• Server Proxy VCB does need a dedicated Volume?

  Hello

  Server Proxy VCB must a LUN or a Volume dedicated to save snapshots or these snapshots are housed in the volume source VMFS iteself?

  Jaikrit Negi

  (VCP, BCCFP, ASFS)

  Hello

  To clarify - when using VCB, the first thing that is done is to create a snapshot of the virtual machine. This snapshot will be created when the virtual machine is (VMFS etc.) default.

  After that (in the case of a full backup), the VCB proxy will copy the entire virtual disk (*-flat.vmdk) storage that resides on the VCB proxy server. Then a 3rd third party tool can empty these files (tape, VTL etc.).

  So yes, the snapshot is created on VMFS. The virtual disk itself is temporarily stored on a drive connected to the VCB proxy (as much as you put the mount point). So don't forget your VCB proxy needs to have at least enough free disk space to facilitate your largest virtual disk to back up!

  When you use a file-level mount, excessive disk space on the proxy is not necessary; then you have really a 'view' in the virtual disk.

  Virtual disk writes are temporarily stored in the snapshot on VMFS file. After the VCB backup, you (or the 3rd party software backup) disassemble the medium and the snapshot is deleted. Beware, VCB has a tendency to 'forget' to remove the snapshot sometimes!

• Failed to create the Conference on virtual server of telepresence

  Hi all

  I installed Virtual Server of telepresence and injected the LIC-AES-VTS-PMP-K9, LIC-VTS-PMP-INTOP, LIC-VTS-PMP-K9-LIC-VTS-PMPUWL-1SL. I wonder why I can't create the conference room. When I access the Conference menu, there is no button to create the Conference.

  Thank you.

  With virtual Server of telepresence that you will not be able to manage or create conferences directly on the server TP, you must use the conductor to create and set up conferences.  The virtual server TP is identical to the pluralistic media 310/320, to see how the virtual model differs from other models TP server, they are listed in the Cisco_TelePresence_Server_on_Virtual_Machine_Release_Notes_3-1 xbottom of pg 2.

  To learn more about the managed mode remote TelePresence Sever in use with the conductor, you can learn more on this subject in the Cisco_Telepresence_Server_Release_Notes_3-0_2-48, pg 2.

• Can I create a static IP address for my virtual server when my physical network only has a dynamic IP address?

  Hi all!

  About, what I'm trying to do is to create an entire virtual network. I'm working on and studying for my MCSE and wanted to create a virtual server and a few virtual desktops.

  I wanted to put up a few roles on the server which (sort of) requires me to have a static IP address. My question is can I create something like a "static IP address make fun" to do?

  I prefer not to pay the additional sum of $ my ISP for a static IP address if I have to. Other than this virtualization project, I don't need a static IP address.

  Thank you!

  Create and internal network, then NAT so they can talk to the internet.

• Creating a virtual server connected to the outside world

  I currently have a server running on a fedora 12 VM Workstation VM. I want to access the server from outside of the virtual machine, but for a reason, even not the host computer will have access to the virtual server. Is it possible to route the network cards so that when someone outside the VM workstation tries to access the server VM, they can just go directly on the server instead of getting blocked by network adapters?

  Set up networks bridged and point it at your card of ethernet connected to the internet. If you have a router with NAT (like 99.9% of office configurations), you will need to forward individual ports if you want to be exposed to the public internet. If you are happy to expose it only within your local network, you don't have to redirect ports.

  Using network bridge, the virtual machine has its own IP address, whether on the public internet (in the case of no NAT) or on your local network (in the case of NAT). The scope of the IP address assigned is exactly her same as that assigned to the host computer - so if the host has an Internet IP, you need to configure one, or to have assigned via a DHCP server for your virtual machine as well. OTOH, if your host is behind a NAT, it probably has a DHCP server that puts an IP address in the range of 192.168.x.x for your virtual machine, automatically.

• VCB San invited via the Lan

  Probally a stupid question, but here is the senario.

  I have a small San with 2 attached ESX 3.5 servers, there is no room for more servers on the San.

  I would have 1 virtual server as the VCB server and save the rest of the guests through this server. While I would use backup agent to write to tape.

  Everything I read says that you must have a physical box to use VCB with a SAN.

  Could I not configure VCB virtual server to use the NDB (backup Lan)?, I would back up the Vmware customers who are on the SAN.  I would create just the virtual VCB with enough disk space to process the image.

  You can be better used added to warm mode instead of the NBD method. It will give more efficient backups and not put to the test the COS. It is my first recommendation whenever I can not configure mode SAN.

• Creating virtual machine with existing data

  Hi all

  I have virtualized my almost all servers except the one and only one file server.  I'm under vsphere 4 with 2 ESXi hosts and a 2000 Eternus model 100 SAN and using Veeam 6 B & R

  Current configuration

  Physical server with 2 network cards

  1 NETWORK LAN card

  1 SAN NETWORK card using MS iSCSI initiator

  Windows 2003

  There are 2 volumes on my SAN which is connected via the MS iSCSI initiator containing the data for the file server.  Server file sharing (NTFS) files stored on the San, and they have a lot of NTFS permissions on files and folders (approximately 1.5 TB of data).

  Ideal configuration

  1 virtual server

  1 vNIC to LAN

  2 volumes of SAN share via the server

  Windows 2008 r2

  My question

  Can I just add volumes to vsphere, create a virtual machine, add the two volumes of the virtual machine as 2 hard drives, the actions of installation and do with it?  I wonder where the permissions are checked and if these measures can be made without wiping the volumes.  I don't have another 1.5 TB of free space on the SAN.  I have a Netgear NAS I use as a target for backup if necessary but I prefer not to have to move the data if it is not needed.

  I hope that I have covered all my bases to make this easy to understand situation and we hope to meet .

  Thank you

  Welcome to the community - Yes, you would be able to present the NTFS on the computer virtual hosted on your server using a RDM (Raw Device Mapping). Permissions on NTFS volumes are stored in the NTFS file system-

• NSX API to modify a virtual server Loadbalancer

  Hello.

  I use NSX API to add load balancer pools and to redirect the connections using application rules.

  LB is a virtual server. Based on the State of the application, it will redirect to different pools.

  I am able to use the API to add pools, rules of application.

  But I can't find any API to change the virtual server to add the rule to it.

  Ideally should be a POST operation on https://nsxmgr/4.0/edges/ {id} / loadbalancer/config/virtualservers / {Vside}

  But it is not there in the NSX 6.1 API guide. And when I tried to do a POST, a 405 error (POST not supported).

  Any help on how to change a virtual server LB via API is much appreciated.

  
  

  Thank you

  Editing objects are with the HTTP method 'PUT '.

  Are creating objects with the HTTP 'POST' method

  I understand that you try to change an existing VIP, then you should try with the HTTP method 'PUT '.

  Can try again you?

  If you still face the question, can you send the exact URL + the payload that you send.

• How to prevent limited users to create virtual machines?

  Hi all;

  Is it possible to prevent standard users to create Virtual Machines in Microsoft Windows environment?

  Thank you

  Here's the problem I see... as long as the user has the ability to run VMware Workstation, you can't stop creating a VM since everything it takes, it's a TextEditor and a live ISO Image and the other can create a configuration manually, .vmx file that it points to the ISO Image and then double click on the manually created configuration .vmx file and its place and running.  Of course not all users would go to the trouble to create the .vmx file manually but there are scripts on the Internet that do and users have other ways too.

  If you don't have the appropriate infrastructure to control your users then monitor their activities and let them know him will be fired if they contravene the regulations.

• How to see the models VI3 on Virtual Server 4.1

  Hi all

  I'm migrating my old infrastructure VI3 (ESX3.5U5) to a new vSphere 4.1 a.

  That I create a new database on V4.1 I have to disconnect all virtual Center2.5 ESX3.5 to connect tp Virtual Server 4.1.

  I have a lot of templates on each ESX3.5 but when I reconnect the ESX3.5 to the Virtual Server 4.1 I don't see all of my models.

  Any idea?

  TKS for your help.

  If you browse data warehouses using the browser to store data, you should find all your models here.  Once locate you them, right click on the .vmtx file and "add to the inventory.

  For an overview of all models 'zombie', you can use RVTools (tab Vsante)

• Running MS Virtual Server 2005 on XP Guest OS ESXi 4.1

  I'm trying to run some microsoft Server 2008 training VM lab files that were designed to run on Windows XP and Microsoft Virtual Server 2005 R2.

  The specs of my computer Dell Precision 490 are as below:

  -8 GB DDR2 RAM

  -2 x 80 GB 10 000 RPM hard drives

  -2 x E5160 Xeon 3 GHz processor

  -VT turned on in the BIOS

  I installed ESXi 4.1 U1 for Dell computers and the installation was successful.  Then I downloaded the vSphere Client and proceeded to create a client Windows XP SP3 OS with 3 GB of RAM and 2 carrots.  The prompt of Windows XP works perfectly well.  So I installed .NET framework and MS Virtual Server 2005 R2 Enterprise on the computer.

  Then I configure microsoft VM Labs.  The MS VM charger starts very well. However, when I start up a virtual computer in Virtual Server, it takes a long time for her to POST and see after the POST to BIOS screen just blanks out eventually and I waited 1/2 hour and never completed startup.

  My question is if ESXi 4.1 supports another product of the virtual machine running in a guest OS?  Is there any configuration change, that I need to do to get this Setup working?

  I also tried to do the same thing on XenServer 5.6 SP2 and it freezes completely the guest operating system XP when I start up a virtual computer in Virtual Server 2005.  I also tried these files before on a portable Windows XP x 86 with Core2Duo T7100 and 3 GB of RAM DDR-667 with VT turned on in the BIOS, loaded fine laboratories and the performance was reasonable.

  Thanks for any help.

  To run nested virtual machines, you must configure the external VM to use hardware-assisted virtualization.  The execution mode by default for 32-bit Windows XP on some platforms is binary translation.  Please change the execution mode privileged for your guests 'VT - x or AMD - V' XP 'VT-x/EPT or AMD-V/IVR,"depending on your platform.  See also VMs of nested running.

• Advantages/disadvantages of moving data to a virtual server Vcenter

  What are the advantages/disadvantages of the passage of our database of Vcenter 2.5 on the physical server to our virtual server to SQL 2005?

  Thank you

  the only con I can think of is that your VCDB breaks down, the fact vCenter.  However, as a virtual machine running your VCDB isn't a bad thing.  After all, you can take advantage of the DRS/HA.  One thing I would do is create a rule of DRS, if you run vCenter as a virtual machine, to keep the VCDB and vCenter VM together but also to set a priority of restarting at the top for two virtual machines.

  .. .and of course make sure that you back up your VCDB and perform adequate maintenance

• Is - this convert a virtual server change anything on the original physical server boot disk?

  I then ran the vCenter Converter Standalone and looked at the log roll window on it's finally a few steps.  One of the journal entries said something about changing the structure of the boot (wrong wording), but I wasn't sure if that was the physical disk I just cloned, or is that the virtual server drive just created?  I'm afraid to restart this server in case he just changed the server startup disk and it's 45 minutes in a remote site...  Is - that nothing get changed during execution of the program of conversion?  It really "convert" all about this new virtual disk and now my server won't boot from a physical disk or what?

  Thank you

  Welcome to the Forums - No. you will always be able to start the Dungeon of the physical in mind machine if you have not customized the new virtual machine and it works you can end up with conflicts on your network-

• VMware Converter 4.0 and Virtual Server 2005 R2 VM

  I downloaded the new VMware Converter (Version 4.0.0) because he had promised for the merger as a target.

  I have the image of Sharepoint 2007 VIrtual demonstration of Microsoft Server which works OK using Virtual Server.

  The converter seems to be a valid VMware image on the PC where I run the converter.

  I copy the VMware HD image created on my external Mac (OS X 10.5.6 Fusion 2.0.1) and merge it opens but there are questions.

  1 fusion think that the virtual machine is an 'other' OS rather than Microsoft Server 2003 Enterprise, which is what the VM from virtual server. Therefore, I can not install VMware tools on the virtual computer.

  2. If I change the type of operating system in the interface of Fusion Server 2003 Enterprise settings and that seems ok. Then, I am able to install tools in VMware Fusion.

  3. after the required reboot to complete the installation of the tools, the VM comes back BUT the mouse pointer is no longer visible. The virtual machine makes it unusable at this point.

  I remember posting on this forum awhile at the time where I realized first that the virtual server instance could be opened with a PC version of the workstation and I remember reading while the mouse pointer is a problem.

  So is there anything, I can do to get the Fusion tools installed AND have a working mouse pointer?

  Any help appreciated.

  Jim

  Yes, it is removed from the control panel and you can try on virtual machine converted however, it may not work.  As before you convert you can do anyway that you presented.  I like to make a copy and use it as I want to do some other preprocessing and then I just remove it when I'm done leaving the original intact, but whatever way works for you is fine.
