ESXi and equipment series

Hello

I would like to move some of our servers the 1.06 Server vm to esxi 3.5. All the vm is running centos 5.2.

I have yet 2 servers to convert, because of the physics of the serial ports not supported in esx.

The first has an analog modem on ttyS0, secondary had a GSM modem on ttyS0.

As far as I know, it is not possible to connect a usb device to a virtual computer on esxi (or at least, I can't add a usb controller), so usb & lt;-& gt; series converters are not a viable option.

For the modem, I thought internally. Are there compatible models, so that I should look at?

For the GSM modem, I thought the series & lt;-& gt; ethernet converters. Is there a pro/consfor those?

Thank you

Giuliano

For USB devices, we use USB to Ethernet that works really well and is much better than plug in USB devices in any server.

I don't think its possible to get a serial through ESX device, is it USB-> Serial converter?  If you can you use it in conjunction with the USB to Ethernet

  • a few questions about ESXi and SAN CF with HP P2000 G3

    Hello everyone!

    I am new to ESXi and SAN, then I need help for her.

    I have Encolosure C7000 system with 4 blades BL460c already installed ESXi 5.1U1 (HP custome ISO image). Everything works fine now, but I do not understand something:

    -What is the management network which I use vSphare Client to connect to? It is a private network to manage ESXi servers what difference with VMnetwork used by Virtual Machines? Because I've set up an IP address for this connection manually, but it is of course separate with IP addresses, I used on Virtual Machines.

    -If my system has problem, so I have to reinstall ESXi, license keys can be used again? Already, I have 8 license key for 4 blades (2 CPUs per server), but they have not yet used. Because I am new to ESXi, cause I had to reinstall ESXi several times to understand.

    -When I install successful ESXi, I don't know how to start working with SAN. What should I configure P2000 before it be plugged into the SAN switch? Or I can plug it then config later? Because I don't see it on the ESXi server. And on the OS I installed on the Guest Virtual Machines, I see nothing new in Device Manager. I thought that this guest operating system will detect the mezzanine card. But I see only mezzanine card that connect to the P2000 by SAN switch in ESXi (see image here http://img203.imageshack.us/img203/684/dsc04088k.jpg ). To my knowledge, I think that ESXi server have to detect the P2000 as hardware device. Can someone teach me step by step install and configure a San on ESXi? Or show me a tutorial because I searched but only iSCSI results.

    My devices:

    01 7.1 HP BLc7000 CTO 3 IN LCD ROHS Encl.

    04 BL460c G8 servers HP FlexFabric 8.5 10 Gb 2 p 554FLB FIO blade adapter

    Thanks for any help, sugession or comment!

Because I've set up an IP address for this connection manually, but it is of course separate with IP addresses, I used on Virtual Machines.

    Yes, it's a separate network used only for traffic management between ESXi hosts and vCenter - it is also the network used to connect to the environment - that's different, then the network used by your virtual machines

    -If my system has problem, so I have to reinstall ESXi, license keys can be used again? Already, I have 8 license key for 4 blades (2 CPUs per server), but they have not yet used. Because I am new to ESXi, cause I had to reinstall ESXi several times to understand.

    Yes the license keys can be reused, and if you use vCenter licenses will be managed by vCenter

    -When I install successful ESXi, I don't know how to start working with SAN. What should I configure P2000 before it be plugged into the SAN switch? Or I can plug it then config later?

    Yes, you will be able to configure the San later - by default, the virtual machine will not see the SAn, as it is virtualized by your ESXi host - all the VM will see is a virtual SCSi disk - this doc's guide to vmware for storage - http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-51/topic/com.vmware.ICbase/PDF/vsphere-esxi-vcenter-server-511-storage-guide.pdf - you can visit the website of HP they might have documentation on configuring P2000 for vSphere -.

  • Difference between the Tecra A, M and S series

    Hello
    What really is the difference between a, M and S Tecra series? Which should I choose?
    It is obvious that the Tecra is supposed to be a high-end standard in the range of the portable Toshiba, but why they do different Tecra series?

    I'm sorry if this has never asked, but can't find the answer.
    And thanks to all who responded.

    Regars,
    -nov

    Hello

    I am user Tecra M and each series has my own opinion design and hardware configuration. The availability of different series can be nice for potential buyers and costumers let them choose the preferred product.

    If you need Tecra for business, I can really recommend laptop Tecra. I use it more than two years and it works like the first day. It is very important that you know exactly what you want to do exactly, and you can choose your favorite.

    If you want to write what you expect from a laptop. It will be perhaps easier to give you a specific recommendation.

    Good bye

  • Floppy disk drives for Satellite Pro 4200 and 4300 series

    I have four portable Satellite Pro - a 4340, a 4310, a 4270 and a 4280 and I have trouble getting the 4310 and 4270 to recognize a particular floppy drive. My understanding is that Mitsumi D353G FDDs were consistent with these laptops 4200 and 4300 series but I can't get the 4270 and the 4310 for «see» They will all be two however 'see' an FDD alternative I - a Pansonic JU-226A202FC, but I only have one of them and two laptops needing a floppy drive replacement. I tried a D353G I know (from my 4280) works in the 4310 and the 4270 but nothing helped. I'm keeping an eye on for an another Pansonic JU - 226A202FC FDD on ebay but no luck so far. It's frustrating because I don't know a FDD D353G expected to operate in the 4270 4310 and I have two spare ones that I wanted to use. I looked in TSETUP.exe and you can see no settings that I can change to make these laptops see floppy D353G so any help or insight greatly appreciated readers. Someone there a 4270 a 4310 runs successfully a floppy D353G drive or is this a quirk and these two particular models were made only to work with a Pansonic JU-226A202FC floppy drive not D353G disk drives? Clues?

    Hello

    Unfortunately, I am not a technician but I guess that there is clearly a problem with compatibility. It is possible that the assignment of pins is different and you cannot use them. If you want to have a precise explanation, you should contact technicians. I'm sure they have diagrams of the motherboard and can give you a good explanation and Tips how to handle this problem.

    Good luck!

  • Differences between 2000 WLC and 4400 series

    In addition to the number of access points supported, what are the differences in features between the WLC 2000 and 4400 series?

    On 2006, you have 4 ports on the back, which can support up to 3 AP directly connected and the port other than your connection to the network and it supports no LAG (aggregation of links). The ports are 10 / 100M, and he cannot be an anchor for a group of mobility.

    On the 4400, either you have a 4402 or a 4404, 2 a 2 interfaces concert and the 4404 has 4 Gig interfaces, you cannot directly connect AP to a 4400. The two 4400's support LAG, and they can serve as anchor points in a group of mobility. What are the major differences in them. They set up near the top of the same and interact with the trendy and the same wireless networks.

  • Protocols for switches 300 and 500 series

    These protocols are supported by the 300 and 500 series switches?

    • TCP
    • UDP/Unicast
    • UDP/Multicast
    • UPnP
    • RTCP
    • RTSP

    Thank you

    Dear Alejandro,

    If you mean the switch weather can pass through these protocols the answer is a definitive Yes. If you meant something can else you please describe what you mean?

    For example, THAT TCP is supported in a way that it can filter traffic based on the TCP port (layer feature 3 +), so can he do to UDP. Multicast is also managed through IGMP support. About RTCP and RTSP how / why would you use it?

    Thank you and best regards,

  • I'm trying to generate an arithmetic and geometric series/sequence with JavaScript.

    I try to generate an average arithmetic and geometric

  • vCloud Director: using different groups of ESXi and vCenters

    Apologies for a question very newb-ish, but my knowledge of the vCD is very limited.

    VCD of can control and manage the following:

    1. multiple ESXi clusters under the vCenter even?

    vCD-> ESXi group has and ESXi cluster B

    2. several server vCenter, with their own groups of ESXi.

    vCD-> A vCenter and vCenter B.  vCenter cluster Cluster A1 ESXi and ESXi A2 A-> vCenter B-> Cluster B1 ESXi and ESXi cluster B2.

    I hope that all the senses.  I'll be happy to extrapolate more.

    Hello

    Please find the answers

    1. multiple ESXi clusters under the vCenter even?

    vCD-> ESXi group has and ESXi cluster B

    Yes, VCD support certainly take the resources of multiple clusters. To be more specific model allocation is deciding factor we can extend on cluster or not.

    2. several server vCenter, with their own groups of ESXi.

    vCD-> A vCenter and vCenter B.  vCenter-> Cluster A1 ESXi and ESXi cluster A2.  vCenter B-> Cluster B1 ESXi and ESXi cluster B2.

    Yes, we can certainly have several VC related to VCD. To max, it supports 25 VC.

    I have setup a RAID 1 (2 discs) on my box of ESXi. Now I loaded ESXi and registered in with the vSphere client. In "The memory", is to show both of these drives. Should it only showing a?

    raid.png

    I thought that ESXi should see 'one' in the car for me to put on.and data warehouses, then the RAID controller would just reflect. But when I try to create a data store, it allows me to opt for the second time either of these discs on first, then the other drive. Is this job right? This doesn't seem to be just if I can just add warehouses of data on each disk individually.

    which means that you are not using the controller RAID HRDWARE and using your software RAID. in esxi software RAID is not supported
