Re: Consulting ESXI 6.7 web client failed to upload 1.2T .VMDK file

$

Virtual disks in vSphere always consist of two parts, a small header/descriptor file (a text file), and the data file. For most tasks - including the conversion - you will have to use the header/descriptor file (which contains a reference to the data file). The conversion you should result in a single .vmdk target file, which you can then upload to the vSAN datastore. This task will split the stream-optimized file into a header/descriptor file in the VM's home object and the vSAN virtual disk object.

First thing to try is to delete cookies and cache for this host's web address and log back in. You can test if this is the problem by opening a browser tab in incognito/private mode which will bypass all such objects.

I don't know where those are stored or what's actually logged when an svMotion occurs. You can self-discover this by manually initiating an svMotion in your vSphere and go check vRLI to see what info is captured. If you're not seeing anything, you probably don't have the agent configured on vCenter to forward the necessary logs.

Re: Workstation Pro 15.5 - ubuntu 18.4.3 - vmmon missing

$

I have found the answer. It is not the software but the UEFI BIOS of the mainboard.
+ Board: ASUS PRIME B450-A

+ CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3400G, 4x 3.7 GHz (Vega 11Grafik)
+ OS: ubuntu 18.04.3 MATE 64

 

1)

With one connected screen
the VMware Workstation  asked to activate AMD-V (vmware.log).

 

The answer:
+ CPU Configuration: SVM Mode -> enable   (CPU virtualization)

 

2)

With two connected screens
the VMware Workstation asked for something like AMD-RVI on top (vmware.log)

 

This caused the missing vmmon in the begining of my experiments.
The test with one screen helped to find the solution.

 

The answer:

+ PCI subsystem: SR-IOV Support -> enable

+ AMD CBS: IOMMU -> enable   ('Automatic' seems not to be enough)

Have fun with VMware Workstation    -   Happy X-mas

Re: A Horizon Lab för a decent money?

Correct me if I´m wrong but VMware does not seem to offer an opportunity to study their solutions with building a hands on Lab by install and configuring, if you dont have the hardware.

I must learn to install and configure the Horizon components.

I can download some Horizon trial software, but I`ve dont have the hardware reosurces.

 

But how about Microsoft Azure Free account for 12 months? It looks like Microsoft is Little more "open minded here"??

(tell me if I´m wrong)

In other words, It looks like I can Create MS virtual servers 2019 and then download/ upload and install Horizon trial Component in Azure (the free account Azure service)?

-But Is that a possible path and good solution in learning to install and configure Horizon throught an Azure solution?

Cant really see how Workspace ONE Products (https://my.workspaceone.com/products ) is solving my need for "hardware". Correct me if misunderstand your answer and your links.

Re: ethernet card config

No, LACP/Etherchannel basically just load balance across links. If you're downloading a single file from one server to another, you will only ever get 10Gbps. You could theoretically have a situation where you have one server simultaneously downloading a file from 4 different servers in which case the receiving server would appear to be getting 40Gbps when its really just 4x10Gbps. Depends on the load balancing algorithm you use though...

Cant start VM - File Provider Not Running

I have VM Player Workstation 15.5 on Win10 host, running Ubuntu 18.04 guest.  Everything was fine till I disabled my OneDrive on my host - sounds like a strange connection, but unfortunately true.

I had to disable my OneDrive on my host machine (for many but unrelated reasons), seemingly the VM configuration files are stored on the Documents folder, which was sync'd with OneDrive so unsyncing messed up something - but I can see all the files in the Documents folder.

 

Now when I try running the VM I get this error: "File Provider Not Running".

 

How do I sort this.

 

Also where is the setting that defines - where the config files should be stored.

If you want to install your own, and you have a pc or server with at least 32(64 is better) gb of ram and a quad core(eight core is better) processer, look at vmug advantage. For 200/year you get licenses for most VMware products, along with horizon. It also includes VMware workstation, so you can install a nested esxi lab that you can test installing everything. Its what I did to get experience with installing and managing horizon.


How to shrink VM having Workstation Player only

$
0
0

One of the common techniques I've found, is perform SDelete -z , and then perform "hole punching"  using vmkfstools command.

The problem is that vkmkfstools is available only on the CLI of vSphere product.

Is there any alternative method to perform that "hole punching", using VMWare player only?

Or any other way to claim the free space using freeware tools?

 

Thanks.
