Re: vSan disk errors when migrate
Hello,
Somewhat unlikely using 1Gb NICs (unless they added those and configured them for vSAN for some reason!), from details provided so far it seems is using either these:
or these:
I am pretty sure most modern Ready-Nodes come with 10Gb NICs as standard.

Re: O365 2013 Can't open attachments in Outlook
Aloha TDJB3,
Are you referring to the AppVolume 2.12.1 patch/update? It would be nice if it addresses this issue as well as a few others we are running across.

unable to edit vApp options in 6.0 web client
i have started using the web client now and trying to stop using vi client, i found that i am not able to edit any settings under vApp Options on any vapp/vm using the web client. the settings show up such as IP ,gw, subnet, etc... but i can't change the settings. the vapp is powered off by the way.
if i open the same settings via the vi client then i am able to.. but i need this to work in the web client, as in 6.5 there is no more vi client. i also tried refreshing within the web client.

Re: USB "device not found error" when adding to VM - ESXi 6.5
BTW, I assume the Aladdin Token device could still be connected to the VM but you still saw the error in the log. Am I right?

Re: esxi 6.5 usb printer - partial printing on guest VM
Thanks for reporting the issue.
Could you help provide the following
1. /dev/usbdevices result
run 'cat /dev/usbdevices' and get the result back to me
2. vmware.log
Before you reproduce the issue, please turn the VM off, and append the following line to the vmx file (if not existing)
usb.analyzer.enable = "TRUE"
Thanks,

Storage vMotion Powershell script will not iterate through list of Vms sequentially on a datastore after first Storage Vmotion completes
I have adapted a powershell script to login to a vcenter with admin credentials then iterate through all the VMs sequentially on a particular datastore(A) and move them to datastore(B) against a Vcenter 6 appliance and a ESXI 6 host.
The script ensure that the Storage Vmotion for a VM is complete before it iterates to the next VM in the list
The script works successfully for the the first VM to be processed but it is not signalling that the Storage Vmotion for the first VM is complete. So the script never moves on to the second VM in the list.
- What could be the error stopping iteration through the list of Vms?
- The script is a few years old. Is there a better way to do this currently?

Re: Fusion not working, windows cannot be activated, and unable to load any Windows programs on my MacBook Pro
I've installed, uninstalled, and re-installed VMware tools to no effect. None of the results you describe have occurred. It is still saying I need to activate Windows, but when I try, it says I can't because I already activated it on another machine.
I am trying to install my Windows application from a CD with my SuperDrive. But it tells me I cannot install it on a Mac, even though I have Windows running via VMware. This Windows application is only available on the CD. I had no trouble when I installed it previously using a trial copy of Crossover. But of course when I removed Crossover, it also removed that Windows application.

Re: Hot to configure VM to access the application from windows host
Hello,
What guest OS is the VM running? and what application are you trying to run on the VM?
Have you tried setting up port forwarding in VMware Workstation, please see the link below for instructions with how to do so:
How to Setup Port Forwarding in VMware Workstation 9 | Virten.net
This should still apply for version 12.5.x.
I'm not sure if that's going to work but worth giving a go.
Kind Regards,

Linux Host VLAN Interface Bridged Mode VMNET Linux Guest Cannot Reach IPV4 Gateway (Windows Guest Can)
Hi All,
I don't think the issue I am trying to work through is a VMware Workstation one but rather a Linux one. Looking for assistance in figuring out the fix for it.
Info:
VMware Workstation 12.5.4
Host is Ubuntu 16.04
Linux Guests is Centos 7 & Ubuntu 16.04
Windows Guest is v10
VLANs in bridged mode on their respective vmnets
Host Net Config:
ethX with ipv4 disabled <--> ethX vlan interface with ipv4 disabled <--> bridged mode vmnet to vlan interface.
Problem:
- Linux Guest cannot reach the gateway, yet it can ping other guests within the same vmnet.
- Windows guest within the same vmnet as the linux guest can reach the gateway -> internet.
- Firewall appliance has the arp record for the Linux guest on the VLAN in question yet the Linux guest does not have the arp record for the gateway (firewall vlan interface is the ipv4gw).
- No ACL's or firewall policies are blocking the Linux Guests IP address.
- Linux Guests networking works fine when changing their VM's NIC to vmnet bridged mode of the ethX adapter (Host's default vlan / non-vlan interface) with the applicable ip/nm/gw for that network.
I have looked into the rp_filter within the Linux guest without success ( Why does Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and above invalidate / discard packets when the route for outbound traffic differs f… )
Any idea what the issue + fix is? Thanks.

Re: VCSA 6.5 appliance deployment issue
Hello,
I had this same issue when I deployed VCSA 6.5 from the .ova template.
I was doing mine in VMware Workstation and it just never got past the RPM stage. After looking online for ages it said to change the nic to "Host Only" from "Bridged" during the initial power on, so giving it no external network access, this then for some reason fixed it and I never saw the RPM installing screen again.
I'm not sure how that relates to a normal production environment and deployment, as you would just point the install at a host, but hopefully this might give some sort of help or ideas!

Re: Updating fujitsu customized image

You are best to keep with the custom ISOs because drivers/vibs may have also been updated (assuming your server is supported).

Combining the PowerCLI result for NTP and DNS server to .CSV file ?
Hi All,
I wonder if it is possible to combine the below two PowerCLI line so the exported result can be in .CSV format ?
Get-VMHost | Sort Name | Select Name, @{N="NTP";E={Get-VMHostNtpServer $_}}
Get-VMHost | Get-VMHostNetwork
Thanks in advance.

Re: ESXiの過去のCPU使用率
こんにちは。
ESXi / VM の過去のCPUリソース使用状況については、vSphere Client か Web Client のパフォーマンス チャートを確認するとよいと思います。
直近の1時間（リアルタイム）は20秒単位、それ以降は期間によってロールアップされますが、おおよその使用率がわかります。
リアルタイム以外ですと、確認できるカウンタは減りますが、CPUの使用率(%)と使用量(MHz) のカウンタがあります。
チャート表示する期間は、チャートオプションから選択できます。
ただし、vSphere Client で ESXi に直接接続している場合は 直近の1時間しか性能値が残っていません。
以上です。ご参考まで。

Re: Combining the PowerCLI result for NTP and DNS server to .CSV file ?
Hello, -
It sure is! You can get those properties in a single returned object per VMHost like:
Get-VMHost|Get-VMHostNetwork|SelectHostName,DomainName,DnsFromDhcp, `
ConsoleGateway,ConsoleGatewayDevice,DnsAddress, @{N="NTP";E={Get-VMHostNtpServer$_.VMHost}}
That should give you some goodness like (example for one server):
HostName : myesxi02
DomainName : mydom.com
DnsFromDhcp : False
ConsoleGateway :
ConsoleGatewayDevice :
DnsAddress : {172.16.0.13, 172.16.0.16, 8.8.4.4}
NTP : pool.ntp.org
Then, to export that to CSV, you just pipe all of that to Export-CSV, of course (add " | Export-Csv c:\temp\myFile.csv -NoTypeInformation" to the end of the line, without the quotes). That do it for you?

Appvolume is driving me crazy.
I am having a hard time understanding some situations in the environment using View 6 and App volume 2.9.
I would like to help those who have tried app volume
Current Status
1. The user program installation after appstack is connected is initialized when the virtual machine is rebooted.
2. To solve this problem due to the installation program disappearing when rebooting, we applied the registry of "CleanSystemWritable" described in 2.9 version user manual.
The installed programs remain, but there is a lot of content stored on the local disk, so there is no space on the local disk.
(Due to the lack of storage capacity, the disk size of the user VM is limited to 40G, and when the basic setting is completed, about 10G of free space is left. After applying appvolume registry over a week, SVROOT folder of about 8G is created.)
3. I tried to enable Writable volume (uia only). When I used it alone, the installation state of the program was saved and it seemed to be no problem.
However, while appstack was being added, the user's program was not saved again.
Questioning
1. By default, when using appstack in a desktop environment, is it normal to have the user installation program removed ???
2. Can I use Writable Volume and appstack at the same time?
3. If it is available, please explain how to use it at the same time without initializing the user installation program.
Thank you for reading my article. I would like to ask a lot of advice on troubleshooting.
