• Put virtual machines inside the VMkernel port group

  Hello

  Network for administrators of VMware SIAS layout:

  "You can not put VMs within that group of port because it is made especially for a VMkernel port."

  However, I use ESXi 5.5 and is able to put normal interface of VM inside the vmk port group. (I only created 1 vmk port group so all virtual machines in the same group with the vmkernel interface)

  May I know if this is a new feature, or something is wrong?

  Thank you!

  This may be possible with distributed switches not with standard switches.

  It seems that "get-nicteamingpolicy" comandlet cannot take dv types as input, but I don't know if.

  Seems I forgot, you must use Get-VDUplinkTeamingPolicy to VDS switches

• Configuring the Network Ports

  Hi all

  In the inventory menu-> networking in my vSphere client 4 I see that someone has set up several 'networks '.

  How to understand which physical ports, they are assigned to, or understand how to route traffic.  I know if I have a DMZ network and a NETWORK card out of the demilitarized zone, how to make a virtual machine use this port?

  Thank you

  C

  Networking is via the use of virtual switches. The physical network are assigned to the virtual switch and the law as "uplink ports. There are three types of virtual switches:

  1. Internal only Virtual Switch - this provides networking remains completely inside you ESX host
  2. Virtual switch with the one uplink port - provides not only the networking between the ports conencted to the switch but provides also for the traffic to a physical network
  3. Virtual switch with 2 or more ports uplink - provides not only the networking between the ports conencted to the switch and provides for traffic to a physical network, but also allows for the grouping of NETWORK cards

  All the networks for your ESX host going thorugh virtual switch management traffic and the vm. There are two types of ports that are connected to the virtual switch:

  1. VMkernel Port - used for your ESXi including vmotion and iSCSI host management traffic. In an ESX host, it is also called the Service Console Port. This port wiill assign its own IP to uniique
  2. Group of ports in Virtual Machine - your virtual machines will connect to the virtual machine port group - it does not get an IP address as the IP {address iss asasociated with the virtual amchine

  When you look at your network in the client VI the right side will be the uplink ports - the physical posrts in your ESX host. The left side will be the or groups connected to the virtual switch ports

• HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909a USB 3 questions about the configuration of the network - port USB3 problem

  Fujitsu Windows 7 laptop (all USB2)

  used the full software and installed a printer HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909a Series as a network printer.

  The printer installed fine and don't have USB connection

  All the software and scanning twain installed, so I was able to scan the copy etc.

  I could browse and choose my PC from the front panel of the printer

  However, it was Tuesday confirmed to a friend that their printer would work on a new laptop - bought the laptop

  Fujitsu - but more recent model with 3 USB ports

  I have install and then used the same FULL configured driver to be installed (V14)

  selected as a network printer and then, during the installation, I get an error hardware error USB and USB drivers

  All the USB works, that I've used - BUT the printer is networked and no USB used

  tried to download the driver and install it-exactly the same question

  SO I configure using the devices and printers 'add printer' network and installed

  I can print OK

  BUT no analysis facilities

  and on the façade - cannot see the new PC to scan to

  The only real difference, is that this PC has USB3 and only mine has USB2

  DO not know why on a network installation USB even when searching for

  It's a problem because Drivet package not has not been updated for USB3 - y at - it a patch?

  Thanks for any help / advice

  Hi etaf,.

  I guess the short answer is: Yes, the problem with the software and the 3.0 Port.

  The long answer with a possible work around is as follows: first of all, the software looks for minimum requirements. Because the software is older, he doesn't know what a 3.0 port. You are right when you say that it should work since you do not use the USB and use wireless instead, but this is not the case.

  There is something we can try, but I can't guarantee it will work. I thought first we could connect a USB cable and run the software made to force the software to see the USB port, but then the software wouldn't even get far enough because you can't plug the cable to the most later in the installation.

  My second thought and most promising suggestion is to connect the USB cable (although we do normally not until the software prompts us to) and use the installation wizard HP Print to get the insteaad of software to use the CD or download from the printer driver page. Still, I can't say with certainty that it works, but I don't see why it would not be worth a try.

  If it works, and we get the software installed you can convert the USB connection to a wireless connection using the software. Fingers crossed! Download and run the with the following link. Printer HP install wizard for Windows

  If this does not work, or you don't want to bother with it (not worth trying), I might consider getting a new model of the printer. You can even call HP. They might be able to offer a discount on a newer model. If you are in the Canada, U.S. dial 800-474-6836 or you can Contact HP worldwide.

• Standard vSwitch_Custom VM (Vlan200_VM network) port group does not.

  Hi guys...

  Scnerio:

  ESXi 5.0

  VCenter 5.0

  2 connected local network cards to vswitich 0 Active\Active configuration.

  The virtual computer name: FSAPP_1

  Note: good VLANS are created externally NETWORK

  I created another group of ports VM network VLAN 200_VMnetwork.

  I have attached TWO maps LAN to VM. A LAN card is connected to the port default VM network group and another is connected to network VLAN200_VM.

  A LAN card is connected to the local network (Private IP) and another is connected to the Wan (public IP)... IF I CONNECT the TWO VMNIC "DEFAULT virtual machine network" I am able to ping both subnets.

  
  

  But any vNIC which is connected to the VLAN200_VM network is NOT working...

  
  

  
  

  Please see the attached snapsshots...

  Thank you

  I did not ask you to do what I asked you to test is the separate two VM on the host even be configured to use the VLAN 200 portgroup and verify that these two people are able to talk to each other.

  Once you've found that the books above. Go back to your network team and make the request to configure the switch in the trunk output ports (which does not remove the tag VLAN on the package on the output of the switch) as opposed to be defined as access (that strips the tag VLAN).

  It is my firm belief that the port group does not work because your switch is misconfigured based on my above statement.

• Tecra 8100: Don't know if the Network Port Replicator II is working properly

  I had a PA3017E-1PRP, i.e. a Network Port Replicator II, for my Tecra 8100. The fact is: I don't know if it works. I plug the computer in and no new material appears. At least the 3Com NETWORK adapter should be recognized, but no sign of life is presented at all.

  In addition, the USB ports does not work, but at least, the leds of the watch of the computer there is come from there because they show that battery is charging and the power comes from the DC.

  So, how can I check that everything works correctly? The computer is Windows XP SP2 installed, and I installed all the drivers and the support of the utilities (common modules, mobile and other extensions) util Toshiba USA and Toshiba Configfree of Toshiba Asia...

  Hi Toka

  I really put t know why you install software mix on your device. In my opinion, you should install European tools and utilities if you live in Europe. But if everything works it is also OK. I just want to make this comment because I don't know if all tools can consort with each other.

  As much I know this unit only is not supported for Windows XP Home in Europe. If the US page has mobile extensions for Windows XP Home edition, I assume that it has been tested.

  You can use a ports from there or all of them are dead?

• Add the default gateway for the VMKernel port group

  Hello

  I use this script to create a VMkernel port group, but the last part of the gateway address of updates to script for all groups of VMKernel ports. How can I change the script so it adds the passage for the 55-CHI-VMKernel port group only. Thank you.

  $hostname6 = "host1".
  $pg = New-VirtualPortGroup-55-CHI-VMKernel - VirtualSwitch "vSwitch1' name - VLanId 55

  New-VMHostNetworkAdapter - VMHost $hostname6 - $pg PortGroup - VirtualSwitch "vSwitch1' - '10.33.1.77' IP - subnet"255.255.255.0"- ManagementTrafficEnabled $true mask

  IP address of the gateway #Add
  $netMgr = get-View (Get-VMHost $hostname6 |) Get - View).ConfigManager.NetworkSystem
  $iproute = new-Object VMware.Vim.HostIpRouteConfig
  $iproute.defaultGateway = "10.33.1.3".
  $netMgr.UpdateIpRouteConfig ($iproute)

  Have you tried it like that?

  $hostname6 = 'host1' $pg = New-VirtualPortGroup -Name 55 - CHI-VMKernel -VirtualSwitch "vSwitch1" -VLanId 55
  New-VMHostNetworkAdapter -VMHost $hostname6 -PortGroup $pg -VirtualSwitch "vSwitch1" -IP "10.33.1.77" -SubnetMask "255.255.255.0" -ManagementTrafficEnabled $true

• Add the new port group to dSwitch

  Hello

  Given that I have never done this and this prod, as I decided to ask first ;-)

  In ESXi 4.1 using a dSwitch, if I add a NEW port group using a VLAN that is not in use (on this dSwitch), that will force any failure to migrate it virtual machines on this dSwitch?

  Adding this new group of port causes the dSwitch "reset" in a manner that will cause the failure?

  You should be able to add, modify and/or delete groups of ports without affecting other groups/VMs port connected to other port groups. Just follow the steps in http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1010593

• Why double the network ports on a Mo?

  Hi all

  I see that many MB s, especially game and Server MB, now come with double rear network ports.

  How is what is used?

  The main use for NIC cluster is in a server/NAS environment. For the internet, it is of no use. Everyone today has a modem/router to connect with a cable or DSL provider and not supported is associated with the map NETWORK and bandwidth, you have with these providers is significantly less than a 1 only Go NIC can offer. It is only when you work in an environment of Server/NAS dual NIC is really advantageous. The speed to get the GB of data from or to the Server/NAS is actually doubled by partnering.

  Imagine that you need to send 100 GB of data on the server or NAS. In addition to the rounding errors, it would theoretically take about 14 minutes without balancing the load on the network, by partnering you would achieve 7 minutes in theory. In practice, these numbers will be higher. Teaming makes it possible to use assets in your projects that are stored on a NAS or a server, without dragging down the performance of the system. And of course, the NAS backup is twice as fast.

• Group VM for vSphere replication - even point in time

  Hello

  Is there a way to group a set of virtual machines to vSphere replication, so I ensure the consistency of the request in an event of DR. Take for example, Microsoft SharePoint which split into three servers, application, DB and reporting services. All have a RPO of 4 hours. If we had a DR scenario, the recovered VMs will have different replication timestamps. The DB might 3 hours since the last replication, but demand only 5 minutes from desynchronization. This could cause problems of consistany with dependencies.

  I want to ensure as much as possible to the point of replication in time is the same.

  Any ideas?

  Hello

  Multi-vm component coherence is on the roadmap for a future release vSphere of replication.

• Assign the new port group guests

  Hi all

  I am trying to use a work autour for non persistent pools, due to the dependence on an application IP static.  Is there a way to re - assign a group of ports to a guest VM?

  Thank you in advance!

  Tim

  Try thisd

  Get-VM  | Get-NetworkAdapter | Set-NetworkAdapter -NetworkName  -Confirm:$false
  

  If you have more than 1 NETWORK card connected to the prompt, you can use a where clause clause to select the correct NETWORK adapter

  Get-VM  | Get-NetworkAdapter | where{$_.Name -eq "Network adapter 2"} | `
     Set-NetworkAdapter -NetworkName  -Confirm:$false
