Cannot add the VMNET2 (virtual switch)

• 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-.

  Enjoy!

  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.

• NSX 6.1.5 - distribute Firewall rules are not applied to the empty virtual switches

  Hi all

  We have a big problem since we have improved the NSX to version 6.1.3 to 6.1.5.

  I get a bug following this procedure:

  . In vSphere Client--> NSX, create a new virtual switch

  . Distribuer distribute the firewall, create a rule to deny traffic between two survey periods. Example: source: all, destination: all, service: all, Action: reject, applies: the new virtual switch

  . Connect two VMS to the virtual switch and you can test the other (this is false due to the firewall rule)

  . Publish ANY changes on the firewall distribute (could not be related to our rule. Example to change its name to another rule), and the rule starts to operate.

  Additional steps:

  . Remove the firewall rule

  . Identify the virtual machines in the virtual switch

  . Re-create the firewall with applies rule: the virtual switch (still empty)

  . Connect the virtual machines and ping between them. Yet once, the rule does not work.

  . Publish ANY changes on distributed firewalls and the rule starts to operate.

  NSX version 6.1.3 and 6.2.0 both work correctly. But I can't downgrade to 6.1.3 or upgrade to 6.2.0. 6.2.1 upgrade involves the upgrade of several other components.

  I use the following versions:

  . NSX 6.1.5

  . vCenter Version 5.5.0 Build 2414847

  . ESXi, 5.5.0, 2718055

  Please, any ideas?

  Thank you very much

  D.

  She seems to be a bug in 6.1.5 NSX and there is no solution for this yet. There are workarounds, but none of them apply to my "fully automated" environment

  We need to wait for a fix or upgrade to NSX 6.2.1 requiring an upgrade of several components as well.

• 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!

  Gary

  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.

• Cannot add the host to the distributed switch

  Hello

  Updated some time a go to vSphere.  Environment has 2 hosts and I left it with standard switches.  Today, I thought I'll add a distributed switch and use the extra features etc.  I added the switch d however when I come to add a host it there are none listed?  Can someone tell me how do I migrate from standard to distributed please?

  Kind regards

  Stuart.

  First of all. Do you have an Enterprise Plus license? Distributed virtual switches not working Enterpise more licenses or if you are using the Evaluation Version.

  Secondly, you have all available vmnic? unless a computer host a vmnic unused, the hosts will display not.

• vifp addserver fails with the error cannot add the user

  This my first post on this forum that I couldn't find an answer via Google search. If I do not use correct terminology or fail to provide comprehensive information, please forgive me. I'm not an expert on VMWare, just a passionate curious tech. I found VMWare to be a very exciting and easy to use product. The VMWare knowledge base is excellent and so is the community of users.

  I have install VMWare ESXi 6.0 free House on servers Dell T420 and T110 II. I recently tested vMA 5 by installing it as a virtual machine on one of the servers. I watched the tutorial Youtube how to use vifp to add servers. I have network etc. on vMA installation and it works fine. Automatic update worked. I issue the command sudo vifp addserver 192.168.250.96, I am prompted for the password. When I enter the password, I get an error error: cannot add users. I checked the log file in /var/opt/vmware/vma/vifpd.log and the more descriptive message is:

  addServer: error occurred when adding users for 192.168.250.96... roll back. An error occurred during the creation of users on 192.168.250.96

  Then I noticed that since I'm on the console vMA to run these commands, as soon as the error occurs, I see that in the lower part, under recent tasks, I see an error: General system error: weak password. The details of the error says:

  

  Weak password: not quite different characters or classes.

  Now my password is strong enough. I can't post it here but I'll post a similar password:

  4518Gabdhjg #01

  It is 14 characters and has the numbers, letter uppercase, lowercase letters and special characters. I read the VMWare documentation on passwords and for me, the password seems very well. Any help will be appreciated.

  Thank you

• cannot add the new hard drive more than 2 TB on vsphere upgrade 5

  can someone give me a clue? I can't add new greater than 2 TB drive to my vm on my upgraded vsphere 5.0. My data store is 6 TB and already read by vsphere... I create new virtual machine and add the new drive, but it limits again just 2 TB when I change 4 TB, the error message will appear. I recently added my datastore LUN with VMFS5 version. is there a any mistake I made? Please help me this problem is so frustrating me... i need to create new disk 6 TB to my new file server

  Hello.

  You will need to use a RDM in physical Compatibility Mode to achieve. As weinstein5 said, a VMDK cannot be greater than 2-to-512bytes. You can use the OS to spread over several 2 TB-512bytes VMDK, if that's what you really want.

  Good luck!

• Cannot add the Flash disk

  Hello

  I came into work this morning to find one of our servers in a State that won't start plu.

  This virtual server is hosted on an ESXi 3.5.0 123629 server with two data warehouses.

  The following error occurred when trying to start the server.

  Please check that the path is valid and try again. Cannot open disk 'path to the file DEVSQL1_1 - 000001.vmdk' or one of the snapshot disks it depends on. Reason: The system cannot find the specified file.

  When you browse the data store, I could see the vmdk file.

  I learned later that the DEVSQL1_1.vmdk file has been moved to the another data store.

  Unfortunately, at this time, I removed the hard drive that was pointing to the file - 000001.vmdk if I could add a new hard disk that points the moved file from DEVSQL1_1.vmdk.

  Server started the first pop, except that the data stored on the disk problem are old.

  At this point, I stop the server and moved the DEVSQL1_1.vmdk file to its original location. Then, I removed the disc newly added and tried to add a hard drive pointing to the original DEVSQL1_1 - 000001.vmdk. When you do this I get the error "object reference is not set to an instance of an object" and I am unable to go further.

  When open the Snapshot Manager, I am unable to see relating to this disk snapshots.

  Anyone know how I can join the DEVSQL1_1 - 000001.vmdk disc in order to start the server and also have access to current data?

  Thank you very much

  Glen

  Glen - I don't think we should use this DEVSQL1 - 000001.vmdk snapshot

  I have no evidence that it has been used in the history of this virtual machine.
  It does not fit to the size of its parent disk.

  Do you remember if DEVSQL1.vmdk has been developed in the history of this virtual machine?

  Edit the vmx and change

  scsi0:0. FileName = 'DEVSQL1 - 000001.vmdk ".
  TO
  scsi0:0. FileName = "DEVSQL1.vmdk".

  It was also the State used when the machine virtual last started successfully.

  Honestly, I was a little surprised when you found this DEVSQL1 - 000001.vmdk

  You have an idea about this?

  After editing the vmx file the VM must start - when starting carefully inspect the condition = if it is out of date turn off directly.

  I doubt you'll see an out-of-date status - but if the first disk is expired I must expand the snapshot - that would be a bit strange
