Add the VSA Cluster storage

Hi all

I read somewhere that its does not seem possible to upgrade the size of storage for the cluster of VSA in ver1.0? For example, if install us with HDD 6 and thereafter wanted to add another hard drive 2 or more to enlarge the data store, it is not possible?

It looks like the poster others updated the link to the correct article KB http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2001339

VSA 1.0 does not support add more storage to a VSA cluster after installation. You cannot add additional hard disks to the ESXi hosts and you cannot add multiple members of the cluster VSA. Make sure that your VSA cluster has enough storage to meet your needs of environment before you install the cluster VSA.

To increase the capacity of its VSA 1.0, you must re-create the cluster.

  • Cannot create the VSA cluster: Cluster subnet is invalid. Should not be "network address".

    Hello world!  I had two questions on a configuration current VSA that I'm doing for a client.  Installation of urban contaminated sites brownfield version 5.1.1 = Live, running Virtual machines.     Have everything configured, I'm facing 2 problems that may be a common issue throughout the community.

    1. in the configuration of the cluster initial when you are ready to configure the drives of VSA, the wipeout disc around or just what has been configured space wise. My guess is he running virtual machines on the local data store that it will not write on this part but still format how much disk space has been used.

    2. I received, during the vsa cluster configuration, the error message:

    Cannot create the VSA cluster: Cluster 192.168.12.0 subnet is invalid. Must not be 192.168.12.0

    Now, I saw the article on what it could probably be.  The gateway appears and is correct.  The problem is that I know that the default gateway is not the ping requests.  I corrected it but have not begun installation because of the question #1 above.  Since the gateway is now who responded, what would be the possible resolution.  Thanks in advance to all those who support!

    Hey Nate,

    You're right about the behavior of the cluster wizard.  It does not consume space and leave the space used by the existing virtual machines.  Once that adjust you network settings (an adresse.0 may be the entry door?)  You should be able to proceed with the creation of cluster.

  • Add the host Cluster in the Cluster data store

    How can I add host/HostCluster in the Cluster data store after the cluster data store is created. I know that we can add at this time, when you create the cluster data store, but how can we add it as soon as it is created?

    I think that as long as the new host has access to all the LUNS that comprise data warehouses in the cluster data store, then no further action is necessary.

    Make sure just that if using CF then zoning is configured correctly and the LUNS are not hidden from the new host.

    Also, make sure you restart the analysis for new data warehouses on your new host so that it can detect data warehouses

  • VSA 5.5: Storage increase VSA Cluster fails

    Hi all

    I'm new with VMware Virtual Storage Appliance 5.5.

    I installed a Cluster environment only 2 knots with two HP DL 380 Gen 8 with 3 TB of Local storage.

    ESXi hosts are in Version 5.5 and newly installed.

    After the Installation of the two ESXi hosts, I installed the VCenter 5.5 on the Local storage on servers.

    After successful installation and configuration of the new VCenter, I installed the VSA-Manager on the VCenter and perform a brownfield industrial-Installation of the VSA Cluster.

    This works all that very well and once the configuration is successful I migrating the VCenter to the local database of one of the among databases VSA ESXi host.

    Now, I want to increase the storage capacity of Cluster VSA with available space of the database local after the migration of VCenter.

    I now get the following error message:

    ATTENTION: Extension VMDK on VSA - 0 and waited 1 200 seconds for storage to online entities. Please stop i/o to data AUV for the increase in storage warehouses continue

    I'm not able to stop the action of the increased storage capacity.

    Can someone help me with this problem?

    Hello

    first: sorry for the late reply.

    Yes, the solution solves the VMware Support.

    Of more the Strorage stopped working, because the jobed wrote the journal in the database and does not illuminate.

    The cancelled Suppprt EIB job remove the log of the database.

    I moved the VCenter in another data store (QNAP), which should initially be used for backups of Veeam.

    After moving it in another data store, the work of increasing the data store has worked well.

  • 5.1 VSA running vCenter and VSA cluster service

    I read that you can run in 5.1 VSA vCenter who is also true on the VSA cluster service?

    It seems that you can accomplish # 2 more easily.  You can simply

    1. Stop server old VCS
    2. Install the VCS on the new host application (without first adding the old address of VCS)
    3. Run "Reconfigure the network" in the VSA Manager, change address VCS to the host of the new address.
  • Add the host to the cluster vmware and SAN equilogic

    Hello...

    I will add 2 new for our cluster vmware vsphere host... I have not done this before, but think that I got the hang of it...

    But one thing that I am uncertain the San connectivity, is it just to create the map of iscsi on the vsphere host software and then add the adapters iqn name to access the San volumes page and rescan for the accessible volumes in the vmware host?

    That's about all.   Reported Tech on how to do so expressly.

    TR1091 shows how to configure VMware ESXi for best practices with storage EQL.

    en.Community.Dell.com/.../Download

    In my environment I use CHAP credentials for clusters of ESXi.  In this way a specific set of ESXi nodes use the CHAP username/password to access EQL volumes.  Advantage is when you add a new node, you only need to provide the name of user and password c.  You will not have to change anything on the side of EQL to add/remove a node.

  • Cannot add the NFS share to store Cluster data

    Hello

    I have this scenario:

    Server - FREENAS with NFS share

    -cluster with 2 guests

    I added the NFS datastore successfully to each host in the cluster. The problem is when I try to add the NFS Datastore for the Cluster data store, I get the error: a specified poarameter was not correct. datastore.info.type.

    Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Datastore1 and datastore2 data warehouses are data warehouses local? If so, you must remove these storages of data added before the NFS datatore to the cluster, first cause a cluster cannot be VMFS and NFS on the same cluster and second cause without making sense have warehouses of local data within a cluster data store.

  • Add new host esxi 5.1 for the existing cluster of vcenter

    Hello

    I would like to add a new host Virgin esxi 5.1 to an existing cluster from the vcenter. What are the things that I have to preconfigure on the host before add you it? I configured the network already, storage will be implemented when I add it to the cluster, right?

    So, what I ended up doing was just set up time, networking and dns. I then added the host while he was in maintenance mode. I have a Compellent SAN storage and im using a folder in compellent to map all my Lun, then I can just add a new host in this folder, and it will automatically map all volumes to the newly added host once I go into vmware and make a new analysis on the FC HBA host (do FC fabric SW zoning first of course). I then added a file .locker on one of my SAN LUNS scrach location/newspapers. She's.

  • 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.

    Hello

    If the files on disc with voting rights are in a disk group, know that groups of disks with files Oracle Clusterware (OCR and voting disk files) have a more minimal number of failure than other groups of disks.
    If you create a group of records as part of the installation in order to install the OCR and files on the drive to vote, then the installation program requires that you create these files on a disk group with at least 2 GB of free space.

    A lack of quorum group is a special type of the failure group and these groups of failed disks contain no user data. A group of lack of quorum is not considered when determining the requirements of the redundancy for storage of user data. However, a lack of quorum group account when mounting a disk group.

    For the Oracle Clusterware installation, you must also add the additional disk space for Oracle ASM metadata. You can use the following formula to calculate the disk space required (in MB) for the OCR and voting disk files and metadata from Oracle ASM:

    total = [2 * ausize * discs] + [redundancy * (ausize * (nodes * (+ 1) + 30 clients) + (64 * nodes) + 533)]

    Where:

    redundancy = number of mirrors: external = 1, normal = 2, high = 3.

    ausize = size in megabytes metadata.

    nodes = number of cluster nodes.

    clients - the number of instances of database for each node.

    drives - number of disks in the disk group.

    See the link below for more details...

    http://download.Oracle.com/docs/CD/E11882_01/install.112/e17212/storage.htm#CDEDEEAH

  • Add the MD3000 storage

    Okay, I have spent some time looking around for a guide on how to add records to our SAN and can't really find anything definitive.

    We currently have a 10 RAID 5 SAN drive connected on 2 servers Dell PE in a Windows failover cluster. We have 1 disk group containing 2 virtual disks (1 for the Cluster Quorum) and the other that contains virtual servers. We are almost out of space and I bought 5 x new disks to add to the San. So I guess I have a few questions;

    1. can I I physically install all the disks at the same time? Can I live?

    2. the command Add free capacity (physical disks) said 'You can use this free capacity to create more virtual disks in the disk group' however I want to extend the disc virtaul stored on my hard drive of the virtual. Is this possible? And can it be done live?

    3. someone a guide? The manual of user Dell for the MD3000 is not too descriptive.

    Thanks for this great info. Can I add the free space on the virtual disk online?

  • Add the cluster to an existing table in oracle

    Is it possible to add the cluster of an existing table? For example...

    I have a table:

    t_id number PRIMARY KEY,

    t_name varchar2 (50));

    Cluster:

    CLUSTER to CREATE my_cluster

    (c_id NUMBER) SIZE 100;

    Y at - it a command such as: ALTER TABLE t_name add CLUSTER my_cluster (t_id); or something like that?

    Because I want to table to look like this:

    CREATE TABLE table_name)

    t_id number PRIMARY KEY,

    t_name varchar2 (50))

    My_cluster (t_id) CLUSTER;

    And drop all the tables isn't really what I want to do.

    Thank you

    No,

    It is the reverse:

    A table can be stored as a segment of memory (the common way) or in a cluster.

    Will not be part of the table "in the cluster", but other parts outside.

    Please create a new table in the cluster and insert your data here.
