• vSphere high availability with no shared storage? And general problems with VMware partner supplier

  
  HA can function without shared storage?

  It may not by the availability of vSphere manual.  However the global VMware partner who sold me on VMware solution said that the shared storage is not required for HA.

  This is the same guy who told me that I would not need to buy Windows Server licenses because everything was included in the package (vSphere Essentials Plus).  Now, I have no Windows license, no shared storage and a customer who will not be happy that we did not include these costs in the citation for this project.

  No.... you need a storage shared for HA.

  Maybe your partner speak the vCenter Server Appliance that is included on vSphere Essentials Plus and you can use this device to manage your vSphere, ESXi without need a VM of Windows (with Windows license) to install the vCenter server.

• Shared storage problem

  I did a few tests using Virtual PC on my PC and I was able to lay 2 ESXi gets and a shared stoarage a FreeNas or a virtual NAS Nas4Free-based.

  I was able to use iSCSI or NFS data warehouses.

  Now I have the possibility to use a HP ML350 host with a lot of RAM running ESXi 5.5 U2 free version.

  I can easily create my invited ESXi virtual desktops, but I can't make them use a shared, nor based on iSCSI or NFS storage.

  I tried to use 2 vSwitches but (virtual) invited ESXi cannot access NFS shared storage or iSCSI.

  My NAS (virtual) seeks to work end e I can access either iSCSI and NFS shares from a Windows virtual machine.

  Is there a directive to set up virtual hosts ESXi and/or the vSwitch for shared storage?

  I would use a dedicated vSwitch not connected to a physical NETWORK adapter to avoid iSCSI or NFS traffic in my main LAN.

  Should I?

  Concerning

  Marius

  The vSwitches to which the ESXi invited are attached must allow the promiscuous mode and forged passes.  See http://www.virtuallyghetto.com/2013/11/why-is-promiscuous-mode-forged.html.

• VMotion for one HA cluster to another - no shared storage

  I was trying to vmotion that two hosts and clusters of data from a virtual computer store between HA (no shared storage). The web client gives me this warning and I'm curious to know what he is talking about:

  **

  If this is done, the virtual machine will lose vSphere HA protection. If you proceed with this operation and it completes successfully, vSphere HA not will try to restart the virtual machine after a subsequent failure. vSphere HA protection is restored when network partitions or disk accessibility problems are solved...

  **

  HA is working in two groups, in terms of network and the heartbeat data store. So what exactly this message tells me thank you!

  I get the same warning when turf migrate a virtual machine between two clusters and I select the source host unreachable destination data store. If I select a store different data that is shared by the two poles of competitiveness, no warning appears.

  This warning is probably up for the vMotion suppose it will stay within the same cluster and check if the source host and destination can access the same data store. As the store of data (and config agent HA) is not shared between your source and destination hosts residing in different groups, it seems that the vMotion compatibility check guess it's a store of local data or something like that.

  However, once migrated to the new cluster, FDM HA agents should choose the new VM place very well and protect it according to your settings in cluster HA, so nothing to worry about here.

• Hello. I so want to know if there is a way to keep the photos on icloud and get them deleted on your iphone, so that there is no problem of storage of the device

  Hello. I so want to know if there is a way to keep the photos on icloud and get them deleted on your iphone, so that there is no problem of storage of the device.

  iCloud is a synchronization system, not an external 'hard drive '. If you remove them on your device, they will remove icloud. To increase the available space, go settings/iCloud/Photos and select optimize iPhone/iPad storage. That will reduce the space required by 90% when it is fully effective.

  Hello

  Thank you! All the best. Be careful in choosing to shared storage.

  # If your shared file system accessible via CIFS, SMB or Samba, you may search and/or performance indexing and corruption problems when you use the Verity search engine (not supported in 11g).

  # If your file system shared accessible via CIFS, SMB or Samba, you should disable opportunistic locking (oplocks - data client-side caching) of the file system as it might interfere with the normal operations of Content Server. With solutions for storage network (SIN), the performance of the file system may be closely related to oplocking (data caching client-side), which disables the opportunistic locking can cause performance problems. Please plan your architecture accordingly.

  Please feel free to correct if you get your answer to other purposes.

• VMware Vsphere HA (problem of storage in common) and problem of band network bandwidth

  Hi all

  I am setting up VMware VSphere HA on ESXI 6.0

  I have 5 hosts running, each host has 2 management networks main network 1 vMotion and 1 network card for balancing with the management network. (each NIC 1Gbit uplink)

  I also attached to each card a FC (Fiber Channel) connected to HP 3PAR storage.

  each host have 1 TB or 2 TB Fiber Channel-attached storage.

  When I was setting up the AP he stated that he did not have any shared how storage can I allow other hosts to see each store data as a shared storage. NB: when I go vsphere client to web I see all the storage of each host.

  I also want to allow FT on a virtual machine, I have also a problem of bandwidth insuffisent or something. .

  also, I enabled fault tolerance on each NIC attached to the host.

  also another question: should I export volumes (LUNS) to all hosts in the AP? (in fact I exported each volume to each host separately) for example:

  Volume 1: HP3PAR_ESX1 exported to HOST ESX1

  Volume 2: HP3PAR_ESX2 exported to the ESX2 HOST

  Volume 3: HP3PAR_ESX3 exported to ESX3 HOST

  .. .etc

  can you me clear on this issue or guide me to where I can solve these problems please.

  When I try to activate the FT on the VM I the following warning attached

  This message was edited by: coolirc attached image FT problem

  There are memory FT requirements compatible VM is through two virtual, primary and secondary computers. so it will consume the same amount of resources of both ESXi hosts.

  VM with 10 GB of RAM allocation, turn on FT booking VM is now 10 GB RAM, so 10 GB + VMkernel consumption General host running primary VM and same amount of the host that is running with secondary VM. on top of this admission control in support of the failures of host we are going to tolerate so say primary VM host fails, then secondary VM becomes the new primary and triggers a new high school to be created and powered in one of the other host survivor in your HA cluster but which will be successful only when you have sufficient resources available to satisfy a reservation.

  your source host has 16 GB of RAM and one of the destination host also got 16 GB of RAM, so if you try to activate pi after disabling admission control on your cluster policy, I think that it should allow you to activate FT without errors. [if it still does not work so if possible, turn off all other virtual machines for free resources or to try to reduce their reservation manually if they are running with a reservation and try again.]

  with admission control, the necessary resources would be even higher.

  screenshot of Cluster summary reports that you have 4 guests in it and the memory resources available about 30 GB to 60 GB total memory. But isn't always the right figure, if you go to the monitor-> book resources, is where you will find actual "ready reserve", it's the right amount of reserve memory that you will be able to use across several virtual machines, you run in your cluster.

  I tried 2 vCPU vm FT in vSphere 6, works very well, but never tried with Hardware version 8, in your case, your virtual machine is hardware version 8, although I'm not sure if it is mandatory to have the hardware version 11 VM for FT so ideally it should work, but virtual hardware version if possible vm upgraded to 11.

• Using the odd drive with shared storage

  We have deployed a 15-node cluster with shared storage.  When we issue a df - h, we see the root filesystem and / mnt mounted file systems.

  We also see the file of each of the other systems the datanodes on the local storage of the each other.  For example...

  / mnt/SCSI-123abc is mounted on the server server01

  / mnt/SCSI-456def is mounted on server02

  Under/mnt on the server server01, we also see/mnt/scsi-456def under the root file system, not mounted as its own file system.

  Under/mnt on server02, we also see/mnt/scsi-123abc under the root file system, not mounted as its own file system.

  Is this a problem of storage configuration, or is this something that the BDE has decided when it deployed?

  Thank you

  Steve

  BTW, you can add your script hack or the scripts that I have provided in the /opt/serengeti/sbin/format-disk.py file in the node template, and then after that the empty cluster is created, the mount point/mnt/bigdata1... are there the/mnt/bigdataN.

• Move the virtual machine from one host to another with shared storage

  Hello

  I have a question on how to move a virtual machine from one ESX 4 host to a host ESXi 5.  These hosts have access to the same shared storage but the ESX 4 host is outside the network and host ESXi 5 is inside the network so vMotion is not an option.  They are in different groups.  I know that there must be an easy way to move this virtual machine, but for the life of me, I can't find it.  I guess I have remove the virtual machine from the external cluster but how to make the virtual machine in the internal cluster?

  Thanks in advance...

  If both host access to the data store even where VM's store, just stop the virtual machine, remove inventory on ESXi 4, go to ESXi 5 vSphere vSphere, browse the data store where the VM is stored, do a right-click on the .vmx file and add to the inventory.

• Dell VRTX + vCenter 5.5 + Shared storage is ESXi host import issue in vCenter. Help, please!

  All,

  I have two VRTX to be used for lab purposes that I am currently in configuration.

  Blades feature 4 VRTX with a shared storage infrastructure. Each blade has 5.5 installed on ESXi.

  I configured the shared on the VRTX storage, and all the blades can go very well.

  The question I'm currently facing is when you add the vCenter for managing ESXi hosts.

  Add the first host goes without a hitch. However, add any later host fail, because vCenter finds datastore attached hosts to have the same identifier.

  The error message is (see the attached screenshot): ' Datastore 'Main Shared-storage' is in conflict with a store of data that exists in the data center which has the same URL (ds: / / vmfs/volumes/xxxxx /), but is supported by different physical storage.

  Someone knows how to fix this?

  Thank you.

  Thanks for the reply.

  I think that I have found a workaround.

  First of all, this link does not address my particular issue.

  See, it's a whole new vCenter device installation and configuration. Only one of the four hosts to add host has been added.

  Still, the problem is that each ESXi host is a blade VRTX (M620), which has access to the data store created on the shared storage of VRTX.

  Basically, each host is editing the data store shared even (the only data store created on the shared storage), which works very well except for vCenter complain when you import the hosts.

  In any case, my resolution was as follows:

  -Add the first host with the attached and mounted data store

  -Remove the data store and detach the controller shared by other guests before adding in vCenter

  -Re-attach the controller shared and set up the data store via vCenter once guests have been added

  -Re-configure each host for vSphere HA if necessary

  Thank you.

• Upgrade and migration of 3.5.0upd0 to 4.0upd1 and shared storage iSCSI

  Hi people,

  I've got 2 ESX host: Alpha and beta. Two of them are connected to a cabin of iSCSI with some created shared storage drive (all VMFS3 v3.31). And both had ESX 3.5.0 update0

  I migrated all the VMS running in the Alpha host for shared storage and made host Beta to run (clones cold or simply reassign files). Then I bâtait Alpha from scratch and I installed vSphere 4.0 in it. I also created in its local storage space bit a new virtual machine with vCenter4 inside. It has worked well.

  Then I had to migrate Beta and its virtual machines, too. I first tried to manage the host with vCenter4, but it is not backward compatible.

  So I'll use the host update utility to upgrade beta I saw in a video tutorial, but my doubts are...

  • Option 1:

  Disable all virtual machines managed in host Beta.

  Configure the iSCSI client in Alpha, add storage shared cabin and try to manage the virtual machines already extinct. This reduces the time to downgrade.

  Upgrade Vmware Tools in the virtual machines (v4 to v7 type VM). Required reboots.

  Upgrade host Beta (with no SMV in there and unplug the cable of iSCSI) vSphere4.

  Connect and configure the iSCSI version beta customer.

  Manage the host with the new vCenter4 Beta.

  Configure the vMotion, DRS etc. in both hosts.

  • Option 2:

  Disable all virtual machines managed in host Beta.

  Upgrade host Beta (with no SMV in there and unplug the cable of iSCSI) vSphere4. Downgrade time increases.

  Connect and configure the iSCSI version beta customer.

  Upgrade Vmware Tools in the virtual machines (v4 to v7 type VM). Required reboots.

  Manage the host with the new vCenter4 Beta.

  Configure the vMotion, DRS etc. in both hosts.

  Which option is the best? Maybe is it possible to apply a third? What do you think?

  Thanks in advance.

  without loss of performance?

  Yes. VM with v4 works very well.

  The only problem is that you lose some new features, like the new drivers and FT.

  Note also that Standalone VMware Converter 4.x can also convert between v4 and v7 and vice versa.

• problem with storage space - iPhone 4 - 32 GB

  Hello, I have an iphone 4 32 gb. I'm having a problem with storage space. A few days ago, that even though I was taking 5 GB of empty space, a notification appeared that storage is almost full. I deleted about 2 GB of photos and videos. He showed me 2 GB of free space, but after 1 hour again the same notification appeared. As soon as I have emptied my space with about 1 to 2 GB by deleting photos or videos, it is completed with other data.

  How should I solve this problem?

  Thank you.

  What is the exact wording of the message? Could he be referring to iCloud storage?

  Also have you withdrawn your recently delete pictures and videos? Deleted ones is 'saved' for 30 days or more unless you intentionally delete/remove

  Why my iOS device I have more pictures that I can find?

  How do I take a VISTA system which has a drive with a C and D partition and combne in C only a partition with the storage of which was C and D?

  Hello

  Make sure that D: is not the partition recovery including the manufacturer put there to make the recovery disks from and eventually to return your computer to how you bought

  You cannot combine C: and D: and their data using the Vista Disk Manager

  with Vista, you will need to save the data on D: - D: delete - and then extend C: into the now unallocated space where D: was to do a 1 partition 2
