• Catalogues and several PC

  Hello. I am new to CC & confused about catalogues and several PC. My catalog (5.5 GB) resides on the C: drive to my desktop PC, like the installation of Lightroom. My pictures are on an internal hard drive F:. I also have Lightroom installed on my laptop. The two computers are on the same network. What is the recommended method to access the catalogue of my laptop and have all changes reflected on two computers? I have read many articles and posts on this topic, but I'm still confused.

  Hi davida31228700,

  We do not recommend to store the catalog on the network even if you can have images stored on networks.

  If you want to have the same work in the computer, you can have your catalog on a disk external with the images so that you can use same catalog back and foam between the two computers.

  But wait a minute, you mean that the "Num vMotions" and "Num of SvMotions" properties have a value of 0?

  This is normal, since you ask for events for the entity of the group, while you should do it for all the virtual machines in the cluster.

• ESXi installation process and storage CF

  Hi all

  It's been a while since I worked with the CF based storage so forgive me if this is a silly question!

  I remember at the time of ESX 3.5 when a host is created, it is strongly recommended that you unplug your HBA as the installer ESX 3.5 was inclined to wipe your FC LUNS during installation.

  Is this always the case? If I add a bright new ESX5.1 host in a cluster existing I have to disconnect from the connected FC SAN for the generation?

  Thank you

  Chris

  No, during the installation of ESXi, it scans all the storage controller and storage/LUN connected to the server. Setup ESXi offer screen user input to select the storage that you want to install ESXi and installation takes place on the selected disk.

  If you are using a scripted installation, make sure that mention you the right VMHBA device in the KS file and remove the firstdisk option. For even if the device driver of the CF charged first by ESXi, KS file controller resumes the VMHBA right for installation.

• Isolate the vMotion and storage traffic?

  We use ESXi 5.1 using two physical switches for management traffic and two physical switches for VM and storage vMotion traffic. We use a DVSwitch with VLANS separated for VMs (125), storage (126) and vMotion traffic (127). My question is really about the physical switch setting. I have installation of VLANs, 125, 126 and 127 on my main switch with each of them having a layer 3 interface. I think that only the network of the VM (vlan 125) needs a layer 3 interface. In other words, my VLAN storage and vMotion is not routable by removing the 3 layer interface.

  Does this sound correct?

  Another twist, I have a Juniper switch where all layer 3 interfaces are defined. It is connected to 4 switches in the rear of my IBM Bladecenter. Two of these switches are Cisco 1 GB switches that carry all traffic to the management through a vSwitch network. The other two switches are BNT 10 GB switches that carry traffic for Storage vMotion and VMs. Of course, it's a network connection, because it carries several VLANS.

  My only question now is should I eliminate interface layer 3 on my storage network located on one vlan separate

  Well, you need your storage system accessible on these IP addresses by the systems for the management of the other subnets or such? You already have all traffic from subnet inter between iSCSI and other networks? If this isn't the case, then there is no need to have routable iSCSI network.

  For the ESXi hosts themselves there is usually zero reason to have vmkernel iSCSI interfaces be routable since you already do management etc on another routable network (and responses of hosts would be sent there as well except if you define static routes custom).

• Should separate you network traffic and storage?

  To give some background, we use FCoE, and each server has 6 adapters. The way it was intended was 2 for network, storage 2 and 2 to the DMZ. The subject was brought on the use of network and storage 4 to increase the flow.

  Could someone point me to the best practices of the present or advice if they believe that it should be separate or combined?

  Thank you

  I always recommend using a disparate network for IP storage (or at least one VLAN unique), unless you have some really strong QoS that will ensure you packets of storage (as with something like a blade case). The problem is that storage is much more sensitive to latency as (most) network traffic, and contension could cause significant problems.

  http://blogs.VMware.com/Networking/2011/11/VDS-best-practices-.html

  IP storage traffic is via the ports of vmknic and this traffic varies with disk i/o requests. More data are transferred to configuration-to-end jumbo frame, with each Ethernet frame, reducing the number of images on the network. Plu framework reduced the load on the servers and targets and improves the performance of IP storage. Congested and low speed networks can cause latency issues that disrupt access to storage over IP. It is recommended to provide path at high speed for IP storage and avoid any congestion in the network infrastructure.

• Using Lr test, I managed to copy photos in the Catalogue and in development. Now, I want to use the photo developed/published as master and delete the original. So using the "modified" as the new source version. What is the process to do this?

  Using Lr test, I managed to copy photos in the Catalogue and in development. Now, I want to use the photo developed/published as master and delete the original. So using the "modified" as the new source version. What is the process to do this?

  This is to manually remove the master files. But are you sure you want to do this? Especially if these files are raw files? If you do, you throw a lot of precious image data. Remember that the main files are completely intact and in their original state at any time. The catalog stores all the changes that you make. But if you really want to delete your master files, you need just to delete them individually or as a group.

  Hello.

  In fact, it's a Japanese forum here.

  I'm sorry, English is not good for me...

  According to the reference,.

  DBMS_METADATA

  The description of the parameter called SEGMENT_ATTRIBUTES, it is written like this.

  > If TRUE , include clauses attributes segment in the DDL. If FALSE , omit them. Default value is TRUE .

  Before you SELECT it, it's OK if you run the following.

  exec DBMS_METADATA. SET_TRANSFORM_PARAM (DBMS_METADATA. False SESSION_TRANSFORM, 'SEGMENT_ATTRIBUTES',);

  I hope you find it informative.

• Hosts and storage of VDC.

  Hello.

  I'm trying the vCloud API v1.0 for details of a VCC of the vCloud Director. But I am struggling to find a way to bind the VCC with the host (physical machine) and storage it is associated. Can you get it someone please let me know if you know a way to find the host and the storage associated with a VCC?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  To get the relationship using vCloud API 1.0

  1. api/v1.0/admin/extension/providervdc/id - contains info on the hosts, data warehouses. the provider VDC also contains a link to get the references of vdc.

  2. api/v1.0/admin/providervdc/id/vdcReferences - that gives all the VCC references supported by this provider vdc.

  I hope this helps.

  With the help of vCloud API 1.5, query service contains all this information.

  Kind regards

• Random virtual machines after vMotion and Storage vMotion network loss

  Hi all -

  I have a couple of tickets open with VMware and our supplier of SAN, EqualLogic, on this issue.  Since the configuration of our production and DMZ clusters we noticed that the virtual machines will sometimes drop network connectivity after a successful vMotion and Storage vMotion.  Sometimes, although much less frequently, virtual machines also spontaneously lose network overnight.  What happened only a few times.  The strange thing is that the other guests on the VM host are fine - they lose any network.  Actually, I can do no more than 3 computers virtual host to another, and 2 of 3 can switch correctly, so that we lose the network.  The work around?  Simply 'disconnect' from the virtual NETWORK card 'reconnect' and the virtual machine will start the return packets.  I can also switch the VM troubled return to the host State and it will find the network.  I can it reboot and re - win network.  I can re - install the virtual card completely, and she re - win network.

  VMware has seen a lot of mistakes of SAN in our log files in order to update us our SAN firmware to the latest version.  That seems to have fixed that but we still have the issue.  Here are some of the specifications - all environments are virtually identical except for memory:

  Of PowerEdge R810

  NICs Broadcom 5709

  EqualLogic SAN running 5.0.5 F/W

  We use frames.  ESXi is fully patched.  I haven't seen a boss or not, it is only some guest operating system that loses the network, but we are a Windows environment.

  When a virtual machine loses the network, we can not:

  • Ping to it
    
  • Ping it
    
  • Ping him at the virtual machines on the same host or vSwitch
    
  • Ping outside our network
    
  • resolve DNS, etc..
    

  I followed some KBs VMware without success, including:

  http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1003839
  http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC & externalId = 1002811 (port security is not enabled)

  -All the VMware tools have been updated to the latest version correct and corresponds to the ESXi host
  -Connected to the service ESXi console, I cannot ping the VM problem by name of host or IP address, but I can ping do not affected by the issue of the OTHER virtual machines.  I can also pings the service console.
  -Connected to the troubled virtual machine itself, I cannot ping other virtual machines, I can't resolve host names, I cannot ping by IP.  The machine virtual CAN ping itself by IP, but not hostname.  I cannot ping other virtual computers on the same virtual switch or network by either IP or host name.  I can't ping the vSwitch network management.
  -All vSwitches are configured in the same way and the same.
  -Notify the switches is set to yes
  -There are a lot of available virtual ports
  -We tried the E1000 and VMXNET virtual cards with no difference.
  -All cards are configured to negotiate, but we tried to force individuals speeds as well as with no difference

  I appreciate your help.  I have problems getting anywhere on this issue with the sellers.

  Still having the issue...

  Sometimes, it might be useful to really check that all uplinks VMNIC for all VLAN does work them. Try this is to create a new portgroup on the vSwitch used by your virtual machines on the host of the first, put a test VM on the portgroup, then go into the NIC teaming policy from the new portgroup and select "Override switch command failover."

  Then down vmnic all except one in unused, then only a single VMNIC is active. Then set the portgroup VLAN to a production of VLAN and try to see if we could ping some expected from the different addresses. If it works, then move VMNIC work until unused and move up to another asset. Try again, and this for all the vmnic. If it works, then you have verified that the configuration of VLANS and other settings are correct on the physical switch in the face of this host ports.

  If several VLANs, repeat the process for all other productions VLAN. Then repeat on the other hosts.

  While that may take some time, occurs if everything is properly configured on the physical switches. When occurs a vMotion virtual machine gets a new "Port code" and is assigned to a new outgoing VMNIC. If there is an error of configuration on one or more physical ports that might seem random, but may still happen on VLAN x on y VMNIC. Given that Port ID policy you use indeed spread randomly VMs on the vmnic these problems may be difficult to diagnose. (Make a disconnection of the VM vNIC gives the virtual machine a new port-ID, which it will move to a new outgoing VMNIC, which might seem to solve the problem.)

  Hi Ron,

  I tried to do the script that you are looking for, but do not understand what you mean with "Name of the Runtime" and I do not know how to retrieve the version of the firmware. So I let these two.
