help required for cisco nexus 1000v

Hello

I have three esxi host in my environment and I want to integrate these hosts with cisco nexus 1000v switch.

I installed vsm on host1 and adding the remaining host via vsm Update Manager. exchanges I have already create in SMV shown in the welcome that I've added to the vsm, but the port group is not shown on the host1 esx on which I have installed vsm, should I also add the host that contains MSM in the cisco nexus switch?

I want to say that I have installed the MEC on any army three esxi. is it good?

Hi Mohsin,

Where did you read that? In the past, we have added the guests, including one who executes the VSM. Usually run us both VSMs (primamry and secondary) and add anti rules affinity so that the two VSMs are on different hosts. I'm not a person CISCO, but having worked with CISCO engineers, we had no problem with what you have just mentioned. It would really be a waste of host in my opinion. I don't see why this could be a problem... As long as you have all your trade (PGs for your packages VSM etc etc) in place, you should be able to add all hosts in my experience.

  • Cisco Nexus 1000V Virtual Switch Module investment series in the Cisco Unified Computing System

    Hi all
    I read an article by Cisco entitled "Best practices in Deploying Cisco Nexus 1000V Switches Cisco UCS B and C Series series Cisco UCS Manager servers" http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/switches/ps9441/ps9902/white_paper_c11-558242.html

    A lot of excellent information, but the section that intrigues me, has to do with the implementation of module of the VSM in the UCS. The article lists 4 options in order of preference, but does not provide details or the reasons underlying the recommendations. The options are the following:

    ============================================================================================================================================================
    Option 1: VSM external to the Cisco Unified Computing System on the Cisco Nexus 1010

    In this scenario, the virtual environment management operations is accomplished in a method identical to existing environments not virtualized. With multiple instances on the Nexus 1010 VSM, multiple vCenter data centers can be supported.
    ============================================================================================================================================================

    Option 2: VSM outside the Cisco Unified Computing System on the Cisco Nexus 1000V series MEC

    This model allows to centralize the management of virtual infrastructure, and proved to be very stable...
    ============================================================================================================================================================

    Option 3: VSM Outside the Cisco Unified Computing System on the VMware vSwitch

    This model allows to isolate managed devices, and it migrates to the model of the device of the unit of Services virtual Cisco Nexus 1010. A possible concern here is the management and the operational model of the network between the MSM and VEM devices links.
    ============================================================================================================================================================

    Option 4: VSM Inside the Cisco Unified Computing System on the VMware vSwitch

    This model was also stable in test deployments. A possible concern here is the management and the operational model of the network links between the MSM and VEM devices and switching infrastructure have doubles in your Cisco Unified Computing System.
    ============================================================================================================================================================

    As a beginner for both 100V Nexus and UCS, I hope someone can help me understand the configuration of these options and equally important to provide a more detailed explanation of each of the options and the resoning behind preferences (pro advantages and disadvantages).

    Thank you

    No, they are different products. vASA will be a virtual version of our ASA device.

    ASA is a complete recommended firewall.

  • Cisco Nexus 1000v switch

    Hi, I have 2 questions about the Switch Cisco Nexus 1000v.

    First of all, why use it rather than the standard vswitch distributed?

    Second, if an environment currently works using distributed vswitches, what are the impacts and the problems likely to introduce a Switch Cisco Nexus 1000v? Is there a process for the upgrade?

    See you soon

    Here is a comparison for the most up-to-date between the optioins network:

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/prod/collateral/switches/ps9441/ps9902/solution_overview_c22-526262.PDF

    The great driver with most of the people running the 1000v I talked to is give visibility to the network team and streamlining changes made to the virtual network environment. In a great organazation with a network operations team, they will create an IVR to route a new VLAN, and then create the new VLAN on all switches distribution and access in the area of layer 2, just 1000v allows them to move forward and it create on the hypervisor using a set of commands that they already know.

  • Why is - that someone would need Cisco Nexus 1000v when DvSwitch is so Kool

    Why is - that someone would need Cisco Nexus 1000v when DvSwitch is so Kool

    Or is it something that DvSwitch cannot always do that Cisco Nexus 1KV possible?

    Use of 1kV Nexus are clear enough, if you want to segregation, the advanced settings of COS, use Cisco VSG, etc. etc., you must use Nexus 1kV. But if you do not use one of these, why would you pay more money to use a Nexus 1kV, while you can use dvSwitch, giving you more or less the same basic features. After all, the 1kV has been developed using the dvSwitch framework.

  • Restoration of Cisco Nexus 1000V - Host-ID fingerprint

    Someone find some information about how to restore a Cisco Nexus 1000V?

    The license is the result of a fingerprint of the identifier of the VSM. In case we lose the VM with VSM or host ESX Server must be reinstalled, this print is different. So that would mean the licensekey need, it's be regenerated.

    Has anyone found information on it?

  • Cisco Nexus 1000V - DMZ - ARP

    Hello

    Thanks for reading.

    I have a virtual (VM1) connected to a Nexus 1000V distributed switch.  The willing 1000V of a connection to our DMZ (physically, an interface on our Cisco ASA 5520) which has 3 other virtual machines that are used successfully to the top in the demilitarized zone.  The problem is that a SHOW on the SAA ARP shows the other VM addresses MAC but not VM1.

    The properties for all the VMS (including VM1) participating in the demilitarized zone are the same:

    • Tag network
    • VLAN ID
    • Port group
    • State - link up
    • DirectPath i/o - inactive "path Direct I/O has been explicitly disabled for this port.

    The only important difference between VM1 and the others is that they are multihomed agents and have one foot in our private network.  I think that the absence of a private IP VM1 is not the source of the problem.  All virtual machines recognized as directly connected to the ASA (except VM1).

    Have you ever seen this kind of thing before?

    Thanks again for reading!

    Bob

    The systems team:

    1. Rebuilt the virtual machine
    2. Moved to another cluster
    3. Configured for DMZ interface

    Something that they got the visible VM to the FW.

  • Upgrade to vCenter 4.0 with Cisco Nexus 1000v installed

    Hi all

    We have vCenter 4.0 and ESX 4.0 servers and we want to upgrade to version 4.1. But also Nexus 1000v installed on the ESX Server and vCenter.i found VMware KB which is http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1024641 . But only the ESX Server upgrade is explained on this KB, vCenter quid?  Our vcenter 4.0 is installed on Windows 2003 64-bit with 64-bit SQL 2005.

    We can upgrade vcenter with Nexsus plugin 1000v installed upgrading on-site without problem? And how to proceed? What are the effects of the plugin Nexus1000v installed on the server vcenter during update?

    Nexus1000v 4.0. (version 4).sv1(3a) has been installed on the ESX servers.

    Concerning

    Mecyon,

    Upgrading vSphere 4.0-> 4.1 you must update the software VEM (.vib) also.  The plugin for vCenter won't change, it won't be anything on your VSM (s).  The only thing you should update is the MEC on each host.  See the matrix previously posted above for the .vib to install once you're host has been updated.

    Note: after this upgrade, that you will be able to update regardless of your software of vSphere host or 1000v (without having to be updated to the other).  1000v VEM dependencies have been removed since vSphere 4.0 Update 2.

    Kind regards

  • Help required for binding Organization Admin roles of user profile in R2

    Hello

    We use IOM 11.1.2.0 (without patch).

    Current requirement:
    We have an obligation to provide search capabilities to end users to search/view users of other organizations in the IOM.
    For example: I am a member of Org1: UK, so OOTB IOM supports the search / look at a profile of the users of the British organization. I can't find/view modules of and Org2: Italy.

    To resolve this problem, Oracle has suggested us to add the following two roles in order to display the user from another organization.

    • User Viewer
    • Organization Viewer

    After comes to connect using xelsysadm, I can able to assign roles administrator of each organization to end users.

    We want API info / how to automate this mission to Admin Roles (Which are available to Organization) to end users?
    We went through the APIs available for IOM 11.1.2.0, but could not find any API related to IOM administrator roles.

    Please suggest.

  • Cisco Nexus 1000V (separate host?)

    We look at this one I have not yet have my head wrapped around it, but, I think I understand:

    (1) you can have 1 or 2 VSM (primary and secondary)

    (2) Vincent becomes an integral part of the kernel for ESX 4 host you want managed by these VSMs

    (3) a VSM will manage only a single ESX cluster.

    My hypothesis is that these virtual devices VSM would live within the cluster, it runs along side VMs however; This diagram (attached) seems to show the VSM on an ESX host, which is not an instance of separate VEM?

    It seems that the benefit to this 1000V is less if you need to buy 1 (2 for HA) or the ESX hosts through a license to support these virtual appliances.

    I understand that correctly?

    Yes, we do like control and packages must be on their own NIC in reality you can stick them anywhere. The amount of traffic that send us via these networks is low (except package when you ERSPAN). On our side there is concern that, if the network is busy the VSM could lose a few heartbeats of the MEC and remove it. Looking at your environment I'd stick control and the package on the natachasery used for the Service Console. That way all your control traffic is isolated from VMK and data.

  • The Cisco Nexus 1000V VSM port group settings?

    I could not find the Group of port settings when executing the VSM in a virtual machine covered in the Cisco documentation... they say just 'create 3 groups of port '.   But, the configuration of VLANS to these pages are not clear to me.

    In the configuration of VSM, you set the VLAN on each network (Mgmnt, control, package).   This means that the VM VSM will be production of marked packets, so groups of port must be set as master / virtual tag comments.

    But, if this is the case, why they recommend 3 groups of ports?  You should be able to use a trunk port group and letting the physical switch the VLAN.  Thus, they rather waiting for assignment of VLAN will be on the Port groups?

    The Cisco config docs give much information on the Cisco command line configuration...  Some may give, or point, the settings on the VMware port groups when using MSM in a virtual machine?

    Hello

    VSM virtual machine generates no marked packets but depends on the configuration of the port group VLAN ID Vswitch to label.  It's done as having evacuated the computer host computer on the vmnic associated the Vswitch.
