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

  • Update of the hardware virtual server vCenter

    How can upgrade you to version 7 on vcenter material when it is a virtual machine. I'm trying to create a baseline and sanitize the it, but it does not work immediately and tells me that I can't because it runs vcenter.

    Thank you

    Scott

    you will need to connect to the ESX host in which your vCenter VM runs on, off, then make a right click on it to upgrade virtual hardware.

    Be sure to upgrade the tools of comments first however.

  • Advantages disadvantages & RAID and how to assign Qosmio G30 speed

    Hello.

    I heard that the RAID configuration can increase or not the speed... If someone more expert can explain to me how it works?

    1.) first of all what is RAID (explain in words that an ignorant in the calculation as I can uderstand)

    (2.) what is the difference between raid 0 or raid 1 and how it affects the computer?

    (3.) what are the advantages/disadvantages to choose between this two settings?

    Hello

    I m not a guru RAID ;) but I used Qosmio G20 with and without a permit to RAID technology and I have not noticed the disadvantages of speed.

    I see that you are a beginner and so I will try to explain the RAID feature very easily ;)
    What is RAID? RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) allows to save data.

    The RAID reflected the content of the first HARD drive to the second HARD drive. This means that all the files (depending on the RAID settings) that are stored on the HDD1 is also stored on HDD2. If the HDD1 will damage, you will be able to recover everything from the HDD2 unit.

    The two s of HARD drive can be used with mirror RAID-1 or RAID-0 stripping
    When you use RAID-1, data is stored twice (once on each of the hard disks) so if there are problems with one of the hard drives, the other HARD disk can be used to retrieve the data.
    But you can use only two hard drives as a single HARD drive. (2 disks hard = 1 HDD)

    When you use RAID 0 (stripping) met by the operating system size is two times more!
    Using RAID-0 configuration, all data on both disks will be lost, even if only one of the two disks fails!

    I think that the RAID is very useful because it safes the contents of HARD drive!
    Of course, if you use the mirroring option, you can only use the a HDD available!
    But you are on the site course ;)

    I disabled the JOB BE general relativity.

    and the host where the virtual machine belong was not the right time. No Ntp server has been configured.

    I think that the problem can come from this.

  • How to access files in a folder to store data for a virtual machine?

    Hi all

    I'm relatively new to virtualization in general (I'm learning!) and have a question.  I have a host server of VMware ESXi 5.0 set in place with several VMs configured in it.  I also have various data stores configured, usually a virtual computer by the data store.  Most of the virtual machines are Windows, but one I have problems with is a machine virtual 64-bit Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 6.  I currently manage and administer the server remotely over a slow connection.  Anticipate, the last time I was on the same network as the host server, I downloaded to a folder on the same database as the VM RHEL, about 5 GB of files that I knew that I would need to access in the VM RHEL install different software.  Now, I'm trying to "expose" these files very to the RHEL VM so I can install the software.  How would I do that?

    From what I've gathered reading other posts here, I could create an ISO that contains the files and then upload that to the server on the host to be mounted into the CD player, but my connection is so slow that would take a very long time.  I also believe that I could create a network share on my Windows 7 computer and allow the virtual machine to access the files in this way - but once again, my connection is the problem (not to mention that I do not have a GUI installed on RHEL and I'm not a Linux expert).

    None of the files I need are ISOs, unfortunately, so I can not directly mount the CD-ROM drive in the virtual computer from the data store.  If I have access to a shell on the host server, it does not recognize the command vmware-mount so I can't access the virtual disk for RHEL to just copy the files into it.  Also, it does not recognize the mkisofs command (of which i google trying to figure out if I could create the ISO on the host itself).

    So, basically, I'm looking for a way to access files in a virtual machine that are in the same bank data, as its virtual disk.  If that is possible to copy these files in virtual drive somehow, or mount a CD-ROM drive or hard drive that exposes these files on the virtual computer, I don't have a preference...  I'm just trying to not have to re - download the files in a different format (or using a different method) since they are already on the host server.

    Any suggestions would be very appreciated that - thank you.

    Welcome to the community,

    one solution might be to enable SSH on the host computer and then use scp to access or download files from the host/datastore (within the Linux VM).

  • How to develop a player for the virtual server when no more space is available on the data store?

    Hello

    I have a 'vSphere4.1 - Intel"cluster with lots of available data stores.

    In this group, I have a virtual server "Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition SP2" with 7 discs, all with the ' base' type in the server disk management. ""

    One of the drives needs to be expanded, but in my VMware environment, I noticed that the data with the reader store, cannot be stretched beyond, so I need to take the free space of hard drive to another store of data with free space desired.

    Now to my question:

    Can I make a new record in my VMware environment on another data store and fix it on my Windows 2003 Server? - And if so, how do I add the new free space on the server specific hard drive?

    Kind regards

    Carl-Marius

    1. close the virtual machine in question

    2 remove the HARD disk that you want to extend

    3. in another data store make folder and move the VM HDD (vmdk) in this folder

    4. now change the settings on the virtual machine, add need HDD now this time, select "use the hard disk" option and point to the VMDK file in the other data store

    5 - turn on the virtual machine, check that every thing is okm if ok you can do the HARD disk as dynamic disk is easy to expand

    6. now incerase the VMDK from vsphere client,.

    7 now, with the help of utilities such as partition magic or acronis or utility, you can extend the player

  • the advantage of using the date dimension.

    Hi gurus,
    I have a table of facts with 5 different dates as the shipping date, the order date.
    My question is
    Case 1. in fact, table I store date_keys (substitution integers) and create several date dimensions (alas) for each type of date as a date_dimension alias for the shipping date, an alias for the date of the order etc (in the model of declaration).

    Case 2: I just avoid using the date and just store date dimension (no integers) in fact table.
    In this way I will save 5 joints in 5 dimensions of different date.
    Note: I have need of these 5 participates in the declaration of model that will be used to create reports, not in the model ETL in dimension model ETL that one date will be there, but we must create on alias the dimension date for each type of report date.

    So, I was wondering what is the advantage of using the date dimension?

    It is more a question of design/statement of a question of ETL/ODI;).

    The advantage of the dimension is that you can select or aggregate data by year, weekends, quarter, month, day of the week...
    If you only keep the date, you had all these complexes of the formula in logic or calculated items columns (assuming you are using OBIEE). Performances will be affected and the code will be duplicated in many places.

    Hope that it answers the question.

  • Get the data from a virtual computer store

    I'm looking to get the data from a virtual computer store, but format to be used with vmrun.  My current vmrun statement is:

    vmrun t CR h < IPAddress > https://: 443/SDK u & lt; username & gt; Pei & lt; password & gt; runProgramInGuest "[& lt;. datastorename & gt;] & lt; datastorefolder & gt; / & lt; virtualmachinename & gt;. VMX' c:\myscript.bat

    The idea is to replace & lt; datastorename & gt; given with the name of the LUN that is running on a virtual machine.  In this case, I'm running my statement vmrun from inside a script PowerCLI.  I can use a variables powerCLI, if the vmrun instruction can take and use all escape sequences are needed to adapt the format vmrun to this argument.

    That is right.

    What are the advantages/disadvantages of the use of PS/CS5 in 64-bit on 32-bit please?

    From the point of view practice, in addition to the 64-bit version is a little faster to just about everything, the limits on the size of the document are lifted in the 64-bit version.  Basically, how can you make is limited only by the amount of RAM you have installed on your system.  You can do things like having the larger documents, a deeper story, etc. and did all the work quickly.

    However, the many 3rd party plug-ins, especially older ones, provide only 32-bit versions, which will only be 32-bit Photoshop.

    32 and 64 bit versions are installed by default.  It is important to note that most of the preferences are separated between the two, so you can have two slightly different configurations that could help the operations of specialty, you might need.  It gets pretty subtle, but for example I keep the 32-bit version configured with cache level 1 only, so that all previews images of low depth are always composed in great depth.  This helps me with certain aspects of the treatment of astroimage.  It is slower but more accurate.  However, I have several cache levels configured for my version of 64-bit, so it's faster for a general photography work.

    Here are some comments I found:

    Although the link is a powerful mechanism, it is not suitable for all situations. For example, for a user interface complex in which individual parts must be updated, based on the strict schedule, it would be preferable to use a method that assigns properties in the order. Link runs whenever a property is changed, this isn't the best solution when you want the changes to point out only some of the time.
