• Snapshots vCloud Director 5.1 & PowerCLI 5.1

  (cross-post from the vCloud forum)

  Now that 5.1 vCloud Director supports snapshots, I seek to 5.1 PowerCLI cmdlets and impossible to find a way to create/manage/return snapshots.  I see that this is in the API, but do not see a way to interface via PowerCLI.  Any ideas?

  EU are covered.

• vCloud connector - cannot copy VAPP vCloud Director to vSphere

  Evening,

  Try to copy a paralytic to vCloud Director on vCenter 5.5 5.6 using vCloud connector 2.7.

  The scenario:

  -vCloud Director fully configured with one Org, an Org vDC and a catalog.

  -The catalog is entirely filled, shared and published.

  -Org and catalog are configured to allow the publication to external organizations;

  -vCenter and vCloud Director have been added to vCloud connector via vSphere Client plug-ins;

  -vCloud plug connector is able to see the entire structures of vSphere and vCD (org records, catalogs, vApps, models, etc.).

  Reproduce the error:

  -Using the vSphere Client, click on the Org vCD;

  -Go to the tab vApps.

  -Select a VAPP off engine;

  -Click on copy.

  -Select Catalog (it is marked as shared and, curiously, unpublished);

  -Select vCenter as the target;

  -Select the clusters, folders, data store, formatting the drive and so on;

  -Power On TIME after deploying (or not, does not matter);

  -Validate (managed);

  -Finishing.

  Task starts and fails in a minute (or less) with the following message:

  "Export OVF has failed. Failure when copying data to the clouds: https://< vcloud_director_fqdn >. Reason: [0e65fbc1-4e04-4924-ae06-c4377dfc97af] there is no catalog in the organization. »

  Looks as vCloud connector, for some reason, is unable to locate the catalog during deployment (although it may be perfectly visible during the Copy Wizard and in his inventory).

  I tried searching for it and can't find anything similar to this error.

  Maybe it s a vCD configuration error, but how would be? I ve already selected all types of option to allow editing of catalogue and sharing, and nothing has changed.

  I published also successfully catalog VCDs to vCloud connector content library, so nothing else makes sense to me.

  Solved.

  Created a new catalog and IS NOT published. Used for the copy. Went well.

• Cannot add firewall rules using the REST API vShield App

  Hi all

  I get the following error

  "< errors > < error > < code > 100039 < / code > < description > Unmatched rules found in the configuration." "< / description > < / error > < / errors >.

  When you use the App API vSheild:

  Is anyone has seen this before or any idea why this might be happening?

  In addition, create a wall of fire to provide the variable "id"... How do I know which id to use to create a new firewall rule. I'm using id = "1021" I see one last created after quesrying API... but when you call it through automation, what will the process to define an id invalid?

  Thank you

  xar

  ID must be present, for the new rule Id must be '0' while that for others it should kept as what. The reason for this error which I believe is the same. Replacement of 1021 with 0 should solve this problem. http://blogs.VMware.com/security/2011/11/using-the-VShield-API.html should also be useful to start with vShield firewall App REST API.

• vCloud Director network configuration external network

  Hi all! For the configuration of external network within vCloud Director, I have a vDS configured with several groups of ports.  Each port group has a tag of vlan specific and no trunking.  My question is when I create the external network I can use the port group specific enumerated or what I need to set up a completely separate portgroup for this?  Also, if I can you my existing port groups that are specifically for each company in our environment, when I continue to configure the external network and click on finish, or if it cause a breakdown to the virtual machines currently in this group of port?  Thanks in advance for all help!

  If you use directly connect external Org network, then the existing portgroup will work.  If you use an external org routed network, then edge will be created using the portgroup you specified for the external network and creating a new portgroup for the routed network ext org portion.

• vCloud Director Networking scenario does not work

  Hello

  I'll put up a vApp to connect to a routed OrgNetwork which in turn is directly connected to an external network.  BTW - I know VAPP networks allows to let them out for now.

  On the routed OrgNetwork, I added a few addresses IP NAT - tab external IPs and created manually NAT mappings.

  When turn the VAPP I see vse deployed and everything looks good, however:

  1. I don't see the Edge vShield icon appear on the diagram of vApp

  2. the virtual machine in the VAPP doesn't get the external IP assigned the mapping created previously.

  Can someone give me directions?  The enclosed screenshots give more details.

  Points will be awarded

  -gogogo5

  That's right - also note that with the networks VAPP, the external IP address is not visible when you use a type of NAT Port Forwarding (only for the translation of the IP)

  Hello world

  I am setting up in edge gateway firewall rules in my VDC using Vcloud Director api 5.1.0.2. While the settings for a FirewallRuleType I am trying to add protocols, but I don't know what exactly should be passed to FirewallRuleTypeProtocols. There are only 2 properties in the object FirewallRuleTypeProtocols elements and ItemsElementName. Take items objects Array and ItemsElementName takes ItemsChoiceType.

  I found the answer. Here's how to set firewall type protocol rules in c# API.

  Create the object of type firewall protocols

  Protocol of var = new FirewallRuleTypeProtocols();

  Value of protocols items this value corresponds to the value of the xml element

  Protocol. Items = new Object() {true};

  The name of the element value that is the name of xml element.

  Protocol. ItemsElementName = new ItemsChoiceType [] {ItemsChoiceType.Tcp};

  Protocol Set

  firewallRuleType.Protocols = Protocol;

• Why 5.5 vcloud Director only has not the ability "add a network to an organization?

  I have deployed the ovules of Director 5.5 vcloud in my lab environment and watching videos. In the videos, the guy has deployed vcloud Director 1.5 eggs. I noticed that this homepage of vcloud Director 5.5 is not the option 'Add a network at an organization' as in vcloud Director 1.5.

  Did remove this feature in 5.5. Then I thought that it could be controlled from within the Organization after you create it, but again once I created the Organization, there is no option to add a network to this organization? I'm playing something here? How can we tolerate that they are private, the administrator of the Organization to create a network that is using a NAT or directly connected to the external network on the fly and remove it once it is not necessary. I though that it was a feature of the vcloud Director.

  I used the EGG apparatus, I have use the .bin file.

  Your help is appreciated. !!

  You EF network pool Org vDC wide (it's in properties)

  At the same time that you create a network Org inside the Org vDC going to just use the current network are entrusted to him.  Then, you make all your usual choices.  to do this, vDC display Org itself... go to list of org vDC in manage and monitor, and then double-click the VCC Org that you want to add a network.

  VAPP networks work exactly the same, create you them at the time the vApp is created.  This will use the network pool that is currently assigned to the Org vDC when the TIME Gets deployed.

  Overall, the function at the level of the consumer (org users) is the same, the process-level administration system has changed a bit.

• vCloud Director 1.5.1: no IP extends in the firewall

  I just updated my 1.5.0 to 1.5.1 environment because I wanted the following functionality:

  http://www.VMware.com/support/VCD/doc/rel_notes_vcloud_director_151.html

  Firewall rules can be configured with IP addresses and ports beaches beaches CIDR blocks
  vCloud Director 1.5.1 allows you to enter the IP address for the source and destination ranges and CIDR blocks when creating firewall rules using the UI or the REST API. In addition, you can enter ranges of ports for the source and destination ports using the interface user (but not the REST API). If you create a firewall rule that includes ranges of ports using the user interface, you will not be able to question the rule using the REST API.

  After the update but nothing changed when I choose "Set up services"-> firewall.

  I can only configure unique IP addresses and not of IP ranges.

  Can anyone confirm that nothing has changed, or maybe it only works with the new facilities?

  It should work, here is a screenshot of example that shows some examples.

  I just tested with the range and CIDR notation. What message do you get?

• quick way to add multiple subnets of Server 2008 firewall rules?

  I set up a firewall in windows server 2008.  I need to add several subnets to a rule for inbound traffic, but it is making me add subnets one at a time.  Is it possible to add several subnets simultaneously?  I tried separating them by commas and add them via the GUI, but he wouldn't take it (he said that specify an address valid).  Also if you have already entered a long list of subnets in a firewall rule is it possible to copy it to another firewall rule?

  Hi Goatberg,

  Your question of Windows Server 2008 is more complex than what is typically covered in the Microsoft Answers forums. It is better suited for the IT Pro TechNet public. Please post your question in the Technet Forum. You can follow the link to your question:

• How can I add a rule of outgoing traffic in the Windows Firewall for Windows Update?

  How can I add a rule of outgoing traffic in ICF for Windows Update?

  Please do not ask me to change the firewall policy. My default policy for outbound connections is 'block '. Many programs to connect to internet without attention users and consumes bandwidth so I limited firewall to block strategy, but the Microsoft Update or the Windows update service is not running.

  Please suggest the creation of a rule of outgoing traffic in "Windows Firewall with advanced security" to allow Windows Update.

  This is not a third-party firewall program.

  This is a duplicate of http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/w/fw/7f9c04c1-5216-47d9-9de3-64cc19eb796d with an additional constraint of the firewall rule creation. My version was not on a list of exceptions. "Windows Firewall ships with this version of Windows and should already include these sites in the exceptions list.

  'AA '.

  Not a duplicate of the 2012 wire that was bound to win 7 and you are running 8.1 firewall should already have an update exception.  If it does not please a snip of the outbound rules in your next post.

• What is the smallest model of VAPP available that can be used with vCloud Director?

  Hi all

  I was on the hunt to find the smallest operating system which can be used for demonstration purposes.

  I want to be able to quickly create vApps so a small footprint would be ideal.

  What guys do you use?

  I found this customization for operating system support invited into vCloud Director 5.5 (2058524) | VMware KB

  I always look for a 'micro' distribution that supports customization of comments.

  What is the smallest available?

• Nested VApps in vcloud Director

  Is it possible to create the vapps nested within vcloud Director?

  Nesting vapps won't happen in vCD.  They will be parallel vApps.  Is not stop you from writing a tool/site Web automation, which would show you have there.

  vRA will address finally that, but they do not use vApps.  all virtual machines just became machines to manage without the concept of being part of a paralytic.  It will be that you have a plan of several computers that uses two other plans several computers (a DB level on the application layer).

• Issue of SDRS to vCloud Director after you add the new data store to the Cluster of DTS

  Hi people,

  We use vCloud Director 5.5 in a vSphere full 5.5 environment.

  We have several DTS Cluster in vSphere and connected to vCloud Director.

  Following problem.

  When I add a data store to a Cluster of DTS and connect this to the corresponding storage profile data store, the storage profile is not available to vCloud Director more.

  After removing the new store data in the cluster of DTS, the profile becomes available again.

  Any ideas?

  Concerning

  Jean

  How did you the storage profile associated with the data store?  via c# client or vSphere web client?

  If you did the wrong way (c#) there no storage class label appropriate against it.

  A data cluster store has the storage class who would have all preparations of data contained inside.

  I think that you should check the service class is associated properly in vSphere web client (before adding to the DS Cluster).  Once it displays correctly, and then add the data store to the cluster.
