• Is the host ESXi 5.1 supports Intel "Haswell" generation?

  We are running a cluster of 3 servers ESXi 5.1 - 2 of them are Xeon E7440 2.4 GHz (64 GB of RAM) and 1 of them is Xeon X 5460 3.16 GHz (32 GB of RAM).

  We want to add a new host running processors Intel E5-2600v3 to this cluster.

  However, it seems that both 5.1 and 5.1 ESXi ESXi does not support generation processors 'Haswell.  Is this right?

  I have a server ESXi 3.5 with 1.6 to with 20 VM local storage.

  Now, I want to continue to set up a cluster with a fiber channel storage. I want to know if this procedure is correct:

  Can I migrate the computer virtual host that esxi 3.5 for the new Vsphere 4.0 host connected to the SAN fiber channel?

  Are compatible vm ESXi3.5 to vspehere 4.0?

  ESXi 3.5 and 4.0 vsphere host must have the same processor?

  THANK YOU TOO MUCH.

  Hello

  You can move vms from 3,5 to 4, first of all, look at that if you move virtual machines in an othe data store, you must use svmotion or take off your virtual computer.

  You can run 3.5 vms in an esx 4 without problem. So if you want to enjoy the v4, you must first upgrade vmware tools, and the last step is to upgrade the virtual machine virtual material.

  Move all the VMS to the v4, and then reinstall the other server with esx4.

  Check the vmotion compatibility matrix and evc cluster parameters, you can mix processors intel, but not mix between amd and intel.

  hope find it you useful.

• How to correctly record the ESXi 4.0 and vSphere Client for free?

  Hello everyone.

  Can someone help me with registration

  of free VMware ESXi 4.0? I am totally confused with the process I

  certainly do not understand.

  My goal is to install and use ESXi

  4.0 and manage via vSphere client with free licenses free of charge for

  more than 60 dayes. Is it possible?

  Installation of its products

  gone without problems, but failed to save. I found a few

  suggestion on other threads, but nothing helped. Give me a hand please,

  I will be grateful.

  I'll write what I did:

  1. I went to the http://www.vmware.com/products/esxi/ site.

  2. I read that I can get the free license for VMware ESXi 4 and VMware vSphere Client.

  3. Decided to download this software, registered and was redirected to
     the site where I could download iso 4 ESXi and vSphere Client .exe

  4. Installation and basic configuration of ESXi on the bare metal and vSphere Client Windows XP without problems.

  5. I am able to create virtual machines and use it - it's OK, but vSphere Client know that I have to the 60-day trial.

  6. Meanwhile I received the email with "Activate your VMware ESXi license".

  7. I have
     Click on the link in the e-mail and was redirected to the same
     the site, where I can download the software, but on the top of the web page I can
     find information and a 'ESXI licenses""this license key is valid.
     "for VMware ESXi 3.5 Update 2 and later versions. So I guess it's also valid
     for ESXI 4.0. I'm I right?

  8. I would like to record my ESXi 4 software installed and the vSphere Client. Of
     I chose the vSphere Client Menu: help - & gt; VMware on the web - & gt;
     Sign up for now. The site ask me "series/license number Activation".
     Code"so I typed the license key. Iassume that this license key should not be placed here, because the web site of replay that: "Code of Activation of series/license number has already been registered. So how do?

  As I wrote, I'm confused. How to correctly record the ESXi 4.0 and vSphere Client? What I did wrong and how to fix?

  To register the serial number in your ESX4i host

  Home-> inventory-> higher level (your ESXi host)

  Tab Configuration

  Left side - features licensed

  Edit-> Assign new key for this host-> Enter Key

  Paste your key

  Confirm all

  Your ESXi server is now fully licensed

  Note: you no longer have the basic features and all the enterprise features that came with a trial license are no longer valid

• replication target versions support vSphere

  Hello

  I could not find if there is limitation between the versions of the unit of replication when I defined the target sites.

  I am creating the target between 5.8.1.10254 2915556 build and 6.0.0.1 build 2718739, it gives a generic error.

  Y at - it limitation?

  Jonathan

  Hello

  With all the RV releases so far, for vCenter for vCenter replications, VRMS version must match the source and target site (only this configuration is officially tested and supported), for example:

  1.0.x <->1.0.x.

  5.1.x <->5.1.x.

  5.5.x <->5.5.x.

  5.6.x <->5.6.x.

  5.8.x <->5.8.x.

  6.0.x <->6.0.x.

  6.1.x <->6.1.x.

  For vCenter to vCloud Air DRaaS replication, there is no such restriction.

  For the two vCenter vCenter and vCenter to vCloud Air DRaaS, based on source ESXi version target VR version features and different replication server are supported.

  Kind regards

• ESXi 5.5 support

  Hello

  Is there any word on when there will be software and support for ESXi 5.5 for the MEM and VSM please?

  After doing some digging it seems there is a provisional release for next week, but to be safe, I would say that in the next two weeks you will begin to see new released versions that support 5.5 ESXi. I would like to know if there is anything else I can do for you.

• Mode locking ESXi and Tech Support Mode warning

  I would like to be alerted if an ESXi host is not in the locked mode or allowed to TSM. We have more than 100 guests and sometimes, when these settings are enabled us not forget to return them. Someone did he write or know that an alert rules on this?

  Thank you

  Chris

  It is not collected in the current version (vFoglight 6.6). It can be done with customization, creating a script agent who runs a PowerCLI script for example and fill the results in a dashboard.

  I will pass this along feature request to product management to add the collection of Lockdown modes / Tech Support out of the box and also have an alert for it.

  Thanks for the suggestion!

• replication - replication of VM stop already eliminated vSphere

• Cannot connect to the ESXi 5.5 with VSphere client

  I have a new Dell server. I installed ESXi 5.5. I can ping and SSH in the host, but I can not connect with the vsphere client. I captured the vmkernel and host agent log management. I'm confused now as to what is the cause. I installed ESXi 5.5 on an SD card in the server. And like I said I can ping and SSH in the host.

  OK, I found that it was associated with MTU, MTU under voltage has been set at 1500. These are Dell switches if it matters. I removed the MTU setting for the management ports and then I was able to connect to vsphere with no problems.

• Unable to connect to new ESXi 5.5 with vSphere Client hosts

  Completed the new installation of ESXi 5.5 on two new Dell PowerEdge servers last night.

  Trying to connect to them through the vSphere client fails.

  I can ping both servers without any problems from the server where the vSphere client is installed (it is not a domain controller but a Windows 2003 server - it has not .net 3.5 SP1 is installed).

  If I try to open the IP address of the host in a web browser http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx expires, however, if I try http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:902 It connects to the server, but rather than get the web page, I'm used to waiting with 5.1 I get this message:

  "220 VMware authentication daemon Version 1.10: required SSL, ServerDaemonProtocol:SOAP, MKSDisplayProtocol:VNC, VMXARGS taken in charge, taken NFCSSL in charge." I get this exact message even though I have telnet to port 902.  So I know that I can speak to the host, but have no idea why I can't connect to it or they have the tools to display in a web browser. »

  Try to use the same IP address with port 902 in the vSphere client to connect, I get this error:

  vSphere Client could not connect to "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx".

  A unknown connection error has occurred. (The client received an invalid response from the server. (The server committed a protocol violation. Article = ResponseStatusLine))

  I noticed that there was a lag of 2 hours and 4 minutes between the host server and the client's server.  I have reset the time to match up in the BIOS of the host server.  The test gave the same results.

  Probably unrelated, but throw it out there in case it points to an answer, when executing the "Test management network", ping passes to the default gateway and the DNS server secondary (which is Google 8.8.8.8) but fails for the main DNS (local IP) server and host name resolution is faulty.

  Ideas, help or solution would be much appreciated.  I need to get the network to this customer virtualized this week, and I would prefer not to have to go back to 5.1 if possible.

  Thank you

  This is resolved.

  And it's one of those things that you just kick yourself for.

  I tried this on two servers, Server 2003 and using IE8

  Tested a theory using a VPN to my laptop Windows 8 IE 10 and it has worked perfectly, then tested on a Server 2008 R2 using IE9 and it worked perfectly.

  Installed Chrome on the two Server 2003 servers and worked perfectly.

  So in the end it was IE8 that was not compatible and all the problems at the origin!

  Thanks again to you Andrew for trying to help!

• To connect to a host of ESXi (free) in a vSphere 5.0 infrastructure

  
  I need to migrate virtual machines (including existing snapshots) to a stand-alone host ESXi 3.5 (free) to a member of host ESXi 5.0 5.0 vSphere infrastructure.

  VMware Converter does not work for me because it does not migrate the shots, nor can I use the sulition backup that I currently use.

  I can't use OVF for the same reason.

  A possible solution coud be temporarily add the old ESXi host vSphere 5.0 for the time needed to migrate the computer virtual infrastructure: is it possible?

  Another solution could be downloading files containing the virtual machines from the VMFS data store managed by the former host of ESXi 3.5 in a Windows folder and download for the data managed by the ESXi 5.0 host store, but I strongly suspect that it does not.

  Is there an alternative?

  Concerning

  Marius

  I think that the copy will be the way to go in this case. You can take a look at of Veeam FastSCP for this work.

  After copying the files, you should be able to add the virtual machine to inventory (right-click the file .vmx in browser data store) and turn on.

• 64-bit nested comments ESXi 5 not supported

  I get an error on "Longmode is not supported" when trying to install windows 2012 server on a virtual machine to a nested instance of ESXi 5 reviews.

  I tried all the proposed resolutions, that I could find on the forums.  Someone knows how to fix this?

  On physical and nested instances of ESXi, I confirmed vhv.allow TRUE config,

  ~ # cat/etc/vmware/config

  LIBDIR = ' / usr/lib/vmware. "

  Authd.proxy.vim = ' vmware - hostd:hostd - vmdb.

  authd.proxy.NFC = ' vmware - pass: ha - nfc ".

  Authd.proxy.nfcssl = ' vmware - pass: ha-nfcssl. "

  Authd.proxy.vpxa - nfcssl = ' vmware - vpxa:vpxa - nfcssl.

  Authd.proxy.vpxa - nfc = "vmware - vpxa:vpxa - nfc.

  Authd. FullPath = ' / sbin/authd '.

  authd.soapServer = 'TRUE '.

  vmauthd.server.alwaysProxy = 'TRUE '.

  VHV.allow = 'TRUE '.

  but HV still shows no VT capable?

  ~ # esxcfg-info | grep "HV".

  |----HV Support............................................ 0

  | - HV Replay Capable... fake

  \==+HV replay off the reasons:

  | - World Command Line... grep HV

  I started in the nested ESXi bios which is a PhoenixBios, but there is no option for setting VT

  In the graphical interface of vCenter, I checked "on" box below,

  CPU/MMU virtualization

  Use Intel VT-x/AMD-v for virtualization and IVR EPT/AMD INtel MMU virtualization nec training

  CPUID mask

  Expose the NX/XD flag for comments

  I also improved virtual hardware and the vm said vmx-09

  Saved and reloaded everything

  How can I get the 64-bit on the ESXi customer nested to work?

  The physical server is a Dell PE310 with Intel Xeon processors and I turn on VT in the bios that seemed to work correctly because I installed ESXi on it, more nested ESXi.

• vCenter 5.1.0b does not support vSphere ESXi 5.0.0?

  I came across a weird error today at work.

  Immediately after installing vCenter 5.1.0b, I tried to add a host to a data center newly created ESXi 5.0.0.

  I met an error that said, vCenter does not support the hosts of this type.

  I thought, really?  The compatibility matrix says it does.

  At this time, I left for the day and will answer on Monday.

  In the meantime, is someone met such a mistake?

  vCenter... can't stand the hosts of this type.

  Could you please provide the exact error message!

  At what stage of the wizard have "Add host" you received the error message?

  How the host is currently allowed? With the free license of the hypervisor?

  Hello

  One of my virtual machine does not respond when I am trying to connect through the console on my vsphere client. I use esxi 5.0.

  The thing is that I have several virtual machine works very well and I do not understand why it doesn't work anymore.

  When I try to restart the vSphere client, nothing happen or when I try to stop it.

  Does anyone have an idea of what I need to do?

  Welcome to this community!

  in some special cases the virtual machines enter State does not. In this case, we have to kill the VM process to bring the virtual machine online.

  the following KB explains different methods to do the same thing.

  http://KB.VMware.com/kb/1014165

  Follow the steps under "using the ESXi 5.0 esxcli command to turn off a virtual machine.

  I would recommend contact VMware support, given that the steps above are a little off destructive.
