Cannot connect ESX 3.5 host after fresh install

I just do a fresh install of the host ESX 3.5. I can't connect it either by VI client or web browser. I can not ping. The ESX host can ping itself, but cannot ping the other. The network connection must be OK, because I don't have an FTP facility. I stopped the firewall and iptables. Things do not change. My work equipment used to run ESX 3.01, everything was fine. Is there a magic here?

When I do the install, I put a VLAN ID as '1 '. The default value is blank. Does make a difference?

Yes defining a tag VLAN will make a difference - try to run through the installation with defining a tag of vlan or go in the console and we ELE esxcfg-vswif command.

  • vMotion fails at 9% - Source host cannot connect to the destination host

    Hello

    I wonder if someone could shine any light on why vmotion fails to occur between an ESXi host who has just been restarted, in order to test HA. I have the following configuration:

    3 x ESXi5 DL360 G7s with two 4-way NIC

    VSphere Vcenter 5

    1 x cluster configured for DRS HA

    2 x Procurve 2910 - 24G

    The switches are not connected to each other.

    Both switches are configured as such:

    1894901.png

    All ports are not marked. NO PLEASE, no routing

    Each host vMotion vSwitch is connected to two switches by 1 x 1 GB nic

    I configured a vswitch on each host of vMotion. There are two ports vmkernel with two IPS on the same subnet. There are two vmnic attached to the vSwitch. On each port, a Vmic is configured to be active while the other is unused. I enabled frames on the vSwitch and 2910 switches. A VLAN has been configured on the two predisposees 2910 for vmotion with frames and defined traffic on "no label". I can successfully vmkping all the ip s vmotion on all ESXi hosts. However, when I test HA by stopping an ESXi host, when I restart the ESXi host I am unable to vmotion in that ESXi host. When I test vmkping I find that the host rebooted can only vmkping itself and no other host can vmkping it. Vmotion attempt fails on 9% and errors with the source host cannot connect to the destination host. If I restart the two switches of 2910 I can then perform a vMotion and the vmkping is a success.

    Help, please?

    Thank you

    I have since read up on the various load balancing options and find that your method is preferable during the method of "ip hash.

    I'll make the change to "port based" and link the two switches

    Hello Simon, I think it's a good option to do, since the hash IP load balancing is a bit special and really requires both interfaces to connect to the same physical switch, which must also have a specific configuration. If you like the results after the new changes.

  • vCentre Server 2.5 cannot connect to the VSphere host

    vCentre Server 2.5 with VMware 3.5 host work well, but it cannot connect to VSphere host.

    On step 4: ready to perform, there is an error message:

    Cannot access the specified host. He either does not close, the server software does not respond, or there is a network problem.

  • iMac cannot connect to 7520 printer (wired) - after six months of work very well.

    My Photosmart 7520 worked fine for six months - cables for iMac, wireless for Mac Book and iPad.

    Suddenly, the iMac to which it is connected, unable to connect to it.  Then, of course, the other devices in the House cannot connect wirelessly is.

    1. total stop did not help.  Printers, sometimes he showed a light yellow, sometimes shown green and slowed down... but sending print jobs made back to "unable to connect".

    2 remove the printer from the list, and since the iMac can't find it, I now have nothing.

    3. I can't do a reset of the printer because I lost the driver for my old Perfection 2400 scanner.

    I have never been able to activate the web services.  That this has something to do with it?

    Help. Sandy

    Hi Sandy,

    Sorry to hear that there are some problems with your connection to the printer Photosmart HP 7520.  If you don't mind not could you please answer a few questions that might help me understand what could happen.

    The 7520 Photosmart printer has an Ethernet (wired network) port, in "wired", I'll assume you mean that the printer is connected to your iMac via USB cable.  You the first thing I would try is to unplug the USB cable to the back of the printer and taking again and then do the same thing at the back of the iMac.  I know that sometimes because of the angle of the cables, they can be loosened.  See if the iMac can then "see" the printer.

    You can remove the printer from the printers and Scanners, system preferences, selecting the printer in the list on the left, then pressing the key less at the bottom of the list.  This should in no way affect or not wearing your Epson Perfection 2400 is always configured in your PC.

    Can you please tell me if your iMac is on the (access point) network as your MacBook and iPAD?

    When you use your iPAD to print, it can "see" the printer (you can select or it appears by name)?

    Finally, if you tap the wireless on the front panel of the printer, it should display the IP address of the printer.  Your MacBook when it is connected to your wireless network, open Safari and type http:// and the address of the printer showed you.  Safari open the page Web of the printer or a mistake?

    Thank you

  • Can't find the inventory after fresh install of VIO 2.5?

    I installed successfully VIO 2.5 on a vCenter lab w / NSX 6.2.3 and waited two weeks to complete the deployment, and now vCenter cannot connect to the management server in VIO. The vApp and VMs (Manager and model) are running, and I can't SSH in Manager and can PING vCenter to SSH, but I can't ping of vCenter. It showed upward in vCenter and the VIO plug in seems to work, but he can't find the administration server, event though I can still select it from taking in. The only thing I see so far is that when I SSH in and try to use the viocli, I get an error message: cannot find the file inventory. OpenStack may not have yet been deployed. Since I have just installed the Server Manager only and stopped, I thought I would try to uninstall VIO and start over, but this procedure does not seem to be documented that I can come up with a plan b. thoughts? Thank you, dude64

    I solve this problem I found that some of the clock of the ESXi host were not synchronized because they could not reach NTP. Once the clocks were synchronized, the problem disappeared. I attribute this to vCenter based SSO that everything in my laboratory is related to, but error messages and logs were not indicative of the root cause.

  • Cannot connect ot my wireless network after you run Setup WRE54G

    I bought a camera (ver. 3 - en) WRE54G refurbished. Just before the installation, I was able to connect to my wireless network, internet access, etc.

    So I ran the installer for the WRE54G to my laptop, which failed because the installation program could not connect to the diving (device was plugged).

    After this attempt, I am still able to connect to my wireless network at home with my laptop, however, I cannot access the internet.

    Other computers (macBook, my Galaxy Tablet) have no problem with the wireless network, only the laptop that ran the Setup program.

    I restarted the wireless router and my laptop several times. I then unplugged the WRE54G - no difference, Iam not able to access the internet.

  • Cannot connect ESX to HP MSA 1000 box

    I have 2 ESX servers. These two servers are connected to a HP MSA 1000 (that's our mini san)

    On the connection to one of the vi console box, I see the server and 3 comments below.

    On the creating a new virtual machine, I can connect to a data store. There is no connectivity between this box and the table.

    On the connection to the 2nd ESX Server via the VI Client, all guests show as unavailable.

    I can't restart or do something with these clients.

    In addition, trying to add a new virtual machine, I see nothing in the screen of data store. (then becomes invalid)

    Is this a problem with conectivity between the ESX Server (in which comments are unavailable) and the HP table?

    Can what commands I use to tets connectivity to an ESX Server data store and check if data warehouses are available?

    Hello

    So, I assumed that the aircraft was down and had to be reset. The guys at HP have not upgraded the firmware of the device as they wanted to ensure that there are no compatibility issues with the firmware of the MSA 1000 box cards HBA and firmware.

    Interesting, that I never got to restart my unit to get connectivity. I would upgrade to firmware active/active.

    A strange thing is that this MSA 1000 has 2 controllers, but one of the controller was never connected to the box. Not bad, it is inserted into the MSA1000. It seems therefore, that there is no (active-passive, active) configuration of the array of redundancy. It's something I want to do moving forward.

    Just insert it. Make sure however that the main port HBAS on each host is connected to the primary controller within the MSA. If they are not get you flip flop unless you use Active/Active firmware.

    At this point you can connect via the Web, VI and the ILO in two boxes of ESX Server and Yes we had also a connected Windows box (it was never passed on to me), so now in the windows box, I started the utility of matrices of Compaq and I can see the raid configurations.

    This is how to configure the MSA. You can do not to ESX or the ILO, only a box separated from Windows with qlogic HBA or cable series. That in general, I have connected to my ESX host so I could control things without needing a separate windows box.

    Oh boy! IF anyone of you can guide me to a good guide for the configuration and connections between MSA1000 SAN and ESX hosts, it would be wonderful.

    HP should have one.

    Another question: I noticed that the version of ESX is 3.0 and VI client is 2.0. Also when I connect through the VI client, I see that the tab of the inventory and the administration, I don't see the options such as cluster options and also activate the plug-ins for VMotion and VMupdate Manager. When I connect through the VI client, I login as root.

    Should I be upgrading the infrastructure of the ESX 3.5 and the VI Client to 2.5 to activate all options?

    These options are available in 3.0 and 3.5. Not really sure what you're asking here. But I think it's a separate issue and should have its own thread.

  • WRT160NL cannot connect to the web interface after firmware update

    I've updated the firmware to unofficial http://mirwifi.org/download/fw/WRT160NL/wrt160nl-0.1.3-pre5.bin and since then I can not connect to the router through the web interface. What can I do? Is it possible to update the firmware to the official without web interface? Thanks in advance for any help.

    The router's default IP address is 192.168.1.1. Try to ping the IP address of the router and check if you get answers from the router.

    Open the Internet browser and in the address bar type http://192.168.1.1. See if you can open the router configuration page.

    If this does not work then you can try to update the official firmware on the router using the TFTP.exe file.

    Disable the firewall on your computer. Connect the computer to the router with the Ethernet cable.

    (1) download the official firmware file from the site Web of Linksys router. Save it to your computer.

    (2) download the tftp site Web of Linksys. Follow this link to search for the file tftp. You'll find downloads for router BEFW11S4. Select the version 3.2 hardware and download the installation wizard. Save it to your computer.

    (3) run the installation wizard. In the server box, type the IP address of your router. In the password box, type the password of the router. Default password for the router is admin. Find the file of the official firmware you have already downloaded and click on upgrade.

    See if it works.

    After upgrading the Firmware on the router, it is recommended that you must reset the router and reconfigure.

    Press and hold the reset button on the router for 30 seconds. Release the reset button and wait 10 seconds. Power cycle the router and reconfigure.

  • Cannot connect to Windows 7 and after stabilizing off (cold boot), got a message bootmgr is missing.

    I went ahead and shut down my computer last night as I do every night. When I got home and turned on, I got a message to connect. I've never had to do before. It's a desktop pc. I use my laptop for that. Then when I turned it off (cold boot), after that, I got a message saying that the bootmgr is missing. Then, after that, I had no choice but to do a system restore. I found one of my Seagate external drive, which took most of my info on (until it became full and I could save is nothing else). So, after I recover most of the important things, I'll buy another external hard drive to back up my info, I should have backed up before. I must have got a virus. I don't know how, if.

    Hi Dotty,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    The description of the question, I understand you are facing a problem with Windows 7 login and you also mentioned that, when you have disabled (cold boot), you got a message bootmgr is missing.

    I appreciate if you could answer a few questions.

    1. What is the model of your computer?

    2. don't you make changes before this problem?

    3. you have backup DVD for Windows 7?

    The most common reason for BOOTMGR is missing include boot, responsible for the initialization of the operating system are either corrupt or missing. Another reason is that if the computer is trying to boot from a hard drive or flash drive that is not configured correctly.

    I suggest you follow the methods provided on the KB article below and see if that fixes the problem.
