• get support scsi LUNS for the data store?

  I've been delving into the different classes available to HostSystem.queryHostConnectionInfo () and none of the properties appear to contain the id of naa I see when I look at LUNS on an HBA.  How do you get to LUN support for a data store?

  Figured it out.  For anyone else who wants to know:

  I created two actions, one to return a hash of the id of naa-online data store object and another action to return a hash of the naa-online drive scsi id

  // actions
  //getDatastoresKeyedByLUN
  var o_diskHash = new Properties();
  
  for each (var scsiDisk in u_host.config.storageDevice.scsiLun)
  {
    //System.log("-> LUN: " + scsiDisk.canonicalName);
    for each (var dataStore in u_host.datastore)
    {
    if (dataStore.info.hasOwnProperty("extent"))
    {
    for each (var scsiDiskPartition in dataStore.info.vmfs.extent)
    {
    if (scsiDiskPartition.diskName == scsiDisk.canonicalName)
    {
    o_diskHash.put(scsiDisk.canonicalName, dataStore);
    }
    }
    }
    }
  }
  
  return o_diskHash;
  
  // getScsiDisksKeyedByLUN
  var o_diskHash = new Properties();
  
  for each (var scsiDisk in u_host.config.storageDevice.scsiLun)
  {
    o_diskHash.put(scsiDisk.canonicalName, scsiDisk);
  }
  
  return o_diskHash;
  
  // in workflow
  for each (var can in dstoreMap.keys)
  {
    System.log(dstoreMap.get(can).name + "(" + lunMap.get(can).canonicalName + ")");

• Maximum of storage for the data store?

  Hello

  I have a server configuration with a hard drive 2 TB Raid 1 mirror set. I installed hypervisor on it without any problem. When I go to configure a virtual machine, I can't put the main virtual C drive beyond 256 GB or 0.25 TB. A few reasons why this is happening?

  The drives are SATA.

  Thanks in advance for your comments.

  Hello

  because you have formatted your VMFS Datastore with a block of 1 MB, which will result in a maximum size of 256 GB.

  Reformat your VMFS with a bigger unit.

• can't see vm after upgrade to esxi 3.5. VM folder exists on the DATA store.

  Test env.

  I upgraded to esx3.5 esxi

  When installing, I had an option to leave vmfs partition. After installation I don't see the VI client machine.

  Of course, I in/vmfs/volumes/datastore1/2003-1 with vmdk and etc.

  How to access the machine?

  Thank you.

  Hello mla!

  It seems you need to re-register the virtual machine. Two ways to do:

  (1) of VIClient, go to Configuration / Storage select your datastore righ - click on, choose Browse, navigate to your directory of the virtual machine, select the .vmx file and do a right click, then chooose "add to the inventory.

  (2) in the other direction its the COS. Log in and use the command: registry of vmware-cmd - s < full-path-to-the-VM-.vmx-file >

  Hope helps.

• Name of device for the data store list

  Need help with this simple script

  $datastores = get-Datastore-location "CXXV. Where-Object {$_.ExtensionData.Info.GetType ().} Name - eq "VmfsDatastoreInfo"}

  $myColCurrent = @)

  ForEach ($store in $datastores)

  {

  $myObj = "" | Select-Object Name, devicename

  $myObj.Name = $store.name

  Write-Host $myObj.Name

  $myObj.devicename = $store.ExtensionData.Info.Vmfs.Extent.DiskName

  Write-Host $myObj.devicename

  the name of the data store is writtenl properly but the devicename is empty and get this warning:

  WARNING: The 'Accessible' type of data store property is obsolete. Use the property 'State '.

  Strange thing is that the Script works lab powercli linking the vCenter lab. But gives the error in the production powecli server to vcenter prod.  powercli and vcenter server versions are the same.

  Help is greatly appreciated

  The extended property is an array.

  Try to change this line

  $myObj.devicename = $store.ExtensionData.Info.Vmfs.Extent.DiskName

  in this

  $myObj.devicename = [string]: join (",",($store.ExtensionData.Info.Vmfs.Extent |) %{$_. DiskName}))

  You can safely ignore the warning messages, or may disable them with the Set-PowerCLIConfiguration cmdlet and the DisplayDeprecationWarnings switch.

• Cannot download the files of the virtual machine for the data store

  Hello

  I get an error message "connection to the server timed out" while I'm trying to download the files from the virtual computer from the data store.

  Although the ESX and my laptop are on the same network, I get this error message.

  Please let me know if I need to take care of something.

  Thank you.

  I think that hard & .vsmp be used & locked is why you are unable to download it. Try to download the file, whereas the VMs system is turned off

• Increase the volume for the data store

  Hello

  Someone recognizes this problem?

  When you try to increase a volume of data store in vSphere4 we get the following message: "error during the configuration of the host. Failed to get the disk partition information.

  We use a MSA2324 of HP storage as a storage (data store) to our servers of vSphere. I increased the volume of the utility interface HP Storage manager 1.5 TB to 2.2 TB. So far so good. But when I try to increase the datastore in vSphere, this error message occurs.

  I've done this before, but now it doesn't seem to work. We have 25 active servers attached to this data store. I REALLY want to increase this volume online. It will probably work if I stop all virtual servers, restart the server VSphere and then increase the volume.

  Concerning

  Magnus

  Maximum supported LUN size is 2 TB minus 512 b.

• Stats for each data store

  I am writing a script to determine the way to read and write rates, the average number of read and write average requests read and write latency for each data store.

  I tried to do two different ways, with my numbers to end 0.

  $startdate = (get-Date-time Minute 7 - 0 - 0 second). AddDays(-1)

  $enddate = (get-Date)

  $datastores = get-datastore

  {foreach ($DS in $datastores)

  #1

  = [string] $dswriterate ([Math]: Round ((($DS.datastore.write.average |))) Measure - Object - average value). Average), 2))

  #2

  = [string] $dswriterate ([Math]: Round ((($DS.write.average |))) Measure - Object - average value). Average), 2))

  }

  I understand that Get-Stat does not work with a store of data entity.  It would be great if I could get help with that!

  That is right.

  You can use my Get-Stat2 function to retrieve available data store counters.

  See monitor the size of your vDisks

  With the QueryMetrics switch you can see which parameters are available.

• View the number of paths and the political path for each data store

  Hi all

  Seem to be stuck on this one. and all that seems to be able to find through topis and scripts for the air path setting. All I have to do is list each data store to its policy of access road and the number of path for the data store on the host computer.

  I'm gussiing it uses the get-vmhoststorage cmdlet?

  Any help much appriciated.

• install esxi 4.1 and the data store on the same server

  Hello

  I want to install esxi 4.1 and the data store on the same server.

  My problem is that I can't make partitions to really separate them and I would reinstall esxi without wiping the data store.

  Y at - it another way to put a record out of the raid only to install esxi.

  I also do not install on a USB key.

  Thank you

  Thank you

  AZEL,

  Can you give us more details about your current environment?  What is the size and the data store space used? Do you have any storage of additional network attached to the host (for backup purposes)?

  My assumptions of your post do you have 1 stand-alone host with ESXi 4.1 aready installed and you also have a local data store on the same host, but you want to re - install ESXi 4.1 while keeping the contents fo the data store.  Is this correct?

• where can I find an email for the Apple Store? Carl

  Hello

  Where can I find an email for the Apple Store?

  Update was not available with this Apple ID either because it was bought by another user or the item has been refunded or cancelled. There was an error in the [[Store. I don't want to lose my money, which is more than 100 euros.

  Help, please.

  Carl

  Please test after each of the steps that you have not already tried it. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes. Remember, no one here is Apple or can help in problems of service the customer.

  Step 1

  If you have recently changed something in your Apple ID account (for example, the password), log out of the App Store and reconnect.

  Step 2

  A purchased app can only be updated by logging into the App Store with the same identifier Apple which was originally used to buy it. There is no way around this restriction, which applies also to the free applications. If you can not connect to help ID the buyer, remove the app and reinstall it. You will have to pay for it, once again, as appropriate.

  Step 3

  If you receive the alert when you try to update a grouped iLife application, select the shopping page in the App Store and find the application in your purchase history. If there is a button marked ACCEPT on the right, click on it.

  If you have a used Mac, bundled apps related to Apple ID of the original owner and may apply to you. Reportedly, customer service has published codes redemption to some owners of second who asked, but it is not guaranteed.

  Step 4

  If you try to update the iLife or iWork applications that were installed from a purchased DVD, or if you have a refurbished Mac purchased directly from Apple, contact App Store customer service for a redemption code. If necessary, you will be asked for the part number of the DVD.

  Step 5

  In the App Store menu bar, select

  Store ▹ view my account

  Enter your Apple ID to the command prompt. In the lower right corner of the window that opens, click the reset button. Close the window.

• best way to put up a second NETWORK adapter for the data on NAS Server store

  I want to add a second NETWORK card if I can get the best possible performance for when I move the data store of the ESXi host to the NAS (which will also have a dual NIC). What is the best way to set up the NETWORK card on the ESXi host to achieve?

  PS - I am aware that I am limited to the real network speed of 1 Gbps and conditions and I agree with that (any of the virtual machines are eager resources or production).

  SOLVED... I think so. JPM300 got on the right track, but I was still not clear on it so I googled all this involving and finally landed on an iSCSI with MPIO configuration. I ended up as a result of this article (I use a Synology DS415 +, but the steps are pretty universal): How to use iSCSI targets on VMware ESXi with Multipath i/o - SynologyWiki. The article is old but always worked perfectly for me. I checked the two paths/NIC are used simultaneously, but I did not actual test to see if I have 200 MB/s of bandwidth (I've seen 80 MB/s when the cloning of virtual machines to the new iSCSI data store using vmfstools).

  I ran into a problem where the second path is not added during the alternating market; I removed the path shown and then was able to add the second path, then the first path again.

  Hope this helps someone.
