Database Update Manager

• Any need of Update Manager 2 databases?

  Hey guys,.

  We have a farm 4.1, a farm of 5.0 and a farm 5.1.  We are running Update manager on the server vCenter for farm 5.0.  We just build a new farm 5.1 and I noticed that the update to the farm Manager 5.0 shows no task 5.1.  I make sure not to cause problems on farms 4.1 and 5.0, but I thought the best way for everything to be sorted would update Update Manager on the farm of 5.0 to 5.1.  Then point the battery 5.1 servers to update manager in the farm 5.0.  Are there problems with it?  I won't start accidentally updating hosts in other farms, etc., but I think that I have to download an image of ESXi and decontaminate before something bad happens.  Are there other settings that I should check if ensure the upgrade of the Update Manager 5.0-> 5.1 won't cause problems?  I know that I should make a backup of the database as well.

  Thank you

  If I'm reading between the lines correctly, you have separate vCenter for each of your 4.1, 5.0 and 5.1 servers environments. Is this correct, or you manage all your farms with a single instance of vCenter?

  Unless something has changed, the Update Manager can interact with a vCenter server, and you need an instance of VUM for each vCenter, using the same version of VUM as the vCenter server.

• Update Manager - error connecting to VMware vCenter Update Manager - database temporarily unavailable or has network problems.

  I uninstalled and reinstalled, I triple checked that I can connect on the VCenter server using the account Update Manager DB owner on the Update Manager database. I can connect to SQL using the native client ODBC SQL 2008 under the same account. But we get the same error of several machines when we install and run the plugin VCenter.

  Any ideas?

  If you use Windows authentication to connect to the database, you have to change the user who initially on the virtual center of the Update Manager service. You must put the name of user and password of the user that can connect to the database (by default Update Manager beginning with the Local System account. During the installation if the vCenter Server is on Windows 2008 I think you must also use the FQDN of the server vCenter (or ip address) to be sure it get the right address (something to do with IPv6 on Windows 2008). At least it worked for me.

• Update management using an external database

  Aloha - I decided to install the Update Manager by using an external database. The manual does not explain how to do this. I follow a similar procedure I did creating my original VC database?

  Mahalo, Bill

  exactly the same process as setting up of your DB vCenter.  You can actually use the vCenter DB if you wish.  For us, but we have created a separate instance.  I don't like the idea of sharing

• Update Manager and the configuration of Virtual Center database = 1 database or the database even?

  We have a small environment VMware - 2-3 hosts, only 5-6 virtual machines for now, perhaps upward at 10-12 during the 2009 year.

  I looked at VUM and VC sizing spreadsheets and it seems I can do VC and Crossover work of SQL Express 2005 for 1-3 years, I need patch storage etc. and know that I may need to upgrade.

  VC and VUM facilities create their own separate databases or they are combined to form 1 data base?

  Or I would be better to buy 1 license Standard SQL with the 10 Cal instead? (I know that this would put the scale easily.)

  Thank you, Tom

  If you let the VC and VUM installers create the databases on the instance of SQL SERVER 2005 Express (named SQLEXP_VIM), it will create separate databases for each (VIM_VCDB for vCenter) and VIM_UMDB for the Update Manager. It is possible to have both of them use the same database, if you need to specify the database and ODBC settings in the installer.

  Hope that helps! Please, help me by marking my response as "useful" or "correct", if you feel it is useful!

• Help: Update Manager 5.1 is not visible on the main site!

  Hello

  Our VMware environment, I have two sites - primary and secondary. When I was working to update the profiles of the host, I logged in the Update Manager. At the time when I logged in, update redirected the secondary site manager. I tried to dig into this and found that the Update Manager is installed on the secondary site server - not in the primary. I want to know if I need to install the update on the main site manager to work with host profiles upgrade.

  
  

  Thank you
  

  Each update manager should have your own database, but they can share the same SQL Server.

• Essentials more Kit - can't find the Update Manager

  Hi all

  We are using VMware Essentials Plus Kit. Now, I want to update our vSphere ESXi hosts. Unfortunately I don't find the Update Manager in vSphere Client when connected to vCenter. See screen attached.

  1 belongs to Update Manager Essentials Plus Kit?

  2. How can I add update plugin eat at my facility?

  

  
  

  Thanks for help.

  Update Manager is a separate facility that AFAIK.  A server with a database connection is needed to run it.

  If you run the Vmware-VIMSetup-all file from a windows-based server, you will see the installer for the Manager to update as well as prerequisites for installation.

• Service Update Manager 5.5 crashing on Windows Server R2 2012

  Hello

  I try to get VUM 5.5 1 c working on a Windows Server R2 2012, but without a bit of luck.

  Everything installs correctly, Setup detects 32-bit DSN pointing to our SQL 2008 R2 server and database connectivity works. However, as soon as I am scanning an ESXi host available updates the vSphere VMware Update Manager service fails and a dmp file is created under C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware update Manager\Logs.

  Just to be sure I installed Crossover on another server in W2K12R2 own, but the end upwards with exactly the same problem. When I install the product on a Windows Server 2008 R2, it works very well.

  According to the VMware 5.5 VUM compatibility matrix works with W2K12R2, but this isn't for me.

  I enclose the vum-vmware-server log file that contains information about the accident of service.

  Best regards

  VUM scan and decontaminate works for me now without accident service VUM.

• Error 25003 When vSphere Update Manager installation

  Hello everyone

  I have a problem install vSphere Update Manager 5.5 on a Windows 2008 R2 server and I do not really get around it.

  During the installation of the Update Manager, I get the following error:

  Error 25003. To create database tables, the installation failed.

  This happens on the installation task "Repository of database creation of VMware vSphere Update Manager".

  I know that this error has already been discussed. It seems that this error happens mainly when you are using a remote SQL database. That's what I'm NOT.

  My environment is that a domain joined Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard in English. We use the vCenter Server Appliance, so there is no database present on this server. Only, I begin the installation of the Update Manager and use the option to automatically install an instance of SQL Express. Then, this error occurs.

  I did another installation of Manager Update on another site without any error.

  No clue as to what might cause this error?

  Thank you very much

  René

  Yes, I tried.

  During this time, I understood what causes problems. This server is a Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard in English, but with Turkish regional settings.

  This locale cause Update Manager produce this Error 25003. Once I changed all the English locale and rebooting the server, then install flawlessy.

  This error seems to be known by VMware, but only for vCenter Server installation. VUM also seems to be affected.

  Thanks anyway...

• The downloaded update package cannot be used with vSphere VMware Update Manager

  Hello

  I am improving a system of vmware (Vcenter + 3 host) of 5.1 to 5.5

  I did a reinstall total Manager Vcenter and updated to version 5.5, using a new database.

  Then, I want to update my hosts with Update Manager.

  When I download VMware-VMvisor-Installer - 5.5.0 - 1331820.x86_64 in Update Manager, I get the message: cannot use the update package downloaded with vSphere VMware Update Manager

  
  

  I also tried to import VMware-VMvisor-Installer - 5.1 (Build: 1065491) but I get the same error

  In my view, the vmware KB2009812 is not applicable, because I've updated UDM first to 5.5

  Any idea?

  thx a lot

• Update Manager - never to host reboots

  We use the Update Manager (on vcenter 5.1). We have a host with a new esxi installation 5.1 (799733). Using the Update Manager and applying critical patches of host base line tells me there are 111 available patches. If I look at the individual patches contained, most say that the Impact is "Reboot, Maintenance Mode. However when I run the restore, the process only takes around 5 minutes and never restart the host. If I run a scan, it tells me that no update is necessary. It seems that the patches have been applied. However, I fear that it happened so quickly and never required a reboot. Is this a normal behavior. Y at - it another way to confirm that the patches have been applied?

  Sounds like the base line does not include the old plates. Choose the option change the base line and:

  If you use a fixed baseline, remove patches no ESXi5 from the list.

  If a dynamic reference database is used to change the product only to ESXi5.

• vSphere5 update 1 future patches dated Update Manager!
