• LeftHand VSA 8 with VSR 7 and SRM U1

  I'm not having any luck get LeftHand VSA ver 8 and VSR worm 7 working with Site Recover Manager 1 U1.  Anyone know how I can download LeftHand VSA ver 7 or find a VSR update which works with LeftHand VSA 8 and MRS?

  I tried the left for the old version of VSA web site with no luck.

  I would switch to EMC Celerra VSA if I could find a download of it.

  Looks like you have a bad version matching.  Here's what you need to use:

  VSA - 8.0.00.1712

  SRA - 8.0.00.1682

  CMC - 8.0.00.1704

  You use these versions?  Looks like the CMC or the SRA can be different.

• Proof of Concept w / ESX + LeftHand VSA

  Hello

  I'll set up a lab for the proof of concept environment. My infrastructure plan is:

  2 ESXi hosts

  Left 2 VSA

  1 box of Physics for the execution of vCenter + Lefthand management room

  1 layer of extreme Networks Summit 24 400 3 switch port

  1 vlan for the esx host / management box

  1 vlan for VSA iSCSI traffic

  Each of the ESXi hosts have dual port NIC so I figure 1 dedicated to virtual machines and 1 dedicated to iSCSI

  This sounds like a good Setup, any consideration you may think?

  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

  This is a test environment - so it depends a lot on what you are testing. I'd rather have 4 NICs - two for the management and VMtraffic - they may be active passive failover to the other on the same vSwitch and then create a separate vSwitch for my iSCSI traffic using the other 2 cards for this network.  If I went into production that I would seek to 6 ports of nic - dedicated NIC for iSCSI traffic, and VM traffic management with resilience and redundancy.

• SRM with Lefthand VSA 8.0.00 (Evaluvation)

  Hello

  I've set up SRM using left 8.0.00 (trial version), but when I try to test a recovery plan I get the following errors.

  When I looked in the CMC I see this message under record feature "don't license for the remote copy (in violation of volume or snapshot...). I'm guessing that the errors I get when the test is this feature isn't available or I did something another fake?

  Someone has tested the SRM to the left 8.0.00 (evaluation version) successfully?

  Thank you

  Ranga

  Yes, I was doing the demo using left and facing a similar question. It seems that this error has surfaced after HP LeftHand resumed :). What I saw is people have success with an earlier version of the left hand.

  PS: I finished my demo using NetApp SIM.

• sphere 4.0 and vsa version virtual machine

  Hello

  I ve got 2 servers dl580 with local storage using hp lefthand vsa.

  everything works fine.

  all of my virtual servers windows are ok and configured as a machine virtual version 7

  My 2 vsa´s run configured as machine virtual version 4.

  is - this important set the vsa´s as the verion 7?

  Thnaks in advance

  for our case, us upgrade it to version 7 of material for our implementation. I advise you to do so just to be "updated" Although there is no advantage because of VSA (which is a very striped BONE down).

• SRM with LHN Vsa installation problem.

  Hello

  I'm trying to configure SRM using lefthand Vsa.

  I installed SRM and SRA on both sites. Now, I need to configure management table on both sides.

  He lifts a statement of error message "cannot find any array of script files. Please check your SRM facility. "

  Can anyone suggest me what can be the cause?

  Thanks in advance

  Do you have a relationship of distance between the primary SBA and the ASB remote copy?  If the copy relationship SRM may not recognize the storage.  Also is there a test VM on the volume which you will be copying?

• vSphere Replication options missing in 5.8.0.1 SRM

  In my lab, I have the following Setup and can not get any vSphere replication to be available within the SRM options.  Single table according to replication is an option.  I looked and looked for a solution and we tried everything I could think to get the options will appear and I had no luck so far.

  vcenter1 - 5.5 U2 windows install

  esxi1 - 5.5

  SRM1 - MRS. 5.8.0.1 (install file 5.8.0 - 2336305)

  vR1 - vSphere replication 5.8.0.1

  vcenter2 - 5.5 U2 windows install

  esxi2 - 5.5

  SRM2 - MRS. 5.8.0.1 (install file 5.8.0 - 2336305)

  vR2 - vSphere replication 5.8.0.1

  I started my lab tests by deploying the lefthand VSA with MRS.  Now, I'm moving on using SRM with replication of vSphere.  The steps I've taken since the tests on the left:

  Devices removed from Lefthand VSA

  Uninstalled SRM and chose to clear the contents of the database also

  Confirmed SRM is not displayed in the Web Client more

  VSphere installed a replication on both sites or set to 1 VM - replication is complete

  Installed SRM on the same servers as before and matching installation

  Market thought the SRM configuration theres no reference and no vSphere replication option.  There's also no mention of any SRM integration when in vSphere replication interface.  Now I remember to deploy the same configuration in 5.1 which gave vR deployment options in RS, but that was then.  Now, says the documentation, you're supposed to first deploy vR, which set up and deploy the SRM.  SRM then detects vR installation and I guess that, in theory, these display options. I checked the permissions and everything seems good.  My lab account is the account I use to save and install everything.  Fine RV, by MRS replication pairs, they do not know that they could work together.  I even reinstalled SRM again and confirmed the installation files have been correct on the interoperability matrix and everything seems good.  MRS. acts just like theres nothing, but the options table replication.  I think theres a version special MRS or vSphere replication, which is necessary for the two to work together, but I can't find any documentation on this topic.

  Help, please.  Thank you!

  Hello

  Since 5.8 SRM and VR are decoupled. The only way to install vSphere replication is for download and by deploying the vSphere unit of replication.

  Once you do this, you should be able to right click on a virtual machine, and then select Configure replication. When replication is set up for at least a virtual computer, you can include it in a group of Protection of SRM. You can do this by going to SRM UI, select "create Protection Group and selecting"vSphere replication"replication type.»

• Best practices... VCenter

  Buenos dias,

  Llevo UN my intentando realize the best practica para el stage as voy a comentar, read y releido documentation y foros, y aun no me claros some basic concepts like that Creo. A worm if alguien me los you can row.

  Tengo 2 Servidores Proliant essential vmware con. Cada uno tiene 44GB RAM y 6 red cards.

  The tests we are doing crazy cabinas office. Estamos con probando P4000 VSA (left) y Stormagic. (OL me will an aconsejar cabinas are physical I designed). Pero este're mi laboratorio.

  Y estas son put dudas:

  1 - if alguien conoce estas 2 cabinas. Cual how you look? El precio creo that are similar.

  2 - Instalo los ESXi 5 en memorias PEN. I have 2 por equipo. Las puedo clonar y comprobe than injerto works perfectly. Lo hago para no disco malgastar is para tener una copia del fair rapida. Is buena opcion?

  3 - where instalar Vcenter? This is one of the set large dudas. If instalo stormagic, be replaced by Recomiendan that part of los 2 servidores tenga a failover donde instale Vcenter haga PC y Stormagic.

  Para esto El otro windows 2008. Instalarlo como sin if instalo Vcenter for windows, no soy capaz configurar solapa LDAP, AD. ¿Pero para that voy a instalar en AD a PC if el driver del dominio goes a ser una las VM than instalare in los servidores?

  Y las VM not las puedo instalar hasta as tenga las cabinas office. (El pez that muerde cola). If lo instalo con el device of suse. El instalarlo como una VM for example el Vmware Workstation en PC, porque luego tambien el instalar el software stormagic en este windows y corre.

  A mi me gustaria instalar todas las VM, in las cabinas office. Pero me is the duda el TR VCenter instalarlo directly in el servidor, y luego clonarlo al otro servidor sin ser virtual cabina, instalarlo en PC...

  Algo parecido me pasa con el Lefthand VSA.

  3 - ¿Mejor VCenter para windows o linux device? Salvando problems than waiting antes con LDAP. ¿Mejor en los servidores o los servidores dentro fuera PC? Case of ser fuera. ¿Cuanta RAM?

  Gracias y saludos.

• cluster this warning in the event of failover

  Hello

  Some time ago, we had a serious failure in one of our groups where the ESXi server as well as the matching node Lefthand VSA failed because multiple hard drive failures. Unfortunately, there was also other issues with replication on the other node VSA, which means that this group was unable to perform certain actions of failover because some VMs were not present on the shared storage remaining.

  All this has been resolved, after the reconstruction of the part of the environment and make some restorations from a backup of all virtual machines are operational, the ESXi servers are operational. But...

  At the level of the cluster in vSpere client is still a yellow triangle.

  In the summary for the cluster tab, there is a message: 'Configuration issues. HA has launched an action of failover cluster UTRVMCL-01 Data Center Utrecht»

  In the tab of the alarm to the cluster, it is listed.

  This may be due to a virtual computer that no longer exists and cannot for that purpose is no longer be restarted on the remaining ESXi server. But it can also be something else.

  How can I clear the message that everything is working as it should? The current situation is the right situation.

  Sorry that I misunderstood the "yellow triangle". I thought that on the upper right of the screen.

  You may be able to get rid of the warning by disabling HA in the settings of the Cluster, he reactivated after a few minutes.

• Need help in the choice of VMware DR SAN technology

  Hi all
  I look at which one is the better choice for DR environment?
  between SAN based technology replication or 3rd party application (Veeam Backup and replication, or VMware Site Recovery Manager).
  my situation is that I have running for most VMware ESX virtual environment as follows:
  1. production environment that is mixed HP DL 380 and the server blades with EMC Clariion CX4 - 500 FC - SAN
  2. planning for DR environment that uses the same model of server, but still think that SAN technology that we could use for replication between two sites. The recovery site is not necessarily to be as fast as the current production and the SAN cannot be EMC
  Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
  Thank you.

  you will need almost the same model in order to achieve the SAN replication by using the built-in function of SAN storage. If this is not possible, you may be able to virtualize the SAN, so that both are of the same type. One way is using HP Lefthand VSA or Falconstore.

• HP P4000 Virtual SAN

  Hello

  Did somebody experiense with HP P4000 Virtual SAN? We don't have SAN storage and we would like to intervene for virtualization, it takes SAN to vSphere. P4000 creates a SAN (virtual) from your local disks? Even if you have multiple hardware servers? I want to use 3 servers, the third in another room or building. I was wondering if anyone uses P4000 for their virtual environment.

  Thank you very much!

  We sold and to implement a large number of projects vSphere4 P4000 and Lefthand VSA (Virtual SAN Appliance) material.

  (1) Yes, it's your local HDD to be an iSCSI SAN that can be shared by other ESXi hosts

  (2) Yes, even if the material doesn't have a Lefthand VSA or enough HARD disk space, you can have it set up via iSCSI to host initial Lefthand VSA is running

  (3) as long as its gigabit with a latency of less than 5 ms, you are good to go...

• Tip 3 - ESX4 running unusual performance of Hung VM - node cluster...

  Hello community,

  I use useful overview to a question we've experienced in our production environment on a cluster of 3 nodes that had a virtual computer running on it.  The virtual machine is used only for printing isolate us applications running together on similar servers.  The technician who was working the issue being reported a number of things, but I wasn't there so couldn't say what has been done.  The end result was that he had to perform a "reset" of the virtual machine, because it could not connect via RDP and the console does not accept the CtrlaltDELETE.  VMware tools is updated. It will be later tonight so I'll tell you about him for more details on the issue and what diagnosis was made.  The problem occurred this morning to 01:30-02:30 am on the 'C' host (host are 1 a, 1 b, 1 c).  Seeing as just two days ago, I reached my VCP, I thought I'd like to look deeper into the problem.  What I found was a bit intriguing.  There is no change somehow to the recenetly cluster other than adding some VM makes.  At the time of the issue, that nothing has been performed we could very well connected in vCenter.  I also logged on to the console and found it EXTREMELY laggy.  This is partly due to the fact that we use vCenter here in our home office and all Distribution Centers to meet the vCenter here so I don't know that it's because of WAN.  Anyway, finding that he was still on which I just decide to look at some statistics and performance counters in vCenter.  What I've discovered, is that between the time where the problem occurred in fact there is a pretty big spike in all activities related to the disk, memory, network, and CPU.  See the attached images.  I thought it was very interesting, and anyone could build a helping hand in perhaps seeing what may of caused this type of spike in any army of this group which would be very useful.  All virtual machines are supplied with 1vcpu and only 4 GB of memory.  We use the Solutions of HP Lefthand VSA for shared iSCSI storage.  Appreciate any comments!

  Given, you have iSCSI storage connected to the ESX servers, it is normal to have spikes on the CPU, disk and network if you use normal NIC (not iSCSI HBAS). When ESX disks on storage iSCSI via NETWORK card normal access, it access to content on the network and uses the CPU to process the iSCSI packages. If you have iSCSI HBA, you shouldn't see peaks of the use of the processor like this.

• Free/busy options high, with no shared storage

  Here is a little history on our Setup. CurrentY we run vmware server 2.0 on centos 5.4 on both servers in a data center to remove. Currently, what we are doing is a manual process to a level of poormans HA. We create a snapshot of the virtual machine (sometimes) and you use rsync to synchronize the virtual machine on the other server. Each server has 2 mirrored disks and disk 1 not mirrored. If each server synchronizes the reader not mirrored.

  I have a key for the company left, I wonder what would be my options for maximum availability with the two servers and HA. We would like to have the opportunity to have HA and FT, but the shared storage is not an option right now.

  Thank you!

  All VMware high availability options require a shred storage.

  You can create virtual shared storage on warehouses of local data (updated mirror network) with the Virtual SAN PHDVirtual, HP Lefthand VSA or StarWind iSCSI.

• Implementation of vSphere LAB home

  Hello

  I'm new to VMware and back to this community. I'm looking for assistance and advice to establish a lab at home environment. The reason why I like to do what I want to get some hands on experience with vSphere and other new technologies.

  I have a desktop computer once I built in December 2009: Basic care as follows:

  ASUS P6X58D Premium Motherboard

  Intel i7 920 CPU

  12 GB of RAM (g Skill Ripjaws Series DDR3 1600 MHz PC3-12800 (6x2GB)

  Sapphire ATI Radeon HD4670 1 GB GDDR3

  Enermax EMD625AWT MODU82 + 625W power supply Powe3r

  Cool Master HAF922 mid tower ATX case

  2 x onboard Marve Yukon 88E8056 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet.

  Running Windows 7 Pro.

  1 x Linksys Dual band Gigabit Router (WRT320N)

  1 x HARD 1 t USB external drive

  I have setup an ESX4.0 Server and how it works in VMware Workstation 6.5.2 build 156735. There is no other virtual machines that I built in either in ESX server or VMware Workstation.

  I would like to set up at least two or three ESX 4.0 server in VMware Workstation. and then I like to create a few VMs that have vCenter server, DB server and domain control, DNS, DHCP server and file server and print., exchange 2007 and SharePoint server.

  I don't have any other high-end SAN or NAS storage or another type of storage. Is there another way to set up shared storage that I use for all my virtual machines that I like the installer. I like to achieve and learn of VMotion, VM HA, DRS, Storage VMotion, etc...

  Is it possible for me to do all this with what I have?

  Thank you

  Also, you can find Openfiler and Freenas as VSA for VMware (virtual storage device), so you can import your VMware Workstation or VMware ESX/ESXi.

  And also you can test ' [EMC Celerra VSA | ]. "[http://virtualgeek.typepad.com/virtual_geek/2009/04/New-Celerra-Vsa.html]" or "[HP Lefthand VSA | ]. [http://h18006.www1.HP.com/Products/Storage/Software/VSA/index.html] "which have 60 days trial.

  You can with the help of EMC Celerra VSA / VMware SRM (Site Recovery Manager) work experience the latter.
