Connect the Fusion 8Pro to ESXI 5.5

Hello

in my HomeLab, I had an old PC and a new Intel NUC the two 5.5 ESXI running (I want to replace the old PC with the NUC). When I connect to the old PC via Fusion 8Pro I can manage the system, create new virtual machines and see all available resources. When I connect to the NECK it asks me user name and password and connects but I see no information on the processor and the RAM usage I do not see the local data store on the NUC. When I connect to the NUC via vSphere Client on a Windows Client everything works fine.

Does anyone has an idea why it works with my old PC, but not with the NUC? Thanks in advance.

Hello again,

I managed to make it work yesterday in the evening. I tried many things, until - in my despair - I've updated the BIOS of the NECK to the latest version. Who did the trick.

Merry Christmas everyone.

  • Help, I changed the password of root ESXi via powerCli, now I can not connect with the web client or the console.

    Help, I've changed the root ESXi via powerCli password, now I can not connect with the web client or the console, but I can still connect to powerCli. The command I used was;

    SE connect-VIServer esxihostname-user root - password newpasswd

    This production network btw, I have connected to each host and run the above command, these ESXi hosts are not on a domain

    y at - it something I have left out. I really appreciate any assistance that you people can provide.

    Thank you, Joe

    It is probably a longshot, but a lot of things in the land of windows is not sensitive to capital letters as Unix is.  I wonder if your new password you put through powerCLI mixed uppercase in it and if the capitalization was abandoned by command windows powerCLI Analyzer, or he interpreted as all capitals or something.   If you can still get through the powerCLI you could try to reset the password again to something simple without capitalization mixed case and if your password on ESXi strategy requires a special character, try something different than a "$", like a "_" (I find that a '_' is less likely than some other special characters (, as a '-' or a ' / ' to cause problems with analyzers.).

    Edit:

    Another thing, you can try before playing with the password once again, is to create a different username ESXi using powerCLI and see if the password ends up what you think, it should be, and if you can get with the client vsphere using it.  In this way, you can find out if there are some problems with certain characters or Cap through command powerCLI Analyzer without losing your remaining root by powerCLI access.  After some tests, you can understand what went wrong with your initial password change and may be able to fix it with less risk of losing access.  I also assume that you can not create a new username on ESXi who is able to change the root password no matter what authority give you it, otherwise, you could create a new username with PowerCLI, then connect to the client vsphere with it and change the password to root from there.

  • The USB Dongel to ESXi 4.1 VM connection

    Hi all

    I have several virtual machines running on the ESXi 4.1 and one of the server VM is required to connect the USB Dongle and the software that is installed on it will work once it detects the USB dongle connected to it.

    Can you get it someone please tell me how to connect this USB Dongle Server esxi and any configuration required for the virtual machine that is present in that ESXi server can detect the Dongle and the software that is installed on it should work.

    Thanks in advance a ton.

    Concerning

    Riadh Gunnal

    We do this for several applications using Digi Anywhere USB http://www.digi.com/products/usb/anywhereusb#overview

    It is fairly simple to implement, but unfortunately it is only works for Windows boxes (that I know).

    Here is an article about setting up a virtual computer to use a USB device attached to the ESXi host http://www.virtualizationadmin.com/articles-tutorials/general-virtualization-articles/using-usb-devices-vmware-vsphere-41.html

    I hope this helps.

  • Access the SMB storage using esxi host and manage with MS server 2008

    Hi there, I know the subject line can be confusing, but I didn't know how to explain what I need in the line object in such a short sentence.

    in any case, I have a storage device SMB, a Promise VTrak M610P, which is attached to a blade server 1U HP through interface channels double Ultra 320 SCSI host. I can't configure the VTrak as a NFS, the only way to access logical drives is connected to a server via the scsi channels and using the operating system to share the drive and the shared disks.

    I would use a server blade with dual ultra 320 SCSI host interface channels and connect the VTrak to this server blade. Then I would install ESXI hypervisor OS 5.5 to this server blade. I want to know is if the ESXI operating system will recognize the logical drives and if I create a virtual machine with MS server 2008 and see if the virtual machine detects logical drives, so that I can share the drives? I hope that I'm supposed to and if I'm not, please let me know what makes no sense, I will do the best to explain it better.

    Thank you

    So it turns out that there seems to be something wrong with vClient when you add a hard disk (virtual disk) to a virtual machine of size greater than 4 TB. Article VMware KB: value of range error message when you add more than 4 TB capacity discs in vSphere Client describes this if you encounter this problem, add the hard drive via vSphere CLI, CLI power or vmkfstools. So this seems to be a known issue on vClient. What I ended up doing was using vClient, creation of hard disk, adding to the virtual machine (size of the hard drive is to 5.45) and when I would get the error message on the DiskCapControl out of reach, I would just click OK and then finalize the creation of the hard drive on the virtual machine. Once the process is complete, I selected the virtual machine and noticed that he indeed added a new HDD size 5.45 TB even if he's complained about it. I pulled to the top of the virtual machine with windows server 2008 R2 installed and was able to create a new disk under windows and set it up as a shared drive on the network. Looks like vClient must be updated by VMware and correct this bug, if it's a bug that I think. Thank you for the help vervoort!

  • Copy the ISO data store ESXi on VM

    Hello

    I'm quite new to virtualization and unable to understand the ways to copy the ISO file that is located on the data to a virtual computer store. Basically, I already installed ESXi and couple of Windows 2008 VM. Consider using one of this virtual machine as a server vCenter. Now, I have already downloaded from the VMware website and downloaded vCenter ISO to one of the data store.

    However, unable to work how can I copy the ISO to this virtual machine file so that I can install vCenter server? I have read a few things on the internet and tried to use WinSCP within the virtual machine using the IP host address, but I get "no connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.» the connection has failed. It is similarly after I activated the client FTP on ESXi host in the firewall. I am able to SSH (putty) to ESXi host with no problems.

    How can I get this to work? Y at - it a simple method that might work? Is WinSCP way to go? If so, why it wouldn't work? Note it is lab home environment and there is no other firewalls between the two.

    Thank you

  • New here - problem with the network on vSphere, ESXi

    Not sure if this is the right place to post this, please direct me properly if it is not.

    I use an eval of vSphere ESXi on a HP workstation. I built 2 Windows 2 k 8 VM 32 bits on the first data store. They can ping and DNS seems to be resolved, but they cannot access Internet/WWW.

    I accepted the default when installing ESXi and vSphere, so the configuration of the network is all that is by default (using the switch vNetwork, I think?)

    The 2 servers are on a different area of our production area. For this case, we'll call it consigment and Lab.com. "PDC" server is the domain controller, 'Exch8' is the exchange server in the lab. Exch8 has its pointed DNS, PDC and PDC has its DNS indicated on our DNS server in the environment of consigment. They are all on the same subnet 172.1.1.x

    I can ping PDC and Exch8 of my workstation (which is in consigment) by IP, but not name (pdc or pdc.lab.com, or work).

    Can someone at - it facilitate troubleshooting?

    Thank you

    OK finally try this out... It must be something to deal with the configuraiton of windows rather than dealing with VMware.I belive

    1. on the server you can navigate on the internet - see the proxy setting.

    See how proxy setting - open internet explore - switch to the option internet tool - connection tab click lan setting and get the configuraiton of proxy and put it in the PDC. Lab.com server and see if it works...

    2. also if you have installed antivirus tools on the server that you are not able to browse internet but able to ping... Uninstall AV and try...

  • connecting the new host of vmfs - what could go wrong?

    I just set up a new server ESXi 4.1, and I want to assign a logical unit number that contains a VMFS (v3.33) data store used by 4 ESXi 4.0 hosts.  I did this procedure several times before (no thanks to the combination of versions of the host, though), but I still get nervous.

    Is there a chance that something bad could happen to my data store when I connect the new host to it, or it's just my OCD Act?

    If you follow the above instructions to Dave, you have nothing to fear - if you take the right approach by being very careful with storage issues.

    Changes in versions should make no difference at all, as long as lon as all the ESX host attached to storage support the version of the data that store connect you.

    Good luck - and don't stress!

  • only 1 VM connects the other don't

    Hi guys

    a recently installed Vmware ESXi 4.1, 2 - Broadcom NIC cards

    Broadcom BCM5709C connected to a switch of Cisco ESW 540

    We have created 2 virtual machines, but only on the virtual computer connects to my network, we have tried and tried the same results, but as soon as I connect the physical cable to another switch I WSC2960G the other virtual machine connects to and bothVM are happy.

    any idea what should I check to the physical switch? or that I have any special physical configiration first switch - ESW-540 -.

    any idea what are we missing?

    BTW

    vSwitch0 = vmnic0

    = vmnic1 vswitch1

    Thank you very much

    Not really sure, as I am not networking of the MEC, however there is a setting on the physical switch port that prevents multiple MAC addresses to connect at the same time. I think that you must specify "mode access" ("adjustment" is s.th. like "desktop mode").

  • Need to connect the network adapter when the ethernet cable is not connected

    Hi all and thanks for reading.  I'm new to the both VMWare Fusion and new on Mac.  I have a new MacBook Pro, I bought a month ago.

    I have software that works only on PC and its license server is linked to the mac address of the NETWORK card.  I am implemented on bridged network mode I use the multiplicity to link the Virtual PC to my other PC and it seems the network mode that works best for this.

    I've set up to work with the virtual address of the NIC card and everything works fine.  The problem comes when I'm traveling and my Mac isn't difficult, connected to an ethernet connection.  When I start the merger, told me that 'the network bridge on/dev/vmnet0 unit does not work"and that she didn't connect the device virtual ethernet0.  Under the terms of the merger, I get this error whenever I try to force the card /virtual machine/network/will connect the network adapter.

    When I'm traveling or not hung, I need to get the virtual running NETWORK card so my license server will take place so that I can run my software.  Any ideas?  Any help is most appreciated!

    Thank you

    Mark

    Change the type of the bridged network to NAT and then start the virtual machine.
