• VMware Capacity Planning without using an Internet connection

  Hello

  I tried run VMWare Capacity Planner without using an Internet connection. I have run Performance and utility collection of inventory and then I synced data. I was able to see the CSV files in the Outbox. I copied the folder on an interenet connection machine having when I click on synchronize data, it began to send the data to the dashboard. the data has been sent successfully, but when I am logged into the dashboard there is no data view. A message was displayed as not enough data.

  Please let me know if I made a mistake in my approach.

  Thank you

  Pravesh

  can u check with the administrator of your organization, which has admin on dash rights and see if the data is correctly downloaded to the dashboard.

  also can ensure you that you use the same credentials on the two boxes on the client side. simple reason being it might be issue with the property user and group data that are downloaded.

• Capacity Planner

  Hello

  The one you suggest, how can we use Scheduler capability to set the capacity of the ESXi servers for consolidation?

  Is this only allowed for partners and vmware?

  Please suggest.

  Mahesh

  Hello Manu,

  Welcome to the community!

  Yes, Planner cappacity is allowed only for vmware partners!

  Contact vmware or vmware partner! Capacity planner will install on any machine in the network for a month or whatever.

  the data will then be uploaded to optimize.vmware.com.

• vCheck 5 'capacity Planner Info'

  Hey all -

  I recently start diving into the world of powercli and read many messages of Luc et Al. I came across the vCheck script a few months ago and he watched briefly. I am now responsible for coming up with some information about the ability of my superiors and it seems that the vCheck script has some valuable information in it. My problem is the 'capacity Planner Info' I'm not sure what he said. I'd really like to see if this information will help you. I have attached a picture below of my results, but not clear how to act on it. A bit of clarification would help so I can finish my report this weekend.

  Kind regards

  Mark

  In the report vCheck Alan performs a theoretical calculation of the capacity of comments, cpu and mem with, for a cluster.

  The formula is not too difficult to understand:

  • capacity cpu and mem 'real' cluster. It comes to the number of hosts in the cluster under level specified in the settings of cluster failover. For example (I only show cpu, mem is similar):
    • A cluster has 8 nodes.
    • Each node has 4 x 3 Ghz = 12 GHZ cpu capacity. The cluster has a total capacity of 96 GHz cpu.
    • Cluster failover level corresponds to 2 knots
    • The script calculates the 'real' as cpu capacity: 96 GHz - ((96 GHz * 2) / 8) = 72 GHz
  • the average CPU utilization of the cluster in the last 7 days.
    • This example uses the Get-Stat cmdlet with the cpu.usage.averagemhz metric.
  • the number of virtual machines on the cluster
  • the average use of the high VMS using cpu processor page
    • It calculates the average CPU utilization of all virtual machines on the cluster
    • He selects the virtual machines that use more than this average utilization of the processor
    • It calculates the average use of the these albums VMs-use of cpu processor
  • a theoretical value of the use of cpu for a single virtual machine, by dividing the above "average high of virtual machines using cpu processor utilization" by the number of virtual machines on the cluster
  • Finally, it takes the ability to 'real' of the bunch, subtracts CPU utilization of the high VMS using cpu processor of the 'average' page and divides it by the 'cpu use theoretical value for a single virtual machine"

  Note that this is an indicationand not an exact science, of how much capacity you have left in your cluster.

  There are other formulas used to calculate indicators.

• Capacity Planner tool query

  I have following queries about this tool:

  1 can I use several model material for one scenario for example if I need to develop two types of material saying low and high-end and would like to place the result of the VM, is there an available way to achieve this?

  2. If the server under evaluation receive their IP address of the DHCP server and evaluating servers go down during the assessment and it comes back later with diffferent IP how corelate the previous data?

  3. as a follow-up to Question #2, what happens if the IP remains same. It will be able to collect data from the systems being evaluated?

  4. I need to understand the "Averge industry" in detail. What is the basis of filling it and how he is referred to as "Standardized", without providing details.

  First of all. My experience of the Capacity Planner tool is old, then you want to dubble some offsets verify what I say.

  1. you must decide what systems are low-end and high-end. Then, you make a scenario using the 'high end' group modeled on high-end hardware. Then, obviosly, the Group of low range on a low-end hardware. To my knowledge there is no way for the Capacity Planner automatically determine what are the high or low end systems and plce on different hardware models.

  2 capacity planner will then see that as two different systems, BUT, even if you have a DHCP server based Park (which is not so common actually) server and the server has been down longer the term of the lease to configure the DHCP scope the first thing that the server will ask you when it comes is back the permission to use the last him, called IP address. So if that is not granted to a plaintiff again the server will come with its old IP address in most cases.

  3. Yes

  4. the 'average/standard industrial' is simply statistical. For example if the average of 1000 SQL servers out there shows a specific behavior and your SQL Server performed way differently (uses a lot more resources), then you might want to consider why your implementation is so different. To avoid purchase Super material just to accommodate a messed-up SQL Server when you might be happier with a slower material, or less, if you just set your SQL implementation. That's all.

  What operating system is supported for VMware Capacity Planner?

  Capacity Planner requires Windows 2000 or 2003 with a system of operating language ASCII. The practice of VMware mandates us English Windows 200 x operating system as the best.

  Capacity Planner collects since Windows NT 3.51, NT 4.0, 2000, and 2003; Red Hat Linux 8 and 9 Enterprise Linux (ARE/AS/WS) 3 and 4; SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9; 9, 10 and 8 HP - UX 10.x, 11.0, 11.11, 11.22 (PA-RISC) and 11.23 (Itanium); and environments operating Solaris 7, 8, 9 and 10 (Sparc) and 9 and 10 (x 86). -in the FAQ Technical Capacity Planner

  Belongs to VMware Capacity Planner virtual Center?

  N ° as Yattong mentioned previously, there is a feature in VirtualCenter guided Consolidation.  This function serves a purpose similar to the Capacity Planner, but only with the guided Consolidation feature can not involved you an external partner.  If you want to use the Scheduler to full-on Capactiy, you need to associate a VMware partner to do this.  If you use a larger store, the Capacity Planner approach may be merit to be studied.  Otherwise, give the Consolidation guided to try first and see what you come up with.  Then you can decide whether or not to involve partners VMware.

  Good luck!

• Import Performance data in VMware Capacity Planner

  VMware Capacity Planner has the ability to import performance data in data manager or you must collect data from performance via the Capacity Planner software?

  Hello wgmaurerEMC,

  
  

  You can collect data from target of UNIX and Linux machines running the CP shell on each target computer scripts

  rather than run the scripts through the host of collector.

  Please, see page 47 of the CP reference Guide attached on how to implement the manual execution of scripts.

• New material in Capacity Planner

  Hello

  Sorry if these are fundamental questions - his age since I used ability cards!

  I look at is equipment and ability cards models - but all systems are quite old. Do new systems added automatically or is there and easy way for me to add a? For example, I was hoping to use Lenovo X 3650 servers in my assessment of consolidation, but there is no entry of Lenovo, I see. Even former IBM 3650 x models are not suitable.

  No one knows when the capacity planner is updated to include the version 6 of vSphere?

  Finally, for the system settings there are three parameters of the disc for a host ESXi - size, speed and i/o speed, what should be? Am I right in assuming that the size is the size of the storage SAN (in my case 40 to), the speed is the speed of connection (in my case 8 GB FC) and the e/s? (No idea). Or am I wrong?

  Thanks a lot for your help!

• VMware Capacity Planner: Not enough data.

  Dear friends,

  I have faced a problem with Vmware Capacity Planner. I get the error message no sufficient data not collected. But I can see nominative colleacted under the name of the company. I can view the files downloaded and processed inventory and performance. In addition, the report tab is not functional.

  Please do not advise.

  Thank you

  Pravesh

  CP sends always properly deltas of the inventory of what I have seen in the past.

  If you have added servers and they show OK in the report of missing data, then forcing a complete inventory should do the trick. The thing is that you must activate it in the right place. If you do a MANUAL synchronization, you must select the full inventory of strength under modules. If you wait for the next scheduled synchronization, you do it under scheduled tasks.

  Ignore the suggestion of proxy. If some of the data is how to get there, then internet proxy settings are correct.

• Capacity Planner 2.7.2 Linux error

  I have Capacity Planner 2.7.2 installed on the customer's site.  It is installed in a virtual VMware 4.1 computer.  I am so he could collect data from performance on 4 hosts ESXi 4.1.  When you try to perform the inventory or the performance on these 4 servers I received the following error message: "the default shell of connection is not supported.  Can someone tell me what is not set correctly?

  You cannot monitor ESX host because there is no part of the operating system that is supported. You can use the batch ESXtop mode or vcenter (if you have one) to monitor the performance of your host.

• Is it possible to move a Capacity Planner database between partners VMware ID?

  Hello

  I have an installation Capacity Planner, set up by a former partner of VMWare. It is still running and configured to do pretty much what I want to do, so I no need to remove and re-create it. I can not just to create a new company in my dash then stick the database id, he complains as being 'already possessed.

  Can anyone provide a solution to this?

  Mike

  My understanding is no, you can't, you can offer to do the CP using your dashboard of the companies. You can try asking the other company to create an account in this corporate ID and allow you to have access to the data in this way.

  It might also be possible to get the original CP partner to disconnect the collector (ID) and provide you with the collector ID to attach to your new ID of company in your dashboard - never tried so I don't know if it's possible. Most partners are not too to give they collected data of another competitor, so I would not take on a lot of luck of what happens even if it were possible.

• Capacity planner - "Avg hourly" vs "hour Avg.

  Hello

  I test Capacity planner and I want to know what is the difference between "Hourly Avg" and "Time Avg" in the settings of the load profile. And if I can put it where to begin opening hours, with pieces, what time zone is CP...

  Thank you.

  Time of work = 08:00-18:00

  Rush hour = hour which show the highest load

  Time AVG = 24 hours

  CP uses the time zone where the collector machine run.
