• Unable to connect to esxi using the vsphere client

  Hello friends,

  I need a little help.

  a 2 5.0 esxi host and a vcenter than VM.

  My laboratory worked well for days, but all of a sudden do not know why I am not able to connect to ESXi hosts with vSphere Client.

  Error: The request failed because the remote server has taken too long to respond.

  Call "ServiceInstance.RetrieveContent" to "ServiceInstance' server '192.168.1.101' object failed.

  Yes, I am able to connect to vCenter server, when it is connected to vCenter and open the console of the virtual computer, nothing shows up, it's a black screen, as if the virtual machine is turned off. It is with all the virtual machines on both hosts.

  1. I thought that it might have to do something with vCenter and I tried connecting to Host individually which I wasn't able to.

  After completing a few KBs on vmware and some articles, I checked the status of the firewall on both hosts. (attached screenshot)

  

  Checked if my computer can talk to esxi host on port 80, 443, 902. all ports are accessible.

  Disabled the Symantec endpoint protection and checked. no positive results.

  Finally, I tried the ESXi web navigation browser host http://ESXi-IP-address which redirects me to HTTPS connection with Certificate error, when I continue with the cert error, loading of the URL guard and the host page doesn't appear as it should.

  This questions are on both hosts. :-(

  You guys can point me in the right direction to solve this problem.

  Thank you.

  Finally things started working now.

  The problem was with the configuration of the workstation's NETWORK adapter.

  The link on the NETWORK adapter speed was set to Auto negotiate (default), but the speed was detected as 100 Mbps instead of 1 Gbps and MTU has been set at 9014 which I defined manually long back.

  Things use to operate in this configuration that I have configured hosts with MTU 9000 and cisco SMB switch default Jumbo.

  the LinkSpeed of 100 Mbps is bugging me, after changing to 1 Gbps (manual setting) the card NETWORK has deactivated, and it reminded me to switch!

  So I put the LinkSpeed Auto negotiation, MTU 9014, stop the two hosts, restart the switch. restarted my computer.

  Since it uses for things were in a normal state.

  Even the question of the console (black screen) disappeared. :-)

• Maximum number of connections to vCenter Server

  Hello

  For vSphere 4.0, the number of concurrent connections to VC is 20 and for vSphere 4.1 is 100.

• vCenter Server 5.5 compatibility with vSphere 4 hypervisor

  I recently installed vCenter Server 5.5.0.5201 (with a Standard license valid vCenter) and I am trying to add the hosts to vCenter data center. I can connect successfully to the host but vSphere displays the following error:

  "The host is licensed with vSphere 4 hypervisor. The license of vCenter Server edition doesn't support vSphere 4 hypervisor. »

  Now I found the slot compatibility matrix and there clearly shows that vCenter 5.5 is compatible with all the way back to version 4 for ESXi. I must be missing something, can someone please clarify the question.

  

  I know that vSphere hypervisor and ESXi Server is essentially the same but vSphere hypervisor is the free version, so is there a difference that I know?

  This happens because you are using a free license on the ESXi 4.1 key.

  "The host is licensed with vSphere 4 hypervisor" means that it is a free ESXi. You will not be able to manage the free ESXi with vCenter.
  

• VSphere from VMware vCenter Server Web Access from the Internet

  I tested VMware vSphere (ESX 4) and tried to connect to the internet for the Web Admin Access VM only.  I can connect the vCenter Server (on Windows) http Web Access features and manage the configuration of all virtual machines. But when I try to connect to an actual vm via MKS, I get an error MKS as ' unable to connect to the MKS: unable to connect to the xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:902 server.»  The xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address of the ESX Server HOST and not the Server vCenter (which administers the host).   I have ports 80, 443, 902 and 903, on the firewall, open to point to the server vCenter Server.  When I'm on the LAN, I can do everything without a problem. Its only when I try to connect directly from the internet through our firewall I get the above error.

  Someone at - it suggestions?

  Andrej770,

  vCenter Server transfers you to the ESX host hosting the virtual machine, and the remote console runs on port 902.

  You want to go directly to the ESX host on port 902 through the firewall to connect to the Virtual Machine console.

  You want to see the pages "Guide de Configuration ESX" 146 for more information.

• Cannot access newly vCenter configuration 5.5 using the client

  Hi all

  I just finish the vCenter configuration successfully, but I can't access through the client with the error message below.

  Error: You are not allowed to connect to the server: VC Hostname

  The accounts I have try are the domain administrator, the service account for the vCenter and my account. All these account have admin on the server vCenter access itself.

  I also add these accounts using the Web Client of Directors-> SSO-> user and groups-> groups-> administrator.

  So far, I'm only able to access the web client using vsphere administrator. Anywhere else I miss?

  Hi Doran,

  When you access Vcentre, if you do not install user accounts, you will need to use [email protected] until you have configured other accounts. The web console is where you need to go to start, the default path is Https: / /: 9443/web-client.

  From what you wrote, you may need to assign specific permission on the server Vcentre itself for these accounts.

  Check out this blog regarding how to set up SSO for the first time.

• Connection to the client with VSphere ESX host makes me download the old version of the VSphere client

  Welcome the OS Version: 5.1.0 - 2013

  Question: When I connect to my guests with the VSphere client it forces me to re-download the VSphere client. As you can see from the attached PDF there pretty much all installed versions. Yet, he's trying to go to vsphereclient.vmware.com to try to download again (which cannot because it is on a closed network). It is meaningless to me, as you can see I have all versions of the installed client. My boss who also has the same installed versions can connect. Actually, I installed 5.1 client so that should be enough. VSphere shows the host to 5.1.0 - 2013.

  Why is this not with my Vsphere client?

  Looks like your Client vSphere is version 5.1.0b (source: Match VMware vCenter 5.1 component Versions |) Virten.NET) and your ESXi host is version 5.1 Patch 4 (KB VMware: Products VMware correlating build numbers to update level )

  You need download the vSphere Client 5.1 update 2 version to directly connect to this host.

• inventory of missing vCenter using the web client?

  I just upgraded my environment to 5.1 and for some reason, one of my vCenter servers shows no inventory by using the web client. I double checked the permissions on both sites and have checked the inventory in the vSphere client and everything seems good. I have two related modes and the other shows, everything is fine. I tried repointing and re-application as in accordance with article (KB VMware: repointing and re-application VMware vCenter Server 5.1.x and components) but all exits show as being already recorded. Any ideas?

  

  Thank you.

  This is the expected behavior for the operation of the Service of the inventory.

  Searches in the vSphere Client works perfectly?

  Take a look at the following kb NOT to DO ALL THE STEPS IN THERE!

  http://KB.VMware.com/kb/2033620

  Only follow re-register vCenter Server with the Service of inventory for now, if the search in vSphere Client function does not work correctly.
