Frames extended on linux hosts

We frames configuration throughout all our network settings and have it work.  The interesting thing and my question of why:

On linux hosts (all that I tested) and same vmxnet3 if the MTU is set to 1500, s 9000 host ping works fine.

Is this normal?  There is no need of ifconfig eth? mtu 9000 on the hosts as in the physical world?

Packets are probably be fragmented.

Try a "ping s 9000 - M x.x.x.x" to not address the no fragment bit.  Also, try the ping command with a packet size of 10000, if those who work very well, the packets are fragmented.

I hope this helps!

  • HOW TO GET THE LOGIC OF A LINUX HOST DISKS, TO CREATE RULE

    I need to create a rule to monitor some logic to a linux host, not all discs.

    Thank you!!!

    You can use a scope query something like this:

    LogicalDisk where name = '/ etc '.

    or

    LogicalDisk name in {' / ', '/ etc', "foglight"}

    or

    LogicalDisk where name match '. * tc.*'

    or

    LogicalDisk where name like '% tc % '.

    You can extend this to only certain hosts with something like this:

    LogicalDisk where name = '/ etc' and monitoredHost.name = 'abcdef1234.domain.com. '

  • Personal project: convert with VM Linux host to vSphere Hypervisor

    Hello

    I have been using VMware Workstation for some years both for personal and professional purposes.

    I would like to convert my Linux host with multiple virtual machines to vSphere Hypervisor server with all my existing virtual machines and data.

    I currently have a Ubuntu 10.10 desktop on which I run Workstation 8 to host multiple virtual machines to Linux as a WebSphere Portal cluster (LDAP, DB2, ND, Portal 2 nodes). I also use it to host a VortexBox VM that contains my music collection. The audio files are not in the hard of the VortexBox, but are accessed through a sharing of the host folder. I have also several years of photos and documents on the host system.

    The material consists of:

    Motherboard Asus M4A785TD-V

    Corsair XMS3 16 GB

    Intel PWLA8391GTBLK PRO/1000 GT Desktop Network adapt

    1 x Hitachi 1 TB (empty)

    1 x Seagate 160 GB (photos, video)

    2 x Seagate 300 GB (Ubuntu, music, data, VMs)

    I am very new to vSphere. What I did was install vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi 5) on a USB 8 GB on the above system and created a store of data of the 1 TB drive.

    I also installed vSphere Client on a virtual Windows XP machine running on my MacBook; that I used to create the data store.

    Can someone provide measures of high level on how to proceed?

    I have an external hard drive on which I can copy existing virtual machines to deploy to the host of vSphere through Workstation 8.

    My main concern is the best way to keep my collection of music/photo/video to make it accessible by the VM VortexBox.

    Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

    Miguel

    ' Copy the VMs convert to another system so that I can deploy to the area of ESXi? Or is there a way to locate the VMs converted from the ESXi host (via vSphere Client) and deploy? »

    ESXi must work so that the converter convert and move them to ESXi. Since it is the same dialog that VMware Workstation works on, it would mean that Ubuntu and workstation are turned off. You convert the raw files to workstation (which takes care of the tool). This will probably mean temporarily copy workstation virtual machine files to a temporary location.

    "What is the advantage of the use of VMware Converter instead of use the VMware Workstation 8 to download the virtual machines on the ESXi host?"

    Eventually no matter. But remember that since ESXi must be executed, you can have the two ESXi running AND Ubuntu/workstation at the same time on the same box, so in your case, wouldn't be able to do this. Another option exports all the VMS to the models of the FVO (for an external HARD drive), and then once ESXi is running, import the OVFs.

    "I like the point that do you on a VM file server. If I decide to implement this option, I would be able to connect to the existing hard disks on the ESXi host without having to reformat, to preserve my data (music, photos, videos, docs, etc.)? Any recommendations? "

    Although it is technically possible to have a linux format hard drive visible to virtual machines (such as a ROW), it is very unusual and massively overcomplicates things. The best thing to do would be to move the data on the hard drive temporarily, format them as VMFS data stores and then only move the data back ontop readers in a virtual hard drive. To do this way, you get all the benefits of virtualization (eg. being able to easily move this virtual hard disk on different volumes and attach easily to different virtual machines, etc.). It's a little pain in the short term, but the long-term gain.

    «I'm assuming that a VM file server would be different from a NAS VM, as I have to format disks in file system regardless of the SIN in the SIN prefer (I saw a YouTube video describing FreeNAS).»

    A NAS and file server are essentially the same. There is nothing more an operating system that data sharing. They all use the same protocol for sharing (samba, CIFS, iSCSI, etc.), so it does not matter in general. But yes, typically performance based most NAS on Linux OSs, so yes, it's finally sitting on a file system (ext2/3/4) of Linux. Which shouldn't matter however, as long as your other machines can access the data. If I were you, I would buy a consumer NAS (which will offer more storage and can be extended), or configure a simple VM (like FreeNAS or other) and just give him a big a VHD.

    Hello

    OK, I did some download and testing yesterday and today and I found a tool chain that strives to do remote debugging a c application / c++ on a sbRIO-9651 with CentOS 7 host operating system.

    You must download this Linaro Toolchain for Cortex-A

    Once on the page go in the section "Linaro Toolchain for Cortex-A" and download the second link linux "linaro-toolchain-binary (big-endian).  The binary gdb is here, so you must point towards him in the Eclipse debug configuration.

    You may need to install the library added to your operating system.

  • moving from windows to linux host host

    Does anyone have any experience with workstation pro 12 comments mobile from windows to a linux host computer host?

    If Yes, can it be done?

    Thanks for your time.

    Hello

    Yes, this is no problem at all.

    Your VMS even will run on a Linux machine as they did under a windows host.

    The only problem is that if you link to a resource that explicitly is windows-only.

    For example. A share under a numbered car won't work, or not a cdrom on D:\

    Your VM will indicate on startup. BTW, when he asked 'have you move or copy' then choose 'move' otherwise your virtual hardware will get new hardware ID and for windows which means triggering activation.

After you save the settings, I booted the machine virtual Windows has detected a new network adapter, and after you configure it, I am able to access the internet.

  • Frames extended to the level of the OS?

    Quick question, I understand frames must be enabled end to end, but what I have to change the OS level too? I mean do I go into the properties Advanced NETWORK card and configure the Jumbo package it too or is configured to the vSwitch level enough? It seems to me that it would not hurt. I would have tested this, but I'm at a client and cannot test.

    Help is appreciated!

    If somewhere in the patern together there is no jumbo frames, all comes down to the standard MTU (1500). If you have a reason why you would need frames jumbo on the operating system, then you will need to configure it. It's usually if a customer wants to or for a specific application.

    If you use iSCSI storage it is recommended to use the frames extended as well.

  • Install vmware tools on the linux host offline

    Hello world

    I run a Fedora 10 VM using vmware player 3.1.2 on a crowd of Ubuntu 10.04. I'm trying to install vmware tools, but my host doesn't have access to the internet.  I've seen a few posts on how to install vmware tools offline on a windows host (http://communities.vmware.com/thread/245195), but the advice given may not be valid for linux hosts.  I downloaded vmware-tools-linux - 8.4.4 - 301548.x86_64.component.tar of http://softwareupdate.vmware.com/cds/ but this tar file contains a .component file (not an .iso that post said).  My question is what I should do with the .component file to install vmware tools?

  • Access to the network bridge works do not (Linux host & comments)

    I am running VMware Player 3.0.1 on Fedora Core 10. (I know this is not one of the host of the OS supported; could this be the problem?)

    I built a virtual machine with a virtual adapter connected by a bridge and am under Fedora Core 10 also in the virtual machine. The virtual machine does not have any network access.

    I followed all the advice of troubleshooting to the Knowledge Base article 1008367 (at http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC & docType = kc & externalId = 1008367 & sliceId = 1 & docTypeID = DT_KB_1_1 & dialogID = 77717080 & stateId = 0% 200% 2077715760) does not.

    On the Linux host, vmnet-bridge is running.

    / dev/vmnet0, / dev/vmnet1 and/dev/vmnet8 all exist.

    However, the Configuration GUI network (under GNOME) lists vmnet1 material devices, vmnet8, eth0 (it's my actual physical network interface), and the so-called pan0.

    On the virtual machine, I think I have configured the network correctly.

    ping an address on my LAN IP said "the network is inaccessible." (The same ping succeeds on the host).

    Clues to understand why the network access doesn't work?

    Ok

    Start by checking that the Fedora 10 vNIC is connected on the audit: VM configuration-> network adapter Bridge-> Connect at power on (must be verified).

    So when the guest of Fedora 10 begins the vNIC should be upward.

    If the eth0 is not upward, you should be able to install and configure then. You can search on the net how to set up the network on a host of Fedora 10. I recommend that you use just the console text to do so.

    Don't forget to configure fedora network depending on the configuration of your LAN (static or dhcp).

    Let me know if it works or not

  • Install Linux host - need to install some 1st time help

    I am trying to install "Server 2.0.1" on a Linux host (Kubuntu 9.04 'Wild'). I have reviewed the user guide and install the docs, but need jump start information so I can go.

    1. after installation of VMware server, install the Windows XP operating system together?

    (a) install the Windows XP operating system using a virtual machine console

    -OR-

    boot from the Windows CD and do a bunch fresh duel b) install along side Linux?

    -OR-

    (c) is it better to have Linux and Windows OS is installed before installing VMware Server?

    I probably have more questions, but I will stop here until I get some advice on how to proceed.

    Thank you!

    You can do everything above - normally, I would say to do a clean hd and partition it if you have what you need for the two operating systems - or use a tool such as Partition Magic to calve until you already have (if you do not want to go back to a clean slate).

    The benefits are that each OS can see the equipment (and use) it's own - so multimedia will be better - but you have to devote resources in advance.

    You can have Linux and XP installed with the server at a time, running the opposing OS... which is a bit random!

  • How to change the virtual IP addresses in 6.5.1 on the Linux host?

    I am running Workstation 6.5.1 on a 64-bit Linux host (Fedora 10).

    The application of "Virtual Network Editor" is distinguished by its equivalent in Windows.  It is quite reduced in functionality.

    What I need is a way to change the virtual IP addresses.  In the editor, I can only change the overall range of subnet (network address and the sous-masque).  It works very well.  However, I can not change the individual IP addresses in there.

    In particular, I need to change:

    .1 = the host itself

    .2 = services internal VMware (server proxy DNS, router, gateway, NAT, DHCP etc.)

    How can I assign these on Linux?  Pour.2, I saw the "nat.conf" file in the directory/etc/vmware, under the number of the device (in my case vmnet8) vmnet.   Pour.1, I've seen this in a number of places, the DHCP server, and others.  Where does get this information from VMware?  What I don't want is to have to change this IP address in many places, because it will become easy to get out of sync.

    If I just use "ifconfig" to change the IP address, it is an approach of brute force that works, but of course it will not survive a reboot.

    Traditional networks of the host Linux tools are unaware of the vmnet addresses.  Somewhere, they are configured with VMware, not the distribution of the host.  So, I wonder where it is.

    Thank you!

    (a) {10.10.10.254} ip - address of the NAT gateway.

    3 /etc/init.d/vmware script

    (a) check a function called vmwarestartvmnet()

    (b) after the/vmware-networks - the beginning of the line, add:

    ifconfig vmnetx xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx {ip host address we want to}-> vmnet1 ifconfig 10.10.10.253

    This works perfectly for me. The only thing is that, once you change these files, make sure that you get a copy of them. Otherwise after any update or configuration change who will be overwritten.

    I hope that VMWare will come with a better way to do that instead of hacking these files manually.

    HTH,

  • Linux host - bridge problems

    I have a host of Linux (CentOS 5.3) running VMWare Workstation 6.5.1 and I wanted to install a bridge connection so that my comments to Server Windows 2003 is able to directly access the internet and receive queries (such as remote desktop). Now correct me if this is not possible, but I have several IP addresses on eth0 and I try to get my W2k3 guest to have a dedicated IP address located on eth0: 1 or eth0:2. Bridge work not at all it seems. I tried to use vmnet0 and W2k3 is not able to get an IP address. I also tried directly affecting the packed network adapter, and that does not work either.

    I tried to configure a network card of vmnetx with one of the public IPs that I want to use, but it does not work. NAT works fine, but I can't access the server from outside of the host, is not all that attractive to me. Here is my output of ifconfig:

    If there is nothing wrong I do it please let me know because this has been driving me crazy for the last few hours.

    Have you tried simply configure connection bridged your W2003 guest with one of your public IP (static), with appropriate gateway, DNS, etc.?

  • Windows monitor linux host

    Hello

    I have FMS on Linux OS.

    Using the cartridge infrastructure I'm tring to monitor windows host.

    I get errors when connecting.

    I know that port 135 must be open and WMI profits as well.

    The problem is that I can't open the port range.

    Is there a way to monitor the Windows host without having to open the ports of WMI all?

    Best regards

    Victor

    In my opinion, that these problems are associated with this discussion.

    I agree, you must configure WinRM on windows host and see if the connection can be established. If WinRM is configured, it will be judged by WMI.

    FAM-3884

    A Manager Agent on a Linux platform cannot establish a connection to WMI for Windows Server 2008, Windows 7 or Windows Vista with a local user to the administrator group.

    FAM-3864

    A Manager Agent on a Linux platform cannot establish a WMI connection on a monitored Windows host when the Windows Firewall is enabled.

  • Linux host freezes with 10.0.6 Workstation and Windows 7 comments

    Hello


    I am now quite desperate because it is really preventing me from doing my job.


    I deleted Windows and I installed a fresh Kubuntu 14.04.02 (LTS) with 64 bit under my desk. I also installed VMWare Workstation 10.0.6 to run my development machines. I am now having serious problems:


    Every now and then, my full host is the gel if I'm running a Windows 7 virtualized on my workstation. The mouse only moves very slow and all the windows are very (!) slow response. My CPU monitor list all 4 CPU to 100%. If I managed to open the monitor system (or top on the console), I can see that vmware-vmx and kwin burn most of my CPU resources. If I wait 10 seconds to a minute, the system becomes usable. Now CPU goes down to normal. But as soon as I start to move a window (any one), the thing is happening again.


    Symptoms in short:

    • HOST: Linux Kubuntu 14.04.02 (x 64) on Intel i5 CPU with 8 GB of RAM and running on SSD (ext4).
    • COMMENTS: Several Windows 7 (x 32) several software running. Assigned 1 CPU and 1 GB of RAM. It comes on several guest computers.
    • Every now and then, all my CPU taking nearly 100% 4. The host CPU is used by vmware-vmx and kwin (used above) processes. Sometimes after 15 minutes, sometimes directly after turning on the prompt. No idea on reason.
    • Host of mouse, Windows, and OS works very very slow.
    • Meanwhile, Windows 7 virtual machine is inactive! Energy saving or screen saver are all off!
    • If I manage to run Taskmanager guests, I don't see an action (sometimes TaskManager itself using 60% of CPU!). Looks to me that the host is down, not comments!
    • My host is running an SSD (256 GB).
    • VM log file does not show something during this phase.
    • VMware.log attached.


    What I tried:

    • I disabled 'Accelerate 3D' for all my virtual machines.
    • I have re-installed VMWare Tools on the guest computers.
    • I run VMWare workstation with vblank_mode = 0/usr/bin/vmware
    • I recreated the machine with less hardware as possible and recharged the .vmd.
    • I converted to virtual prior to the current format format disk image (VMWare asked me to the front step, I said 'yes').
    • I have inserted a separate network card (NIC) and disabled the network card that is embedded in the BIOS.
    • I disabled the onboard graphics in the BIOS and added a card NVIDIA GeForce 8400 PCIx16 (using NVIDIA binary drivers provided by Kubuntu).
    • I removed the CD-ROM of the virtual, Audio computer, diskettes and any unused material.
    • I have tried using cpulimit strangle vmware-vmx and kwin on my host, but without success. System remains unusable in this situation.

    No success at all.

    Is there anything else I can do to put my environment in a productive state? You can imagine that this always happens in the worst situations :-(

    Any ideas?

    Thank you!

    I found this page:

    Disqus - Arch Linux becomes insensitive to khugepaged

    It seems that this did the trick!

    I ran (as root):

    never echo >/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag

    madvise echo >/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag

    Since then, everything works fine. :-)
