VMware Workstation 6.5.1

VMware Workstation
Run Windows, Linux, and More Side by Side on the Same Computer



Key New Features in Workstation 6.5:

* Integrated desktop experience with “Unity”
* Powerful Record and Replay technology that makes software development easier
* Support for Windows Server 2008
* Link state propagation networking
* Simplified ACE authoring capabilities


Broadest Host & Guest Operating System Support

* Runs on both Windows and Linux host operating systems and supports most desktop and server editions of Microsoft Windows, Linux, Solaris x86, Netware, and FreeBSD as guest operating systems
* Supports both 32-bit and 64-bit host and guest operating systems
* Supports two-way Virtual SMP™ – Assign one or two processors to virtual machines
* Experimental support for VMI 3.0 enabled paravirtualized Linux kernels


Best-in-class Virtual Machine Architecture

* Fully configurable – each virtual machine has configurable memory size, disks and I/O devices and support for CD, DVD, floppy and USB 2.0 devices
* Specify up to 8GB of RAM per virtual machine
* 64-bit sound driver for high-fidelity audio and video
* Easily switch between virtual machines and suspend/resume them
* Easily copy and share virtual machines by creating full and linked clones
* Convert physical into virtual machines and import virtual machine formats from Microsoft, Symantec, Storage­Craft, and Acronis.

Advanced Network Support

* Powerful virtual networking options include Bridged, NAT, host-only and custom virtual network settings
* Built-in DHCP server, and up to 10 virtual switches, enable connection of virtual machines to each other, to the host machine and to public networks
* Specify network bandwidth and packet loss rate between virtual machines in a team
* Edit virtual network configurations for Linux hosts through the Virtual Network Editor
* Customize the preferences for physical network adapters with ‘substring matching’ for the adapter name for both NAT and auto-bridged networking

Powerful Development and Test Features

* Record entire VM execution and replay it with instruction-exact precision. Use the graphical interface to browse, add markers to, and edit VM recording
* Diagnose non-deterministic bugs with the integrated Record/Replay technology in the Integrated Virtual Debugger for Visual Studio. Debug your applications running in virtual machines in “record” mode and replay prior executions of the VM in “reverse continue” mode.
* Debug applications in the guest OS, attach to a running process, and revert to a snapshot after the debug session has ended with Visual Studio and Eclipse integration
* Capture and easily manage point-in-time copies of running virtual machines and “undo” changes with multiple snapshot feature
* Manage connected virtual machines and simulate multi-tier configurations with teams feature
* Enable remote users to connect to virtual machines from VNC clients with built-in VNC support
* Invoke any virtual machine command from scripts to automate repetitive tasks with VIX Automation API
