ESXi 4.1 Westmere EVC does not not with Ivy Bridge CPU

Hi all

I'm under 4.1U3. I have a cluster that has 8 guests inside. 6 of them are processors E7-2860. Two of them are processors E5-2680v2 (new). vCenter will allow me to select CVS. However after activated and I turn on a few virtual machines on one of the new hosts it tells me "the cluster cannot be configured with vMotion compatibility mode Enhanced selected; Features CPU disabled by this mode are currently in use by power or suspended virtual machines in the cluster. »

Also, when I try to migrate one of these virtual machines for new guests to one of the E7-2860 hosts it won't pass validation saying "CPU host is incompatible with the requirements of the virtual machine to leval CPUID register 0 x 1"ecx".»

The only thing I can think is the E5-2680v2 is not supported on 4.1 and so CVS is not working properly. Any ideas on that?

I tried to add this line, but there was no change.

I found that if I change

cpuidMask.val.1.eax = '0 x 00020651' (the value defined by VCA)

TO

cpuidMask.val.1.eax = "0x000106a4".

vMotion will validate.

I found that by creating a new cluster and defining the level of evc to Nehalem. I put one of the new hosts in this cluster and observed what has changed/etc/vmware/config. I noticed that the following values have been defined in the new cluster.

cpuidMask.val.1.eax = "0x000106a4".

cpuidMask.val.1.ecx = "0x0098e23d".

So I put this host in the cluster of origin and the value of these values and vmotion worked. The two vmotion from the new host for other hosts and also hosts of origin to the new host has worked.

So I tried just to set the value of eax and leaving the ecx value to the default value of the bunch and who also worked. So I don't know why vCenter is reporting an issue with the register ecx register when its eax which was the problem.

If at this point, I think that my options are to create a cluster with the new hosts until we have upgraded 5.5 or walking with the value of eax changed for now. The problem with running with the changed value is vCenter it resets the host goes into maintenance mode or reset.

  • 5.1 ESXi host is showing that does not

    Hi all

    We are to vCenter 5.5 with Environment 5.1 ESXi hosts. On one of our ESXi hosts, we sometimes get to see 5.1 ESXi, (build 799733) host is not responding and the virtual machines on this subject are displayed as status disconnected at the end of their names.

    When this happens, we are able to ping on the ESXi host and virtual machines are also able to ping / react to what is good, but he continues to be on different hosts at different times, all what I do when this occurs is to try to reconnect on the ESXi host and it connects fine and machines virtual hosting on she will return to the State normal and everything will be normal on this host. I want to understand why this is happening at different times and on different hosts of ESXi and ensure that this should not happen again in the future or find the before root cause is even worse.

    so, could someone please look at this and let me know where to start troubleshooting this to find the root cause.

    Thanks in advance

  • Satellite Pro M10 PS630E does not start after upgrading CPU

    I tried to install a new processor for my Toshiba Satellite Pro M10-PS630E.

    I follow the maintenance manual, later the computer change is not star upward.
    When I connet to power it show that the luminous power of orange/amber color and make 5 flashes, then 3 and then restart blinking.

    My question is "is it posible to do a reset of the bios parametrers" or "reset the CMOS?
    Is it possible to get it working again.

    Hello

    The flashing light means that it has detected a hardware problem on the motherboard!
    Perhaps you have used a wrong CPU and is not compatible.

    Perhaps the BIOS does not support this processor and therefore this flashing error code appears.

    What say you can't update the BIOS! First of all, that's not possible since only focused on the victory of BIOS is available for download. You must run the Windows operating system to update the BIOS.
    Secondly the update of the BIOS won't help you with this problem!

    You must use a CPU that is fully compatible!

  • Satellite Pro 2100 - works does not with 2 sticks of RAM

    Hi all

    I've been with sticks of 2 x 512 MB RAM from a reliable supplier that reassures me that this RAM is compatible with the SP2100 laptop.

    With the two sticks installed, as soon as the machine is running, I get no display and 5 beeps (1 long, a follow-up of 4 short beeps). Each stick of RAM work well individually, and I also tested slot A and b. Thus, the 2 sticks of RAM are working alone and work the two slots. It seems that this machine has a problem with 2 sticks of RAM.

    The ACPI BIOS is up to date (v1.40). I also tried the old 256 MB stick with one of the new sticks of 512 MB - same problem. I tried this as the supplier of memory mentioned this Toshiba may take only 1 GB maximum.

    Any ideas why two sticks of RAM does not work?

    Thanks in advance and amicably.

    James

    Hello

    You are right. The laptop must be able to manage memory 1024Mo. (2 x 512 MB)
    Due to your description, I think that both modules are compatible, but cannot play together.
    In my opinion, you should use two modules with the same specifications

    Try to use the modules recommended by Toshiba;
    PC2100 256 MB (PA3127U - 1 M 25)
    PC2100 512 MB (PA3164U - 1 M 51)

  • Tecra A11 - 11N does not start after upgrading CPU

    Hello

    I would like to do an upgrade of the processor for my Tecra A11 i5 - 430 M 11N to a probably much faster i5 processor. I thought that the i5 - 580 M'd, but the laptop does not start when I installed this processor.

    I started the 430M, done some research on the internet and discovered that the 580 M has a very high FSB speed, and that is what probably does not work / not compatible with my machine.

    http://Ark.Intel.com/products/43537/
    http://Ark.Intel.com/products/49653
    http://Ark.Intel.com/products/49652

    and also http://ark.intel.com/

    Now, I went back to the computer store, returned the 580M and got an i5 - 560 M compared to its specifications as I've seen it would not compatible because it has the same speed of the FSB with the 430 M.

    I then later in the day tried to install this cpu as an upgrade, BUT alas!
    It STILL does not START ALSO.
    I was dumfounded left. The processors in the same line of the family are supposed to be compatible between them provided: lithography, FSB and socket type are similar.

    Or what I'm missing here?
    I did upgrades of CPU in many cases for desktop computers and laptops, and this is the first that has left me with no word to say!

    Please offer assistance or advice.

    Hello

    Recommend to check this doc from Toshiba:

    + Can I put th CPU, screen, or motherboard in my Toshiba laptop? +
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/FAQ35006D000RR01.htm

    Upgrading the CPU is not supported (officially).
    The point is that, even if the chipset would support the new processor, it would be possible that the laptop wouldn't start because of compatibility problems between the BIOS or other components on the motherboard and the new processor.

    An iPhone will pair not via Bluetooth to a computer (Mac or Windows) with the exception of hotspot and then only if your cell phone plan he supports. See below for more information. https://discussions.Apple.com/docs/doc-7722

    If you try to use the procedure of transfer/continuity or AirDrop, which does not have Bluetooth but devices don't are NOT matched.

    Hello

    It's a normal reaction after replacing the hardware that you have replaced.

    The hard drive with the installed operating system contains the old motherboard drivers, etc..

    They must be replaced with the new motherboard, drivers etc.

    You will need to reinstall the operating system and then install the new drivers of motherboard (you should have a diskette of drivers for it), if the new installation does not probably them, that it will not...

  • Dell Dimension 4600 does not start after upgrading CPU

    Hello

    First of all, I tried to send this last night but received a message on my post approval by moderator? Not yet been approved but seen other people have posted with success more recently. Do not know what is happening.

    In any case, put his hand on a 3.4 Ghz HT P4 Northwood 512 Kb 800 Mhz FSB for £10 on Ebay to upgrade my mother enough old Dimension 4600 which has a 2.8 Ghz P4 512 KB 533 FSB inside... However, when I install it the computer does not light and shows just a light amber. The readers and fans still spin but there is no display. The computer works normally when I put the old one back in.

    I think somehow it is a power supply problem as the new processor uses 20w more energy than the old 2.8 Ghz one. Someone at - it ideas? Just trying to figure if I bought a bad CPU, so I can return.

    Thank you

    Andrew,

    It is not a power supply problem, it's incompatible, or a bad processor problem.

  • Active state with menu manual not working does not with child pages

    I created a horizontal menu manual on my master page with two links (at WORK and about me). I did them manually as it was the only way I could work out how the style and the menu items to distance as I wanted. I created an active state that works for the main page WORK and the about me page.

    However, I have four child pages under the work, but when you click on one of them that the active State for labor (a green line under work) does not appear. When I return to the menu options to try to "solve" the problem and choose "All pages" all child pages appear in the main menu I want and does not solve the problem. I chose manual that I could put the line to show that under the term of WORK and not all field.

    Here is my Web site to demonstrate the problem: www.robertgreens.com

    Any help to fix this would be appreciated with gratitude!

    I managed to solve this problem (with the help of Live Chat Support). I needed to create an autour work and provide a 'normal' State which resembled the active state, so when you click on the pages of the child, it looked like work page parent menu (with a green line) below. This meant that I had to duplicate master page and do the same (deletion of the green line in the menu of work) for the words Me page. And now, everything looks the same: www.robertgreens.com

  • Laptop does not start after upgrading CPU

    Hello

    I have a dv2528ea and I decided to upgrade the processor and the RAM. According to the manual of the T8300 is compatible, so I bought one on eBay (so-called new). When I powered the laptop, the bios screen appeared as usual, but nothing more happens. Among the options available in this screen only works the "ESC" (boot messages I think). I can't access the configuration. The CPU, RAM, HARD drive and DVD drive is correctly detected, the BIOS and video BIOS are "shaded" don't know what it means.

    I know that I didn't break something because after putting the T7100 back in place, the computer worked fine.

    So my question is: is the burned T8300? Do I have a bios problem?

    I've never updated my bios (since 2007) and the CPU is not physically damaged, but this last part can doesn't mean anything...

    Thanks in advance, Pedro.

    Hi, Pedro.

    I hope it will do the trick.  F.0Une is old and I think that's the reason why your processor does not work.

    The problem is that you are under Windows 7.

    You can put Vista on it and flash, or do you know how to make a flash out of the file based BACK?

    I don't know how.

    I'm saying that you are taking a considerable risk if you flash in Windows 7.
