Re: Failed to power on 'VM' - Error - VMware Workstation Pro 15.5

I tried the scripts but they didn't solve the problem so I created a Batch file that just stops the services when I get the error message when I try to start my VM's. I just run the script and then start my VM workstation back up and then my VM's will load without having to reboot.

 

Just copy this to notepad and then rename it to a .bat file The Run as Administrator

 

taskkill /f /im vmware.exe"

taskkill /f /im vmnat.exe"

taskkill /f /im vmware-authd.exe"

Hi,

 

I am trying to validate host memory and datastore space before I continue with script, I would like to exit the script, even anyone of the validation fail

 

How can I achieve this from below script,

 

please help

 

$vmhowime = 300

$intNewVMDiskSize = 1000

 

$vmh = Get-Cluster MyClus | Get-VMHost | Sort-Object -Property {$_.MemoryTotalGB - $_.MemoryUsageGB} -Descending:$true | Select-Object -First 1

if (($vmh.MemoryTotalGB - $vmh.MemoryUsageGB + 20) -gt $vmhowime) {

    $($vmh.Name)

}

else {

    "oh, no -- not enough freememory on any of the host '$($vmh.Name)' to provision new VM, hence exiting the script"

    disconnect-viserver -server * -force -confirm:$false

}

 

$oDatastoreWithMostFree = Get-Datastore | Sort-Object -Property FreespaceGB -Descending:$true | Select-Object -First 1

if (($oDatastoreWithMostFree.FreespaceGB + 20) -gt $intNewVMDiskSize) {$($oDatastoreWithMostFree.Name)} else {"oh, no -- not enough freespace on datastore '$($oDatastoreWithMostFree.Name)' to provision new VM"}

The return statement should do that.

 

$vmhowime=300

$intNewVMDiskSize=1000


$vmh=Get-Cluster MyClus |Get-VMHost|Sort-Object-Property {$_.MemoryTotalGB-$_.MemoryUsageGB}-Descending:$true|Select-Object-First 1

if(($vmh.MemoryTotalGB-$vmh.MemoryUsageGB+20)-gt$vmhowime){

    $($vmh.Name)

}

else{

    "oh, no -- not enough freememory on any of the host '$($vmh.Name)' to provision new VM, hence exiting the script"

    Disconnect-VIServer-server *-force -confirm:$false

    return

}

Are you using Linked mode vCenter server??

 

By looking at the error message it seems you have some stale service registration which causing this issue.

Hi,

 

You can use SRM or vSphere Replication in your VSAN infrastructure. You can replicate the virtual machines in your infrastructure to a different site. vSphere Replication is included in your current license. You also do not need to make a purchase.

 

Thanks.

For future reference, this only affects the non-seamless-window binary (vmware-view). Ctrl+Alt+Del works just fine with vmware-view-crtbora, which is the only version starting with 5.2 release, so I guess this can be considered resolved.

With 5.2 the patch is not needed anymore. Actually, it was needed only if one didn't want to install the Seamless Window feature. Regardless, you only have to put the following libraries from vmware-horizon-pcoip/pcoip/lib/vmware/ into /usr/lib/vmware and the vmware-view-crtbora binary (or the main vmware-view in 5.2 works fine:

GPU offloading with RDS Host and applications

$

So a bit of background. We currently present some linked-clone pools to users, 1 is just a basic desktop and the other is a performance desktop we used to run linked-clone desktops with shared VGA (Autodesk Inventor and Autocad) but over time and between upgrades of ESXi and horizon view our cards became unsupported for what we wanted to do so we are down to just 1 host instead of 2.

We have been slowly moving away from our standard desktop pool and now presenting applications from an RDS Farm.

 

What we would like to know is if it is possible to use Inventor and Autocad on an RDS farm and have it utilise our current cards?

what we have:

VMWare Horizon View 7.7

 

Host1

DL380 Gen8

Dual E5 2670

192GB Ram

ESXi 6.5.0

Firepro S7150x2

Fusion IO

Teradichi Apex 2800

 

Host 2

DL380 Gen8

Dual E5 2670

192GB Ram

ESXi 6.5.0

Firepro S9000

Fusion IO

Teradichi Apex 2800

 

What are or options ideally we would like to present the user with just the application?


Re: Running VMWare Horizon on Fedora

Sorry for late response, I haven't checked the forum for a while. I have no idea why you're getting that error. What happens when you simply run the bundle installer?

 

The recipe on my gitlab space for building an RPM package is of course not supported by VMware (I'm not affiliated with VMware in any way), but it works for me on Fedora 30. You need to clone the repo, put the files in correct places depending on your RPM build environment configuration and use rpmbuild -bb directly or create a "source RPM" with rpmbuild -bs and use mock to build the binary packages. Explaining the above in detail is beyond the scope of this forum. If VMware permitted redistribution of their client, I could simply point you at a public RPM repository which you could add to your system and simply run dnf install vmware-horizon-client.

Hi DEMdev,

 

Yes, your assumption is right. These DLL's need to be registered before we run the application. Otherwise the application will not run at all.

Thanks for the tips!
