Change the path information for ESX ESXi hosts to access

Hello all! I hope you guys can help me.

I have about 47 hosts that I need to change it Round Robin storage path information. If I make the change in vCenter and restart the host it again changing fixed. So, I thought that I should change it to the level of the host through esxicli.

I have about twice as many LUNS of the Hitachi SAN. I'd like to see if it is possible to make the change in all areas, in some way, or I need to make the change by host? Also, is there anything that I need to change sides San so that it works or not.

I saw this VMware KB: modification of path information for ESX/ESXi hosts to access and assume that it is the best plan? But did not know of all put into custody, if necessary, that everyone ran to when doing this?

You will need to make the change by the host and the KB you'll find is the right method.

  • Changing the DNS server for ESX hosts?

    Our network administrator will change the IP address of the DNS server.  In this way, we will change those corresponding to ESX hosts.

    We would like to know

    (1) can we change the DNS server on execution of the ESX hosts without going into maintenance mode?

    (2) under what circumstances the ESX host will do use DNS servers?

    (3) memory, we should add all the IP addresses of ESX host in the hosts file in the Service Console, where is this hosts file located at?

    Thank you

    Tony,

    Use "service network restart" command to restart the network service

    Do not forget also that...

    Very dependent on DNS HA, HA will not work without the correct DNS configuration. The servers ESX and vCenter server must be able to resolve the name (FQDN full) / IPs in both feel to get a working HA.

  • Should we have the additional license for managing ESXi4 host?

    We have operated vSphere 4.0 hosts for a period of time.  We will implement ESX4i host in the near future.  We would like to confirm that we can use the existing vCenter Server for the management of the ESX4i host without additional costs.

    In addition, we currently Support Gold for ESX hosts, do we need to purchase additional ESXi support?  Is this host or CPU?

    Your opinion is requested.

    Thank you

    you have 2 licenses. (you can find them when you connect with the customer for the vcenter tab in admin, licenses)

    1 for the vcenter itself

    1 for esx/esxi hosts.

    So yes, if your license allows 12 processors and you have already used 10 cpu, you can add 1 host more (esx or esxi) with 2 cpu.

    When you delete an esx server, you can of course add another esxi host.

  • Change the default options for a NEW virtual machine in ESXI 5.1

    Hello

    I am looking for a solution change the 'default' options for a new virtual machine created in ESXI 5.1

    I want to have parameters such as 'cpu/memory HOT-add' default to enabled instead of disabled.

    There may be more options to change to a new virtual machine.

    All those who have an option to change the 'default' options for new virtual machines?

    THX

    You can change the/etc/vmware/config of vSphere host file and add the lines mem.hotadd = 'TRUE' and vcpu.hotadd = 'TRUE '.
    The settings then apply to any VM on this host when virtual machines are turned on...

    I just tried this on a 5.1 ESXi host and it seems to work perfectly...

  • Should the RAM for an ESXi host replaced the same ones remaining?

    Hello

    We are running a cluster of servers ESXi 5.1 - 2 of them are Xeon E7440 2.4 GHz (64 GB of RAM) and 1 of them is Xeon X 5460 3.16 GHz (32 GB of RAM).

    Currently, the use of the memory of all three ESXi hosts are about 60%.

    We will replace the Xeon X 5460 server with a new physical server.  We would like to ask for your opinion how much RAM you must order (my manager of door on the cost of the new server).

    Thank you

    Hi again Tony,

    1. No, it is not high at all. You should begin to worry about this, after reaching approximately 85-90%.
    2. My short experience with clusters of memory-unbalanced, adding that more memory would be a lot like the DRS manages memory locations & 'kindness host' in the right direction, but I'm not really sure how that would turn out in the long term. If you decide to present more memory to your server, it would be possible to upgrade the other two guests sooner than later
    3. Yes, ask the seller would be the right thing to do. Please note that you will need to put in place an enhanced vMotion to conform to your next "older" CPU then, because you'll have something other than X 5460. I guess you'll have to "intensify" a generation or two, depending on what you have found.
