Auto & ESXi 5 Cluster deployment dependencies

Hello

Chicken before the egg here question: I have a cluster DRS/HA with 2 5 ESXi hosts. I would use Auto Deploy to theses guests. Automatic deployment is installed in vCenter Server is virtualized and lives in this cluster. If for some reason, I can stop the two hosts (power failure) scheduled without UPS intervention or of backup generator how will host later be put into service if they are both without disk and response to Auto deploy for their configuration? A host will require ESXi must be installed on a disk (local or remote) and be powered with vCenter Server (and therefore deploy Auto) before running the other host comes online? Basically a host is using Auto deployment for its configuration, and the other host uses the method of classical records?

Thank you

Steve

Steve,

I would not recommend using AutoDeploy if you only this two-home group and either ESXi hosts.

AutoDeploy is designed to facilitate the deployment and management of patches of large scale environments.

In such environments, it is advisable to have a separate group dedicated to the performance of the machines of critical infrastructure (such as vCenter), and the hosts of this "group" should not use AutoDeploy, but must be installed in a traditional way.

  • Model of cluster deployment

    I will put up two ESXi 4.1 vSphere servers to start our upgrade process. I have a logic unit number that contains our templates on my ESX 3.5 servers. I also submitted this to my new 4.1 server. I also put in place an active cluster with only CVS. Now, when I try to deploy a new virtual machine for the model to one of the hosts in the cluster 4.1, I get an error (nothing more specific than "error with model... vmdk"). As a test, I moved a cluster host and tried to deploy a new virtual machine of the model to this host. It worked.

    Here's my problem. In order to perform vmotion, that I must have active CVS. The only way to activate CVS is to set up a cluster. I also need to deploy virtual machines models to the hosts in the cluster. Is there a setting I'm missing that would allow the deployment of work for the hosts in the cluster? The user that I'm connected to vCenter is an administrator, so I have all rights in vCenter.

    Thank you.

  • ESXi 6 5.1 esxi host cluster

    We look at some guests entering our cluster 5.5 from another Department and several of the host already have esxi 6.0 on them. Allows you to manage an environment vsphere 5.5 6.0 or we host problem? We will eventually get them to 6, but just curious to know if it will work in the short term.

    I know that vsphere 5.x - 6 are compatible according to the interoperability matrix, I simply asked if a host 6 can be managed by vsphere 5.5?

    Anyone try or know of the literature on the topic

    Thank you

    Nope.  You must now pass so vCenter to 6.0

    I know that upgraded the hosts before VC and give them a slap.  This is the wrong shape

  • SOA Suite 11 g Composite soa Cluster deployment

    Hello

    I installed an environment of 11g two nodes clustered soa with HTTP server called roads to the Admin group and SOA load balanced url. Deployed a composite criterion to the cluster of soa.

    endpoint of the test a node1 service name of host and HTTP load port of balance because of which I could test my service manager of the company. I replaced the url with load balanced host and tested in the browser and works very well.

    Then some body help me if I'm missing some configurations. How can I get load balancing url in the Web service endpoint when I deploy it on my cluster soa. Help, please.

    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for the nice reply. Yes for our customer it is no problem to access the service with load balanced url. I want to fix this in the EM console. As indicated, I put the front end host and the port for cluster of SOA in the initial configuration itself.

    It ask me a question, would it because my HTTP server and node 1 are installed on the same node host names with different aliases?

  • Cluster on different ESX-ESXi

    Hola,

    UN tenemos con 2 nodos ESX cluster. Los nodos replaced its ESX 3.5 version back. Queremos ampliar el cluster con UN tercer nodo y los existing migrar a 4.1.

    Las questions sound:

    1. instalar en el nuevo nodo ESXi 4.1 Podemos y seguir utilizando ESX (migrando has 4.1) in los otros back? Esta soportado?

    2 hay alguna mid-week/requerimiento para o ESX ESXi a cluster mismo dentro solo use?

    Espero vuestras great thanks for the help.

    Saludos,

    Marc

    1. instalar en el nuevo nodo ESXi 4.1 Podemos y seguir utilizando ESX (migrando has 4.1) in los otros back? Esta soportado?

    So, no any problema esta totally soportado hat.

    2 hay alguna mid-week/requerimiento para o ESX ESXi a cluster mismo dentro solo use?

    If the transport are Quebec City el siempre tenga el mismo cluster build in los ESX.

    También lo important are todas los ESX vean las premium redes y same data warehouses.

    Also important that if tenes a cluster esx mixtos, al menos tengas homogeneas con las vmware tools intaladas in las vms.

    Saludos y buen Año!

  • Small tips ESXi deployment/assessment

    Hello. I would like to try something on ESXi free edition deployment before committing to all kinds of licenses. I have two quad core intel E5405 with 24 GB RAM for virtual machines and dual gigabit ethernet. Each machine has 2 WD RE3 drives 7200 SATA 1 TB I can mirror. I'm not sure that's the best configuration first. I would get 5 4 GB VM by machine. I am concerned about a material (IE what might work better) and backup software strategy (I read that esxi is limited). I got my network remotely to start and stop VMS as well to understand the health of virtual machines are important. I have IPMI on these machines therefore have significant ability to remote control on the equipment itself. I wish that this deployment do not have to change that much if I decide to license and which can resemble this path. Looking for advice. Thank you very much.

  • Configure a cluster of vsphere with 2 host with internal storage shared via HP LeftHand - doubts

    Hi, I'm trying to create a two-node esxi cluster. These nodes will share their internal storage with HP Lefthand Appliance (HP StoreVirtual VSA). I need the first steps to create the cluster, or better, the macro blocks, IE:

    -install esxi on each node
    -install Virtual Center and create the vmware cluster

    -Deploy the VM VSA...

    I have a lot of doubts because of the reason why I can't have (installation of the HP guide said) virtual machines on other than the VM VSA itself VSA data store. How can I configure things? Creating first two warehouses of data, deploy VCenter on a data store, create the cluster, deploy VSA VM on the other data store...

    Can you help me please?

    DL380G5 host as the location for the ODM is ok, but you may need to upgrade the host in any case since v12 FOM requires ESXi 5.0 or newer.

    ... what happens if the update fails and the hypervisor does not start more?

    I know we can't answer a question with a question. Anyway, how do save you virtual machines on this host now?

    It is true that the VSA VM cannot be migrated, but I can migrate the VCenter to a to another data store when I will have created the DATA of VSA data store (one that the hypervisor consider as an iSCSI target), I'm good?

    I'm sure that it is correct. Unless I'm missing something, vCenter Server is just another virtual machine running on the cluster VSA VSA does not require vCenter Server to run.

  • Backup of ESXi host configurations

    When you use the host profiles, what is the best way to save specific ESXi hosts?  Your host profile standardizes the host configuration, but if you need to restore your ESXi host for a reason, even after the application of the host profile must be configured to the specific IP, hostname, etc of the host.

    Assume that you have an installation of VMware enterprise with 50 + guests.  Is there a good way to automate the backup and restoration of specific configurations of different ESXi hosts?  RCLI scripts? VMware Assistant management scripts? Some 3rd party management software tools?  Your ideas / popular experiences. (In this environment Auto-déployer has been dismissed as a management option)

    Thank you

    Yep, answer files are a feature of the host profile and do not depend on deploy Auto.

    Automatic deployment takes just left this feature also.

    Hi David,

    You may be walking on ground dangerous with your fpga code, old and new.  You use the modules in what is known as 'calibrated' calibration mode that is of fixed point math.  Your generation of square wave fpga using whole math, which is normally used when the modules operate in mode calibration "gross". To change the calibration mode, you will need to right click on the module, then select it desired mode to use.  I'm not saying that you do.

    What you need TO do to ensure the proper functioning of your fpga VI is to make sure that you use U32 son of math required and then convert the U32 an FXP using the correct encoding (if it is signed, word length and integer).  In your case the 9263 requires signed word in length, 20-bit, 5-bit all over.  Insert an FXP conversion between the generation of square wave and either create a constant FXP of the appropriate type (or use a control correctly put in place of one of the other 9263 channels [AO0 AO1]) and connect to the node of type of fixed point on the conversion OR define the conversion of fixed point with a right click on the exit node and the appropriate settings in the popup box.

    As for your new code fpga, I don't know why you used a sequence structure that your reading of 18 channels on the 9205 will have 144 microseconds, and each write two channels on the 9263 will take 5 microseconds.  I've not worked on how long will take the square wave generation.

    I do not understand your last question.

    > "I've attached a screenshot of my pwm_out.vi if I remove control of read/write of background, or if I don't use of all none of the analog inputs, it works fine.

    > But as soon as I add the analog inputs it fails... ».

    Did you create a new stream of your fpga_new.vi and referenced in your pwm_out_new.vi on the RT?

    It is difficult to guess what you are showing in the screenshots.  If the project is not too big then maybe you could post here.

    As mentioned above, by JMoto, software versions help.  Check in MAX you have on your PC and also on the cRIO 9002 to make sure that there is no incompatibility.

    See you soon

    Hola,

    por lo as he visto, el error tienes esta asociado has several things between las that include the version of LabVIEW, the led driver (OR-RIO) y el engine analysis. Para solucionarlo vamos a hacer back try cosas:

    1 - restore todo el software del cRIO.

    Ve Al para ello MAX > Configuration > remote systems > cRIO-9012 > software. Select software con el boton derecho y pincha sober Add/Remove programs. Desinstala todo el software del cRIO. When is reincie, boring the Operación para instalarlo. At the hora of seleccionar el software than dedicate instalar, marca NOR-RIO (my) x.x.x (ano). NO selecciones option OR-RIO x.x.x (my) (ano) with the help of the Scan Engine OR. Reinicia y vuelve a hacer el deploy para ver el error if ha notice.

    2 - Formatear el driver.

    In primer lugar, el Hay mover DIP Switch led driver safe MODE has the position IT. Ve al MAX, select el cRIO-90xx con el boton derecho y Select format the drive. Once formatted el driver y reiniciado, dale the IP y subred used mascara y reinstal todo el software según lo descrito en el paso anterior (Scan SIN motor mount). A hacer el nuevo prueba deploy desde el proyecto.

    The part on the cores is related to your virtual deployments, so if you use virtual VCS, he wants to make sure that you use the same size of deployment noticed on pg 4 of the installation Guide for the VCS VM.  You don't have to worry about this with the hardware appliance.

    Hello

    We have VCS cluster in our environment (primary and secondary control VCS and VCS-Express). I could see almost as many end points on each control VCs. How is endpoint knows which server control VCS, it must register to? How does this load balancing is performed. any setting that I have to look?

    Thank you!

    It depends on how you have your DNS configuration.  Can you tell us in detail how you have your end points registering on clusters, as well as how you have your DNS configured?  Do you use SRV, alternate records?

    The VCS Cluster Deployment Guide, annex 5 goes on how set up your points of termination for you join the cluster and the different methods to do so.  Appendix 6 covers the SRV records.
