Best way to make the physical NETWORK card-> vmnic number?

Is there a known way to understand the link between the vmnic0, vmnic1... logical names and their relationship to physical network cards of ESX/ESXi? In other words, if you get on a new server with, say, 6 physical ports and a config on one vmnic, how do you know which translates to correct physics?

The means that I can think of are:

  • Check the MAC address within vSphere Client, but then you must somehow know the MAC of the physical NETWORK adapter

  • check the number of PCI of vSphere Client, but this seems a bit difficult to understand?

  • fix pull cables and are looking for "plugged" or not.

So, how do you do this, if necessary?

In fact, it is quite easy to see which port on a teddy bear refers to things in the VMware environment...

Look under configuring the host tab/Server/network element equipment adapters... This will show each NIC and what vmnic # are assigned to the ports. It will also show the MAC address of each port. If they are assigned to vSwitches, it will also show this info...

You can also see the Networking section (still under the Configuration tab) to see the vmnic # assigned to each vSwitch...

Multiport NIC generally have markings on the plate PCI to let you know which is which... All you really need to know is what is the beginning of numbering.

    Hello

    I know EXACTLY what you mean.  I was doing something exactly on these lines just yesterday.

    It is not trivial, but it is doable.

    For 'hard points', you can try the Spot Healing Brush first.

    But here is a tip that I use sometimes which may well increase overall finesse:

    1. select just the surface of the skin.

    2. selection a little market and soften the edge, just to make sure that you don't mess the edges.

    3. median filter - noise - and set the RADIUS to be big enough.  Look at the image to see the level of smoothing.

    4. change - bland and knock back effect, while it is not perfect, but makes a subtle improvement.

    Then, for clearing-up soft darkening, try the burn and Dodge tools, at a low level of exposure (and possibly with Airbrush Mode).  Work slow.

    Cloning with low opacity can sometimes help as well.

  • best way to make the guests timeout?

    I use MX 2004, and I need timeout voiceover guests. What is the best way to accomplish the timing? I used onEnterFrame countdown timers, but, but I had mixed - they do not have to be too precise, just working with a few predictabillity. I also fear that using onEnterFrame can slow things down too.

    I tried to use setInterval directly and have the time range to clear himself, but it didn't. I also tried setTimeout function of Senocular who uses setInterval, but it works only once, same kind of thing, I've tried in simpler form. I tried different things and now I'm all confuzzled - they sometimes work and sometimes not. I should probably start from zero (new), but times are looming and I can't think straight - I'm just a little thrasing autour - I also tried a 'status quo' loop, but then I get a "slow script" warning

    I think part of the problem is that I have a voice-over as guests and they are not finished at the time that the interval is disabled. I have them preloaded in a swf file and load the film like this.

    The tips are greatly appreciated, TIA!

    setInterval() always works and is fairly accurate, except if you need nearby 10 accuracy Ms (in which case you can fix setInterval to maintain the precise timing).

    any problem with your intervals of compensation is a problem coding and encoder.

  • How can I associate the virtual machine to the physical NETWORK card?

    Hello

    I have a host, has two physical network adapters.

    I want to use one for VM and give an ip address for this but I do not know how to configure it. In my view, "Manage virtual networks" fuction for this...

    Thank you!

    You should already have a phyiscal WHAT NIC assigned to VMnet0 (bridged). So if the choice as vonnection for a guest. Create a second connection open by assigning the physical NIC then to VMnet2, for example (VMnet1 is already in use). Assign this connection to the second guest.

  • What is the best way to make the window of the program to display in a secondary window?

    What I did to drag the window of the program on my secondary monitor.

    But when I did, I noticed that the window of program on my secondary monitor window is different in that all the icons/buttons (for example the timer/counter... etc) which will usually appear in the program window now are no longer there when the program window is in the secondary monitor.

    I was wondering what a bad way to run the program window to display on a secondary monitor?

    Can I find out the correct way to lead program window to display on a secondary monitor?

    Thank you

    If you use the emission of mercury, then only the video full screen, no button or the menu. If you not anchored and dragged the program for a second monitor monitor Panel, it should not change the buttons he had previously. You can alternate the slot and off the power of the key/tool icon > display the transport controls.

  • The best way to move the physical servers in a data center

    Hello everyone.

    We have 3 physical database servers and you want to move to a data center.

    These servers are primary servers 2 with the infrastructure of grid and race of RDBMS oracle as stand-alone server + ASM and a standby with three instances server = an ASM + 2 instances of RDBMS for the primary servers corresponding instance.

    Each said server has 2 interfaces eth - one to be used with DG and another to deal with the demands of the customers.

    The standby server has three interfaces eth - two of them are used with DG ant the third to process requests from clients.

    So the question is what would be the best and most simple way to move all the data from these servers to the cetre of data taking into account the fact that there are three corresponding virtual server already exists whith the sama of RDBMS and Linux version.

    Hello again;

    I moved a little smaller primary and waiting that my slip was something like this:

    1. on the primary database see the standby destination.

    2. on the current expectation cancel recovery and closing of the database.

    3. create directories of database on the new server.

    4. edit the tnsnames.ora on the primary current

    5. Add the tnsnames.ora and listener.ora on the new server.

    6. move the password files and spfile on the new server.

    7 Tnsping both servers

    8 use scp to move the database to the new server.

    9 start the recovery, and check gap

    Create a scp of SQL

    set the position

    Set feedback off

    set pagesize 100

    set linesize 400

    Select 'scp'. B.SID |' server_name:' | B.SID as newname from v$ datafile;

    Select 'scp'. B.SID |' server_name:' | B.SID as newname from v$ controlfile;

    Select 'scp'. a.Member |' server_name:' | a.Member as newname v$ logfile;

  • Best way to make the simulation software

    Hey guys, it takes me faaaaar too long to create my first simulation software and I was wondering if I could get some advice? I came to Captivate because I was using Screenflow, then AE initially to edit my subtitles/audio/intros and video files caused problems with preview/render. I basically want to captivate screenshots railways and the mouse to keep the file size down, so I can easily work on some post production in flash. But... If I export for flash to captivate, click on the mouse and the trajectories are not registered. If I have to 'release' of captivate and import the swf file into flash, it blocks Flash, even with the smallest clip. I've updated to the last version captivate but the same problems. What is the normal way to record and edit a screencast with captivate? Does anyone know why it is not export all data to Flash? Do I have TO use Captivate for post production and then export to the web?  Any information appreciated, thanks guys

    Why do you want to export the Captivate file to Flash? I don't get that at all. Captivate is the best tool to produce a SWF file which is a software simulation (interactive, demo or evaluation), made tons of those of the IMO. But never used Flash for that at all, Captivate takes care of everything.

    Moreover, I think that you posted something similar in another thread, please who is not considered a good practice.

  • Unable to bridge the physical network in Workstation 7 server

    Hello

    Newbie here. I looked through forums here and can see that some people have had issues trying to fill (VMnet0) virtual machines to physical networks. Not sure if someone came up with a definitive answer, so I'll add my scenerio to the mix.

    I implemented WMware Workstation 7 on a Windows 7 boot camp partition on my iMac and created a network of 3 Win 2 k 3 servers, a Win 2 k 8 Server, a client Win XP and Win 7 for the test. These are connected to a local network called LAN 1 and resident in an area properly.

    I'm trying to set up internet connectivity to network through the first win 2 k 3 server. This server has two network adapters - one on LAN 1 and a bridge to my netgear router. I configured my router to reserve an ip address for the server (192.168.0.5) and manually configure internet/bridge the NIC server with this ip address.

    I can't do a ping to the router (192.168.0.1) the Win 2 K 3 server and also my iMac (192.168.0.4) virtual machine. Can also ping the server of my iMac.

    I'm limiting my internet on the server tests to see if the machine alone can access the network before I try to configure the other machines to access.

    Have seen a few suggestions of uninstall, reinstall the bridge of VMware for the physical network card Protocol, but also to restore the properties by default Virtual Network Editor - I made two suggestions, still unable to connect to the network. Also changed the setting "filled in the ' in the virtual network to the physical network, bridge auto setting map editor.

    In the settings of the server vm, the machine has a list of two network cards - a set jumpered to the physical network, the other to connect to LAN1.

    Interesting thing is that the original image (vmware machine used as a model) is always set to NAT and is able to connect to the Internet.

    Spend about 6 hours to try a variety of ideas and get back on my feet, but I think that everything is as it should.

    Is there a bug in Workstation 7 or y at - it a step that I missed?

    Any ideas would be most appreciated!

  • virtual network card to the physical network mapping and default loadbalancing

    What Virtual Machine virtual network card is map physical NIC.

    For example.

    lets assume Vswitch1 on host1 esx dedicated for the network of the virtual machine (port group) and it has 6 cards network linked to it (vmnic1, vmnic2, vmnic0, vmnic3)

    Load policy (default) Balancing - from the originating virtual port (it balances only outbound traffic through all the nic assigned to vswitch1 right?)

    ESXi host1 <-Vswitch1 (the VM network) <---(vmnic 0-vmnic 3)

    Lets assume that esxi hosting 6 virtual machines and each virtual machine has two network cards configured.  Through some documents, come out of that when the virtual machine is running, it gets connected to the ports of availabe on virtual swicth. say, I turn on the virtual machine in the order VM1, VM2... VM6.

    Vmname virtual adapter port on virtual switch1 Mapping of the physical network adapter                        

    VM1 eth0, eth1 1.2 which mappeed of the physical NIC to eth0, eth1?

    VM2            eth0,eth1                              3,4                                      ?

    VM3            eth0,eth1                              5,6                                      ?

    VM4            eth0,eth1                              7,8                                      ?

    VM5            eth0,eth1                              9,10                                    ?

    VM6            eth0,eth1                              11,12                                  ?

    Since we use load balancing based on the virtual port, can two virtual map of the same virtual machine are mapped to the two physical NETWORK card I want say eth0 VM1 is mapped to the (physical nic) VMNIC0, VM1 eth1 get connected VMNIC1 (physical nic).

    It would be great if you could explain how the virtual network adapters are mapped to the physical NIC Y at - it a command or a script to the list NIC(of all vms hosted on esxi) virtual NETWORK adapter mappings physical in detail.

    Is there a way to know what virtual NIC to connect to which physical NIC

    With the virtual NETWORK adapter, you hear the virtual card inside the VM? If if and when you use several VMNIC like you, there is no visibility in vCenter (usually vSwitches, we see with Distributed vSwitches).

    However, you can use the command-line ESXTOP tool in the view 'n', for the connection between the virtual machines and the outgoing vmnic.

    What is the best way to replace the second copies of photos created during import with revised versions? Export, seems to be an option, but is there a method named? I use Lightroom CC/6

    I don't think you understand the concept of Lightroom. The settings are stored in the catalog. They are not applied to the images. The catalog is the key. If the images in the main location are damaged or lost, then you can copy the backup images at that location and any adjustments that have been made will be implemented. The main thing you want to be sure to do is have a backup of your catalog, as well as a backup of your images. You can export copies of your images as JPEG, PSD or TIF images, and these copies will have all the adjustments included.

  • ProBook 4520 s - exchange of the wireless network card

    Hello everyone.

    I think the exchange of the wireless network card in my Probook 4520 s, due to the low flow.
    So I searched for a while a 5 Ghz supporting the card and found out that I am only able to get in the "white" cards list working. Then I looked at this page:

    http://h20000.www2.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/document.jsp?lang=en & CC = US & objectid = c02487851 & jumpi...

    These cards can be any, that have been used in 4520 s. Mine (according to the Device Manager) is the Broadcom 4313 802.11b/g/n. This thing only supports 2.4 Ghz. Now, I looked at the list for a 5 Ghz supporting the card. I think that the 802.11A/B/G/N WLAN Intel HMC 572520-001 minicards can operate on 5 Ghz, because I read, that A appears only with maps of 2.4/5 Ghz. I read too, that maps of 2.4 / 5 GHz have 3 antennas, but on this card I only the slots for 2. Is this good? And this card would go into my 4520 s?

    Greetings,

    Colony

    Hi, colony:

    You are right about your statement about the cards being described as A/B/G/N dual-band.

    The best thing to do is look at Chapter 3 of your service manual.

    You can only order one of the cards listed as supported and it MUST have the HP reference on it or it won't work.

    I see only two possibilities for you...

    The 6200 Intel and Broadcom 4322.  Make sure you also get the part # that corresponds to what country you live.

    If your current Broadcom card has integrated Bluetooth, you will lose your Bluetooth capability if you order an integrated HP bluetooth module and probably the cable too.

    None of the dual-band cards have embedded bluetooth.

    Link to the service manual.

    http://bizsupport1.Austin.HP.com/BC/docs/support/SupportManual/c02439213/c02439213.PDF

    Then, you can order a card on the link below.

    If you do not live in the United States, you can change your country at the top of the page to yours.

  • Add the second NETWORK card to vSwitch

    I'm working on trying to add to install a second NIC physical to the vswitch which is installed by default when ESXi. I use the code below, but when I run it, it disconnects in fact the main physical network card and of course, I then lose connection. I tried different varients of this and even finished by adding a port of vmk, which I didn't do. I just want to add the second network card as a standby card network.

    #Add second NIC to the virtual switch
    $nic = Get-VirtualSwitch -VMHost $currentHost -Name "vSwitch0"
    Set-VirtualSwitch -VirtualSwitch $nic -Nic vmnic1
    

    The cmdlet Set-VirtualSwitch accepts a string array as the value of the parameter - Nic. So you should be able to:

    #Add second NIC to the virtual switch
    $nic = Get-VirtualSwitch -VMHost $currentHost -Name "vSwitch0"
    Set-VirtualSwitch -VirtualSwitch $nic -Nic vmnic1,vmnic2
