Displacement of ESXi 4 host to Port Gigabit

Hello

We run ESXi 4. I would like to pass the physical interface to connect a fast ethernet port gigabit port. Everyone sees any problems with simply pull on the cable and connecting to the new gigabit switch? Anything I need to worry about this move?

Thank you

If it is a single connection, you actually interrupt the network traffic to and from the host and virtual machines for a short period. If this is acceptable to you, then it's ok.

  • Problems with my 4 port Gigabit Security Router with VPN

    OK, I got a wireless router and I have a Web site hosted by 1and1.com and I could connect my fine site. But recently I got the 4 port Gigabit Security Router with VPN and since then I have not been able to connect to it even, I started my own ftp server it always blocks and it will capture everything until she tries to recover the files, then it expires just after a while

    What is the model number of your device? If you have a Web server and an FTP server behind the router, you will need to transfer the ports used by the said request. Ports TCP 80 and TCP 21.

  • Storage on ESXi shared host

    Hello

    I'll have a bit of a problem of storage configuration shared for vMotion and I'd appreciate any help you can provide.

    I try to have the following configuration:

    • ESXi 4.1 2 hosts (for example, A and B) who will run VMs.

    • ESXi 4.1 1 host (for example, C) as data store shared to keep VM configs.

    • 1 Server Windows Server 2008 running vCenter.

    In the end, I'd like to be able to create a store of data shared on C which A and B can read/write to so I can perform vMotion between A and B.

    It is possible to implement this config with a regular host of ESXi running on C? Currently all ESXi hosts are bare bones PC with IDE drives. In other words, I wonder if I can convert a regular ESXi running on an ordinary PC server to a host of shared storage or do I need a NAS dedicated instead of C for which?

    Finally, I would like to vMotion between two (i.e. ESXi hosts A and B) and keep the files of configuration on a separate host, preferably another plain of ESXi host with an ordinary IDE drive.

    I am very new to all this so I'd appreciate pointers.

    Kind regards

    Hello and welcome to the forums

    I do not know the material for ESXi host A and B.

    But in a scenario you want iSCSI, vMotion, storage

    There are at least 2 additional NIC for each ESXi host (VMotion requires Gigabit)

    If you want to host C for shared data storage,

    -You can go for a virtual machine that does the job (worst)

    -Make a box iSCSI dedicated with (http://www.openfiler.com/) OpenFiler or FreeNAS (http://freenas.org/downloads) (best)

    And do some additional reading on this forum about the use of these products.

    -Buy a (better) separate storage box

    If BOX C has an IDE drive, the performance is not good

    I don't know if you're gooing to run a production environment or just a laboratory.

    In the case of production, I recommend you check the compatibility, in case of support issues

  • 4-port gigabit ram vista fix

    I stumbled across the ms Update site, but I am unable to find (fix 4-port gigabit ram for Vista) I would like to improve my laptop 1 GB to 4 GB. Can someone give me an idea where to find and fix Ms.

    There is no 'RAM solution' for Windows Vista.  If you have a 32-bit version of Windows Vista, then you can install Service Pack 1 and it will allow you to 'see' the 4 GB of RAM on the property page, but it does not fully use it.

  • What measures are necessary for UNTAG vlan by default to port gigabit on SRW208P

    We have 1 VLAN disabled on our standard Cisco Catalyst switches and use our default VLAN 11.  We have recently added some 221 VLAN for voice while implementing a new Cisco UC system.  I can't disable VLAN1, however, I made the default VLAN 11 and 221 VLAN voice.  In management of VLANS, I can UNTAG 11 (VLAN PVID) on all ports but the connection to the Cisco 6506/port Gigabit.  The port still tags VLAN 11 and 221 and removes the brand VLAN (PVID) 1.

    I tried to make changes to the switch when you are connected to the switch and when I do the setting, the switch loses the connection to the 6506.  If I make the appropriate changes to GI (1) when you are connected to GI (2), the change takes effect, however, when I move the connection to GI (1) cable, the port and VLAN 11 configuration changes becomes identified and VLAN1 becomes marked.

    What is needed to prevent this?

    Hello Mike,.

    The roles of smartport negotiated links and seem to have resolved to manually set the port configurations.

    In addition, SX300 series does not support the SPAN distance, therfore silent monitoring does not work between the UCCX and phones when you plug into the switch (s).

  • VMware ESXi 5 host stops sending the syslogs to the remote server (Splunk)

    We have recently installed a Splunk syslog server and our pointing devices are to him.   I noticed that when we stop/start the server (or service) the logs of all my ESXi 5 hosts stop coming in.

    There seems to be a known problem

    http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 2003127

    The next step 5 restart the newspaper that circulates.  But there is no way I want to log on to the console and run it whenever someone does something in Splunk that needs a reboot or the Windows box is restarted for patches.

    I started writing a script bash (below), but discovered that ESXi has really not an area of cron as has ESX4 (not i).  If I brute force to create it on the host, it will come off with tasks.

    # This checks if the syslog server is written on "SPLUNK" third-party syslog server

    # It will restart the syslog service if she sees that he has ceased to

    const = 'cannot write the journal. "

    If [/var/log/.vmsyslogd.err - e]; then

    /var/log/.vmsyslogd.err n 1 tail. grep "unable to write the log.

    If [$? = 0]; then

    echo '$const; Found in the LAST line, restart the syslog server.

    "I was going to cron to run every 15 minutes and if he saw the last line in the log that was stopped 'impossible to write the journal' so I would like to add a '.esxcli system syslog reload " inplace of the echo line.

    "I vCenter on a Windows machine and would like to run a scheduled task on all my hosts (perhaps a csv file) and then delivers."esxcli system syslog reload " if that is found.  I can't figure out how to do this, can anymore help me out?

    Concerning

    You may need to enable tcp/ip

    SQL Server Express to listen on the named pipes and shared memory. With a default installation, you can not connect remotely to SQL Server Express. You'll need to enable TCP/IP and check if the firewall is enabled.

    To enable TCP/IP:
    On the start menu, choose all programs, point to Microsoft SQL Server 2005, point to Configuration Tools, and then click SQL Server Configuration Manager.

    Optionally, you can open the computer by right click on Desktop Manager then choosing manage. In computer management, expand Services and Applications, SQL Server Configuration Manager.

    Expand SQL Server 2005 Network Configuration, and then click protocols for InstanceName.

    In the list of protocols, right-click the protocol you want to enable and then click Enable.

    The icon for the Protocol change to indicate that the Protocol is enabled.

  • Can't ssh ESXi 5 host

    I had to do a strengthening of security on a host computer and now I can't ssh in.  I can go back to what I did, but I want to clarify what line in the sshd_config file is the cause.  I'll list out what I have:

    The SSH server is enabled and running under Firewall and ssh and ESXi shell is running on the host computer in the security profile

    I can connect to the host via the HP Onboard Administrator, both the shell and the DCUI

    I use putty and I put the 3DES encryption cipher selection policy and I tried to tell the version of the SSH 2 Protocol only, I went back with only 2 and just selection 2

    I can connect to the host directly with root and with an admin account, that set up the shell and DCUI

    I know that root cannot ssh in the host since PermitRootLogin is set to no, I'm getting my secondary account

    I immediately receive an error "The network connection closed unexpectedly Server", so it's going to stop until I can grasp anything.

    Finally, the ESXishelltimeout is 900 seconds

    I don't know what the sshd_config fie since I edited it's just before I had this problem.

    Thanks for any input.

    I think I have figured it out, I think that the 'UsePrivilegeSeparation yes' line is causing the problem, I tried on another host and that seems to be.  I check just in case anyone has the problem in the future.

  • Connect two ESXi 5 hosts via crossover cable

    Hi all

    I am trying to configure two separate of ESXi hosts so that I can run Veeam replication on the subnet that I will create on the crossover cable. I have an open port on a NETWORK adapter on each host, but I could not understand how to assign an IP address for each port. The destination host has not all VMs, so I can't configure the port through the guest OS. Is it still possible?

    Thank you all!

    It is possible - you need to create the vmkernel ports that use these physical uplinks
