VMserver 2.0.2 and Windows 2008 32Bit Guest

Good morning,

 

Running VMware Server v2.0.2 on Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bits and have created two guest VMs as follows:

 

1 VCPU

1 Gb RAM

10 Gb vHDD

Windows 2008 Standard Server 32 bits

VMware Tools

 

Issues : 

Whenever I try to update each VM (via Windows Update) the VMs freezes (VMs only) when asking to restart the server. 

 

1 - My host (Win7) keeps on running and I not limited nor get any BSOD nor any slowdowns with the rest of my desktop apps (Outlook, IE, Firefox, etc..).

 

2 - CPU usage is low, so I now the VM is not consuming my CPU.

 

3 - HDD usage is low

 

4 - VMware server Web Access is unresponsive and I can`t log back into my VMware Infrastructure Web Access, error as follows:

"The server could not complete a request (HTTP 0).  The server encountered an unexpected condition that prevented it from fulfilling the request.  If this problem persists, please contact the administrator."

 

5 - If I try to shutdown my host... it just gets stuck at the "shutdown" message and nothing else happens.

 

6 - When I reboot the Host and restart the VMs, the Windows Update (on the VM) continues like it has completed a graceful shutdown!  No errors or nothing in the like (but goes back to item 4).

 

Has anyone experienced something like this ?

 

Kind regards,

 

Luis
