ESXi 5.5 nic teaming/LAG with trunking does not but it works on ESX 4.0.  Both are on the same switch. What gives?

I have two hosts (vhost1 = ESX 4.0, vhost2 = 5.5 ESX) both are configured for the Group and both connected to a switch of 1544 Adtran L3 (named sw01).  vhost1 has been in production for several years with the config below and has been solid as a rock.  I'm trying to reproduce the installation of grouping/collage on vhost2 and it does not work when are associated but will work when you are using a single NIC (with or without aggregation).

To be more specific about what does not work, two virtual servers have "Network server" (vlan 8) defined as a group of ports. Both physical and virtual servers on the same vlan cannot ping or resolve queries arp for virtual machines on vhost2.    Everything that is sent from a different subnet can connect to the virtual machines on each virtual server.

So the question is this: why not ESX 5.5 works as ESX 4.0 when the configs are also near identical, as I can make them and they are connected to the same switch?

Thanks for any input you can provide!

Hello

Do you share the vmnic for ESXi management and network of the VM?

Try to follow the steps in this KB: VMware KB: NICs using EtherChannel grouping allows intermittent network connectivity in ESXi

Trying to team adapters using EtherChannel, network connectivity is disrupted on an ESXi host. This problem occurs because grouping NIC properties will not propagate to the network management portgroup in ESXi.

When you configure the ESXi host for grouping of NETWORK cards in attributing to the road based on ip hashload balancing, this configuration is not propagated to the portgroup management network.

Workaround

Note: to reduce the possibility network loss please change the route based on the hash of IP using this method of balancing load vSwitch

  1. Close all ports in the physical switch team leaving a single port as active.
  2. Change the Route based on ip hash vSwitch and load balancing management Portgroup.
  3. Set up the physical switch port channel.
  4. Activate the physical switch ports.

Notes: Using this method will avoid a loss of connection when you switch to a port channel. Also make sure that under the properties for vmk portgroup # used for network management you tick the box "Enabled".

    Hi Dwright,

    1. have you made changes on the computer recently?
    2. not the problem only occurs when you watch netflix on Blu - Ray player?

    Method 1
    I suggest you try the steps from the following link to fix the server DNS does not problem.
    a. click on start and then Control Panel.
    b. go to the networking and sharing Center and then click on change adapter settings.
    c. right-click on connection to the Local network and select Properties.
    d. Select Internet Protocol Version 6, and then click Properties.
    e. Select obtain DNS server automatically an address and press Ok.
    f. Select obtain IP address automatically.
    g. Repeat steps for Internet Protocol version 4 as well.

  • Switch ports connected with cross cable on the same switch...

    Hi experts,

    Just got a doubt.

    If both a stand-alone switch ports are connected by a crossover cable, how will be the stp of attitude toward this scenario...

    Thank you

    Arun

    Hi arun,

    As we all know the switches use according to criteria of application PLEASE:

    (1) to root the lowest BID

    (2) a low-cost path to the bridge root

    (3) OFFERED the lowest sender

    (4) minimum port priority

    (5) the lowest port id.

    So in your senario until number 4 allvalues will be equal and there will be a match tie. So for port breakage id will be used and the port with the higher port number will be blocked and low port id will be in a State of fwding.

    Example:

    If you've been through e1/1 and e1/2 cable on the same switch then 1/1 b in condition of fwding all-in-1/2 will b in the blocking state.

    HTH,

    Kind regards

  • When I uninstall an application virtualized with ThinApp does not eliminate the root folder, any suggestions to fix this?

    When I uninstall an application virtualized with ThinApp does not eliminate the root folder, any suggestions to fix this?

    Can you try to change the shortcuts = active on all entry Points setting?

    Change of Shortcuts=%Programs%\Check Point\Identity Shortcuts=%Programs%\IdentityAgent Agent

    In this way, we can see if it's the second folder level do. Because when I use only one file, I don't get the issue you reported.

    Out of curiosity:

    It is a Security Check Point Software? What is doing? It works like a ThinApp package?

    Hello

    Yes both licenses will be in conflict and it will activate CS6 with creative cloud.

    You can only use a license on a computer and you can also download the previous version of the creative cloud.

  • Problem with VCB does not

    Hello-

    I using VCB 1.5 update 2 to make backups of a few virtual machines and until I upgraded my hosts 4.1 update 1 (8.3.7 build 381511) and eventually my VM to the new VM tools things worked well.  All my VMs running Windows 2008 R2.

    Once I have updated to the latest VMTools, I started getting the "error: cannot open the disk: NBD_ERR_GENERIC" error.  Research on it points to disable "disc. EnableUUID', which does not, but its my understanding is that disables application Quiesce, I need because of servers running a database.

    As I troubleshoot-made the question, I found if I rolled back the version of VMTools back to the latest version of the 4.0 tools (4.0.0 build 398348), VCB starts to work again with 'the drive. EnableUUID' set to True when running on the host computer 4.1 (just shouted at me that my version of the tools is outdated).

    Are there other work autour, I have not yet found this or I'm stuck running the old version of VMTools until a later version to test?

    Thank you!

    Support for VCB will disappear in favor of the storage API. Rather than wait to see if there is a difficulty, I would start by looking at another way to save. Many backup products have added support to use the API. If you have a license for this I also glanced at the VDR unit. http://VMware.com/go/data-recovery

  • Dell N2024 - NIC Teaming (LAG, LACP)

    Can you point me to some documents or provide the steps how to create team on Dell N2000 Series switch ports.

    I set up a team of the NIC on a server r2 Windows Server 2012.  I need to know what needs to be configured on the N2000 Dell series switch to make sure it's working properly.  It is my understanding that you need to configure the server and on the ports of the switch stack.  In my case, I'm going to a team member of the server connected to port 1 of the switch 1 and the other plugged into port 1 of the switch 2.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Hello

    It depends on what mode of grouping you use on the server. If you use the Windows team work construction you can choose between independent, does not require any static configuration or on the switch and LACP what to do. Broadcom and Intel Group also have similar options. To configure a switch port channel, you select the ports you want and use the channel-group command to add them to a port channel.
