ESXi 5 - W2012 VM - Dedup

Have a virtual Windows 2012 R2 machine that uses EMC VNX block-level storage.  The VNX does not block Dedup, but Windows 2012.

Hosts run ESXi 5.0 U2.  I saw no specific mention of W2012 Dedup support in documentation of ESXi.    Would there be a

question if W2012 has the Dedup?  In addition, we back up our virtual machines using AvaMar, which makes Dedup.  Do not know if the backup process would

performance issues when the storage is already Dedup had.  Any advice would be appreciated.

The dedupe W2012 should work without any problems - it is a native feature of BONE that is not restricted by hardware type (virtual or physical machine). Regarding how this is done with the backups etc. I guess the answer is simple to test this in your own environment.

See you soon,.

  • 8.3 OMSA @ ESXi 6.0 U2 @ R515-> cannot log into the website OMSA to ESXi HOST.--

    Hello guys.

    I've updated my ESXi of U3 5.0 to 6.0 U2 and I lost my OMSA. I can not connect from the web page.

    For the update of the host, I used this ISO file:
    . VMware-VMvisor-Installer-6.0.0.update02-3620759.x86_64-Dell_Customized-A00.iso

    After that, I installed OM-SrvAdmin-Dell-Web-WINX64-8.3.0-1908_A00. EXE to a VM W2012S to this host. I can open the web site to connect, but when I try to connect to my ESXi HOST, I received this message: failed to connect... connection error.

    When I saw that I began to check a few things, I ran: 'list of vib software esxcli' and I saw:
    Name Version Date seller installation acceptance level

    Another very strange for me, is that I can't see any reading of the sensors to Interface web server: HOST /... / or Vsphere Client.
    But I can read a large number of web page Idrac and ESXi SSH data using ' esxcli ipmi sdr list material.

  • Cannot take snapshots of suspended after 6 ESXi upgrade

    Hi all, first time around;

    A few days ago, I performed an ESXi spend 5.5 to 6 by Update Manager. Everything worked like a charm, until I realized that I can take is more suspended snapshots of the virtual machines running on the host computer. Tried W2K8R2, W2012, VM Version 8/11 and VMWare Tools old and more recent versions. Whenever I try to get a snapshot of put it to sleep I get these errors in the virtual machine vmware.log file. Virtual disk service is running in the operating systems:

  • POS for ESXI backup

    Hello

    I'm under two-node esxi cluster. Run 10 vm in total with a capacity ranging from 300 GB to 750 GB.

    Got a box of SIN and the thought of attaching the backup of the virtual machine on that storage. Can configure it like NFS or CIFS only.

    Few questions;

    1 would like to know that means the limit of .5TB, 1 TB or 2 TB in POS devices?

    2 Does .5TB are limit for CIFS, 1 TB to 2 TB on VMFS or NFS store? This means destination anywhere where I'm going to keep backup of virtual machine?

    3. as the size of the VM/s total in my case is about 3 TB and 4 TB does that mean I can't backup all my vm with a camera or made with 2 device?

    4 FAQ tell a device by ESXI that means I limit of 2 devices in 2 host cluster?

    Breg,

    Sushil

    1. While EGGS installation where should I have to install it? He the dedupe destination stores say 3.02 TB as above and it may be any little other than dedupe store LUNS.

    It should be deployed in the vCenter (vCenter where VMS to protect). You can always start with a provisioning end if you do not 3.02 TB of space.

    See this article from blog for a rapid deployment & configuration - http://onevirtual.wordpress.com/2013/11/15/vdpvsphere-data-protection-5-5-deploy-configure-quick-start/

    2. in case if it is other than the store of de-duplication how will it will be added to the egg apparatus.

    You have the option of choosing several data stores all in configuration - the article above should cover this information too.

    3. as NAS deduplication box will be present on the production network and will be accessible via the network of production only. Does have any performance issues?

    Check if you can take advantage of adding hot instead of backup on network.

  • STOR. ESXi and E BASICS

    I have this problem:
    We use servers that are virtualized with ESXi Hypervisor.
    And the Windows operating system uses the STOR. E BASICS 500 GB to backup their data.

    Now a hard drive of this type felt, the hard drive is about 1 year ago.
    So I want to swap the drive with one of the same only more recent type, but now ESXi does not realize it.

    In a Windows operating system, the drive works fine, but ESXi, I have a chance!
    Y at - it a new firmware or something differnet changed?

    Experiences?

    The STOR. E BASICS 500 GB 2.5 "is the USB3.0 external HARD disk.
    It s a device plug n - and - play, requiring no additional drivers.

    Toshiba says that this HARD drive works properly under Microsoft Windows XP/Vista / Windows® 7 8/Windows/Windows 8.1

    The HARD disk supports the USB3.0 standard, and this means that you must 900mA can get it recognised correctly.
    In the case where the drive HARD isn't recognized on USB 2.0, I recommend you to use a USB cable to Y which allows to connect the HARD drive to two USB 2.0 ports

  • Mac OS x won't start on mac pro esxi host

    We have the latest mac pro machine functioning as a construction of host 5.5.0 esxi 2718055.  We have setup the virtual Mac machine of the as a waiter in a magic triangle to our Mac OSX windows domain configuration.  Everything was up and running for some time now not really used because we delayed the purchase of our projected deployment Mac until this year.  I logged on today, and he says he has several updates and necessary to restart, so we issued the command reboot. Now the machine won't start upward.  It starts the boot process you see the Apple logo and progress bar starts moving on a 1/4 of the way and then it just turned off. I tried several of the commands below in the link, but nothing works, it just turns off. I tried to use my mac with vm ware fusion and the connection to the host and always change. I have triple checked that I am in the comments window active when you press these commands, but the problem is it only stays on during approximately 5 seconds then stops. I have removed from the inventory of esxi and re added, as well as restarted the ESXi host as well.  The virtual machine is sitting on the local storage of the esxi server.

    https://support.Apple.com/en-AU/HT201255

    Has anyone else had a problem similar to this?  I'm getting to this section and the progress bar starts to go, but then stops and turns off virtual machine.  How can I enter in address this further.

    Okay, so I went through the list and now I got using the command option r. tried before but maybe I press the keys long enough.  I was using my mac book pro and pro fusion to do all this. Couldn't make it work when you use the client heavy vsphere on my windows machine. Repair disk permissions is grayed out. I ran check disk permissions and got a ton of errors, ran check disk and he stopped saying repair the disk. Ran repair disk and he stopped to say that he cannot repair the disk, backup as many files as possible, reformat the drive and restore your backup files.

    Is there another way to try to fix this sucker, or is he at this point a POS and build a new one?

  • PowerEdge Raid700 in RD540 with ESXi Thinkserver

    Hello

    I'll put up a hypverisor 5.5 ESXi update 2 on a lenovo RD540. There is a RAID700 controller.

    I use 3 HARD drive in a RAID6 configured with the tool of the bios (Mega RAID LSI)

    The server works fine, but I don't see the healthy of the RAID on the ESXi.

    I don't see the virtual disk, not the adapter of storage or physical disks. If one lose a disc ESXi does not know, I hear only the PIF from the server.

    How can I solve this problem?

    If I use the "Lenovo easy start' to install ESXi RAID adapter will be with ESXi?

    Thank you in advance.

    Guyz!

    This will be good news for all those who want to wear metal ESXi W530 5.1.

    With simple clicks of customization, the whole installation runs smooth and Nice.

    For those who are interested. Answer in the thread and a lot of fun to share with you the way to do it.
