If you have already installed Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 8, or Windows 7 on your Mac using Boot Camp, you can set Parallels Desktop to run Windows from the Boot Camp Partition or import Windows and your data from Boot Camp into Parallels Desktop as a new virtual machine.
VMware today announced the launch of Fusion 13, the latest major update to the Fusion virtualization software. For those unfamiliar with Fusion, it is designed to allow Mac users to operate virtual machines to run non-macOS operating systems like Windows 11.
With Fusion 13, Intel and Apple silicon Mac users can access Windows 11 virtual machines. Intel Macs offer full support for Windows 11, while on Apple silicon, VMware says there is a first round of features for Windows 11 on Arm.
Fusion 13 also includes a TPM 2.0 virtual device that can be added to any VM, storing contents in an encrypted section of the virtual machine files and offering hardware-tpm functionality parity. To support this feature, Fusion 13 uses a fast encryption type that encrypts only the parts of the VM necessary to support the TPM device for performance and security.
Virtual machines that are compatible with ESX 3.x and later (hardware version 4) are supported with ESXi 7.0. Virtual machines that are compatible with ESX 2.x and later (hardware version 3) are not supported. To use such virtual machines on ESXi 7.0, upgrade the virtual machine compatibility. See the ESXi Upgrade documentation.
VMware's Configuration Maximums tool helps you plan your vSphere deployments. Use this tool to view the limits for virtual machines, ESXi, vCenter Server, vSAN, networking, and so on. You can also compare limits for two or more product releases. The VMware Configuration Maximums tool is best viewed on larger format devices such as desktops and laptops.
In vSphere 7.0, deploying or upgrading vCenter Server in vSphere 7.0 requires the use of vCenter Server appliance, a preconfigured Linux virtual machine optimized for running vCenter Server. The new vCenter Server contains all Platform Services Controller (PSC) services, preserving the functionality and workflows, including authentication, certificate management, and licensing. It is no longer necessary nor possible to deploy and use an external Platform Services Controller. All PSC services have been consolidated into vCenter Server, and deployment and administration have been simplified.
In vSphere 7.0, the ESXi built-in VNC server has been removed. Users will no longer be able to connect to a virtual machine using a VNC client by setting the RemoteDisplay.vnc.enable configure to be true. Instead, users should use the VM Console via the vSphere Client, the ESXi Host Client, or the VMware Remote Console, to connect virtual machines. Customers desiring VNC access to a VM should use the VirtualMachine.AcquireTicket("webmks") API, which offers a VNC-over-websocket connection. The webmks ticket offers authenticated access to the virtual machine console. For more information, please refer to the VMware HTML Console SDK Documentation.
In certain conditions, the power on or power off operations of virtual machines might take as long as 20 minutes. The issue occurs when the underlying storage of the VMs runs a background operation such as HBA rescan or APD events, and some locks are continuously held.
A rare lock contention might cause virtual machine operations such as failover or migration to fail. Locking failure messages look similar to: vol 'VM_SYS_11', lock at 480321536: [Req mode 1] Checking liveness: type 10c00003 offset 480321536 v 1940464, hb offset 3801088 or Res3: 2496: Rank violation threshold reached: cid 0xc1d00002, resType 2, cnum 5 vol VM_SYS_11
In complicated workflows that result in creating multiple virtual machines, when you navigate to VMs > Virtual Machines, you might see huge numbers in the Provisioned Space column for some VMs. For example, 2.95 TB instead of the actual provisioned space of 25 GB.
In very rare cases, VMFS resource clusters that are included in a journal transaction might not be locked. As a result, during power on of virtual machines, multiple ESXi hosts might fail with a purple diagnostic screen due to exception 14 in the VMFS layer. A typical message and stack trace seen the vmkernel log is as follows: @BlueScreen: #PF Exception 14 in world 2097684:VSCSI Emulat IP 0x418014d06fca addr 0x0 PTEs:0x16a47a027;0x600faa8007;0x0; 2020-06-24T17:35:57.073Z cpu29:2097684)Code start: 0x418013c00000 VMK uptime: 0:01:01:20.555 2020-06-24T17:35:57.073Z cpu29:2097684)0x451a50a1baa0:[0x418014d06fca]Res6MemUnlockTxnRCList@esx#nover+0x176 stack: 0x1 2020-06-24T17:35:57.074Z cpu29:2097684)0x451a50a1bb10:[0x418014c7cdb6]J3_DeleteTransaction@esx#nover+0x33f stack: 0xbad0003 2020-06-24T17:35:57.074Z cpu29:2097684)0x451a50a1bb40:[0x418014c7db10]J3_AbortTransaction@esx#nover+0x105 stack: 0x0 2020-06-24T17:35:57.074Z cpu29:2097684)0x451a50a1bb80:[0x418014cbb752]Fil3_FinalizePunchFileHoleTxnVMFS6@esx#nover+0x16f stack: 0x430fe950e1f0 2020-06-24T17:35:57.075Z cpu29:2097684)0x451a50a1bbd0:[0x418014c7252b]Fil3UpdateBlocks@esx#nover+0x348 stack: 0x451a50a1bc78 2020-06-24T17:35:57.075Z cpu29:2097684)0x451a50a1bce0:[0x418014c731dc]Fil3_PunchFileHoleWithRetry@esx#nover+0x89 stack: 0x451a50a1bec8 2020-06-24T17:35:57.075Z cpu29:2097684)0x451a50a1bd90:[0x418014c739a5]Fil3_FileBlockUnmap@esx#nover+0x50e stack: 0x230eb5 2020-06-24T17:35:57.076Z cpu29:2097684)0x451a50a1be40:[0x418013c4c551]FSSVec_FileBlockUnmap@vmkernel#nover+0x6e stack: 0x230eb5 2020-06-24T17:35:57.076Z cpu29:2097684)0x451a50a1be90:[0x418013fb87b1]VSCSI_ExecFSSUnmap@vmkernel#nover+0x8e stack: 0x0 2020-06-24T17:35:57.077Z cpu29:2097684)0x451a50a1bf00:[0x418013fb71cb]VSCSIDoEmulHelperIO@vmkernel#nover+0x2c stack: 0x430145fbe070 2020-06-24T17:35:57.077Z cpu29:2097684)0x451a50a1bf30:[0x418013ceadfa]HelperQueueFunc@vmkernel#nover+0x157 stack: 0x430aa05c9618 2020-06-24T17:35:57.077Z cpu29:2097684)0x451a50a1bfe0:[0x418013f0eaa2]CpuSched_StartWorld@vmkernel#nover+0x77 stack: 0x0 2020-06-24T17:35:57.083Z cpu29:2097684)base fs=0x0 gs=0x418047400000 Kgs=0x0
This issue is resolved in this release. The fix forwards all #DB traps from CPUs into the guest operating system, except when the DB trap comes from a debugger that is attached to the virtual machine.
When an ESXi host does not have free large file blocks (LFBs) to allocate, the host fulfills thick VMDK provisioning or the creation of a swap file with small file blocks (SFBs). However, in rare cases, the host might fail to allocate SFBs as well. As a result, thick VMDK provisioning or the creation of a swap file fails. When virtual machines try to power on, you see an error in the vmkernel logs such as: vmkernel.1:2021-01-08T19:13:28.341Z cpu20:2965260)Fil3: 10269: Max no space retries (10) exceeded for caller Fil3_SetFileLength (status 'No space left on device')
Virtual machines with hardware version 18 and VMware Tools 11.2.0 or later might fail due to a virtual graphics device issue on the destination side during a vSphere vMotion or Storage vMotion. In the vmkernel.log you see a line such as: PF failed to handle a fault on mmInfo at va 0x114f5ae0: Out of memory. Terminating...
After updating to hardware version 18, some guest OS, such as CentOS 7, on AMD CPUs might fail with kernel panic when you boot the virtual machine. You see the kernel panic message when you open a web console for the virtual machine.
Some Linux kernels add the IPv6 Tunnel Encapsulation Limit option to IPv6 tunnel packets as described in the RFC 2473, par. 5.1. As a result, IPv6 tunnel packets are dropped in traffic between virtual machines, because of the IPv6 extension header.
During 24-hour sync workflows of the vSphere Distributed Switch, vCenter Server might intermittently remove NSX-controlled distributed virtual ports such as the Service Plane Forwarding (SPF) port, from ESXi hosts. As a result, vSphere vMotion operations of virtual machines might fail. You see an error such as Could not connect SPF port : Not found in the logs. 2ff7e9595c
