Vacation

For the next 2 weeks I will be on holiday. So I won’t be able to update my blog.

So for all you people who have to work…. Sorry!

See you in two weeks!!!

License problem with Vmware 3.5 U2

Many have reported it, but there is a bug in U2 for vmware 3.5. If you upload a license, something wrong and you wil get the following error:

This product has expired. Be sure that your host machine’s date and time are set correctly.
There is a more recent version available at the VMware web site: http://www.vmware.com/info?id=4.

Module License Power on failed

Duncan from www.yellow-bricks.com pointed out a solution on VMTN forum:

Find the host where a VM is located
run ‘ vmware-cmd -l ‘ to list the vms.
issue the commands:
service ntpd stop
date -s 08/01/2008
vmware-cmd /vmfs/volumes/vm path/vmname.vmx start
service ntpd start

But be carefull with this workaround, your vm’s will also get back in time.

Hope Vmware will release a patch soon.

Update 2008-08-13:
Apparently is was a big issue because Vmware has released a patch. You can find it at:
