hi

 

How to solve this problem, if WIN2008 R2 server installed as a guest VM on vSphere 5.1 reports this message:

 

 

>>> disk structure is corrupted and unreadable<<<

 

 

We have already tried chkdsk, but it doesn't help.


Re: VMware vSphere Essential vs Essential Plus

vSphere Essentials and Essentials Plus are designed especially for small organizations just getting started with virtualization. Both provide virtualization and centralized management for up to three server hosts. vSphere Essentials provides server consolidation to help you get the most out of your hardware. Essentials Plus adds features such as vSphere Data Recovery for agent-less backup of your data and virtual machines. It also includes business-continuity features such as vSphere High Availability—for automatic restart of your applications when server failures are detected—and vSphere  vMotion, to completely eliminate planned downtime for server maintenance.

Convert a Linux server into a virtuel machine

0

Hi,

 

I am assigned to Convert two physical machines into 2 virtual machines. Its a windows xp machine and a linux server (Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES realese 3(Taroon Update 4)). They are "talking to eachother" and my goal is to virtualize them both and make them talk to eachother in the virtual cloud. I have managed to convert the windows machine but i have no idea how to l convert the linux server, any ideas would be appreciated. On the Linux server i can only use command prompt through out putty.

 

Tanks in advance

Re: Getting HA-status from PowerCLI

Thank you for reply. That DASStatus resulted in an empty column. That said, HA is turned off on all VM's, we just want to get a False-value.

 

The NumvCpu, Im trying to get the number of Virtual sockets, I Guess what the NumCPU shows is total number of cores - Virtual sockets x cores per socket?

Try installing vmware fusion and then virtulize it.. but then conversion still might be a question.. Mac OS on ESX is no

AakashJ,

The UWB it's a nice lead but seems a bit outdated...

I guess I'll have to stick to AHCI configuration and uniform distribution of the VMs across both drives.

Thanks!

Apologies.. I got it wrong.. its the other way around... Its for running other guest VMs on MAc OS analogous to Workstation on windows...

Re: ESXi 5 + software iSCSI зависает хост

Это нормальное поведение, когда примаплены iscsi луны и хосты долго загружаются. На версии 5.0 были тайминги ожидания iscsi, в версии 5.1 нет. Варианта два: ждать; положить все iscsi аплинки при загрузке. Сервера IBM3850 СХД FAS3240 (всфера 5), такое же поведение когда обрываешь аплинки, когда восстанавливаешь - хост оживает.

Re: Business Critical VM backup Designing

Hi Kaashif,

 

You have a few options:

  • Increase bandwidth between backup server and Exchange VM (Look at 10Gb, Netgear have an 8 port 10 Gb switch @ $1200, 10Gb cards are $500). Combine with option 2 below?
  • Dedicate bandwidth between back server and Exchange VM (Dedicated 1Gb Backup Network, preferably using Private vLANs for security). Build dedicated vswitch, dedicate physical nics in each ESXi Host, DNS alias etc for each backup target, check with Symantec if they support this, they do with Netbackup but I've never tried it with BExec.
  • Use a different backup mechanism - SAN based options combined with RDMs or a product like Veeam which can restore Exchange data from the VM level backup, check if Symantec has similar? This avoids having to do a VM level backup AND an agent based one for granular recovery.

Hope this gives you a few ideas!

Mike

Re: Authentication issue using vShield Loadbalancer and fw rules

If I configure Traffic from the External VMNIC-1 to the vse portgroup option then it works.

Is this because it is a load balancer and the services for load balancing are Edge services?

The auto rule allows vse to Any Any which I dont think is actually blocking or controlling anything?

Разве это нормальное явление что при падении аплинков до iscsi лун падает сам гипервизор и не отвечает на команды, помоему нет

Se hai perso la password di admin@System-Domain puoi seguire questa kb per resettarla. http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2034918

 

Altrimenti reinstalli SSO, Inventory Servece, vCenter e reinporti gli host.

Se mantieni il DB ti ritroverai eventuali resource group, cartelle ecc.

 

Ciao

Re: Host Based replication issue with VR servers.

Hi,

 

Please check the value of field "VRM Host:" at the VR VAMI UI (https://vr_appliance_ip:5480/ and navigate to Configuration tab).

If this field does not point to an IP address, but to a DNS name, check also the /etc/hosts file at the VR appliance and verify that the DNS name is on a separate line from localhost and 127.0.0.1 and the line for the DNS name includes the IP address of the appliance.

 

Could you also share the support request number?

 

Regards,

Martin
