Failure of the assertion of VMware Fusion Start Menu, 4 per second in the system log

• failure of the system, looking for answers

  Need help for the guys. Had a major failure of the system last week, and I'm a bit confused as to what happened and why I was unable to get free. I lost a bit of my confidence in Vsphere, and I'd like to renew that.

  A bit on the environment, esxi 5.0 U1, with servers HP Gen 8 3 node cluster running. HP P4500 SAN iscsi for vmfs data storage. ESXi is installed on HP's CF cards in servers. This cluster has been upward and running for about 6 months, not a single hiccup before that.

  Wednesday we have migrated 2 of our vm (SQL and progress) to this cluster 5.0 database, the virtual machine went on different hosts in the cluster. The virtual machine was running on a cluster 2 older nodes with esxi 4.1 U2. Machines migrated fine, fine tools updates, reboot, everything seemed fine.

  About 2 hours after that the migration, we started to receive calls that our Progress database is down, users could not connect. Then we started getting more calls, other machines were inaccessible. Glancing from vcenter I could see all the virtual machines in question were on the same host, and I was unable to open the console in vsphere for VMs on that host. The host showed he was connected, showed all the vm connected, but I could not open the console or the desktop remotely to one of the VMs on that host. I started studying, and of course this host fell all the SAN Iscsi network connections. The railways have shown dead. Ports of nic card viewed active, the switch ports showed activity, but the connections were down. I could always ping the address of management for the host however, and ports for vmotion were in place.

  At this point, I started to try and vmotion VMs on that host data base progress, he would not migrate, just sat at 8% prepare to migrate. I tried other virtual machines with the same result. I started to wonder why HA had not kicked, and why I couldn't move anything. At this stage the host started disconnecting from the cluster. I could always ping on the host, but vsphere showed as disconnected. I couldn't move my VM, and I couldn't go to the host via vcenter, via the vsphere client pointed directly to the host, or by using the DCUI.

  So I called VMware support, got an engineer on the line with me, and it became clear we were going to have to power cycle that host and crash all virtual machine running on it. It wasn't a very pleasant for me answer because this database of progress is our main production system, and I was afraid of corruption. We had no choice, so we did. When the host came back upward, fortunately the virtual machine came very well. VMware engineer digging in the newspapers and said that this was with a particular NIC card driver with known issues. He showed me the KB on this issue, and it seemed to be a known issue. We have updated these drivers on all hosts, and that's all.

  My problem with this is that, how is the cluster ran fine for 6 months without problem, and how come the redundant path to the SAN did not keep the connection active when with the path with the bad nic card driver failed? I have 2 different, with 2 NICs different paths for the Iscsi SAN. The other card had no known driver issue. Why both paths failed not just in cause of a driver on one of the cards problem? More worrying is also how is it that I could not immigrate anything, and why no HA kick in?

  Sorry for the novel here, but without all the details is not part of a story. My biggest concern, that's why I couldn't move anything? In the event of a host failure, what you're supposed to do in order to migrate the machines if they don't migrate via vsphere client? We were down for about 2.5 hours, and a lot of questions were thrown on me the senior management as to why my "system available, redundant high" took hours to retrieve...

  Guys here any ideas, thoughts on how I would have handled it differently, reasons why I should be confident everything is fine now?

  Thanks for your time

  Thanks Matt.

  I guess some of the problem is not completely understand how the HA or Vmotion. I was under the impression once that the virtual machine was not reachable HA wouldn't kick and move the virtual machine? The virtual machine was not to ping requests or accessible by the Office remotely. I couldn't get their power off or do anything through vcenter either.

  If they had no link usable storage, this seems possible.  HA simply does not address the failures of storage.  Not at all.  It IS possible to activate at the level of the VM HA, but it isn't on by default - must be activated on a per-VM basis.  You should read the book by Duncan Epping on this - it's the bible of the AH.

  So in case something happens with the connection of storage, you have really no way to vmotion anything right here, and your only option is to kill the host / VM running on it, and then migrate or leave HA move them?

  Fix.

  I didn't know that I wouldn't be able to vmotion virtual machine if the host has lost its connection to storage. The other hosts in the cluster saw storage.

  The source host is controlling these VMDK, as far as the other guests are concerned (they see a lock on the file) and when they ask the host if its still alive, he answers (because it has not powered the network lost or down, which are the failure mode THAT HA is designed to handle). So they take charge.

  The reason why it took so long was because I didn't kill the host with my concerns for the database. I was hoping that the VMware engineer may have a way to gracefully close things down. So he spent some time looking around and trying to determine what was going on. Ultimately we just power cycle the host, so I could have done much earlier, and if we are facing this again in the future, I would.

  As long as you follow the seller advised for more decent databases (keeping the transaction logs, etc.), don't have good backups, theres no real risk of data corruption.  VMware does not significantly change the i/o path, in order to have the same exposure than on a physical host.

  I still do not understand why the two paths were marked as dead and the host completely lost connection to the SAN, as well as to show finally disconnected in vcenter.

  Well the host went offline because it got stuck in an all-paths-down scenario, which is common for 5.0.  5.1 solves this problem a little.  I don't know why all roads fell, but I suspect that you have a misconfig somewhere... normally you expect at least 4 paths in a system set up correctly on the left.  Check with HP to ensure that you follow best practices.

  Maybe all the IP stack has been corrupted or something?

  Possible, of course, but unlikely.  Never heard before.

  I appreciate the help and the preview, I thought that the problem was a lack of understanding on my part and fully accept it.

  HA and vMotion are complex.  At least now you can go back to mgmt and tell them why he fell more (because it was a failure outside the scope of the software scenario) and may ask for money to build a proper SQL cluster.  Definitely recommend the book of Duncan Epping: http://www.amazon.com/VMware-vSphere-Clustering-Technical-Deepdive/dp/1463658133/ref=la_B002YJMRCY_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1363622697&sr=1-2

  If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

  Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

  When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

• Transaction is written to the log file and it is not written to undo tablespace. During a failure of the system how oracle rolls back the transaction.

  Hi all

  My question is:

  Transaction is written to the log file and it is not written to undo tablespace.

  During a failure of the system how oracle rolls back the transaction.

  I have already provided the answer, you ignored if well (you seem to only read the responses by people of your country).

  Redo log is always written * first * before * writing to the data block (redo log writing is much more aggressive). So it DOESN 'T MATTER if you lose these scriptures of rollback segment.

  Valuation: rear roller followed by roll forward, using redo log files and/or archive redo log files.

• Photoshop Elements and the unexpected failure of the system

  Hello!

  I would ask you to reactivate Photoshop Elements 8, after the unexpected failure of the system. For example: my Windows Vista has a Blue Screen of Death, and I have to format partition and reinstall my OS (my material remains unchanged).

  Then install the Photoshop Elements 8 (I bought in the local store), and I'll be able to reactivate my copy of PSE8?

  Thanks for the reply

  Best regards

  Jacek.

  PS.

  Sorry, my English is terrible

  If you have activated only once, then you should be able to reactivate a second time without any problem.

  If you have enabled the two copies, then you will need to contact customer service to obtain your activation reset.

  You can remove the double quotes of the values for 2 environment variables?

  Use them instead:
  JAVA_HOME = C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.6.0_21
  Path = C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.6.0_21\bin;%PATH%

  If that doesn't help, use a folder that contains without parentheses to your JDK.

• Access to a shared folder hard blocks VMWare Fusion (started happening recently)

  I have access to my Mac OS X desktop as a folder within my VM and have it run this way for years without problem. Sometimes in the past month, VMWare has started completely freeze/lock up when I try to open the desktop folder in Win7 or if I try to open a file from an application running in Windows. I get no error message, just a Beachball Of Death, and VMWare will eventually (or not) report that Windows crashed and offer to reboot. Sometimes I have to force quit (and kill several VMWare process) until I can restart.

  If I restart in Mode safe, I can open/read/write files very well. I can also 'mirror' of my office (instead of share) and it works very well in this way, too, but this approach is not practical as I have so more can see my normal within Windows desktop, as it is replaced by all the files from my Mac desktop,

  I couldn't find all the online articles that were useful for the resolution of this problem, and it's impacting on my ability to do my job.

  Again, this has been working fine until recently. As El Capitan has been recently updated and VWWare Fusion has been recently updated Windows gets patches every week, I'm not sure which, if any, of those that could have caused the problem.

  Suggestions welcome.

  Here is my configuration:

  MBP 15 retina, mid 2015 running OS X 10.11.5

  16 GB of RAM (8GB assigned to Windows)

  500 GB SSD 120 GB assigned to Windows

  Win7 Pro 64-bit

  VMWare 8.1.1 (3771013)

  I tried re('repair') VMware Tools installation, but do not uninstall first. Just did the full cycle of uninstall/install and it is always difficult pop-up Windows (no BSD, just freezes and VWware with it). Process of the merger of VMware and vmware-vmx to hang (as shown in activity monitor).

  This is * only * happening if I share my desktop Mac computer. If I share any file, it works fine. Yet once, it only started recently.

  UPDATE

  Playing a hunch, I removed an alias (which points to a file on a network drive) in my office that I created recently (I had other aliases on my desk for several months, but none of them did for the network drives), and it now seems to work very well. What's weird is that I initially put crime aliases in a subfolder Desktop and VMware has worked well until I drove my cursor arrow on the subfolder (do not click to open it), when it crashed again. I put the back on my desktop and the "boom" alias, crashed almost immediately, which seems to confirm that the alias is the problem.

  Windows does make a kind of prediction "read-ahead" as you move your cursor and hovering over the records?

  In any case, the trigger seems to be an alias that points to a network drive, that hard to block Windows / VMware.

  Bug?

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

• What is the failure of the system to defragment effect the failure to save?

  Well, I posted this question before, but I think I've ruled out the obvious questions.

  My laptop was backing on a schedule like a charm until May-June when something happened. The last good walk back was in may, and no matter how I put the back upward, custom/windows recommended, make an image etc. I constantly get the message "backup failed" and that the annoying red bar.

  I thought maybe it was the external hard drive, which windows recommends that you use as a backup. In fact, I used this external hard drive before and when my hard drive crashed, it was a God send when I had to reinstall the operating system and all of my personal software.

  Anyway, I always noticed that when I would defragment, which is on a schedule, he used to always say 100% defragmented. All of this, the C drive, the HP system recover and HP tools.

  HOWEVER, I noticed that the system will not defragment completely. It has 5% not degragmented. It took place around the same time that the loss of the ability to save.

  (I saved on DVD but I wish she could be like it was before, updated the back ups periodically according to a schedule).

  Thus, the system refers to the registry? I know the least about how to deal with this. I fall short, I don't know how to fix it. This may be the reason why now the backup that is in my book - not the software provided with the Passport, but microsoft backup hard drive - does not work?

  If so, how can we get the system adjusted? Or register if it is what it is.

  Thanks for everything very specific advice for someone who doesn't know much about the registry.

  I suggest avoid you the Windows backup program and you get a good commercial backup program. This forum meets for a windows problem reports. I know that I was very impressed when I tried it. Three I'm familiar with and like Norton Ghost (which I use for 8 years no 1 problem), Easeus Todo Backup free, you can download it from

  http://www.TODO-backup.com/products/home/free-backup-software.htm and Memeo , which has 30 day free trial and you can buy it for $29.99 - you can download it from http://memeo.com . You can get Ghost for almost nothing (like me), if you look at the sales.

  The March 2012 issue of PC World is very high on Easeus FREE program, and I was recently tested in a variety of configurations and must say that I am very impressed. As Ghost will support up to a network drive and it will create a bootable CD for when your PC does not start. See commentary to PC World to

  CNET has a lot of reviews of backup program to

  Some of them are free (the last time I checked there over 300), some have free trials (more), and some are buying only (more than 200).

  External hard drives are the best for backup. You can get a 500 GB one for $70 and a 1.5 to one for about $90. You can also buy a flash drive 16 GB for as little as $10. It is the best insurance you can buy ever!

• Failure of the system for Windows 8 image backup

  I downloaded Windows 8 a few days ago. I tried to create a system image to an external drive, Western Digital 500 GB (409 GB free) four times and each time after a few minutes a message said that the backup failed. The backup of the recovery Partition seems end OK every time. The failures occurred after a minute or two in the backup of the C: drive of the OS.

  The external hard drive checked OK. The player has already had an image of the system for Windows 7 which was removed before the backup attempt. Here are 2 messages I received as the backup failed. The other 2 were much the same, I think.

  "There was a failure in the preparation of the backup image of any of the volumes in the backup set. (0X807800C).
  The mounted backup volume is inaccessible. Try the operation again. (0X8078004F)."

  "There was a failure in the preparation of the backup image of any of the volumes in the backup set. (0X807800C).
  The specified drive is not found. (0 X 80780081)"

  Below are the 2 files on the external hard drive after the failure. I guess that the first was the complete recovery Partition backup. I don't know much about this sort of thing.
