Can I use a NAS as a remote data store

I currently have 5 cisco ucs esxi hosts to my main place. I'm looking to get rid of the old servers to each smaller branch location. I was wondering if I could put a NAS at each branch and use the NAS to connect its main location esxi hosts remotely and use it as a data store.

-Main branch therefore has all esxi hosts

-Remote sites (10 of them, a few miles) place a NAS that will be the data to the site store.

-L' idea is to keep the user data at each remote site and didn't browse the EXTENDED network

If so, of the recommendations on a NAS?

Welcome to the community - is that you're looking to virtualize servers of your remote sites - if you were to store virtual machines in remote offices you will be magnifying the amount of data flowing through the WAN connections - I store the VMs remote offices in the same location as the ESXi server that will host virtual machines

  • Can't see the logical volume when creating data store - vSphere 4.1

    Hi guys, got another problem with ESXi 4.1 on a HP Proliant ML350 G6.

    ESXi 4.1 update 1 has been installed successfully on the server on an internal USB. Our next step is to create a store of data through the vSphere client.

    The server has five 500 GB SAS configured in a RAID 5 array drives. The server has a HP Smart Array P410i RAID controller. I see five physical disks and logical volume of about 2.3 TB in RAID Utility. However, when access us the hypervisor via the vSphere client and try to create a data via a storage LUN/local store, the display shows then no logical volumes or the drive bays on which to create a data store.

    We are usnure why this is, as the ESXi 4.1 installation program could see this logical volume when I was installing the hypervisor, but he does not appear in vSphere for use in a data store.

    If anyone can help?

    Thank you very much.

    Each disk must be less than 2 TB - 512b

    Alternatively, you can use VMware converter or cold Migration / Storage VMotion if you have the appropriate licenses.

  • How to specify the file of virtual hard disk when you create a new virtual machine using virtual hard disk on the data store?

    I'm new to PowerCLI and find quite simple, but in the documentation I read, I don't see how to use a virtual hard drive, existing on a data store when you create a new virtual machine.

    Is this simple registration on the virtual hard disk, or did I miss something?

    My current create VM is the following statement:

    New-VM

    -Name $TargetHostName -host $TargetVMCenterHost -data store $TargetVMCenterDatastore DiskMB - 20000 -MemoryMB $TargetHostMemoryMB -NumCPU $TargetHostCPUs -ID $TargetHostOS -CD -Description $TargetHostName

    Didn't notice this before, but I think that vSphere will use a backslash instead of a slash in the paths.

  • An external HD w / 6th gen Airport Extreme can be used for NAS?

    I ' d like converted my Mac home theater use more, and I thought about options for NAS.» My current kit includes an old 802.11 g Express, so of course I will upgrade to a new extreme for bandwidth extra. I see the extreme has a full range of ports at the back, so can I attach an external hard drive of quality to the extreme and end up with a good - although budget - NAS?

    can I attach an external hard drive of quality to the extreme and end up with a good - although budget - NAS?

    Yes, if you are willing to accept extremely slow performance compared to a normal NAS.  The reason is that the USB port on the AirPort Extreme is only USB 2.0, and due to the limitations of speed processor on AirPort Extreme, the port is working at only half the speed of a USB 2.0 on a computer.

    So, at best, the 'budget' NAS can run about one third to half the speed of NAS normal. This might be OK for backups and other data that you may not access on a normal basis, but it would not be recommended to try to locate a picture of 'work' library, video library or other type of audio/video media on the USB key which will be available on a regular basis.

    Another issue to consider is that the USB 2.0 on the AirPort Extreme is in power, then you will probably need to use a USB powered with AirPort Extreme hub.

    Finally, most of the USB hard drives are now USB 3.0... and the port on the AirPort Extreme is only USB 2.0.  In theory, USB 3.0 is backward compatible with USB 2.0... but the theory does not always true in practice.

    If you already have a USB 3.0 drive, Apple does allow a privilege to return 14 days for the purchase of new AirPort Extreme, so if you still wish to proceed, you can try things for a week or two to see how well... or, even if... .they will work.

  • How can I use GDAL to read pyramid georaster data?

    I use this dataset = Gdal.openshared("geor:username/password@dbname,rdt,rid",Access.GA_ReadOnly method) to read raster data of georaster, but simply read data from the source. If I want to read the data of the pyramid of georaster, how could I do?

    Kind regards

    Lin

    Lin, as Ivan explained in another thread, the cumulation is made by calling sdo_geor.generatePyramid, so the same block sizes apply on the pyramids. in your case, it would be 512 x 512.

    When questioning a georaster object or its pyramids, gdal would still only blocks that overlap with your query window, the so-called selective recovery recover.

    So is it possible for vSphere CLI through which we can tell if the SCSI disk device can be used as ROW or NOT?

    and what parameter defined as capable of RDM?

    Thank you

    Chandra Sekhar P.

    Hi Chandra,

    In order to get the SCSI LUNS that can serve as RDM, you must use the QueryConfigTarget method. This method is defined on EnvironmentBrowser. You need to recover some EnvironmentBrowser object ComputeResource the HostSystem where the virtual machine is created. The configTarget.ScsiDisk returned after the method call contains the logic unit number information that is capable of RDM.

    I hope this helps!

  • Qosmio G30: Can I use component video software plug-in to connect the Gamecube or PS2?

    The Qosmio G30 has a VIDEO-IN bit for the red/white/yellow wires... So I wondered if this meant that I could connect my PS2/Gamecube/similar to television, playing games on my laptop, save me money when I move to College :)

    Indeed, if I pretend that I'll put up a set - top box for the TELEVISION, the Gamecube appears under "Video Composite", I just can't save like a channel or anything at this point...

    Someone help? Would be very grateful...
    Thankee.

    Hello
    The s-video-in port can be used to connect and to import data from the external device such as an analog video camera or VCR. Imported video can be edited or written on a DVD disc.
    Video port can be used to connect the external device such as a game console

    I think you should also consult the user manual because you will find the full description on unique ports and use.
