  I'm looking for help to share best practices to upgrade the Site Recovery Manager (SRM), if someone can summarize the preparatory tasks?

  Hello

  Please check the content below, you may find useful.

  Please refer to the URL: Documentation VMware Site Recovery Manager for more detailed instructions.

  Important

  Check that there is no cleanup operation pending on recovery plans and there is no problem of configuration for the virtual machines that protects the Site Recovery Manager.

  1 all the recovery plans are in ready state.

  2 the protection status of all protection groups is OK.

  3 the status of the protection of all the individual virtual machines in the protection groups is OK.

  4 the recovery of all groups of protection status is ready.

  5. If you have configured the advanced settings in the existing installation, note settings you configured before the upgrade.

  6 the vCenter local and remote server instances must be running when you upgrade the Site Recovery Manager.

  7 upgrade all components Server vCenter Site Recovery Manager on a site until you upgrade vCenter Server and Site Recovery Manager on the other site.

  8 download the setup of Site Recovery Manager file in a folder on the machines to be upgraded the Site Recovery Manager.

  9 make sure no other facilities-\no updates windows restarts done shoud

  Procedure:

  1. connect to the machine on the protected site on which you have installed the Site Recovery Manager.

  2. backup the database of Site Recovery Manager by using the tools that offers the database software.

  3. (optional) If you upgrade of Site Recovery Manager 5.0.x, create a 64-bit DSN.

  4 upgrade the instance of vCenter Site Recovery Manager server that connects to vCenter Server 5.5.

  If you upgrade a vCenter Server and Site Recovery Manager 4.1.x, you upgrade the instances of vCenter Server and Site Recovery Manager server in the correct sequence until you can upgrade to Site Recovery Manager 5.5.

  a upgrade vCenter Server 4.1.x to 5.0.x server.

  b Update Site Recovery Manager of 4.1.x to 5.0.x.

• Possible values range Setup for essbase for reports substitution variables

  Hi all
  
  I tried to define a substitution variable that holds the current month and the previous in current year called curryrmnths. For example, the current month is March, the value of the variable must be Jan, Feb, Mar.
  
  I am trying to use this variable for reports in order to make dynamic reports, instead of manually enetering the new month each time. (We use the reports financial hyperion).
  
  I tried different syntaxes like,
  
  Jan: Mar
  Jan, Feb, Mar
  "Jan, Feb, Mar.
  
  But none seems not to work, they arise while setting in the reports.
  
  Can anyone suggest a solution? How a range of values is dynamically adjustable in a report?
  
  Your answers would be appreciated.
  
  Thank you.

  Take a look at these discussions - your condition has been discussed quite a bit more in the forum of queries and reports:

• Code of script to the code for the class paper - best practices

  I'm starting to put my code in the document class, instead of on the main timeline, and I have a few questions. When I was using the timeline, everything was linear. It is easy to know what things would begin and end because of the way the playhead moves. With the document class, I noticed for the first time that the functions are performed at the same time, if you call one after the other. What would be the best way to make them run in the order? Let's say I have the functions f1, f2, and f3. I guess at the end of the f1, I could call f2 and at the end of f2 call f3 or use event listeners, but is it the right way to do it? At the time wherever you arrive at f3, are not always 'open' because they did not complete f1 and f2?

  do you want some significant time to sweat between execution of the f1, f2 and f3?

  If so, use a timer or a timer.  If not, then just call sequentially. with a few exceptions (mainly when loading some outside (flash) file synchronously executes the code):

  F1();

  F2();

  F3();

• Best Practice Guide for stacked N3024 switches

  Is there a guide to BP for the configuration of the 2 N3024s stacked for the connections to the server, or is the same eql iscsi configuration guide.

  I'm trying to:

  1) reduce to a single point of failure for rack.

  (2) make good use of LACP for 2 and 4 nic server connections

  (3) use a 5224 with it's 1 lacp-> n3024s for devices of unique connection point (ie: internet router)

  TIA

  Jim...

  Barrett pointed out many of the common practices suggested for stacking. The best practice is to use a loop for stacking and distributing your LAG on multiple switches in the stack, are not specific to any brand or model of the switch. The steps described in the guides of the user or the white papers generally what is the recommended configuration.
  http://Dell.to/20sLnnc

  Many of the best practices scenarios will change of network-to-network based around what is currently plugged into the switch, and the independent networks needs / requirements of business. This has created a scenario where the default settings on a switch are pre-programmed for what is optimal for a fresh switch. Then recommended are described in detail in white papers for specific and not centralized scenarios in a single document of best practices that attempts to cover all scenarios.

  Express.ypH N-series switches are:
  -RSTP is enabled by default.
  -Green eee-mode is disabled by default.
  -Frother is enabled by default.
  -Storm control is disabled by default.

  Then these things can change based on the towed gear and needs/desires of the whole of society.

  For example, Equallogic has several guides that recommendations of configuration detail to different switches.
  http://Dell.to/1ICQhFX

  Then on the side server, you would like to look more like the OS/server role. For example a whitepaper VMware that has some network settings proposed when running VMware in an iSCSI environment.
  http://bit.LY/2ach2I7

  I suggest making a list of the technology/hardware/software, which is used on the network. Then use this list to acquire white papers for specific areas. Then use these white papers best practices in order to ensure the switch configuration is optimal for the task required by the network.

• Looking for a best practices guide: complete replacement cluster

  Hello

  I was in charge as the complete replacement of our current environment hardware ESXi 5.0 U2 with a new cluster of servers running 5.1.

  Here are the basics:

  Currently, HP Blade Server chassis with 6 hypervisors running ESXi 5.0 U2, the company license, about 100 or so virtual running different operating systems - mainly MS 2003 R2 to 2008 R2, stores the data on without connected through ethernet connections 1 GB.

  Intended to run 7 independent servers as a cluster with ESXi 5.1, license of the company, connections to SAN be improved to 10 GB ethernet or fiber.  The range of virtual machines in the importance of 'can be restarted after hours' to ' should not be restarted or that will cost us money service interruptions.  (Looking for the options live - migrate if possible although I have my doubts, it will be an option given the cluster plans)

  I'm looking for a Guide to best practices (or a combination of the guides) which will help me to determine how best to plan the migration of VM - especially in light of the fact that the new cluster will be not part of the existing.  Given also the fact we upgrade is unable (due to problems on the chassis firmware) 5.1 before this work...

  Any pointers in the right direction would be great - look no no not a handout, just people signs

  See you soon.

  Welcome to the community - from vCenter 5.1 can manage an ESXi 5.0 host just one at a time do guests 5.0 5.1 and vmotion the VMs to new hosts - environment as the two environment will see the same SAN it will be necessary for storage vmotion.

• vSpere 5 Networking of best practices for the use of 4 to 1 GB NIC?

  Hello

  I'm looking for a networking of best practices for the use of 4-1 GB NIC with vSphere 5. I know there are a lot of good practice using 10 GB, but our current config does support only 1 GB. I need to include the management, vMotion, Virtual Machine (VM) and iSCSi. If there are others you would recommend, please let me know.

  I found a diagram that resembles what I need, but it's for 10 GB. I think it works...

  (I had this pattern HERE - rights go to Paul Kelly)

  My next question is how much of a traffic load is each object take through the network, percentage wise?

  For example, 'Management' is very small and the only time where it is in use is during the installation of the agent. Then it uses 70%.

  I need the percentage of bandwidth, if possible.

  If anyone out there can help me, that would be so awesome.

  Thank you!

  -Erich

  Without knowing your environment, it would be impossible to give you an idea of the uses of bandwidth.

  That said if you had about 10-15 virtual machines per host with this configuration, you should be fine.

• NetApp Best Practice and independent labels

  Hi, Best practices for VMware NetApp recommends, transitional and temporary data such as comments

  pagefile operating system, temporary files and swap files, must be moved to another disk virtual one

  different data store as snapshots of this type of data can consume a large amount of storage in a very short time

  
  
  

  high time due to the rate of change (that is, to create a data store dedicated to transitional and temporary for all VMS data without other types of data or VMDK residing on it).

  NetApp recommends also configure the VMDK residing in these stores data as "Independent persistent" disks in vCenter. Once configured, the transitional and temporary data VMDK will be excluded from the VMware vCenter snapshot and copy snapshot of NetApp initiated by SnapManager for Virtual Infrastructure.

  I would like to understand the impact of this best practice - can anyone advise on the following:

  • If the above is implemented:
    
    
    • Snapshots will work via vcenter?
      
      
    • Snapshots will work via the Netapp Snapmanager tool?
      
      
    • The snapsot includes all of VM disks? If this is not the case, what is the consequence of not having the whole picture of the VM?
      
      
    • The snapshot of vcenter can restore ok?
      
      
    • Netapp snapshot can restore ok?
      
      
  • What impact the foregoing has on the process of return if using a backup product that relies on snapshot technology?
    
    

  Thank you

  
  
  
  
  
  

  Hi Joe

  These recommendations is purely to save storage space when the replication or backup.

  For example, you can move your *.vswap (VM swap file) file to a different data store. NetBackup can do instant IVMS of the warehouses of data and with this configuration, you can exclude this particular data store

  This is also true if you create a data store dedicated for OS Swap files, mark independent so that vCenter not relieve these VMDK.

  I did a project with NetApp on boxes of SAP production

  We moved all the files in *.vswap to warehouses of data created and dedicated RDM for the OS Swap locations

  We actually used the SnapDrive one NetApp technology to suspend the DB SQL on the ROW before the ROW is broken, but I won't go into too much detail

  To answer your questions (see the comments in the quote)

  • If the above is implemented:

    • The snapsot includes all of VM disks? If this is not the case, what is the consequence of not having the whole picture of the VM? -No. - *.vswap file is created when the VM is started (no need to backup)

  -OS Swap VMDK of location must be re-created in the case of restoration. WIndows will be

  always Prime if the Swap disk is missing, and you specify the new location of swap.

  • What impact the foregoing has on the process of return if using a backup product that relies on snapshot technology? -These backup products use vCenter snapshots and because the vCenter snapshots works 100% it shouldn't be a problem.

• Implementation of best practices

  We have a budget tight but would like to be considered for implementation, as many best practices of VMware as possible. We realize that, with our budget, we will not be able to implement many of them but I would like to get the most, most critics made. What do you consider the ABSOLUTE MUST have best practices to an environment that includes the following:

  6 hosts ESX3.5 and 1 VC2.5 with the license server Center. Each host has 6 physical network interface cards. We have licenses for vMotion, DRS, and HA. Our current setup is:

  vSwitch0 is home to a group of virtual computer and Console of Service ports with 2 network cards

  vSwitch1 is home port for VM group

  vSwitch3 is home to port VM group

  vSwitch4 is a dedicated vMotion network

  Physically, our hosts are connected to a single physical Nortel SwitchStack affected ports to the VLAN

  We have our virtual machines on different subnets 3

  This infrastructure is inside our firewall. We have a demilitarized zone, but it is not virtual.

  Looking for candid suggestions.

  The vSwitch is an object that exists in the memory of an ESX server.  Therefore, the exchanges on this vSwitch belong within this memory object.  This vSwitch keeps his stats, the mac entity table.  With the help of a 2nd vSwitch creates a 2nd object that does not interact/interface with the first.  Then, it adds another layer of separation between the information.  Gaps are a good thing for this reason.

• New to ColdFusion - Question about best practices

  Hello.

  I've been programming in Java / c# / PHP for the past two years or so, and as of late have really taken taste to ColdFusion.

  The question I have is around the effective separation of the code, and if there are any best practices that are preached by using this language. While I was learning Java, I was taught that it is better to have several layers in your code; example: Front end (JSP or ASP)-> Business Objects-> support-> database. All the code I've written using these three languages followed this simple structure, most of the time.

  As I dive deeper into ColdFusion, most of the examples I've seen of vetrans of this language really does incorporate a lot of separation. And I don't mean the simple ' here's what this function only "type of online examples where most of the code is written in a single file. I was able to see the projects that were created with this language.

  I work with a few developers who have written in ColdFusion for a few years and put the question to them as well. Their response was something to the effect, ' I don't know if there is any recommended for this, but it really doesn't seem like there is really a problem, make calls like that. "

  I searched online for any type of best practices or discussions around that and have not seen much.

  I still consider myself a bit of a noobling when it comes to programming, but best practice is important to me for any language that I learn more about.

  Thanks for the help.

  You might want to take a look at a number of major frameworks available for

  ColdFusion.

  FW/1 II, model glue, CFWheels, ColdBox and Mach.  They do a great job of

  giving you a path for the separation of code, best practices, etc.

• Best practices Apple ID

  I help the family members and others with their Apple products. Probably the problem number one revolves around Apple ID I saw users follow these steps:

  (1) share IDs among the members of the family, but then wonder why messages/contacts/calendar entries etc are all shared.

  (2) have several Apple IDs willy-nilly associated with seemingly random devices. The Apple ID is not used for anything.

  (3) forget passwords. They always forget passwords.

  (4) is that I don't really understand. They use an e-mail from another system (gmail.com, hotmail.com, etc) as their Apple ID. Invariably, they will use a different password for their Apple ID than the one they used for other email, so that they are constantly confused about which account to connect to.

  I have looked around for an article on best practices for creating and using Apple ID, but could not find such a position. So I thought I would throw a few suggestions. If anyone knows of a list or wants to suggest changes/additions please feel free. Here are the best practices for normal circumstances, i.e. not cooperate accounts etc.

  1. every person has exactly 1 Apple ID.

  2. do not share Apple ID - share content.

  3. do not use an email address of another counts as your Apple ID.

  4. When you create a new Apple ID, don't forget to complete the secondary information to https://appleid.apple.com/account/manage. It is EXTREMELY important questions your email of relief and security.

  5. the last step is to collect the information that you entered in a document and save to your computer AND print and store it somewhere safe.

  Suggestions?

  I agree with no. 3, it is no problem with using a addressed no iCloud as the primary ID, indeed, depending on where you set up your ID, you may have no choice but to.

• Best practices for something like this

  Working on a project after learning of "Garbage collection" and some other things of this forum (thank you all) I was wondering if someone could look over this piece of code and tell me if Im using best practices or if it's just sloppy as hell and im going to this topic wrong.

  ALSO, I understand to delete eventListeners and children dynamically added to the scene. But you need to remove things such as interpolations and timers...

  If I have something with identifier = gcnew instantiate something ();  Do I always need to remove what little whatever it is to keep everything clean?

• Best practices for tags

  Hello
  
  In the bundled applications Tags are used in most applications. For example. in App Customer Tracker, we can add tags to a customer where these tags are stored in a varchr2 column in the Customers Table.
  In my case, I've pre-defined tags real estate (Real Estate) in a table of research called TAGS. For example, Full floor, furnished, equipped, duplexes, attached... What is the best practice for tag properties:
  1 - to store these tags in a varchar column in the table of PROPERTIES using the Shuttle box.
  OR
  2. to store in a third table Eg, PROPERTIES_TAGS (ID PK, FK property-ID, TAG_ID FK), then use the LISTAGG function to show tags in one line in the report properties.
  OR
  You have a better option?
  
  Kind regards

  In my case, I've pre-defined tags real estate (Real Estate) in a table of research called TAGS. For example, Full floor, furnished, equipped, duplexes, attached...

  These seem to be two different use cases. In the bundled applications tags allow end users to join free-form metadata to the data for their own needs (they are sometimes called "folk taxonomies"). Users can use tags for different purposes or different tags for the same purpose. For example, I could add 'Wednesday', 'Thursday' or 'Friday' tags customers because these are the days that they receive their deliveries. For the same purpose, you could mark the same customers '1', '8' and '15' by the numbers of road trucks making deliveries. You can use 'Monday' to indicate that the client is closed on Mondays...

  In your application you assign to the known properties of predefined attributes. It is a model of standard attribute 1:M. their view using the metaphor of the label is not equivalent to the user of free-form tags.

  What is the best practice for tag properties:
  1 - to store these tags in a varchar column in the table of PROPERTIES using the Shuttle box.

  If you do this, how can you:

• Search for furnished duplex properties effectively?
  
• Change in the world "mounted" to "integrated"?
  
• Ratio of the number of properties, broken down by full floor, double-sided, equipped...

  OR
  2. to store in a third table Eg, PROPERTIES_TAGS (ID PK, FK property-ID, TAG_ID FK), then use the LISTAGG function to show tags in one line in the report properties.

  As Why use Look up Table, shows the correct way to proceed. It allows the data to be indexed for efficient extraction, and issues such as those above should be dealt with simply by using joins and grouping.

  You might want to examine the possibility of eliminating the PK ID and use an index table organized for this.

  OR
  You have a better option?

  I'd also look carefully your data model. Make sure that you're not flirting with the anti-pattern VAE. Some/all of these values are not simply the attributes on the property?
