Using VMware Converter Enterprise in VMware Virtual Center
This document shows how to enable the VMware Converter Enterprise plug-in. This extension that is installed in the VMware Infrastructure client will allow us to virtualize physical computers on the network through a simple wizard. Ideal for ESX server environments and we are migrating our company from physical to virtual environment.
Using VMware Converter ColdClone
This document will help us when we have to virtualize physical machines and they are resistant, This is, any machine that gives us problems virtualizing using the VMware Converter Enterprise or VMware Converter wizard. We will have to use VMware's ColdClone or cold cloning. To do this,, first you must get an ISO of the CD, or from the VMware website or from a download program. It is a version made with BartPE (WinPE).
Using VMWare Converter
This procedure explains how to virtualize a physical server or PC on a virtual machine so that you can work with VMWare images. I usually use it when I have to work on a physical server for a long time and not have to stop end users, or in case a server goes down, have an exact replica and be able to pick it up when you need it. It details how to install the VMWare Converter and how to make an exact copy of a computer (it could also be made from a LAN team) and the best thing is that it can be done hot, Without having to stop anyone. Then, the virtual machine will be turned on with VMWare Workstation (AKI Your Procedure).
Scripts – Commands for Use with VMware Server
This document briefly summarizes the commands that we have available to perform from an MSDOS console or configure them as scheduled tasks. To execute the commands we will do them from the executable “VMware-CMD” that we will have in the directory: “C:Program FilesVMwareVMware Server”.
Resize or Enlarge a Virtual Hard Drive in VMware Server
Something normal in this world of virtualizations is that we are left with a small virtual HD and we need to expand it. So since it's the virtual world, it's easier than having to buy a bigger one, with a simple command we can expand our VMware virtual disks, VMDK.
Installing and Using VMware Workstation
It is the virtual machine that I prefer, mainly because it is the first one I got to know, but it does not have the advantage that Microsoft’s has (Virtual Server) which can be installed on a server dedicated to it and PCs can connect to it to load operating systems on remote virtual machines, consuming resources (RAM and processor) on the server and not on the PC where it is running. Of course, the disadvantage is that when we are out of the office we would not be able to connect… or if we need a virtual machine for ourselves it is more uncomfortable to do it on a remote server and it is better locally… they are two identical tools but used differently.
Virtualize VMware ESX on a VMware Virtual Machine
In this article, we'll look at how to mount an ESX on a VMWare VM, It's something unthinkable, since an ESX is intended to be a physical server that hosts virtual machines. We'll just see how to do it, we can use it for testing and for those who do not know what an ESX is like.
Virtualize CAG – Citrix Access Gateway on a VMWare VM,
In this article, we'll look at how to mount a CAG on a VMWare VM, How We All Know a CAG – Citrix Access Gateway is a physical appliance, performs the same function as a CSG – Citrix Secure Gateway, but the latter is by software – HERE.
