• Cannot add the vmkernel nic: a specified parameter was not correct. vSphere CLI + ESXi 4

  Hello. I try to add vmknic with frames in my distributed virtual switch.

  I read the vSphere command-line Interface Installation and reference Guideguide:

  "vicfg-vmknic - a-i DHCP"vmk5"

  I see the error message:

  Cannot add the vmkernel nic: a specified parameter was not correct.

  Vim.Host.VirtualNic.Specification.Ip

  What's wrong?

  I tried all the combinations of parameters with the same result.

  Ok! I've found a workaround.

  Since adding a vmkernel remote interface doesn't seem to work with DVS, I simply created one on a standard vSwitch and it then migrated to the DVS. And voila: the value 9000 MTU migrated intact with her! Here are the steps I followed:

  1. put the ESX host into maintenance mode - evacuate VMs manually if necessary

  2 remove the VMKernel iSCSI/NFS to the DVS interface

  3. create a standard virtual switch with no physical cards. He has no need to be a VMKernel VM Networking switch is fine. Make a note of the name you gave to the PortGroup created on the new vSwitch.

  4 using the remote control line, add the new interface vkernel specifying an appropriate jumbo MTU (9000) and the PortGroup on the standard new vSwitch. For example:

  esxcfg - vmknic.pl - Server

  If you get 3 answers, everything works. If you get failures, something has gone wrong. Go back and check that the interface is configured correctly using the command list esxcfg - vmknic.pl-.

• Cam of the NAC could not add the access switch

  Hi all

  My problem is I can't add the access switch to the cam using mozilla firefox or IE.here attech file cannot add the device. Any idea to solve my problem?

  Hello

  Plese note to add a device (switch) to the CAm, you must go to the leadership of OOB-> appliances-> New.

  First, you must configure the SNMP settings on the switch and the cam so that the cam and the switch can communicate.

  I advise you to make sure that carefully read the configuration for OOB guide and management switch:

• get the 1726 error: cannot add the port monitor

  Could not complete the installation.

  Hi Jeff,

  The computer manufacturing must have created a partition on the disk or provided you CD to restore the computer to the way it was when you bought it. If you have a PC clone, then probably you need to reformat your hard drive and reinstall the operating system. If you have an OEM computer (example: HP, Dell, ETC) there is most likely instructions when you turn on/off press F11 or F12 to return the computer to the computer.

  Note: Do nothing until you have all of your backup data.

• Cannot add the header HTML - CFWebstore on CF11

  Hello

  I get the error below on a new installation of CFWebstore v6.6 on CF11. I used a previous version of CFWebstore on CF7 and CF9 without problem. Looking for suggestions...

  Cannot add the HTML header. ColdFusion is unable to add the header specified in the output stream. It's probably because you used to define one of the ColdFusion Cookies of Session or authentication cookie. To do this, please use configuration at the application server level. The error occurred on line 213.

  Thanks in advance for any help!

  I found this answer:

  To resolve this issue, connect to Coldfusion Admin, go to the memory Variables and uncheck "Disable the update from Coldfusion cookies using tags/functions of Coldfusion." Memorize your settings, and then restart your Web site.

• Script adding a host to a distributed switch does not

  It's weird and I'm sure it's something simple.  I've created a script that configures the NTP and the syslog on a host computer.  I added on the configuration of the standard vswitch0 and part works fine.  I set the MTU, add a vMotion and port FT and that part works fine. I wanted to add on a section of code to add the host of our distributed switch.  Environment vSphere 5.5 U2, switch is a distributed switch 5.5.  For some reason, the code is not error at all but just does nothing.  However, if I paste the code into a Powershell window it works fine.  Same code, same host, same switch.  Ideas as to why it works manually by pasting the code into a window, but does not work, I use the script itself.  Here's the code that does not work in the script:

  #Adds vmnic5 and vmnic6 for the distributed switch

  Write-Host

  Write-Host «Addition of $VMHost to the switch distributed $vds...» "- ForegroundColor"green ".

  Disconnect-VIServer *-confirm: $false #earlier part of the script is directly connected to the host

  SE connect-VIServer $vcenter | Out-Null #$vcenter variable created earlier in the script

  Get-VDSwitch $vds | Add-VDSwitchVMHost-Server $vcenter - VMhost $VMhost #$vds and $VMhost variables collected earlier in the script

  $vmnic5 = get-VMHost $VMhost | Get-VMHostNetworkAdapter-physics - name vmnic5

  $vmnic6 = get-VMHost $VMhost | Get-VMHostNetworkAdapter-physics - name vmnic6

  Get-VDSwitch $vds | Add-VDSwitchPhysicalNetworkAdapter - VMHostPhysicalNic $vmnic5 - confirm: $false

  Get-VDSwitch $vds | Add-VDSwitchPhysicalNetworkAdapter - VMHostPhysicalNic $vmnic6 - confirm: $false

  Seems pretty simple, but for some reason it just doesn't work.  Any ideas?

  When you load the script into an editor (PowerShell ISE for example) and can run from there, run the cmdlets vDS?

• Cannot add the VMNET2 (virtual switch)

  I had installed the VMware Server on vista professional. Requriment to add the vmnet (virtual switch) to create different network. I went and virtual network management, but on this page, I couldn't apply it but after selecting the Vmnet, so I had to click on the Cancel button.

  I thought that the problem occurred due to installed corrupted dump. I downloaded the new dump of VMware server 2 vmware.com and installed again but no luck.

  Could someone tell me why this problem occurred.

  Attached is the screnn to manage virtual network for your reference screen

  Server 2.x is not officially supported under Vista or any other desktop OS but that said, it seems that it works ok although you can have problems with virtual machines to stick to 95% when booting on x 64. I run it, for test purposes, and I don't have the occasional other question requiring reboots or other corrective measures.

  The usual reason for the button apply shaded in vmnetcfg is because you do not like a true admin - with UAC turned, you perform a "run as Administrator". In addition, you may need to restart the VMware Host Agent services and Web Access after changes to these changes is visible/available.

• Cannot add the ESX 6.0 host to vCenter Server 6.0

  OK, I'm testing laboratory a vsan 6.0 cluster.

  I have my running 6.0.0 esx hosts and vcenter server is 6.0.0 also.

  I have the services platform on a virtual machine and vcenter on another. I was able to create a data center, then a cluster below.

  Then I went to try to add a host to my group and I get this error...

  Failed to contact the specified host (hostname\IP). The host may not be available on the network, may have a network configuration problem, or that the management on this host services may not respond.

  
  

  Per this KB: KB VMware: Add a host VMware ESXi/ESX from VMware vCenter Server fails

  
  

  I confirmed that my vcenter server and platform services server can see all esx hosts. From the vcenter server, it can ping the host esx and PuTTY can access all of them. I even installed the client and it can connect to all esx hosts. I used the netbios name, IP and FULL domain name and they all work.

  I have only a single subnet, so this isn't a problem. DNS resolution works in all areas of both sides, vcenter esx hosts and host esx to vcenter.

  
  

  I am quite puzzled.
  

  
  

  
  

  OK, after working with VMware on this issue, I think that I thought about it.

  All my hosts are DL360 G6 servers.

  My hosts are run the same build «VMware-ESXi-6.0.0-2494585-HP-600.9.2.38-Mar2015.iso» ESX Downloaded from HP.

  All buildings are in trial mode.

  After placing a call to VMware, they had me build some ESX VM, the services of the platform and the vcenter VM on an ESX host. We suspended because it took all day to go upward.

  Once I woke up all the parts (sql server, esx vm, server platform & vcenter) in virtualization nested, I created my data center, then Cluster then added the ESX host.

  The hosts added properly, no error. Then I remembered when I installed ESX inside a virtual machine, I am angry that the iso, I had the habit of HP does not work in my VM nested due to virtualized hardware.

  Then a fire came into my head. We will rebuild all of the physical cluster but NOT use the CV provided the iso file but use VMware provided iso file "VMware-VMvisor-Installer - 6.0.0 - 2159203.x86_64.iso".

  I did it today. I have rebuilt all hosts with the provided iso file VMware ESX...

  Spun SQL Server vCenter, service platform, all VM VM VM you need. My AD & DNS VM are on another server, so he has been upwards all the time.

  Connected to the web interface (yuck!).

  Created my data center...

  Created my Cluster...

  Add all my Cluster hosts.

  All of this worked!

  Therefore, if you encounter the same problem, I'm plan to generate your with the provided iso file VMware ESX hosts and try it. In my case, the provided HP iso file didn't work properly for me.

  I also downloaded the iso file of HP 2 other times to make sure and do a validation test and it did the same thing.

• Cannot add a host with the host name in VC

  Hi all

  Nice day.

  I just finished the installation of 2 servers esx4.0, Vartual Center Server and domain controller server in my home test harness. I added both the host esx server in DNS records. then I tried to add hosts to VC by using the host name, then I get the error message like

  "Unable to contact the (xxxxx) host specified. "the host may not be available on the network, a network cofiguraion problem can exhist or that management on this host services may not respond.

  I checked that all are ping and found no network configuration problem. I am able to add a host using the IP address, but not with the host name. I checked services in VC, all services run very well. Earlier I never had this problem.

  Please help me if someone has the solution.

• Consolidation and failover for the uplink on the Distributed switch port group

  Hello

  I have a problem with the implementation of a distributed switch, and I don't know I'm missing something!

  I have a few guests with 4 of each physical cards. On the host eash I configured 2 virtual switches (say A and B), with 2 physical network by vSwitch using etherchannel adapter. Everything works fine for etherchannel and route based on the hash of the IP for the latter.

  Recently, I decided to create two distributed switches and move the respective physical ports of virtual switches to this distributed switches. Once again, I want to configure etherchannel and route based on the hash of the IP. But when I open the settings for the uplink port group, aggregation and failover policies are grayed out and cannot be changed. Apparently they inherit configuration also but I don't know where!

  You must set the card NIC teaming policy on trade in reality and not on the uplink group more expected.

• Required for NAC firewall ports manager manage/add the Cisco switch

  Hello

  I am trying to add switches cisco for the NAM, but I am not able to add the switch I get the error "unable to control switch" I tried opening ports 161-162 on the firwall; If I were to allow all traffic between the NAM and the switch, cisco NAM is able to add/manage the switch.

  Do not know what are the other ports may be required for cisco NAM for managing the switch?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  As far as I KNOW, only UDP 161 and 162 for SNMP communication ports must be open.

  Please make sure that you have configured the correct port on the switch:

  (config)# snmp-server host 172.16.1.61 traps version 2c cam_v2 udp-port 162 mac-notification snmp 

  If still does not, I would check the logs on the firewall for any traffic blocked between the cam and the switch.

• Cannot add the NFS share to store Cluster data

  Hello

  I have this scenario:

  Server - FREENAS with NFS share

  -cluster with 2 guests

  I added the NFS datastore successfully to each host in the cluster. The problem is when I try to add the NFS Datastore for the Cluster data store, I get the error: a specified poarameter was not correct. datastore.info.type.

  Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

  Thank you.

  Datastore1 and datastore2 data warehouses are data warehouses local? If so, you must remove these storages of data added before the NFS datatore to the cluster, first cause a cluster cannot be VMFS and NFS on the same cluster and second cause without making sense have warehouses of local data within a cluster data store.
