Vmware - Installing Windows Server 2012 From Hp Media Cd
Recently I was assigned to install Windows Server 2012 R2 from a HP Media CD into a HP Proliant ML10 v2 server alongside VMware Hypervisor.
At starting fourth dimension I did encountered roughly roadblocks whereby the media doesn't permit such installation equally it is detecting the SMBIOS details (which inward this instance was created past times VMWware) therefore the installation failed alongside fault message "Incorrect BIOS detected as well as must last installed on HP Proliant servers.....blah... blah... blah"
Well, HP does convey a workaround on this as well as VMware acknowledged it too.
Just real elementary steps :-
1. Browse to the newly created VM invitee folder (example : VSVR01) inward the "datastore".
2. Look for a filename called "VSVR01.vmx" as well as download it to your local computer.
3. Edit the file using notepad programme as well as add together the next trace of piece of occupation into the file :-
Note : You mightiness desire to salve a re-create of the master copy file earlier whatever attempts on the modifications.
5. Once done, immediately yous tin install the Windows Server 2012 R2 from HP media CD, the residue was merely a mere follow-on-screen instructions.
