HA/FT if the hosts are remote of 100 m (330 ft)

I have 2 servers and they are about 100 m (330 ft) apart from each other.

I need to set up FT for some virtual machines, and now I intend to buy a storage shared for guests.

ISCSI with copper cables will do the trick or should I choose the solution of CF?

Question goes both - storage area network and network FT.

100 m is too long for FT work?

CAT6 Gigabit speeds is evaluated for exactly that distance. Are your leads patch will lengthen?

This is what your network can push more than a question of VMware. More than90 is generally regarded as requiring fibers, once you install hotfix leads.

    SYED

    This is known to cisco. The GBA 5.2 guide speaks of the same.

    «The observer logs & reports ACS is limited to 100 pages.» ACS applies filters as last 30 days only on the pages of the top 100. In case of very strong load monitoring reports & ACS Viewer may not able to view complete information for the filters such as 30 days.

  • ESXi hosts are disconnected from the vCenter (5.5)

    Hi all

    We have a little problem with our vCenter.

    We have two hosts that are connected to the vCenter, unfortunately, they are listed as disconnected.

    It seems that the problem are the SSL certificates on ESXi hosts that are no longer valid.

    If I replace the old certificates with new ones, that I have to restart the ESXi host, am I right?

    If so, that's the problem.

    We do not use any what automatic vMotion and as long as the hosts are not connected to the vCenter I can't manually, move right?

    Is it possible to connect hosts to vCenter without SSL?

    Sorry for my bad English, I'm not a native speaker.

    See you soon,.

    Johannes

    You need to replace the ESXi host SSL certificates.

    See the Docs for the replacement of ESXi Cert below.

    ttp://www.BlueBox-Web.com/2013/04/18/replace-ESXi-certificate/

    Documentation Centre of vSphere 5.5

    I had regenerate the ESXi 5.5 SSL certificates, which I did without any stop to virtual machines.

    Certificate replacement process can change based on the esxi version.

    According to the Doc, vSphere 6.0 Documentation Centre ESXi6 host must be rebooted to replace certificates.

    Anyway, in current state disconnected, you can try to regenerate the self signed SSL certs, restart management agents and try to reconnect host in vCenter.

    Thank you

  • Configuration of host and remote business partners

    Hello

    As new B2B, I have a very basic question.
    I have two machines, one which I use as a host of trading partner the other remote business partner. The steps in configuring the host partner would be the same as those required for the configuration of the remote trading partner?
    Currently the commercial host end partner, in addition to create identifiers for the host partner commercial, I am also
    1. create the remote partner
    2. create the credentials for the trading partner in the distance
    3 assign documents to the remote trading partner and
    4. creation of the delivery to the business partner channel.

    I guess I should do a similar configuration to the remote end of trading partner, before creating agreements for business partners.
    Is there something else that needs to be handled?

    It would be awesome if someone can share step-by-step instructions that would be required to set up the host and remote business partner. I use Oracle 11g B2B and have not worked with previous versions of B2B.
    Any help in this direction will be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you
    Priya.

    Hi Priya,
    Steps are correct and you must configure both machines.

    You can reference B2B samples available in samples of SOA in link below:

  • Clean shutdown for EqualLogic PS6100 without stopping the host/iSCSI initiator

    In fact, I've known the procedure on how to stop the Equallogic PS storage. But I have a question as well as the procedure.

    Do you really need to stop the iSCSI initiator or the host connected to the storage before you shut down the storage controller?

    Because we move the Equallogic box on the rack on the other. I just want to stop the Equallogic without stopping the hosts.

    Hello

    The hosts are connected to some other storage that you want to keep as you move the table EQL?  If you stop the storage, it is similar to pulling on a hard drive in its operation.  Most of the time nothing bad will happen.  But all entries that did not allow the storage is lost.   For applications such as SQL or Exchange is not something you want.

    If you need to keep the server up, stop all applications accessing the volumes, then disconnect all EQL volumes first, and then stop the EQL table.  Will be served waiting for the written word.

    Kind regards

  • iSCSI storage presented to the hosts managed by different vCenter Server - questions?

    I currently have three hosts (esxi 5.0) that are managed by vcenter server 5.5 U2. The hosts are attached to iSCSI LUNS (data warehouses) 10.

    I'm migrating to esxi 6.0 U2. For this, there are three new hosts have esxi 6.0 installed and managed by vcenter server 6.0 U2 U2.

    The plan is to detach/remove 5.0 5.5 U2 vcenter esxi hosts. Then import it into vcenter 6.0 U2 (a new cluster will be created). Once imported, uninstall the 5.5 vcenter u2. Then turn off the resident VMs imported esxi 5 hosts and move them to 6.0 esxi hosts.

    My query is regarding regarding storage.

    At present, three new guests see all storage the old 5.0 esxi hosts to see (guests are not in the cluster. "I'm still trying to put things up). That's because the new hosts were deposited to the same group on the side iSCSI initiator storage. Now things, data warehouses are visible by the hosts with esxi 5.0 (managed by vcenter 5.5 u2) and also the esxi hosts 6.0 (managed by vcenter 6.0 u2). The only VMs residing in esxi environment 6 is vcenter 6.0 u2 and update manager 6.0 u2. These are in a data store that is not any other virtual machines.

    That's no problem during the migration? I have not created a cluster for the esxi 6.0 hosts yet and plan to do after obtaining your entries.

    Thank you!

    No problem whatsoever, regardless whether if you do or that you add no vSphere 6 hosts in a HA cluster.

    If you temporarily enable EVC on the vSphere hosts 6, once all hosts are connected to the same vCenter you can VMotion all VMs to new hosts even without any stop. Clear CVS once the migration is complete.

  • Impossible to select the host for the pool, can only select Cluster

    Hello

    I try to assess the view and go into the Guide of the evaluators.  When I set up the parameters of resource under the vCenter part settings of the linked Clone Pool where I'm supposed to be able to select a host or a Cluster, I have only the option to select my (not an individual host) cluster.  The problem is that not all hosts in my cluster have access to the SAN that I use for this assessment, so I wanted to be able to isolate the pool to a single host.  Is there some kind of trick to get the hosts present themselves individually?  The hosts are 5.5 ESXi and vCenter vCenter 5.5 Standard

    Thank you

    Dylan

    You can only select the cluster. "Host or a cluster" refers to the fact that if you have a stand-alone Host which is not in a cluster, you can use - so you'd have to move the host you want to use on a stand-alone host or in its own cluster.

  • Sharing data between the host computer stores in different groups.

    I read in several places that sharing of data warehouses between the host in different groups is possible, but I don't get the warm and fuzzies when the hosts are different versions.

    vCenter is 4.1

    Group Alpha is 4.0 vmfs 3.33

    Bravo of cluster is 4.1 vmfs 3.46

    My goal is to move the virtual machines that meet the specific criteria of group Alpha for Cluster Bravo then the availability of flowing freely between clusters.

    The only concern I have is when adding Cluster Bravo to the same host of 3PAR alpha value of Cluster sharing all the data store, Cluster Bravo will try to reformat to vmfs 3.46 break Cluster Alpha to see the virtual machines stored in the warehouses of shared data?  I don't want to present the old warehouses of data to the new cluster only break from old cluster.

    Hello vmsjsn

    ESX/ESXi 4.X supports all versions of VMFS file system.

    Using your example of Alpha and Bravo. Kudos to will write more Alpha. you will be able to cross all hosts on the shared storage.

  • Vary the size of the host and the load balancing

    I have a 4 4-host ESX cluster that is almost the maximum ability to manage virtual machines ~ 80 (and growing).  The hosts are configured with 4 to 8 cores and 32 GB of RAM each.  RAM is currently the bottleneck; Processor is not far behind.  I plan to replace one of the hosts with a much larger machine, 12 cores, 96 GB of RAM.  If a host is significantly larger than the other hosts in a cluster, DRS will still do a good job of load balancing?  I guess the DRS will place multiple virtual machines on the host to the largest.  Is there a risk of DRS. putting too many virtual machines on the largest node?

    Until the cluster is in CVS mode, or processors are compatible vmotion, you can vary the size of the resource of physical machines in the cluster.  DRS will try to balance the load, the better it can over all cluster resources.  Depending on your level of DRS aggressive, improving to a particular machine in terms of past performance is considered, so more that likely, that you will have more vm on the host of the largest.

  • Why the guests are locked on the 100% on HP DL 385 G5p memory usage?

    I have performed nearly identical systems in several secondary schools.  Some are based on HP DL 385 G5 with 2356 processor and some based on HP DL 385 G5p 2378 processor with.  Aside from the slightly different patterns of the host, the rest of the systems are the same (amount of RAM, number of processors, etc.).  Host servers running Windows 2008 core server.

    When I look at the graph of the memory (%) running, the virtual servers on the G5 rise and fall use and release memory as expected.  However, all the servers on the G5p are locked at 100% use of memory and never move.  Can someone explain this difference in behavior?  Influence the way I should plan for future expansion of the system, etc.?

  • Configure the virtual server to 2003 to use two physical network adapters on the host

    I have a virtual server (Server 2003) that I'm trying to point two virtual NETWORK card to two different physical NICS on the host computer.  The two network adapters on the host are on separate networks, and I can't get virtual network cards to connect properly.

    I use VMWARE Server 2 with the virtual network manager.  All good instructions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Run the virtual network Editor.  Disable the automatic bypass.  Then, specify which of your physical NIC to the bridge to VMnet0 and specify the other physical NETWORK adapter on one of the switches (2-7, 9) unused VMnet.  In the settings of your virtual machine, select a virtual NETWORK adapter to be filled, and a 2nd we use custom connection and specify what VMnet switch to use (the one you filled the 2nd NETWORK card physical to).

    The host machine might have been locked by someone who just walked away from him or the host computer can be used remotely by its regular users.

    But despite this, I would use it to run a remote session to my regular machine.
