  I7 2600 k P8H67-i Deluxe MB and vCenter Server, 16 GB, and ESXi 5 device

  One has been able to run vCenter Server Appliance on this material?

  vCenter Server Appliance does not start

  I run ESXi 4.1 on a server and more office built a user-friendly machine for ESXi 5

  ESXi 5 start ok, installs and runs a test VM ok.

  But after downloading appliance vCenter server and deployed the ovf, the virtual machine will not start.

  I'm reasonably confident that the deployment was OK, as I've done it before on ESXi 4.1 (but on a server with Xeon processor).

  The message of the console is

  I've been through settings and advice re longmode, but just can't get the right settings.

  Thanks in advance for any response

  In order to run the 64-bit clients, you need to enable 'VT - x' in the system BIOS. In addition to this I also recommend you activate "Execute Disable Bit" and - if necessary - disable "VT - d" as well as "Trusted Execution". Once done, save the BIOS settings and the power of the system (power power off) cycle. If this does not resolve the problem, thanks for posting the latest vmware.log of the virtual machine.

• Want to take the certification VCP6-VTC, but I finished the 5.5 ESXi and vCenter Server 5.5

  Hello

  2 years ago I had the training for 5.5 ESXi and vCenter Server 5.5 - I wonder if that would satisfy the requirement and allows me to pass the exam VCP6-VTC?  Or should I stick with the VTC VCDP5 only?

  Have you taken after school.

  5.5 vSphere install, configure and manage.

  If so, please attend vSphere: what's new [5.5 to 6.0]

  It is a 2 day course that will allow you to take the exam VCP6-VTC.

  Otherwise, take VCP550 review and upgrade to VCP6-VTC in taking 2V0 - 621D.

• The traffic between a host ESXi and vCenter Server is secure?

  Dear team,

  You pray let me know is traffic between a host ESXi and vCenter server (vice versa) is secure?

  The VC and ESXi version is 5.1U1a

  Mr. VMware

  Default SSL certificates are installed automatically. However, you can configure the third-party SSL certificates to make the environment more secure.

• client vSphere and vCenter server

  The vsphere compatibility page 14 OS compatibility tables.  I see that Windows 2000 server sp4 has no compatibility with client vSphere and vCenter server.  This means that if you have 2000 servers in your current VMware environment you must upgrade the operating system or?

  Hello and welcome to the forums.

  Information on p.14 means that Windows 2000 SP4 is not compatible with (in other words, you can not install) the Client vSphere, vCenter Server and VMware vCenter Update Manager.

  Specific versions of Windows 2000 Server can be verified to support in the Compatibility Guides.  As long as you plan to run the Client vSphere, vCenter Server or VMware vCenter Update Manager on Windows 2000 virtual machines, you'll probably be fine.  It depends on which version of Windows 2000, you have, but just check the compatibility guide to be sure.

  Good luck!

• on AD and DNS requirement in vCenter server installation

  Hello, I am facing installation stuffs now. It's about installation vCenter server 5.5 under windows.

  I'm just in my lab. He went well when I installed vCenter server device and I can do the remaining animals vSphere.

  But this time I must try to use vCenter in windows. I'm stuck in the 'server URL search"in installing vCenter.

  Is it OK to install the vCenter without AD and DNS server as I do now. If this isn't the case, pls guide me.

  You must at least COMPLETE your vCenter server field cannot be resolved and if you do not have DNS server in your lab, try to configure the host files... and on the announcement, if you do not have Active Directory domain or the vCenter Server belongs to a workgroup, not all features are available.

• The upgrade to vCenter Server to vCenter Server 5.1 5.1 update 1 when the SQL database is remote and vCenter Server Heartbeat is installed

  Hi guys,.

  I'm in the middle of an upgrade to vSphere 5.1 5.1 vSphere update 1. I have vCenter protected by HB and SQL on a separate computer (also protected by HB) I also run Syslog, Update Manager and Proxy authentication on vCenter.

  I've successfully upgraded HB on all 4 nodes (2 x vCenter & 2 x SQL) and started the upgrade components on the secondary according to the •vCenter Server Heartbeat 6.5 server and vCenter Update 1 Installation on Windows Server 2008 when the secondary server is virtual (PDF) http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vcenter-server-heartbeat-65-u1-installation-windows-2008-virtual-guide.pdf

  I got to step 3.c

  3. change the primary/active server role:

  a launch of the vCenter Server Heartbeat wizard configure server and click the tab of the Machine to change the server role for the current server (primary) to the active State and click Finish.

  b using the Service Control Manager, start the Server Heartbeat of VMware vCenter service.

  c using the vCenter Server Heartbeat Console, check that all the status icons on the server: summary page are green indicating that the boot process is completed and protected from all the services are started.

  d using the Service Control Manager, stop the service Server Heartbeat of VMware vCenter.

  As the vCenter service does not start, I'm stuck at this point. As far as I'm concerned, the error is quite logical. I've updated vCenter using the secondary server, and then I'm trying to connect (according to the guide) with another version that breaks down.

  If I continue with the services stop and launch the installer SSO, it is trying to perform an uninstall!

  Did I miss something in this upgrade?

  Hi guys, VMware have finally updated the documentation to reflect the right way forward: https://www.vmware.com/support/pubs/heartbeat_pubs.html U1 6.5 Select from the menu drop-down and you'll see the last date of update for each of the documentation is now 10/10/2013. The guide States now specifically to restore the vCenter database before proceeding with any other measure, this is copied below for convenience: "the upgrade of the main server of the upgrade process further guess upgrading the secondary server completed successfully. Procedure 1 before continuing the upgrade process, perform a restore of the database of vCenter Server, Single Sign-On database, VMware Update Manager database and SSL certificates that were backed up in step 4 on the secondary server. regards Ciaran

• VMAP eliminates ESXi and VCenter Lab installs, thanks to greedy Pirates.

  I run a class of Virtualization Technologies. My college has acquired a subscription of VMAP mainly to use to set up our training lab.

  We run 18 servers Dell T110 with 16 GB of memory.

  We also run 18 desktops Dell with 8 GB of memory.

  Here's how I run the class of 16 weeks (used to):

  Each student would be:

  1. Install a version of eval of 180 days of Windows 2008 R2 on a bare desktop.
  2. Install Workstation 8 on the desktop. Introduce students to the concepts of virtual machines. Workstation is ideal for this.
  3. Bring their own USB 16 GB class and install ESXi 5.0 on it running on the server.
  4. Install the VCenter Server (and client) directly on the desktop.
  5. Create a VM virtual host two additional ESXi
  6. Create an another VM of the VCenter Server virtual appliance.
  7. Start creating virtual machines, Clusters, ect.

  The point is, each student will learn a wide range of features in VSphere. Each student has at least THREE ESXi licenses and need TWO licenses of VCenter Server.

  At the end of the class, the laboratory is demolished (uninstalled all the software).

  The VMAP subscription that my college bought recently announced that Install lab licenses are more offered for VCenter or ESXi products.

  Now, I only use the version of 60 days?

  Is there any way around this?

  I could create 50 or so "student users" and get the individual keys for each. I would then have to use each key individually on all hosts in the laboratory.

  Students enrolled in this class were very happy to try the VSphere environment, something they could not do at home.

  Why not just offer the installation lab keys that have a duration of 1 year. This woul be more long enough for any semester length class.

  Or VMware wants to only close the non academic 'partner' classes offered. The "certified" classes use the same account VMAP of Kivuto however. How do they make their laboratories?

  Other classes in this direction have found that the best way to run the class is to one) ask students to work in pairs or larger teams, so that they can share their licenses; and (b) have them download license keys themselves, as you suggest. They don't necessarily three license keys for ESXi each however, given that each license key has an associated CPU count (2 or 4, depending on the product) which can be used to activate the host several processors. Note that we recently made vCloud Suite available to students in addition to vSphere, which in the past was only available for teachers and staff, so there are various options for which products the students use in class.

  Happy to discuss this further with you help succeed your class.

• VCenter Server installation on a computer that is running IIS

  Someone had trouble installing vCenter Server on a machine running a web server (IIS)?   Documentation indicates the use of a dedicated machine and one not running a web server.   During installation, you get the warrning that detected vCenter web server running, vCenter Server uses common web service for communication ports, so to avoid resource conflicts, use a dedicated machine.  We are talking about only slow or is it possible to interrupt the features of IIS entirely on this machine if I proceed with the installation?  Really the machine in question is not practically no IIS traffic... and we have not really a dedicated machine that is not running IIS at the present time.  Well, I do, but is not in a domain group, the documentation says it should be.   It may work on a workgroup server well?   I would like to install vCenter Server on a system of comments on our ESX 4.0 host, but I'm currently out of storage hardware to create an another VM atm.

  Thank you

  You can run into problems with vCenter service crashing, my Advisor is installed on another server vCenter.  You can install as a virtual machine if the material is a concern

• VUM on Production vCenter Server installation

  Hello

  The person VUM which configure vCenter before me it takes, never installed. I am wanting to install to ensure that my esxi hosts are patched and up to date, but he was eager to know if there was any danger to install on the vCenter server when it is already in production?

  Thank you.

  not necessary if you host in the physical only. You can virtualize it.

  Otherwise, if you don't have a large environment as you can build locally with vcenter. but make sure that the frequency to check and download updates should be smaller than twice or three times in 24 hours in order to avoid any additional workload in vcenter. Otherwise all good.   Good luck.

• The upgrade of our guests 5.0 ESXi and vCenter Server 5 and 5.5 Enterprise Plus

  We are the 4 upgrade hosts of ESXi 5 to 5.5

  We add 4 more guests with own ESXi 5.5 installed

  We are also upgrading our vCS 5 in the vCSA 5.5

  Using Enterprise + licenses

  Question: I'm trying to understand the best way to achieve this transition.  4 guests run about 100 virtual machines and 4 guests we add are clean slates.

  That's what I think... Please help me guys

  1. once the 4 new hosts are installed in the Datacenter clean running ESXi 5.5 I will deploy the vCSA ovf and register 4 guests with the Linux-based device.

  2. now, I have 4 new 5.5 ESXi hosts registered and running with vCSA 5.5 but I still have my old 4 guests with ESXi 5 and registered to the old vCS about 100 virtual machines running WIndows

  3. at this point I think stop on my older hosts 4 virtual machines and remove them from the vCenter Server inventory Windows and everything just their registration with the new vCSA

  4. Will be all my virtual machines or transferred with the hosts if I close them and put the hosts in maintenance mode?

  5. now, I should have all 8 guests registered with my new vCSA.  But the original 4 hosts have yet to be upgraded to ESXi 5.5

  6 move 100 virtual machines to the new 4 hosts running ESXi 5.5 and upgraded the 4 former hosts.

  7. now, I should have 8 guests with ESXi 5.5 using the vCSA

  See you soon!

  Pretty much.

  To make things easier, you can deploy the EGGS for vCSA in your current vCenter (if I remember correctly import an OVA using vCenter allows you to set certain options that should be set to the vCSA shell). After making sure that the vCSA online & configured, you can then install ESXi on all your new hosts, add them to a cluster in the vCSA and put a few trials of virtual machines on there to confirm the network setting is configured correctly. Once it's done (and assuming that the old and the new hosts use the same shared storage) you can stop the vCSA, remove it stock Windows vCS, please write it on one of your new hosts and turn on. You have now two environments (5.0 and 5.5). Next if you disconnect a host from 5.0 vCS (with virtual machines running on it), you can then connect it to the vCSA 5.5. Assuming that the vSwitchs standard networking of the exchanges that are the same name in both environments, you now can vMotion VMs between host 5.0 and 5.5 cluster. At this time, you can repeat with all remaining hosts until everything has been made the transition without service interruption. This will leave a lot of old objects in your old 5.0 vCS, but if that is getting trashed it isn't a big deal.

• vDS and vCenter Server on SAN

  I have a very specific question about it as possible.

  I have 3 guests with no local VMFS (ESXi installed on a Flash cards) and all data warehouses are on the SAN.

  VCenter Server is a virtual machine residing on the SAN.

  SAN access is configured with iSCSI connected through a vDS.

  What would happen if there is a power failure?

  Say that I turn on the SAN first, then try to power on the hosts, the hosts would have access to the San while vCenter Server is still off powerd (and because it's aVM)?

  Thanks for your understanding!

  On VMware ESXi ESX, the vDS configuration is saved on /etc/vmware/dvsdata.db. The file .dvsdata of data warehouses are used by HA and stores some information as the State of the port and its stats.

• Open connections of hosts and vCenter Server Appliance

  We have number of ESXi hosts configured in our environment with vCenter 5.1, far ssh is open to all in order to access all hosts via SSH. Although authenticating the users available but, even then, the issue raises so bound / restrict administrators IPs or subnet of the network for security reasons. Will be the same for vCenter Server Appliance.

  Also can we restriction of IP level for the Vmware Client users, good that now everyone can make the connection between vSphere and vCenter cleint. Please advice

  Hi friend

  Please see below the resources needed to achieve the same on ESXi

  http://www.definit.co.UK/2013/10/vSphere-Security-Advanced-SSH-configurations/

• Will there be traps to vCenter Server installation on a host in a cluster that is already managed by another server vCenter Server?

  I guess that the first answer, I'll be back will be; Why?

  Our Organization has decided that the team of UNIX and the Windows team cannot share a single server vCenter Server that manages the environment. This is why the Windows team has offered a virtual computer in which we installed vCenter Server and then we can create our environment from there.

  Yes, I already read the doco on the creation of a virtual machine via the Client vSphere on an ESXi host we manage already. It's a viable option, but server 2008r2 should again be a picture they have made.

  I watched the vCenter Server appliance for linux, but from what I can tell that would be too small for our environment and is not supported for Symantec Appha.

  Yes, it would be nice if we could all play nice, but mgmt don't we have to so that's where we are.

  The ideas and concerns would be useful...

  Thank you!

  I see - it's just an unusual set of circumstances. As long as the virtual machine has network connectivity, it should work. It would be really no different than having a physical server with vCenter running on it.
