• Update Server VC and 5.5 ESXi hosts to update 3 b (Build 3248547)

  I'm in vCenter Server 5.5 and 5.5 ESXi hosts.  Both are updated 3A, patched to version 201510001, which is the build 3116895.  I plan the upgrade of update 3 b (Build 3248547) and I'm a little confused on the question of SSLv3.

  I wonder if this point below ESXi55 U3b & VC 55U3b Known Issues applies to my config:

  ESXi does not automatically added to the inventory of the vCenter servers
  If you install an earlier version of vCenter Server and vSphere Update Manager for ESXi 5.5 updated 3B, then after the task of sanitation, ESXi does not automatically added to the VC inventory. Remediation process never gets done and ESXi State of connection in the VC inventory is presented as disconnected. Solution: When you restart ESXi after reorganization process is started, enable SSLv3 on ESXi (which is disabled by default). This will ensure that ESXi is added to the VC inventory automatically in minutes and sanitation as completed.

  If I'm reading things correctly, upgrade to vCenter Server to 3 b first and then upgrade the ESXi hosts, will avoid lost communication problems.  Can anyone confirm?

  It should be good if you update vCenter first.

  The problem is that pre - U3b vCenter 5.5 forces an SSLv3 connection when connecting to an ESXi host on port 443 (not the reverse). It does this, even if the host ESXi and vCenter SSL/TLS libraries actually support TLS 1.0 + since at least vSphere 4.0.

  So when you update one host to 5.5 U3b, the oldest vCenter again will try to force a connection SSLv3 that will fail, since SSLv3 has been disabled to the host. If you're updating vCenter, first of all, it will initiate a good TLS 1.0 + connection to more similar and updated hosts.

  Here is an explanation of the (pre - U3b) vCenter SSLv3 handshake behavior:

• Upgrade of the 3 HP VMware ESXi 5.1 update kills Emulex network and cannot be cancelled?

  People,

  I have a serious issue here after the upgrade of the HP Blade 465 BL c G7 with adapter Emulex NC551i double Port FlexFabric 10 Gb..

  The problem: after the successful online update of ESXi 5.1 Update 2 Patch 5 (2000251) in ESXi 5.1 update 3 (2323236) the ESXi server cannot be crazy, or it can ping to the outside network, so she doesn't have to reconnect to the VCenter server.

  Software/Firmware version:

  The version before the upgrade of the server are:

  ~ # ethtool-i vmnic0

  pilot: be2net

  version: 10.2.293.0

  firmware version: 4.9.416.2

  bus-info: 0000:04:00.0

  ~ #

  Since the version above does not work, I managed to download VMW-ESX-5.1.0-be2net-10.2.477.20-offline_bundle-2541837.zip for upgrade the driver VMNic in: 10.2.477.20 but still after the update and restart the network is not able-ping.

  ROLLBACK:

  I also tried to restore to previous work ESXi Server version 2000251 to the help of SHIFT-R but the ESXi server still restart as 2323236 with a network that still worked.

  
  

  Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated without having to reconfigure the settings of ESXi and the configuration of the switch distributed from scratch.

• ESXi 4.1 update 1 and Raid 3ware 9550SX card

  As the title says, I'm trying to get a raid 3ware 9550sx card work with ESXi 4.1 update 1.  I tried to load the drivers from the card via the CLI and in the end, received a message "host not was not updated, no change not required.  Newsletter from skip AMCC_2.26.08.035vm40; It is installed or obseleted. »

  However, when I try to find the raid controller of adapters for storage, the VIClient Configuration tab, I don't see it.  I do something wrong, is the driver included in this version of ESXi (I'm on a new installation started from a USB key) or is there another step after installing the driver I am skipping until I can see the map and use drives connected to it?

  Thanks for any help,

• ESXI 4.0 Update 1 and 2

  I have a two nodes in the cluster running ESXI 4.0. I have the cluster managed by Vcenter 4.1 running Update Manager. I try to use Manager Update to patch my nodes to update 1 and 2.  Whenever I try to import the ISO it fails. I am told that this update manager cannot verify checksums. It is possible to update ESXI 4.0 Update 1 and 2 using the Update Manager?

  You should not download the media in MUV.  Just create a patch for U2 host base and attach it to your host.  U2 is out on 10/06/2010. If you can take a walk or after that date.  There are also patches of U2 released 09/30/10

• How to install esxi 4.0 Update 1 on Dell PE 710 R

  How to install esxi 4.0 Update 1 on Dell PE 710 R? on esxi, we want to create virtual machines for windows 2008 r2.

  We can use Dell Open manage and it gives options to use esxi 4.0 or we need to start directly from esxi 4.0 Update 1 CD and run the installer.

  Please suggest the best way to configure esxi 4.0 on dell 710R server.

  If you are on the Dell hardware, you need at least generation 9 material, for example, a Dell PE 1850 or 2850 will not support a Windows 2008 R2 64-bit o/s. If you're on a material later, where the processor supports the technology of Intel Virtualization (VT), you can enable it in the BIOS of the host.

  Please note that R2 support is "experimental" - you will need to ESXi 4.0 Update 1 installed full support.

• Personalized Cisco ESXi 5.5 Update 2 Image

  When can we expect to see the new custom image ESXi 5.5 Update 2? I just checked VMWare site and I see 1 update but not update 2.  Is there a method of supported / recommended update servers UCS to ESXi 5.5 Update 2 in the meantime?

  Thank you

  (1) use this utility to understand what enic / fnic is necessary. EG.for U2 5.5 ESXi

  Driver = 1.6.0.12 (FNIC) / 2.1.2.59 (ENIC)
  Adapter = 2.2 Firmware (3)

  http://www.Cisco.com/Web/TechDoc/UCS/interoperability/matrix/matrix.html

  (2) install ESXi 5.5 U2, iso regular (Non OEM version) of the VMware Web site

  (3) get the fnic above / enic pilot since an ISO image of the UCS-based drivers 
  UCS-bxxx - drivers. 2.1.3d.iso

• using vmware update manager to update Dell M630 ESXI 5.5 update 3

  I use put vmware update manager (VUM) up-to-date Dell M630 ESXI 5.5 updated 3. The Dell build was published on 11/13/15.

  The results of the baseline VUM are attached. I was surprised that some older patches from 2014 are suggested, and even complete full update and 2 update 3. Is a common practice to just update with whataver MUV said, or is it best to get VUM to apply the patches after the date of release of a version of the seller?

  If missing the update you must certainly apply. I'm just going by what suggests Manager Update and apply all the patches.

• USB or HDD space for new server ESXi 5.5 updated 3 current enforcement?

  Hello

  We get a new DELL server to run ESXi 5.5 update 3.

  Just find out there is an embedded version of ESXi 5.5 update 3 on a USB is connected.

  We would like to know what meaning it is best to run ESXi - USB or Local HARD disk?  I think that if she runs on the Local HARD disk, we can remote access via DRAC card.   In addition, we do not use any local HD (i.e. no VSAN) and so there is no loss if VMware runs on the HD.

  Your opinion is requested.

  
  Thank you

  Hello.

  With ESXi on USB/SD is supported by VMware, so no problem here. Remember that if you use these devices, you'd probably set the partition scratching at some storage 'persistent '. I personally use one of the data stores for all guests, I have it in one place.

  I don't understand why you assuming that through a port USB as a boot device will not provide access to DCUI via the DRAC? Boot device has no importance here...

• Configuration of VLAN for vMotion (ESXi 5.1 update 3)

  Hello

  We use a cluster of ESXi 5.1 updated 3 guests with Enterprise Edition.

  Finally, our network is being upgraded and VLAN will be created for vMotion.  Currently, we use the local network for the management and vMotion (I know that's not good).

  Network administrator asks me to provide information concerning the requirement of the VLAN for vMotion.

  Is there any Document KB I can refer to mentioning that the administrator must put in place in the physical switch and I need to change in each vSwitch for vMotion on all ESXi hosts?

  Thank you

  Belong to your network administrator if it can link your vmotion IP to the same vlan that he will provide den it's possible.

  Otherwise, you will have to go to the configuration of your network administrator. so it can provide you the IP for the ports of vmotion.
