ESXi 4.1 - blades HP and NFS mounts

Similar Questions

• NFS mounts persist?

  Hi all

  I've updated to Win 7 Enterprise for NFS support.

  I was able to map two NFS shares successfully.

  However, upon restart, the actions are lost. Is it possible (I don't see one in the snap-snap-in mmc NFS) to indicate that they be reconnected at logon. I could use a login script in local GPO to do this, but I was wondering if there was a "better way" (tm).

  A tip for those who struggle with the NFS client: use showmount to see if Windows can even see the actions. I had to set the firewall issues, then showmount showed stocks and I was able to login and navigate through the:

  Server EI C:\Users\owner>showmount
  Export the server list:
  /nfs4exports 192.168.x.0/24
  RAID 192.168.x.0/24/nfs4exports.
  mythstorage 192.168.x.0/24/nfs4exports.

  C:\Users\owner>mount server: / nfs4exports/z: raid
  z: is now connected to the server: / nfs4exports/raid

  The command completed successfully.

  C:\Users\owner >

  Found the answer on the technet site (it's sort of, a persistent systemic mount is not possible, but using a user login script is possible.)

  Basically NFS connections are stored on a basis by user.

  "NFS mounted drive letters are specific session so running this in a script to start most likely will not work." The service would probably need to mount its own drive letters from a script that runs in the context of service. We have specific guidelines, that it is not recommended to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/180362. "

  .Snapshot in the error message file is a NFS function because it mounts are actually NFS volumes.

  
  

  Are the T2P scripts supported on NFS mounts? If so, how to solve this problem? Would appreciate your comments on how we can solve this problem

  The issue was due to wrong settings for the frames. This has been fixed by the storage team. T2P scripts were always initially and after that correction of the Storage mounts, they ran successfully. A restoration was necessary, and RCU patterns had to be recreated on the clone

• Is Microsoft Failover Cluster ESXi 4.1 Shared Disk of NFS data store, it supported?

  Is Microsoft Failover Cluster ESXi 4.1 Shared Disk of NFS data store, it supported?

  We have a request from MS Failover Cluster configuration on Windows 2008 R2 2 guests with a storage shared for a web application. However, there is no VMFS storage of data or the ability of the CF to presending RDM. So, I created the disks shared on a NFS datastore using option "Setup for Failover Clustering and Microsoft Cluster Service" and have added the cluster disk and tested successful failover.

  But the MS cluster validation control cancelled storage and I want to know if that configuration is not taken because of supported.

  A notice would be useful.

  We are also working on setting up a cluster of ESXi for iSCSI storage, which can be leveraed for this purpose.

  Shyam-

  Its not supported.

  4.1, your only options supported are:

  • CF storage with pRDMs
  • iSCSI storage with initiators guest.

• Questions of NFS mount points

  I have two questions about how the NFS mount points is in fact from the point of view NFS servers.

  If the mount point of the 'outside' is considered as for example / ISO, would this mean

  1. that the directory is named "iso" or could it be a real name on the local file system on the NAS Server? (As in the names of SMB share, could be different from the name of folder.)

  2. that the folder is actually located directly on the root of the local file system, which is/ISO on the server, or would it be for example/dir1/dir2/iso and always to the outside as appearance / ISO? (As in the SMB, where 'share' creates a new root somewhere on the filesystem that is exposed to the outside.)

  Thank you! It would be a typical NFS-Unix/Linux server?

  Yes.

  So perhaps it is not defined in the standard how this should be done, but can vary between implementations? (* nix of course most common.)

  Possible, but does MS ever meet standards? Even their own?

  RFC1094/NFS:

  "Different operating systems may have restrictions on the depth of the tree or used names, but also using a syntax different tor represent the"path", which is the concatenation of all the"components"(file and directory names) in the name...". Some operating systems provide a 'mount' operation to make all file systems appear as a single tree, while others maintain a 'forest' of file systems... NFS looking for a component of a path at the same time.  It may not be obvious why he did not only take the name of way together, stroll in the directories and return a file handle when it is carried out.  There are many good reasons not to do so.  First, paths need separators between items in the directory, and different operating systems use different separators.  We could define a representation of network Standard access path, but then each path must be analyzed and converted at each end.

• maximum size of the NFS mounts

  Hello

  I would like to know what is the maximum size for mounting NFS into ESX (i) 4? If I need more than 2 TB, I need to use extensions iSCSI volumes. Is it the same thing with NFS or I can come up and use for example a 4 TB NFS share?

  Thank you

  Marcus

  NFS mounts have No. limit.  It is also great that you need to make.  ESX can mount NFS, that's all.  The ONLY limitation for ESX is VMFS, because ESX creates / manages VMFS volumes.  NFS mounts are managed by OTHER systems, they have their own limits.

  NFS is just a huge disk hard as far as ESX is concerned.

• How to start vmware after NFS mounts

  OK, so now I have solved the mystery of editing.  I'm looking for the gurus of linux on how to change the sequence of boot for mounts NFS are made prior to the VMware service.

  I use Centos 5.3 on the host.

  Phil

  Hello

  You must configure vmware to start after nfs and network.

  A simple example makes it easier to understand:

  LS /etc/rc3.d/S*network

  /etc/rc3.d/S10network

  LS /etc/rc3.d/S*nfs

  /etc/rc3.d/S11nfs

  LS /etc/rc3.d/S*vmware

  /etc/rc3.d/S05vmware

  In this case, it may be like this:

  RM /etc/rc3.d/S05vmware

  ln-s /etc/init.d/vmware /etc/rc3.d/S20vmware

  Today, vmware always will begin after the nfs mounts.

  A saludo/best regards,.

• NFS mount options

  I just bought a Qnap NAS box that I want to share with 2 VM hosts.   I did a little research on NFS vs iSCSI and it seems that NFS has some pretty good advantage over iSCSI.  Especially when she is on a network to shared resources.

  The hosts are the two Centos 5.3.

  I wonder what would be the optimum settings (options) for the NFS mount?  I found a couple of some old site, but I wonder what people here use?  Here's a setting string that I found:

  nfsvers = 3, tcp, timeo = 600, TRANS = 2, rsize = 32768, wsize = 32768, hard, intr, noatime

  I'm heading to the coast to look at the man page for NFS now to see what these all mean...

  Thank you

  Phil

  Here's a good explanation of this thing:

  The nolock option prevents the sharing of file locking

  information between the NFS server and the NFS client. The server is

  unaware of the file locks on this client and vice versa.

  Using

  the nolock option is required if the NFS server has its NFS file lock

  the feature in a State broken or remained dead letter, but she works between

  all versions of NFS.

  If another host is accessing the same files that

  your app on this host, there may be problems if file locking

  information sharing is disabled.

  Failure to maintain good

  blocking a write operation to the same host with a read operation on

  another may cause the reader to have incomplete or inconsistent data

  (reads a structure of data/record/line that is written only in part).

  A

  locking failure between two writers is likely to have data

  loss/corruption, such as the later writing replaces the previous one. The

  changes made by the previous write operation may be lost.

• ESXi connection to the Windows SFU NFS data store

  We plan to install 3 servers ESXi with virtual machines hosted on local.  A backup script align the images and move the *.vmx and *.vmdk to a NFS data store located in separate facilities which are connected via fiber.  All connections are links of 1 G.  The NFS data store will be hosted on w2k3 with SFU (Microsoft Services for Unix).

  The NFS data store will be a target for cloning and will be located in a building separated for "geographical separation."  I tested with Veema FastSCP (the public beta)... it's ok (30Mbytes/sec).  I assume that the clone process will take about 5 hours - but we can tolerate the performance hit after opening hours.

  Question:  Is there a "traps" to know by linking each ESXi server in the same directory NFS exported using SFU?  Perhaps more to the point... no problem with ESXi and Windows SFU?

  Before anyone asks... we do this on a 'super-thin budget' (that is to say... $ 0) using existing hardware, otherwise I would have ESX Enterprise and SAN storage!

  Some discussions to look at on the performance.

• Partition in gray and cannot mount/erase, help!

  So I used to have bootcamp on my macbook pro, until there was some kind of issue that made me delete, or so I thought.

  So today after clearing my computer out of the way of bootcamp, I started bootcamp and was greeted by a message saying

  "The startup disk must be formatted in a single volume in Mac OS extended (journaled) or already partitioned by Boot Camp Assistant to install Windows."

  So logically I open disk utility and surely, there were three partitions; 12x12cm HD, recovery and the other named Untitled. The partition named untitled had 99GB of storage all be exhausted and has been grey, I tried to clear it, and then mount it, but nothing seemed to work. (Erasing gave an error message) I tried paritioning the SSD, but it said something like "Enable logging" (which I've tried to do, but were grayed out for me)

  Please help, I have no idea what's going on and I really want to get bootcamp running!

  Fixed!

  I decided to go ahead and try to start windows, and surely, it has not been entirely removed. I installed the drivers installation, selected the 98 GB partition and deleted. Then, I left out of the facility, in OS X and wollah, back to a single disk again!

• Servers blades Cisco and BS chassis house?

  Or they re-brand? They are manufactured by HP, IBM, Cisco, etc. ? Basic question, but I wonder if they have renamed them as they do the serial MCS Unified Communications servers.

  Thank you!

  Cisco series B blade servers and the C-Series rack servers are designed by Cisco. There is no product so 3rd party without re-branding. In fact, there are a number of patents and standards that have been put forward with the implementation of Cisco servers.

  Hi team,

  OK, so the ESXi nodes were hard started (as if you pushed the power button).

  This is probably why the task for a planned restart does not turn upward.

  Do you see the ESXi nodes with the following script?

  It shows the events where the connection to a host has been lost.

  $start = (get-Date). AddDays(-7)

• behavior of the api VMware SAN and NFS

  While working on the vmware api Reconfigure_task fact face a problem. A single montage, in the same scenario, he started the exception as

  incompatiable backup device 1 in the case of NFS, but in the case of SAN, it is throwing exception as a Configuration not valid for the '1' device.

  My question here is that if vmware SDK behaves differently in the case of SAN and NFS for the same api?

  Is there any document coming from where we can get more information on the different behavior and how to approach us differently through the c# application?

  Basically, the answer is no. VimSdk acts not differently for NFS for SAN.

  Of course, ReconfigureVM_Task can have constraints special som according to the storage used.
