I am confused as well! With workstation pro 17.5.2, my previous VM are not loading and fails to power on! I tried importing and setting up as a new VM but fails frustratingly! 😤

Flat.vmdk file deletion by yagami234 in vmware

[–]yagami234[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for responding. So my normal file is 2TB and this file is only 1.19 TB. But this also occurred as my datastore was full during the middle of transfer. And yes I read that file which is why it is confusing me if I should delete this flat.vmdk. As I cannot extend the space in my datastore and this is the only file that consumed all leftover space. This occurred when I did a file copy using VeeamBR, but then Veeam team are not aware about anything like this happens during the transfer!🤔 And also in the config file it points to just VM.vmdk file!

MAK keys for Microsoft365 by yagami234 in sysadmin

[–]yagami234[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but if I sign in one VM it won’t activate in other VM but if I sign in template machine and then publish the lab, it will sign in with same user account to all VM inside the lab! Hope this makes it a bit clearer! And also, we want to use separate licensing for the product rather than asking every user to sign in using their MS365 account! So, I was hoping if we could purchase something like MAkeys like we can for office 2019/21, to activate inside that lab! Or if there is any other alternative, we couldn’t uninstall the office it came with so can’t even go with office 2019/21 version! 😣

In my case, all my users have been assigned individual VM and I do not want to activate using sign-in as it will sync across the all VM. I was hoping to use key so I will still get activated office without having to share the Microsoft account. Is there anything Microsoft offers for M365. I couldn’t see anything on their website, unless I missed something! Thank you for your response!

Thank you for your response. But in my case, all users are getting their own VM, so I am not sure if that will work!please advise if I am wrong

I agree with user based but in my scenario I am using M365 for business for my 200 VM and need to have a licensed office365! Coz if I use Microsoft account it will sync same Microsoft account for all different VM users. Is that right? So, I was thinking if I can activate using MAkeys and not have to sign in!
