• ESXi installation before vCenter Server?  How can I get vCenter Server on a virtual machine on ESXi servers?

  My plan for a new vSphere Essentials Plus 5.5 U2a installation is to have the vCenter Server on a virtual machine on the servers of the host on which is installed ESXi.  However, all the installation instructions I found indicate the user to first install the vCenter Server.  How can I get vCenter Server on a virtual machine on ESXi servers?

  Thank you for your help.

  Hi munkyman welcome to communities.

  After you have installed your first ESXi host, open a browser and go to https://your-ESXi-ip-or-FQDN

  You can download the vSphere Client here. It is a windows application that you can install on your desktop. It is often referred to as the "c# Client vSphere" in communities and blog posts, because it is a new implemented in the vCenter Server Web client.

  But for the beginning, install the vSphere Windows Client. You can then launch it and connect directly to your ESXi host. Here you can create your first virtual machine, which can be the VM vCenter (installation of Windows or device, that is you).

  You can use the web client or connect to the Server with the client c# vSphere vCenter VCenter runs.

• Get the IP of the virtual machine and MAC

  Hello

  I'm trying to get the IP of the virtual machine and the MAC one of my data centers.

  When I run that the following script two things happen:

  1. I don't see a vm in the output of the csv file.

  2. when I send the output to the quick PowrCLI I see only a mac and one IP address for virtual machines with network cards.

  Script

  ---------

  $MV = Get-Data Center $DC | Get-vmhost | Get - VM

  {foreach ($VM to $VMs)

  $VMx = get-view $VM.ID

  $HW = $VMx.guest.net

  foreach ($dev to $HW)

  {

  foreach ($ip in $dev.ipaddress)

  {

  $dev | Select

  @{Name = 'Name'; {Expression = {$vm.name}}.

  @{Name = 'IP address'; Expression is {$ip}},

  @{Name = 'MAC'; {Expression = {$dev.macaddress}} |

  Export-CSV VM - IP - Info.csv - NoTypeInfo

  }

  }

  }

  My console output, tested on a virtual machine with two external network cards and an internal interface "dummy".

  Name                               IP                                  MAC

  VM1 192.x.x.xxx xx

  You see the addresses expected in summary using vSphere Client VM?

  Oh sorry, I forgot the PS 3.0 requirement.

  You can put all the entries in a table and export all at the end of the script.

  $out = @)

• Get a count of all virtual machines (with some filtering)

  I try to get a total number of virtual machines, excluding some vShield edge devices and virtual machines in a certain set of resources (System vDC). I'll start with this:

  use strict;

  use warnings;

  use VMware::VIRuntime;

  {PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME} $ENV = 0;

  OPTS::parse();

  OPTS::Validate();

  Util::Connect();

  Use Data::Dumper;

  # Get all items in the inventory of the specified type

  My $e_vm = Vim::find_entity_views (view_type = > 'VirtualMachine', properties = > ['summary.config.name']);

  my $count = 0;

  {foreach (@$e_vm)}

  My $vmName = $_-> {'summary.config.name'};

  If (!) () $vmName = ~ m/EdgeGW/i) & &! ($vmName = ~ m / ^ vse/i)) {

  $count ++;

  } else {}

  Print "Audit."... VMName: ".." $vmName. » \n » ;

  }

  }

  printf ("TotalVMs:%d \n",$Count);

  Util::Disconnect();

  It works well enough, but try to go to the next step, this is where I get into trouble. In theory, should be a string of resourceConfig.entity.name (if I read correctly the API documentation). I can't find a way to get this string for comparison within the foreach loop.

  Any ideas?

  The resourceConfig.entity is a ManagedObjectReference to get the name, you'll have to Vim: get_view() against this moref.

  But you can also do another way, for example by using begin_entity in your find_entity_views() call.

  use strict;

  use warnings;

  use VMware::VIRuntime;

  {PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME} $ENV = 0;

  My % opts =)

  pool-online {}

  type-online "s =",

  variable-online 'pool',

  );

  OPTS::add_options (%OPTS);

  OPTS::parse();

  My $pool_name = Opts::get_option ("pool");

  My $pool_view = Vim::find_entity_view (view_type-online "ResourcePool",

• How to get performance counter stats for virtual machine?

  Hi again,

  I managed to connect to the web service using VI SDK 2.5 and I can't what are virtual machines installed on the host system. I want to get the VMS performance counter values. How to get values of virtual machines performance counter?

  try {

  service = util.getConnection () .getService ();

  SIC is util.getConnection () .getServiceContent ();.

  perfMgr = sic.getPerfManager ();

  Utils VMUtils = new VMUtils (util);

  I havef(vmList! = null) {}

  System. .println ("Host a" + vmList.size () + "virtual machines");

  System. the.println ("name vm" + vmList.get (0) m:System.NET.SocketAddress.ToString () + "vm 2" + vmList.get (1) m:System.NET.SocketAddress.ToString ());

  }

  }

  Hello

  In order to obtain the performance counter for a managed entity, you must have following:

  1. get the managed object to the PerformanceManager object reference

  2 get the ProviderSummary object for this entity. It also helps determine if the current or summary statistics are supported.

  3. get performance metrics available for the entity. In a given time interval, the statistics will be available for these measures.

  4. the performance statistics for the entity desired metrics extracted from the step above queries

  5 examine the returned data object to get the statistics.

  Attached, is an example of Java, which takes the name of the virtual machine, run the steps above and print the available counters and their stats. You can take the help of this example and can improve to get statistics for all the virtual machines in your host application.

  Hope this information is useful.

• VSphere number of virtual machines per CPU

  I've seen estimates of virtual machines per CPU and I understand that it depends on a combination of things. I think 4-5 virtual machines per CPU is up around. We run HP Proliant DL380 G5s (2 quad core) and it seems like that 4-5 per CPU core will be our number. Memory being the main factor limiting.

  I am now watching the servers (2 quad core) Proliant DL380 G6 and recital 72 GB of memory. Before I size like that, I want to know if the 8-10 mV by heart is conceivable. Even if I think that my current hardware could choke if I tried, I thought that perhaps most recent families of processor as the Proliant G6 Nehalem with VSphere improvements with regard to the planning of the CPU that could be a possibility.

  Also, I assumed variess speed processor directly with the virtual machine by core equip. As CPU speed increses # or virtual machines by increases in Basic. Is this correct?

  You're right it depends on many things, but for the general basic rules 4 - 6 virtual machines by heart for ESX 3.x and you can run no risk 6 to 8 virtual machines to vSphere, if you know that your virtual machines are use of the lamp, then pushing to 6-10VMs might do, but you should perhaps follow the activities and decrease if resources are hammering.  vSphere certainly has better CPU planning services and get the best performance from predecessor.  I test it on a test environment and the maximum stress and see how it runs.  What types of workloads and servers do you think?

  If you found this information useful, please consider awarding points to 'Correct' or 'useful '. Thank you!!!

• Software required to get the value of unused virtual machines

  Almost 300 more virtual machines are running in my organization. Now, I need to identify the virtual machines that are not in use last period of one month so that I can approach the resources of concern against their virtual machines and get confirmation to remove these unused host machine virtual machines.

  Help kindly pointed out what software can provide information required for the performance of house-keeping of the Virtual Infrastructure.

  You could try vCenter Operations Manager (vCOPs).  Who has the ability to produce various reports including the integrated 'Idle Virtual Machines' that looks at the VM CPU: % idle time, disk i/o i/o idle time and % idle time network.

  I guess it would be possible to do something with PowerCLi (Google can be your best friend with this well).

• VSphere 5.1: Virtual Machine does not share host RAM

  Hello

  I use a 5.1 Vsphere license (Vsphere 4 update)

  I am facing a problem after the upgrade, virtual machines do not RAM

  As if I have two machine with 2 GB of RAM in total then use of the RAM on the HOST becomes 4 GB but really active memory usage is about 1 GB only.

  It wasn't a problem in Vsphere 4 it shows an active memory as the HOST memory usage but in Vsphere 5 Virtual machine share not RAM and book full RAM when turned on.

  Maybe there's some settings to enable sharing of memory or to disable this full booking of RAM.

  Hello

  The changes are the VMkernel is using large pages to back up virtual memory pages.

  For more information, this article by Duncan will provide enough information and links to other articles on this topic:

  http://www.yellow-bricks.com/2011/01/26/re-large-pages-gabvirtualworld-frankdenneman-forbesguthrie/

  In short VMkernel will place pages issued by the VM in large pages on the physical memory to speed up the memory access. Large pages are used when the physical CPU that has functions EPT (Intel) or IVR (AMD).

• Cluster VI3 and vSphere Cluster (migrate virtual machines)

  I have a VI3 and vSphere cluster.  Could I just drag-and - drop my virtual machines to the new Cluster or do I have to upgrade the virtual machines ' hardware of the v4 to v7?

  Thanks in advance

  1. you don't have to upgrade the virtual machine hardware, it is optional.

  2. you do not have to create new cluster, simply upgrade existing by-host. Virtual machines with hardware v4 can be VMotion'ed between 3.5 and 4.0 hosts

• mix and match between vsphere 4.0 virtual machine and the hardware esxi 3.5 version run 4 on vsphere 4.

  If you run a virtual machine on vsphere and not upgrade the virtual hardware, this has it problems?

  My plan was to install on a server and then machines of vm, vsphere without upgrading the hardware on the machine to the virtual machine.

  So I can then migrate the machines on my esxi 3.5 server if necessary.

  Like many of you, I plan to update my test servers before upgrading my production servers.

  If you have 3.x hosts in your cluster, and then I'd wait for upgrade virtual hardware and your guests VMware tools until all your ESX hosts are on the same generation.

• How to get the name of my virtual machine to a named resource pool

  Based on the script ghettoVCBg2 on the platform VIMA, I realized a backup solution for my ESXi (free) servers (also an automatic mailing is integrated ). My next goal is to integrate an automatic selection of my computer virtual based on the name of the list of resources. To understand, I have mainly two categories '1_Productive' and '2_Test', from resource pools. In both categories, there is a resource pool 'SRV' and 'CLT '.

  for example: 1_Productive-SRV-VM

  ------CLT-VM

  At the time of the backup, I have to manually enter the name of the virtual machine in a file. My question is how to integrate an automatic selection for example my pool of resources "SRV." My first idea was to shoot the 'vidiscover.pl' tool and run it for each server separately. Subsequently I merge files into a single file for ghettoVCBg2. You should know I want only to mit backup s excluded '1_Productive\SRV' VM '2_TEST\SRV '. But the name in double "SRV" can be replaced. A really great solution could be a direct integration in ghettoVCBg2

  Could someone help because I'am not very firm with perl programming...

  Thank you very much.

  Take a look at this review of the script: listVMsInResourcePool.pl
