ESX host will not use VMotion

Hi all

I have a question maybe someone can help.

I installed two new ESX hosts in their own cluster, managed by a single data center environment.

After the installation and updates, adding them to the Cluster environment and adding new licenses to the license server VC.

I have one of the two ESX host who won't use VMotion. Everything is allowed as should be. But in the section of the Add On to the Configuration of the license, I see the following:

VMware DRS Licensed for 2 cpu

VirtualCenter for ESX Server Licensed agent for 2 cpu

VMotion will not used

VMware Consolidated Backup for 2 cpu license

VMware HA under license for 2 cpu

Additional details:

Both servers in the cluster are identical hardware profiles: Intel 3.2Gig Xeon, 2 cavities 4 hearts, no HT.

32Gig of RAM, (Proliant DL380 G5)

The two servers connected to the SAN via Fibre Chanel Switch, redundant.

Concert NIC ((VMNic 0 (Console 1), VMNic 1 (Standby adapter), VMNic 2 (Console 2) (the Virtual Machine Network), (VMkernel), (ports of vSwitch 56 none VLAN not defined) VMNic 3 (Standby adapter)).)

No errors in the Logs of license, the Console message, etc. Everything seems in good health with no update needed.

Both servers see the unique data store, created on the same SAN which it connects through the switch channel.

VMFS 3.31.  Unique data store with several extensions (8 in total, the creation of a size of 15 to storage).

Any ideas?

All my other hosts using VMotion, but it does not work and there is no difference in configuration, I know.

Thank you

Some of the most common problems that cause problems VMotion - have you enabled for VMotion vmkernel port? VMkernel ports on the same segments of entwork?

Can you provide the ip addresses for your vmkernel enabled for vmotion -

  • ESX host is not responding

    Hello

    now, I have a problem.

    a customer has 3 blade IBM HS23.

    because in the course of the last 7 months I had 4 times the host esx became offline / insensitive

    all the vm continue to operate therefore continues to operate production

    ESX host do not react on SSH connection or telnet

    I can connect after pressing F2 and F12, but then the host everything crashes

    I can't connect to the vi to the ESX host client either.

    all hosts are installed on the IBM's USB drive

    the only thing to solve it is to off the blades and start again

    also random sound. I had 3 months running good, good running 1 day and 3 weeks running good

    the vpxd.log file displays only the waiting times to communicate with the esx host and then the error offline

    already updated all my firmware (chasis, blades, storage, fiber brocade and IBM switches)

    I started with vsphere 5.5 u1 U1 and ESXI 5.5 IBM. already updates on vsphere 5.5 U2 and 5.5 ESXi vmware u2 (since ibm doesn't have an ESXi custom 5.5 u2)

    im stuck... lil last event is on 16/01/2015 (and ibm will not support since there only subscription for 3 years and no software support contract)

    one last point, I'm under bacup veeam and 7.x replication but don't see a problem there.

    Thanks in advance.

    I found the problem

    I've restarted only iSCSI data store and all ESXi hosts becomes sensitive

    so, after searching for the qnap forum I noticed that they have released an update on 29/01/2015

    test of the firmware now and see what happens

    If this fails, I guess the qnap ts - 469L is not taken in charge more for vsphere 5.5

    Thank you all for the suggestions

  • T520 will not use any device DVD

    People,

    I was going to do a backup, when I noticed that the DVD player was no longer under my computer.

    I when in Device Manager, where he showed with a yellow X... I tried to update the device driver, it said that I had the right device. I've done many other things - nothing has worked.

    I really wanted to get the backup made, so I took my portable DVD player/burner and plugged. The laptop computer found a loaded device OK... but it does not appear in my computer. I had the same problem as the DVD drive internal.

    Then I got a USB drive external Passport, connected to the same USB port, no problems... He mounted the disk and I made the backup.

    My T520 will not use any device DVD... ideas?

    Hi alperb33255764,

    You can use what you want, there is no such limitation. However when you go to cloud service based like loading or sync files to your cloud storage, you need an active Internet connection.

  • HA when ESX host are not equal to each other

    Hello

    Please, describe me my misunderstanding of HA...

    I have 3 servers ESX and 2 of them have 4 CPU 1 only have 2 CPU. I can create cluster HA with these 3 hosts, and if I can - how VM is migrated to ESX with 2 CPU, when one or two ESX with 4 CPUS will fail, in case when I have VMS with 4 CPUS per VM (even though admission control will be disable)?

    A vm with v 4cpus will not be able to be propelled to a host with only 2 physical processors. HA will not be able to failover in this case, even if the HA admission control is disabled.

  • OfficeJet 6500 has more: printer will not use BLACK ink to print in BLACK. Mix of colors rather than use BLACK.

    Printer prints BLACK ink BLACK, instead he mixes the colours to make BLACK.  It creates copies in BLACK only, without mixing colors to achieve the BLACK, but when I ask it to print something it automatically uses the ink color.

    In properties, advanced, I checked the box to print in BLACK only, but did not help.

    In the printing preferences, shortcuts, where it says printing in grayscale, do you feel black ink only as a default?

    I don't know if it will work, I do not use this parameter or the Advanced setting, I have been using high-quality grayscale, but I'm interested to know why, also, when I print 99.9% of the time with color, what I need to change the color ink cartridges so frequently.  You say the color of those who are used to make black.  That makes no sense to me either why the printer would do that, except high-quality grayscale means he uses color inks vs only Black Ink is not.

    Test printed with two parameters, and that is exactly the same, so I won't set my default preferences for levels of gray-black ink only printing and see what happens.

    What how can you tell whether or not the printer is mix colors?  (by the way, if you use unusually fast color ink)

    gillweb,
    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft Answers forum.  Well, since the problem started with the Norton update then you can check with the help of Norton to see if they have seen this problem before.  You can try to perform a System Restore.  If that is not correct the problem then it can come down to remove Norton and then put it back.

  • Windows Live Photo will not use HP F380 for scanning

    I have a HP F380 all-in-One on an Acer Aspire running Windows 7 32 bit. I tried to get a scan if Windows Live Photo Gallery, but it allows me to choose which device (appears as Hp Deskjet F300), when I hit 'Import', the window of the unit closes and does nothing.  I have no error code. (Runs fine)

    I have edited/reinstalled/restart the driver, run the printer if troubleshooting and when I hit the scan button on the printer it scans (will not let me change it), but live didn't do nothing despite knowing a scanner is attached. I tried to use the paint and Windows Fax and Scan, but when he tries to connect, it lags behind on and I have to use the Task Manager to close the programs.

  • Can I remove Logical columns that I will not use in the layer of presentation as the id or foreign key columns?

    Hello

    Can I remove Logical columns at the level of the business layer that I'm not going to use the layer of presentation as the ID or foreign key columns? It will not affect the relations to the business layer?

    Kind regards

    Nestor

    Hi Nestor,.

    It won't unless they are used as keys, columns sort order, the ID column or the likes. But you can leave them in the MDB layer and expose just in the presentation layer - just in case you need it later. It is not use all the resources or generate overhead.

  • 5.5u2 ESXi host will not mount CF data warehouses

    I am the admin in a test lab, so many times I have to "make do" with what I have for the material.  I recently reassigned a R910 Dell with 64 GB memory in a 5.5u2 ESXi host.  It has some storage SAS (2.5 to) and some (CT 11) directly connected FC storage and some FC HBAs for use by VMs to send data to the tape library.

    Recently, we had a power failure, and this host does not reconnect to the CF storage when she returned to the top.  (Duty to "make do" with what I means not having is not the capabilities of UPS).  I can tell the host of HBA see it properly and sees the LUNS on RAID controllers, but refuses to mount.  I go through the add storage Wizard, and he sees that there is a store of data storage VMFS, but always refuses to mount.  I also tried to remove the redirection to the two FC HBA that have been set up for this purpose, but it made no difference.

    I have now three users unable to work because they cannot access their virtual machines on storage of this FC.  I can't even transfer them off to use the SAS storage form.

    I think it might be the cause file system damage, but I'm not sure.  Someone at - it suggestions?

    Have you ever tried to set up data warehouses from the command line (see, for example, http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1011387)?
