ESXi 5 Server does not recognize HP StorageWorks 81B HBA

I'll put up 4 ESXi 5 servers attached to a HP P2000 SAN. I'm quite familiar with ESX and VMware. have been running ESX 3.5 for about 3 years. This new environment gives me a problem that ESXi 5 does not see the HBAs HP StorageWorks 81 b installed on servers HP Proliant DL 380 G7. I see that it is a known issue and I have been tring to follow the directions outlined in the RFSO HP (see link below). I the document is poorly written and not very clear. I'm stuck at step 3 where it says:

"Install the HBA driver. Download driver HBA Brocade, extract the compressed file and burn (or climb) the ISO image. Download and install VMware vSphere CLI. Open the CLI and change directory C:\Program VMware vSphere CLI\bin .

Run the following command and check do not omit the dot and bar backslash:

".\Vihostupdate.pl server 10.12.243.130 - - root username - - password Password1-- install - - bundle E:\offline-bundle\BCD-bfa-2.3.0.2-00000-offline_bundle-344638.zip"

I downloaded the ISO file and the file and the path "offline-bundle\BCD-bfa-2.3.0.2-00000-offline_bundle-344638.zip" exist on the CD but when I run the command in the CLI, it says "error connecting to the server" ". https://localhost/SDK/WebService ' ' host is perhaps not a vcenter or ESX server. I try to run it from a Windows Server that is not a vCenter server but how I go this from a vCenter server if I can not see the HBAs and therefore cannot see the SAN and am not currently in a position to implement the vCenter server. I also replaced the 10.12.243.130 IP address IP address of the ESX Server and that has not worked, and of course, I entered the correct password for the field 'Password1 '. I could run this command from the ESX Server, if so, what would be the command line? In any case, I'm stuck at this point. I called HP support and they were no help at all.

http://h20000.www2.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/document.jsp?lang=en & CC = UK & TaskID = 110 & prodSeriesId = 3662826 & prodTypeId = 12169 & objectid = c02773230

According to HCL, the adapter is not supported on ESXi 5.0.

However it looks like there is a driver for ESXi 5.0 to http://downloads.vmware.com/d/details/dt_esxi50_brocade_bfa_3000/dHRAYnRqdGpiZHAlJQ== that you could try (at your own risk) rather than the one you mentioned. Installation instructions are included in the zip file.

  • VMware server does not recognize my cpu

    Hello.

    I installed debian squeeze on an IBM x 3650 M2 wth a quad core xeon E5504

    I use 2.6.32 - 3-vserver-686-bigmem in kernel and if I cat/proc/cpuinfo I can see all 4 core.

    VMware server is correctly installed and now 2 virtual machine is running, but I see in the web gui:

    Processors Intel Xeon E5504 processor @ 2.00GHz 1 CPU x 2 hearts

    any suggestions?

    Hello

    Yes, your server and the cpu are supported for ESX (i) 3.5 U4 and superior.

    In the VMWare compatibility guide, nothing is said about compatibility with vmware server 2.

    If you check the compatible processors in the guide to vmware server 2 , you'll see vmware server just supports until the Intel Xeon Quad Core 5300 series, not the new series 5400 or 5400. That's why vmware server 2 recognizes your Quad Core E5504 as Dual Core. Because it does not support your CPU.

    IMHO, if I were you, I'll try to use your server esxi 4.0 U1. It is a best product of vmware server virtualization and supports your CPU.

    Best wishes / Saludos.

  • Dell Openmanage 7.4 64-bit on Poweredge 6850 with 2012 Windows Datacenter Server does not recognize the storage controllers

    Hi, masters!

    I installed the package Dell OMSA 7.4 (OM-SrvAdmin-Dell-Web-WINX64-7.4.0-866_A00) on my Poweredge 6850 with Windows Server 2012 - Datacenter. Everything works fine, except for the storage controller. The OMSA displays the message: no storage controller found. Can you help me?
    Thank you

    Diramos

    Hello Diramos,

    That is a difficult question because OMSA stopped supporting older systems of the gen 8 back to 6.x what OMSA 6.5 works with 8 Gen but most customers will find the more stable 5.5 with 8 gen systems.  Now, the other problem is that Sever 2012 is not listed as an operating system supported for Dell 8th gen systems either.  Obviously, it works, since you have it installed, but you may encounter compatibility problems.  Particularly like this this is not a systems management configuration that will work well.

    Windows 2008 R2 work OMSA 6.5.

  • Server does not start after the installation of the USB bootable, ESXi

    Hello

    I installed VMware ESXi 5 on a SSD drive using a bootable USB key, but my server does not automatically start since the SSD after installation. I can boot ESXi in the offered by the BIOS boot menu.

    The startup configuration is perhaps incorrect because during the installation of the USB drive is present, but after the installation, it is not?

    Also has anyone seen this problem?

    Kind regards

  • ESXi does not recognize the cd/dvd on HP DL380

    I'm new to the hypervisor and really need some advice on a DL 380 I put up as a box QA. After installing ESXi 3.5, I created the virtual machine I need and proceeds to start a virtual machine, but was surprised to see that the server does not see the CD drive? I guess that would not as surprising, if it's a customized version white box, but a HP DL380, only one of the most common servers in the world?

    Anyone has any advice or suggestions about what is a hotfix for this.

    Thank you

    Robert

    In addition, once you can convert many of your applications and or OS installs in ISO format, you can just use your Infrastructure Manager client and connect an ISO to some VM you must have a 'CDROM' inserted in to.

    For example, if you install Citrix and you have an ISO copy locally or on your network, you can simply start the virtual machine and then click 'connect/disconnect devices on CD' point to your ISO image. VMWare then moved the 'CD' for the virtual machine and it will be accessible as would a normal CDROM.

    When you do that, your local CDROM in the ESX box really is not used for a lot more outside upgrades to ESX 3.5, and even what is done remotely today for ESX 4.

    Hope this helps

    Maybe the DVDs are scratched... Have you tried different types of DVD and you are sure that the drives are ok?

    You can also try to remove the server - and lowerfilters in the registry. So follow the instructions in this Microsoft article:

  • Homer in Windows Server does not connect to the internet.

    I installed Windows Home Server on a self-built media server. Everything on the hardware is working properly. The server software is installed. The ethernet line is connected to my Linksys router. The power light is on decision-making on the case ethernet connection. The power led is on the router where the ethernet is connected. So, in my view, that the issue is not material.
    Problems:
    1. the server does not connect to the internet.
    2. my computer does not recognize the server when I install the Windows Home Server Connector software.
    3. the wizard of Linksys on my computer does not recognize the server as a "new device".

    I feel like I'm missing a driver, maybe a driver of ethernet controller, but do not know how to diagnose the problem.  I downloaded the Windows tool that identified the problems I listed, but solutions are not feasible.

    Any suggestions?
