• Director of the laboratory - cannot export to ESXi host (SMBMount unsupported)

  Hi all

  I had this problem since the liberation.  This is my environment:

  Director of the laboratory of 4.0.1

  vCenter 4.0 Update 1

  ESXi (3 guests) 4.0 Update 1

  Shared storage: EMC SAN with NAS volume on gigabit ethernet.

  I opted to use on ESX ESXi VMWare's future, as far as development.

  My problem is this: when I click to export a configuration of Lab Manager, it fails with "Error in export."  The details of the message are:

  * Error export the Configuration.

  vCenter Lab Manager cannot find that any suitable host connected to the "NFS Datastore" data store for this operation.

  Host 'ESXi1' is an ESXi host and does not support smbmount.*

  I installed ESXi being under the impression he was supposed to have all the same functionality as ESX.  Now, I have myself screwed... my users will sometimes have to export configurations to test booting the VMS of USB dongles (as there is no USB transfer directly to a virtual computer that it's time to start).  If at least 3 times a week I have to export virtual machines, one by one, to a network share, which is quite tedious and quite annoying.

  Is on the timeline of development?  I noticed that the 4.0.2 has been released, but by its requirements (http://www.vmware.com/support/labmanager40/doc/releasenotes_labmanager402.html#newfeatures) it does not support ESXi 4.x, which is strange because the requirements for Lab Manager 4.0.1 (http://www.vmware.com/support/labmanager40/doc/releasenotes_labmanager40.html) list ESXi 4.0 as a host in charge.

  Can someone please shed some light on this issue and maybe get it on the development plan for the next version of Lab Manager?

  Thank you!

  stemplar,

  We don't do generally no update notes version after a product has been released.

  In addition, it is not specific to Lab Manager, ESXi does not support required... orders so Lab Manager is just stating the restriction of resource pools provided.  As far as I remember, ESXi did not support smbmount (or mount-t smbfs) since its inception.

• Director of the laboratory - routing and VLAN

  Hey,.

  So we are currently setting up Lab Manager in our environment, the environment in which we are setting up is a replica of our production environment. In the LABORATORY, we use 13 VIRTUAL networks.

  I use Vyatta to route between the VLANS right now, but we are running into a problem now, 13 VLAN... 3 more that it has configurable s NIC on a virtual machine.

  Aside from trying to convince everyone that we don't need of 13 VIRTUAL networks in a lab environment, are there other possible solutions or have you guys seen or been around something like this configuration before?

  (I've been throwing around the idea of setting up two VM running Vyatta and creation of a separate network who share the two interfaces on one VLAN from the 14th and then distribute the network load between two virtual machines but it's even more work that manually configure an instance of Vyatta in LM whenever someone wants a new workspace to test.)

  What do you think guys?

  I would say that you need to trim more work for yourself in the long term.   If you want a "real" picture of your lab and prod, you can see either plan b of your presentation above and buy physical passes capable of vlan trunking. Not much, we can hope for until Vmware gets beyond the limit of 10 - nic that seems more promising with all support for 10gbe cards now.  Some department stores I've seen can pull off a true mirror of their production environment as they can in their laboratory.  With virtualization, it makes it much easier to achieve.  I hope one day, we can be their one day ;-).

  See you soon,.

• Director of the laboratory of vCould Migration

  Finally, we started with a proof of concept in lieu of LM vCD. Still everyone has a few best lessons learned? Networking seems to goo, but has yet to be understood. Plugin remote desktop feels worse.

  -What is the best to do with workspaces?

  -What is a mapping of good organization? For example, for access to the network resources?

  -Is anyone has seen yet, how make an export full of all virtual machines in a paralytic (for example as a backup?)

  Stop the VAPP stops it.  By default it just turns off the virtual machine.  You can change it to a soft stop via the good operating system in the properties of vApp.

  Hot cloning can be done via the user interface, but can be done through the API.  It's the same for the extension of disk space.

• Director of the laboratory on ESXi

  Hi all

  I working on my Masters trying to facilitate virtual laboratories. I configured from now an esxi 4.0 to run host machines and am able to connect to computers. I read on a post that esxi is not supported in vmlabmanger. However, the user's guide says that it could be used as a host.

  Now, I wonder if I can go ahead and use labmanager for the deployment of the laboratories.

  Could you please guide me with the installation requirements and procedure for vmlabmanager running on windows server 2003 and connect to ESXi host

  Thank you

  I know that the new Lab Manager 4 supports (i) ESX 3.5 and 4.0, as noted in the release notes: http://www.vmware.com/support/labmanager40/doc/releasenotes_labmanager40.html ... I don't know about older versions

• Director of the laboratory: how much is

  Hi guys,.

  I already have standard vSphere. If I want to buy Lab Manager, how much it costs?

  It is just like in this page:

  http://store.vmware.com/servlet/ControllerServlet?Action=DisplayPage & Env = BASE & local = en_US & SiteID = vmware & id = ProductDetailsPage & productID = 138127300 & resid = MlHJ5QoHAj0AACYDVxYAAAAN & 1250821197140 = rests

  Support for VMware vCenter Lab Manager 4.0 for 1 processor + Platinum (24 x 7) 3 years

  $2 448,70

  Y at - it no limitation as the amount of the virtual machine, we can create, or the amount of the host, we can use with Lab Manager?

  Thanks in advance.

  For the portion of the price, the best if you call the seller serve you on VMware (partner or VMware).

  1 Lab Manager license can only be used in 1 (physical CPU, not the carrots) take of the ESX host. So, if your ESX 4 CPU (say 4 CPUS, total 16 cores), need you 4 license of LM.

  The license does not limit the number of VM.

• Director of the laboratory on vSPhere & vCenter4

  Hello

  We pretty much have to buy vCenter 4 and upgrade our company VI3 to vSPhere, is Lab Manager (latest version) compatible with these two output?

  Thank you

  The current version of Lab Manager 3 is not supported on vSphere, there will be a new version sometime this year I hope it helps vSphere. Here is an article that deals with other products VMware who will not support release of vSphere GA immediately: http://www.virtualization.info/2009/04/vsphere-40-may-not-support-some-other.html

• Director of the laboratory by using too many IPs

  Our lab environment manager has a pool of 200 IP to the choice.  We never have more than 100 machines deployed at once, but I continue to turn IP addresses before we brand reatch the 100.  I know that LM uses 1 internal address and an external but where the rest of the IPs go?  Is it possible to empty?

  The internal IP address is reserved permanently or not this VM is powered.  Clones of a VM just overload this assignment of the intellectual property, so that the internal IP address is actually reserved as long as there is a virtual machine or clones of this virtual machine.

• Director of the laboratory, adding new network interface

  Hello. I have a certain virtual machines in a workspace of LM and I would like to add another network interface. I have undeplyed the machine and it gives me the ability to add a new interface, however the interface I just added does not appear. How can I add this interface to a virtual machine that has already been added to a workspace?

  Looks like what you're trying to do is simply add a NETWORK adapter to a virtual computer in a configuration. It is fairly common and is detailed beginning on page 49 here http://www.vmware.com/pdf/lm30_users_guide.pdf. Let me know if it helps.

• Hosts are not displayed in the laboratory Manager

  I have an instance of Lab Manager 4.02. It works fine, until recently, I had to remove hosts from the instance of LM. While everything was closed, and the hosts were removed carefully, I added the new guests, ensuring you configs were identical, networks etc. Same version and everything. The virtual Center took the boxes, and they work fine.

  Lab Manager will, however, not seen. I confirmed repeatedly that none of my services fail, and no newspaper display errors. But the hosts under laboratory Manager section is empty.

  I checked with wireshark, and I get connectivity, as well as the responses of the Director of the lab - virtual Center.

  I brought the former hosts, with the same effect. I did then the labmanager to other VC instance he had never been associated, and he wouldn't see hosts there either.

  What would cause this? Someone at - he already experienced this? I have data in real-time in the current Lab Director, if I prefer not to rebuild.

  Thank you

  Besides that Graham mentioned,.

  > I brought the former hosts, with the same effect. I did then the labmanager to other VC instance he had never been associated, and he wouldn't see hosts there either.

  The Director of the laboratory cannot be associated with a single vCenter "Data center" object.  He memorizes the Objid of Datacenter and never delete it.  LM 4 should be able to work around this problem, or we can do something to erase the value manually.  But it would be better to try to verify the other steps first has affirmed here.

  > Then under management > resources section, click Resource Pools tab and select the "attach Resource Pool.

  > Select the resouce pool/ESX host you want on the shortcut menu.

  When you perform these steps, take a screenshot (in case it does not work).  I would like to see what objects have the Lab Manager icon already associated with them.

  You can upgrade to an SSD.

  The simplest method is to use an SSD as the Corsair Force 3 and don't forget that you buy the kit of migration.

  The migration kit comes with cloning software and a usb to SATA power cable that connects again SSD.

  It is recommended that you purchase and SSD that is approximately 256 GB in quality if you can find one that is affordable.

• X 64 Vista - Home Premium SP2 - game Second Life-need to create 2 folders to destination AppData or separate directories for the Viewer 1.23 and 2.2 caches

  I'm not a developer or a tech: only second life 1.23 is loaded on the computer – no productivity software. I need to create 2 folders to separate destination (or directories) to the SL Viewer 1.23 and Viewer 2.2 caches.  Right now the 1.23 cache is stored in the folder AppData/Local.  When 2.2 is downloaded, it will not replace 1.23, but things & Stuff Blog of Nalates Wordpress (also a contributor to regular Forum SL) recommend to around 2.2 to another 'file' or 'directory' cache (before the opening of 2.2 for the 1st time) to prevent the inventory and avatar problems loading again (when I had 2.1 load on the computer with 1.23) when I switch using the Viewer 1.23 and Viewer 2.2.  I don't know how to do this, but reading the wiki in Second Life in caches that directed me to the website of Microsoft, it seems that I need to get/use one command Linkd.exe which is part of the Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit Tools - but a note on the site of Microsoft for the Kit, under requirements of the States that the Kit is not supported supported on 64-bit platforms.  What to do please?  TY

  Hello

  a. go to the Preferences tab which displays your location of the cache.

  b. click on the 'Browse' (viewer 2.0) or the button "Set" (Viewer 1.23), create a new folder in a convenient (for example on your desktop) and select the folder to be your new location of the cache. Relog.

  c. This will give you a nice clean cache folder and do delete everything out of it easier in the future. If you use 3rd party clients, such as the Kirstens display, you might want to give them a separate folder, if they themselves (for example, Kirstens viewer uses "s20 C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\Kirstens")

• Deployment of CC in the laboratory, install works, no ACTIVE license?

  Educational institution, bought the CC for the laboratory. Install properly built the package that has been deployed by ARD to test the machine. Install a success. Started application (caught first Photoshop) on the test computer and everything worked as expected. In admin console, all licenses still available and none listed as active. When (how) the installed device license must be registered in the administration Console? Look forward to the advice. Thank you.

  Hate, leaving a net open; It seems that I was just excited. Checked in 4 hours later, and I see that the two machines I have test installed on now report 2 licenses in use, everything seems fine.
