• Connection to the client with VSphere ESX host makes me download the old version of the VSphere client

  Welcome the OS Version: 5.1.0 - 2013

  Question: When I connect to my guests with the VSphere client it forces me to re-download the VSphere client. As you can see from the attached PDF there pretty much all installed versions. Yet, he's trying to go to vsphereclient.vmware.com to try to download again (which cannot because it is on a closed network). It is meaningless to me, as you can see I have all versions of the installed client. My boss who also has the same installed versions can connect. Actually, I installed 5.1 client so that should be enough. VSphere shows the host to 5.1.0 - 2013.

  Why is this not with my Vsphere client?

  Looks like your Client vSphere is version 5.1.0b (source: Match VMware vCenter 5.1 component Versions |) Virten.NET) and your ESXi host is version 5.1 Patch 4 (KB VMware: Products VMware correlating build numbers to update level )

  You need download the vSphere Client 5.1 update 2 version to directly connect to this host.

• VM connection to iSCSI

  Hi people,

  I have linked to some Equallogic storage infrastructure ESX 3.5.  Each host has two connections of 1 GB in the private network iSCSI.  I need to build some new file servers with allowances of important storage (up to 2 TB).  I had discussed simply do big VMDK for file servers, or RDM but I'm looking more towards the use of iSCSI on the virtual machine software and link out to LUN.

  My question is, can I just make a new vSwitch that is presentable to the virtual machines that use the same vSwitch host uses for its iSCSI connection?  The existing iSCSI vSwitch has a port service console and vmkernel port and is not visible for virtual machines.  Is there any problem with the host and the guest using the same iSCSI connection? Wouldn't be better to add additional cards for the VMS to use for iSCSI?  So far virtual machines were all using VMDK so I have not crossed the bridge to have need of a virtual machine to connect to iSCSI.

  The road of iSCSI is not the best practice for this scenario, and I should come back on VMDK/RDM?

  Any suggestions are appreciated.  I'm hoping to migrate infrastructure to 4.1 this summer if this has an impact on the recommendations.

  Thank you!

  Hello and welcome to the forums.

  My question is, can I just make a new vSwitch that is presentable to the virtual machines that use the same vSwitch host uses for its iSCSI connection?

  It depends on.  If you have network adapters in each host, you can create a separate vSwitch and use this iSCSI comments traffic.  I prefer this approach, when resources are available.  There is some indication of this separation in the document 'WHAT SAN best practices for the deployment of Microsoft Exchange with VMware vSphere.  That being said, you can also just create a new VM on your existing vSwitch port group and go that route.

  The existing iSCSI vSwitch has a port service console and vmkernel port and is not visible for virtual machines. Is there any problem with the host and the guest using the same iSCSI connection?

  It might make things a little more difficult to solve, but it is certainly a simpler configuration to implement.

  Wouldn't be better to add additional cards for the VMS to use for iSCSI? So far virtual machines were all using VMDK so I have not crossed the bridge to have need of a virtual machine to connect to iSCSI.

  More isn't always better?  It really depends on the use current (and new), but it probably wouldn't be a bad idea.

  The road of iSCSI is not the best practice for this scenario, and I should come back on VMDK/RDM?

  The limit of 2 TB 512 bytes is a good reason to consider the initiator of comments.  This approach solves the limit of 2 TB 512 bytes, but it creates new complexities around VM portability, backup and other operational tasks.  Take these things into consideration as well.

  Good luck!

• How to connect to iSCSI SAN without compromising security

  Hello:

  How to enable server OSes (VMS or physical host computers) to connect and LUN iSCSI mount without compromising the safety of our ESX host?  We have a few Microsoft servers that need to use iSCSI initiators at Mount MON for MSCS.   We cannot use the ESX initiators because VMware doesn't support iSCSI to virtual storage with MSCS.  We have already read all the documentation and spoke with VMware support, so we know that our only option is to use the iSCSI initiators in Microsoft servers to connect to the LUN.

  Our concern is security.  If we let the servers use their iSCSI initiators to connect to the San, then they also won't have access to our service and the vkernels via the iSCSI network console?  ESX requires that you have a port the service console and the port of vkernel on the iSCSI network for each ESX box that you want to use the ESX initiator for.  We struggle to understand how to connect any machine (virtual or physical) to the iSCSI network to mount LUN without exposing our service and vkernels consoles.  I know that the best practice is to remove this VMs network for this exact reason, but of course many organizations also have physical servers (UNIX, Windows) who need to access their iSCSI SAN.  How people treat this?  How much of a security problem is it?  Is there a way to secure the service console and vkernel ports while allowing host ESX - no access to the SAN?  I know that many of you are facing this exact in your organizations situation, please help.  Obviously, it is not supposed that nobody uses their SAN iSCSI for anything else except for the ESX host.  I thank very you much.

  James

  Hello

  Check out this blog

  Use of firewall is certainly a step in the right direction for that. If you can't have separate iSCSI networks, then you will need to isolate nodes NON-ESX/VCB iSCSI using other mechanisms. I would certainly opt for firewalls or reduce the redundancy to just 2 network-by-network cards and not 4 to a single network.

  Someone at - it any other suggestions? Surely many ESX users share their iSCSI SAN with a lot of different systems and operating systems. Thanks again.

  They do, but they do not secure their networks for their VMs ESX iSCSI / other physical systems. You have asked a very important question and it's how to connect to iSCSI SAN without compromising safety. If the options are currently:

  1. Physically isolate

  2. Isolate using firewall

  Given that ESX speaks in clear text and does not support IPsec for iSCSI, you have very limited options that are available to you. The firewall you use and charge iSCSI, you send through it will determine if there is no latency. Yes its a cost extra, but if it is an independent network switches/ports/etc.

• HP OfficeJet 200 series Mobile: 3 Surface Pro WIndows 10 - can't re eastablish wi - fi direct connection

  Hello

  We managed to connect our Surface Pro 3 Windows 10 running on a mobile printers HP OfficeJet 200 series using a Wi - Fi Direct connection not wireless. The problem is that whenever we turn the printer off or go to sleep Surface pro cannot re esatablish of connection with the printer again after on. In the device and printers OfficeJet 200 is still there but greyed out and has a status to be offline even if the printer has been for a while.

  The only way to connect it must make the entire process of reconnection to the Wi - Fi direct connection, for example by typing in the code and wait to see the device is connected. It should not this printer to establish a connection with the surface pro automatically after power on, yet the pro Surface shows that the printer is offline and I know that I had direct Wi - Fi together to establish the connection automatically. Is there a solution for this.

  The problem only occurs when the printer stops and he must turn it off to save battery because what get out us them for field work.

  We discovered that the Wi - Fi Direct is not fully supported in Windows 10. The only way you can reconnect to Wi - Fi direct is if you connect to the printer that you connect to an access point Wi - Fi. If you do this your Wi - Fi direct printer connection will be reset. The downside is that your Surface Pro 3 will lose the internet connection.

  For us, that our solution is not to use Wi - Fi direct and use the Wi - Fi function. We connected the mobile series HP OfficeJet 200 to our iPhone hot spot and we also connected the Surface Pro iPhone hotspot. Whenever we connect our tablet to the hotspot, we can use the printer because the printer is always connected to the HotSpot.

• 1st generation ATV dead. Orange light but no screen and no resetting of distance.  I tried direct connection to Mac and iTunes open and he's not here.  Is it possible to restore to the factory without screen or remote work

  1st generation Apple TV is dead. Orange light but no screen and no resetting of distance. I tried direct connection to Mac and iTunes open and he's not here. Is it possible to restore to the factory without screen or remote workin

  I guess you tried maintained low men together for about 6 seconds - silver 1 ATV that will restart to the diagnostic partition but who would rely on the hard disk is functional and if it was ok that wouldn't work with the logic board failure.

  I guess you have not fed and attempted to restart.

  In case your AppleTV think it is paired with another remote try Menu and left arrow for 6 seconds - the light now intervenes when you press the buttons on the remote?

  Also, it could be in the video mode bad - try Menu and upward arrow together for 6 CES switch video modes, but implies that he actually started OK.

• H710 Bluetooth and Direct Connect?

  My H710 Bluetooth works with the direct connection on my Motorola i880 phone feature?

  It is correct. Audio in and out will work with any Bluetooth headset device and an iDEN device. However the PTT function must be done with the actual combined PTT during the use of these BT headsets. There's not a BT headset device I know for iDEN combined allowing PTT of the helmet apparatus itself.

  Captive headphones (corded) allow you to control PTT of the cord.

• Admiral: Unable to remap button Direct Connect

  Hey there!

  I am unable to remap my Direct Connect button for an app or something like the calendar. When I go to the menu > settings > applications > Quick Launch, I have no option to remap the side button, all I see are shortcuts for the letters a - z. Am I the only one having this problem = D?

  If you have active with Sprint DC you won't be able to remap the DC button on the side, because you will need to use the option of DC.

  If you do not DC active with Sprint you 'll be able to remap the DC button on the side that you wouldn't be able to use it to DC and are able to remap it to something more useful.

  For the DC remapping button when the domain controller is not active on your Admiral goto: settings-> Applications-> quick launch.

• Direct Connect with GPS or other active data

  I'm testing the possibility of using the functionality of direct connection to and from a phone while accessing other critical mission for my work tasks. We require the use of a tracking application that captures and sends GPS coordinates to a server via a data connection and also to connect to work through tasks via a web browser application. Direct connection cannot be launched on the phone while the user has any running application that uses data, it seems. It will work when the tracking application is closed and that the browser is slow and not loading pages, but doesn't if the browser will load a new page, the GPS application is running or even just Google maps. Can you get it someone please let me know if the i1 should be able to use Direct Connect when using other services that use data? I have been informed by Sprint that it is possible (two other applications can run on the data at the same time). The phone lacks a voice, only data plan.

  No, you can't. If something is using data on an iDEN connection, that's all. That's all it will do. It's just the nature of identity. If you want a phone that will have voice and data communications at the same time, you need to use CDMA or GSM.

• Update Windows using the two direct connection to proxy nd

  Use the two nd direct net connection by proxy, more time via proxy, is there a way I can configure update without changing the settings?

  am on windows 7 Home premium

  Please correct me if wrong, using "netsh winhttp import proxy IE" it says you can update via proxy, passing 'autamatically detected settings' proxy servers, will be here all the problems and errors in its conclusion/search for updates (does not search for updates error codeWindowsUpdate_80072EE2""WindowsUpdate_dt000")?

  Asked me to do this update of proxy (windows security essentials)

  The open command prompt window. [In Vista and Windows 7 you need to open the prompt as Administrator]

  2. type of this syntax: NETSH WINHTTP PROXY DEFINED (Insert here the number and proxy server) and press ENTER.

  Example: NETSH WINHTTP SET PROXY 1.1.1.1:8080
                         OR: NETSH WINHTTP SET MYPROXY .NET PROXY: 8080

  If his point is it normal that windows update as well as the WSE update fails with direct connection?

  happened with me with error msg error codeWindowsUpdate_80072EE2""WindowsUpdate_dt000"

• is it possible to establish a direct connection between two computers, one running on windows xp sp2 and other running on windows xp sp3?

  Hello
  I connected two computers, one running on windows xp sp2 and others running on windows xp sp3 via com using RS232 port via link Modem DFM-562E ++.
  I am able to dial numbers from a PC successfully.
  But when I do a direct link between them (one as a host, the other guest) through the com port, I get error 777.
  Is this because the two PC's using different service packs?
  Help, please.
  Thank you & best regards
  Ravi

  It is not the service pack - although you should have installed sp3 now.

  Your message is not clear: have you been able to connect successfully computers using your modem D-Link?  How did you do that?  Will there be a modem in the second computer?

  What cable are you using to establish a direct connection between the com ports on both computers?  If you have purchased this cable online, please provide a link to the site where you bought it.

  Please describe the physical connection between the two computers.  For example, this is how you connect to the Internet by dial-up services:

• LaserJet 2100 direct connect network assistance

  Hello techies.  I need help please.

  I have a HP Laserjet 2100 printer with a Jetdirect 600n (J3110A) card I am using with my plug for laptop Compaq V2615US as a direct connection.  It is without a server between the computer and the printer.

  Has been fighting for more than a week. Time for me to reach and ask for help.

  It is not recognized.

  Print a page of Cofiguration Jetdirect info I get the following information:

  LAN HW address: 001083F3A247

  External Loopback 03 error is NOT READY i/o card

  TCP/IP STATUS: 55 CURRENT BOOTP/DHCP

  HOST NAME: NPIF3A247

  IP address: 0.0.0.0

  IPX/SPX STAUUS: impossible to 29 net number of senses

  NAME OF THE NŒUD: NPIF3A247

  I was able to CLEAR the error of closure by doing a loopback plug.

  Using the network printer wizard I tried individually enter either the host name, IP address, LAN HW or name of the node above the address in the appropriate box.  NONE of them worked.

  Somewhere, I saw a reference to a supposed "default" IP address of the 192.0.0.192.  Tried it as an IP address, nothing helps. Received a message on the screen indicating that it was a 'default' address and suggesting that it was not fair.

  My computer's network card is a Realtek 8139/810 x Family card that is declared as working correctly by my computer and has already been used in the past in this way with a different printer.

  Key questions are:

  1 what I'm missing or doing wrong?

  2 - is a dead Jetdirect card?

  I can access a Jetdirect 620n card, but the application list I've seen doesn't have the list of the 2100 as a printer there.

  It would be worth to try myself to a substitution of the 620n for my 600n card?

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  Without any kind of switch between the printer and the computer, you absolutely have a cable modem Simulator for your connection "ethernet".  You will NOT be able to use a standard ethernet cable.
   
  Once you find this crossover cable and that you ran a test on the printer print to the default IP address (read the printer or jet direct instructions on the card to print or otherwise find the Jetdirect card settings) then you can create a new "printer port" using the IP address of the card direct jet to join the two.    192.0.0.192 isn't usually an IP address by any device (I've never seen anywhere.)  It would more likely be something like 192.168.1.xxx.
   
  Also, you should be able to buy a switch 4 ports and do the same thing with standard ethernet cables.  Plug the computer and jet direct card printer on the switch.

• Discover device directly connected to the cisco ASA

  How do I know which is directly connected to an ASA interface? I'm looking for some commands that can be executed on the SAA to find the directly connected Cisco device.

  Thank you

  Boudou

  Unfortunately it is not available on SAA for you tell what device is directly connected to it, there is no 'see the neighboring cdp' on SAA unfortunately.

  You can check the ARP table and see which is the next hop, but who would only give the layer 3 device, such that there could be a switch between the two institutions.

• FCoE directly connect to VNX5300 with no switch zoning

  I was wondering if anyone has any experience with this unit or a similar facility. I find no decent documentation to help us decide if it is a legitimate set upward for a production of about 16 servers 3 chassis environment. Our expert Cisco has ever put up a UCS environment with a direct connection to the San via FCoE and intuitively is against it, as we do not expect to use a switch to zoning.  Is there a real risk in the present? It will support in the future?

  Hi Henry,.

  If you look at the following document:

  http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/docs/switches/Datacenter/MDS9000/interoperability/matrix/Matrix8.html

  See point number 3, the direct model to support tethering still requires a SDM or N5k upstream to provide this information.
