• How to download vcenter server 5.1

  Hello

  I would like to know how to download vcenter server5.1. Whenever I tried it gives me error like you are allowed to download. I need for the objective test.

  Please suggest me how to do this.

  If your company has purchased a vSphere vCenter license, your companies MyVMware admin can give you permissions to download the product, your company has obtained a license.

  That's what talking about the thing super user/administrator. So you won't get randomly download VMware rights.

• How to make a call from CPO to vCO (vcenter orchestrator)?

  How to make a call from CPO to vCO (vcenter orchestrator)?

  Hello

  I am trying to create a workflow that would connect to a vCO.

  I was Expecting

  1. how to create targets for the vCO and

  2. how acess that target.

  Concerning

  Shiva

  1) there is no target for the vCO. We have a target/connection to Virtual Center (vCenter)

  (2) If you want to make vCO calls you could do, it all depends on how the API is structured. You can make calls via web services or CLI, etc.

  If you give your use case it is perhaps more to discuss. If you need an ENH or put something in, you can open a case with the TAC.

• How to create Self Service Portal in Vcenter Orchestrator? times

  Dear team,

  I want to create the Self Service Portal to reset user password in Active Directory in Vcenter Orchestartor. Could someone guide me for this

  Note: I installed Vmware Vcenter Orchestrator 5.5.

  
  

  Kind regards

  I hope it would be only certain types of admins/helpdesk do PW reset because you must connect to the WebView in order to run the workflow... in any case, you can follow this tutorial for a Webview based in vCO:

  http://www.vcoteam.info/articles/learn-VCO/107-create-a-simple-VCO-self-service-VM-provisioning-Portal-part-3.html

  Regarding the other prerequisites:

  vCO must have the ad plugin installed and configured to use SSL when communicating your AD environment. It is a requirement for users created with passwords and resetting passwords.

  When you get to the step of the tutorial for mapping a workflow, you'll want to use the workflow to "Change password". This is a workflow of library Active Directory that are available after the installation of the plugin AD and the vCenter Orchestrator Server service restarts.

  If the file does not exist, you can create simply as described here: http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-50/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.vmware.vsphere.vco_administer.doc_42%2FGUID-C9F6748A-32F9-4712-99EB-3A48BFFDF5E9.html - this is a plain text file.

  How can I install the vrealize of the iso vcenter Orchestrator 6?

  I don't think the vRO Setup is on the iso vCenter more since version 6, because the windows installation has been deprecated.

  You can download and deploy the vRO in the form of separate appliance of the download of myvmware for vSphere page 6.

• VCenter Orchestrator certificates

  If I import a certificate from a vCenter Orchestrator, and then afterwards I implement PKI to give my vCenter a certificate approved, will be my workflow who fail vCenter until I have import the new certificate?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  I think it will be. If you plan to change the cert of the vRO also I think that the order should be:

  -Change the certificate of the vRO. If you are using a public CA certificate that all the imported certificates will be deleted form the keystore that we create new keystore in the present case.

  -Change the certificate of vCenter.

  -Import the certificate vCenter vCO.

• How to Update vCenter 5.5 U1 U2 5.5

  Hi guys,.

  Where can I find good documentation on how to upgrade vCenter 5.5 U1 to 5.5 U2?

  We have 2 sites in related modes, SRM installed but not setup yet, vCOPs and 6 view Horizon.

  Also, we have implemented certificates of domain for all of the sites/services.

  I can't find the doco doco update only upgrade.

  See you soon,.

  Steve

  Hey,.

  His is very simple for the improvement of the 55u1 in 552. Just download the 55U2 Installer. It's a minor update, so there is no DB schema change. You don't need to worry about certificates if it has not expired. After upgrade the same certificates would work.

  Please update your configuration in the following order

  1.) unique virtual Centre upgrade on 55 U1 U2.

  2.) inventory upgrade Service 55 U1 U2.

  3.) client upgrade Web and Vsphere client if you have 55 U1 U2.

  4.) upgrade Center virtual server 55 U1 U2.

  After the upgrade:

  -All the service would work fine

  -The data will be intact

  -Same user and permissions work

  Note: Please do not use simple for the process described above minor update installation for Windows VC. Some important links are below

• vCenter Orchestrator - list all VM that begin with "S".

  
  Hello

  I would list all my VM that begin with "S" in vCenter Orchestrator but, I can't find any script to do this.

  Maybe someone already do this.

  I would do this:

  Lists all the vm.name start with "S"

  But I do not know the syntax of script!

  After, I have the list, I would delete all the vm which differ from Vmname-current date.

  Thank you in advance

  Good day

• Interaction with OpsCode Chef HTTP vCenter Orchestrator v5.1 Update 1 REST API

  Interaction with OpsCode Chef HTTP vCenter Orchestrator v5.1 Update 1 REST API

  I need to be able to use the HTTP REST APIs to run commands on the server of leader during the commissioning and decommissioning of virtual machines.

  Chef Server API Documents

  This requires the ability to use the SHA1 algorithm and also the Base64 algorithm in vCenter Orchestrator v5.1 update 1 to create the header of hashes.

  Method: HTTP_METHOD

  Axes of path: HASHED_PATH

  X Ops-content-Hash: HASHED_BODY

  X Ops - Timestamp:TIME

  X Ops - UserId:USERID

  where:

  • HTTP_METHOD is the method used in the API request (GET, POST, and so on)
  • HASHED_PATH is the path of the query (/name_of_endpoint for the server open source) and/organizations/organization_name/name_of_endpoint took the head or private Chef. The HASHED_PATH must be hashed with SHA1 and encoded using Base64 and should not have repeated oblique (/) or end with a bar slash (unless the path is /).
  • The private key must be an RSA key in the SSL .pem file format. This signature is then divided into strings (of not more than 60 characters per line) and placed in the header.

  The server of crypts that header and ensures its content corresponds to the content of unencrypted headers contained in the request. The timestamp of the message is checked to ensure that the request has been received within a reasonable time. An approach to generate the signed headers is to use the authentication mixlib, which is a header based on a class signature of authentication object similar to one used by the Chief customer.

  Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

  Perfect timing!  I was just finalized this week the docs and test of a package for the Chef Server API:

  CHIEF Server Workflows

  Let me know how it works for you!  Of more if there are other points of termination or I missed scenarios, they should be easy to add.

• The use of vCO (vCenter Orchestrator) to control the use of clusters

  I use Distributed Power Management (DPM).  Suppose that a host is in sleep mode and has been turned off by DPM because it has low utlization on the cluster.

  Then, use picks up once again.  DPM should eventually turn on the host return when there is enough demand for cluster resources.

  However, using VCO, I want to check every 5 minutes, and what use gets above x %, make sure that no host ESXi is always off.

  That way if a host is turned off power and application quickly, spikes and DPM is not enough fast, or if a host fails to power back on when it should be for a reason, I use VCO to check that.

  Someone did he do something like that or have a recommendation on how to impliment it?

  Thank you!

  Of course there is. Here's a sample:

  var mailMessage = new EmailMessage();
  mailMessage.smtpHost = "smtp.domain.com";
  mailMessage.fromAddress = "[email protected]";
  mailMessage.toAddress = "[email protected]";
  mailMessage.ccAddress = "[email protected]";
  
  mailMessage.subject = "Mail Subject";
  var mailText = "This is an automated mail don't reply.
  
  ";
  mailText += "Here could you place your advertising ;-)
  
  ";
  mailText += "Regards,
  ";
  mailText += "Your vCO Admin
  ";
  mailText += "VMware vCenter Orchestrator @ Domain.com";
  
  mailMessage.addMimePart(mailText,"text/html");
  mailMessage.sendMessage();
  

  You can create a script to task with her, but she to code I recentry posted or built a function with it. You are free to choose

• Where to download vCenter Server?

  I can be confused by all of the nomenclature of products and of recent sound change. I downloaded the 5.1 esxi hypervisor. He says I'm in evaluation mode. My understanding is that I can download vCenter Server and use it in trial mode to test all the features. Once evaluation mode ends, I can enter the license key I received for esxi and continue to use it with the vsphere (not server) client with less features. I want to download vcenter server to try, but I don't see where or how download it. What am I misunderstanding?

  Welcome to the community - you can download it form here - https://my.vmware.com/web/vmware/evalcenter?p=vcenter-ops57

• VMware vCenter Orchestrator Configuration problem

  Hi guys,.

  My company has just installed VMware vCenter Orchestrator and we try to create a new host to vCenter server with version 5.0.1.

  Can someone point me to documentation that shows me how to configure the web page in the print screen attached?  Or can someone please tell me what is needed in the empty fields, etc.?  When we try to enter info, we get alerts of service of red light of the vCenter Server tab and the tab startup options.  Both give us a red circle indicating a problem.

  Thank you!

  A free IP address? Oh... No, this plugin configuration is not actually CREATE a vCenter for you, it allows you to configure the vCO to speak to an EXISTING vCenter server you must already have a server vCenter configuration somewhere and you must use the FULL domain name or address IP of this server in this configuration.
