General call for help (w/ESXi 5 Ent vServer more)

Hello

I hate to feel that helpless and have to put up a post like this one. I have been using Xen (no XenServer Xen just) for a number of years and have been asked to evaluate ESXi 5 as a possible solution, because a client can go this route in order to obtain LEED certification (zero positions clients, virtualisation, virtualization, cloud, public and private, etc.)

It is in the Financial Services space, and we are currently using Xen XCP on individual servers so that a small group/team share the same server (s). We have done no HA, failover, clustering, etc., but we must move in this direction.

I have a trial license, but also a company full more license (signed for the eval after that I got the Ent +). I know it is not sensible, but we a sub-affiliate of a very big client VMware Enterprise, then we were given a license key to use for our assessment (6 months).

All I want to do is build a simple HA cluster through a multiple node machine - and then have it failover to a second machine (the two are exactly the same). As much as I know at this point is that I need vcenter Server to manage clusters & several hosts, but we do not have a domain, don't use AD (nor we want to) and we use hardly any Windows operating system. To complicate still, two groups will have to be in a sandbox environment, while the other two groups not - but none of the machines will never hit the internet. (which means that you VPN into a machine and remote desktop then in your virtual machine from the inside the VPN)

So we do not AD, we do not have a domain, most of our BONES ' are are Ubuntu Server (Linux CLI)

Is there video tutorials in line/youtube? Is it possible to Setup? I MSDN so I can easily fool around with AD + DNS if I need to, but don't currently use us and want to avoid at all costs.

I'm not most AD/DNS/Server 2008 smart person out there, but I could not yet find installation tutorials easier to try the 'standard' method to install it gave.

My demonstration/test environment consists of 4 Dell T5500 positions, each with 72 GB of RAM, 2 identical x 6-core CPU (with HT) and an array of 3-drive RAID5 HARD on a LSI HW raid card. each machine has 2 x dual port 10 G NIC and a single 1 gig NIC quad (that we will use in production). I would build two HA clusters, two machines for each and I would like to have a failover cluster on the other.

The machines are physiclly located in my office (not rack-mounted, etc.).

If someone could point me in the right direction it would be most appreciated.

THX!

Can I use a domain name (false) for the installation process, but then NOT use AD for my virtual machines? (I assume that you can simply because a Linux OS would not be in the announcement)

Yes, it's fine.

  • VIEW very difficult to write (call for help)

    I was stuck for many hours on this problem...

    Suppose you have two orthogonal tables that follow the same inventory *. For example, we follow by lot or batch code and a securities regardless of status (available, reserved, wedge, etc...).
    create table lot (skuid varchar2(10),qty number, lot varchar2(10));
    insert into lot (skuid, qty, lot) values ('SKUA', 3, 'A5');
    insert into lot (skuid, qty, lot) values ('SKUA', 4, 'A10');
    insert into lot (skuid, qty, lot) values ('SKUA', 1, 'A11');
    
    
    create table status (skuid varchar2(10),qty number, status varchar2(10));
    insert into status (skuid, qty, status) values ('SKUA', 5, 'AVAIL');
    insert into status (skuid, qty, status) values ('SKUA', 1, 'RES');
    insert into status (skuid, qty, status) values ('SKUA', 2, 'HOLD');
    Since it is probably a very bad way to model these data (and for many other reasons...) the challenge is to write a view that makes all this information available in a single view.

    What these paintings looks like now:
    SQL> select * from lot;
    
    SKUID             QTY LOT
    ---------- ---------- ----------
    SKUA                3 A5
    SKUA                4 A10
    SKUA                1 A11
    
    SQL> select * from status;
    
    SKUID             QTY STATUS
    ---------- ---------- ----------
    SKUA                5 AVAIL
    SKUA                1 RES
    SKUA                2 HOLD
    Should look like this in the *(desired output of view) view: *
    SKUID          QTY           LOT            STATUS
    ----------     --------      ----------     --------
    SKUA           3             A5             AVAIL
    SKUA           2             A10            AVAIL
    SKUA           1             A10            RES
    SKUA           1             A10            HOLD
    SKUA           1             A11            HOLD
    What I did is sorted by LOT and kept a total run of each BATCH, because the quantity consumed the STATE table until each BATCH/STATUS is consumed by the view.

    It is simple and intuitive for a human or program, but I really struggled to try this in SQL. Intuitively, I feel I must join the tables (knowing I'll get a Cartesian product) and do the math to determine the quantities and then to an external selection, throw the Cartesian lines that I didn't need (with the quantity calculated from 0). I thought that this would be certainly solvable using analytical functions to keep the totals accumulated by STATUS and by the draw, if I join on the two tables as a starting point, but the problem is too circular... analytical columns depend on the themselves (or the lag() of themselves). I'm doubting it's possible with the analytical functions. Also considered to be CONNECT BY on the join of the tables of SKUID, but does not seem to fit...

    Oh,... a 'note' more... the view should be achievable on * 8i *.

    PL/SQL is necessary? (I'd rather she be seen independent SQL without custom function calls, but if this is impossible, be it). More accurately, I would prefer it to be as effective as possible, so that means that only SQL or PL/SQL.


    If anyone can solve this?

    Hello

    The following solution makes a separate line for each element (such as quantity) and re-handset then using GROUP BY.

    I made a few assumptions about the order.
    I guess the lots are sorted by the first character (sort as a string), then by the numerical value of the other characters. In other words, if you had much 'B1', he would come after much "A11" (because of the first letter), but much "A5" comes before "A10" and "A11" (because of the digital part). You will need to adjust the ORDER BY clause that is analytic in the subquery lr if I guessed wrong.
    I assumed that the status is ordered exactly as it appears in the output: 'ENJOY '.< 'res'="">< 'hold'.="" again,="" if="" i="" guessed="" wrong,="" change="" the="" order="" by="" clause="" in="" sub-query="">

  • Implementation of the call home help

    Hello

    So I'm trying to set up notifications by e-mail to one of our UCS configurations and I run into some questions, or rather, I'm not sure what im up against.

    I would like to paint a picture and see if someone can help me understand what's wrong.

    I'm under the asumption that Call Home can be configured internally, without having to communicate with cisco, in order to receive email alerts whenever there are problems in the system. (the cisco assisted by an intelligent call home, that im not interested at the moment). Is it a correct assumption?

    Requirements for the establishment of appeal asking conectivity ip between the interconects tissue and the smtp server. Currently the fabrics and the mail server are on different VLANS, however we have access lists to allow traffic through VLANs smtp. In addition, there are precedents of other servers on the same vlan as the tissues by communicating with the smtp server to send notifications. Thus, it is confirmed that such traffic flows between the two VLANs.

    So on until the configuration.

    On the general tab for call home my email is on the email field coordinated as well as in the From and reply to fields. The ip address of the smtp server and port 25 are also specified in the corresponding section.

    Tab theres 3 defautl profiles (CiscoTAC-a, full_txt, short_txt) plus a profile adutional created by me. Alerts in the additional profile groups are Cisco Tac, diagnosis and environment. No other options are available. It also has 'Warning' like format Txt Full level and my email as the recipient.

    In the policies tab, I activated aquipment degraded material unusable, hardware problem and link down.

    So, knowing these parameters should I notifications by mail electronic wexpect when a drive goes down or, if down, link when a host starts up again (I added that one, to test the reason)? Or have I missed something. Any other info I could provide to better understand my situation?

    Thanks in advance,

    Stephen

    Stephen,

    Yes, Call Home is just internal, while Smart Call Home is one that opens the case with TAC and you will pay for this feature.  If you are right with your first assumption.

    Regarding the link between tissues and the SMTP server, run a ping of the FIs and check connectivity, if this works, you should be fine. Orders must be:

    UCS # connection local-mgmt

    X.x.x.x ping B (local-Mgmt) # < if="" you="" do="" not="" specify="" the="" amount="" of="" pings="" to="" send="" with="" the="" "count",="" the="" ping="" will="" be="" an="" extended="" ping="" (="" equivalent="" to =""> t)

    Settings Call Home look quite good for me, but as far I know (IMHO) unusable discs are NOT reported by Call Home while a link down is definitely declared.

    Remember that policies must not only be created, they must be turned on too; and also do not forget that the system will only send classified messages according to the level that you specified (warning) in the profile you created.

    You can also use this document for troubleshooting more far away, like sending an "inventory of the system" and make sure that he knew.

    Just got yet another call for "Windows service station', saying: I was hacked and my computer sends windows warning messages and if I didn't follow his instructions all my data would be deleted... An Indian-sounding guy named Sam... I played along and got a phone number, saying: I would like to remind him he said 0808 1890111 which is a UK addiction hotline...

    I played along 'Sam' gave me an extremely long code to type in something on the windows event viewer... I know it's a scam and we have these calls often 3 times a week for a few years now. I play at the same time or am quite rude and tell them to be ashamed of themselves, depending on my mood... I really wish that they would go, but I can't this blocks 'any number' because it is off the coast.
    Any suggestions on how to remove our number and the name of their list (I asked the scammers do, but they don't notice).

    Certainly a SCAM, you have made the right choice. Never to give them information and never leave access to your PC.

    It is difficult, if not impossible to remove your number from a list of scam once its on it. And it's hard to know how they got it in the first place. It could be a list simple phone book. Recording with things like Telephone Preference Service (United Kingdom) and asking to be made "Red" (BT - UK) can make it harder for them to get a number in the first place, but once they have it probably wont help. It can stop any other do however.

    There are devices like Call Blocker, which can be programmed for their calls not ring your line, but it depends on what number they release when they call. If their number is "held" and then some providers have a service to stop calls "deductions number' to ring your line. ACR service (BT - Uk).

    PS - the links above are a few examples of our services/devices to the United Kingdom for more information.

    I'm content Chair EMP/BI for the Kscope16 Conference in Chicago. I would like to publish a call for contributions in the concerned areas.

    It of nothing that specifically prohibits this as far as I can see in the rules, FAQ or rules of conduct documents. The moderators have no problem with that? I don't really want to have my deleted messages simultaneously in eight areas and become a topic of conversation in the mod space...

    I do not think that a post from me on OTN involves any kind of support of the Oracle, but for what is interesting (and for those who don't know) Kscope is a 100% Oracle conference that enjoys the support of several "branches" of Oracle, OTN no less.

    I post here in order to achieve the OTN community managers (moniquevdb-Oracle, Laura Ramsey-Oracle and so on) for an 'official' answer and not to interview all the members, and very respectfully, I ask that someone don't not corresponding to the old description that wants to offer an opinion in a separate discussion. I'm sure that won't work.

    Thanks for your time.

    Product areas would not be the right place for this, but we can probably find a reasonable way to publish a call for contributions in a general area. I added you as a friend if you can me message directly. In the meantime I'll connect with Hocinebelatreche-Oracle and Oracle-valeriesimpson to make a recommendation.
