• How to add the data store to a data cluster store

  Hi all

  How to add a data of a data cluster store store. He has vc:datastore opposed but not able to find the javascript for the cluster data store object.

  Any help appreciated.

• 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 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.

• 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);

  }

  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 solved the problem by using the following link

• 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

• Show active paths by the data store for each host

  Try this one, it shows the actual number of "active" paths by the data store.

  foreach($esx in Get-VMHost){  $hss = Get-View $esx.Extensiondata.ConfigManager.StorageSystem
  
    $lunTab = @{}  $hss.StorageDeviceInfo.ScsiLun | %{    $lunTab.Add($_.Key,$_.CanonicalName)  }  $pathTab = @{}  $hss.StorageDeviceInfo.MultipathInfo.Lun | %{    $pathState = @($_.Path | Group-Object -Property PathState |    where {$_.Name -eq "active"} | Select -ExpandProperty Group)
  
      if($pathTab.ContainsKey($_.Lun)){      $pathTab[$_.Lun] += $pathState.Count    }    else{      $pathTab.Add($lunTab[$_.Lun],$pathState.Count)    }  }
  
    foreach($mount in ($hss.FileSystemVolumeInfo.MountInfo | where {$_.Volume.Type -eq "VMFS"})){    $mount.Volume.Extent |    Select @{N="VMHost";E={$esx.Name}},      @{N="Datastore";E={$mount.Volume.Name}},      @{N="LUN";E={$_.DiskName}},      @{N="Active Paths";E={$pathTab[$_.DiskName]}}  } } 
  

• ORA-01124: cannot retrieve the data file 1 - file is in use or recovery

  I'm trying to recover the database in waiting, but it gives the error below.
  
  ORA-00283: cool cancelled due to errors
  ORA-01124: cannot retrieve the data file 1 - file is in use or recovery, the recovery is already said

  "media recovery has not started.
  
  It seems that the recovery was stuck between the two.
  Please advise me how to kill the recovery session that is stuck. because I don't want to bounce the database pending.
  
  Thanks in advance.

  Dataguard and MRP, you run a script before.

  In a standby scripted, a session to RETRIEVE the DATABASE would an UNTIL clause (SEQUENCE up to THAT most likely). At the end of the recovery at this point (SEQUENCE #), he left and stop at the database.

  In addition, the script is such that when a RECOVERY session is active, another session is not authorized to start. It can loop in pending state or go out and do it again the next scheduled interval.

  Apparently your startup script is not strong enough to prevent another session of RECOVERY to start even though the first is active (or it doesn't have a good up to THAT clause and stop, exit, closing stocks)

  What you have is a custom implementation of a database of pending. Without all the details of the script, the 'blocking' between sessions (to avoid a second RECOVER start when one is already running) etc... We can't really do much to help you.
  Your scripts must be standing with status information. It should be possible for you to discover the 'other' sqlplus session which emanates a DATABASE to RECOVER, but not yet out (p. ex... How about a simple "ps - ef |") grep sql' and ' ps - ef | combination of grep ora"?)

• How to navigate the data warehouses to run vmkfstools

  I am a huge n00b at VMAs, vCLI, PowerCLI, etc..

  I'm trying to clone a virtual machine using ESXi. I have installed vMA and I already added to my server through vifpadd server and I already have vifpinit on my server. But I don't know what's next? How to view my data stores so I can run a-i against my VM vmkfstools?

  Thank you

  There are many ways to 'Browse', some of the default scripts canned are not the best but you can basically get you for example need to locate the VMDK (s) of a virtual machine if you already know the data store or the host.

  Take a look at /usr/lib/vmware-vcli/apps/host/dsbrowse.pl

  With the remote version of the vmkfstools, the arguments of the command for the VMDK are slightly different and not what you would be used to fi you worked only with classic Service Console vmkfstools. Within the VMware API defines a path by using the following format:

  folder/anotherfolder/anotheranotherfolder \[datastore_name\]

  So, to make it more concrete, allows that we have datatstore1 and datastore2 and we have a virtual machine named 'myvm' and he lives on datastore1 and there 1 vmdk named 'myvm.vmdk' and 'myvm - flat hard. " Now you want to copy VMDK myvm to datastore2 and a folder "virtualmachines/myvm-clone".

  Now if you went on your ESX or ESXi host, you will see the following for 'myvm"on datastore1

  /vmfs/volumes/MyVM/MyVM.vmx

  /vmfs/volumes/MyVM/MyVM.VMDK

  /vmfs/volumes/MyVM/MyVM-flat.VMDK

  .. .etc

  Now to copy real vmkfstools using the vCLI:

  "[vmkfstools-i \[datastore1\] myvm/myvm.vmdk d thin \[datastore2\] virtualmachines/myvm-clone/myvm-clone.vmdk.

  * The assumption is that the "virtualmachines/myvm-clone" subdirectory exisats and again, manipulation of the file system can be done using sharp also well documented by Dave Mischenko to http://www.vm-help.com/esx/esx3i/esx_3i_rcli/vifs.php

  Once again, it should be well documented in the vCLI guide and canned the additional scripts can be found here: http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/viperltoolkit/viperl40/doc/vsperl_util_index.html

  I wrote also a collection of scripts using the vSphere SDK for Perl which is what the vCLI is written that provides additional automation and we hope to improve what exists in the vSphere API through these scripts that are non-PS: repository of scripts vGhetto

  If I ask that you spend time going through the documentation, once you understand how it works, it's pretty simple to use, Yes, it's not clean and some things may be curious of what some, but hopefully the repository I created will be help in any feature/functions missing in all default canned scripts. The main point that I want to drive a lot of people may not understand is, what you can make in vSphere client against a host ESX (i) OR PowerCLI or VI Java can also be done with vSphere SDK for Perl, it may not all be created within the vCLI, but that's all using the same API exposed , it's just how is pulled up and I have to give him the PS guys, they did a good job of that and therefore the ease of use and understanding.

  I hope this clears up things and let me know if you have more questions.
