  Adding 2nd NIC (pci express gigabit) to DC7700p.  Now, it does not start. Can not pass boot F9 or F10 Setup Menu. Or the boot or installation menu is accessible.  Any ideas?

  Hello:

  The PCIe slot on a dc7700 usable only for a PCIe video card. If you want or need to add an additional NETWORK card, you need to add a PCI NIC.

• Adding 2nd NIC killed ESX Server

  All,

  Thank you for taking the time to read my post. Here are the environment and then my question.

  3 - DELL R510 - Dual Core Quad - Intel systems

  The area has "2" Integrated NIC

  as well as "2" QUAD Port - PCI Intel network interface cards

  NIC 0 - integrated NETWORK card is a system where installed- and it is plugged into a standard Switch CISCO GIG, the tag VLAN 108

  NIC 1 - integrated is configured for iSCSI connectivity

  LOCATION 0 - Port Quad PCI NIC

  Port # 3 is connected to a GROUP of CIRCUITS on a CISCO SWITCH with VLAN 108, 104, 107 and 110 on it

  Port # 1 is used for the 2nd iSCSI connection

  LOCATION 1 - Port Quad PCI NIC

  # 7 port is connected to a different GROUP of CIRCUITS on a CISCO SWITCH with VLAN 108, 104, 107 and 110 on it

  All three servers are installed with ESX4 update 1

  When I go into vCenter to one of the three servers and go to the primary Switch virtual networking, if I add #3 NIC or Port #7 NIC to the virtual switch (it currently integrated NIC 0 in) the system disconnects the network and to connect to vCenter losses and the entire network. If physically I reboot the ESX Server, it is NOT on the network. I have the tag VLAN in NIC0 defined 4095 to accept all the VLANS as well. (I tried with and without the tag of VLAN 4095 - same result)

  Here are my questions:

  1 - Why is - what happens? How it should be configured?

  2. is there a way to get NIC0 to return to the network without having to re - install ESX?

  I reinstalled the boxes several times now and tried many variations of combinations of nic, and they all end up with the ESX Server disconnected from the network and does not.

  Really looking for some common sense here... Please and thank you.

  Hmmmm, shooting a little in the dark, but I think your next 2 steps are:

  (1) get the SC (vswif0) MAC and check your MAC address table switch to fly throughout of ports

  (2) on the console, use esxcfg-vswitch for uplink associated with the Group of port SC the first list, and then delete the 2nd network card.  This should get your SC direct return and leave the new map available NETWORK the vswitch, simply not group ports SC.  (And you don't have to reinstall :-).)

• VSphere client web - Remote Console error: unable to connect to the connection of mks (name of user and password) incorrect

  Hello

  I am running vmware Fusion on my mac computer. I created a domain with 2 vm ESXI, VSPHERE client and a DC inside the merger. My mac is not inside the area, but can access the area through clearOS router which is also inside the virtual machine. my mac has IP 192.168.2.x and my management in the 10.0.0.x field segment

  When I try to access a virtual machine on my esxi from my mac, I get the error failed to connect to the connection of mks (name of user and password) incorrect. I guess it has something to do with my mac is not in the area, but no idea how I can solve this problem?

  Thank you

  solved by adding the ip address of my ESXI in my macs hosts file

• logging of errors in vsphere client with the domain credentials

  I have a 5.5 esxi host managed by 5.5 vcenter.

  I need enable a domain user to be a power user on the host, but don't have access to other hosts managed by the vcenter, so I added their domain account to the permissions tab on the host as a power user.

  I want him connect directly to the host by using the client Vsphere and Vcenter not connect at all.

  However, when he tries to connect to the host using the host name, it gets the error:

  "cannot complete the connection due to a bad user name or password"

  I added myself to the host as a power user and I get the same error

  I have added my name from AD domain host, added an entry in my DNS, more I added a domain suffix to the host.

  No change.

  I can log in as root to the host through the vsphere client.

  What Miss me in this Web of permissions?

  THX

  I had already joined the domain of the host and adding the user directly didn't work.

  I finally called in Vmware and has technical support do that too many questions.  Finally, he created a role group on the host via the Vsphere Client containing the options I needed for this user and it worked.

• ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR connecting local vsphere client on Mac OS with Chrome

  Hello

  I'm trying to follow the steps to set up the development environment and the Hello World example for vSphere Web Client Setup SDK (SDK 5.5.0). )

  The result of the measures I have Setup SpringSourceTool suite, vsphere client sdk, flex sdk, sdk toolkit for eclipse. I configured the server Installer Virgo followed by adding on the example Hello world plugin.

  Then I started the web server of Virgo and the console did not show any errors.

  But now when I try to navigate to https://localhost:9443 / vpshere-client I get an error of connection SSL (ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR error code).

  I don't see the corresponding errors in the newspapers of the Virgin. Where appropriate to the error logs could be connected? I appreciate all the comments.

  Thank you

  To install VWC on developer machine, I downloaded the serenity - client.zip.

  I also created client.properties, manually filling url information and the digital footprint

  (I don't see this post until now because it was in the 'bad' forum Client SDK)

  We have seen this error in 5.5 with the latest version of Chrome on Mac OS.  It must be linked to the SSL changes made in Chrome.  If anyone has workaround for Chrome share please!

  In the meantime, you can use Firefox or go back to an older version of Chrome.

• You cannot use vSphere client to change the settings of the virtual machine v10 or more

  Hello

  I just downloaded new version of Kali Linux to do some tests with my free version of ESXi update 5.5 2, the problem is that I can't change the settings of the virtual machine in vSphere Client.

  It's so good because of the independence of Web OS Client vSphere but what about the free version? Everyone knows you need a vCenter running successfully and a license for the vSphere Web Client.

  There is no free version of VMWare vCenter.

  Nice day.

• Multiple VCenters in one VSphere Client

  Kinda new to this but just curious, can you have multiple VCenters in a single client VSphere? Currently I have 6 VCenters I log in, I have therefore 6 vsphere client running.

  Welcome to the community.

  You can configure in bound mode. According the current scenario of you, you have already configured the vcente. If you need to add them in to a single pane view vcenter.

  Here's a nice blog that help you solve your problem.

• questions of vSphere Client Web - (noob)

  Hello! I'm not sure if this question goes here or not, if not could someone move it to the right forum? Thank you

  IM pretty new to VMWare, but have a number of hosts running ESXi 4 and 5.0, each is a separate host managed by the vSphere client. We recently received a new server and installed ESXi5.5 to findout we vSphere Web Client to manage the virtual machines. My question is can I use a web client of vSphere to monitor multiple physical hosts?

  Our facility is 4 physical hosts all versions the ESXi running, all independent - nothing fancy. We also have a San with two physical hosts in a cluster off site in another data center (a different IP address connected via WAN). This host is configured with the Id like to, at least temporarily, where I want to manage the new vSphere web ESXi5.5 Server client. Is this possible? I get errors when adding it.

  Thank you!

  You can manage everything from a single Web Client vSphere since all hosts are added to vCenter and hosts are compatible with your server vCenter... you must ensure all the required ports are open through your WAN link. To configure a new Web Client vSphere you still need a compatible version of vCenter.

• How to configure NTP between Virtual Machines without using Vsphere Client

  I have a group of 8 virtual servers of 5.5 ESXi without an Internet connection. There are virtual machines on each of these 8 virtual servers.

  I did one of these 5.5 virtual ESXi host a NTP server by editing the file /etc/ntp.conf with below configuration and

  started the ntpd daemon. He began to take the time to its local clock, here's the output of ntpq Pei

  IP server 10.108.190.14

  ip address of the client 10.108.190.15

  Server /etc/ntp.conf

  > > driftfile/var/lib/ntp/drift

  > > server 127.127.1.0 maxpoll 4

  > > fondant 127.127.1.0 stratum 10

  | ==============================================================
  | * LOCAL (0). LIUX. 10 l 2 64 377 0.000 0.000 0.001

  Then I edited the file /etc/ntp.conf on customers with below configuration but the customer would not synchronize with the server. He

  wouldn t get response from the server. Here is the output of ntpq Pei

  Customer /etc/ntp.conf

  > > driftfile/var/lib/ntp/drift

  | ntpq Pei

  |      refid distance st t when poll reach delay offset jitter

  | ==================================================================
  | 10.108.190.14 INIT. 16 u

  Now, when I configure NPT Client/Server on virtual machines through the Configuration Option under Option Configuration time

  in Vsphere Client everything works fine and the client and the server to synchronize with each other. I checked the file /etc/ntp.conf on both the client

  and the server and it has a couple of restrict 127.0.0.1 and restrict the lines added by default kod nomodify etc.

  So why NPT Server featured when enabled via Vsphere Client works very well, but it does not work when it is configured manually

  in the virtual servers directly.

  I was connected to a vCenter Server Appliance through the VSphere Client and enabled the synchronization of time of the NPT.

  I really need to know how to configure the NTP server without using the Vsphere Client so that I can automate the

  task by writing a python script that would connect to each virtual server and NTP Client/Server configuration.

  Any help in this issue deeply appreciated!

  Thank you!

  You can configure the ntp server without using viclient.

• VSpher client connection?

  Hello

  To make clear that I am a novice.

  I installed, ESX5.1 (bare metal), [VCenter Server, VSphere Client and client VSphere Web]-> Windows 2008R2.

  It is the second facility from scratch.

  In my first attempt, when all them above were installed, when I tried to log in using VSphere client, I could use the AD ID and I think what he connecterd me to ESXi through VCenter.

  In my second installation, I can connect via Vcenter using the Web client, using my username AD (ID of the administrator group). Everything works fine, I created data center and added ESXi.

  However when I click on VSphere Client, it does not accept my AD account and it only accepts the ID of the root for ESXi

  I don't know if this is what is supposed to happen?

  So the questions:

  1. in order to access ESXis using VSphere Client through VCentre, what should I do? I mentioned, that if I try to open a session using the client it does not accept AD ID

  2. How can I use webclient and no client (via VCenter)

  < added some information: I renamed localhost in ESX01 ESX and he joined the field in the context of troubleshooting and client NTP is configured on ESXi, not Windows 2008R2, but Jet lag is less than 30 seconds if not less >

  As I said I am new, however I am giving the foregoing experience of logical explanations.

  Thanks in advance.

  Welcome to the communities...

  I don't know if I understand your questions, I tried with my awakening in response to your questions

  1. in order to access ESXis using VSphere Client through VCentre, what should I do? I mentioned, that if I try to open a session using the client it does not accept AD ID

  You try to access your ESXi host or vCenter server by using AD ID?

  However when I click on VSphere Client, it does not accept my AD account and it only accepts the ID of the root for ESXi

  Have you checked that you access your vCenter and no ESXi host using vSphere Client?

  vCenter is a management software that allows to manage ESXi host. WebClient is only available to manage vCenter server and NO ESXi host

• VSphere client, cannot connect to Vmachine on ESXi5

  Hello

  I hope someone can helpme or guide me on this one.

  I already create two VMs on ESXi5 and their spouse on my domain, I can controlit from the console on esxi (via vsphere client)

  but... If I try to connect directly to the vmachine of my office via vsphere client I had a conection error

  I try with my domain user and the password

  I try with the checkbox "use the same windows credentials" and still the same...

  I thought maybe I give permmits to the vmachine directly from Esxi5, but I noticed that does not show in my area and I can't add my name of user or groups. I wonder if theres some how to join my esxi5 welcome to my domain and then can show my domain name such as an option to choose some users of group or individual userid

  (see attached)

  Thank you and have a nice day of departure (sound almost 07:00)

  You can join your ESXi your unter AD-> authentication services configuration.

  But that can only be allows you to assign permissions to allow users to connect to your server ESXi with the vSphere Client and do things over there, like create virtual machines or use its console your AD.

  To access the operating system inside the virtual machine remotely, use RDP, VNC, XDMCP, etc as a.p. said

• PowerCLI equivalent to vSphere client "Detach" memory card?

  I'm trying to find the PowerCLI equirvelent to disconnect an adapter of the ESX host storage device. Preferably using the LUN ID.

  For reference, in the vSphere client GUI I have run the command by selecting a host configuration tab, then select adapters and storage in detail looking at the peripheral view, I can right click on a device and have the ability to "unpin".

  I've been watching the cmdlets Get-ScsiLun and Set-ScsiLun.

  I have also been watching the ScsiLunPath together and wonder if Active the parameter false, that's what I'm looking for?

  I am also looking to hard drive Set and remove hard drive but these commands seem to be relevant to VM and hosts no.

  Any help or hints would be appreciated.

  This new feature in the vSphere client 5 is not taken in charge by a cmdlet PowerCLI AFAIK.

  But you can get the same result by using the DetachScsiLun method.

  2 following functions (I added a function to fix as well) will allow you to detach and attach the lun.

  I chose to spend the LUN target via its canonicalname, but you can easily adapt the functiosn to use another LUN property.

  function Detach-Disk{
      param(
          [VMware.VimAutomation.ViCore.Impl.V1.Inventory.VMHostImpl]$VMHost,
          [string]$CanonicalName    )
  
      $storSys = Get-View $VMHost.Extensiondata.ConfigManager.StorageSystem
      $lunUuid = (Get-ScsiLun -VmHost $VMHost | where {$_.CanonicalName -eq $CanonicalName}).ExtensionData.Uuid
  
      $storSys.DetachScsiLun($lunUuid)
  }
  
  function Attach-Disk{
      param(
          [VMware.VimAutomation.ViCore.Impl.V1.Inventory.VMHostImpl]$VMHost,
          [string]$CanonicalName    )
  
      $storSys = Get-View $VMHost.Extensiondata.ConfigManager.StorageSystem
      $lunUuid = (Get-ScsiLun -VmHost $VMHost | where {$_.CanonicalName -eq $CanonicalName}).ExtensionData.Uuid
  
      $storSys.AttachScsiLun($lunUuid)
  }
  

  You can call the function like this

  $esx = Get-VMHost MyEsx $name = "The-canonical-name-of-the-target-LUN"
  
  Detach-Disk -VMHost $esx -CanonicalName $name
