My problem is in guest machine how to get hyper-v host processor info. I don't want to use wmi for it need close the host machine firewall. Any help will be appreciate.
The Hyper-V API is WMI, so anything you do will ultimately call WMI.
The issue in your case is that there is no network path to the host or you've closed the port that that WMI remote invocations are made through.
The way XenServer gets around this problem is by creating a host isolated network. Create an adapter on the host with slightly less rigourous firewall rules. Add a NIC to the network on the guest so that it can make remote invocations.

I am trying to create a Linux virtual machine hosted in Windows 10 that has a unique IP address from the host. I understand that a bridged connection is required for this but can not find simple instructions for how to accomplish this.
When I change the network settings in Virtualbox to 'Bridged Adapter' and set the Promiscuous mode to 'allow all' the virtual machine cannot connect to the internet. I assume there is something in the Windows host that needs to be done but can not find what that is.
I am beginner in VMware. I am trying to understand the VMware components and how it works.But I could not understand how vsphere Client access the EXSi host. Is it directly or through the VMWare VCenter server.please give any reference or explanation to get the understanding.
Using vSphere client you can connect to vCenter or directly to host. Of course if host is added to vCenter you should to connect ONLY to vCenter because vCenter should to know about any changes made on hosts. Connecting directly to host should be done ony in emergency situations (e.g. vCenter is down).
V-Center is the umbrella, under which all EXSI can be controlled. We can assume an example of a company where we have 3 physical servers installed ESXi on it and each server has as many processors cores so it can handle 5 virtual machines on it.
Now What is EXSi ---- EXSI is the product/OS/kernel which will allow you to create the environment to run multiple Servers/OS on the same hardware.
V-sphere client/V-sphere Web client --- If you have only one EXSI Server and you want to control that server functionality you need v-sphere because taking direct connection of EXSI Hardware machine will not allow you to do much with it. so the v-sphere client will give you many tools to play with it.
V-Center/VC ----- Now what if when your company has many ESXi servers as we taken for example. V-Sphere can not control all of those into one centralized platform. Here VC comes into play. VC allow you to manage all of these servers under one tool and many other functionalities which are not available in V-Sphere like Distribution switch, V-Motion(Which allow you to migrate one VM machine from Hardware to hardware in the fluctuation of time or not human noticeable time ).
I red lot of post about this question without find the good answer. The situation is simple, I have a server (Go) running on Ubuntu 14.04 (VMware Workstation 12.1.0 Pro). It listens on the 8001/8002 ports. From the host of the VM (Windows 10), I can access it from the host (Windows 10) but from my Xamarin Application or the others computers, I can't access this server.
I tried lot of things such as port transfer, edit of the NAT propreties (of the VM) and edit of the vmnetnnat.conf file as well. I tested about bridge connection but I didn't find the way to make it works with this way. etc
I also did transfer port from my internet box to get the access by IP instead of private network address (192.168.XXX.XXX) but it didn't works too.
If anyone can help, thank !
By default your Workstation configures your VM in either NAT or Host-only or event in Custom network configuration what means your host computer (you Windows 10) is the only endpoint which can access this box without any additional configuration in your router.
I would suggest you the easiest way is to use "Bridge" configuration what you mentioned below by getting (perhaps DCHP) IP schema from your parent router (the one gives your Windows 10). Thus your VM will be available across your "Home network", Once done, check your ICMP (pings) from Windows 10 to your VM, make sure you can see it.
Second point is that your 8001/8002 ports might be closed by firewall (iptables) in your ubuntu / Windows 10. You probably want to check your both firewalls as your traffic is being routes by "Virtual router" of Workstation.
How to connect from a VMware guest (virtual) machine to the server installed on the host (physical) machine? Things like typing "localhost" in the address bar of a browser in a guest machine don't work. My host machine's OS is Windows 7 64 bit with WMware Workstation installed on it, if it matters.
EDIT: The Bridged network connection in combination with referring to 192.168.0.10* from the guest machine did work (replace * with a digit starting from 0 until it works).
If you use "Bridged" Network Connection (see Virtual Machine Settings: Network Adapter), your VM will be given an IP address on the same LAN as your host machine. At that point, you can just HTTP to your host's IP address, eg. http://192.168.0.100
You can also do that with the other options, but with NAT and Host-only (if I recall correctly) your host machine will appear to your guest machine to have a different IP address than its real LAN address. So Bridged is the easiest and is likely your best bet, unless you have some specific needs.
First thing to do: Check that you have the network up and running. Try to ping the host system or any web site from the console of the guest OS, let's say ping www.google.com.
If you received any answers then please try writing the IP number of the host machine in the addressbar of the browser on the guest machine (NOT localhost :P). You should be able to see any web service running (Tip: Open the console of your windows 7 and type ipconfig, then find the ethernet adapter corresponding to VMWare and you'll find the IP number of your host system).
If you didn't received any answer at all when you did ping then check the network configuration of VMWare to use Bridged Connection --at least that's how it works for me.
Good luck!
In a guest machine, localhost refers to the virtual machine itself. Refer to the host just as you would from any other machine: by its IP address.
Note that it may be using a second "virtual" network adapter to communicate with the guest. Check the VMware to find out, and to find the second IP address.
Just use the same IP sub net for your VMware machine, if your windows system has ip address class C 192.168.0.10 So assign 192.168.0.120 IP to your Vmware machine and make sure that Firewall allow the traffic in vmware and also add the listener port manually in vm machine. go to system - administration- firwal-add port 1521.
Thanks
I've been using VMWare for a while and am very happy with it, but I would like to compare it with VirtualBox. Apparently the disk images are compatible, and I have successfully booted my Fedora based VM created by VMWare in VirtualBox... but the network is completely unavailable. How do you port a virtual machine from VMWare to VirtualBox and keep all the capabilities intact?
have you tried going into the options in virtual box and changing the network adapter to the VB one? VB is a bit different in it's virtual adapters, you might have to create a new one attached to the nic and then specify that one as the primary nic.
Are you sure that network is completly unavailable? VirtualBox is known to have a problem with ICMP support so you won't be able to ping any host from the guest OS. I ran into the same problem yesterday and the network was actually working.
If the network is unavailable, you may want to check your VirtualBox configuration and make sure you have a network card configured. If you do, then the next stop would be the OS running in the virtual machine. An unfortunate fact of some operating systems is that they don't always appreciate hardware changes. If the OS is not auto-detecting the change to the network card, you may need to reconfigure it to support the new card.
Another possibility is that you were using a fixed IP address. VirtualBox uses a couple of schemes for networking that are a bit different than VMWare. You may need to change the IP inside the VM to match the expected subnet.
Outside the VM, you need to use either a bridged networking device or configure ports virtual ports through the NAT system if you want to gain access to your Virtual Machine.
