Mac Pro, Windows 7 Virtual PC-XP Mode Problem w/ Hardware Virtualization

I have installed windows 7 (64 bit) on an 8 month old intel mac pro with latest bootcamp. runs great. cannot get virtual pc / xp mode to work.
confirmed latest firmware, confirmed processor has virtualization (vmx listed in processor details when boot to snow leopard).
when i run ms hardware-assisted virtualization detection tool it confirms hardware virtualization. after i install xp mode and virtual pc update i get an error message that there is no virtualization. ms hardware-assisted virtualization detection tool will now also report no virtualization. if i uninstall xp mode and virtual pc update, ms hardware-assisted virtualization detection tool will again confirm virtualization.
any thoughts? i searched forum but did not see anything - sorry if i missed it.
thanks in advance for input...

Because the hardware of Mac Pro does have Intel-VT capability, it's just disabled.
One solution (though a very lame one) is boot into OS X first, run VMware Fusion or Parallel (which enables Intel-VT), then restart into Windows.
Just hope there would be some way to enable Intel-VT on Windows...

K9N Platinum Hardware Virtualization?

Hi all!
I have an MSI K9N Platinum 7250 and an AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ Windsor AM2 F2 processor. The 3800+ supports hardware virtualization, but I cannot find a way to enable it in the Bios.
I ran the Live Update 5 utility, and it shows the current BIOS version as being 1.K0 (I think its an error and should be 1.0). Either way, the Live Update utility does not show any new updates to the Bios.
Does this mean that even though my CPU supports Hardware Virtualization, there is no way for me to use it as my Motherboard cannot?
This is quite deceiving as when I bought the motherboard a few years ago, in the description it said that it supports the new AMD X2 range which has features such as hardware virtualization.
Any help would me much appreciated.
Thank you!

I just did, and I got the following message:
"This System is not compatible with Hyper-V
This utility detected that a necessary BIOS patch is not installed."
I dont get it though as everywhere I've read, it says the Windsor chips were the first to support Hardware Virtualization, and the 3800+ is a Windsor one. My CPU box has this on it: "AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ Dual Core Processor Socket AM2 Windsor 2.0GHZ 2x512KB 89W 90NM Retail"
Is the Live Update 5 tool not detecting that a newer Bios version is out? I see there is a 7250v1B one can download from the 7250 support page, but I thought the Live Update 5 tool is the best thing to use for updating Bios?

Hi,
I have a question...
I going to install two Nexus 7009 with three N7K-F248XP-25 modules on each one, I am planning to create 3 VDC, but at the initial configuration the system does not show the ethernets ports of these modules, even with the show inventory and show module I can see tah the modules are recognized and its status is OK. There is something that I have to do before start to configure these modules...? enable some feature or license in order to see the ports with show running CLI...?

Macbook pro retina 15 Mid 2014 - Virtualization bug

For some reason Virtualization is disabled when i boot directly up in Windows 8.1, however if i first start up OSX to the login screen and then select restart and boot into Windows i have Virtualization enabled as expected.
My temporary work-a-round which is terrible annoying:
bootup via ALT and select Ios
at login screen press restart
hold down ALT and select Windows
This enables virtualization, however it would be "nice" to be able to just boot directly into windows.

How to: IT Virtualization career with VMware as rock-solid foundation

Hello all,
I'm considering exactly what the title says. I've spent the better part of the past month reading/watching about the topic. I mainly researched the VMware product line (really, an ecosystem), along with Certification paths. I'm leaning towards the main DCV dish, with a side of CMA as needs come by. I am now building some sort of 'plan' for myself, contemplating the next 2-5 years or so with a VCP6-DCV goal in mind. There are a number of questions I need to ask to the actual pros, though. (highlighted in bold for anyone wishing to skip the following wall of text)
First of all, I'm heavily questionning my background. I wish it were enough to dive deep into vSphere right now, but is it? I mean, beyond VCA... I like to think "I can do this, I'm good admin material, I know it", but would an employer see it through the same lens? Probably not. My question is, would you hire ─ at the bottom of the IT/VMware ladder of course ─ this individual? Here's a quick, honest-to-god profile (please skip if you wish as none of this italic part speaks of VMware).
I'm 32, male, I live in France (but plan to move abroad to a more dynamic region, in terms of technology and the economy in general).
My 'official' pro background in IT is fairly limited ─ back in 2005 I trained & worked (at the same time) for about a year and a half on general admin/network. So, mostly windows 2000-2003-XP, general IT concepts; we had an HQ with about 30 users and 30 distant sites (car rental company present all over Paris), everything VNC'ed to the server room which hosted a dozen Dell Edge something (distant profiles etc.). Applications such as MS Office or credit card payments (Wynid) were served virtually through Citrix, and I had the opportunity to even run it at home in my lab to learn. It was back in 2005, but the basic concepts of networking, directory management or virtualization seem pretty clear to me, even as of 2015.
At that time I was young. Well, younger, at least. When I realized that what needed fixing weren't really the computers but the users (j/k... or am I?), I cut short my IT experience and did other, unrelated jobs, even spending some time back at the university to learn law and a bit of sociology (political theory, social interactions, things like that). Enriching, and I can use all of this to fuel my vision of technology, but now I want back in IT as a professional. It's an obvious vocation I've been ignoring for too long.
Ever since my teens, I've been dabbling in computers.
Learned Dreaweaver 3 with a bible in just over 3 months and made my first website back in 2000.
Since 2005 I've always had a windows server at home ─ it seems like it's not really my home unless it's a domain. I've been sharing coffee daily with ADDS ever since.
I like starting from scratch, designing and building entirely new IT systems (my home is my lab) every other year.
All my hobbies, at some point, got "computerized". For instance I learned everything I could about metadata for media/content files, from the Dublin Core principles to real-world popular DBs schemas (MusicBrainz notably) passing by actual implementations on my system, just because I need my music and video files to be properly sorted and browsed "smartly", you know... Also built a few home audio/video studios setups for friends...
Many people around me come to me for advice on technology, of any kind ─ I like science and tech, always reading up the latest and greatest, and apparently able to research what I have yet to know. I get good feedback on my advice, more often than not.
These are just a few examples of a trend in my life that says "I don't work in IT, but on a daily basis I spend a few hours, often having actual fun, with geeky-IT tasks, even just reading".
I'm extremely thorough by nature. Reading and carefully understanding, checking and applying a Best Practices whitepaper is often a paradoxical treat to me ─ it may be somewhat boring come page 14, but it's just beautiful when a system runs close to perfection, I often find a deep motivation for these ironing-out/optimization tasks. I'm also very practical, down to earth. I love ideas, I get my good share of it, but ultimately what matters to me are actual results ─ though I never rush things unless I have to, I'm infinitely patient with a project. I spend hours designing, testing (seeking real-world proofs-of-concept) so I don't mess up in actual production. I like things neat, sober and efficient, from variables to comments and names passing by external documentation ─ which I highly value, probably stems from my research-oriented mind. I do document my home setups to some degree!
Do these things matter? Do they help me, along with these certifications, or is my professional IT inexperience, at 32, the end of that road?
From what I've read, I'm fairly confident that with the right self-traning, hands on, I have a shot at VCA6-DCV. Practical questions:
I can get a good book, I can get online training, I probably can build a decent lab for virtualization at home. But how can I get hands-on with the software?
Evaluation doesn't seem like an option since it's limited in time.
Unless, maybe, one can get several trials as long as everything is freshly reinstalled. Being a lab we obviously don't care to break everything every 60 days or so, but does it work like this with VMware trials?
Is there any way I can run a non-productive fully-featured VMware ecosystem at home, just for the sake of training? (note: I'm willing to pay for that right, just can't or rather won't afford $2000 licences of course, I'd rather spend that on training classes)
I've discovered the fabulous VMware Hands-on Lab.
Is it really free, unlimited?
If yes, I suppose that's the recommended way to get hands-on VMware products?
Should it be the only way, how can I verify that my practices are good in the long run (days, months, years...) if I can't run the systems for more than a few hours? My understanding of IT is that making things work at first is only the prologue to a long day-to-day care and management of systems and apps, and I wouldn't want to miss that kind of understanding with mission-critical infrastructure such as virtualization. Seems like the mother of all critical-to-monitor and analyze/report/optimize etc. That doesn't happen in a few hours. I find myself puzzled by that apparent contradiction between training and real work.
Now, let's assume I pass my VCA6. Then what? How do I go from there to VCPx?
With my rather unconventional background, as seen from IT, can I land a level 1 vmware admin job if I get a VCA6-DCV? (I'm doubting, thus also considering maybe VCA6-CMA as well, to demonstrate *more* motivation and skills). I mean, are these VCA's even remotely enough, or should I brush up, say, on my Windows server/system admin and get a basic certification there before I aim at VCPx VMware certifs?
Assuming I manage, eventually, to have a job involving VMware datacenter products (ESXi cluster, vSphere, vCenter etc.), I understand that 2-5 years worth of pro experience are recommended to consider VCP-DCV. I assume a motivated individual, training at home on top of work, getting involved socially with the community and so on, would probably fall in the lower end of that range. From your experience, is being hands-on at work 'enough' to truly understand and master (read: work skillfully with) VMware products? (again, with VCP in sight) I'm asking since, more often that not, you don't touch critical settings, unless you absolutely have to, in a prod environment (for instance, if my company, back in 2005, hadn't allowed me to run citrix at home for a few months for training's sake, I just wouldn't have gotten my hands dirty enough with it to be able to administer it, later on this job). Which leads us back to my previous questions about hands-on in a lab environment. Which lab, where, and how?
And importanly enough, about how much would it cost me, overall, from VCA to VCP, including one mandatory class, and the necessary long-term hands-on training?
Sorry for such a long post but I wanted to hear back from the community with enough understanding of my situation. Please be frank and don't hold back, I need to hear the truth about my chances at this, and the sooner I realize how to proceed, the better. Currently, I'm beginning to train on ESXi and vCenter Server (awesome products, btw!) Any help in reaching my VCP endgame will be greatly appreciated, so thank you in advance for any light you might shed on my path.
PS: I apologize for any english mistake, it's not my mother tongue.

Thank you very much for your answer.
I think I do hear you. Assuming I can clear that first step you suggest (get a job supporting a company IT infrastructure, probably at the desktop), then I need to ramp up towards servers and eventually, it's somehow up to me to either help bring VMware to that company, or join another one where VMware is already present. And, as usual in business, ROI/TOC is the sinews of war. I suppose VMware, as a global IT leader, is somehow built on that premise. All of this makes a lot of sense to me. I think it will help me when making future choices. Very practical ideas are already popping up in my head.
I think, for now, I'll focus on
getting that first job in IT infrastructure,
while training for my VCA at home.
Then see from there. Regardless of my job, I can probably keep on self-training towards VCP ─ it never hurts to learn, and ultimately it may help me make the best out of a required class training.
Just a follow-up question, specifically about VMware and security. I'm digging this way because, thinking of your suggestions, here's one aspect of IT in particular that seems a very good bet to me. Here's the context in France (and several european countries):
Studies show that small and medium-sized french businesses (SMBs, up to 250 employees) have mostly missed the digital revolution of the last decade or so. The root causes go deep, as there are about 100,000 IT jobs available in France because of a lack of skilled workers, and the general population shows very poor technological culture overall. Thus, there's a lot to do in the backend to ease that necessary transition (cue for newcomers like me, willing to enter this market, I suppose).
More specifically, there is a huge need for security, which is, too often here, nowhere near acceptable standards. It would be easy to blame IT departments, but they in turn blame their CEOs for not understanding the issue ─ whose main reasons for negliging security are often misconstrued or outdated perceptions: increased cost, tediousness of the end-user experience; but more often than not, it's just blatant unawareness of the risks.
I think VMware delivers very good solutions to this issue.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I understand that virtualization brings a layer of abstraction that makes it inherently superior, from a security perspective, to physical equivalents. And I think it's obvious the end-user experience, should it be different, is better virtualized than not. Therefore ─ you see where I'm going with this: if I had to show a company how VMware is interesting, not only for saving costs or ease of management/deployment, but above all in terms of security, what would be the main selling points, specifically? Also when training myself, which products, which specific designs or implementations or features, in the vast VMware ecosystem, are key to security if I want to bring that to my company? I'd like to have my eyes on that from the beginning. Basically knowing what to say when, one fine day, a manager/recruiter asks me: "how would using VMware be better for our security?" or "how will sponsoring you for VCP-DCV help us in this regard"? (again, rather from a small or medium-sized business perspective)
I'm thinking SSO, vShield and vSECR from the top of my head, but I confess the whole set of VMware server products and features is still a bit overwhelming to me. Obviously I'll do the bulk of research myself, I just need a few pointers.
Thanks again for the inspiration and support!

How to configure network virtualization in SCVMM 2012 R2 with two host

hi everyone... can you teach me how i configure networking in my infrastructure..
i am getting confuse that i have 2 phisical server, i don't know to set the netwokring in scvmm. Every best practice, i found in internet is using more than 2 physical server.
i have been tried before with the networking which i want..but it failed...
any one help me please...

This whitepaper should explain the required steps to get this working.
http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/Hybrid-Cloud-with-NVGRE-aa6e1e9a
The whitepaper will use more than two hyper-v hosts, but you'll get the picture.
You can have 1 host to run your NVGRE VMs, while the other host should be dedicated to run the virtualization gateway VMs.

Hi Dennis,
    All those Layer 2 extension technologies require STP to be extended between Data Centers if you need to have multiple paths between Data Centers. OTV does not extend STP rather it has its own mechanism (AED election) to avoid loop when multiple paths are enabled. It means any STP control plane issue, we don't carry to the other Data Center.
    OTV natively suppresses Unknown Unicast Flooding across the OTV overlay. Unknown unicast flooding is a painful problem in layer 2 network and difficult to troubleshoot to identify the root cause if you don't have proper network monitoring tool.
   It has ARP optimization which eliminates flooding ARP packets across Data Center by responding locally with cached ARP messages. One of the common issues I have seen in Data Center is some server or device in the network sends continuous ARP packets which hits Control plane in the Aggregation layer which in turn causes network connectivity issue.
The above three points proves the Layer 2 domain isolation between data centers. If you have redundant Data Centers with Layer 2 extended without OTV, the above explained layer 2 issue which happens in one Data Center carries the same failure to the second data center which creates the question of what is the point of having two different Data Centers if we can not isolate the failure domain.
OTV natively supports HSRP localization with few command lines. This is a very important requirement in building Active/Active Data Center.
Even though your question is related to L2TP, OTV deserves the comparison with VPLS and those comparison will also be applicable for L2TP. The below link explains in detail...

How can I virtualize Lion if I bought a new Mac with Lion preinstalled?

Hi folks. I read that you were allowed to virtualize 1 instance of Lion after purchasing Lion. How can I virtualize Lion if I don't have any install media with one of the new macs?

If you bought on of the new MacBook Airs or Mac Minis, you will have a short term problem as the you will not be able to download a fresh copy of the Installer. See my post here.
This problem should go away soon probably with 10.7.1
If onthe other hand you bought one of the oleder models and it came with Lion, then you can download another copy of the installer by:
Open the App store.
Hold down the option key while selecting "purchased"
Lion should now say "Install" rather than "Installed".
Click install to download a new copy of the Installer.
As soona s th installer automoatically opens after doqnloading, quit it
Save a copy of the installer from Applications.

Remote desktop virtualization setup - can't identify virtual desktop state

I'm experimenting with MS's vdi offering and have hit a problem when selecting the Remote Desktop template virtual machine.
The Error (translated from spanish)
'Cannot identify the virtual desktop state. Verify that the remote desktop virtualization host server hypervsrv is available on the network and that the virtual desktop VDIBaseWin7 is closed'
What I've got:
A Windows 2012 R2 with hyper-v
A Windows 2012 Std on which I am trying to configure Remote desktop virtualization
A virtual machine with Windows 7 pro. The machine is basic win 7, patched and has been sysprepped.
How I get there:
From server manager I open Remote Desktop Services > from the wizard área above I click on (3) Create remote desktop collection
This opens the wizard where I choose a name for the collection
I then select 'personal virtual desktop collection' and 'créate and adminístrate virtual desktops automatically'
The wizard then presents me with a list of virtual machines. I then select the sysprepped wind 7 pro machine (which is shut down naturally). I've tried generating the win7 machine as a generation 1 and generation 2 - the result is the same.
The wizard pauses for a few moments and then displays:
'Cannot identify the virtual desktop state. Verify that the remote desktop virtualization host server hypervsrv is available on the network and that the virtual desktop VDIBaseWin7 is closed'
Neither the event log of the hyper-v server, nor the rds server, report anything.
So, my question is, whats failing? Its obvious that its trying to perform some action and is failing. The question is, whats it trying to do. If I knew what it was doing then I could investigate the cause, but the error doesn't say much.
Anyone have any ideas?

strange, This question has been moved to the remote desktop forum. I would have thought this forum was more for the traditional terminal server type questions.
Anyway, I found a solution to my own problem. It turns out to be the mix of 2012R2 for hyperv and 2012 std for the broker, etc.
I set up another server with 2012r2 and followed the same sequence to configure it with the rds roles and it worked perfectly.

Error when uninstalling App-V RDS client: Product: Microsoft Application Virtualization (App-V) Client for Remote Desktop Services 5.0 Service Pack 2 x64 -- Error 1324. The folder path 'C:' contains an invalid character

Issue: experienced when attempting to uninstall the App-V 5.0 SP2 RDS client.
Event Log: Product: Microsoft Application Virtualization (App-V) Client for Remote Desktop Services 5.0 Service Pack 2 x64 -- Error 1324. The folder
path 'C:' contains an invalid character
Symptoms (when in this current state):
Unable to uninstall the SP2 client
You can upgrade the client (via hotfix) and uninstall the hotfix, but you will not be able to remove the SP2 client
AppvVfs filter driver will not create an instance, therefore applications will not be able to read into existing streamed VFS content, or trigger sparse files to stream content. (you can still stream the content via other means, like the UI or powershell)
Because of the AppvVfs filter driver not instantiating, applications that depend on licences that exist in VFS will not be able to be read causing certain applications to react as if the license does not exist or is an incorrect format

Resolution:
Check for the existence of a hidden folder named %appdata% in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft Application Virtualization\Client folder. (You will need to un-check the folder options box in windows explorer for "Hide
protected operating system files" to see it)
If the hidden %appdata% folder exists, delete it.
Proceed to uninstall the App-V client
After a clean uninstall and removal of remnants of the client, reinstall the client again and apply the latest hotfix available (Hotfix 2 for SP2 at a minimum).

No option for hardware virtualization option in bios of DV6 1355dx / Windows 7

No option for hardware virtualization option in bios of DV6 1355dx / Windows 7. Tried installing some SPs such as sp53216 , sp55068, etc but the extration will warn Cann't check platform ID & had to close the window. Is there a sure shot patch to this issue?

Hi,
Specs: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01893242&tmp_task=prodinfoCategory&cc=us&dlc=en...

It says that the CPU doesn't support virtualization, means the option can't be in the BIOS.

Virtualization problem with Win 8.1 pro

System:
Packard bell
Windows 8.1 Pro (x64)
Intel Core i5-2320 CPU
I am having problems installing Intel HAXM (for Android emulation). I get this error immediately:
"This computer does not support Intel Virtualization Technology (VT-x) ..."
Running the processor identification utility, I get:
Intel Virtualization Technology: No
Intel VT-x with Extended Page Tables: No
Both of these should be supported on my system as shown on Intel web page.
I've enabled virtualization in the BIOS, installed/reinstalled new drivers, but nothing seems to work. Anyone know if this is just a "Windows 8 not supported" issue or if there's something I can do?
Thanks,
AL-Waseem

This should be perfectly supported on this cpu and on Windows 8(.1), but maybe not by your system (motherboard). (check the notes in
http://ark.intel.com/products/53446/Intel-Core-i5-2320-Processor-6M-Cache-up-to-3_30-GHz)
https://software.intel.com/en-us/android/articles/installation-instructions-for-intel-hardware-accelerated-execution-manager-windows
contains information on how to check compatibility and some instructions on how to install the software and/or configure the system (bios, drivers,..., turning of Hyper-V,...)
if this is a 'not supported' issue, it will be motherboard/bios; check with Packard Bell for information on support of virtualization on that machine. There might also be firmware/bios updates available that address your issue.

Virtualize an existing windows 8.1 installation on arch

Hi,
3 days ago I installed arch and I'm very delighted. Originally coming from windows I installed ubuntu on my laptop a few months back. Linux instantly grabbed my attention. So when I decided to buy a new desktop PC I compared various distros and arch was the most promising one. I haven't been disappointed; The learning curve is very good and the distro is really well documented. But now I have a problem where the documentation can't help.
I have the following setup:
- Intel i5 4570s
- SSD for os
- sda1: EFI boot partition
- sda2: ext4 with arch installed
- sda3: swap
- sda4: microsoft reserved
- sda5: ntfs with windows 8.1 installed
- HDD for data
- EFI motherboard
Install order: arch -> windows
Before I installed arch I read an article about how to boot virtual in an existing windows installation and nonetheless be able to boot normally into it and have the instances synced. Later I found out: VirtualBox isn't capable of booting an EFI windows installation.
As I read in another blog, other virtualization software like QEMU is able to boot an EFI windows installation with OVMF. So I followed the first article and created a raw image of my windows disks with
VBoxManage internalcommands createrawvmdk -filename w8raw.vmdk --rawdisk /dev/sda -partitions 1,4,5 -relative
and tried to open that image with QEMU via
qemu-system-x86_64 --enable-kvm -pflash OVMF.fd w8raw.vmdk
I get the following error
Unsupported image type 'partitionedDevice'
It may be noteworthy that the VBoxManage command produced two files
w8raw.vmdk
w8raw-pt.vmdk
Now my questions:
1) Is it somehow possible to open the created .vmdk file with QEMU?
2) Is it possible to create such an raw image with QEMU too? How? The documentation didn't help me
3) Do you have any other ideas how to archive this?
If you need further information I gladly add them here.

You have created a vmdk file that point to a real disk. The vmdk file does not contains the data in itself; probably qemu cannot open such virtual disk. The raw disk is simply /dev/sda in your case; you can pass it as an argument to qemu (provided you have the necessary permissions to access it), but ensure that the mounted partitions (the one you use in your running linux) are not accessed in any way by Windows (it should be the case if they are not FAT or NTFS and you do not have installed special tools in Windows to read them). Virtualbox can authorize the access of individual partitions of a physical disk (by using the VBoxManage command you mention), but I don't think this trick can be exported to qemu.
You can create a raw image of your disk by using the dd command:
dd if=/dev/sda of=/some-file.raw
but do that from a bootable recovery disk, do not mount /dev/sda while running dd (and have an external hard disk that is big enough to contain the whole image of /dev/sda).
But I doubt you will achieve your real goal. At the very best, Windows will consider that it run on a new hardware within the virtual machine. At best it will ask you to re-register and will cease to work if you boot it directly. Some OEM Windows do a BIOS/UEFI check to verify they have not be copied and will refuse to work in the virtual machine. You might also expect a whole bunch of problems because the same windows will run on two different hardware (virtual and physical). Windows has not been designed to be moved from one machine to another. If you want to have a virtual Windows, I would strongly suggest you to install it from scratch in the virtual machine. VirtualBox has more feature (some of them are really useful: e.g. the Windows additions that provide nice integration between the two machines; USB access, etc.) and is easier to manage than qemu. Just put VirtualBox in BIOS mode and install Windows (all Windows versions accept to be installed in BIOS mode).
