• Convert a physical Wins Server in a virtual machine for redundancy

  Hello world

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  We have just set up an emergency operations center and run thrus by an optical fiber (so, technically, it's the same network but with some redundant internet). And we would like to set up the servers to replicate all the production servers (wins, sql, apps... etc) at end of failover/redundancy. The best is to reproduce in live all the time... but less than a number of days can be very well. If something happens, systems can be "reactive" or better proactively kicks in.

  Running on SAN cluster could be a solution... but we cannot have enough $ to build a San now.

  I would like to ask if VMWare provide all product that can take a snapshot or perform replication from all Wins servers to a virtual machine by a calendar environment. I think that virtual machine, because we don't have to buy new hardware while double set.

  Vcenter is for this?

  Any suggestion would be great.

  Thank you very much.

  Software double-take doues not need to be run on a cluster - it can be physical or virtual, and yes it can replicate a server on a virtual machine - vmware converter will allow you to P2v physical machine, but it will be a manual process.

• "The session is not authenticated" when you try to convert it to VMWare Infrastructure Server computer machine

  The image was a Linux P2V conversion... I didn't have my ESXi server on the same network, so I just used the Converter 3.0.3 Startup disk to create my virtual image (RHEL 4), and now I'm trying to use the 4 converter to convert the image from the server to the ESXi server.  When I do a "convert", I select 'VMware Workstation or another VMware virtual machine', browse my virtual machine's .vmx file.  In the next screen, I select "Virtual Machine of VMware Infrastructure" in the menu drop down and put my server, including the password information in the boxes below.  I click Next and that works fine, it connects.  From there on, I leave all the default settings and click Next... immedietely at the top of the window, I get "the session is not authenticated.   I did not find anything about it either with the search function, apologize me if I missed something.  Someone else encountered this?

  This happened to me when the time updated Inbox ESXi causing a shift in the session information on the host computer, which I was trying to convert.

  The fix was to bounce the agent converter on the server you are trying to convert.  For me all right.

• Conversion of physical server into a virtual machine

  Hello

  I would like to take a physical server and convert it to a virtual machine on the same box.  I'm new to VMs, so please tell me if this is possible and if yes, what is the best way to do it. Right now, I think these are the basic steps:

  (1) take operating system image current (2003 Server STD) using Acronis.

  (2) wipe server and install ESXi 4.

  (3) use the free VMware Converter to convert the Acronis image to a guest VM on the ESXi host.

  Will this work? Am I missing something? The traps that I should look out for?

  A few questions more to go with this:

  -J' currently have an ESXi 3.5 on a desktop host. Wouldn't be better to convert this machine on the fly to a guest on this 3.5 host, then move the guest to the new 4.0 host once it is ready?

  -This server is now an application server and has a few databases, such as WSUS and Kaspersky Administration kit and maybe something else I can't think right now. Is that causing trouble with the DBs in the transition from the physical to the virtual?

  -The machine has also acts as a file server and is connected to our iSCSI SAN. Will be a problem or I would be able to remap the LUN to the virtual machine quite easily just like I did to the physical machine?

  Sorry for the long post. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

  As long as you can take decisions associated with the image with Acronis and then convert it to a virtual machine, I think this is a good approach.  You can convert the server in a virtual machine running on your ESXi 3.5 environment but I would not run a server database production on class workstation hardware.  The performance would be probably pretty bad if you had a large number of users hitting that database.  As for using Acronis I know that it is supported but in the past I have never tried to convert an Acronis image for a virtual computer by using converter.

  The databases themselves should not have any problem on a virtual machine.  SQL runs in a virtual machine and saw complex databases even accomplish a lot.

  Reconnect to your iSCSI SAN shouldn't be a problem either.  You must ensure that the networking on the newly built 4 ESX host is configured to allow you access to all the VLANS required (iSCSI VLANS, server VLAN, etc.).  It is an important step to ensure that you have right or you will not be able to reinstall your iSCSI LUNS, once the server is converted.  Once the networking is configured the process of reconnecting to the iSCSI LUN from inside your virtual machine is the same as if it was physical.

  Good luck!

• I can't convert the redhat 5.3 Server xen

  Hey Vmware,

  I tried three version of vmware converter (4.3, 5.5, and 6.0)

  There is no one can only work on redhat 5.3.

  After I insert all the connection information to the converter, converter returns an error for me

  'Cannot query the live linux source machine'

  Could someone give me some advice? Thank you very much.

  I searched the problem on google and tried all the solution.

  1. my source server can ssh with root.

  2 echo "ALL: ALL" > > /etc/hosts.allow I added this command to hosts.allow.

  3. what an interface on the server (eth0)

  Please do not hesitate to ask if you need more information.

  Problem solved.

  The cause is my server source is no more free space here and the df command does not work on the server.

  The converter cannot determine the source server hard disk information.

  Then the error will be fate.

  After I free up space on the server. It works perfectly now.

  Hi KissTobor,

  I solved my problem, but it was different in my case.

  Thanks for trying to help me.

• Impossible to allocate additional processors (virtual machine has 8 virtual processors, but the host only supports 4)

  Dear team,

  I want to devote 8 vcpu to one of the virtual machine, but it gives following error

  "Virtual Machine has 8 virtual processors, but the host supports only 4. The number of virtual processors can be limited by the selected guest OS for the virtual machine or the granting of licenses for the host".

  want to know the weather, that it depends on the os under license or guest vm

  

  Hello

  It is the restriction of license. 4-way vSMP is the right thing, you stressed in your screenshot.

  If you upgrade your server and license to vSphere 5, you can allocate 8 vCPU with Standard license and 32 vCPU with your license of the company!

• A virtual machine has connectivity problems

  Hello

  I have a server ESXi 4.1 on it with three virtual machines.  For purposes of discussion, I'll call them VM1 and VM2, VM3.  They are all on the same ESX switch.

  This server has a financial application on VM1 and this configuration worked well for about a year.  Then, all of a sudden this week after users began to have popups while their financial applications, say things like other tables running could not access or that they could not communicate with SQL Server, etc. As far as I know, nothing new got installed, etc. this week on this server.

  I discovered that when I PING another post from work or another physical server for VM1, it loses a lot of PING packages.  There could be 20 consecutive PING responds and then five PINGs that do not meet but no defined trend.  However, when I PING VM2 and VM3 from these other workstations or other servers, they have no problems with PING.  I did PING extended for 10 to 15 minutes and only VM1 continues to have problems with PINGs.  It is not only a problem of PING as users are getting disconnected from their financial app and I can't connect to VM1 using RDP, etc.when happening.  Then, no doubt VM1 connectivity is lost intermittently.

  When I PING the VM2, VM3 to VM1, no PINGs are lost.

  The physical server that hosts ESXi 4.1 has two network adapters integrated but alone is used now.  Thus, all virtual machines are physically connected to the local network through a NIC

  We have a new Ethernet switch so I temporarily moved the LAN cable connected to the ESXi server to a port on the switch again and looks that much worse.  And again single VM1 lost PINGs.  VM3 and VM2 were very good.  I put the LAN cable to the original switch port and it seems that it is better but worse that before install me the LAN cable.

  If anyone can give me advice on how to solve this problem, I would appreciate it a lot.

  Thank you very much for your help.

  Off you first need to understand what is happening... You need to isolate what is a VMWARE problem, a server or network problem.

  I would start by ping from machine VM-virtual... In this way you take all opportunities that all physical connections are stop things from work.

  NM, you have already done this... Its good

  Which means that ICMP queries are good in the VSwitch. Internal network traffic so can't see any problems.

  So the problem is most likely will lie about how your traffic destined to this server is routed to this server.

  I would start by

  DNS. Check and see that your DNS is working properly and that all your zones are registered. Flush DNS on servers and workstations.

  Also try to reconfigure the VMswitch or linking this server for the spare VMnic if you can to see if it clears up your problem. Also try turning off the firewall as mentioned above...

  But first of all to identify the problem and were breaking is Lyon. Good luck

• Convert a physical box 2003 Server vm and the VM is extremely slow. Trying to connect again...

  Convert a physical box 2003 Server vm and the VM is extremely slow. Trying to connect again...

  This is my first time converting a physical box to virtual. This is Server 2003. The conversion took place and I try to connect to the box now but it's so slow. Currently, he sat to apply personal settings for almost 10 minutes.

  My boss has converted physical to virtual several times before and never said that he ran into something like this.

  Am I missing something? Any suggestions?

  I think that it is always looking for active directory. the newly P2V'ed will operate all IP settings. Therefore, you will need to wait until it has expired, and then enter the IP that is (ip, dns and etc.) above. the other way to speed things up would be to disconnect your network and the thing that your OS to expired immediately.

• vCenter Server 4 as virtual machine by vSphere, ESX4 host

  Hello

  I would like to ask if anyone has tried to do.

  I create a virtual machine to run my vCenter Server 4 under a new brand, vSphere, ESX4, armed with other VM.

  My question is, can I use vCenter Server 4 and the same vSphere, ESX4 host where the vCenter Server 4 is be managed host?  Is this possible.

  I did this, but in the ESX and vcenter 4 installation guide his page 16 of the document makes it clear that: "the vCenter Server system is a physical machine or the virtual machine with access to a database taken in charge. The vCenter Server system must meet specific requirements. Also, make sure that the vSphere Client machines meet the hardware requirements. »

  Here is the link to the document: http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vsphere4/r40/vsp_40_esx_vc_installation_guide.pdf

  But if you plan to do that you have to ensure three points (shown in this link: http://www.vladan.fr/three-main-reasons-to-run-virtual-center-server-as-a-virtual-machine/):

  1. Disable DRS (level of automation of change!) for your VirtualCenter VM and make sure the document where the VirtualCenter Server (my suggestion would be the first area of ESX)

  2. Enable HA for the VirtualCenter server and set the boot at high priority

  3. Make sure the VirtualCenter server gets sufficient resources by defining actions

  There is also another useful post that describes the advantages of the virtual centre running as a virtual machine:

• Virtual machine has 8 virtual processors, but the host only supports 4... ?

  Hello

  My setup is a VSphere cluster with 4 guests each with:

  E5450 3.00 Ghz Dual Xeon Quad & 32 GB of Ram.

  I run a number of virtual machines, mainly Windows 2003 Server Enterprise. Most of them is running on 2 or 4 virtual processors.

  I tried to create a new virtual machine with virtual cpu 6 or 8 and 16 GB of ram. When I tried to turn on the virtual machine, I got the message below:

  Virtual machine has 8 virtual processors, but the host supports only 4. The number of virtual processors can be limited by the OS, etc...

  Now, I checked my licenses and they are for each host that I have:

  Company of VSphere 4. 1-6 cores per processor. 2 cpu by assigned host.

  Thus, it cannot be a problem with the license...

  Any ideas?

  Hello and welcome to the forums.

  The Enterprise Plus edition is required for vSMP 8 channels.  You can check in the vSphere editions comparison.  The Enterprise edition will be limited to 4 vCPUs.

  The 6 cores per processor refers to the ESX host itself and directly relate to the SMP virtual machine.

  Good luck!
