  There are no do any server, all with 3 esx 3.5 update installation.

• Error 1067 by starting the VMware Virtual Center Server service after the upgrade to VCenter 4.1

  I've started with VCenter 4.0 update online success in 4.1u1

  but now I can not start the service with Error 1067 by starting the VMware Virtual Center Server service.

  I did the upgrade online in VCenter 4.1u1 with this iso file VMware-VIMSetup-all - 4.1.0 - 345042.iso and now the entire production is declining.

  I use SQL Server 2005 32-bit as the database.

  Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated please?

  I guess it's all true by:

  http://KB.VMware.com/kb/1022104

  And what exactly is a failure, is the DB on a different server or living on the vCenter Server?

• customization error "Sysprep is not installed on the server of virtual center for the model you have selected.

  Hi all

  Need your help with customization of the script here is the steps I've done so far

  1.I have created a virtual machine with Windows XP Professional as the operating system installed VMware Tools / VMware view agent then I added the virtual machine to the domain and created a template called (winXPtemp)

  2. According to article http://www.VMware.com/support/VC/doc/c12prepcustomize.html#1030366 I downloaded the Q257813_w2k_spl_x86_en.exe and the same extract. I force my VC server find the path as mentioned in article

  C:\ [VirtualCenter_installation_directory]\resources\windows\sysprep\1.1 so copied the files extracted to the location C:\Program Files\VMware\Infrastructure\VirtualCenter Server\resources\windows

  3 then I copied and extracted the file \support\tools\deploy.cab on the windows 2003 CD and copied the sysprep files extracted to the following location on the VC Server

  C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\VMware\VMware VirtualCenter\sysprep\xp

  4. After you have done that, I've created a script under customization script called "testsript".

  5 Note until now I have not created a pool of resources as requires it the deployment of only 4 VM on an ESX Server with script customization. The data store for the virtual machine is a 100 GB LUN from a 2050 of FAS of NetApp iSCSI

  6. now when I create an automatic pool when I select the script that I created in step 4, and then click then it gives me an error "Sysprep is not installed on the server of virtual center for the model you have selected. Sysprep on the server installation.

  Troubleshooting done by me:

  I have readded the VC Server Manager to view but it force worked

  Thanks in advance for your help

  Kind regards

  v

  If I remember correctly the location for XP should go to: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\VMware\VMware VirtualCenter\sysprep\xp

  For XP SP2 Sysprep files can be downloaded from the Microsoft site and are called

  Windows XP SP2 deployment tools

  The article you linked was VirtualCenter 1.x. Since you have given a version number of VirtualCenter I assumed it was 2.x or later.

• Error al licenciar esx 3.5, virtual center of the host y

  Hola

  I have 2 esx 3.5 servidores y Virtual Centre of the United Nations.

  In each of esx, Guerra el .lic (single host) he is ok, appears as licenciado (es standard esx).

  Instalo UN virtual center y al instalar doy el fichero .lic Québec he generated in the web of vmware (centralized).

  VOY a cada esx y pongo ip del Centre virtual donde pone 'use license server', me dice algo asi como no hay to licenses validad if the doy tr o no, the digo if, pero no licenciado appears.

  He desinstaldo y vuelto a instalar el servidor of licenses, releido el archivo .lic... no hay manera.

  También al of ido he virtual center a "administration", he marcado "change host...". ', Center Management Server virtual y ahi, pero nada. If Quebec me appears ahi al dar al oton "administration", then b has the 'licenses' las features pestana y en 'virtual center foundation manager' in 'cost' pone server 1, remaining pone cero, y pone total 1.

  El host appears como desconectado al anadirlo al virtual Center try not there as none is can por las licenses.

  Saludos

  If el otro no you already licenciar lo're porque el vCenter no tiene fired para asignarle. Of how many CPUs are you fired? How many has released there? How many you is? ESTOS datos los puedes ver en el servidor of licenses y con the utility of licenses.

  We must PD. SER Malo tanto yo como mokymura by no received al menos haber nor a punto por todas our responses?   The Sin ofender Akumal, pero el reason por el that saw tanto in el tema are because if no 'premiamos' of alguna forma the people that colabora y ayuda amendments, este foro is "cae".

  Authd.proxy.vpxa - nfcssl = ' vmware - vpxa:vpxa - nfcssl.

  ------------------------------------

  This problem occurs when a carriage return is missing from/etc/vmware/config. To resolve this issue, go to edit/etc/vmware/config:

• Beyond the performance data not available to a host through Virtual Center

  
  Hello

  I have an ESXi host that relates to the ' No Data Available ' under his paw through Virtual Center performance. Fine appears real-time performance data, but the latest data are not appear and give the error as "No Data Available".

  Within the cluster of 4 hosts, alone is to have the point above. Others are appearing fine performance data.

  In another cluster host ESXi too connected to the same vCenter, I see one of the host is to have a similar question.

  I checked:

  • All work Rollup SQL is run successfully the default schedule.
  • Restarted vpxa service connection to the host directly using the vsphere client.

  I followed the KB article http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 2007388 . as suggested in the article when I run the Sub SQL query I see there is no data within who. 

  exec sp_spaceused vpx_hist_statx

  name	lines	reserved	data	index_size	unused
  VPX_HIST_STAT1	NULL VALUE	NULL VALUE	NULL VALUE	0 KB	0 KB

  The output is similar (no data) if I run these queries:

  exec sp_spaceused vpx_hist_stat2

  exec sp_spaceused vpx_hist_stat3

  exec sp_spaceused vpx_hist_stat4

  Current configuration:

  ESXi 5.1.0 799733

  vCenter Server 5.1.0 Build 1123961

  Please help solve this.

  I actually planned for the downtime of the host and restarted it.

  Although loading performance data now.

  Thank you!

• How to record a custom message / event in the virtual center of the virtual machine

  Is it possible to record a personalized message in the virtual center of the VM?

  I use a vCLI script to reset a virtual machine. I want to report where (PC) this script is launched.

  And it would be great if it is possible to report to the event list or task of the virtual machine that will be reset.

  You can relate from where and which this script is initiated by the following script

  #!/usr/bin/perl -w
  # CustomEvent.pl
  
  #
  use strict;
  use warnings;
  use VMware::VILib;
  use VMware::VIRuntime;
  
  my %opts = (
     vmname => {
        type => "=s",
        help => "Name the virtual machine associated with the event",
        required => 1,
     },
  );
  
  Opts::add_options(%opts);
  
  Opts::parse();
  Opts::validate();
  Util::connect();
  
  my $vmname  = Opts::get_option('vmname');
  my $username, my $compname;

• Best way to extend the drive C on Virtual Center VM - ESX 3.5.0 213352

  I am trying to increase the C drive 10 GB to 15 GB on our VM virtual Center. Is this VM on an ESX 3.5.0 host 213352. I went to change the settings on the machine virtual and changed the drive C 10-> 15 GB vmdk. No problem. I then connected to the virtual computer and went Mgmt of Windows disk that shows the C drive in NTFS base 10 GB with a 4.99 GB unallocated volume space beside him. I then went to Diskpart and entered the command line and selected the C volume range. I received the following error message "the volume you have selected cannot be extended. BTW - the page file is located on drive E and not on the C drive. This virtual machine has C and E only.

  I used the VM converter in the past, but it will not work in this case because the VM I want to choose to expand the C drive is the virtual Center VM. Any ideas on why diskpart will not work? Other solutions? Thank you!

  You can also use extpart, allowing that you extend without interruption

  .. .or the old way of fashion with a helper VM

  http://vmprofessional.com/index.php?content=2k3resize

  Make sure that the virtual machine has no active snapshots.
