Adding storage to esx. Problems with VCB proxy

• Problem with VCB does not

  Hello-

  I using VCB 1.5 update 2 to make backups of a few virtual machines and until I upgraded my hosts 4.1 update 1 (8.3.7 build 381511) and eventually my VM to the new VM tools things worked well.  All my VMs running Windows 2008 R2.

  Once I have updated to the latest VMTools, I started getting the "error: cannot open the disk: NBD_ERR_GENERIC" error.  Research on it points to disable "disc. EnableUUID', which does not, but its my understanding is that disables application Quiesce, I need because of servers running a database.

  As I troubleshoot-made the question, I found if I rolled back the version of VMTools back to the latest version of the 4.0 tools (4.0.0 build 398348), VCB starts to work again with 'the drive. EnableUUID' set to True when running on the host computer 4.1 (just shouted at me that my version of the tools is outdated).

  Are there other work autour, I have not yet found this or I'm stuck running the old version of VMTools until a later version to test?

  Thank you!

  Support for VCB will disappear in favor of the storage API. Rather than wait to see if there is a difficulty, I would start by looking at another way to save. Many backup products have added support to use the API. If you have a license for this I also glanced at the VDR unit. http://VMware.com/go/data-recovery

• problem with VCB virtual machine identified by < unset > is unknown

  Hello

  I have three ESX 3.5 in a cluster with an EVA SAN. When I do my backup, I get this message for some of my virtual machines. The majority of my backup work well...

  PrepareForBackup() could not prepare TermServer for backup, returned the error 16

  The virtual machine identified by & lt; unset & gt; is unknown.

  Exit code: 16

  Pre order is: "C:\Program VMware Consolidated Backup Framework\backupexec\Green-pre-backup.bat" green-Termserver TermServer - fullVM

  In Virtual Center, the name of the virtual computer is TermServer, the folder on my SAN is TermServer and all files, named according to the name of vm, have 'TermServer' in their name.

  Any idea?

  Hello

  I think that you have a DNS problem, you use - ipaddr in config. file for VCB?

  Try ping TermServer, you can resolve the name?

• ESX - problems with snapshots

  Hello

  Recently, we have som issues with our 4 ESX. We have solved the main question which is how to recover the esxconsole.vmdk. We used this KB: http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1012874http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1012874 and http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1002511.

  However we start the couldn t of virtual machines. I solved this problem by using the KB1002511 (sea above). Now it starts up fine however it starts like it where 13 December 2011, that was before I did the first snapshot.

  In my datastore1 I have these files to my VM Wiki:

  The virtual machine is a Wiki (MediaWiki), using Centos 5, 64-bit version.

  Please help me.

  Kind regards

  It seems that you have lost the file descriptor for snapshots and attached the basic disk to the virtual machine, which caused the "loss" of the current data. Because you have turned on on the virtual machine with the base attached disk, there could be a corruption of data in the file system, even though I think it should be minor because of the size of the snapshot. I created a set of files based on the timestamp of the hard file that needs repair instant chain and run the virtual machine snapshot 4.

  Please follow these steps:

  1. power off the virtual machine (in fact, I hope that it is always off)
  2. remove the virtual machine from the inventory (right-click the virtual machine)
  3. Download the files from the .zip file attached to the file of the virtual machine on the data store
  4. Add the virtual machine to inventory (right-click the .vmx file)
  5. create a new snapshot!
  6. Turn on the virtual machine

• Presentation of ID host ESX host LUN to the VCB Proxy Server

  I have a typical scenario where I have 3 ESX servers with 3 x 800 GB LUNS in a storage group separate on a CX 310 SAN box. The host LUN., of these 3 LUN Ids are 0, 1 and 2.

  I have a specific host that starts from SAN, from the same box of CX 310 SAN. At this point of time, I have no choice to use this server as a Server Proxy VCB. As far as my knowledge goes, LUNS of the ESX servers must be made visible to VCB Proxy Server, as they are presented to the ESX servers.

  My question here is, as the designated Proxy VCB server is booting from the SAN, he already has a host LUN 0 to Id the logic unit number this is the start of. The Id to host ONE of the first 800 GB LUN in the ESX Server storage group is also Host Id 0. Now, if I try to make the LUNS in storage group visible on the VCB Proxy Server ESX, is there not a shock of the VCB Proxy 0 host Id and Id host ESX Lun 0? I'm confused, I don't have a test envirinment where I could try this before I could actually go forward with any solution.

  My intention is to perform a backup outside LAN of the VMDK.

  Any help is that this respect is very much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

  (1) Yes, you can have different host for VCB then for your ESX host LUN ID

  (2) Yes, you can use the identifiers of naa, it will automatically use the identifiers of naa, no need to configure anything at all.

• Problems with Windows Live Messenger, Windows Media Player and Internet Explorer proxy servers...

  I recently had problems with the above programs and their connection to the internet. I did not quite understand what was going on until I tried to connect to Windows Live Messenger a day and it wouldn't let me not connect due to a problem with the proxy server and important ports... And since then, I was not able to browse the web with Internet Explorer, download Windows Live, nor access the music store online for Windows Media player. Can someone help me with this problem?

  J2BJosh,

  It is important that you try some of the solutions provided Karena so that we can continue to resolve the problem.
  Here are some important steps to try I think solve the problem:

  Add-ons add functionality (for example, extra toolbars, animated, stock and pop-up blockers mouse pointers) to your web browser. While Add-ons can enhance your online experience, they can sometimes interfere or conflict with other software on your computer. Try to start Internet Explorer without Add-ons to see if the problem goes away. Here's how:

  • Click the button start , click principally made programs, accessories, click System Tools and then click Internet Explorer (No Add-ons).

  If disabling all add-ons solves the problem, you can manage add-ons to disable all add-ons and then put modules only as needed. This will allow you to figure out which add-on is causing the problem.

  Open Manage Add-ons

  1. Open Internet Explorer by clicking on the button start . In the search box, typeInternet Explorer, then, in the list of results, click on Internet Explorer.

  2. Click on tools and then click on Manage Add-ons.

  If disabling modules does not resolve the problem, try resetting Internet Explorer to its default settings. This removes all changes that have been made to Internet Explorer since it was installed, but it does not delete your Favorites or flows.

  1. Close the Windows Internet Explorer or Windows Explorer.

  2. Open Internet Explorer by clicking on the button start . In the search box, typeInternet Explorer, then, in the list of results, click on Internet Explorer.

  3. Click Tools and then click Internet Options.

  4. Click on the Advanced tab, and then click Reset.

  5. In the reset Internet Explorer settings dialog, click Reset.

  6. When you are finished, click Close, and then click OK.

  7. Close Internet Explorer and reopen it before the changes take effect.

  Hope that helps!

• Problem with adding new storage to the CDV provider profile

  Hi all

  I have problem with adding new storage to the CDV provider profile.

  vCenter 5.5

  VCDDB - SQL

  I created the environment with two profiles of storage for the first time and it's work well (the storage profile created before I joined the vCenter on the VCD)

  I created tags and he attributed to the data store and I see the new VM storage through the vSphere web client policy.

  I can also see VMS on the VCDDB the dbo.storage_profile_inv the new storage policy table and when I create new provider TDC I can't.

  What I'm trying:

  1 Refresh the storage via the VCD (right click on the attached vCenter) profile

  2. restart the inventory and the profile based on the vCenter servers

  3. restart the VCD and vCenter servers

  Help, please

  You can just follow KB 2075366.

• ESX server with 2 different storage array?

  Hello.

  I currently have my ESX servers connected to storage DS4700 and most berries.  Each ESX is double path via a switch which, in turn, allows me to see my DS4700.  My question is, can I i the area my ESX Server so that it can "see" my DS8300 and I would be able to assign LUNS of my ESX servers with no problems?  Both can coexist?  I think I should use for my DS4700 host bus adapters and host bus adapters that are dedicated to my DS8300?  A UNIX point, these 2 storage arrays do not 'communicate' the same way (for example, SDD and RDAC).

  Thank you.

  Steph

  SDD driver is for the multipath. VMware has its own multi-channel driver that is shipped with ESX server, you won't not any 3rd party multipathing software.

  In any case to be abel to see camps Bay you have no need to activate the software multpathing. It is intended only to provide a redundant path to any logical unit number hosted by a single table through several MS SPs/Ports.

  Area just for DS8300 ESX Server and a new analysis should see the new targets and when you present LUNS to your host definetion analyze again another you should see the DS8300 LUN.

  I hope this helps.

• Actually an ESX cluster with different times may have problems?

  Hello

  Recently, I hired a company to install a cluster EXES 3.5.

  After leaving, I discovered that the two machines, ESX1 and ESX2 have hours different (about 12 hours difference). The company said that it is impossible that the two machines have the same time, because I don't have a time server on the LAN.

  I am facing many problems with the cluster.

  Some of the machine should ocupy 100 GB and 200 GB are using (I have no pictures of this machines)

  When my VM SAP jumps from ESX1 to ESX2 services down

  The VCB does not detect the majority of virtual machines and I can't see them on BE 12

  The problem of cluster could be related?

  Thanks in advance,

  Luis Estevens

  You really do need get guests in sync. As has already been noted SAP (or any database system) will not be as if all of a sudden she is 12 hours in the future or the past.

  If you do not have an internal time server (there are a couple of freeware NTP servers that run on Windows) you can use an external time source. I use pool.ntp.org (http://www.pool.ntp.org/en/use.html) it is a great service they have around l 'Robing' between the time sources. For this he both ESX hosts should be able to make outbound connections to port 123 (NTP) UDP.

• Problem with Mail storage on the iPhone 6.

  OK, I have a problem with my mail. That is, it uses 1.2 GB of data. I cleaned all my emails and deleted all the big files. Nothing has changed. So I deleted all e-mail accounts. Still no change. When I plug my phone in iTunes, it says there 2.49 GB free yet my phone says I only have 337 MB of free space. Yes, I tried to sync and see if that has nothing and he did not. No idea what continues?

  Try to reset your email account in this order.

  First close your Mail application completely from the window of the selector app by double clicking the Home button and drag the email preview pane up until it disappears from the display. Then go to settings > Mail, Contacts, calendar > find your e-mail provider and click on the account. On the next page, delete the account. Then perform a forced reboot. Hold down the home and Sleep/Wake buttons simultaneously for about 15-20 seconds , until the Apple logo appears. Then go to settings > mail... and to add the account.

  iTunes and iPhone storage almost never fit. The amount of iTunes is an estimate, the phone is the exact amount.

  Different amounts of 'Available' reported by iPhone and iTunes

  If the above is not enough, you may need to do a system restore. First save your device via iTunes. Also import your photos on your computer and copy all the important data. Reconstruction of the support first test and test. If this does not help, you may need to restore as a new and reconfigure from scratch as the backup may be damaged. It is important to have your photos and your saved data separately from the backup. Here are the steps for a restoration:

• problem with storage space - iPhone 4 - 32 GB

  Hello, I have an iphone 4 32 gb. I'm having a problem with storage space. A few days ago, that even though I was taking 5 GB of empty space, a notification appeared that storage is almost full. I deleted about 2 GB of photos and videos. He showed me 2 GB of free space, but after 1 hour again the same notification appeared. As soon as I have emptied my space with about 1 to 2 GB by deleting photos or videos, it is completed with other data.

  How should I solve this problem?

  Thank you.

  What is the exact wording of the message? Could he be referring to iCloud storage?

  Also have you withdrawn your recently delete pictures and videos? Deleted ones is 'saved' for 30 days or more unless you intentionally delete/remove

  Why my iOS device I have more pictures that I can find?

  I don't know about other issues. There are always 'problems' with any upgrade. You weigh against the benefits. I know that you need more RAM. At least 4 GB, maybe more if you can. Don't forget that this system is produced at a time when most of the machines have + 8 GB RAM and when Apple said 'minimum' they really mean it.  I recently inherited a MacBook that has 2 GB of RAM and the Mavericks. When I checked the memory, the use of the system was using 1.95 GB = nothing to run applications!
