VMware Workstation - known program for virtualization. This product is a powerful solution for software developers and system administrators who are creating and testing fully-integrated network applications server-class operating in different environments. The unique technology of VMware MultipleWorlds isolates operating systems and applications within virtual machines, and the disposal of each virtual machine is a standard PC x86, with its own processor and memory. With this solution you can on a single computer to conduct processes of development, testing, debugging and running multi-tier browser-based applications that exploit the new operating systems and legacy applications on one computer, install new or upgrade existing operating systems without performing partitioning operations drive and restart your computer. The new platform offers enhanced capabilities for application developers, engineers, quality control, sales of technology solutions and IT-administrators. One of the most notable innovations package VMware Workstation 7 has enhanced support for 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows. To display the status of virtual machines are now fully use functions Flip 3D and Aero Peek, implemented in the interface of Windows 7. VMware Workstation Package 7 was the first product with full Aero GUI in Windows 7. Enabling a single application-based technologies DirectX 9.0c Shader Model 3 and OpenGL 2.1, which can be run in virtual machines running Windows.
Key features:
Running multiple guest operating systems on one computer
Running a virtual machine in windows desktop core operating system and full screen
Installing virtual machines without re-partitioning
Starting already installed on your computer operating system without reinstalling or re-configure
Running applications on the Windows computer running Linux, and conversely
Creating and testing applications simultaneously for different systems
Running is not tested applications without the risk of endangering the stability of the system or lose critical data
Sharing files and applications to different virtual machines by using a virtual network
Running a client-server and Web-based applications on a single PC
Running on the same PC multiple virtual machines, and modeling of network
What's New in VMware Workstation 8
Remote Connections - In VMware Workstation 8 appeared connectivity with virtual machines that run not only in Workstation (not just on your PC), but with a VM on VMware vSphere hosts running VMware vCenter (ie, you can pick up right in vCenter Workstation environment and manage its virtual machines).
"Share" VMs - In the Workstation 8 users can share their virtual machines when working in groups (testing, software development), which provides additional collaboration (there is a snap-in "Shared VMs").
Upload to vSphere - In the Workstation 8 the opportunity to download a virtual machine from your PC to the server with VMware vSphere, which may be useful for the deployment of the service being developed on a PC in a virtual enterprise environment of the enterprise (or "cloud"). Supports drag & drop a hierarchy of virtual machines in vSphere.
New User Interface - The user interface has been significantly reworked, there vyakie "prettiness" in the menu, animated icons, improved setup screens. Also there was a "library of virtual machines" with advanced search capabilities (not just on your desktop, but also on other hosts from Workstation and vSphere).
Improved Virtual Machine Capabilities - Added support for HD with 7.1 surround sound, support for standard USB device 3, and Bluetooth. In addition, there are many improvements in the components of virtual SMP (can be switched-off and support for Virtual VT-X/EPT AMD-V/RVI), increased the performance of 3D-graphics as well as an opportunity to create virtual machines with 64 GB of memory. Now supports 64-bit guest operating systems running as virtual machines on a virtual ESXi (double virtualization).
Changes in version 8.0.4 Build 744 019:
General Issues
Linux guests running the Linux kernel version 2.6.34 or later could not be pinged from the host via an IPv6 address.
On rare occasions, Linux guests would suddenly fail to Autofit or enter Unity.
Unity mode would exit if the title bar of an application contained certain non UTF-8 encoded extended ASCII characters.
On Windows hosts, the VMware Workstation user interface sometimes became unresponsive when minimized from full-screen mode if the suggestion balloon was being displayed.
On Windows hosts, the user interface sometimes became unresponsive if the application was rendered on an extended display that was abruptly disconnected.
Security Issues
VMware host Checkpoint file memory corruption. Input data was not properly validated when loading Checkpoint files. This issue could have allowed an attacker with the ability to load a specially crafted Checkpoint file to execute arbitrary code on the host. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2012-3288 to this issue.
VMware virtual machine remote device denial of service. A device (such as CD-ROM or keyboard) that is available to a virtual machine while physically connected to a system that does not run the virtual machine is referred to as a remote device. Traffic coming from remote virtual devices was incorrectly handled. Could this issue have allowed an Attacker Who was Capable of manipulating the Remote Traffic from a virtual device to crash the virtual Machine.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project (cve.mitre.org) Has the Assigned Name CVE-2012-3289 to this issue .
Main features:
Interface - English (translated from loginvovchyk revised 06/16/2012 ). Interface language VMware Workstation, selected at the beginning of the installation
