• To access ESXi 4 Update 1 custom server from dell MD3000i iSCSI SAN

  Hello

  I'm brand new on VMware ESX/ESXi products and for the most part, no.  I configured several machines virtual with server 1 and 2.  I am trying to connect a virtual ESXi 4 server in a SAN and starts to become very confused about what I can or not do.  I hope that someone here can break it down for me because I couldn't find the answer to my specific questions.

  Here's how I'm Setup:

  I have a Dell PowerEdge R710 with ESXi 4 Update 1 'Custom Dell' (whatever that means) is installed.

  I have a Dell MD3000i SAN using iSCSI with a pre-configured dedicated virtual disk.

  I would like to create virtual machines on virtual disk said.

  I think that ESXi 4 is completely free.

  It seems that to manage the server, I need to use 1 of the 2 products.  The Vsphere client or web application of VMware Go.

  If I use Vsphere:

  I have the ability to add a type of storage through the user interface.

  I'm on a 60-day trial. I thought that it was free.

  If I configure my iSCSI via Vsphere and then the eval expires... what happens?  All jump on me and then I have to purchase a license to get it back?

  If I use VMware go:

  It seems I don't really have any options to do any kind of configuration iSCSI in VMware Go.  I do?

  I also have a XenServer that is configured in this way and it's all free. I wanted to try the bare metal of VMware solution, but now I wonder if I'll have to go back to Xen.

  Can someone please relieve me of my confusion until I have to pull the plug on this experience.  Maybe direct me to the proper documentation on how to configure what I need with what I have at the cost free-is possible.

  Thanks a lot for your comments and have a wonderful weekend!

  I'd go by QuickStart Webcast and Webcast ESXi Webstart to help get a better understanding.

  Here is a configuration to the MD3000i http://www.dell.com/downloads/global/solutions/esx_storage_deployment_guide_v1.pdf guide

• Update Server ESXi 4 Update 1 in a HA cluster with Update Manager

  I have currently a node two, HA on VSphere 4 cluster each host running ESXi 4. I want to update ESXi 4 Update 1 by using Update Manager. My question is, I'd do one host at a time to ensure that the guests stay up? The update to ESXi 4 update 1 requires even the hosts restart? I still have an option to update only one host at a time?

  I just want to know if there is a way to update the two nodes in the cluster without interruption of the comments.

  Thank you.

  You can do the remidiation at the level of the cluster by using Update Manager

  in your case, Manager Update wll start theremidation the first host and repeat the failure of the virtual machine on a second host (hope you have activated the DRS for the VMotion). Once the restoration is complete and host will start, it will do VMotion to improved host and continue sanitation on the second host.

  Update Manager also supports remidiating each host in the cluster.

• Can I put ESXi 4 Update 1 with a bootable disk? (and do not use the host updated util)

  Hello

  Is it possible to update ESXi through a bootable media or do I need to use the Update Manager? I was wondering if I can just download the ESXi 4 Update 1 ISO and start him on my ESXi server and update from there. Will that blow my current config?

  Thank you.

  cd update is not an option with vSphere ESX or ESXi.  You can boot from it and tell it to install, but it will give you a clean installation of ESX and, perhaps, leave your single datastore.  I don't recommend it, tho.

• Warehouses of unstable data using PERC 5 / i integrated controllers ESXi 4 Update 1

  Hello

  Already had an ESXi 3.5 installation works well and booting from a USB flash drive. My system uses two Dell PERC 5i integrated adapters. Shut down the system and it has restarted on another device USB with ESXi 4 Update 1 (currently without a license). I looked in the HCL and PERC controllers appear to be there. The new version seems to start only are fine but no data in the client stores.  So I started experimenting and created a store of data on vmhba1 controller. In the "Adding storage" Wizard, I did this: chose disk/LUN - & gt; Highlight vmhba1 - & gt; the next screen says disc is empty if it was not when used under ESXi3.5 - & gt; Enter the name 'slow-drive' - & gt; has chosen the smaller block size setting "256 GB, block size: 1 MB '-& gt; Click Finish. The system seems to create the data store. But when I start to browse the data store and copy a file to it, she starts and seems to copy then produced an IO error. If I reboot, the storage diappears.

  I've seen references to the use of some utils esxcfg-volume and fdisk-l to persistent editing shells. But this I/O question seems strange.

  Are the Perc 5 / integrated i indeed took in charge the controllers?

  Do I have to use a certain version of BIOS for controllers (I have them update code recent BIOS that worked with ESXi 3.5)?

  All ideas are welcome.

  Thank you

  Battery backed cache write - a DIMM ECC Registered (up to 512 MB) on the controller and a rechargeable lithium ion battery pack connected to it.

  Please give points for any helpful answer.

  Hi David,

  You must download Photoshop CS6 and enter the serial number for Photoshop CS6 and then you will be prompted to enter the serial number of product qualification.

  Enter the serial number CS5 to install and activate Photoshop CS5 on your machine.

• Error after upgrade to ESXi 5 Update 1 on free version

  At all a ghettoVCBg2 got another run properly after the upgrade to ESXi 5u1 via vMA 5 when it's the free version?

  I have a couple of free machine and they are the only ones having problems. My verson licensed production work very well.

  The error I get on free machines is as follows:

  Failed to get vim_service - the session object is not initialized or not connected to the line /usr/lib/perl5/5.10.0/VMware/VICommon.pm 1654
  Perl came out with active threads:
  1 running and spare
  0 finished and spare
  0 running and detached

  I find autour and trying different solutions to simular errors (for example, by adding the debugging of CARP), but nothing works.

  None of the 1 post update fixes fixed either.

  ghettoVCB works very well on the free servers however.

  So, I'm curious if anyone has seen this problem?

  I guess that the reason is that ghettoVCB2 was built for the paid editions that allow write API access.

  There was some editions which do not restrict this access, as you can see in "Support of ESX/ESXi Version table" at http://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-9843. The initial version of ESXi 5.0 is / was one of them, considering that the update 1 is even more restrictive.

• ESXi 4 upgrade by using 2 update

  Hi, we would like to update our esxi servers 4 with update 2, we have not installed update 1.

  We will have a very difficult time to know what is exactly the process. We downloaded "Update server ESXi 4.0 for ESXi 4.0 Update 2.zip Server package" I tried to use Host Update Utility, but it does not work.

  We were able to successfully apply the update 2 to VCentre.

  We have 5 guests and they run VMware ESXi, 4.0.0 164009 and VMware ESXi, version 4.0.0 181792.

  If anyone has a simple walkthru, it would be most appreciated.

  Thank you!

  Since you're using vCenter using ESXi update Update Manager

• ESXi 3.5 to ESXi 4 update

  Hi all

  I have a production server with a standalone version of ESXi 3.5 Update2.

  There are a couple (about 10) VMs running on it and stored on local storage.

  What is the best procedure to upgrade this ESXi 4 Server?

  If I reinstall it from scratch, what virtual machines on the local data store?

  Thank you

  Good bye
