I’ve installed HA on my laptop under VMware. I’m using OpenHab, but I’ve heard good things about HA, so here I am.
I’m struggling to installed VMware Tools. Without that, HA kills the performance of my other VMs. I installed the SSH access. However, when I try to mount the CD, it tells me I’m not root. id says I am. Any idea why I can’t mount? I tried sudo, but that didn’t help.
I haven’t done much with docker. I use Linux almost exclusively. I’ll see if I can figure out why root isn’t root in docker. Very strange. The VMWare setup made it easy to give HA a try.
I’ll eventually install it on some other machine. I’m running OpenHab on a Raspberry PI 4. If I make the switch to HA, I’ll just reuse it. So far I’m liking HA, though I’m not to excited about YAML, I’d rather use python. Using a markup language for programming seems a bit odd and overly restrictive to me. But, I’m just leaning HA, so maybe it will grow on me. Thanks for your help.
any luck on this? I’m running the hass OS VM on workstation 17 pro and would love to be able to suspend instead of having to shutdown every time I restart my machine, upgrade vmware workstation, etc…
thanks for the response, apparently I missed the notification email until now.
so, I’m running the latest version of HOAS on vmware workstation 17.5 Pro and whenver I try to pause/suspend the vm, I get the following error:
If I hit the OK button on each of those, the vm is still active. If I immediately try to pause/suspend again, it pauses with no issues, but upon resuming, it gives another error screen:
there doesn’t seem to be any functional issues with the entire HA system post-resume, but given the size of my install, I’m concerned that there’s something wrong/ a bug in the open-vm-tools integration.
