Descriptions:
VMware Workstation is, without a doubt, a powerful utility that allows the incredible thing to be done, so that you can have several operating systems installed without the need for partitions, also making changing from one to another very simple, almost as easy as loading one more program. You can, therefore, simultaneously use several operating systems, combining for example Windows XP with Linux without any problem. Another of its advantages is that once the additional operating systems have been installed through VMware, you can use them individually and transfer them to other PCs with ease. The host program can only be run under Windows NT, 2000, XP, Vista, 7, or 8 but once done the possibilities of installing new operating systems skyrocket.
It is nothing short of amazing to be able to open an operating system within your own and run it in a window, without needing any reboot, as if it were just another program or in full screen, as if your previous operating system had disappeared. Another advantage is that the "additional" operating system installations are independent so that they can be moved to another computer that also has VMware and there you will have that entire operating system ready to go.
Characteristics:
Huge virtual
machines Create huge virtual machines with up to 16 vCPUs, 8 TB virtual disks, and 64 GB of memory to run the most demanding desktop and server applications in a virtualized environment. To give graphics-intensive applications an extra boost, you can allocate up to 3 GB of host video memory to a virtual machine.
Cross Compatibility
Create Linux or Windows virtual machines that can run on all VMware products, or restricted virtual machines to ensure the security of offline virtual machines. Workstation also supports open virtual machine standards, so you can create and replicate third-party virtual machines.
High-Resolution Display Support
Workstation Pro has been recently optimized to support 4K UHD (3840 × 2160) high-resolution displays for desktops and QHD + (3200 × 1800) displays used on x86 laptops and tablets. It also supports the use of multiple monitors with different DPI settings, such as the new 4K UHD display, alongside a 1080p HD display.
Shared virtual machines
Share and test applications quickly in a simulated production environment. Run VMware Workstation Pro as a server to share a repository of pre-loaded Linux and Windows virtual machines in all desired configurations with other members of your team, department, or organization.
Limited access to virtual machines
Protect corporate content by restricting access to certain Workstation virtual machine settings, such as drag and drop, copy and paste, or plugging in USB devices. Virtual machines can be encrypted and password-protected to ensure that only authorized users have access.
Key Features:
- Streamline software development and testing with operations. Create multiple developments and testing environments as virtual machines on a single computer and use them to test multi-tier “real” configurations, complex networks, and multiple operating systems and applications, all on a single computer.
- Improve team collaboration. The portability and hardware-independent properties of virtual machines, along with new features in VMware Workstation, allow users to easily share development environments in addition to pre-configured assessments without risk and also facilitate collaboration between development and control of quality.
- Improves the productivity of IT professionals. It enables system administrators and other companies to evaluate software, including new applications, application updates, and operating system settings, on virtual machines prior to development on physical computers or servers in a production environment. IT companies help departments can create and reference a virtual library for end-user configurations and to help them solve problems faster.
- Introduce the virtual infrastructure in your company. Virtual machines created in a workplace can be deployed to the other personal computers and servers or virtualization platforms offered by VMware. Introducing VMware Workstation virtualization to the desktop is an ideal step to transform your physical IT infrastructure into a virtual infrastructure.
Changes:
Problems solved:
- Unable to copy and paste into a guest virtual machine from a host machine
- Workstation Pro does not boot on RHEL 8.4 host OS
- Workstation crashes when copying files from host to guest OS
Use WinZip to combine all of the parts.
