Strange hiccup while doing vMotion on UCS Blade

$
0
0

Hi everyone,

 

I've experiencing a strange hiccup during vMotion on UCS Blade. I've tried isolating the nic for vmotion but still no difference. NIC's are 10Gb FCoE and connected on iSCSI Fujitsu Eternus DX80

 

As a test, I'm playing a movie/mp3 while doing vMotion and there is about a second lag just before vMotion completes.

 

Any thoughts?

 

Cheers,

Harold


Renovacion subscription only o (SnS) Support & Subscription Service

Hola a Todos.

La mayoria de OEM (IBM, HP, Dell) ofrecen junto con el hardware licencias de VMware, pero con el termino "subscription only"

eje: VMware vSphere 5 Enterprise for 1 processor Lic and 1 Year Subscription Only

 

De lo que encontrado el "subscription only" solo da derecho a las nuevas versiones (principales, menores y de mantenimiento) del Software de Vmware, pero no incluye soporte directo de VMware.

 

El (SnS) Support & Subscription Service ofrece soporte y suscripcion juntos con VMware, la mas economica opcion para configuraciones pequeñas seria VMware Basic Support & Subscription Service (12X5).

 

Se puede adquir o renovar solamente las actualizaciones del software es decir solo el  Subscription service (o Subscrition only).

gracias de antemano.

TCC sobre a Tecnologia Vmware HA, metodo de validação

$

0

Boa noite colegas,

 

Estou realizando TCC e o Tema é sobre a Cluster Failover com o VMware High Availability.

 

Estou quebrando minha cabeça no metodo de validação do ambiente que irei apresentar.

Gostaria da ajuda de vocês. Existe alguma ferramenta/software que vocês conheçam que possa validar o funcionamento do Cluster HA?

 

Por enquanto meu metodo principal é apresentar o ambiente criado a um especialista Vmware. Ele irá responder um questionario respondendo a perguntas o ambiente apresentado pode ser importante para uma empresa.

 

Se vocês puderem me ajudar como algum metodo de validação que existe, agradeço.

 

 

Desde já agradeço a atenção dos Senhores,

 

 

 

Marcello Rogério.

vCenter only points to one Domain Controller?

$
0
0

I  have 3 domain controllers  (Windows 2003R2) none virtualized and then  3x ESXi 4.1 Hosts which also  have a virtualized vCenter VM.  Access to  vCenter is controlled via Active Directory.

 

I  want to retire one of my old Domain  Controllers so I moved all the  roles from it etc as normal, then shut  down it to see if anything  failed.   I still have 2 other DCs/GCs.  All  desktops/server/user  services still work fine, but vSphere stopped accepting  logons and gave  me this in the event log.

 

The  directory server  has failed to update the ADAM serviceConnectionPoint  object in the Active Directory. This operation will be retried.

Additional Data

SCP object DN:
CN={40130314-98b1-4511-977f-3c890bf33946},CN=VCENTRE,OU=Member Servers,DC=fal,DC=local
Error value:
58 The specified server cannot perform the requested operation.
Server error:
(n/a)
Internal ID:
3390067
ADAM service account:
NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE

User Action

If   ADAM is running under a local service account, it will be unable to   update the data in the Active Directory. Consider changing the ADAM   service account to either NetworkService or a domain account.

If   ADAM is running under a domain user account, make sure this account  has  sufficient rights to update the serviceConnectionPoint object.


ServiceConnectionPoint   object publication can be disabled for this instance by setting   msDS-DisableForInstances attribute on the SCP publication configuration   object.

 

It  sounds to me like it is only looking at the DC I had powered down ready  to retire (called DC1 while my others are DC2 and DC3).  How do I make  sure vSphere is not tied to a specific DC as I guess this is what has  happened here?

 

Thanks,
Andy

Vmware Workstation 8.03 server service terminates with service specific error %%-1

$

0

Windows 7 professional x 64  SP 1

16 GB RAM

HP Pro3101 MT

128 GB free on C: Drive

Virtual machines stored on E:\VirtualMachines   923 GB Free.

 

Workstation runs fine. i can run multiple machines from the workstation with no issues.  However, when I try to enable Vmware Sharing,  I continually get this error.  Workstation 7 had been previously installed.

As per other posts I found, I uninstalled the workstation service and checked the box to deleted the previous configurations.

 

I then rebooted the workstation and did a fresh install of 8.03.  The installation requested the serial number.  However, it seemed to know where the virtual machines were.

 

I have not been able to determine how to troubleshoot this error.

 

Any input is greatly appreciated.

Paul

Hi all,

   Thanks in advance.

      I am not a  programmer, So may this be a silly questions.

               I am using the attached script  to hardening a VM. Where us the script do hardening in all the virtual machines  running in the host. But I want to do it in one or two virtual machines. I modified the script and try to pass my virtual machines name. But no luck and scripts fails to add the value. Please suggest to how to do it for a particular virtual machines.

Cruzer Fit & ESXi 5.0 U1

Hi,

 

Kinda new to the community and i've been reading a lot of posts of installing the ESXi Instance to a USB.

 

I have a server with the follwoing specs:

HP DL380 G6

2x Intel Xeon X5560

16GB Ram

 

I am trying to install the ESXi 5.0 U1 to a Cruzer Fit 4Gb.

The install went well and the installation guide says it is successfully installed and asks for a restart.

 

After the restart, the server would not recognize the USB key and does not boot to the ESXi that is installed to the Cruzer Fit

 

I have previously done a USB install on this hardware, due to hardware failure (Processor) we had to re-install the instance.

 

Any advise?

 

Regards,

Andre

I heard this from someone that delta.vmdk size cannot exceed beyond the flat.vmdk size means if used hard disk space of a vm is 1gb and then you took a snapshot a delta.vmdk is created and delta.vmdk cannot grow beyond the 1gb and then new delta.vmdk is created. Is this true? If anyone has any experience in this please share this.

VMnet0 adapter of VMware Workstation 7 missing in Windows 7

$

Hi All,

1.I installed VMware Workstation 7 in Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit.

2.In the Control pannel->Network and Internet->Network Connections of Windows 7 i can see only VMnet1(Host-only) and VMnet8(NAT) adapters

but i didn't see the VMnet0(Bridge) adpater.

3.Here the network is Wireless.

4. I checked for vmnetcfg.exe file in the Program FIles of VMware in the C: drive of Windows7 and the vmnetcfg.exe is existing.

5.while i am issuing ipconfig /all command in DOS it is listing

           a) wireless LAN

           b) VMnet1  and

           c) VMnet8 .

But,it is not showing me the VMnet0.

6. In the Edit->Virtual Network Preferences->Virtual Network Editor screen i am getting the VMnet0.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Before,

1.I installed VMware Workstation 7 in Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit.

2.I installed RHEL 4 in the virtual machine as gust OS.

3.Blindly i selected Bridge network while prteparing the Virtual machine for guest OS( i didn't checked whether VMnet0 is available or not).

Due, to that when i am using VMware Workstation the internet is disconnecting from the Host System(Windows 7).

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Would anyone clarify me that VMnet0 adapter is need on the Host System or shall i proceed to next level of installation ?

If VMnet0 adapter is compulsary, then how can i get that ?

 

Would anyone please clarify me on this ASAP i am working on this issue from past one week.

Bunch of thanks in advance.

 

Thanks,

Constant Change in Server Availability

$

Hi Guys,

 

I have recently set up Hyperic to monitor a couple of remote offices

as a trial to see whether it would work within our organization.

 

For each search I set up an availability alert that emails me when

availability state changes and hence emails me with the notification.

 

It seems to have run fine for the first couple of weeks, however what

I am finding now is that 5 of the servers seem to be changing

availability every minute. I am getting 5 emails a minute telling me

that availability is at 0%.

 

I am not super experienced with Hyperic, and am wondering whether

anyone could give me some pointers as to why this happens?

 

Thank you

 

Gary

 

View Manager 5 persistent disk capacity "Unknown"

$

Hi All. Have an enviroment based on vSphere 5 and View Manager 5. The persistent disk capacity in view manager showing "Unknown" status. But the functionality of disks in VM's are fully functional. I think it's happened  after changing datastore name. I.E. if the previos name xxxx_xxx_xxx, the new name is vvv_vvv_vvv. The view manager showing that the persistent disk in datastore xxx_xxx_xxx have unknown capacity, however the datastore new name is vvv_vvv_vvv. Can the Rebalance operation fix this or I need to chek something else? Also datastore which must contain persistent disks are empty. I need to migrate persistent disks from linked clones datastore to persistent disks datastore. How can I reach it?

XP-Image for VMware [VMWare-Converter]

$

Hello community,

 

At first, i hope that i am in the correct forum.

 

My problem:

 

I have two identical PC's, one with WinXP SP3 and the other one with Win7.
I wanted my XP in a VMWare on Win7 PC, so i made an image of WinXP with VMWare-Converter 5.0.0

 

I tried to start this image in VMWare-Workstation 7.0.0 but i got a bluescreen. So i changed the the *.vmx file.
Now i can start WinXP in Vmware-Workstation on Win7 but the graphic is terrible and the resolution is minimal.

 

Here's a picture:

Can i do something to get my WinXP in VMware usable?

 

 

Mfg.
