2 ESX servers with 2 switches from Dell

Hello everyone,

I have a question about switching configurations.

I have 2 ESX servers with 2 network for LAN traffic cards each.

vmnic0 to switch1

vmnic1 in the switch2

the two switches are shared resources to the spine.

My question is what do I have to configure something on the vswitch or switch1 and switch2 or simply to connect the cables and to feel happy?

Dennis

Unless you have a special Setup and many customers with access to the virtual machine, I do not think that the aggregation of links (with vSwitches standard it is limited in any case) will make a difference. Please take a look at for example http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1004048 to see what is supported or not.

  • ESX server with 2 different storage array?

    Hello.

    I currently have my ESX servers connected to storage DS4700 and most berries.  Each ESX is double path via a switch which, in turn, allows me to see my DS4700.  My question is, can I i the area my ESX Server so that it can "see" my DS8300 and I would be able to assign LUNS of my ESX servers with no problems?  Both can coexist?  I think I should use for my DS4700 host bus adapters and host bus adapters that are dedicated to my DS8300?  A UNIX point, these 2 storage arrays do not 'communicate' the same way (for example, SDD and RDAC).

    Thank you.

    Steph

    SDD driver is for the multipath. VMware has its own multi-channel driver that is shipped with ESX server, you won't not any 3rd party multipathing software.

    In any case to be abel to see camps Bay you have no need to activate the software multpathing. It is intended only to provide a redundant path to any logical unit number hosted by a single table through several MS SPs/Ports.

    Area just for DS8300 ESX Server and a new analysis should see the new targets and when you present LUNS to your host definetion analyze again another you should see the DS8300 LUN.

    I hope this helps.

  • No response from Dell.

    Dell goes out of business?  Seems to decrease the quality of the equipment and the response from the service and customer support is non-existent.  I have an Inspiron keyboard started to fail after only three months (2015).  After a month of going round in circles, it was determined that the keyboard needed replacement, which has been implemented very quickly.  It was March 6, 2015.

    March 1, 2016, I contacted Dell again, because the replacement keyboard had begun to EXACTLY in THE SAME WAY as the previous.  Since I was very close to the end of the year with replacement keyboard, I needed to talk to Dell soon.  I received a response on March 2 that I would hear back in BUSINESS a DAY.  Now, it's March 7, my keyboard is more than a year, and nothing has been heard of DELL.  My three additional emails have been totally ignored.  I'm still wondering, how many times has simply DELL a day working?  Once a month?

    I live in a House with four computers from DELL.  At this point, there is no chance he will never be a fifth.  Since they replace the defective hardware with more faulty equipment, why would I want anything else?  Because their response time seems to be on the same duration as the Pluto's orbital period, why should I try again?  Now, all I want from Dell is a reference to a source for a replacement keyboard which will in fact continue to work.  Can I at least until the summer solstice?

    We are not happy.

    Hi mefjr54,

    Thanks for posting.  I apologize for the confusion about your warranty service.  If you are interested in continuing to work with technical support or even the Department of security, please contact me privately and include your service tag information.

    If you are more interested in working with our technicians, the keyboard is in a few places: Dell spare parts or Parts - People.com.

    I hope this helps.

    Kind regards

  • How to get data from perf of ESX servers when VC is unreachable?

    Hello

    I want to get the data of the perf of ESX servers when VC is unreachable. When I try to connect to VC, although the name of username/password is correct, but due to some or the other reason, VC is coming as inaccessible, now in this scenario is it possible for me to get the data from the servers ESX and their virtual machines Perf? How to on this subject, if possible?

    Kind regards

    Deepak

    I'm confused by your reference to "profiles"? What do you mean by profile? If you're referring to something called host profiles this function treats remaining with configurations between hosts in a cluster that is compatible with the addition of new hosts in a given cluster. This feature won't be available before vSphere 4.0 and has Nothing to do with performance information.

    Please re-read my last comment, if you are looking to retrieve performance data, you must either connect to vCenter or connect to each of the individual hosts to collect this information. I hope it's clear.

  • Recently switched from PC to Mac. I have the CD for the CS6 Adobe Creative Suite for Mac and PC. How can I get the serial number of the CD Mac OS with no disk drive?

    Recently, I switched from PC to Mac. On my PC, I got the Adobe Creative Suite Design & Web Premium (academic edition) CS6. I bought the product through my school and have two installation CD, for Windows and Mac.

    I try now to download this product on my new Macbook, but do not have a hard drive. When I check my saved items, it says that I have the Creative Suite CS6, but under the platform, he said "Winner" and serial number is for Windows product. Of course, this won't work for my Mac OS.

    So my question is, how do I get the serial number of the installation CD Mac OS with no disk drive? I guess that the numbers are different because when I put the Windows product number in the install window on my Mac, it does not work.

    So my question is, how do I get the serial number of the installation CD Mac OS with no disk drive?

    You use this procedure to share your serial number CS6 win to Mac CS6.

  • Connect with independent switches vSwitch

    Hi all

    I am a newbie in VMWare and really not had in networking. Need your suggestion kindly for our VM infrastructure plan.

    Here's what I have (or will have):

    I create a small cluser (2 ESX, each with 6 NIC host). There are 2 stacked Cisco 3750 and stacked 2 4524GT Nortel on our farm in GE switch. Up to now, we have 6 virtual machines, but we intend to put all the servers the VM infrastructure.

    That was my previous plan:

    I did some research in the documents of VMWare and BBS.  I plan to ESX hosts connected to Cisco units, their link to GE in 2 units of the evening. Configure NETWORK adapters, port channels, load balancing, etc...

    An incident has changed my mind. A month before our network, group support updated nortel switches firmware. It's a nightmare. The Nortels 2 were dead after the upgrade. Had to pass all connections to the server of Nortel to Cisco and roll after that the call of Nortel has been set.

    My question:

    So let's say that sometimes the stackable switches will be dead together. Yes, I can connect an ESX with Cisco and another with Nortel. When stacked Cisco or Nortel is dead, we have yet another host working with switches lived. But I can connect an ESX with Cisco and Nortel? It seems more stable, isn't she?

    For example, I intend to use the 4 NICs for production and other for SC and VMkernel network interface cards. The production of 4 network cards are rising in a vSwtich. Failover and load balancing works when I connect nic0 / nic1 with Cisco and nic2 / nic3 with Nortel?

    My recommendation:

    Configure NETWORK adapters, port channels, load balancing, etc...

    Forget it. No team, no port channel. Just configure the uplink as junction ports ports and set the VLAN on the virtual port groups. VMware ESX (i) (with standard vSwitches) performs Round Robin load balancing based on the original default virtual port code, which is sufficient in most cases. With dvSwitches, you also have an option to configure NIC database load. In both cases you can use ports on all physical switches without having to think about making active configurations / standby at all.

    On the beat of the heart. Usually, I connect the Service Console to a vSwitch with 2 physical uplinks, each on a different network card and everyone to another physical having redundancy switch. What I actually do is to put the Service Console and VMotion that vSwitch and configure groups of ports for active / standby to ensure that each of them uses a dedicated NETWORK adapter unless there is a network outage.

    You must also consider switching to (installable) ESXi as ESX will be greater in the future. If you do not need to install agents on hosts etc, the only change will be that you will not have a "Service Console" more. For communication and management, you will have a «VMKernel network management» instad

  • Physically move the ESX servers

    Hello world

    This is a really stupid question, but I hope someone can give me the answer. We have 3 x ESX 3.5 servers and a center of physical vitual server I want to move from one data center to another. We HA activated, and when I put one of the servers into Maintenance mode the virtual machines automatically migrate to the other boxes which is fine. I guess if I stop all VMs, ESX servers can be entered in maintenance mode and the engine off the virtual computer will remain on the server.

    If I stop all servers and the virtual Center Server and then turn off the SAN, also are the files of the virtual machine etc. safe on the SAN. My worst fears would be to power everything up and find that I've lost the virtual machine. ;-(

    Thank you

    The reason your virtual machines to migrate to other ESX hosts in the cluster when you enter the Maintenance Mode is actually not HA and DRS.  If you configure the DRS in manual mode or disable it just completely you should see is no longer this behavior.

    You should just turn off all your virtual machines manually (or using a tool to help automate as PowerCLI) and then go into Maintenance Mode on each of your guests.  Then, you will be able to stop with all the virtual machines that are currently assigned to them, if that is your goal.  From there as much as you ship your SAN and servers correctly it shouldn't be a problem power everything backup.  This assumes that the network portion of the House is in order and that you do not need re - IP all your ESX/VMs hosts once they are placed in the new data center.  If yes then obviously it is going to be a little more complicated.

    There are always risks when you physically move servers and the San from one place to the other.  It goes without saying, but try to make sure that you have some kind of environmental protection should there be a major problem.  Things like getting into a car accident or dropping the SAN on ground down as the stairs actually occur then you should try to get a full backup to protect yourself if possible.

  • Maintenance of two without VCenter ESX servers in a SAN environment

    Hello

    We are now second ESX 3.5 server to go along with good results that we have obtained from the first server.

    Our current server is deployed on a San EVA 4000 and the new server will be deployed in the same storage.

    I was wondering if it is safe and of good practice for storage of data even for both ESX servers, even if we don't have a Virtual Center.

    The ESX serve standalone, but if something happens to the other server I could simply import the files to another ESX.

    The idea is to have another ESX for development and one for the production server. Production ESX should suffer failure, I might just be able to down development machines and put online the production machines.

    I know that this must be done with HA and VMotion. But since I'm not licensed Enterprice, I can't do that.

    So, basically, the question was I should introduce vdisk to two ESX without Virtual Center?

    This will work, but keep in mind if the production machine dies for some reason, the VMDK files may not be in a consistent format to be installed on the development computer.
