Hello everybody,
I'm trying to install the SIMATIC S7-1500 SW Controller inside a virtual machine on our VmWare ESXi server. This piece of software gets normally installed on an Industrial PC (IPC) of Siemens.
Does any of you have experience with this?
Current situation:
* I have deployed a Windows 7 Professional x64 machine (HW Version 9)
* Added a special ROM file to the *.vmx: "bios440.filename = FUJITSU211_314.ROM
* Added an extra NIC
* Use 2 cores (1 for Windows, 1 for SoftPLC)
* Enable setting: "Expose hardware assisted virtualization to the guest OS"
* Increase the size of disk0 and create a D: Partition (at least 450 MB free space)
* Installed the SIMATIC S7-1500 SW Controller
* Installs succesfully get SoftPLC and am able to start and stop it
Problems:
When I try to download my hardware configuration from TIA Portal. Based on this article. I get an error incompatible device.
When I searched this on the Siemens website. I found out that I have to install DiagBase. The only problem is that the installation fails based on this error:
Does any of you know what kind of software belongs to this product code C9E3F8B0-2465-49C8-B4FD-0E275AF83C56?
Thanks in advance! If any of you wants to know more information or wants to do the same please let me know
