Machines MSCS with RDM, how to change the data store?

Hello world
I'm having a problem of displacement of 2 machines with RDM disks.
We have 2 guests ESxi 4.1 with virtualcenter, but no license for vmotion.
This 2 machines is building a MSCS Cluster (Microsoft) (file server) with multiple disks (5) RDM,
for a total area of 8.9 TB. Of course, for use with MS cluster, the WDR is with physical compatibility.
The problem is that the local vmdk (and also rdm.vmdk files) for these 2 machines are on the local data store (a machine for each host) and I need to move them to the shared storage. But if I power off of a computer and trying to change with the ROW data store attached, I get an error because the VMFS of the commune dastore (block size = 1 MB) does not support these large files (up to 2 TB).
I read a lot of articles
http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1031041
http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1026256
http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1002511
and a few other discussions of communities.
In accordance with article
http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1005241
I tried to turn off the machine, remove the RDM, migrate to another data store, and then reconnect the RDM.
There is a big problem with the last point, because I don't know how readd the RDM manually (vmfsktools?).
I want to add an existing drive, but he was in local storage, and I don't want more no reference to the file in the local storage...
According to the documentation of vmware for MSCS, the second node of the cluster disks can be added simply to add a drive existing and selecting the
existing node. If it is no problem of shared storage, but the host cannot read local storage to another host...
Any suggestion to migrate a computer virtual with RDM shared storage room? Thank you

How to create the data store with multiple LUNS

How to recover the data store of VMware using EQL Volume snapshot (smart copy)?

Hi, I use VMware Std 5.1.0b on Dell EQL 6100 series.

I have a question where my datastore (2 VMs) VM are stored in one of the Volumes EQL. I had created smart copies weekly.

I tried to recover by creating a volume "cloned" by using one of the smart copies. That's why I would have 2 exact same volumes in EQL (one is updated and the other is 1 week old).

I can rename them running EQL EQL centenarians. But it doesn't seem to be a way for me to get old EQL volume to vCenter.

-J' have re-scanned the ESXi for databases and I tried to add, but he can't just see volumes

Is there a step I missed that "deletes" and ID that distinguishes EQL-current and old EQL?

When ASM creates stereotypes that they are defined in read ONLY. Make sure that you change this read-write in the first group Manager graphical user interface. Then rescan. The LVM. EnableResignature will not work unless it is read-write.

Combining the VM with files in the data store

I apologize for the very basic question.
I have a few ESXi servers and I need to associate each VM with the related directory inside the data store and each direxctory within the data with the associated directory store.
With the command:
SE connect-VIServer-Server 192.168.1.1 - user root - < password >
I connect with the server.
With the command
Get - vm
I get a list of all VM with the State and the amount of memory, the number of vCPU
- How can I get path for each computer listed virtual, to the related .vmx file?
- How to browse the data store, the list of the .vmx file and for each .vmx file, get the name of the associated virtual machine?
- What manual download to find the emanations of the arguments of the command get-vm and qualifying?
Concerning
Marius

The Get - VM by default displays a selection of properties.

You can ask all the properties

Get - VM | Select *.

or some specific

Get - VM | Select name, Description

You can even access the real object of the SDK VirtualMachine

Get - VM | Select Name,@{N="VMX; E={$_. Extensiondata.Config.Files.VmPathName}}

PowerCLI comes with a data store provider.

It is documented in the vSphere PowerCLI Admin Guide, which is installed with PowerCLI.

With the provider, you can list the files .vmx on data warehouses.

To find the name of the corresponding client, you will need to retrieve the DisplayName of the .vmx file field.

I'm afraid that the CloneVM_Task method you cannot specify subfolders on a data store.

He wants a data store and use the displayname property of the virtual machine to create a folder on this data store.

If you clone a computer virtual called XYZ to the store of data DS1, the clone will be located in the "[DS1] XYZ" folder.

If you want to move the clone to a different folder, you can use the cmdlet Copy-DatastoreItem thereafter.

Machine virtual IOPS / s report, how to display the name of the data store?

Hi guys

I am new to the Foglight community, this is a great tool, and I learn a lot.

Currently I am trying to create a simple table that will show me metric of my VMware environment: Virtual Machine name, Datastore IOPS and data store.

However I can't find how to include data store name in the table, because it is not a measure of the Virtual Machine. I think I need to expand the scope of my table to include VMware Datastore, but I don't know how to do this.

-Mark

Check the options available it seems that it can be done with WCF (the frame behind the Foglight dashboards). We recommend generally customers who plan to build views WCF take adequate training or our PSO people engaged in it.

In any case I can help show a quick example of how it's done.

Please try this on a local/test server.

Go to Configuration > definition >

Make sure that you are in my definition, and click the icon to add a view. then choose from the tables and trees - oriented line table

Give a name to the view, go public and make a portlet/reportlet and apply

Switch to the configuration tab and click the change for the lines and choose a query

Under query, expand the VMware and scroll down

Until you can select the query for virtual machines

And press the set button.

Your view should look like this

Now you must select the columns.

Each column has a value you can edit and there is a button + to add additional columns.

Lets start with the name of the virtual machine - click on the button to change to your default column and choose the context.

Click on the drop down menu to enter key and choose the current line (virtual vmware machine)

Click on the drop down menu to access path and scroll down until you can select the name and then click on set.

You have created a table that lists the names of all virtual machines.

You can click on save. and then click test, choose a time and click the result. A new window will open a show the list you of virtual machines.
From here you can continue to add additional columns, each time choosing the key entry in the current line and the path to the metric/string to display.

For example, the name of the data store.
I change the module

Click the configuration tab and click the icon to add a column

For the column value, that I chose defined context once again, the key input is the current row and for the path, I expand the node for the data store

And scroll until I see the Proprietename

If you save and test you will see the result

Keep adding columns and the data you want, notice that you have arrows that allow you to control the order of the columns.

Note that you can click Show advanced configuration properties

This will give you the opportunity to see the properties of the extra table, such as header - giving you the opportunity to give a more meaningful name (name of the data store, the name of the virtual machine, etc.) to the column header.

You can now go you drag and drop the table edge/report and under my eyes, you will see your new view

Drop it in the main view

I hope this has given you the starting point to build this table.

As I said, I strongly recommend going through our WCF training if you plan build more custom views or hire software Dell PSO Organisation to help build you views that correspond to your need.

Best regards

How to set vm-description/notes and get the name of the data store, where the virtual machine

Hello guys,.
I have vCenter Orchestrator 4.1.1 build 733 installed and it works fine, but I need your help for the following two issues:
(1) I want to put the description/notes of a virtual machine using a workflow. But I have not found any API useful to create this workflow (I don't want custom attributes, see attachment for details).
(2) how can I get the name of the data store, where the virtual machine? I need this name for a workflow.
I need your help.
Thanks in advance!

With regard to the notes of the VM, the following code (see enclosed package) can do this:

var oldNotes = vm.summary.config.annotation;
If (oldNotes == null) {oldNotes = ' ' ;}}
System.log ("Notes of VM current:" + oldNotes);
Now put the new notes:
Start by creating a context
Context of var = new VcVirtualMachineConfigSpec();
Update the annotation with the new value property
configSpec.annotation = notes;
launch the task to reconfigure the virtual machine with the new context
NOTE: This is sure to apply with a virtual machine under tension
var task = vm.reconfigVM_Task (configSpec);

And, in what concerns the VM information, take a look at the workflow of the library: \Library\vCenter\Virtual Machine management\Others\Extract virtual machine information

How to retrieve the path of the data store

I am writing a perl script using the API SOAP Labmanager to deploy several configs in Labmanger. After the deployment of the Config/VM, I want to interact with the virtual machines in each config file. To do this, I use the Perl API of VIX. My problem is that I need to know the path of the data of each virtual machine store as soon as it is deployed so that the VIX commands can be run on it.
The script is multi-threaded. Each thread represents a configuration with a virtual machine.
I know how to list all the warehouses of data for all registered virtual machines. The name of the virtual machine is not unique, so I can't analyze this list for this. Does anyone know how reliable to get the path of the data for a VM store knowing ConfigID/MachineID or MachineId combo? Ideal, I would be able to sometype of search the ID that will allow to obtain the path of the data store.
I'm open to VI Toolkit, VIX, or anything else out there that will allow me to get this info (preferably using Perl).
Thank you.

I think that's maybe what you are looking for:

Method LabManagerInternal.GetConsoleAccessInfo

(public) MKSConsoleInfo GetConsoleAccessInfo

machineId int

);

Parameters

machineId

It returns a type of object called MKSConsoleInfo that contains a VmxLocation value. When I tried through soapUI he gave me a valid path to the file in vmx to the machine_id that I went there

Hi Vincent,.

I think that you have not worked on adf 12.1.3. In adf 12.1.3 you don't have to explicitly create the association. When you create the EO to your table, Association xxxxFkAssoc, will be created by ADF12.1.3 for you automatically. Please try this and do not answer anything... You can also follow the links below.

I was actually able to find a workaround simpler. I just used objects attached within the key and attached to a date function:

Button {

                                    imageSource: "asset:///images/ic_add.png"
                                    onClicked: {

                                        rootItem.ListItem.view.getApp().updateObject(ListItemData.customerID, ListItemData.name, ListItemData.description, datefield3.text, parseInt(ListItemData.lat) + 1, ListItemData.lon, ListItemData.categorySelect, ListItemData.mapurl)

                                    }
                                    attachedObjects: [
                                        Label {
                                            id: datefield3
                                            text: {
                                                var today = new Date();
                                                (today.getMonth() + 1) + "/" + today.getDate() + "/" + (today.getFullYear() - 2000);
                                            }

                                        }
                                    ]

How do you get the path of the data store or the URL of a virtual disk in vRealize Orchestrator?

I need to eager zero a virtual disk while building a virtual machine. I found the eagerZeroVirtualDisk_Task() under VcVirtualDiskManager function, which takes in 2 parameters:
name - (String) the name of the disk, is a path to the data store or a URL pointing to the virtual disk that needs to be inflated.
Data Center - (VcDatacenter) if the name is a path of data store, the data center for the path of the data store. Not necessary when called directly on ESX. If not specified on a call to VirtualCenter, the name must be a URL.
How can I get the correct path of data store given the virtual disk? I intend to iterate through the features of the virtual machine to get the disks.
Thank you!

Actually figured out how to get the path of the data store, and how a drive zeros. In case it is useful to share the code here:

var vimHost = vm.vimHost; VM instanceof VCVirtualMachine

var vDiskMgr = vimHost.virtualDiskManager;

for each disk

var features = vm.config.hardware.device;

for each {(dev var in devices)

dev.backing contains a lot of useful things...

If (dev instanceof VcVirtualDisk) {}

a disc!

var dsPath = dev.backing.fileName;

System.log ("path of disk:" + dsPath);

Data var Center =

System.getModule('com.vmware.library.vc.datastore').getDatacenterForDatastore (dev.backing.datastore);

var vcTask = vDiskMgr.eagerZeroVirtualDisk_Task (dsPath, datacenter);

wait

var waitResult =

System.getModule('com.vmware.library.vc.basic').vim3WaitTaskEnd (vcTask, true, 5);

}

}

Detach a lun using the data store name?

All (or Luc lol)
I am wanting to use the disc to detach function, but instead of passing naa.id, I wish I could pass the name of a data store already disassembled data store to get the id of the naa. I would also like to pass a list of hosts, rather than to all guests who tied it. I watched Alan functions but its going to each host rather than being able to move from a specific host.
I took a slap at him earlier, but I'm a little confused on how to do it.
http://www.lucd.info/2011/11/25/LUN-juggling-in-vSphere-5/
Any help?

With a small change to the functions of Alan, you can use a parameter of VMHost.

In there, you specify one or more ESXi servers where the data store must be dismounted and detached.
