• Uplinks ESX on a blade of UCS

  After installing ESX on UCS Blade (adapter type is Palo, the number of network cards is 2) sometimes I see that the uplinks are vmnic2 and vmnic3 (output of esxcfg-NICS - l)

  Where are the output of esxcfg-vswitch - l shows the uplink as vmnic0, and it also generates a warning saying there is no such thing as vmnic0.

  This happens not all the time. Anyone know why this might be happening?

  I saw this happen a little when you do not have NICs as the first devices in the vNIC/vHBA Placement. By default, we put the HBAs first sometimes ESX doesn't like it and will the NPI as vmnic2 and 3. If you move the network above the HBA cards, they come as a vmnic0 and vmnic1. I have always to reorganize and put my NIC before my storage.

• Script to display information by hostname ESX hardware

  Hello

  This is my first post, because I'm new to powershell and trying to get my head around all this.

  I have a script where I want to put together different values for ESX hardware, but also to display the associated host name. I have the job of script but I want to display the MemorySize in GB rounded to 0 decimal places, for example 12.1234567890 GB displayed as 12 GB. I can't understand how this go up.

  Script is the following:

  $report = @ () $virtualhosts = get-VMhost foreach ($vhost in $virtualhosts) {$objects $vhost = | get-view | foreach-object {$_.summary.hardware} foreach ($values in $objects) {$row = "" |}} SELECT name, vendor, model, memorysize, CpuModel, CpuMhz, NumCpuPkgs, NumCpuCores, NumCpuThreads, NumNics, NumHBAs $row.name = $vhost.name $row.vendor = $values.vendor $row.model = $values.model $ROW. MemorySize = $values. MemorySize/1 GB $row. CpuModel = $values. CpuModel $row.cpuMhz = $values. CPUMhz $row. NumCpuPkgs = $values. NumCpuPkgs $row. NumCpuCores = $values. NumCpuCores $row. NumCpuThreads = $values. NumCpuThreads $row. NumNics = $values. NumNics $row. NumHBAs = $values. NumHBAs

  {{$report += $row}} $report

  Of a single line of command, I can get the output to round to the 0 decimal places but cannot work out how to associate the host name (see the command line below)

  Get-VMHost | Get-View | ForEach-Object {$_.} Summary.Hardware} | Select-object vendor, model, @{N = "Memory (GB)"; "} E = {[math]: Round ((($_.))} {{((MemorySize) / 1 GB), 0)}}, CpuModel, CpuMhz, NumCpuPkgs, NumCpuCores, NumCpuThreads, NumNics, NumHBAs

  but can't figure how to do it is the script of foreach. Would be grateful for any help.

  Thank you.

  You can use the cmdlet Get-View to get the HostSystem objects.

  Then, it's just a matter to fill all the properties in the $row variable.

  For PowerShell formatting has the handy format operator (-f).

  See Setting Digital Formats serial Master PowerShell of Tobias.

  This would be an example of a script that does what I think you want to do

  $report = @()
  Get-View -ViewType HostSystem | % {
       $row = "" | select name, vendor, model, memorysize , CpuModel, CpuMhz, NumCpuPkgs, NumCpuCores, NumCpuThreads, NumNics, NumHBAs
       $row.name = $_.name
       $row.vendor = $_.Summary.Hardware.vendor
       $row.model = $_.Summary.Hardware.model
       $ROW.MemorySize = "{0:F0}" -f ($_.Summary.Hardware.MemorySize/1GB)
       $row.CpuModel = $_.Summary.Hardware.CpuModel
       $row.cpuMhz = $_.Summary.Hardware.CPUMhz
       $row.NumCpuPkgs = $_.Summary.Hardware.NumCpuPkgs
       $row.NumCpuCores = $_.Summary.Hardware.NumCpuCores
       $row.NumCpuThreads = $_.Summary.Hardware.NumCpuThreads
       $row.NumNics = $_.Summary.Hardware.NumNics
       $row.NumHBAs = $_.Summary.Hardware.NumHBAs
  
       $report += $row
  }
  $report
  

  Note that you can also do

  Get-VmHost | Get-View
  

  Instead of

  Get-View -ViewType HostSystem
  

  But the first format is faster if you have a large number of ESX servers.

• should I wait for Intel or AMD for performance of Lightroom?

  I'm building a new system and I wonder which CPU will get the best performance in Lightroom.

  The general feeling I get, is that I should go with Intel because Lightroom prefer some fast cores compared to the hearts of many and slower AMD. And I'm leaning towards a low i7 range.

  But before I go and buy, I want to listen to what other people have to say about Intel vs AMD for performance of Lightroom. You think, while one is better and why?

  Hi Swapjim,

  Please go through the below discussion for the same.

• Is there a difference first and after the Performance of the effects in terms of CPU intel or AMD?

  Is there a difference first and after the Performance of the effects in terms of CPU intel or AMD?  Forget about the speed issue, assume that the processors are of comparable speed and also assume that the system is built beyond recommended configuration.  When it comes to reliablility and performance of each processor, work and managing data with CS5 is there a difference?  I am looking to build a computer with several CPU i7 so if outside as well (unless you can convince me that don't have a single processor is better than building with multiple) thanks for reading and I look forward to any help you can give me!  Bow.

  The test of disk i/o is 59; 58; 00, the MPEG2-DVD test is 2; 36; 04 and H.264 test - BR is 52 00

  What does it mean in real life? Hard to say how to look your timelines of real life and how leading practice comparisons, but I think that the H.264 timeline is much more demanding that 95% of users would meet. If you have CS5, you can download the ZIP file and take a look at all the effects and transitions used with alterations of Bezier curves in many and with all the different formats used in a single edit.

  There is one thing that you should keep in mind. The MPEG2-DVD H.264 - BR are directed to display the CPU/GPU performance and memory, but in real life, exporting to BRD involves also large (20 + GB) exports the disk, one of the things not measured in these two tests. This means that the high score of Juggernaugt in the H.264 test is only part of the story. We must also study the performance of disk i/o when exporting large files.

  My disappointing score on the H.264 test is caused by the lack of carrots, the memory and the cache limited on the 920. OTOH, price/performance wise I know that I prefer my setup the Juggenaugt.

• How do you turn with the virtualization of hardware assisted for a T510 Intel I5

  I'll put up a T510 with Windows 2008R2 as a mobile demonstration platform and I want to run Hyper-V on it. Hyper V requires hardware virtualization and reading through the form of i5 that looks like it is taken in charge. Is - this automatically active (I see that Hyper threading is turned on by looking at the Task Manager) if not how can I activate this.

  Thank you

  Search BIOS Intel VT and Intel VT - d. You must enable at least VT VT - d is not required (it has to help IO virtualization).

• Check several choices and limit box

  Hello

  I created a quiz on as3. This is the code I used for radioboxes:

  var quizscore = 0;  score. "" Text = quizscore + "";

  var group1:RadioButtonGroup = new RadioButtonGroup ("question1");

  A1. Group = a2.group = a3.group = a4.group is group1;.

  submit_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, myquiz)

  myquiz function (event: MouseEvent): void {}

  If (group1.selection.label == "Correct answer") {quizscore += 10;}  nextFrame(); }

  else {nextFrame() ;}

  }

  A multiple choice question so I want to use the checkboxes. can I use the same type of method for checkboxes?

  That is to say. If the value of the selected box is 'this' and then add 10 points. This question has two answers; have I can limit how many checkboxes are checked before they reach submit it?

  can anyone help?

  Thanks much :))

  Since you use frames as the mechanism to change the quiz, the scripts on each image can mutate a little to treat each question easily.

  In each script of frames, you can decide what values are correct for this image and use the existing logic you use to determine if something is correct. Using the property selected box will tell you that are selected in order to compare that to the right answer, for example:

  If ((checkbox1.selected && checkbox2.selected && checkbox999.selected))

  {

  OK, what you want

  } else {}

  incorrect, do something else

  }

  There is on the other side as well, you usually want to check that some boxes are not checked (wrong answers), then just add! in front, for example: if (checkbox1.selected &! checkbox2.selected) {/ / 1 is selected, 2 is not}... If you have a few questions with 20 possible responses the strategy is not elegant then mention if you do.

  Limiting the number of checkboxes that can be archived is possible in a variety of ways. The simplest is telling the user how much can be verified, which allows them to check that a lot as they want and the submission of the response, check the number of responses is within your limits. It is not the best way, but it is easier. Literally just loop through boxes and County. If you name the answer with a number boxes (checkbox1, checkbox2,... checkbox99) you can even browse them in this way, for example:

  define a range of 1-3 answers

  function checkAnswers(e:MouseEvent):void

  {

  response range

  var minAnswers:int = 1;

  var maxAnswers:int = 3;

  detected number as selected

  var selectedAnswers = 0;

  total number of checkboxes for that matter (checkbox1, checbox2,... checkbox20)

  var totalCheckboxes:int = 5;

  for (var checkboxNumber:int = 1; checkboxNumber<= totalcheckboxes;="">

  {

  If (this ["checkbox" + checkboxNumber] .selected is true)

  {

  increment the selected answers

  selectedAnswers ++;

  }

  }

  a simple check because if it is in the range

  If (selectedAnswers > = minAnswers & selectedAnswers)<=>

  {

  number is located, continue

  }

  on the other

  {

  out of reach, warn the user on the number of responses

  }

  }

  When they click on which key you have you can have the Manager to do what he does and also to trigger this function...

  myButton.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, checkAnswers);

  There are ways much cleaner to do, but because the question is basic I give you just a simple way to manage the solution. If you are a lot more in the script and the reusability I can suggest other ways, but as they are less painful, they are more complicated.

• Cannot connect ESX to HP MSA 1000 box

  I have 2 ESX servers. These two servers are connected to a HP MSA 1000 (that's our mini san)

  On the connection to one of the vi console box, I see the server and 3 comments below.

  On the creating a new virtual machine, I can connect to a data store. There is no connectivity between this box and the table.

  On the connection to the 2nd ESX Server via the VI Client, all guests show as unavailable.

  I can't restart or do something with these clients.

  In addition, trying to add a new virtual machine, I see nothing in the screen of data store. (then becomes invalid)

  Is this a problem with conectivity between the ESX Server (in which comments are unavailable) and the HP table?

  Can what commands I use to tets connectivity to an ESX Server data store and check if data warehouses are available?

  Hello

  So, I assumed that the aircraft was down and had to be reset. The guys at HP have not upgraded the firmware of the device as they wanted to ensure that there are no compatibility issues with the firmware of the MSA 1000 box cards HBA and firmware.

  Interesting, that I never got to restart my unit to get connectivity. I would upgrade to firmware active/active.

  A strange thing is that this MSA 1000 has 2 controllers, but one of the controller was never connected to the box. Not bad, it is inserted into the MSA1000. It seems therefore, that there is no (active-passive, active) configuration of the array of redundancy. It's something I want to do moving forward.

  Just insert it. Make sure however that the main port HBAS on each host is connected to the primary controller within the MSA. If they are not get you flip flop unless you use Active/Active firmware.

  At this point you can connect via the Web, VI and the ILO in two boxes of ESX Server and Yes we had also a connected Windows box (it was never passed on to me), so now in the windows box, I started the utility of matrices of Compaq and I can see the raid configurations.

  This is how to configure the MSA. You can do not to ESX or the ILO, only a box separated from Windows with qlogic HBA or cable series. That in general, I have connected to my ESX host so I could control things without needing a separate windows box.

  Oh boy! IF anyone of you can guide me to a good guide for the configuration and connections between MSA1000 SAN and ESX hosts, it would be wonderful.

  HP should have one.

  Another question: I noticed that the version of ESX is 3.0 and VI client is 2.0. Also when I connect through the VI client, I see that the tab of the inventory and the administration, I don't see the options such as cluster options and also activate the plug-ins for VMotion and VMupdate Manager. When I connect through the VI client, I login as root.

  Should I be upgrading the infrastructure of the ESX 3.5 and the VI Client to 2.5 to activate all options?

  These options are available in 3.0 and 3.5. Not really sure what you're asking here. But I think it's a separate issue and should have its own thread.

• Select All (choices) in EDIT BOX (guests)

  Hello
  
  I use for the guest of the year editing area, if want to, select for all ages at the same time, how can I accomplish this task in the editing area.
  
  Ex:-if I enter 'ALL' in the outlet box I must me able to data c for all years.
  
  Please help me with this...
  
  
  Thank you.

  Hello.

  This can be achieved with the concept of smart filters.

  1. fast on the same column with editbox control and assign them variable presentation we will tell: var_all

  2. go to your report and apply the filter on the same column and say that "is"get ".

  3 yet once click on the same column filters option, but this time, assign a submission to that variable.

  4. click on change the formula column... option of 3rd stage filter, remove existing features and say 'ALL' (to ensure that this is the channel you want to enter the editing for all the choices area), click OK

  5. change the AND operator to the OR operator, as shown below in the link http://i852.photobucket.com/albums/ab83/kishorg86/EditBoxAlllChocies.jpg

  Enter ALL in the editing area of the command prompt in the dashboard, you'll see all the values in this column in the report.

  Hope you got this concept...

• Choice of adapter LAN: Intel or Thinkpad?

  I am setting up a Thinkpad E520 system on the Lenovo online store and I have to choose between

  -Intel WiFi Link 1000

  -Thinkpad 1 x 1 b/g/n

  ThinkPad is selected by default. Is there a reason to choose the Intel LAN adapter instead?

  Thanks again Dave. Better support and documentation like a plus for Intel. Also other sellers of laptop computers generally use WiFi Intel cards...

  You seem as intrigued by questions of language pack as I am by the packs themselves. Thanks for looking into this.
