close procedure, necessary maintenance mode?

Hello

We add the ram for the blades of our production. We will stop the running virtual machines.

I don't remember if I need to place the ESX host in maintenance mode before power off?

can anyone confirm?

It would be a good idea to set mode maintence first then the front blade power off memory upgrade

VCenter otherwise go see that a unexecpted by saying stop and a virtual machine could land on the blade during power off if you have some DRS will.

  • Maintenance mode to create query strings?

    Why should I switch to Maintenance Mode to create query string parameters?  I created query string parameters in the past and I have never been held to switch to maintenance mode.  If I go to activate maintenance mode, here is the message I get:

    Maintenance mode is currently DISABLED. Click on the button at the bottom of the page to activate the Maintenance Mode. With the Maintenance Mode on visitors register as not being on the Web site.

    Then... I guess I have to move fast while it is in maintenance mode, so I don't miss the important Web site visitors.  I just took an Eloqua University class on the web of profiling and of maintenance mode was not mentioned when creating query string parameters.

    Just wondering why this requirement has been added in order to create new query string settings?  I'm sure there is a good reason, but I was surprised by this today.

    Hi Vince,.

    Maintenance mode is necessary if you are generating a high volume of web traffic. When the volume of Internet traffic is low, the system is able to create the settings while continuing to capture relevant data provided by all. If the traffic volume is high, the system cannot create additional "fields" in the database at the same time perform all write-queries that generate your visitors. In addition, when the new channels/parameters sets query are created, the system must comb all existing data to find these settings in one of the existing data, so if clickstream data is generated more quickly that the script can work through the data, it would cause a problem.

    So yes, it is possible that sometimes maintenance mode will be needed, and other times not. If necessary, its best to activate only for very short periods of time, as Yes, all incoming data in maintenance mode is ignored.

  • Maintenance mode that is required to scan?

    Our best practices has always been to put the hosts in maintenance first mode, and then analyze the updates with the Update Manager. We seek to implement scheduled scans, and the only thing stopping us is our practice of the mode of maintenance in advance. Is this necessary? Or are we able to scan hosts for production with active virtual machines safely?

    Yes, you can scan the hosts while they have running VMs. Maintenance mode is not necessary for this.

  • Maintenance mode migrates virtual machines only from GUI

    We have 6 * 5.1 with configured ESXi HA, DRS and a 5.1 Vcenter.

    If we put an ESXi in maintenance mode through the user interface of Vcenter all virtual machines will be to migrate to other hosts, there is no problem at all.

    But if we put the same through VMA host in maintenance mode, virtual machines will suspend mode and the host goes into maintenance mode. On the GUI in Vcenter we get a message that a migration will not work in the current state. Due to the fact that the message is in German, there's not so much sence to post it here, I guess.

    Background is, we have two or three guests time in different places. Two locations in separate buildings, with separate power supply and separate UDP for this purpose.

    So if a location powerd down the udp Protocol must stop the hosts in this place and the virtual machines have to migrate over.

    SVMotion is not necessary, the SAN is a unit of mirroring automatc.

    Please take a look at Re: scripted Maintenance Mode to see if that helps.

  • Question on maintenance mode

    I was going to put a host in maintenance mode and then stop it.  It has a few models and virtual computers, but nothing works.  When I choose to spend in maintenance mode, it offers the possibility to "evacuate power off" VMs.  Do I need to do?  These virtual machines are not necessary today, once I have finished, I want to feed them back to the top.  I want to leave them on the host, if I can, but I don't want to lose them.

    you do not have to evacuate the powere doff Vms - they will be there when you go back to the host.

  • question of maintenance mode

    I need to close my clusters 2 and VM running under them.  I put the host in Maintenance mode before closing them? I think to close all VM and then stop host.  any advice would be appreciated.

    If I disable the HA and then shut down the virtual machine, then how it will work when I put them online after an upgrade? These virtual machines will register on a single host when they were closed? thnx

    Yes, the virtual machine if they are turned off on your host, once the upgrade has completed, put simply all VM under tension and then reactivate HA in the cluster.

  • SX20 running in maintenance mode

    Hello everyone,

    I have a problem with my camera of telepresence SX20 (TC6).

    It runs in mode of maintenance for 2 days.

    No one has changed nothing.

    Do you know how to fix it please?

    Have you tried to do a reboot? This could be the silver bullet that works in 90% of cases.

    The maintenance mode starts if the system crashed for some reason any and without

    interaction, that he would stay like that.

    If you restart the system, and it starts again at the maintenance mode, please try to do a reset to factory default.

    Please remember useful frequency responses and identify useful or correct answers.

  • DELL Dimension XPS T800r CMOS Maintenance Mode worries...

    Greetings, good people of the world of DELL!

    I'm working on a desktop DELL Dimension XPS T800r for a neighbor.

    The original complaint: no video

    Some things have changed since yesterday when I worked on it, then read on...

    Here's what I've done so far in order:

    (855) 935-7526 *. Exchanged video from a well-known donor cards.  No change.

    2. the DIAGNOSTIC LEDS on the back panel has found.

    3 DIAGNOSTIC LIGHTS remain DARK during the start attempt.

    4. consultation documentation DELL for LIGHT codes DIAGNOSTIC.

    5. the code is: All the DARK - turns on by default.

    6. again consulted the DELL documentation to identify what to do:

    (a) reinstall microprocessor

    (b) remove all the expansion cards

    7. After you do both.  No change.

    8 using the prior computer knowledge, I pulled ALL of the motherboard except the feeding fittings and connections on the front panel.  I unplugged all connectors power hard drive as well.  I left only the CPU fan connected to the motherboard.  I checked the power supply against DELL standards and all is good.

    9. now, knowing the CMOS batteries, I checked the voltage on board.  He was 3.1VDC.  Seems good.  I didn't want to remove it, so in order to make sure it's properly plugged in, I turned the battery making to create a better connection.  That's where things have changed since yesterday...

    10 leave the BARE Board, I plugged it in to the power supply.  Silence.  Only the yellow led on the motherboard lit up.

    11. I installed the CPU and VIOLA!, LIGHTS flash YELLOW for a second DIAGNOSIS, and both fans turn quickly upward, then will stop altogether.  The yellow led on the motherboard remains on.

    12 DELL documentation contains this code to represent: card system is powered,
    but the BIOS is not executed.

    13. I think turn battery CMOS created a better connection (the computer IS almost 16 years old) giving me a response to market now.

    14. I tried to reinstall everything and document what happens after turning the power on.  Nothing changes beyond this point.  LIGHTS DIAGNOSTIC flash YELLOW briefly, and the power supply and fan rotation CPU for a second, then stop.

    15 DELL documentation suggests putting the system in MAINTENANCE MODE by the CMOS jumper

    This computer is almost 16 years old, and very probably, the owner has not saved the BIOS settings.

    This is what is installed, before the Panel:

    A CD-ROM drive

    An IOMEGA Zip drive

    A floppy drive

    Now to the question:

    Since I have no way to backup or recover the CMOS settings, I hesitate to put the jumper to MAINTENANCE MODE to see if the computer will boot all the way to the top.  I'm not potentially make the computer unusable in maintenance or replacing the battery mode, even though I would replace the battery because of the line due to age.

    The DELL documentation:

    NOTICE: Pass by the maintenance mode returns all settings in the
    Installer system to their default values. Dell highly recommends
    that you save or print the current settings before entering in this
    mode, so you can fix them when the system is reset to normal
    mode.

    What do you think will happen if I reset the default BIOS by moving the jumper and replacing the battery?

    I will cause a catastrophic failure?

    Now, the other side of the coin is that the system is relatively basic, so I have to enter the starting sequences and other isn't a big deal.  I hope...

    At worst, I'll have to use a drive caddy to retrieve its data from the hard drive.

    Thanks in advance for all your help and support!

    In case it helps someone, re-seats maps microprocessor and expansion got the computer fully functional again.  I guess that for a computer in 16 years, the tabs or oxidize some and created resistance which forbade the computer recognition and power.  It works fine now.

  • Maintenance mode vcenter 6 active cluster Ha

    Hello

    I have a cluster 6 version which consist of version 6 of 5 host, but when I put my hosts in Maintenance mode, it blocks just task to 2%, not had the license for DTH.

    My config HA is turn off: power of VM allow operations that violate constraints of availability.

    My vmotion works because if I move-vm by powercli, it works correctly.

    Why HA mode do not move vm other hosts

    Thank you

    To do this, you need DRS. HA will just restart VMs in case a physical host fails, but it won't live vMotion migrate virtual machines when you put a host into maintenance mode.

    You must manually migrate all the virtual machines in this host if you put it in maintenance mode.

  • Host profile in vSphere 6 - requirements of Maintenance Mode

    I was instructed to check the profiles of the vSphere host 6.  The main reason why we don't use them in our environment v5.5 is because when you apply the profile of the host a host to perform a restoration, regardless of change in a significant way, there must be a maintenance of the host mode.  This poses an administrative challenge in my environment.

    So, I have been instructed to read that vSphere 6 had updated Host Profiles to demand maintenance mode only if required by the properties defined by the profile of specified host.  I think OK, now trivial changes like adding that a group of ports for a vSwitch will not require the host to be maintenance mode trying to "clean up" the host with a profile of the host that makes this type of low level change.  Unfortunately, I still get the error "host must be in before maintenance mode a host profile can be applied to him" whenever I try to apply a profile of the host to a host that is in non-compliance, no matter how tiny change.

    Everyone knows this?  I have something misconfigured?

    vSphere 6: updates to Host Profiles - VMware vSphere Blog - VMware Blogs

    OK I thought about it.  This new feature to Host Profiles fact exist, but it only exists in the Web Client vSphere.  The vSphere client c# don't has not been updated to behave this way, it always requires a host to be in the mode of maintenance for all corrections.

    Time to start using the web client more.  = S
