• How to use PowerCLI to change the connection of network of 60 virtual machines

  Hello

  I have several virtual machines of XenDesktop with similar names and currently the same network, but I want to be on a different network. Here are the details:

  For my virtual machines, appointed XD-W7-01 by XD-W7-60, on 1 network adapter, they are all currently on 'Network VDI of Xen Production' for their connection network. I want that they all be changed to 'network of VDI Xen Test '. can you give me the script to make an and I can certainly understand the rest. Thank you very much in advance.

  Hello, MarchTheMonth-

  Welcome to the communities.

  You can do this quite easily by using the cmdlet Set-NetworkAdapter , as:

  ## for one VMGet-VM XD-W7-01 | Get-NetworkAdapter -Name "Network adapter 1" | Set-NetworkAdapter -NetworkName "Xen Test VDI Network" -WhatIf
  

  (remove the '-WhatIf "do actually change).  So, for all the machines of sixty, it would be something like:

  ## for all of 1-60Get-VM (1..60 | %{"XD-W7-{0:d2}" -f $_}) | Get-NetworkAdapter -Name "Network adapter 1" | Set-NetworkAdapter -NetworkName "Xen Test VDI Network" -WhatIf
  

  Yet once you take off the coast of the - WhatIf to change.  What to do for you?

• How to add several records of existing virtual machines

  Is it possible to add several drives in one shot to a virtual machine?

  I know it's possible with the new - vm cmdlet, and if I manually modify the virtual machine, I can add as much as I want.

  The cmdlet New-hard drive allows only 1 at a time, I can say.

  Any suggestions?

  You are right, that the cmdlet New - hard drive allows the addition of 1 HDD at the time.

  If you want to add several hard disks, you will need to use the ReconfigVM_Task method.

• Support ESXi 5.0 host FC connected tape drives in the virtual machine running symantec backup exec 2012

  Dear Experts,

  We recently purchased C0H19A: StoreEver HP 1/8 G2 6 - LTO Ultrium 6250 CF TapeAutoloader. The purpose is to backup of VMS data, I mean selected data in virtual machines, as for the exchange of data bases email for server accounts database SQL server etc.. We have a full VM backup plan, so using symantec backup exec software.

  We have this configuration:

  -TWO DL 380 Gen8 servers (running UPDATE2 Esxi 5.0), both servers have not all SCSI ports

  -One SINGLE HP P2000 G2 MSA FC Dual Cntrl storage

  -TWO HP SN6000 12 - pt Windows Pwr FC switch

  -HP ADF

  All them above are related to the CF. Symantec backup exec 2012 is also installed on Windows 2008 R2, which is a virtual machine.

  But now, we are unable to see the tape library autoloader through the virtualization layer in the device of machine Manager virtual backup exec. Reading on internet, I also found some details that connected FC tape drives are not supported by the Esxi hosts. We are really stuck in this situation, all the solutions to this. I also read the article from vmware saying configuration for Esxi 4.0 FC tape drives and later versions

  Installation of a physical server windows with Backup Exec 2012 and HBA and connected to above switches FC is the only way to see the ADF? Even after reading articles on the internet, I'm not clear, please guide what solution I have now to get this thing going, I really need to find solution to this.

  Waiting for answers.

  Kind regards

  Hello, I'm a Backup Exec support engineer and yes the method supported is only by connecting the tape drive to a server of physical media. See the introduction in the Backup Exec HCL on Configurations of http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH175582 and http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH146293 alternative

• several large files on Virtual Machines

  I checked my drive with OmniDiskSweeper space today and saw that virtual machines takes a huge part of my (about 11 GB) disk space. Windows 7 x64.vmwarevm I find several files named Windows 7 x 64-s, followed by a long number of three digits (s001 s005 and s016). Each of them is 2 GB.

  Are these duplicates? If so, are they safe to delete?

  In my Finder window, it appears as a large file of 12 GB

  Thank you!

  Absolutely not!  Do not delete these files!  Also I strongly suggest that you stay out of the packaging of the Virtual Machine unless you really know what you are doing!   If you want to free up disk space then turn off AutoProtect, if it is turned on and then delete all the snapshots then Clean Up a virtual hard drive.

• LUNS shared between virtual machines? How?

  Hello..

  I shared LUN for ESXi host and now I want to have a shared LUN for my VMs too how can I do?

  Logic unit number that I want to do shared is already shared between my esx hos, can now do the same LUNS shared between my VMs? Is this possible?

  Tring to use RDMS, but when I assign shared my LUN shared for ESX host so not able to assign the same to another virtual computer that is located on another host ESX ESX LUN to my VM, its goingfrom

  Any idea?

  Thank you

  Once you have assigned to a virtual machine the RDM will be disppear. However as a virtual mode, there is a hard pointer created in the data store. then go on host2 make sure he has access to the LUN, and then add the pointer hard on the virtual computer via the existing disk option.

• Stop several hosts and the virtual machine on the host computers

  Sorry to bother the community again. Right now I have a script that stop or suspend virtual machines on a host in order using an external file to store the order (with the help of lamw). The plan is for the script to reside in a virtual centre with multiple hosts. The script must be able to stop the vm on the host, the closure of the host (to be ordered the same idea with the external file), then jump to the next host and continue the same process. I tried to create nested for loops this task, but it doesn't seem to work. Any help would be appreciated. I have attached the script. Thanks in advance

  I think you try to only syspend or stop each VM and then stop the host.

  This code might help.

• How to configure rdm to use iscsi lun in a virtual machine using ms iscsi initiator?

  I have equallogic SAN attached to a cisco 3750

  switch. It comes to our storage network.

  Within the virtual machine for all readers of data other than my c:\ that has the operating system I would use iscsi data switch that has 4 network ports on four different nic cards already assigned.

  According to what I read a virtual machine can use only 4 nic so I have a Production network the other three that I would

  Use it for iSCSI data.

  Three ports of each virtual computer network for using ms iscsi with MPIO

  initiator.

  I have already attached the RDM using esxi 3.5 as a physical mapping of RDM.

  My question is how to configure the ports of the network adapter in the virtual machine?

  The VM network is on 172.19.2. * where iscsi is on 172.19.21. *.

  What would be the entrance on the network adapters in the virtual machine that is running ms win 2 k 3 r2 x 64.

  Thank you.

• Connect a virtual machine to a new host

  I have 2 servers ESX (vSphere 4.0) and a Dell / EMC CX4-120 SAN.

  My 10 virtual machines are all located on the SAN within different LUNS and data warehouses.

  One of my ESX servers failed and 1 VM is still connected to it, because it has not migrated during the blackout.

  How can I reinstall this virtual machine to the host of work ESX Server 2 and turn on again?

  Hello

  First of all, certify if this virtual machine is turned off.

  If this virtual machine is turned on, try closed with command line - http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1004340

  and if the other host see all LUNS where this virtual machine have all disks, you can do:

  Click on desired host

  Configuration

  storage

  Browse DTX200

  Right-click in the VMX

  Add to the inventory

  PowerOn.

  Good luck

• Move a virtual machine that has a raw lun mapped to SAN

  Dear all,

  I need expert advice for this case. I have a virtual machine on a host with esxi 4.0, but due to many machines same virtual host we are experiencing memory problems and have decided to move this virtual machine to another host with less VM and less use of resources.

  I plan 1 HR time to perform this task, this virtual machine have two drives one windows partition and the second 20 GB as mapped lun on SAN. So when you move it to another host, what I'll do is tap to stop the virtual machine, go to another host and storage switch to VM folder and add the VM.vmx file to add it to the inventory of the new host. What about the case of raw LUN mapped, how to take care of it.

  Please advise, it is little urgent.

  Thank you

  I guess there is no vCenter at stake here and you have no option for vMotion? The RDM, I would like to stop the virtual machine, detach the RDM LUN, migrating the virtual machine and re - attach the RDM.  As long as the two hosts can see SAN/RDM, you should be good with that.

• Connect to virtual machines across multiple servers of connection for internal/external access

  Hello everyone

  My apologies if this is a silly question, but is it possible to have an individual virtual machine or pool accessible through multiple connection servers? Here is my setup and my scenario:

  Connection to server 1 - direct connect active, PCoIP, serving internal users.

  Connection to Server 2 - live disabled connect, RDP, coupled with a security server, serving external users.

  We seek to deploy Wyse PocketCloud on Wireless / 3G iPad so support for users outside the campus of the hospital can access their desktop.  Users will be expected to have office in the same condition as when they were on campus.  Our doctors are attracted to the iPad, then this will be a test for future deployment phase.

  VMS users are controlled by cs 1.  I would like that the possibility for users to directly connect to their virtual machines using PCoIP when they are internal and RDP via security server when they are external.  Is it possible without using a VPN or live with disabilities on cs connect 1?  I tried to add a virtual machine that has already been setup on cs 1 CS 2 but once cs 2 picks up I can connect is no longer the virtual machine through cs 1. Servers will also relay the reconfigure virtual computer every minute, so this is not the right way to do this.  Someone had customers or users who wanted to make something similar to this?  If so, how did you manage?

  Thanks in advance for your comments

  View what version are you running?  In later versions, you can set directly relate to the level of the server.  So now you can simply deploy a replica of your main connection server that runs Live mode while having your other login server in indirect.   This way you can have a view environment and run your desired configuration.

• Take a snapshot of a lun SAN: How do I disassemble the virtual machine?

  SAN is FC 9958E Hitachi, ESX 3.5 update 2.

  I try to take a snapshot of a lun (with a virtual machine in this regard) san and must turn off the virtual machine and disassemble the VMFS virtual machine so I can do that there is no I/O will the lun when I take the snapshot.

  How can I (of) a virtual machine of the VMFS without making the other virtual machines running in the same cluster? I know that the VMFS is a system of shared files grouped campaigns, exclusive property of vmware. Does anyone know the command to use?

  If anyone has any info on this subject, it would be great.

  This is the documentation is 1.5 ESX, released in 2002.

  The command no longer exists in recent versions.

• Network problem in the virtual machines on the same switch

  Hello

  I'm stuck on a problem with my small network.  I have an ESXi 5 host that hosts around 10 virtual machines.  The last two machines I install recently displayed an unexpected behavior.  I can't do a ping between the two machines or in those 2 VMS to anywhere else in the same subnet or other networks.  These two VMS, I am able to ping and have network connectivity.  Two of these virtual machines reside on the same vSwitch and belong to the same group of port as other machines.

  The configuration of these two VMs appears to be identical to all other virtual machines that work properly.  The two guest virtual machines running Windows Server 2008 R2.

  So far, I tried several static IP and DHCP assignments with the same effect.  (Including spend another virtual machine a static IP at work known to one of the computers virtual problem)  I tried to delete and re-create one of the virtual machines completely.  I also did an upgrade from 5.0 to 5.1 for vCenter, ESXi host and virtual machines, and I am always observing the same behavior.

  Any advice on what to check next would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

  I assumed that you have checked the windows firewall? Because they block default ping...
