After Update 2, Esxi 5.0 host cannot see storage

• New ESX host cannot see SAN fiber - Clariion

  Hello

  I spent about two hours, passing through communities and have tried various things without success... basically, I have a new ESX host that I've built, configured, and networked, but I can't see our existing SAN.

  The SAN is a Clariion CX3 - 10 c and it hosts all of our existing VMs (we currently have two hosts attached to the SAN)

  I have installed the CLI and Navisphere agent on the new host

  I have started to host and that you have ENABLED the two adapters Emulex HBA (host contains two HBAs installed) because they showed as disabled by default BIOS

  I have one of the HBAs connected to the fibre switch

  On the fibre switch, I have a flickering green light where I plugged the fiber cable, which makes me think, it is connected OK

  On the HBA, I have a green light and an orange light blink, which still makes me think the wiring is correct

  BUT I do not see the front Navisphere host, and the host cannot see all storage even after re-reading.

  Any ideas what to try next? I suspect that it is perhaps something to do with zoning - I must say the Emulex HBA how to find storage processors? If so, how can I go about it? From the BIOS by restarting the host and pressing ALT - E?

  Any help or advice appreciated...

  Assuming that hard zoning this site should provide you with some

  Help

  http://TechNotes.twosmallcoins.com/?p=16

  Also once the switch is zoned if the host is not listed on

  the Clariion Navisphere agent system has a config file that needs to be updated

  with the IP addresses of the SPs.

  You can also manually enter the host if necessary, but your

  probably zoning question.

• Host cannot see Local disk for VSANs

  Hello

  We are building our first host VSANs and fell at the first hurdle. Our host config is:

  IBM x 3650 m4 7915
  ServerRaid M5110e
  1 x 200GB SSD SATA
  1 x 600 GB 10 k SAS SSD
  IBM Vmware Hypervisor USB with 5.5 u1 image installed.

  The problem is that the esx host cannot see the 2 disks that are mounted. Lists under storage controller MegaRAID SAS merger adapters (not sure where he gets the name of merger of). When I click on the controller for 2 drives do not appear under devices or paths. If I go in to the RAID controller to start upward and configure drives individually to be RAID 0 then ESX sees the two discs, but unconsciously, cannot identify the Type of the SSD drive. I think that there is a work around that, but I know that's not ideal, and according to the vSAN HCL of the Raid Controller above supports passthrough. Get the pull-out hold to work turns out to be difficult, but I hope that it is just something simple, I missed. Someone at - it an idea where I should start looking?

  Thanks in advance.

  Thanks for the tip CHogan, it worked, but after reading the disadvantages of this method in your book "Essential Virtual SAN" I persisted for the pass-through to work on the raid controller.

  After some further research it turns out that I had to physically remove the RAID 1 GB Flash cache on the motherboard. In removing what it affects the RAID controller. He calls it. mode of TMI which allows for amp JBOD.

  Thanks to all for your responses.

• ESXi 5 cannot see storage after installation

  I recently downloaded an eval of ESX, which included ESXi 5.0 60 days. I installed it on a test server, but there the LVM is not listed under data warehouses that shows only a data store that is the OS disk (LVM is on a separate RAID array).

  I tried SSHing on the server but not from the usual commands for example lvdisplay, pvdisplay, etc. works, I can't manage it with vCentre because when I try to register I get: "VMware ESX and VMware ESXi servers are not compatible with vSphere Client Web 5.0.0."

  How am I supposed to manage storage?

  Download and install the vSphere client. Access the host through it. You can download the form available in webaccess hyperlink vSphere client.

  https:// .

  Once connected to the host, select storage in the Configuration tab.

  Select Add storage.

  storage RAID or LVM physical should be visible here.

• ESXi 4 host cannot see IBM FC N3600 storage

  I configured the N3600 as described in the pdf of vmware SAN guide.

  The LUNS and initiator are implemented as VMware.

  I have a Dual Port 4Gbe Qlogic HBA on the HP DL380 server.

  ESXi has two vmhba.

  vmhba1: 50:01:43:80:04:c4:cc:25 50:01:43:80:04:c4:cc:24

  vmhba2:50:01:43:80:04:C4:cc:27 50:01:43:80:04:c4:cc:26

  I have setup an initiator group in the N3600 with OS type = VMWare and the two following initiators in it.

  50:01:43:80:04:C4:CC:24

  50:01:43:80:04:C4:CC:26

  For some reason any when I rescan the vmhba1 and vmhba2 I get nothing. No devices no path

  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

  You say "no devices no path.

  To me that looks like a SAN issue. Please check on your FC switch zoning.

• ESX host cannot see the data store

  Hello team, I have vcenter management 5 2 host esxi5. now added an esxi4 in the cluster and added iniitators for file systems. I can see the paths under this host of esx4 showing the LUN of the registrants. but I'm not able to see the data to store. When I tried to edit a newly created virtual machine to find the iso from the data store, it shows only the local hard disk of the host, which is a UCS blade. exsi5 hosts the two ok to see all data stores. can someone tell which part is wrong? Thank you!

  Looks like there is no problem with the presentation of the logic unit number since you can see the path to the LUN from the host.

  Is - these created data VMFS storages are 50 ESXi? If so, the VMFS version 5 (VMFS 5) which is not supported in ESXi 4.1.

  In this case, its expected that the host ESXi 4.1 will not show VMFS5 data warehouses.

• PS CC 2014 appearing is not in the Mac Finder after update

  Just did the update/install the PS CC 2014, and while I can see the app in my applications folder if I do a spotlight search, it does not appear in the Mac Finder when I go into my applications folder. In fact, it is the case for several applications of CC 2014 after the update. For example, Muse CC 2014 and 2014 CC InDesign appear in my folder of applications, but not Illustrator CC 2014 or PS CC 2014. Someone else this experience and/or have a resolution? I did a reboot after update of the cc app 2014 to see if that will fix anything, but it does not.

  It's annoying to have to do a spotlight search to reinstall all my plug-ins just to launch the application.

  My experience has been that for some reason any eccentric, my installation location has been abandoned applications for my own Documents folder. I discovered that the installation path has been changed in the creative cloud desktop application under > preferences > Apps > installation location and I had to correct cela back to the HD/Applications.

  Regarding your plugins, CC 2014 structure is different and you have to wait your plugin maker updates. Simply dragging the plugins from the old installation CC could cause problems.

• Update / fixes ESXi single host with VCSA running on it.

  We have just updated since the free version of ESXi 5 by ordering the Kit of Essentials. In the process, of course, we were able to deploy vCenter Update Manager (which has been the main motivation, like patching manually the free version seemed to be quite a pain). We have a Windows host that has installed the Update Manager, and we have a VCSA running on the single instance of ESXi, we deployed to date. We were able to install the plugin on the viClient and scan the ESXi host for patches with success (a need a good number). But, we're stuck trying to install the patches... us when trying to restore the host, we get: "the operation is not supported on the selected inventory items. Check events for the objects selected for the operation.

  The host says:

  The 10.0.1.80 host has a virtual VMware vCenter machine

  Device server with VMware vSphere update

  Manager or VMware vCenter Server installed. The

  Virtual MACHINE needs to be moved to another host for the

  consolidation to proceed.

  error

  28/08/2014-16:21:32

  Clean up the entity

  10.0.1.80

  root

  Looking at this logic, for the host switch to maintenance mode, the VCSA should have been suspended (apparently, actually moved), which would avoid in turn patches / updates to the deployment. Am I correct in thinking, that we have a second host and networked storage? Made a Kit Essentials / license provide for the possibility of vMotion from one host to another? It wasn't really clear... Yes, the web site says "vMotion" is included in most Essentials, but find it me hard to imagine any point to a facility in ESXi stream without the ability to vMotion between one system and another guest...

  Welcome to the community,

  And since you have only an ESXi host and your vCSA is running on this host, you cannot patch this host with Update Manager for reason that already know you: the host should be the maintenance mode.

  Add about another host, with Kit Essentials without vMotion functionality, you can try using a data store of shared storage between two hosts, stop the vCSA on first host and switch the vCSA on the second host... and finally the first host patch.

• After the migration of ESXi 4.1 to 5.0 Update 1, ESXi containing the missing data store

  I intend to upgrade to an ESXi 4.1 production host, but I want to run through an upgrade of test on a separate machine. I created this using a virtual machine and the upgrade went well. However, now when I insert my vSphere client, I don't see the data store that contains data to my VM.

  Before migrating to 5, I had 2 drives, a disk of 4 GB for ESXi, and a 40 GB drive for the data of the VM installation. I could see and access times stores via the 4.1 vSphere client, but once the upgrade only the VM data store is available. Is there a reason that this is the case?

  I've updated but has not changed the partitions of data store. I have selected to migrate and keep the VMFS store, which was VMFS-3. I also tried to add the store drive 4 GB with the customer data, but an error message: "the selected disk already has a vmfs data store or the host cannot perform a conversion of partition table.
  Select another disk.

  I found this article on error message: http://KB.VMware.com/kb/2000454 , but I never actually removed from the data store. With the help of the 5.0 ESXi update I can see the VMFS store on 4 GB drive, which should have about 3.2 GB of available disk space (the rest being used by the hypervisor).

  Recommended someone else try esxconfig-volume - the list, and then use the output to a mount (http://communities.vmware.com/message/1666168#1666168), but the list command had no output at all.

  I searched through the forums and Google but you saw nothing.

  ESXi 5 has a different architecture, and I think that the problem is the size of the disk (too small) and the partition of scratch required.

  Have a look here:

• Cannot open after update to v 30.0

  I run Windows 7 and cannot open Firefox after update to v 30.0. I uninstalled and reinstalled several times without success. I do, however, show: firefox.exe * 32 in the section of the Task Manager processes. No browser opens and the only way to "kill" for uninstalling I did was to "complete the process"; Right-click on the icon in the bark of the task and clicking the X did not a thing.

  Anyone else having this problem?

  It would open in safe mode, but when I tried several times, it will sometimes 2 or 3 tries to work, with each attempt showing the firefox.exe. * 32 under the Task Manager processes. I ended up resetting Firefox and it now opens normally - I have to rebuild my extension library, etc. Thanks a lot for your help! I really missed FF!

• Cannot record music on ipad after update to IOS 9.3.

  Cannot record music on ipad after update to IOS 9.3. In the view 'now playing' I could tap on the title that opens a window where I could score 1-5 stars. Now by tapping on the title just changes the display of the album. What can I do? I would be very unfortunate if I could rate is no longer my music while listening to it on the IPad. The 1-5 star rating still works in Itunes, but it is a great help for me. Thanks for help.

  Try this below the steps it will work!

  You must press the title to bring up the option enter a star...

  Once it is visible, touching it will bring back the title most of the time and allow entry only part of the time.

  "need to press the title of music playback and the rating stars will appear."
