Copy VM between data warehouses

• Migration of VMs between data warehouses

  I added a new data store to a vSphere 5.5 infrastructure and created a few scheduled tasks to migrate under tension on the virtual machines between data warehouses.

  The migration is successful, but on the source data store, I still see a lot of files for some migrated VMs, including the .vswp and vmware files - xx.log.

  This means that the scheduled task has failed?

  What have I to do to completely move virtual machines?

  Should I turn off and turn on the virtual machine?

  Concerning

  Maybe this file are simply zombie files, generated cause an improper shutdown of the VM (take a look at the date of creation/modification of files). You can try to rename these files, if you are able to do so, these files aren't really in use. After you rename and make sure that the virtual machine works as expected, you can manually delete the files.

• Movimentacao between data warehouses

  Pessoal, tirem minhas questions, please:

  Preciso mover some VMs between data warehouses, para Espaço realocacao, mas o client não possui o Storage VMotion. Then devo mover na mao mesmo:

  1. Desligar o servidor
  2. Remover o servidor inventario
  3. Mover a pasta server between os data warehouses (explore data store / move directory)
  4. Readicionar o servidor ao inventario
  5. Ligar o servidor

  É ISSO, certo?

  Estava pensando numa coisa, mas não sei is da certo e be e certo fazer.

  SE EU mudasse an ambiente licença para LICENÇA (FREE) AVALIAÇÃO, dai todos os recursos ficariam habilitados, como e por padrão na versão Avaliação. The EU Dai usaria o Storage VMotion e depois colocaria a licença of volta.

  
  Acham as daria certo?

  Abraço,

• Storage vmotion, between data warehouses when the block size is different

  Hi all

  I would like to know, is it possible to do a vmotion of storage between two data warehouses, when they have different block sizes. The case is as a former vmfs data store 3 which has been upgraded direct to vmfs5 there, but since it has been updated it maintains its own block size. While the newly created vmfs datastore 5 a block size of 1 MB.

  Thus, storage Vmotion will work in this case? It will fail OR will be with degraded performance?

  Finally, storage vmotion is possible even if you do not have a cluster DRS for storage?

  Thank you

  Yes you can!

  Check some info on the effects of block size: http://www.yellow-bricks.com/2011/02/18/blocksize-impact/

• Can you pass offline virtual machines between data warehouses using the 'Migration' with the basic Kit Essentials feature?

  I speak not of Essentials Plus vMotion between hosts or migration of VMS between hosts and data warehouses online. Just curious to know if its possible to off a virtual machine and click the button to migrate to another store of data with the basic Essentials bundle.

  Welcome to the community - Yes you can - it's what we call a cold migration.

• Move VM between data warehouses

  What is the fastest way to move a virtual machine between two warehouses of data on the same host ESXi?

  I Don t use vCenter. The disks are thick lazy available at zero and about 400 GB in size.

  Follow these steps:

  • power off the virtual machine (do not suspend)
  • delete the virtual machine of the inventory
  • Open the data store with the virtual machine file
  • in the left pane, select the root folder and in the right pane, select the folder of the virtual machine
  • then either click on the "Move" icon or right click on the folder and select "move to".
  • Once moved, open the browser to store data to the new data store
  • Right-click right the VM .vmx file and choose "add to the inventory.

• Cold using vMotion migration between data warehouses

  To perform a migration cold between 2 not the source ESX servers and the host ESX destination need to see two data stores?

  I have a host ESX 3.5 with 1 data store called data01 and a host ESXi 5.0 with a data store called data02. Using vCenter to manage the two ESX host - what I want to turn off a virtual running on the 3.5 host computer and perform a migration cold, including a data store move to 5.0 host.

  
  Can this be achieved?

  I am unable to storage area presented to the ESX host 3.5 to the host of 5.0 and also unable to storage 5.0 to 3.5 host.

  The OP is talking about a cold migration.  In the scenario described, it doesn't have to be a shared storage.  As long as the migration cold remains in the same instance of vCenter, there should be no problem.

• Get-hard drives - storage drives data store migrate between data warehouses

  Hi all

  
  

  Our current storage configuration with specially designed split-role of the bases of data storages (OS, LOG SQL, SQL DATA, APP, Exchange roles, etc.)  I do a storage store on my VMware Infrastructure and hoped to target only the disks of virtual machines that are on any data store and migrate them to another.  Rather new to PowerCli if you're wondering why the bellows of the command does not work and the reports that the file is locked.
  

  
  

  Get-hard drive - data store 'Datastore01 ' | Moving-hard drive - data store Datastore02

  If the machine virtual itself is made aware of the command?  Would I have to enumarte the virtual machines on the first data store and then target discs that everyone has and redirect it to the hard disk Move command?

  Thanks in advance

  Yes, you are banging in the sequence of commands trying to move a file on the data store without referencing the virtual machine. According to the State of the virtual machine (lit or not) of different things happen

  • VM power off - the disc is moved and the virtual machine is broken (the vmx file will always point to the original location for the HD that is no longer there)
  • Virtual MACHINE power - the disk is locked, so it cannot be moved (the error you have seen)

  Another thing to keep in mind is that the configuration of the VM is also on a data store, so if you want to move the entire virtual machine you can just move the hard drives

  If all the virtual machines on a data store have all their HDs on this data store then you can do something like

  Get - VM - data store 'Datastore01 ' | Move-VM - data store "Datastore02".

  To access the VM configuration, but also his records. If you have virtual machines where the disks into a single virtual machine, then you will have a little more work to do to sort the records that must be moved

  Get - VM - data store 'Datastore01 ' | Get-hard drive | Where-Object {$_.} FileName.Contains ("[Datastore01]")} | Moving-hard drive - data store "Datastore02".

  This is all virtual machines with a component (hard drive or configuration) on Datastore1, and then for each VM is all hard disks that are on Datastore01 and the Datastore02

• Moving propelled out of virtual machines between data warehouses

  I need to create a script to move a list of virtual machines in the current in another data store.

  The script must move the first VM, wait for the operation to complete, and then move the second and so on.

  Y at - it no samples can I start from?

  Concerning

  Marius

  You can check VMRelocatedEvent with Get-ViEvent.

  Something like that

  $targetVM = "MyVM.

  $finished = $false

  {while(!$finished)}

  If ((Get-Date) Get-VIEvent-Start. AddMinutes(-15) - MaxSamples ([int]: MaxValue) |

  where {$_-is [VMware.Vim.VmRelocatedEvent] - and $_.} {Vm.Name - eq $targetVM)}

  $finished = $true

  }

  else {}

  Sleep 30

  }

  }

• EX 3.5 migration of VMS between data warehouses

  Hi all

  Don't know if this is location of correctr but I don't know that it will be moved required

  Scenario - I have a very small server ESX 3.5 with VM hosted on 6. We recently plugged in and set up a SAN and I'm trying to migrate servers from local storage to the San, one at a time. I wrote a script that works on the my ESX 3.5 bed test system, but does not work on my production system. I can't the biggest hard drives on the production system to copy. I run the script as a scheduled task on Saturday afternoon, after I have confirmed that my backup of vRanger connection is completed. I reason I do a "cp" oppsoed suddenly, I like the idea of being able to fall back to the original virtual machine is required. I know that most of the script is working as I can see the original virtual machine power off or not and all the files except the VMDK copied during the local storage to the San.

  I have attached the script that I use as well as the log file which follows from the weekend final run. Can someone please take a look and see what I'm doing wrong? It's driving me crazy.

  Only, we have unique ESX connected to the San, and don't use vmotion. The SAN is connected and (I hope) properly configured.

  What files are missing? Compare your source files and destination, in the case. You can also watch this http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1000936 Ko to verify if you don't a not build anything.

  Your script worked on another host, it should also work on that one.

  Good luck.

• Please help understand the mappings between PS & tables tables of data warehouse

  Hello
  We have OBIEE 11 g with OLIVIER 7.9.6.3 (HR Analytics) installation with Informatica PowerCenter SE 9.01 HF2. We use PeopleSoft HRMS 9.1 system source.
  Can you please help me how to understand the flow of data from end to end (or data model with relationship) between the PeopleSoft Tables and tables of data warehouse? Y at - it none available who liaises between the PeopleSoft HRMS tables and tables of data warehouse?
  
  PS We are new to Informatica workflow maps to find it very difficult to understand each mapping for each table.

  You can use the guide to table HR analytics on metalink. Here's the note:

  HR Analytics, Oracle Business Intelligence - Source tables uses [ID 1328607.1]

  This will show you the use of the main table. If you need the full line, you can use the data lineage Guide.

• Share data warehouses between clustered hosts

  Hello, we had initially a cluster of ESX consisting of two guests who had shared access to different VMFS LUNS on an iSCSI SAN.

  Recently we bought an additional server, and additional storage and we have some problems to get the extra VMFS LUNs to be recognized by all hosts. The additional LUN is recognized by all hosts after a new analysis to Configuration-> storage adapters, but it seems that data warehouses can be added only for the storage of an individual host and not shared by the cluster?

  Adding the extra VMFS LUNS to a host works very well but they are not immediately recognized by the other guests and whenever you try to add data to them warehouses they insists on formatting the LUN and treating it essentially as a data store different.

  Since there is no problem sharing data between hosts warehouses in the original configuration, I wonder what setting it is necessary to enable sharing between all hosts in a cluster of data store? Thanks in advance!

  Probably, you have LUNS in different ways for each ESX Server (or the new ESX). If any information logical unit number (Lun ID, wwwn, etc.) is not the same for all ESX host tend to view this as a snapshot LUN.

  If you can't find what's going on, you can try a workaround (not too recommended but should work in your environment): go to the ESX configuration tab, click Advanced settings, and look for LVM. DisallowSnapshotLun option under LVM. Change it to 0, click OK and perform a new analysis. Repeat this for all of your guests.

  Please let us know if it works.

• Copy of models between data centers

  Hello

  I have a couple of VM being cloned to models. These models need to be copied in other data centers VMWare. I got it all to a using PowerCLI PowerShell script. If I understand well I can't do just a simple copy of a data center to another. First of all, I need to upload the template, then download to the data center target to get these models where they do.

  Does anyone have an idea how I could do this task and it is able to be accomplished using PowerCLI?

  TIA

  OK, you could do something in this direction.

  $vmName = "MyVM.

  $templateName = "template".

  $tgtDC = "dc".

  $dc = get-data center-name $tgtDC

  # Get the VM source

  $vm = get-VM-name $vmName

  # Clone VM and move it to the target DC

  New-VM - $vm - name $templateName VM | Move-VM-Destination $dc

  # Convert the VM cloned a model of

  Get-VM-name $templateName | Set-model
