Enable UEFI in your VMWare machine

-

VMWare Workstation 8, 9, and 10 support booting to a UEFI environment.

Create a new virtual machine

Open the .VMX file of your virtual machine in Notepad (or similar) and add the following line to it:
firmware="efi"
Save the .VMX file.

 

 

 

 

In addition, order to be able to select network boot, it is advisable to add a boot delay to the startup of the virtual machine.

This can be done by adding the line "bios.bootdelay = 5000" (time is in milliseconds)

Create failed for User 'TMS'. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo) User, group, or role 'TMS' already exists in the current database. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 15023)   To fix this there are two different methods depending on the version of SQL Server you are using. Both of these commands re-map the user's Security Identifier (SID) to match the sql server login's SID.   SQL Server 2008 / SQL Server 2008 R2 If you have already created the server login for the user, run this in the database with the login problem. (Change ' user'  to be the database username you wish to fix, and ' serverlogin ' is the sql server login to map the user to).  ALTER USER user WITH LOGIN = serverlogin For full details of the ALTER USER command see MSDN  http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms176060.aspx
