• How to export a snapshot of ESXi 4.0?

  I have a Solaris VM running on a box of ESXi 4.0 and I want to be able to export the instant I have and capture different of the box for a backup in the case of the HARD drive or something else dies. Where the snapshot is stored and how do I move a copy to another box of backup?

  Yes, the virtual machine must be turned off to be in a consistent state.

  After you import - target - will get a new MAC address which may be required to reconfigure the network settings of your virtual machine. In case it is something you want or need to avoid, download the original VM .vmx file using the browser of data store (before or after that you export the virtual computer) and upload it to the imported VM folder. The .vmx file transferred to use you, then to remove the virtual machine of the inventory of the ESXi host and Add again, right-click the .vmx file.

  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 can I create nested VMware ESXi in vCloud 5.5

  Hello

  I how can I create a VM ESXi nested within vCloud 5.5.

  I followed the instructions below, but it does not appear as an OS selected in the database, it creates only an option, but the drop-down list displays the 'other' os.

  http://basraayman.com/2012/03/01/enabling-nested-64-bit-virtual-hosts-on-vCloud-Director-1-5-using-MSSQL/

  Kind regards!

  I just stumbled upon this problem sort of.  I had it working in 5.1 vcloud, but upgrading to vcloud 5.5 caused all sorts of havoc.

  Looks like vCloud 5.5 added a drop down for the esx hosts in the family of the 'other', but it does not appear when you create a virtual machine, you must create it with some other reviews and then change the properties of the vm created for select esx guest.

  If you have added the SQL statements from this link, it will completely break vCloud because there will be two entries in the database for esx and he complain of a unique key.  You must change the database and remove what you added in the link above.  The tables are guest_os_type and guest_osfamily.

  Good luck!

• How update the local copy of ESXi of VMware tools?

  Our two ESXi servers have version 8.0.1 of the VMware tools on the local drive (vmfs/volumes / < ID > packages/5.0.0/vmtools), but the current version is 9.0.

  Right now, I manually downloaded copies of the tools directly to the host of the virtual computer, but how to update local copy of ESXi disk? I was going to just crush the 8.0.1 files, but I noticed there is a manifest file as well, which contains a large number of version numbers and I didn't break anything. Is there a way with support update installers the?

  VM tools are retro-compatible, so it should work. I recommend however, as you will introduce a manual process you need to manage and I did not belive you will have any advantage by doing so. the complexity more you add, the greater the risk of things go wrong.

  I however would patch the hosts to the latest version and using the tools provided with this version.

  For more information on the hosts patching of the command line, see this link below;

• -OS - how host can be installed in ESXi FREE?

  Hello

  Please forgive me, it's maybe a stupid question, but I'm not familiar with VMware.

  According to titled question this discussion is:

  -OS - how host can be installed in ESXi FREE?

  Whit another word, can be installed on the same ESXi FREE more than a BONE and make this race at the "same time"?

  Or is the FREE edition that is designed to run only one Instance at a time?

  I know that most host on the same physical server required Memomy large and more a physical processor.

  Question:

  How many maximum CPU and physical RAM are supported on ESXi FREE? Correct is the FREE load up to 8 GB of RAM?

  TIA

  Antonio

  If I am mistaken, there is no limitation on access to storage in the free edition, other than the restriction that applies to all editions.

• How can I add processors in ESXi?

  How can I add processors in ESXi?  I have a quad-core processor, but once I allowed my server, it only allows me to use two now.  I guess I need another button, or buy some add-on?  I use ESX Server 3i, 3.5.0 123629.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I'm in love with this product!

  ESXi is licensed per socket. So 2 quads counts as two processors.

• Creation of snapshot on ESXi 5.1 fails

  Hello

  Im having a problem creating a snapshot on a certain virtual machine on ESXi 5.1. It fails with the error "file is larger than the maximum file size supported". Now, I've read a few KB articles including "1012384"... but I can't yet absolutely determine the cause of the error.

  VM is a file server with several hard drives.

  Disk1 Disk2 of 40 GB, 1, 9 to, Disk3 1, 5 TB, 2 TB Disk4

  Machine including all disks files are on a single data store.

  Data store: VMFS 5,58, Blocksize 1 MB, 7, 81TB, used capacity 5, 45 to, free 2, 36 to

  I read an article that the 2 TB - 512 b is correct for a file in ESXi 5.1 but that a certain amount of space is required for the load of the snapshot. ~ 16 GB for a 2 TB drive. The 4th disc with a 2 TB size would be the problem?

  I've added a screenshot. Sorry, its in German... but basically, he says that a file (filename not specified) is larger than the size max data store (database not specified).

  Thank you

  David

  ... a certain amount of space is required for the load of the snapshot. ~ 16 GB for a 2 TB drive. The 4th disc with a 2 TB size would be the problem?

  It is probably the case. The maximum file size for a hard of snapshot is size provisioned to the virtual disk, more overhead (metadata), which must not exceed 2 048 GB less 512octets with ESXi versions previous ESXi 5.5 (or VMFS3 data warehouses). To create a new snapshot, actually no matter how much you have on the datatore of free space on the disk (this is to you to monitor the free space to avoid the problems of out-of-space disk), ESXi only checks if the maximum possible size is supported on the data store, to allow the snapshot to grow as required.

• Is DELETE ALL really how you commit a snapshot?

  Greetings,

  I'm under ESXI 5.1. I want to take the current state of my VM and make permanent state, delete all the snapshots taken before. In my view, this is called "Commit" according to VMware. I thought it would be identical to "Consolidate", but I don't it is.

  Then, according to VMWare link below, to validate you just click "remove all" in the Snapshot Manager. This seems really shady and scary. Is this true?

• How can I write snapshot of my data to the file measured every 5 seconds

  Hello

  I try to take a snapshot of my stream once every 5 seconds and write it to a. File LVM. I have problems with the VI "write to a measurement file. The pace at which it writes data to the file seems to be dictated by the 'Samples to Read' parameter in the DAQ assistant. I tried placing the VI 'Write in a file measure' within a business structure and the launch of the structure to deal with a "time up" VI. As a result only in a delay of 5 seconds before the insiders 'Write in a file as' VI. Once the VI 'Write in a file as' is launched, it starts writing at 20 x per second. Is there a way to change it or dictate how fast the exicutes VI 'Write in a file measure'?

  My reason for slowing down the write speed are, 1) reduce space occupied by my data file. (2) reduce the cycles of CPU use and disk access.

  The reason why I can't increase the value of 'Samples to Read' in the DAQ Assistant (to match my requirement to write data), it's that my VI will start to Miss events and triggers.

  I don't know I can't be the only person who needs high-frequency data acquisition and low-frequency writing data on the disk? However, I see a straight road to key in before that.

  The equipment I use is a NI USB DAQ 6008, data acquisition analog voltage to 100 Hz.

  Thanks in advance for your help

  See you soon

  Dohhh!

  The re - set feature has not been put in time elapsed VI!

  Thank you very much!

  See you soon
