• problem configuring ESXi AND ADAPTEC ASR-240

  When I try to add new storage by using the storage wizard. shows the location of the device: device of vmhba2:0:0 with 464,99 GB.  Thus, readers seem to be visible... but when I use the next button to move to current available to drive I get a messge "Cannot read from this disk partition."  I formatted disks using the configuration of raid bios... nothing more.  Any help?

  You might want to start by using a live CD or something similar, or get in the console not supported if you are willing to take that risk and use fdisk to write a partition table for readers.

• Supermicro onboard Intel and Adaptec RAID configuration unrecognized in ESXi 5.5 U2

  Hi, I have a supermicro X7DAL-E r1.1b motherboard has integrated Intel and Adaptec sata raid controllers. To enable raid controllers, I go into the BIOS and enable the raid configuration for intel or adaptec. I tried two raid controllers and created a configuration raid 5 by going through the bios of each controller. However, when I start to go through the process of installing ESXi 5.5 U2, I see not a logical drive, all I see are hard drives that I thought were configured as a logical drive in raid 5.

  I know that I am using an old motherboard which is not on the HCL, but I just haven't the money to spend on equipment. I really want to make it work if possible. I tried to download ESXi 4 but it is no longer available . I understand I tried to use an older version to see if it contains the necessary drivers for it work and attempt to port these drivers in ESXI 5.5.

  I was wondering if someone actually got this similar problem with supermicro Board and whether a solution or workaround has been found in which ESXi 5 can recognize the raid configuration? If this is impossible, it can't be done, that's what it is. I'll deal with it or put in place.

  Any suggestion would be appreciated.

  Not sure about this 'r1.1b' version, but original X7DAL-E has no onboard hardware raid controller. What he has is i5000 chipset, which offers the raid software-(aka bios-, faux-, etc.). This is not supported by ESXi (for very good reasons). And even if it were, no cache, you would get terrible performance...

• a few questions about ESXi and SAN CF with HP P2000 G3

  Hello everyone!

  I am new to ESXi and SAN, then I need help for her.

  I have Encolosure C7000 system with 4 blades BL460c already installed ESXi 5.1U1 (HP custome ISO image). Everything works fine now, but I do not understand something:

  -What is the management network which I use vSphare Client to connect to? It is a private network to manage ESXi servers what difference with VMnetwork used by Virtual Machines? Because I've set up an IP address for this connection manually, but it is of course separate with IP addresses, I used on Virtual Machines.

  -If my system has problem, so I have to reinstall ESXi, license keys can be used again? Already, I have 8 license key for 4 blades (2 CPUs per server), but they have not yet used. Because I am new to ESXi, cause I had to reinstall ESXi several times to understand.

  -When I install successful ESXi, I don't know how to start working with SAN. What should I configure P2000 before it be plugged into the SAN switch? Or I can plug it then config later? Because I don't see it on the ESXi server. And on the OS I installed on the Guest Virtual Machines, I see nothing new in Device Manager. I thought that this guest operating system will detect the mezzanine card. But I see only mezzanine card that connect to the P2000 by SAN switch in ESXi (see image here http://img203.imageshack.us/img203/684/dsc04088k.jpg ). To my knowledge, I think that ESXi server have to detect the P2000 as hardware device. Can someone teach me step by step install and configure a San on ESXi? Or show me a tutorial because I searched but only iSCSI results.

  My devices:

  01 7.1 HP BLc7000 CTO 3 IN LCD ROHS Encl.

  04 BL460c G8 servers HP FlexFabric 8.5 10 Gb 2 p 554FLB FIO blade adapter

  02 7.3 HP B-series 8/12 c BladeSystem SAN Switch

  01 HP P2000 G3 MSA FC Dual Controller

  Thanks for any help, sugession or comment!

Because I've set up an IP address for this connection manually, but it is of course separate with IP addresses, I used on Virtual Machines.

  Yes, it's a separate network used only for traffic management between ESXi hosts and vCenter - it is also the network used to connect to the environment - that's different, then the network used by your virtual machines

  -If my system has problem, so I have to reinstall ESXi, license keys can be used again? Already, I have 8 license key for 4 blades (2 CPUs per server), but they have not yet used. Because I am new to ESXi, cause I had to reinstall ESXi several times to understand.

  Yes the license keys can be reused, and if you use vCenter licenses will be managed by vCenter

Or show me a tutorial because I searched but only iSCSI results.

  Yes, you will be able to configure the San later - by default, the virtual machine will not see the SAn, as it is virtualized by your ESXi host - all the VM will see is a virtual SCSi disk - this doc's guide to vmware for storage - http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-51/topic/com.vmware.ICbase/PDF/vsphere-esxi-vcenter-server-511-storage-guide.pdf - you can visit the website of HP they might have documentation on configuring P2000 for vSphere -.

• vCloud Director: using different groups of ESXi and vCenters

  Apologies for a question very newb-ish, but my knowledge of the vCD is very limited.

  VCD of can control and manage the following:

  1. multiple ESXi clusters under the vCenter even?

  vCD-> ESXi group has and ESXi cluster B

  2. several server vCenter, with their own groups of ESXi.

  vCD-> A vCenter and vCenter B.  vCenter cluster Cluster A1 ESXi and ESXi A2 A-> .  vCenter B-> Cluster B1 ESXi and ESXi cluster B2.

  I hope that all the senses.  I'll be happy to extrapolate more.

  Hello

  Please find the answers

  1. multiple ESXi clusters under the vCenter even?

  vCD-> ESXi group has and ESXi cluster B

  Yes, VCD support certainly take the resources of multiple clusters. To be more specific model allocation is deciding factor we can extend on cluster or not.

  2. several server vCenter, with their own groups of ESXi.

  vCD-> A vCenter and vCenter B.  vCenter-> Cluster A1 ESXi and ESXi cluster A2.  vCenter B-> Cluster B1 ESXi and ESXi cluster B2.

  Yes, we can certainly have several VC related to VCD. To max, it supports 25 VC.

• ESXi and OpenFiler

  OK, that's more information for me...

  IM new in the area of esxi, but have used vmware workstation for years...

  I have install esxi on a dell optiplex desktop computer (for test sake)

  and installed

  Server 2003 domain controller 1 vm, dhcp, dns

  Server 2003 with Server services and Altiris deployment pxe

  I can start... a new machine virtual boot (pxe boot) network and the image of a virtual machine with XP using altiris...

  all this is good...

  now that im confused about saying are a SIN...

  I saw freenas and openfiler

  IM install openfiler now but my question is...

  1 files (say in iso format and applications installation media) are in a virtual machine session or may openfiler connect to a hard drive.

  My goal is just to take an ide drive... connect to a desktop computer and copy on a ton of media in iso format and applications...

  to connect that back to the esxi and use it as a file server...

  If im a little confused on the part...

  IM testing things that we will get our dell blades operational soon and im trying to emulate what we have in there... I just don't understand how you have a file server that can simply use drives without OS...

  confused? I'm so...

  If you install OpenFiler, it will allow you to take the space that OpenFiler can see and share on the network.  You can do it in format NAS, which means that you share space as UNIX (NFS format) network drive or network Windows (CIFS) drive.  CIFS will allow you to map as a drive of Windows machines.  What I wanted to say, it is that you won't be able to take this drive somewhere else for a different operating system and recognized her as you think.

• Want to take the certification VCP6-VTC, but I finished the 5.5 ESXi and vCenter Server 5.5

  Hello

  2 years ago I had the training for 5.5 ESXi and vCenter Server 5.5 - I wonder if that would satisfy the requirement and allows me to pass the exam VCP6-VTC?  Or should I stick with the VTC VCDP5 only?

  Have you taken after school.

  5.5 vSphere install, configure and manage.

  If so, please attend vSphere: what's new [5.5 to 6.0]

  It is a 2 day course that will allow you to take the exam VCP6-VTC.

  Otherwise, take VCP550 review and upgrade to VCP6-VTC in taking 2V0 - 621D.

• The traffic between a host ESXi and vCenter Server is secure?

  Dear team,

  You pray let me know is traffic between a host ESXi and vCenter server (vice versa) is secure?

  The VC and ESXi version is 5.1U1a

  concerning

  Mr. VMware

  Default SSL certificates are installed automatically. However, you can configure the third-party SSL certificates to make the environment more secure.

• ESXi and local RAID 1 - do not know if it works

  I have setup a RAID 1 (2 discs) on my box of ESXi. Now I loaded ESXi and registered in with the vSphere client. In "The memory", is to show both of these drives. Should it only showing a?

  

  I thought that ESXi should see 'one' in the car for me to put on.and data warehouses, then the RAID controller would just reflect. But when I try to create a data store, it allows me to opt for the second time either of these discs on first, then the other drive. Is this job right? This doesn't seem to be just if I can just add warehouses of data on each disk individually.

  which means that you are not using the controller RAID HRDWARE and using your software RAID. in esxi software RAID is not supported

  I am currently working on a site that has the integration of Paypal which includes the page redirects (confirm or cancel). My goal is to have the implementation of site with a layout for desktop, Tablet and phone. My question is when I have a redirect page should I create a separate provision of the page for each device or just a provision of office that fits all three screen sizes? I hope that if the html page has the same name of the device (query) is automatically detected. Help with the help of Adobe Muse CC

  By Payal integration, you mean paypal html button? or etc payment gateway configuration? If this is a configuration of the gateway to your site domain name then a single page with any structure will work, but if you use the button code for all associated formats then you will need to create separate pages for all.

  Thank you

• Differences Betweem ESXi and ESX

  Hai,

  I want to know the differences between ESX and ESX? where can get. If they are distinguished by the features that are available are not available.

  Thank you.

  Most of the features are available in available in ESX ESXi. In order to get the full functionality of ESXi, the host must be managed by vCenter Server.

  ESX has a console that is drastically reduced in ESXi. It is actually easier to install and easier to manage ESXi.

• Differences between ESXi and Vsphere hipervisor

  Hi guys,.

  I need to understand the difference between ESXI and Vsphere hipervisor.

  Is it correct to say that Vsphere ESX?

  Help will be very useful.

  Thank you very much

  vSphere is the range of products, including (hypervisor) ESX, vCenter (management) etc.

  In comparison, you asked "Is this correct to say that a shoe laces"?  No, not really.  One is a part of the whole.
