• Add new data warehouses to LM - Bug?

  I am trying to add a new data store to my new brand LM, for I am in 'Resources' - & gt; "Hosts" - & gt; Click home or right click on property - & gt;

  Under "available for this host data warehouses: ' I can see my two new LUNS which I attach to the availble early host and no tick on the front, then Iticked them and click OK.

  Then I went to the tap data store, still don't see no new one here.

  I missed any thing or it is a bug?

  Org are you?  If I remember correctly, you must make the data store available as a resource to the org.

• You can move to a new data store VMWare machine and if so, how?

  Possinly a bit of a numpty question but here goes.

  I created a VMWare machine, but VMWare files are stored on local storage. Now I'm assuiming that's why VMotion does not. My question is - is it easy to switch this machine in a store of data that is shared between hosts and how is it done.

  If you are running ESX 3.0, then the simplest would be a cold migration.  Alternatively, you can use VMware Converter.

• Movimentacao between data warehouses

  Pessoal, tirem minhas questions, please:

  Preciso mover some VMs between data warehouses, para Espaço realocacao, mas o client não possui o Storage VMotion. Then devo mover na mao mesmo:

  1. Desligar o servidor
  2. Remover o servidor inventario
  3. Mover a pasta server between os data warehouses (explore data store / move directory)
  4. Readicionar o servidor ao inventario
  5. Ligar o servidor

  É ISSO, certo?

  Estava pensando numa coisa, mas não sei is da certo e be e certo fazer.

  SE EU mudasse an ambiente licença para LICENÇA (FREE) AVALIAÇÃO, dai todos os recursos ficariam habilitados, como e por padrão na versão Avaliação. The EU Dai usaria o Storage VMotion e depois colocaria a licença of volta.

  
  Acham as daria certo?

  Abraço,

• Can't see the iSCSI data warehouses after reboot

  I have 2 ESX 3.5.0 u3 hosts running on Dell PowerEdge 2950 servers and connect to a Dell PowerVault MD3000i. Recently, I upgraded the MD3000i gen.2 firmware, and after the upgrade, one of the MD3000i controllers began to experience extremely slow (3-4 MB/s) write to its LUNS assigned speed. Dell support reviewed my setup and said I have a configuration problem - all 4 of the MD3000i ports are on the same subnet, while according to them, they should be divided into two subnets. I have interruption scheduled for this Saturday, close all virtual machines, added an additional VMkernel port and a service console for the new subnet on each host, removed addresses for two of the ports of discovery dynamic and restarted the two hosts. When they restarted, I changed the IP address on a single port on each controller. The servers came, restored 4-port iSCSI sessions and can see two LUNS defined on the MD3000i, but cannot see data warehouses - it's like they went, and LUN are naked. Creating new data warehouse will wipe away their own, and while I have current backups, I would rather jump restore all this from scratch. Is there anything that can be done here?

  -Very well, could be a problem of will:

• I have a virtual machine that is resident on two data warehouses, and I need to move

  Okay, I'm trying to reconfigure the storage on a cluster of ESXi to software development, and I fell on a virtual machine that is resident on two data warehouses.  Somehow, the user has configured this thing to have most of the VM files on the data store 5 while all the vmdk but the residence on the data store 1 boot drive.  He probably did it because of the size of the old warehouses of data and the many VMs older than his colleagues left sitting.  Well, now I just reconfigure data warehouses so that there is more usable space, but I can't move this machine a virtual so that I can reconfigure the rest of storage.  (For reference, the old warehouses of data have been implemented in 4 sets of three disks in RAID 3 and a set of four disks in RAID 3 with two drives hot spare.)  For the record: not my idea.  I am reconfiguring them now to be a set of 15 drives in RAID 6, divided into two LUNS on both controllers, with a hot spare.)

  Well, now I need to figure out how to get this VM is spent at one of new data stores.  The data migration store feature does not work.  Any recommendations?

  Hi Dangingerich,

  You can move the VMDK individually with the advanced functionality of storage vMotion allows you to ask the data disk on your new storage space and then have the OS disk track.

  Screenshots

  

  When you svMotioning click on the Advanced button

  

  Here you can select the individual VMDK and move.

• Replication of data to a new environment warehouses

  I have an environment with a set of data warehouses.  I want to circulate these data storage and virtual machines to a new environment with a new server vCenter.

  Can I use replication based on the Bay to do?  For example,.

  1 duplicate LUNS to the new environment

  2. connect the ESXi server in the new environment LUNs.

  3. go through data warehouses and find virtual machines.  Save virtual machines with the new vCenter server.

  What are the problems I have with that?

  Will I need will Lun?

  Thank you

  As mcowger said, you're going to need will the LUNS.  Otherwise, you will not be able to mount the LUNS.

  You can also do it in a different way.  You can connect the ESXi hosts both the value of LUN (new and old) and use Storage vMotion to move the VM to a logical unit number to another without interruption in service.
  Best regards

• Move VM between data warehouses

  What is the fastest way to move a virtual machine between two warehouses of data on the same host ESXi?

  I Don t use vCenter. The disks are thick lazy available at zero and about 400 GB in size.

  Follow these steps:

  • power off the virtual machine (do not suspend)
  • delete the virtual machine of the inventory
  • Open the data store with the virtual machine file
  • in the left pane, select the root folder and in the right pane, select the folder of the virtual machine
  • then either click on the "Move" icon or right click on the folder and select "move to".
  • Once moved, open the browser to store data to the new data store
  • Right-click right the VM .vmx file and choose "add to the inventory.

• Move VM vcenter to the new data store

  Hello

  I have a cluster with 2 data warehouses and I must "empy"one for then reassign the disks on the SAN. " However I seem to be in a situation of catch-22 virtual machines, I need to move/migrate is the VM vCenter. I need to have propelled him down to move the data store, but then I have no way related to migration. I presume that this requires a manual move/copy of the vCenter VM file to a data to another store, but not sure of the consequences etc..

  THX

  Gerry

  Since you are using a business license you can Storage vMotion, VM of for the new store of data without any stop.

  Select VM-> click on migrate-> select change Datastore Option

• New analysis of data warehouses... at the level of the Cluster with PowerCLI 5?

  Hello

  Since vSphere has been provided (I think) the option to open a new analysis of the HBA on every host in the cluster ESXs is available in the GUI if you click with the right button on the cluster, select analyze again to data warehouses.

  I have read several threads from people requesting this option in Powercli but have not found a solution for this.

  When you do Get-Cluster-name | Get-vmhost | Get-vmhoststorage - RescanAllHBA to do this, the new analysis a host once in the cluster.

  Is there a solution for this now in PowerCLI 5.0?

  Henrik

  As far as I know, there is still no option to launch the new analysis across the cluster in paralel.

• remove the new HBA analysis when creating data warehouses?

  I created a script to create multiple data warehouses (100 +), but notices after each one is created, it triggers a new analysis of all the HBAS the LUNS is announced to the.

  It is; This new analysis can hold until all data stores have been created, then just scan once at the end?

  example line of code to the ctreation store:

  < New-store data-server vcenter - VMHost esx.domain.com - name san-lun-01-path naa.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx - Vmfs - BlockSizeMB 4 >

  Thanks a bunch for all help!

  The new analysis is actually performed by vCenter, you could follow Duncans post for this disable manually or you can add a line to your script that adds the parameter disable the Rescan and then change it back after...

• ESX 3.5 move VM OS to a new data store

  Update of ESX 3.5.0 Build 4 153875

  I have a front-end server, Exchange 2007 (2008 x 64 OS), which has only a single drive (OS) configured on a data store presented by Clarion AX4.5 SAN. I wanted to move this disk in another data store that has more free space and the highest performance, but I'm not sure of the exact procedure.

  1 so I wanted instead of the disc on the data store runnign run it on the data store 2.

  Can I clone it to the same ESX host and simply select the new data store? Or would it be preferable to P2V to the new data store. This seems like it should be simple, but I'm stuck on what is recommended for this. Of course, since it is the front-end exchange I want nothing to screw.

  Thank you in advance for your help!

  If you have virtual center the easiest might be to cold migrate stop the virtual machine and migrates - you can leave it on the same ESX host, but will give you the ability to move the virtual disk.

• For the recovering site - new or replicated LUN data warehouses?

  I am trying to implimenting SRM 4.1, and so far the process has been very frank.  However I'm confused about something, and that's what data warehouses to be used on the recovering site.  My table replica LUNS on Lun matched.  Shoud I maps ESXi hosts the site caught in paired LUNS that are exact replicas of the protected site data storage?  Or should I create new LUNS and create new warehouses of data, and then use those LUNS when you create Protection groups?

  I hope that I have missed something in the docs, but I couldn't find the answer to this question after seraching various sites and sources.  What others have done with their MRS. configurations?  Thank you!

  SRM in conjunction with your variety of SAN replication maps will do it for you durin site pairing and Setup.

  Basically, the only thing you need to do is zoning on the FC switches or VLANS on Ethernet switches depending on what you use - storage FC or IP so that hosts the site of DR can reach the storage device.

  SRM with the securities regulators will take care of the rest.

• Move a vmdk file finely put in service a new data store - now it's thick?

  Hi all

  To elaborate a little bit on the title, I installed a second hard drive in my ESXi 4 server.  All my VMs use discs finely put into service, however, after that I moved the files of the virtual machine to the new data store (using mv) and readded the virtual machine to inventory, the disks are provided are thinner but are thick.  This behavior is expected?

  This is behavior expected - don't use mv to VMDK!

  Use rather

• Removal of host SDR data warehouses

  Hello

  I have a scenario where I want to migrate to a host and the VM between two clusters. I unfortunately had a number of DTS data warehouses attached to the host, no virtual machine is running from these storages of data on this host... I'm trying to disassemble stores but as expected get the error indicating that data warehouses are part of a cluster of EIM.

  Is it possible to no disturbance delete Host data warehouses.

  Thank you

  Steve

  So, what you want, remove some cluster DTS data warehouses and pass a host of a DRS cluster to another's is?

  Try the following steps:

  (1) remove the DTS cluster data warehouses, just move the data store outside the cluster for DTS;

  (2) move the host to the new DRS cluster target, if you have virtual machines running on it and cannot put the host in maintenance mode, you will need disconnect host, remove from the inventory and then add the host again to the new cluster.

  (3) If you wish, add data warehouses to the DTS of the new DRS cluster cluster.
