How to run Windows Upgrade VCenter with little or no problem at all?

Hello

I have 24 x Servers VMware ESXi 5.1 update 1 on HP Blade servers managed by my VCenter VMware Windows virtual machine that is currently in version vCenter Server 5.1 patch 1 (build 1064983 2013-04-25) as follows:

Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 Standard - 1 x vCPU & 10 GB vRAM

Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Standard Edition (64-bit) (SP2) - 10.0.4000.0

My question is which of the Sub VCenter upgrade version is less stressful or no problem at all:

VMware vCenter Server 5.1 Update 3 has and modules

VMware vCenter Server 5.5 updated 2nd and modules


Note: Since the VCenter and DB SQL are in one place, I model clonedto the exsiting running VCenter server for roll simple return by deploying model when you connect directly to ESXi where the model is running.


Thanks in advance.

Given that the process of updating U3 5.1 or 5.5 U2 is as the same, I strictly recommend you upgrade to version 5.5, in this way, you don't need to upgrade your vCenter again if you decide to upgrade your guests the time later.

  • My wmi file is missing. I am running windows xp home with sp3 addition

    whenever I try to use the windows diagnostic utility or if I try to use any microsoft diagnostic tool always happens the same thing. Sometimes it does not find my wmi or its lack. What can I do to fix this?

    Looks like the Windows Management Instrumentation Service is not running or your information from WMI files are missing or damaged. It is easy to rebuild the WMI information files and replace all the files corrupted or suspicious.

    To solve your problem, stop the Windows Management Instrumentation service, rename the folder suspicious or with WMI, restart it your system.  When the system restarts, the WMI service will automatically start and rebuild the WMI folderand is automatically the content.

    Click Start, run and enter in the box:

    services.msc

    Click OK to launch the Services applet.

    Locate the Windows Management Instrumentation Service.  If the status column indicates that the WMI Service is started (ongoing), right-click on the WMI Service and choose to stop the WMI Service.

    Answered in the affirmative, if requested to stop Security Center and Windows Firewall Services (with stopped services, your system is vulnerable to attacks from the Internet, so do not receive is not on the Internet again until you reboot your system).

    Now would be a good time to check also the properties of the WMI Service to make sure the startup type is set to automatic for the Service WMI will start automatically the next time the system is restarted.

    The Explorer, navigate to the following folder (assuming that your boot drive is C):

    C:\Windows\System32\Wbem\
       
    Locate and then rename the folder "Repository" to something, as you remember, such as:

    Repository.Old

    Restart the computer, and then make sure that the WMI service is restarted automatically and that a new repository folder has been created to replace the one that has been renamed.  It may take a while to completely rebuild the file storage (several seconds or minutes) so expect it ends.
       
    After the reboot, you will notice the wmiprvse.exe Service running in the Manager of tasks and he will continue to run until it completes the reconstruction of the repository.  This may take several minutes depending on your system, but eventually the wmiprvse.exe Service ends and disappear Manager tasks.

    If you then look at the Event Viewer Application log, there may be some error messages like this:

    Event type: error
    Event source: WinMgmt
    Event category: no
    Event ID: 4
    Description:
    Failed to load C:\WINDOWS\MICROSOFT.NET\FRAMEWORK\V4.0.30319\MOF\SERVICEMODEL MOF. MOF by retrieving the file from the repository.

    This is normal because when the system restarts, the wmiprvse.exe process has to rebuild parts of the repository as well. It is a mistake to sequence as shown below. You should not see these mistakes again after the system has been rebooted and catches up and finishes rebuilding the WMI repository.

    Explanations for errors encountered in the case of the Application of visualization of the newspaper the WMI repository is rebuilt:

    Explanation
    Windows Management Instrumentation could have tried to compile the file (mofcomp) a .mof marked for ASR, but compilation failed.
    This is probably due to a sequencing problem.
        
    User action
    To correct the problem, try to compile the .mof again. If this does not resolve the problem, contact the vendor of technical support for the program
    in question.

    You shouldn't need to do something about these error messages and do not see again them after that XP has finished rebuilding the WMI repository.

  • How to use Windows media player with the windows Task Scheduler (7)?

    Original title: why it is so difficult... question of windows media player 12

    You want to use Windows media player with windows (7) Task Scheduler.   We have a pc, everything that appears on the screen is also pumped to our community cable channel, normally a slideshow in loop is the show, however, sometimes via a scheduler interrupt the slideshow to play a video (say a video of our last Board of Directors meeting) and to make videos, ideally the slideshow returns.

    Using Microsoft software, in this case, Windows Media Player v12.0.7601.18150, Task Scheduler 1.0, two things must happen.

    1 Task Scheduler launch a video in fullscreen / top of window.

    2. when the video is finished, wmp is closed.

    Well, 1 works fine.  The Task Manager launching wmp in full screen.  And a framework of wmp switches to allow a session of wmp be on top.

    However, a short time after launch wmp cut the screen down to a smaller version.

    And 2. closure of WMP fails to occur.  He remains on the screen waiting for human input.

    Any input appreciated.

    Charlie

    For "cuts WMP down to a smaller version", right click on the video game (during playback) and deselect ' auto Player size to contain video.

    For number 2, define your point of Task Scheduler task for the "end of task after X minutes" and therefore the value of X.  Then it will kill the instance of running Media Player after a large number of minutes.  So, it will absolutely immediately when the video is done playing, but it will be within 60 seconds and will be at least to remove WMP and let your slideshow be visible again.

    Thank you

    You must declare a variable of type T_CURSOR and pass it to the procedure like this.

    declare
      lOutCursor CURSPKG.T_CURSOR;
    begin
      CURSPKG.OPEN_ONE_CURSOR(, lOutCursor);
    end;
