Anyone using Flings VSAN Performance Monitor
Hello,
I download the OVA for the VSAN performance monitor (version 1.2) and during the install it asks what root password I'd like so I enter one. Once complete I tried to turn it on and it fails (something about Photon) to fix this you have to upgrade the compatibility mode.
I eventually get to the logon screen and type 'root' and then the password I set and it fails. I even tried the one on page 7 'vmware' and no luck.
https://flings.vmware.com/vsan-performance-monitor#requirements
I've tried 4-5 times now and same result, no luck from console or ssh.
We are on VMware ESXi, 6.7.0, 15160138
Any ideas?

Install a CentOS8 Guest on a VMWare workstation pro 15.5 running on CentOS 8 host
Hello,
I have tried to launch a new VM starting from the official CentOS 8 DVD1 iso (see for instance [1], with md5 sum 3ee3f4ea1538e026fff763e2b284a6f20b259d91d1ad5688f5783a67d279423b ):
In first step, I choose "typical (recomended)" installation, then next.
I then select Use ISO Image and browse to the correct location on my drive.
The wizard says then:
- CentOS version 5 and earlier 64-bit detected.
- This operating system will use Easy install
=> If I go on so, the install will fail and I get errors that come from the ks.config saying that the package section is not correctly closed by a %end tag (I assume the easy install uses an old kickstart file that was OK for CentOS 5 but not for CentOS 8, but I did not dig further)
=> I could workaround the issue and install the VM using the "Custom (advanced)" installation, defining the OS as Other linux with 4.x+ kernel, but I am not totally happy with this.
Has anyone insight on the subject?
Is CentOS 8 supported, both as host and guest?
I am using VMware® Workstation 15 Pro, 15.5.1 build-15018445 with the 30 days trial to evaluate the application.
Thanks

VMware Horizon - Issue with OpenGL - Windows 10, nVidia
Hello, wondering if anyone has come across this before.
Some of our clients are geting an issue with apps that use OpenGL in Windows 10. We see an event:
The description for Event ID 1 from source NVIDIA OpenGL Driver cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.
If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.
The following information was included with the event:
The GPU has been disconnected and this application may become unresponsive.
Error code: 10
(pid=11292 tid=5288 acam.exe 64bit)
Visit http://www.nvidia.com/page/support.html for more information.
This and other very similar events have occured, no pattern to them, just randomly occurs. Windows 7 has never come across this issue.
I followed this link: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1024452/opengl/bug-report-nvoglv64-dll/ which talks about increasing the timeout, which I have tried. Just wanted to see what else could be causing this, if others have come across this.
As there is an issue with our version of W10 on ESXi and using VMFS6, we have been using Windows 10 1703. A bit more info on our setup:
VMware Horizon 7.8
Windows 10 1703
nVidia Tesla M10, windows driver 411.81
Driver vib 410.68
VMFS5 datastore
Apps I have found that are impacted by this are AlphaCam and CATIA. Not sure if that means they are the cause, or if they are just affected because they are utilising the graphics card. There was a link to the 3DConnexion app for our Space Pilot Pros, but this error occurs whether that is in use or not.
I can provide more info if anyone picks this up or is interested in this issue. Any help would be grealty appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

ScsiLun and matched Datastore report?
I'm trying to formulate a report using PowerCLI, which will list all the available LUNs, along with if they are connected to a datastore and if so, which hosts are connected
Desired output would be something like:
CanonicalName : (Always present)
LunUUID : (Always present)
Datastore : (Blank if not connected to Datastore)
FreeSpaceGB : (If connected to a datastore)
CapacityGB : (Always present)
FilePath : (File system path e.g /vmfs/volumes/5ddddd67-7cfcf0c8-d747-48ff3772cc60/
ConnectedHosts: (List of connected hosts)
From examples I've seen, it seems that I wil have to match the result of Get-ScsiLun to Get-Datastore to retrieve all the information I need, so I've got this far:
$Clustername = 'AMD'
$ClusterHosts = Get-Cluster$Clustername | Get-VMHost
Write-Host"Retrieving cluster datastore details..." -NoNewline
$DSdetail = Get-Datastore | ForEach-Object {
$CanonicalName = (Get-View$_).Info.Vmfs.Extent.diskname
$DSpath = ([string]$_.ExtensionData.Info.Url).replace("ds://","")
[pscustomobject]@{
CanonicalName = $CanonicalName
Datastore = $_.Name
FreeSpaceGB = $_.FreeSpaceGB
CapacityGB = $_.CapacityGB
FilePath = $DSpath
}
Write-Host"." -NoNewline
}
Write-Host"`r`nDone"
$LunDetail = ForEach($VMHostin$ClusterHosts) {
Write-Host"Retrieving LUNs from $VMHost"
$Luns = Get-ScsiLun -VmHost $VMHost
Write-Host"Matching LUNs to Datastores"
$Luns | ForEach-Object {
If ($_.CanonicalName -in $DSdetail.CanonicalName) {
$MatchedDS = $DSdetail | Where-Object CanonicalName -eq $_.CanonicalName
}
}
}
However I'm struggling with trying to get my desired output from here, especially getting all the VMHosts into a single field. Can someone point me in the right direction please?

Automatic scaling for Microsoft RDP protocol
Hi Team,
I noticed that VMware blast protocol helps us to automatic scaling of VDI machine. However, if I choose Microsoft RDP then automatic scaling is not happening instead I see both horizontal and vertical scroll bar if I reduce the size. Is there a way to use automatic scaling for Microsoft RDP as well?
Thanks,

Récupération d'une VM
Bonjour à tous,
Pour résumer ma situation.
J'ai monté sur un ordinateur lambda exsi 6.7.0.
Je peux me connecter dessus à l'aide d'un autre ordinateur gràce à VMware.
Cependant voilà mon problème:
J'ai reçu une VM qui fonctionné auparant sur ESXI 5.5 et sur un Linux/Debian 7 64
J'arrive à créer une VM sur Linux/Debian 7.
Cependant il m'est impossible de créer une VM à partir de ce dossier.
j'aimerais ainsi savoir si c'est un soucis de compatibilité de version et comment résoudre ce dernier ?
Quand j'essaye de réer la VM à l'aide des fichiers à ma disposition,
L'erreur affichée la plus fréquente est "Unable to enumerate all disks".
J'ai eu beau rechercher sur les forums je ne trouve rien qui fasse fonctionner ma VM
Est-ce que quelqu'un pourrait me venir en aide ?

Audio not working on Windows 10 VM after v12.5.4 upgrade
I have two, 64-bit Windows 10 Pro VMs running on a Windows 10 Pro host. The host is a Dell Latitude E-6430.
One of the VMs rolled up just fine, but the other is throwing errors regarding the audio controller. The speaker icon in the system tray is marked with a red X. When clicked, Windows attempts to repair the error and fails. Device Manager does not show an entry for Sound, Video, and Game Controllers like the 'good' VM does, but rather an entry for Other Devices where the Multimedia Audio Controller is shown with a yellow triangle and the device status is listed as Code 28, "The drivers for this device are not installed".
I've rerun the VMWare tools update; first Repair, then Modify where I removed the device from both Device Manager and VMWare, rebooted, reinstalled, and the condition persists. I've tried manually installing the driver, but that fails with the message "The installation failed because a function driver was not specified for this device instance". References for this type of error harken back to Win XP and Vista days; I've tried what I've seen but nothing has worked so far.
Can anyone offer any sage advice?
Kind regards,

Both vSAN uplinks down impact
Hi,
Am testing a scenario to observe the outcome when a host loses both vSAN Dist Switch uplinks.
I am seeing that when this occurs the test VM gets restarted by HA on another Host and it’s accessible again.
However vCenter (6.7) shows the VM as residing on the new host at one time, then on next refresh it shows it residing on the old Host.
When browsing to the old host VM list (still accessible as only vSAN uplinks brought down) it shows the test VM in the VM list and the when it refreshes it disappears and VM is listed on the other Host it failed over to.
Any suggestion why the behaviour is occurring and what further actions are needed?
Thanks

Migrating to new storage system
Trying to figure out the best way to migrate vms to a new storage system. I am using SAS/HBA. I have two SAS ports on each host. Can I connect the host to both storage systems via SAS to move the vms? Should I change the multipathing to fixed? Currently round robin. Unsure how to proceed with this migration. Thanks

Has OpenGL guest OS support disappeared?
I've been running a MaxOS 10.14 guest on my 10.15 Catalina system so that I can run a 32 bit application that uses OpenGL ever since I moved to Catalina.
With the latest MacOS update (10.15.3) and VM Fusion update (11.5.1) the application can no longer detect OpenGL and quits.
Does anyone know if -
1. Does Fusion rely on the host system's OpenGL and just pass graphics calls through?
2. Has Apple finally moved from Depricated to Gone on OpenGL (bad move Apple)?
3. Has Fusion any way of providing OpenGL graphics access to virtual machines without the underlying OS helping out - if Apple pulls OpenGL then what?
Of interest is that my Linux Mint VM (Mint 19.3) seems perfectly happy and has no problem displaying graphics - but then I think Linux uses graphics drivers and a compete OpenGL as needed.
I wonder if Parallels would work since they provide a software video driver of sorts.

Skip Initial Power On
Hello,
after an Upgrade from vRA 7.1 to 7.4 the BasicVmWorkflow has the new state initalPowerOn. I don't want the machine automatically powering on an tried to trigger a workflow with subscriptions. But neither with output variable workflowNextState = BuildComplete nor withvirtualMachineEvent = OnCreatingMachineComplete i can skip the initial power on.
The Subscriptios is configured to run the workflow at state PRE and state name BasicVmWorkflow.InitialPowerOn. The Workflow starts about 30 seconds before the machine is powered on.
