Hi Shanmuga,

Now, I really understand the concept of VMware and Virtual Machine. I have to install a VMware software (as per tutorial) on the computer I intend to connect my external hard drive (loaded with my Enterprise Linux Virtual Machine, and other applications like Oracle eBusiness Suite), before I can have access to it and do any work on it (Virtual Machine).

Before this, I have to transfer the VM files from the external drive where it is residing at the moment, to the target computer’s Vmware environment, in a zipped format, in order to reduce CRC errors.

Technically, this means one can only connect a Virtual Machine installed on an external hard drive, to another computer and be able to work in the Virtual Machine environment, only if you have a “Administrator” privilege on the computer, in the first place, in order to install Vmware on that computer.

Thank you, Shanmuga. Now, with this understanding, I can comprehensively implement “Virtualisation”.

Regards,
