• Add the default gateway for the VMKernel port group

  Hello

  I use this script to create a VMkernel port group, but the last part of the gateway address of updates to script for all groups of VMKernel ports. How can I change the script so it adds the passage for the 55-CHI-VMKernel port group only. Thank you.

  $hostname6 = "host1".
  $pg = New-VirtualPortGroup-55-CHI-VMKernel - VirtualSwitch "vSwitch1' name - VLanId 55

  New-VMHostNetworkAdapter - VMHost $hostname6 - $pg PortGroup - VirtualSwitch "vSwitch1' - '10.33.1.77' IP - subnet"255.255.255.0"- ManagementTrafficEnabled $true mask

  IP address of the gateway #Add
  $netMgr = get-View (Get-VMHost $hostname6 |) Get - View).ConfigManager.NetworkSystem
  $iproute = new-Object VMware.Vim.HostIpRouteConfig
  $iproute.defaultGateway = "10.33.1.3".
  $netMgr.UpdateIpRouteConfig ($iproute)

  Have you tried it like that?

  If you script is called blah.sh, rather than run comme./blah.sh run it with sh - x blah.sh. This produces a result more to see what variables/etc. get the script runs through its logic. It's an easy way to debug

  The error you see is nothing with the script, I think whether you're creating a portgroup, then the interface back to back and it might happen too fast and so you get an error with the entry. Easy way to check this is to add sleep command before you create the VMkernel interface and see if that helps

  Can you check if this option is there in your BIOS "Default memory mapped IO above 4 GB option in the BIOS.". If Yes please turn it off

• Put virtual machines inside the VMkernel port group

  Hello

  Network for administrators of VMware SIAS layout:

  "You can not put VMs within that group of port because it is made especially for a VMkernel port."

  However, I use ESXi 5.5 and is able to put normal interface of VM inside the vmk port group. (I only created 1 vmk port group so all virtual machines in the same group with the vmkernel interface)

  May I know if this is a new feature, or something is wrong?

  Thank you!

  This may be possible with distributed switches not with standard switches.

• VMKernel port group

  Here is the configuration of the network of one of our hosts ESX 4.1:

  (1) the virtual computer network

  (2) Service with 1 IP console

  (3) VMKernel with 1 IP for vMotion and iSCSI, called as VMKernel_iSCI

  I can see there are 4 NICs attached to this host.

  Now, I just know, that same using iSCSI and vMotion VMKernel is not a good practice.

  question 1

  So I would like to know how is the mapping of the ESX host's network. Is this;

  1 NETWORK card = 1 VM Network

  1 NETWORK card = 1 Service Console

  1 card NETWORK = 1 which is currently used for iscsi and vmotion VMKernel port group

  In a standard switch, there are 2 network cards configured.

  2nd question

  I want to delete 1 port VMKernal vmotion (VMKernel_iSCI) and create a dedicated for vmotion.

  I know that I have will require another IP address, but what of NIC, it will be;

  1 NETWORK card = VMKernel_iSCSI

  1 NETWORK card = VMKernel_vMotion

  Please explain.

  Thank you

  Mihir

  From a pure technical point of view, it will work, as long as your network is configured properly (i.e. taking advantage of VLAN and the separate subnets on management, vMotion and iSCSI). However, I am worried about the bandwidth and quarrels with such a configuration.

  BTW. except if you've already seen it, I would recommend that you take a look at http://www.vmware.com/files/pdf/virtual_networking_concepts.pdf

• Script to create multiple virtual machines model works is not for the network adapter variable

  We are working on a script to create multiple virtual machines from a template. The script works fine, but when we try to include commands to set the NIC to a group of specific ports on a dvswitch script errors on. Here's what we have so far. This script (less network variables) works, but we would like to include the network configs in the script as well.

  -------------------

  This is the part of the script that configures the network/dvswitch adapter... but does not work properly.

  $myResourcePool = get-ResourcePool-name DQOL

  $dsName = get-Datastore-name "DQOL-DS01.

  $myTemplate = get-Template-name "DQVTemplate".

  $distributedSwitchPortGroup = get-VirtualSwitch-distributed - name "CVE-dvS04-Nexus - k 5 | Get-VirtualPortGroup-name '979-DQ-SHARED '.

  New-VM-name MyVM1-model $myTemplate - Networkname ResourcePool - $myResourcePool - OSCustomizationSpec $mySpecification $distributedSwitchPortGroup - Datastore

  (Get-$dsName data store)

  New-VM-name MyVM2-model $myTemplate - ResourcePool $myResourcePool - OSCustomizationSpec $mySpecification - Datastore (Get-$dsName data store)

  _____________________

  !!!!!!!  This part works, but without specifying a network/dvswitch... card!

  $myResourcePool = get-ResourcePool-name DQOL

  $dsName = get-Datastore-name "CVE-SAN-ISG-DS02-02ef.

  $myTemplate = get-Template-name "DQVTemplate".

  New-VM-name MyVM3-model $myTemplate - ResourcePool $myResourcePool - OSCustomizationSpec $mySpecification - Datastore (Get-$dsName data store)

  New-VM-name MyVM4-model $myTemplate - ResourcePool $myResourcePool - OSCustomizationSpec $mySpecification - Datastore (Get-$dsName data store)

  Here is the error we get:

  New-VM: all parameters can be resolved by using the specified named parameters.

  C:\Users\capuanoj\Desktop\Create-multiplevms-fromtemplate.ps1:6 char: 7

  You cannot use the - model and Networkname - parameters of the cmdlet New - VM in a single order, because both are in different parameter sets. You must first create the virtual machine and then use the cmdlet Set-NetworkAdapter to change the portgroup of the virtual machine. As in example 4, assistance from cmdlet Set-NIC:

  --------------  Example 4 --------------

  C:\PS>$myNetworkAdapters = Get - VM | Get-NetworkAdapter-name "NIC 1.
  $myVDPortGroup = get-VDPortgroup-name MyVDPortGroup
  Together-NetworkAdapter NetworkAdapter - $myNetworkAdapters - $myVDPortGroup Portgroup

  Retrieves all network named "NIC 1" cards of all virtual machines and connects to the specified distributed port group.

• Explanations on lawless VMKernel &amp; port management pour network configuration

  Hello

  When my money of VCenter configurations, I understand a little better connections in the VSwitches ports VMKernels and Managements of Port.

  Is this the same chosen?

  Thanks in advance

  Under ESX on was 3 types of ports/network:

  -Console of Service-> dedicated to the administration of the ESX

  -VMKernel: Used pour storage NAS and iSCSI-> allows you to Allocate an IP to the ESX

  -VM Network: Ream pour create the network of virtual machines

  Under ESXi, there is more service Console, everything is now in the vmkernel. 'Network management' is the name given to the vmkernel port created during installation of the ESXi and on which to active the ESXi management

• Definition of VLAN ID on vmkernel ports on dVS - Nexus 1000

  I noticed when adding vmkernel ports to a host on the dVS I'm not presented with an option to enter a VLAN ID. Is it because the VLANS is defined at the level of the port on the Nexus Group? Is there a need for me to create these ports on a vSwitch first to set the VLAN and then migrate them to the dVS?

  Thank you

  JD

  The VLAN ID is controlled by the port-profile on the VSMs 1000v. You don't have to specify it.

• Access NAS storage of ESXi Server using VMKernel Port?

  Hello

  I would like to know the best procedure to connect to the NAS storage of ESXi host 5. I am able to connect to the NAS storage according to the screenshots listed in the link below.

  http://www.tintri.com/blog/2011/11/connecting-vSphere-to-NFS-the-easy-way/

  But, I saw different configurations in the past where port dedicated VMkernel is assigned to NAS and all storage goes into network 10 G. I try to do the same and created a VMkernel for NAS port. But I don't think that traffic is going over there as it is not used at all.

  I gave the IP address of the ESXi server on the NAS box to get access. I couldn't give address IP VMkernel sideways NAS. How can I make use of this IP VMKernel dedicated NFS storage?

  I want to implement the best way to pass NAS 10 G network traffic. In addition, How can I test if storage traffic crosses VMkernel port?

  Suggestions needed.

  Virtualinfra is right that you must use a different subnet for NFS traffic. You masked the IP range, so I don't see what you use, but make sure that the vmkernel and storage using a single subnet, not the management subnet. If you get an error, your use of a subnet that goes out the default gateway of the management port, or that you are using the same subnet.

  I wrote a few articles on the use of NFS with vSphere: http://wahlnetwork.com/2012/04/19/nfs-on-vsphere-a-few-misconceptions/

  Also, make sure that the vmnic can route traffic on that subnet, as in the case of the use of VLANs.

• How can I create multiple fronts for a single diagram?

  Hello

  I developed a VI with several controls and indicators that should run on computers with a screen from 800 x 600 to 1680 x 1050 resolutions. The problem I have is that the façade don't is not properly for this range of resolutions by checking the options in 'Properties of the VI' option. Is there a way to create multiple panels before in various sizes for my diagram and select the façade appropriate in accordance with the resolution of the screen programmatically?

  See the attached Zip file.

  I have two different facades.  Either one open and run it.  They call MainCode.vi that takes the references which is past and register for events.  From there on, he does all the work of the code that you would put in your façade .vi.

  In this way each façade can be arranged however you want for each screen resolution.
