For the installation of new network configuration

I have a few new pieces of equipment to start of my virtual machine configuration. However, I'm not entirely sure of what would be the most effective way to implement the side network and side EQL, then I would like some feed back.

The kit:

  • 1 x Cisco 2960 24 port (management / VMotion)

  • 2 x Power Connect 5424 24 port (net SAN)

  • 1 x EQ6000xv 300 GB * 16 discs for 4.8 TB Raw (SAN with 4 ports/controller)

  • 1 x R610 (broadcom 4) (vCenter server)

  • 2 x R710 (broadcom 4 Nic TOE + port 1000PT Intel 2 additional on each server for natachasery/Server 6 total) (ESX / I have knots)

Network:

Currently I have a certain VLAN ongoing enforcement, and because of some complications, looks like I won't get a subnet that is dedicated to the SAN (still pending).

Virtual machines will never access 5VLANs (including the Management VLAN I have a virtualized network monitoring app too).

I saw a white paper about it there but I can't find it now.

SAN:

Regarding the EQL, I think of the following:

  1. 1RAID 0 (I know it's plenty of space to go, but it would be better? Dell saw recommend 50)

  2. 1 flight approximately 500 GB to store all the OS vmdk (a number will be unique discs because they do not really data and many have less than 1 GB)

  3. 1 flight, size 1 TB for mapping directly to a VM file server using the MS iSCSI initiators

  4. For the rest, I could leave it as what and the provision necessary.

  5. I also intend to provision thin all the VMDK and also the volume so

What needs to be run once to the top:

  • Two announcements (Win2K3), which will also be the file server.

  • 3 guests in low use of WinXP

  • 2 WinXP with DBs (each running on offices of single disk with P4 CPU of 2 G)

  • 1 WinXP host already on a DL380G3 with ESXi... this one is probably of the same caliber as the previous ones

What is to come:

  • Installing SharePoint Services possible (more than 2 Win 2K 3 or guests with a SQL running Win2k8)

  • ISA Server

I would greatly appreciate any comments.

You are welcome.

If you find useful information, consider giving points to 'correct' or 'useful '.

  • VLAN again added, problems detected on guests during the detection of new network configuration

    Hi all

    I started facing a strange problem trying to use a new VLAN configured in my vCenter environment...

    Basically, my system 'fight' to identify the new network label (VLAN) configured, leaving systems disconnected from the local network.

    This condition disappears only when I change the VM touched, assign a label of different network (VLAN), apply the changes and restart the process by configuring the new VLAN return.

    We will use an example to explain better:

    • I have a named Windows Server/Workstation VM: VM1
    • I have 2 VLANS configured in vCenter: VLAN50 and VLAN70

    VM1 is sitting on the VLAN50 and has the static IP address configured.

    I start the migration of the machine to a VLAN different, by editing the network settings of the operating system (IP, MASK, GW, DNS entries...) and replace the label of VM1 VLAN70 network.

    At this point, the machine NIC shows as if it could not connect to what in the network, although it is configured accordingly in order to communicate in the new subnet.

    I have change the VM again and change the label of a network VLAN different from VLAN70, click OK. Immediately, I change VM settings to assign in return the VLAN70.

    After that, the operating system recognizes the network successfully and starts working as expected...

    All of my virtual machines use VMXNET3 adapter and my version of vCenter is v5.5 build #2646482

    No idea what might happen?

    Concerning

    We found the problem...

    It was not associated with VMware, but a network configuration problem: (ESXi connected to two switches, one of them with the VLAN configured correctly and the other does not...).

    Thanks for the help

  • conflicts for the installation of two labview applications

    Hello

    I have two applications LabVIEW 8.6 and can make the executable, then the installation for each of these files in the Project Explorer.

    After that I installed the FIRST application and when I want to install a SECOND, during the installation process, it indicates a newer version is currently installed even though I select a different installation path. The button "Next" is disabled, as shown in the attached screenshot.

    On the other hand, if I install the SECOND application first and then install the FIRST application, even if the installation paths are different, it installs the first application successfully but removes the second request.

    I don't know how to install both applications, one after another, regardless of the order. I appreciate any help or comment.

    See you soon,.

    Make sure that both versions have a different code level.

    (Builder installer... Version information... Code upgrade. Simply press "generate" to create a new one for the installation program that is not working)

    See also this help page

    (If both have the same upgrade code, windows thinks that they are the same program and keeps only the higher version)

  • Win 7 does not recognize the file type for the installation of the theme.

    Original title: download and install desktop theme

    I would like to install the panoramic snow theme but shows like PanoramicSnow.deskthemepack file extension. Win7 does not recognize the file type for the installation due to the addition of the "office" in the extension.  would it be possible to have that corrected please?  Thank you!

    Hello PMacCk,

     
    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum.
     
    Basically, the .deskthemepack extension is not recognized by Windows 7 because it is introduced in Windows 8. The new "panoramic" desktop themes all use this format.
     
    For reference, please see:
     
     
    There are still regularly .themepack themes available and those who continue to work in Windows 7 and Windows 8. Please visit the following link to download and install the themes:

  • While turning on the laptop its gives me a message "your pc will restart in two days for the installation of updates.

    About a week ago I just bought windows mobile 8 is installed. Now for the last two days while turning on the laptop its gives me a message "your pc will restart in two days for the installation of updates.

    To stop, I get three option 1) sleep 2) arrested update 3) and close

    What should I do?

    Original title: windows update issue 8.

    Hi Parichay,

    The updates that are being invited to install are automatic updates.

    The message you get is offered by Windows 8 after that updates are downloaded and installed.

    If you do not restart your computer soon, Windows will force a restart of your computer two days after that it has installed new updates to complete their installation.

    You must restart your computer at a convenient time for you, rather than wait two days and have it suddenly reboot maybe at an inopportune time.

    Hope that solves your problem.

  • Difference between NAT vs vs Bridged, Host-only for the setting of my network card?

    When you use VMWare Fusion, what is the difference between NAT vs bridged vs Host-only for the setting of my network card?

    (Sort of related), if I use a VPN client on my guest will be Windows OS (as opposed to a my Mac OS host), who somehow reduce/limit the 'hooks' my company has also in my host operating system?  If so, I'm guessing that it then also prevents the limits / me being able to interact with my business from my host operating system environment?

    Thank you very much.

    KB link doesn't seem to work right now, so here's a basic response:

    NAT - Windows receives an IP address of one of the background merging services

    Bridge - Windows Gets an IP address from the same place as your Mac does

    Host just - isolated virtual machine of the world except the Mac.  (useful in development and testing of the configurations)

    NAT - Windows puts on a different subnet from the Mac, so the virtual machine cannot speak for the same things the Mac can talk with on a Mac network.  It puts kind of router between the Mac and virtual machine

    'Sex' bridge - essentially the same as the Mac, so you can access network shares, etc.  Good for enterprise environments where the virtual machine needs to talk to a network resource shared (AD, SMB shares, printers, etc.)

    Host only - yet once, isolate the virtual machine of all but the Mac, so no Internet, no Intranet, but he can talk to the Mac itself.

    Hope that explains things =)

  • Can satellite L300-1BV - I ask Toshiba for the installation CD?

    Hello

    How could I go ask Toshiba for the installation CD? My laptop (L300-1BV) came with the pre-installed operating system, so I can ask them for the CD?
    But I don't know how I'd go to this topic.

    Any advice?

    Hello

    I think you mean the Toshiba recovery disc. Is this correct?

    If yes you can create yourself Toshiba recovery disc. So start the Toshiba recovery disc creator to create this diskette.
    This disc you create operating system preinstalled with all the drivers and tools of Toshiba. It s also called settings factory or let's say the same thing that you started the laptop time first.

    Normally, you get a recovery reminder message and I think that this information could be useful for you:
    + Important INFORMATION +.

    + your system is equipped with a hard drive recovery system. If you need repair.
    + your computer in the restaurant to original factory State, you can do it directly.
    + HDD (press F8 when you start your computer, choose "Repair your computer" +)
    + and follow the instructions in the menu) or create a media drive bootable recovery to that end. +.

    + Toshiba recommends you create recovery disk medium uses the "Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator' to ensure the +.

  • Thank you for the installation of genuine hp ink cartridges

    I just replaced 3 ink cartridges and I get this message to come several times per minute

    "Thanks for the installation of genuine hp ink cartridges."

    The two buttons that can be selected are "View rewards" or "no thanks."

    I tried pressing each button, but the message continues

    Hi AlD23 and thanks for getting back to me!

    Thank you for the info, I have a few steps, I recommend you:

    First, remove the printer ink cartridges and reset the power supply.  Unplug the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug back in the printer. Make sure that you connect the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any surge protector or power bar.

    I would recommend then update the printers firmware:

    Get updates of the printer for HP Officejet Pro 8600

    Please hold me!
