Change of opening session services in vmware virtualcenter management

Hi all

I'd like to find if it is possible to change the log on 'vmware virtualcenter management webservices' services in the vcenter Server?

It is currently under the domain administrator account, but I would like to change to a different domain account.

What domain option account can change?

Appreciate for your advice

Thank you

"Domain administrator" and "Enterprise administrator" are roles in Active Directory. It's not what I mean.

If you right-click on the object of vCenter (object at a higher level in the left pane) in the vSphere client and select 'add permission... '. ", you can assign the role of 'Administrator' of vSphere for a user or group for your entire vSphere environment.

  • Change the password for the Active Directory account that is running VMware VirtualCenter Server

    We have an ESXi5.5 environment and I was instructed to change the password of the Active Directory account is used to run the VMware VirtualCenter Server Service.

    There is a Data Source configured for a separate MS - SQL Server that is configured to use Windows authentication

    I find the Article KB KB VMware: changing the vCenter Server database user ID and password

    On the key: KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VMware, Inc., \VMware VirtualCenter\DB T HE for 2 and 3 values are empty

    It is not quite clear to me if the vpxd.exe Pei command is necessary for our environment (service AD account and Windows authentication) or if it is only if SQL authentication is defined on the Data Source - would anyone have experience with this change and be able to clarify for me?

    Thank you

    Yes you are right,

    but I would suggest to stop the services first before you do the activity, it can take the old password in a few times and lock the conduit to account

    2. once the password is updated, make sure that the login account is updated (is currently running services on the specified user account or local account?)

    If it runs using the specified account, you will need to updated and restart the services.

    3. make sure that the services are running fine and observe for a while, the user account must not get locked.

    Let me know if you have any other questions

  • Impossible to use Windows XP vmrun.exe to VMware VirtualCenter? -I get an unknown error

    Hello

    I have a question where I can't use vmrun.exe to control my virtual machines hosted on VMware VirtualCenter.

    First a few technical details of my system:

    My client is running Windows XP service Pack2, given MS powershell installed and the SDK Software VMware VIX.  I downloaded (with the default settings of IE 7) certificate of the host of the virtual machine and stored in my folder of C:\VMware-Certs named computer.cer. I also set the environment variable to include the path to the vmrun.exe file in the folder "C:\Program VMware VIX". Please note that all the components are the last versionssince, it has been downloaded and installed earlier this week.

    My host is running VMware VirtualCenter 2.5.0 build 119598 using the defaults (according to my owner of the network), which includes that it is running on port 443.I have checked using IE 7 to connect to the server and get the opportunity to see the Web page of the VMware Server. However, I think that the behavior of the Web page is a bit special. First he asked me for my personal certificate, that I don't have and I click OK. Can I get security warning of the server certificate, even if it has been downloaded, installed and the site is added to the "zone of confidence" in IE. And then ask my personal certificate, just click on the OK button. Then I get the javascript error: "line: 33 error:"ID_DownloadQuickStart' is undefined"and I click No to avoid debugging." Now, I get a page getting started with a list of chip two bullets and the text after the first point (the text is download VMware Infrastructure Client) and the second point is empty. (I get the links to the right, but also all copyright information in the footer).

    Previously, we used VMware workstation to host our virtual servers, but because the system is minibike we migrated to use VirtualCenterinstead. In this migration process, almost all the resources involved are new. When you use the old system with VMworkstation connections has been developed and tested by a colleague on another computer I use. Unfortunately, he left the company and his computer were recucled, so I can't test the orignial environment.

    Description of the problem:

    I open a command prompt to test my orders before calling them in my program compiled on my Windows XP computer. When I use the same structure of command as before, when we used VMware workstation, I'm changing the settings to point to the VirtualCenterand adds the specific server settings. I tried using commands such as runPorgamInGuest and hang, but the result, I'll be back is always "error: unknown error". For me, this error message does not provide information need to work with and I don't know if there is additional information saved anywhere else or if there is some debug log which can be activated.

    Since I am also VMware Infrastructure Client installed on the same PC I can check that there is not any question relating to the limitation of account. Two logs on my WinXP, the WMClient, the guest OS etc is using my personal journal. All computers involved are also located on the same domain. Since our account naming Convention is FirstName & lt; space & gt; LastName, I always add surrounding "to the newspaper information. The password itself contains letters, numbers and other characters, but all charaters are available on us-English keyboard and without spaces are used in the password.

    A classic test might look like this:

    C:\ & gt; "vmrun T - server h https://ip/SDK u" last domain\first "pwd Pei. suspending" [[SAN]] guestname/guestname.vmx.

    IP = the ip-adressof the VirtualCenter (I tried to use the name of the server, which I tried first, but some information that I found on the internet may indicate DNS issues so I went to use the ipadress)

    "last domain\first" = are the real account details used, framed by 'because it has a space in the name.

    pwd = the password for the account

    "guestname/guestname.vmx [[SAN]]" = it's the detailsretireved using the Infrastructure of the customer to get the name of the data store, this information is sent by "character. I also tried to add a supplement / on the front of the guestname so it looks like "[https://ip/SDK |]» http://communities.VMware.com/community-document-picker.jspa?communityID= & subject = SAN] [[SAN]] /guestname/guestname.vmx"since some information that I found on the internet are what I will post.

    OK, so what happens? Not much.. When I run the above command, I get the following response to my command prompt:

    Error: Unknown error

    And then even if my C: & gt; command prompt.

    It seems that everything I try to do I get this same error message. The only difference I get is when I cause the system to use server1 t instead of the Server - T parameter. Then, I get the following message instead:

    Error: The system returned an error. Communication with the virtual machine may be interrupted

    There is no details about this error that was returned. Yet once again, I'm stuck with a situation of Riddle.

    Please try tips here, I tried now so many options and not be able to move forward.

    Also make sure that you run ESX/ESXi 3.5u3 and your VM VMware Tools installed, these are the basic requirements for the use of VMware VIX vmrun

  • VMWare Update Manager Server does not work after changing name of host/IP

    I have Virtual Center 2.5 update 4 and Manager Update on two separate servers.

    I had to rename and change the IP of the Server Manager to update, and now the Server Update Manager does not work.

    Here are two mistakes that I get, when you try to activate the plugin Update Manager:

    "The server took too long to respond" or "VMWare Update manager cannot accept applications because VirtualCenter.

    Server is not reachable, or it's the database is not reachable

    by train to stop'

    That's what I did to change the host name:

    -J' uninstalled virtual UpdateManager 1.0 Clients Center customer.

    -I stopped the Service VMware Update Manager on the update server

    -J' I renamed the update server changed its IP address and the host name and then rebooted the server (without starting the VMware Update Manager Service)

    -J' changed the value of the fields

    dbo. VPX_EXT_CLIENT. URL

    dbo. VPX_EXT_SERVER.UR

    -in the vCenter (on the vCenter server) database reflecting the new name of the server (the new hostnameis to pings to the vCenter server)

    -J' restarted the vCenter Server

    -J' started the Service VMware Update Manager on the update server

    -J' installed the client plugin update manager Virtual Infrastructure client

    -J' have TRIED to activate the plugin, but I got a warning about an untrusted certificate (I guess it happened also when I installed the client for the first time, and everything worked) and then I got two errors:

    sometimes "the server has taken too much time to react" and a few other times "the VMWare Update manager cannot accept applications because VirtualCenter.

    Server is not reachable, or it's the database is not reachable

    by train to stop'

    I think that there are a few other references to the host name of the Update Manager, which I have not changed, on the vCenter server or Manager Update server...

    Does anyone have an idea what do I do?

    Thank you in advance.

    I would try just reinstalling the update on existing installation manager.  Do not overwrite the database in the process so that you shouldn't really lose anything.  Not the plugin, but since the Update Manager vCenter installation media.

    Give that a try and let us know how it goes.

  • 'service mgmt-vmware restart' in an installation script.

    Hello

    like many propably you do, I do 'service mgmt-vmware restart' in a script installation.

    I need this because I want to use vmware-vim-cmd ommands.

    When the mgmt-vmware restart 'service' is executed, the complete installation stops and is right there.

    When I do a "service mgmt-vmware restart' manully of a session SSH, no problems.

    When I do a "service mgmt-vmware restart' to a console session (HP Iloé) the problem becomes clearer.

    During the restart, the screen moves the "to open a session to the ESX Server...". Press ALT - F1 etc."- screen

    When I press ALT - F1 I re - enter my session again and see the result of the command "service mgmt-vmware restart '.

    But clearly it's killing my script because it cannot continue.

    Someone at - it ideas?

    BTW: ESX 3.5 U3

    Thank you and best regards,

    Other users I know orders vmkernel put in a file to run at startup and not during the kickstart himself.  Put all your commands in a script and have /etc/rc.local run at startup and then remove the rc.local.
