together. I have about 70 virtual machines for testing and evaluating configured on my home computer. I also like the option in VirtualBox to clone a VM based on a Snapshot.
VMware provides a Virtual Network Editor in VMware Workstation (KB 1018697), which allows to customize any of the existing virtual network adapter or add new ones. The available technologies under any Type 2 hypervisor are very similar between different products:

Adobe X cannot print from Win 7 VMWare virtual machine

I've created several virtual machines using VMWare Workstation and VMWare fusion.
I've installed Win 7 Pro 64bit. I've installed either Office 2010 32 bit or 64 bit.
When I open any PDF file and click File Print. Adobe crashes. I get an OS error message the program has encountered an error and I can search online for a solution or close the program.
Either option results in the application closing.
Is this common? Can anyone else verify the same results?
Will this be patched or is it by design?

Dear user,
Kindly refer to the discussion http://forums.adobe.com/thread/949886?tstart=0 and try out the workarounds provided there.
