  How the Virtual Machine port group communication?

  Port group is virtual aggregation of ports on vSwitch. A vSwitch can have multiple Port groups which separate the different network traffic. Port groups communicate with vSwitch, and we have physical network maps on vSwitch which establish communication with the external network. We can configure security, NIC teaming, traffic shapping nework political and at the level of the port groups. Once the port group is created, we can assign to vNIC

  How to establish communication?

  Public network > Switch L3 Core > ESXi physical adapter > vSwitch > groups > virtual NIC > Virtual Machine

  Virtual machine connect to the physical map using vNIC coming on Port groups. This is how it works.

• How to find the age of a child and snapshot number snapshot for a virtual machine.

  Hi all

• Take a snapshot of a lun SAN: How do I disassemble the virtual machine?

  SAN is FC 9958E Hitachi, ESX 3.5 update 2.

  I try to take a snapshot of a lun (with a virtual machine in this regard) san and must turn off the virtual machine and disassemble the VMFS virtual machine so I can do that there is no I/O will the lun when I take the snapshot.

  How can I (of) a virtual machine of the VMFS without making the other virtual machines running in the same cluster? I know that the VMFS is a system of shared files grouped campaigns, exclusive property of vmware. Does anyone know the command to use?

  If anyone has any info on this subject, it would be great.

  This is the documentation is 1.5 ESX, released in 2002.

  The command no longer exists in recent versions.

• 'Create a snapshot of the Virtual Machine' suspended the process - how to kill?

  I tried to rename a virtual machine when I received a message from VCenter that "another task is already underway."

  I did some research and found that the virtual machine, I am trying to rename is currently creating a snapshot of the Virtual Machine.  Or - at least the host thinks Yes.

  The snap was initiated by vpxuser about 20:00 in the night a few days - and is still ongoing.  I can't kill him since the VIC when it is directly attached to the host.

  Looking to my data warehouses - I don't see that he actually created the snap, because I see no 0000001 or something like that.   At this point, I don't like, I don't know why he even launched the snap in the first place.

  Is there a way I can kill that process with the help of the console?   It's hosted on vSphere 4.

• virtual machine cannot start, because the snapshot of the virtual machine has been deleted by mistake.

  virtual machine cannot start, because the snapshot of the virtual machine has been deleted by mistake.

  When I start this virtual machine, it prompts: unable to find the 0001.vmdk, this disc is my shot, has been deleted by mistake.

  How to restore this virtual machine.

  You need help with a revival of the 000001.vmdk deleted or do you want to repair the virtual machine so that it works without the snapshot?

  The last option, follow these steps:
  remove the virtual machine from the inventory and edit the vmx file so that it uses the basedisk. Then add the virtual machine to inventory.
  If you need data from the snapshot call me through Skype "sanbarrow" - I may be able to help

• Restore the snapshots on several virtual machines on multiple hosts?

  I seem to have a mental block.  I need to write a script that will allow me to return to the current snapshot for all VMs on a given host.  I really like he must be all hosts in a specific folder, find all the virtual machines on the hosts, then roll them all would support for previous snapshots.

  I took this to the Administrator's guide:

  $vms = get-vm-location (get-file pods)

  foreach ($vm in $vms) {set-VM - vm $vm - snapshot (get-snapshot - vm $vm - name class_start)}

  For some reason I can't wrap my head around it today.  I know that I have all the elements in my head, can't seem to put it together.  Help?

  That's how I'd do.  It seems that the easiest way to understand.

  $vms = get-vm-location (get-file pods)

  foreach ($vm to $vms)

  {

  # Get last snapshot.

  $snapshot = get-Snapshot - $vm VM | Select - 1 last

  # To return to the last snapshot.

  Set-VM - VM $vm - Snapshot $snapshot

  }

  Tell me if you have any questions.

• Transport mode "nbdssl" is not available if the virtual machine has no snapshot

  When I use VixDiskLib_ConnectEx with a vmdk having a snapshot, I "nbdssl". If the virtual machine has no snapshot, I've always had "nbd" no matter what I specified in the parameter transportModes of the VixDiskLib_ConnectEx. I tried NULL, "nbdssl". It affects always unconditionally "nbd" when there is no snapshot.

  Is this expected behavior? If so, I am not able to write safely to a vmdk. During a recovery, I create a new vm. However, there is no snapshot. I want to get back to this vmdk.  How to work around this limitation of security?

  You use 1.1?  nbdssl restores are not supported on 1.1.

• How to access the appservice parent of the virtual machine/machine component in a Multi environment?

  Hello

  I worked on a project of automation of the vra. In Orchestrator I have access to all the information for a particular component VM (for example, vCACVm, vCenterVm, virtualmachineEntity, vCACHost, vCACVmProperties objects) in the multi machine environment. But I have no information for the parent appservice (usually there will be a 'fake' vm as parent for multi machine environment).  For example, if I need to know the virutalmachineID of this parent 'VM' how to do it through vCAC API? I checked around and out to the desperate. Someone from http://dailyhypervisor.com/vrealize-automation-vcac-6-1-building-vco-workflows-for-multi-machine-blueprints/ says vCACEntity.getlink (vCACHost, "ChildVirutalMachines"), which seems the only link between parents and children vms. I certainly know that there should be an easy way to connect the machine virtual parent/child and go to the other, but how?

  Any response is appreciated!

  Concession of thank you for your response. It is the most common way that we tried. However, all properties we don't see anything pointing to the parent app "appservice' of a vm component. Last night I thought I found the answer. A property is shared between 'parent' and 'children': provisioningGroupID; It turns out that the name confusion is actually for "business group" for all the virtual machines belong to this group of companies will have the same value, not only the family of multi machine.

  How to connect sql database to esxi to save all data from the virtual machine

  Please provide steps

  In simple terms, you cannot connect ESXi to SQL. Connect a vCenter SQL (Windows only).

  If you want to save all the data that is contained in your virtual machines, I suggest a backup solution.

• How to install the virtual machine to ISO image

  Rather than burning a CD from ISO images downloaded from each OS you want to build a virtual machine it would be more convenient to use the ISO image directly. How can I achieve this?

  Create the virtual computer with CD player.

  Double click the CD drive in the virtual machine properties.

  Select USE AN ISO IMAGE

  Navigate to the image.

  and also you can refer to this link

  VMware Workstation 12 Pro Documentation Center

  First duty (if the customer has a button for this) eject the CD in the comments, then ctrl-alt to focus the host, right click on the CD icon in the bar area of low right state of the workstation user interface and select disconnect; repeat, and then click edit. Select the image ISO next necessary; reconnect; then click the mouse back in the window of the customer and to know that the next CD is loaded.

• SRM 5.5 - vSphere replication - error: impossible to reverse the replication for the Virtual Machine. A snapshot operation cannot be performed

  Hi all, we have just run a test DR failover of a couple of virtual machines in our protected our failover site and all site swung perfectly, two virtual machines came online and all applications work well. However when we cam to r-eprotect machines virtual, we get some errors.

  One of the virtual machines seems to have lived the reprotect end process, it is still running, but has not moved to 89% for some time. The virtual machine has a couple of grand (a little less than 2 TB) VMDK. slow progress is just a consequence of the large VMDK?

  More worrisome is the virtual machine which don't reprotect at all. It generates an error whenever I click on the "Restore" button (error: impossible to reverse the replication for the Virtual Machine.) A snapshot operation can not be performed).

  
  Does anyone have any ideas as to the cause?

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  Finally got to the bottom of this. The issue was that reprotect SRM work was trying to dispel any snapshots that were taken on the computer object virtual destination in VMWare, but could not clean snapshots.

  The reason why snapshots would not consolidate was because it was snapshots of temporary VEEAM who in fact any snapshot file listed in the VSAN data store. So when we looked through the browser data store, no snapshot file existed in the virtual computers folder. Trying a manual removal also failed.

  To fix this, we created a snapshot of the virtual machine in the original data center (note is the engine to the bottom of the virtual machine), this effect was to get rid of the 'fade' snapshot that was visible in the Snapshot Manager that VEEAM backup had left behind. Once this had disappeared, the reprotect back to DCA worked perfectly.

• How can I move the "Virtual Machines" folder to the My Documents folder?

  VMwareFusion is to put the "Virtual Machines" folder in the Documents folder in the home folder (/users/ [username] / Documents), how can I move elsewhere (as/Library/Application Support)? The user Documents folder is not the right place for automated it system files, it is intended for personal documents.

  
  

  I am running VMware Fusion on OS X Yosemite (and the virtual machine is Windows 7).

  You can keep your virtual machines anywhere you want. Here are the steps to move:

  1 exit VMware Fusion. You can stop first of all of your running virtual machines.

  2. drag your virtual computers folder or the individual VM "files" where you / them. Filenames usually end in ".vmwarevm". There is no need to call the new folder "Virtual Machines" - you can call it anything you like.

  3. Launch VMware Fusion. If the library of the Virtual Machine window is not open, open it (Windows menu-> Virtual Machine library).

  4. ensure that all of your icons for the virtual machine are light gray and say "file not found".

  5. right click on each virtual machine in turn, and select Remove. When you are done, leave the window of Machine virtual library empty open.

  6. in the Finder, drag the icons of file virtual machine in their new location and drop them in library of virtual machines VMware Fusion window. Drop them one by one in the original order, you got, or rearrange icons later.

  7. run your virtual machines as before.

  When you create new virtual computers, navigate to the desired file before the Save.

  IMPORTANT NOTE: If you your folder of Machines ~/Documents/Virtual excluded from backups Time Machine, don't forget to change the exclusion to the new folder.

  Time Machine backups are not reliable for virtual machines. You must have another strategy. (I shut the virtual machine down, compress the 'file', and then move the compressed file to a folder that is included in the Time Machine backups. This isn't the only strategy, but it works for me.)
