VMware Server client

  • ​VMware Infrastructure ClientでVMware Server 2に接続 ノウハウ(Tips)
    • ESXi 3.5付属のVICのログインウインドウで"IPアドレス/名前"にサーバのIPアドレスやFQDNでなく、下記のようにURLを指定すると、VMware Server 2にも接続できる。 
      https://127.0.0.1:8333
    • 最後に「/」は付けないこと。
  • 4.0付属のvSphere Clientでは別途クライアントサポートファイルが必要な旨のプロンプトが出て接続できない。

install VMware Server 2.0.2 on Ubuntu Lucid (x64)

The configuration of VMware Server 2.0.1 build-156745 for Linux for this
running kernel completed successfully.
  • UI with IE8 => attachment:VMServer.png​
    • 注: VMware on VMwareの場合、入れ子の中のVMは起動不可なので実用にはならない (ESXiはOKだったかもしれず)

install VMware Server 2.0.1 on CentOS 5 (x86)

  • SELinuxが有効だと、ポリシーに抵触してまともに動作しないので注意
    • /etc/sysconfig/selinux で SELINUX=disabled とすればとりあえず動くが、根本的にはポリシーを設定するのが正しい
  • sudo yum install perl
  • sudo rpm -Uhv VMware-server-2.0.1-156745.i386.rpm 
    Before running VMware Server for the first time, you need to
configure it for your running kernel by invoking the
following command: "/usr/bin/vmware-config.pl".
  • sudo yum install kernel-headers make gcc
  • sudo vmware-config.pl 
    The current administrative user for VMware Server  is ''.  Would you like to
specify a different administrator? [no] yes

Please specify the user whom you wish to be the VMware Server administrator
 root

Using root as the VMware Server administrator.

(snip)

In which directory do you want to keep your virtual machine files?
[/var/lib/vmware/Virtual Machines] /home/vmware/

The path "/home/vmware" does not exist currently. This program is going to
create it, including needed parent directories. Is this what you want?
[yes]

Windows XP guest with SCSI HDD

Autostart with host boot

  • attachment:autoboot.png​
    • VMware Serverではゲストの自動起動が可能
    • ホストの起動に合わせた自動起動は可能だが、自動shutdownのやり方は不明(ここでただ設定するだけでは不足？)

vmrun

install VMware Tools to ubuntu on VMware

  • sudo aptitude install -R linux-headers-`uname -r` make gcc
  • sudo mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom0/
  • tar -xzf /media/cdrom/VMwareTools-7.8.5-156735.tar.gz
  • ~/vmware-tools-distrib$ sudo ./vmware-install.pl --default

install VMware Tools to CentOS on VMware

  • sudo mount /dev/cdrom /media/
  • sudo rpm -Uhv /media/VMwareTools-7.7.5-156745.i386.rpm 
    Before running VMware Tools for the first time, you need to
configure it for your running kernel by invoking the
following command: "/usr/bin/vmware-config-tools.pl".
  • sudo yum install perl
  • sudo vmware-config-tools.pl --default

cannot copy vmscsi.sys

  • VMへのWindows XPインストールの際、FDDにvmscsi-1.2.0.4.flpをマウントしているのにも関わらず、「vmscsi.sysがコピーできない」旨のエラーメッセージが出ることがある。
  • ServicePackなどを手動で統合したCDで、winnt.sifに特定の記述があるとこのエラーが出る。
  • winnt.sifから「OemPreinstall=Yes」を取り除くことで解決する。
