• 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.

• VMware vCenter Orchestrator Server service cannot be started

  After doing a clean install on the build version 5.1.1 2942, the VCO service will not start. All points configurations are green, VC to the top and running, the service account used for the service of a member of the local administrators. The event in the system log id reported as 7024, below error text:

  If anyone has an idea, please advise. Thank you.

  Thanks for the tip. I was able to start the service by stopping the Foglight Quest agent running on the box first, then by restarting VCO. The article stresses that increase the RAM would help, however the virtual machine has been set to 10 GB, with abundance available for the JAVA virtual machine, but I always saw the issues mentioned in the wrapper.log file.

• VMware vCenter service stops with size of DB SQL errors

  Hello

  We run VMware vCenter 4.1 with 3 ESX hosts and VMs. 50 vCenter runs on Windows 2008 R2, SQL 2005 Express SP2.

  Yesterday, our virtual backup failed, saying: it could not connect to the vCenter agent. When I have looged question, it appeared that he had stopped the vCenter Server service. Upward on the continuation of the investigation, it appears that the SQL Express database had reached 4 GB in size, which is limited, and this caused the vCenter fall service.

  I checked some of the forum posts and have accomplished the following:

  • Define a retention policy of database for tasks and events, it is initially unchecked, but I checked and set it to 90 days in the beginning and now 30 days.
    
  • Found a script on the VMware forum called VCDB_table_cleanup_MSSQL_V4.X.sql that can clean the database. I put it to delete the old data (change of SET @DELETE_DATA = 1) 90 days and he kidnapped 130 000 + lines.
    
  • Performed a narrowing of the database & file shrink on the data file - I was only 9 MB back?
    
  • Performed a narrowing of the database & file shrink on the log file - it right back a little more, about 100 MB.
    
  • Changed the size of the log file of 460 MB to 1024 MB, in database properties > settings files.
    

  However, even after all of the above, when I reboot the server, or stop and start the service vCenter, the following errors are recorded in the application log:

  Due to the size of the database, the query may take time. I suggest that you let run and just be patient.

  Another option is to upgrade to a version of SQL Server 2005/2008 'complete' (see http://kb.vmware.com/kb/7960893), or - where this is an option for you - to migrate towards the currently experimentally supported (starting with vCenter Server 4.1 Update 1) version SQL Express 2008 which supports up to 10 GB per database. (see http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vsphere4/r40/vsp_compatibility_matrix.pdf) Although there are 32 and 64 bit in compatibility matrix, it seems that there are currently problems with 64-bit (see http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1036085)

• Determine which user added an ESX host to vCenter

  I'm trying to figure out if there is anyway to determine which user has added a vCenter ESX host using the api.  I don't see this information as any sort of property of the host object.  Any help would be appreciated!

  Paul

  You can retrieve this and other events by using the event manager and the queryEvents() - http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-50/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.vmware.wssdk.apiref.doc_50%2Fvim.event.EventManager.html

  There is no property associated with a host ESX (i) on which the user added to vCenter and since it seems that you are interested in a specific host ESX (i), which can help narrow down the query.

  Attached, that is, remove / add a vSphere SDK for Perl script that will return the user who added the host to vCenter, you should get a response because it uses the Ref object managed the host ESX (i) and that changes each time you have.

  Here is an example of course:

  ./findUserAddHost.pl--serveur root vcenter50-4 - vihost - vesxi50 - 3.primp username - industries.com
  Enter the password:
  added root host vesxi50 - 3.primp - industries.com to datacenter datacenter2

  It seems that you have two different processor speeds. Try the VCA mode and also check the BIOS version you and make sure they match.

• Adding esxi host to vcenter

  Hello

  I can't add a 5.1 ESXi host to VCenter server (5.1). When I try to add the host to vcenter, I get an error message "a general system error occurred, VMODL incompatibility between VC and ESXi."

  Need help.

  Usually this error appears when the ESXi host, you're trying to add has a newer version than vCenter.  Depending on your case, both have same version. In fact, it should work fine without any problem.

  Can you please confirm the ESXi and vCenter versions? Also can you please post numbers comes together?

• Access error in the status of material on the hosts to vCenter

  I have a virtual machine on one of my hosts, 64-bit Windows 2008 SP2, with of VMware vCenter Server installed on it. I connect to manage all my guests. I changed the NETBIOS name of the virtual from Windows machine to comply with the new standards of the convention of naming on our network, and now I have the following problem when you try to access the page of material status on my hosts. It works fine if I connect directly to the host, but no longer works via vCenter... Someone knows how to fix this? It must have something to do with the change of name, because it worked fine before the change.

• Error connecting to the server by using the Client VMware vCenter

  When you attempt to connect to vCenter server using vSphere client, I get this message:

  "a general error has occurred: authorize the exception."

  However, if I log on the vCenter server locally and use a local Windows account in vSphere Client to connect to vCenter Server on the same computer - it works OK.

  There is obviously a problem with what happens when you use active directory to authenticate a user who connects with the VMware vCenter server client.

  Someone has seen this before or have any ideas?

  Thank you
