• Using VMotion with 2 ESX and VCenter

  Hi all

  I just installed with ESX 2 VSphere and & VCenter. I can't use VMotion to migrate a virtual machine running one ESX towards each other.

  My setup is as follows:

  the iSCSI Software initiator.

  data store even shared by 2 facilitators.

  same conf network on the 2 hosts, none vlan used (set to 0):

  • vSwitch0 for the Service console, connected to the network of the company (vmnik0)

  • vSwitch1 for virtual machine network (connected to the company network vmnic1) and VMkernel (for vmotion, connected to the production network: san, vmnic2).

  Error displayed (at 10%): a general error occurred: the VMotion failed because the ESX host failed to connect to the VMotion network, please check your physical network configuration and settings network VMotion.

  vmnic2 on ESX1 is configured with 255.255.0.0 192.168.130.X mask and connected to eth0 on iSCSI SAN

  vmnic2 on ESX2 is configured with 255.255.0.0 192.168.131.X mask and connected to eth1 on iSCSI SAN

  Thanks for help

  Two VLAN different connection to the iSCSI SAN. You should have the same subnet, but a different IP addresses (if any) connecting to the San from each host (depends on the SAN)... For example 192.168.130.25 for ESX1 and 192.168.130.30 for ESX2. Unless your SAN network covers actually two subnets on your local network, you create a question where you don't need to. I would also use separate NETWORK card for vMotion traffic and another for iSCSI. Separate them VM traffic too (makes everything cleaner and less chance of collisions and too load performance causing one issues for each other. This is why it is a good idea to have at least four, if not six, physical NIC (or ports) within an ESX/ESXi server.

• Ping issues - Windows 2008 R2 and Hyper v2008

  Hello

  I'm looking for a few windows networking procedure of experts here to solve these 2 problems.

  I'm very good in Linux but not in windows, networks than some basics on windows of course.

  I installed Windows 2008 R2 and Hyper-v 2008 on two machines different level of "WORKING group" because I'm small laboratory

  I done the settting up the ip addresses static, of the hostname (s) on those computers.

  Windows 2008 R2 => 192.168.1.60 - obiee

  Hyper-v 2008 => 192.168.1.61 - hyperv2008

  I have DNS running on 192.168.1.10 server and my linux local dns host: narayana.local

  I can ping linux boxes ping, ping hyperv2008 obiee hostnames - works perfectly

  I have a few problems in the windows operating system

  (1) i cannot set my computer full qualified domain name say obiee.narayana.local, hyperv2008.narayana.local - it can be a low priority

  (2) i don't can't ping using host names of these 2 machines - priority issue, I get a message

  C:\Users\Administrators > ping hyperv2008

  Ping request could not find the hyperv2008 of the host. Please check the name and try again

  = I can ping IP_address - works perfectly =

  (3) in view of these questions I can't control my hyper-v to obiee machine.

• Store of data sharing between 4 ESX and ESXi 5

  Hello

  I have a vSphere environment 4.1 with a vCenter and a cluster of 3 ESX 4.1 access to the content of data through fiberchanel (type scneario) warehouses.

  And now I need to install a new ESXi 5.x (cannot be a different version) in a separate environment, outside of the current vCenter, BUT to access the warehouses of data even as the cluster of vSphere 4 current.

  Anyone know if there should be no problem sharing between 4 ESX and ESXi 5 access to the same data storage?

  Thanks in advance

  As long as the FC zoning is configured properly, avoid all the problems.   ESXi 5 will be able to see the data created by ESX4 VMFS3 stores, it will not be able to create the same size of virtual machine he can on a 5 VMFS datastore.

• Need a powercli script to create a new account a local administrator on all ESX and ESXi hosts in the vcenter

  Hi all

  If someone can help me with a powercli script to create a new account a local administrator on all ESX and ESXi hosts in the vcenter, create a role called admin and give all access except the root. This shoulb be past by a virtual centre.

  Very much appreciated to help him.

  Kind regards

  MelLvin

  I suspect that you posted your question to the wrong thread

  This requires only a minor change to the script above actually.

  Something like that

  $groupName = "group"$accountName = "user"$accountPswd = "password"$accountDescription = "A user"
  
  $esxlist = Get-VMHostforeach($esx in $esxlist){    Connect-VIServer -Server $esx -User root -Password "password"
  
      Try {      Get-VMHostAccount -Id $groupName -Group -ErrorAction Stop | Out-Null    }    Catch {      New-VMHostAccount -Id $groupName -GroupAccount | Out-Null    }
  
      $rootFolder = Get-Folder -Name ha-folder-root    Try{        $account = Get-VMHostAccount -Id $accountName -ErrorAction Stop |        Set-VMHostAccount -Password $accountPswd -Description $accountDescription -AssignGroups $groupName    }    Catch{        $account = New-VMHostAccount -Id $accountName -Password $accountPswd -Description $accountDescription -UserAccount -GrantShellAccess -AssignGroups $groupName    }

• Question: ESX and vShield

  Hello

  I am conducting a study on the safety in the vrtual environment and I have a question about VMWare Hypervisors.

  ESX and adjustable vShield upward on the same server cluster? They both will remain as hypervisors? because from what I've read, I've heard that ESX and vShield are hypervisors and vShield is only for reasons of security, while ESX is a more general hypervisor...

  Could you confirm or explain my mistakes?

  Thank you

  ESXi is the hypervisor - taking the material resources of a host and delivering them to virtual machines. vShield provides a layer of security to the virtual environment using virtual machines / devices that run on the computer host ESXi - hope this clears up it

• VMware Workstation and Hyper-V are not compatible. Remove the Hyper-V system role before running VMware Workstation

  Ouch. I just started to do some Win Phone 8 and development Win, and all simulators are needed for development.

  This means that a dev to Win8 may only work on their host... I'm sure it would work in a virtual machine.

  Can I make for happy? (Hyper V might have to win here... sigh).

  VMware Workstation and Hyper-V are not compatible. Remove the Hyper-V system role before running VMware Workstation

  Once you install the Hyper-V role on your host, your host is no longer running Windows 8 as the native operating system.  It runs Hyper-V as the native operating system, and Windows 8 runs as OS management within a privileged under Hyper-V VM.  With the Hyper-V role installed, * everything * runs in a virtual machine under Hyper-V.

  So to run a virtual machine under my computer in Windows 8 under Hyper-V, you must be able to run a nested VM.  It's possible with Hyper-V, the hypervisor host, but with the updates in custody, I mentioned above.

• Script - missing and hotfixes installed for ESX and ESXi

  Can I have the script i.e. missing and hotfixes installed for ESX and ESXi using the CLI power only? out put should be csv format

  You reset the content of the table $Results on each iteration of the baseline.

  Try like this

  $Results = @()
  foreach($esx in Get-VMHost) {
    foreach($baseline in (Get-Compliance -Entity $esx -Detailed | where {$_.Status -eq "NotCompliant"})){
      $Results += $baseline.CompliantPatches |    Select @{N="Host";E={$esx.Name}},    @{N="Status";E={"Compliant"}},    @{N="Baseline";E={$baseline.Baseline.Name}},Name,ReleaseDate,IdByVendor,    @{N="KB";E={(Select-String "(?http://[\w|\.|/]*\w{1})" -InputObject $_.Description).Matches[0].Groups['url'].Value}}
  
      $Results += $baseline.NotCompliantPatches |    Select @{N="Host";E={$esx.Name}},    @{N="Status";E={"NotCompliant"}},    @{N="Baseline";E={$baseline.Baseline.Name}},Name,ReleaseDate,IdByVendor,    @{N="KB";E={(Select-String "(?http://[\w|\.|/]*\w{1})" -InputObject $_.Description).Matches[0].Groups['url'].Value}}
    }
  }
  $Results
  

  It will give the installed and lack of patches which are defined in the non-compliant baslines related to the ESXi host.

  If you want to see all the lines, also the most consistent, omit the Where clause on the base line (foreach) loop.

• ESX and ESXi

  What are the fundamental differences between ESX and ESXi. Someone could it say please interview point of view. Just need about 4 to 5 differences.

  Thank you

  Prashant

  The difference between ESX and ESXi, ESX was the classic version with a dedicated Service console embarked with him, however, ESXi is the version of Vsphere without the Console service. Because ESXi is without the service console, so its size is very small and its called summer have footprint small disc. With the release of VSphere VMware 5.0 and later versions has deprecated the classic ESX version there is therefore no now unavailable ESX and we only ESXi now.

• Differences between ESX and ESXi

  Hai,

  As I am new to VI environment I doubt that where features ESX and ESXi are different, it may be stupid but can help me a lot.

  Hello

  Please check the link to the differences between ESX and ESXi below.

  http://www.VMware.com/products/vSphere/ESXi-and-ESX/compare.html

  Please note ESX is present in version 3.x, 4.x. starting vsphere 5.0, we have only ESXi.

  ESXi doesnot have a service console and has the smallest footprint of 70 MB and so is safer and more reliable, because it has a smaller surface set.

  Please allow points if you find the article useful.

  Thank you

• DRS cluster: You can mix 4.1 ESX and ESXi 4.1?

  Not very complext, but we have a DRS cluster of 8 hosts x 3850 of IBM on ESX 4.1 and we will upgrade them both to ESXi 4.1 update 1.  There will be questions mixing a cluster of ESX and ESXi servers?

  Yes, 100% supported!  both are the same hypervisor, so you should have no problem running in the same cluster.  After all it is the best way to do a upgrade spread, and how we made our move between ESX and ESXi.

• VMotion with ESX and ESXi in the same cluster.

  My client wants to spend his whole army ESX 4.0 to ESXi 4.1 host. I know that it requires a clean install of the host. But vMotion always works in a cluster with a mix of the host ESX 4.0 and ESXi 4.1?

  You will be fine to have a mixed group of ESX and ESXi hosts.
