• How to select the cluster/resourcepool data store?

  Hello

  as you know others my son, I'm working on a workflow to create several identical virtual machines on a VC-cluster.

  At this time a virtual computer is created like this:

  task = vmFolder.createVM_Task( configSpec, vmCluster.resourcePool);
  

  Context is being filled with the configuration of the virtual machine. vmCluster is a workflow input parameter and contains the cluster.

  It works well, but I still have to specify the data store to store files on a different input parameter, because the cluster has several shared storage units.

  Note also that our clusters have only a single pool of resources, the default.

  Let the user select a data store is not a very nice solution because of possible errors and mistakes (the user can select the local drive of the VMHost, lack of space on the storage selected etc..). But I, as a developer, also can not predefine the storage to use (several storage units, unit of different names etc.).

  Now, what I've been thinking about (and trying to implement) was to get the vmCluster data warehouses or the resourcePool, check if they are put in place for the virtual machine files and if they have enough space for the virtual machine.

  I know how to check the size and which storage are to be used for virtual machines, but I don't know how to get out them of the cluster/resourcepool.

  Can someone help me with this?

  Thank you and

  PS: Is it just me or I really make things complicated with orchestrator here?

  Hi Andreas,

  One way to get the value of storage of data is to use VcSdkConnection.getAllDatastores

  For more information, see here: http://www.vmware.com/support/orchestrator/doc/vco_vsphere41_api/html/VcSdkConnection.html#getAllDatastores

  Personally, I have not played with it, but it seems very powerful.

  There is discussion on the use of xpath in such a case in this topic (to get the value of VMs): http://communities.vmware.com/message/1673575

  Other than that you could:

  -use VcSdkConnection.getAllClusterComputeResource (gets all clusters) or VcSdk.getAllResourcePools

  -in case you work with clusters - each cluster's data store property that returns an array of data for this cluster warehouses

  -in case you use pools of resources, you must check that is the parent of each resource pool and get its data warehouses.

  Kind regards

• How can I get the list of data stores in a cluster data store?

  How can I get the list of data stores in a cluster data store? I mean the command line option.

  Hello

  by command line, you mean PowerCLI?

  If so, you can display data with this warehouses:

  Get-DatastoreCluster-name DSClustername | Get-Datastore

• Download VMDK files from the browser to the Web-based data store

  Hello

  I want to download the virtual computer VMDK file using the browser of the Web-based data store. I know how to do, but there is something I don't understand.

  I have configured my VM with a provisioning. From the VI client, I see that the size of the vm.vmdk is 4 GB.  The size of proviosned is 20 GB.

  Technically speaking, if I download the VMDK file, it should be 4 GB, however, from the browser on the vm - flat hard size Web-based data store is 20 GB... What is the standard behavior? Is there a way to download only the actually used 4 GB?

  Hello.

  This is the expected behavior, and as much as I know there is no work around if you use the browser to store data.

  Good luck!

• How to monitor the use of the Hyperion applications

  Hi all
  We have developed a classical Planning Application in Hyperion 11.1.2
  The application is running in production mode, and now we want to monitor the use of this application, in this regard, I have following questions:
  (1) how to activate the newspapers?
  (2) how to monitor the time of connection and disconnection of each user
  (3) how to check the amount of data entered in a particular week
  (4) how to check that data are entered against how much the faculty members?

  I won't pretend to know what should I know about this subject, but I get this question of a large number of customers. So, here is my answer. There is no right way to monitor who logs and how many times they connect. If you enable the audit DATA, that you can do is to see when a user loads the data and how often they do. This does not match the connection, but planners usually don't connect to display data (which are normally made in EN or SmartView), they connect to load/update of data. With active audit DATA, you can query the HSP_AUDIT_RECORDS table, which is where the audit is stored, and see how many times the user load the data and the last load of data. Is not correct, but it is far more closely than any other method I've found.

  Example of the last connection (really last loaded data)
  SELECT USER_NAME AS 'User', time_posted as 'Last Login Time' OF HSP_AUDIT_RECORDS WHERE TYPE = "data";

  You can use a similar query to count the number of data loads.

  This would also show you what the user has launched it to business rules.

  Another option would be to enable SSAUDIT on the planning application in Essbase (this is done in the Essbase - google SSAUDIT server configuration file). This will create 2 files. The first is a file index or pointer. There will be a line for each record, via a web form or SmarView load. The second file contains all of the loaded data. The first file will tell you that loaded which lines in the second file and what time he did. The downside is that each connection between planning and Essbase uses the ID of the source of data for planning. So, it always shows the same loading data ID and will not be the real of the user who did it.

  Note that users do not have to connect through planning. They can directly connect to Essbase. All financial reports that would be misunderstood by looking only at the planning.

  If you really want the actual load, you really watch the Essbase and Essbase application log files. Would not show you users, but could show you the number of queries, the data loads, etc. You could analyze these logs in a relational table for quick access to the use of the query.

  That's a lot of things to take. Unfortunately, to answer your question, it is not a quick option, "click here."

  Utility to analyze the logs can be found at http://code.google.com/p/jrightlog.

• How to monitor the CPU, memory and i/o on the system

  Hello..
  
  Some body help me?...
  
  1. how to manage the monitoring of the performance of the system and the database during execution of ODI?
  2. how to monitor the CPU, memory and i/o on the system?
  
  TQ
  balleur

  In an attempt to partially answer your questions:

  1. how to manage the monitoring of the performance of the system and the database during execution of ODI?

  Monitor the performance of the application from a commercial point of view. As transactions per minute, or response time or time elapsed for the key events of the company. Monitor the activity of the material such that the CPU usage is not necessarily linked to the performance of your application. Performance should be measured from top to bottom - business first, then the lower levels until you get finally to computer equipment. Only if you get a problem to the next level - response time is too large, for example - you can go through the lower levels to identify the cause and fix it.

  2. how to monitor the CPU, memory and i/o on the system?

  I personally use "sar" on UNIX-BASED or Linux, or rather "CFDCs" which is the system activity data collector. SADC will measure and collect data on activities on CPU, memory, disks, etc. and save them to a file in binary format. You can then extract these measures later for analysis using SAR (sar f sadc_file_name). The benefits of SADC are that it is light (these operating systems measure such things anyway, just CFDC records far), it records everything at once (with the exception of the network), it records the time stamp too for each measure, and you can analyze it later when you want to.

  There are commercial products out there too who do similar work, with additional features, such as the integration of Oracle and the relationship between several systems. TeamQuest is an example, but there are others also. (I do not work for TeamQuest, but I used their product in the past).

• How to monitor the TX and RX on PERFORMANCE for virtual network adapter BASP monitor?

  How to monitor the TX and RX on PERFORMANCE for virtual network adapter BASP monitor?

  I have a virtual network adapter that is created with Broadcom.

  This virtual interface named "BASP eCard" visible on the performance monitor in the category 'Rhythm Pipe' but not in the category "Network Interface".

  This is problematic because the Tx and Rx (bytes received/send in second) is available in "Network Interface" that show physical network cards only.

  Someone has an idea?

  Thank you

  This issue is beyond the scope of this site (for consumers) and to be sure, you get the best (and fastest) reply, we have to ask either on Technet (for IT Pro) or MSDN (for developers)

  What information can I give you or what can I try, thanks!

  Is it really "sort of" loading ie 42% or which is a total failure?

  OK, I have a build that WORKED, now I see what you mean about watching build/deploy the VM guest.

  Here is the solution to my problem: our vcenter uses names with spaces, we also use the domain names for our connections. In addition, each admin password was 'special characters', that I've debugged meticulously by ALL of them and much more. Basically, it did not matter that I have "URL" code things, used new tools or edited different scripts to encode things one way or another.

  What finally gave us successes was to go to a 'clean' Vcenter implementation that

  (a) use/did not require a domain name (not / credentials)

  (b) all had the "BACK original' legal names, IE no spaces, no special characters, etc..

  (c) the passwords contained NO "special characters".

  (because I changed this way, 'URL' encoding didn't work, tried it)

  Moral of the story: building a new, simply configured Vcenter or get one and use it.

  (Note: I even downloaded a new ovftool and tried every way that I could but it did not success)

• VM HA (VM monitoring - response to the failure of data store)

  Hello

  2 ESXi hosts connected to a shared storage. We HA enabled with the default settings and "monitoring VM = Disabled.

  In the case where one of the ESXi hosts running VM1 lost access to Datastore1 that hosts VM1, HA the hang and restart this computer on the other host?

  If this isn't the case, it will be when the virtual machine monitoring is enabled? and if we have more than 10 guests, how does know where the relative data store is still active, I mean on what host?

  Kind regards

  Monitoring of virtual machine will restart a virtual machine if HA detects more VMtools beating heart, but also the network IO and storage to the virtual machine.

  If a host loses access to a data store that HA is concerned this depends on which version of vSphere is used and how to access that is lost (ODA or PDL - see details here VMware KB: loss of the device (PDL) Permanent and All - paths - Down (APD) in vSphere 5.x ).  If running vSphere 6, HA now has a feature (VM component Protection) which will restart all virtual machines affected by ODA or PDL on a host that is not affected. If using earlier versions of vSphere even with VM followed the active user intervention will be necessary since VM monitoring only restarts the virtual machine (and not on a new host) (vSphere5.1 storage improvements & #8211;) Part 4: All roads down (APD).

• How to remove an extension of data store (while keeping the files)?

  Hello world

  I am looking for a way to move/delete an extension of my single data store. My data store consists of 2 extends from ~ 150 GB each. The data on this subject would be inserted in the Go ~ 150 remaining.

  Is this possible? If yes how? ESXi automatically rearrange the data to avoid losing data while dropping an extension?
  
  

  Thank you

  It is not possible to remove a measure and keep the original data store.  You must move your data, delete the data store and then re-create.
