help build a host laboratory

I am looking to buy a couple of class desktop PCs for an esx laboratory seeks to build.

Here are the specs seeks for the esx:

  • Quad Core phenom

  • ASUS M4A78-EM

  • 8 GB RAM

for the SAN:

  • Athlon x 2

  • ASUS M4A78-EM

  • 2 GB

  • Open-E DSS Lite running for iSCSI

Don't see obviously those material in the compatibility list, so I am sure I could run into some issues.

I like to hear your thoughts and the recommendation on the build.

BTW, as a final review in the construction, am on a small budget. That's why no hardware server on my list.

Ceheck on http://vm-help.com/ it has great information on getting material not also supported work - if worse comes to worse, why not build your lab under vmware server or workstation environment

If you find this or any other answer useful please consider awarding points marking the answer correct or useful

  • Can not build cRIO host VI - niFpgaDmaChannelImplementation.ctl error

    I am trying to build my host VI on a crio9074.  At halfway through the build he hangs up while "saving niFpgaDmaChannelImplementation.ctl".  It hangs then there for about 10 minutes and then finally I get an error the build failed with this message:

    niFpgaDmaChannelImplementation.ctl

    Invoke the node in AB_Source_VI.lvclass:Close_Reference.vi-> AB_Build.lvclass:Copy_Files.vi-> AB_Application.lvclass:Copy_Files.vi-> AB_RTEXE.lvclass:Copy_Files.vi-> AB_Build.lvclass:Build.vi-> AB_Application.lvclass:Build.vi-> AB_RTEXE.lvclass:Build.vi-> AB_Engine_Build.vi-> AB_Build_Invoke.vi-> AB_Build_Invoke.vi.ProxyCallerMethod name: Save target: Instrument

    It happens regularly every time, so I'm stuck.  I searched and the mentioned control is in one of the directories support LV.  The VI I'm building uses FIFO readings to communicate with the FPGA.

    Is there a digital error code associated with this error?  I think that what you see is that when you build the rtexe, the files are drawn the file executable and causing the paths of the files to be too long.  Windows cannot support that filenames of 255 characters or less.  What happens if you move the location of the rtexe on the hierarchy of the directories in your machine?  For example, if you specify the location of the version to go to C:\ or C:\builds, something with a short path, the build succeeds?

  • Help build a dashboard

    Let me say that it is beyond frustrating working with the product. It is very easy to install and collect data. I think it's great for the resolution of the problems, but the IOC would like to see some signs of dashboard.

    I can create a dashboard, but I'm looking to create a background image, and then simply place a few dials spinning on the image. When I put a background image, it never shows upward. When I go to add data to the dashboard, I received what appears to be options of 1,000. I just want to find a representation simple for the health of the host, or if it's upwards or downwards.

    My biggest frustration with the product is that it seems to be for a lot of the represented data which is not very easy to translate or to represent with an object.

    Hello

    What format you use.   GIF/jpeg/png should work fine.

    I have seen in previous cases of version where there was a problem in which you may need to create the dashboard and set a background image when you have an empty dashboard.

    Once you have a white dashboard, open the right panel, choose Properties > change basic properties

    Then select the background picture link

    And download the image

    Once you have the dashboard with background image, there are a few things you can do.

    You can use existing views, please note that the default view is by module, but you can also check the box to see the views by role

    Or you can drop data, by dragging actions or objects on the screen and choose from the list of existing views.

    There are many good tutorials and links for drag and drop dashboards

    There is a webcast that was done as part of the series of admin (just check out the webcast you want to fill in your details and click on submit). https://software.Dell.com/event/Foglight-administrator-skills-101866232

    We have a video of dash custom on the support link

    https://support.software.Dell.com/Foglight/5.6.2/videos/17093

    And there are a good number of examples on the site of the community, of which some include the use of background images.

    http://en.community.Dell.com/TechCenter/p/searchresults#q=dashboard%20video

    Foglight gives you lots of options (sometimes too much), but the datatree itself has a good list according to categories vmware and has the ability to search a sepecific object in a list (host esx, virtual machines, etc..)

    (In my opinion) the best display options exist when you choose a layout for the dashboard of fixed size)

    In regard to the presentation of a status of the ESX host you can select alarm severity in different sizes and with or without name (if the name is not meaninful you select alarm severity without name and doing dragging text to give the icon a meaninful name).

    You can also select the health with history

    Hope this helps

    Thanks for the reply. I would be satisfied if you clearify with your own worlds. My question is why the author of the book that I am reading this:


    public Ch5Circle() {
    this (INVALID_DIMENSION);
    }

    Is there any use of it?

    'this' is used in a constructor to designate another constructor in the same class with the different argument list.

    In this case, if you understood the logic of the program, you wouldn't have this issue.

    If you do not specify the value of the RADIUS when creating the Ch5Circle class object, the default constructor will be called. The author defines the default constructor to set the RADIUS as -1 by calling the constructor of another. Hope you understand now.

  • Help Builder Flash broken after update

    Hi all

    I use the demo version of FB on OSX 10.5.8 and AIR beta 2 is installed. It was all working well, but once when I first started using FB in the menu, I got an alert saying there is an update available. I clicked the button to update and it appeared to start but after a minute or two, he threw an error. Since then has been broken using FB - msg: "Adobe AIR - the installation of this application is damaged... etc."

  • Help build a query!

    There are two tables. One is composed of members with fresh and then fixed percentile. I need to build a single query based on the following

    1. need to know the number of members who report to a beach fixed percent 10%, 40%, 50%. Suppose, total non-member = 50 then

    10%-> 5
    40%--> 20
    50%--> 25

    2. now, I need to order the members in accordance with their costs. Thus, if he follows the expenses of members sorted by cost

    A1 100
    A2 99
    A3 98
    A4 97
    A5 96
    A6 95
    .....
    .....
    A50 50

    then

    the total expenses should be discovered as

    10% [sum of the first 5: A1 to A5] = 100 + 99 + 98 + 97 + 96 = 490
    40% [sum of the next 20: A6 to A26]

  • Help setting up a laboratory at home using Cisco kit and a blank Superhub

    Hello world

    I just started my CCENT class and so I try to create a laboratory that is separate from my LAN House, initially using a blank Superhub and a Cisco 1841 router.  Please keep in mind that I am a beginner, so it may not make sense or be completely illogical...

    The superhub for those who don't know, is a renamed netgear, limit VMDG480.  It's basically a cable modem and router wireless combined.

    The normal daily LAN side of the network was the default installation to receive an IP address via DHCP from the superhub in range 192.168.0.1/24.

    At first, I thought I could put things in preparation for my lab installation, by configuring the LAN subnet using 192.168.0.0 and superhub of/16 mask rank for my 'everyday' network and 192.168.1.0 rank for my "laboratory at home." (Good or bad?...)

    Unfortunately, I'm unable to do so because the superhub only allows the last byte in the mask to be changed, so I changed the mask and it now reads 255.255.255.128, with the idea that I can always have 2 separate networks.

    In the photo above you can see devices on the right side are all directly related to the superhub and continue to work as usual.

    On the left side is where I've implemented a Cisco 1841 router and a laptop computer to test.

    The details of each device are;

    Blank Superhub
    LAN:192.168.0.1
    The DHCP scope: 192.168.0.2 - 192.168.0.126

    Cisco 1841
    Fast Ethernet 0/1: 192.168.0.126
    255.255.255.128

    Fast Ethernet 0/0: 192.168.0.129
    255.255.255.128

    PC2 (mobile wired connected to FE 0/0)
    IP: 192.168.0.200
    255.255.255.128
    Default gateway: 192.168.0.126 (the address IP of Cisco 1841)

    Someone would be kind enough to look at this and tell me where I'm wrong please?

    I thought about pulling the superhub completely, but I am bound to her by my ISP :(

    Hello

    It of a little early in your studies for this :) but implementation of your knees it should work:

    1841 router:

    int fa0/0 (interface connected to the hub)
    IP 192.168.0.126 255.255.255.0
    NAT outside IP
    No tap

    int fa0/1.2
    encapsulaton dot1q 2
    IP 172.16.0.1 255.255.0.0
    IP nat inside
    No tap

    int fa0/1 (interface connected to)
    No tap

    NAT configuration:

    access-list 1 permit 172.16.0.0 0.0.255.255
    IP nat inside source list 1 interface fa0/0 overload

    Add a default route:
    IP route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.0.1 (so your router knows where to forward DNS queries to 8.8.8.8)

    Connect your 3560 to the second port on the router and configure a trunk on the switch port and add vlan 2:

    int fa0/0 (connected to the 1841 router)
    switch to trunk encapsulation dot1q
    mode trunk switch

    VLAN 2
    name Home_Lab

    Connect your PC to the second switchport and add vlan2:

    int fa0/1
    access mode switch
    access switch vlan 2
    No tap

    Finally, give your PC an address in the subnet of vlan 2:

    IP: 172.16.0.2
    Mask: 255.255.0.0
    Gateway: 172.16.0.1
    DNS: 8.8.8.8

    You should be able to ping the address of the router on the subnet in 172.16.x.x 192.x.x.x. I don't have a Virgin hub to test this, but it worked well with two 1841 routers.

  • Help: The ESXi host has no persistent storage

    We have an ESXI 5.0 installed on our Dell server and we have some virtual machines running. suddenly, we had a mistake on Vsphere client.

    "EXSI host has no persistent storage.

    To run the virtual machine, create at least a data store for the maintenance of the machines virtual and other system files. »

    to resolve this problem, so we tried.

    On Vsphere client (connected to the ESXI)-> configuration-> storage-> rescan all... once the re-scanner has been done.

    We are able to see the file was mounted on the data store and it is lost in a minute. so it isn't permanently mounted to the data store to access the virtual machine.

    Once we do the re-scan once again, we saw that the file has been fitted to the data store and lost again.

    assemble and disassemble is to continue to switch.

    We need a solution to fix the problem, or in the worst case we need a way to recover the Esxi machine (VMS) data.

    Kindly share the reflections.

    It should be a disk error, it is local storage that tempt you and the virtual machine files are stored in the local disk

    don't forget to check the logs on the bit/ucs, regardless of the remote management tool, you use...

  • Home Server - Help Build ESXi

    Hey,.

    I struggled to create a base of ESXi due to compatibility server.  Here's my current version:

    Intel i7 4790

    Gigabyte Z97 - HD3

    2 x 1 TB Western Digital hard drives (SATA)

    Ballistix 16 GB DDR - 1866

    I realize that my motherboard is not compatible (now that I bought it).  First of all, it was the NIC, now he does not see the HARD drive.  I bought an Intel NIC who works with ESXi.  If I buy a RAID controller, that gets me around the issue of compatibility?  Did I meet problems more?  Or what is the motherboard cheaper who will work with a LGA1150?  I struggled with this too much and I just want to find the easiest way to make this work .

    Thank you very much for your help.

    Hey Mate,

    I recently bought a card mother-GA-Z97M-D3H (with i7 4790) to run ESXI 5.5

    I'm came across this post while searching for an answer - I found one, so I thought I'd share (should work as well for your motherboard, I don't think there is a big difference).

    The answer lies in the drivers, ESXi 5.5 does not have the drivers of NETWORK card or sata-xachi right.

    You can get these in a format VIB here:

    (File VIB itself) NIC VIB file: www.tinkertry.com/install-esxi-5-5-with-realtek-8111-or-8168-nic/

    (File VIB in the links at the bottom of this page) sata-xachi: http://vibsdepot.v-front.de/wiki/index.php/sata-xahci (this site seems broken, if you are looking for and go through the main page, it can charge, it is a copy - paste the right link...)

    Then, you will need to inject into the iso ESXi 5.5 via the customizer of ESXi (www.v-front.de/p/esxi-customizer.html).

    Then install your iso ESXi personalized on your machine (I used Rufus for this: https://communities.vmware.com/thread/457760 ).

    Good luck!

    p.s. the VIB attached files if you do not want to visit the sites.

Maybe you are looking for
