Fault of DNS round robin to 2 connection view servers
Help! We have recently improved view to 4.6 and have now 2 view connection servers (viewconnect2.wheatonma.edu and viewconnect3.wheatonma.edu) set up with DNS round robin. We have customers to enter the name "viewconnect.wheatonma.edu" and there are 2 records to change the name in DNS to what he (to the IP address of viewconnect2, the other to the IP address of viewconnect3). We found only intermittently when a View Client tries to connect they will get the following error
"View server connection authentication failed. Initialization failed when connecting to the server ""https://viewconnect.wheatonma.edu:443' " "
Because now we have just removed one of the mentions A name so viewconnect.wheatonma.edu just points to the IP address of viewconnect3.wheatonma.edu and everything seems to work well.
I have the SSL from GeoTrust certificate issued for viewconnect.wheatonma.edu correctly installed on both servers, so I don't think that is the question.
In View manager when I check the settings for each server under "Display Configuration"-> "Servers" here is what I got when I edit entry of each server.
Viewconnect2 settings
No Tags set
Secure tunnel HTTP (S)
External URL: https://viewconnect.wheatonma.edu:443

Am I missing something? Is DNS round robin is not supported for the connection view servers? The firewall is disabled on the connection view servers
Thank you
The problem is that your "External URL" settings are wrong.
These must represent URLS that get directly on the specific login server and cannot be load-balanced or go through a round robin DNS entry.
Set the external URL:
Viewconnect2 https://Viewconnect2:443 or https://155.47.24.11:443
Viewconnect3 https://Viewconnect3:443 or https://155.47.24.12:443
This way your connection secure tunnel will go to the same server connection as was chosen by repeating alternating DNS or load balancing.
Your users always enter https://Viewconnect:443 the view of customers.
There is an example here http://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-14974
Select this option.

Several 5.2 connection view servers
I'll implement the servers view new 5.2, with 5.1 when I place servers connection that they presented automatically for each other so when I went to the connection servers under the display configuration tab, I could see two connection servers. However in my new environment 5.2 after that I installed the second server connection has not started communicating with the first connection to the server. If at this stage, they are two completely separate connection servers. I wonder if I did something wrong or if 5.2 is just different from 5.1.
I found the problem, apparently, when I want to add an additional login server to point 5.2 that I need to add it as a replica server and not a connection to the server.

change the path of the fixed path selection strategy to round robin
two questions
1. is it safe to change the strategy of selection of the fixed path to round robin with the servers in the data store (round robin done work in our environment)
2 can "lost access to the volume" messages be caused by too many servers using the same path of data warehouses. Many of the servers here use a couple of paths on a fixed track, instead of all four paths on round robin. I was wondering if the lost volume messages access were caused due to heavy traffic causing data 'pulse' written in the expiration time.

You can, but first make sure that your table provider supports this configuration.

Hi all
I have several things to add here:
* I have filed a bug for the initial post - error message is dark - the message in this case (referring non-existent namespace) should be "there are no namespace with the same name.
On the the problem with the 'boot' setting - you run the command when you are connected to the vCenter Server? If so - try to run the same command directly against the ESX host. I look a little more on this subject...

MSA 2000 fc vSphere and round robin
I have a number of CF 2212 G1 MSA and MSA fc storage arrays 2312 G2 connected to 4 guests, I plan to upgrade to vsphere 4.0 ESXi 3.5. They have all two controllers and are run as active/active using fixed path. Licenses have been improved under the support agreement and will be the company licenses (as opposed to companies more)
Can I use round robin on vsphere 4 with this configuration to provide the best balance between the 2 fabrics of SAN? Does anyone else has used alternate with this type of storage? I am a little concerned do this with the MSA212fc G1 because they do not have true active/active.
Hello
The VMware Compatibility Guide indicates the path policy should be set except HP make you otherwise it would not be supported.

"No DNS server," "PPPOE server," "Internet connection" - WARNING amber
I'm troubleshooting on iMac my parents - there is a problem with the configuration of the Airport Extreme. The iMac is fully updated.
During the configuration of the airport, I get this chart:
Under 'Of Carol Airport,' I can't seen to change the State of the servers DNS, server PPOE and Internet connection. The iMac works fine without the airport connected... but when you're connected, I get these errors.
How solve the three errors and get the router working again? Please provide very detailed responses, if possible. Thank you!!
The problem lies in the device upstream 'Carol airport'.
Reset by it turn it off and leave it like that for a few moments. Internet service providers often suggest disconnect their cable from their device as well (not the Ethernet cable between it and the AirPort Base Station - please leave one connected). There should be no need of power towards the low 'of Carol Airport', but there is no harm in doing so, either.
Then, connect it to power again, and reconnect the cable if you disconnected it. Give it a moment to start to finish. Connect the "Carol airport', if you we turned off.
Please proceed to configure the AirPort base station by following the instructions.

Buenas,
queria formular una pregunta relacionada con the caminos Round Robin balanceo politica. Por el defecto e/s operation limit of esta politica in vsphere 5 are of 1000 comandos E/S.
Hay several recommandations al respecto, sobretodo TR el trafico cabina dado por alguna VM than genere viene muchas helps in las una config del IO operation limits con bajos values (1 to 3 E / S in los detrimento 1000 comandos E/S por defecto), pueden ser mejores.
Hay of autores that defienden esa causa having into account back handicaps, como el mayor consumo procesador nuestro ESXi host para manage el traspaso los comandos por los cada tan poco tiempo o paths well cabinas that can use hidden a nivel puerto y hacerlas volver a poco Louis (hidden lately aunque a nivel puerto aren't often find in las nuevas cabinas).
In Relación a esto, ¿habeis hecho algun cambio in los para operation IO Round Robin, monitor objetivamente showing of flow limitation?
Por otra parte, con Round Robin, in case of caida UN camino (is corta el cable, oh), if el camino vuelve life, Robin volvera a utilizarlo para enviar comandos o ¿Round is el aislara?
Saludos thanks
Hola compañero,
answering intento a tus dudas.
None are to change el PSP obligado a Round Robin. ES mas hacerlo sin a good reason can give problems.
VMware is select los protocolos multipathing than van a funcionar in 99.99% of cases, para 'tocarlo' hay than estar seguro what y porque is hace.
If to select el operation IO limit a 1 en PSP el, usually to experimenta UN Mayor flow acceso a esa LUN in concreto of the cabina.
Desde mi experiencia, is can pasar a Round Robin con el limited IO operation has 1, siempre as manufacturer of the cabina datos el asi lo explains in its document of best practices.
Por ultimo, if to cae UN camino, y to vuelve a recover pasado a tiempo, el alternating vuelve a usar el camino con normal. No todos los types for PSP is compartan asi (consulta P.D2 mi)
Espero ayuda sido acercado
Kind regards

Why you should not use NMP/round robin MPIO with MSCS in ESXi <; 5.5?
There, could someone explain to me why MSCS do not work well with turnstile NMP on ESXi < v5.5? Best explanation I've seen is that each path is "seen" differently by the guest operating system continuously, send commands to reset and SCSI reservation everything slow. No doubt this could complicate situations requiring a turnaround as well...
Looking for a good explanation - which would also help me to understand how it "works" in ESXi 5.5 + now.
According to Cormac Hogan:
In the past, political path of round robin might not supported on MSCS shared storage. It was because of the inability to release SCSI reservations on some routes when the reserve has been placed on a different path on the same disk. With the release of vSphere 5.5, this problem has now been addressed and we support RR on storage that is consumed by the MSCS nodes.

Change the path to the Round Robin of the newest storage used
Dear Experts,
For one of our guests (on two hosts total), which is presented with two data warehouses:
-Storage 1 (works with RoundRobin vmware)
-Storage 2 (works with most recent used vmware)
I need to know if I can change it so that things work and there are two VM in this data store 'storage 2'.
All the foregoing gave two data warehouses are working with (Round Robin vmware) with host 2nd in our environment

PowerCLI, Multipathing change: fixed RDM and VMFS of Round Robin
With the new improvements in vSphere native mulit pathing (NMP) in 5.1, I tried to change my LUN to use repetition alternated according to EMC with my flare VNX practices code.
However, I also have MSCS clusters that don't support a fixed mode according to the http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1037959.
Later, I want to get all my VMFS volumes and set them to Round Robin and let all of my RDMs set to fixed.
I'm hoping to dynamically so that I can leave it with the admin here to run whenever he wants, but I'm fighting to achieve.
What I've tried so far.
I can get all my LUNS with these commands.
$esxcli
= Get
-EsxCli
$Allmyluns = Get - esxcli.storage.nmp.device.list () | Where {$_ .device - like 'naa.*'}
I can get all my RDM with this command
$RDMS = get - vm | Get-hard drive | where {$_.} SCSIcanonicalname - like 'naa.* ' | Select SCSIcanonicalname
I can put the method once I have the storage in this way
$esxcli
= Get
-EsxCli
Foreach ($lun in $allmyluns({
$esxcli.nmp.device.setpolicy($null, $_.Name,
"VMW_PSP_RR")
}
I have also thought about writing a csv or text file with the first command and trying to remove the entries with the second command but that is a bit past me, and I may be trying to over-complicate things unnecessarily
.
But what I can’t do is work out how to get a list whenever I want that has all the VMFS LUNS but not any of the RDM LUNS. So I can dynamically feed this into a script which updates VMFS pathing to Round Robin.
Any help, input or ideas would be greatly appreciated
This should help you all VMFS LUNS.
Get-Datastore | where {$_.Type -eq "VMFS"} | %{ $_.ExtensionData.Info.Vmfs.Extent | %{ $_.DiskName }}

Hello people,
I'm a bit confused. I have my now see that they are defined as VMW_SATP_ALUA_CX and storage (EMC CX) defined on the failover mode 4, host rebooted. I think that now, I can go in each data store and change the path of 'Round Robin (VMware)' selection. I do a lot of MSCS and noticed that the Round Robin is not supported with SAM. I found the underside of VMware. He says Round Robin PSP is not supported for the LUNS mapped by RDM, but then there is a "note" that says with NMP, clustering is not supported when the value of the Round Robin. It's my confusion is not the note by repeating exactly what he says just on top of it, or I'm not getting something? Also, I'm running 5.0, are there other changes that I have to do to make this work?
Strategy selection of the path (PSP)
Round Robin PSP is not supported for the LUNS mapped by RDM used with shared cluster storage. If you decide to use PSP Round Robin with your storage array, or if the version of vSphere to uses the default values for PSP Round Robin for the table in use, you can change the PSP claiming the RDM LUN above other PSP. For more information, see editing a unit number logic to use another path selection policy (PSP) (1036189).
Note: with native multipathing (NMP), clustering not is not supported when the strategy of path is set to Round Robin. For more information, see vSphere MSCS Setup Limitations in the configuration for Failover Clustering and Microsoft Cluster Service Guide for ESXi/ESX 4.x or 5.x ESXi.
Any help would be great. This confuses me
-MN
For data warehouses, use RR and ALUA (4 failover mode) mode.
For members of the MSCS (RDM) cluster, you will need to use fixed.

Hello
Can I know what is alternate., it's a way of storage? Can someone please develop on that? or any link that explains things around that?
Thank you
Prashant
Round Robin is a strategy of creating paths to storage, it is fixed, more recently used and round robin.
Basically, if you have active/active paths in your data store you can use RR this alternate paths so that the load is balanced on between two active paths, where fixed and MRU used only one path unless there is a power failure.
Not all storage arrays are supported RR... Here's a quick link

Can definition of Round Robin way strategy - I just use the GUI?
I have HP EVA6400 arrays and also HP XP20000.
I use ESX 4.1 U1 and the recommendation of HP is using Multipathing Round Robin policy.
I guess I could just use the vSphere client and select configuration > storage > datastore > properties > manage paths > Round Robin > change
This approach would have certainly changed politics of this server for the selected LUN path, then repeat for each.But I read something on a blog lastnight that said having to perform the setting of the path of the CLI to set VMW_PSP_RR nmp esxcli.
Can someone enlighten me please.
Thank youYou can use the command-line like esxcli well:
