Impossible to create RDM on sharing NFS - unimplemented function

Hi all

I have a problem, creating a map of CRUDE device on a NFS share. Get an error "failed to create ramdisk: function not implemented (2490377)' when you use vmkfstools:

/ usr/sbin/vmkfstools z - /vmfs/devices/disks/naa.60a9800050336d755a5a5a3473355659 /vmfs/volumes/VMDATANFS/eea-cl1-rdm/eeacl1-sbd1.vmdk - a free

Tried several suggestion in forums, such as from the creation of inside the right way, but it just doesn't work.

The environment is a vShere 4.1 new installation that has storage NFS was assigned a 2040 of NetApp FAS. For a virtualized Linux cluster we want or need to create a bundel of RDM disks. When I add a disk in the CR of the host (or the customer vSpere directly connected to the ESX host) and select Raw Device Mappings, and then select the LUN exposed, then I need to specify the data store but only can select 'local' and not the NFS share my VM runs on. The store just does not appear here in the list, or I can select 'Save with Virtual Machine' it (the virtual machine is sitting on the store NFS of course).

To test, I created the NFS name lowercase. does not work

Also created a VMFS on the NetApp volume and attached to the host iSCSI hollow. This volume appears in the list to store ROW on the use of VC to add a RDM disk for a virtual machine, also I can use the vmkfstools command line successfully this way.

I think a RDM link must be supported on an NFS share, right?

Thanks in advance!

Welcome to the forums!

You need a number of logic unit or soemthing which are accessible through SCSI (such as iSCSI). NFS is not supported for this feature.

  • Sharing NFS on RDM

    Hello

    I had to get to an interim design and I was wondering how come this is evidence.

    The idea is that the data is accessible by several virtual machines (web server nodes) if needed, however, a node is fine for now.

    I created a virtual RDM (1 TB on SAN) and it mapped to my VM. It is formatted with ext3.

    What I might need to do in the future, is give access to these data other nodes.

    So I thought to do are, when this need arises, is to share this RDM as an NFS share and map additional VMs

    to this share.

    My question is what would be the best solution:

    -Exit ROW mapped to VM1 and create the NFS share on it and map other webnodes on this? Is there a problem with a node directly written and on the other (locking, corruption)

    -Plan of the RDM to a server dedicated to NFS and spread to all the nodes in the web?

    The main reason for the choice of the RDM is that she must be flexible because we don't really know a final design at this point. And the dedicated NFS server could be a hardware solution.

    The pitfalls regarding VMotion and RDM in this scenario?

    Hello

    What I might need to do in the future, is give access to these data other nodes.

    So I thought to do are, when this need arises, is to share this RDM as an NFS share and map additional VMs

    to this share.

    This is the best solution because a ROW of mapping to multiple virtual machines requires a clustered file system and ext3 isn't a clustered file system.

    My question is what would be the best solution:

    -Exit ROW mapped to VM1 and create the NFS share on it and map other webnodes on this? Is there a problem with a node directly written and on the other (locking, corruption)

    It is a good solution.

    -Plan of the RDM to a server dedicated to NFS and spread to all the nodes in the web?

    I think it's a better solution that you can set the NFS server, independent of the web servers. Web servers and NFS servers are often different ways to resolve things for optimal performance. In addition, you can possibly use the LUN for a physical NFS server as well.

    The main reason for the choice of the RDM is that she must be flexible because we don't really know a final design at this point. And the dedicated NFS server could be a hardware solution.

    RDM is a great solution for this.

    The pitfalls regarding VMotion and RDM in this scenario?

    Make sure that the ROW is a "virtual RDM", then you will have no problems. Physics might work, but virtual is better.

    Hello

    Is it possible create Oracle RAC on NFS datastore?   With the VMFS data store, we use VMDK files as the Oracle RAC shared virtual disks with the Comptrollership and multi-writer SCSI Paravirtual, what about the NFS datastore? is the controller SCSI Paravirtual and writer multi function supported on the NFS datastore?

  • shared NFS on ubuntu

    Hello

    I use a ubuntu 10.04 to host the shared NFS for my ESXi nodes.

    I did all the NFS configuration in ubuntu and the NFS has added to the storage of the hosts section in vCenter server.

    When I try to create a new virtual machine on one of the NFS storage, or migrate storage of data from a virtual computer to it, I face an error that says "cannot access the file...". "

    I can browse NFS content, but it seems that it cannot write to it.

    In ubuntu, I gave the authority of Scripture of this NFS.

    Does anyone know the solution?

  • Command to create or convert shared VM

    I use Workstation 10.0.5 and I am doing what seems like a simple task, but I couldn't find any documentation or discussions on how to do it.

    I have a script that uses the ovftool to import an OVF, and then it uses ws t vmrun to start the virtual machine.  However, I would like to change this either to create or convert the virtual machine to be a shared virtual machine, allowing it to auto-start without user.  It's very simple to do through the user interface: manage-> share, but I want it to be without user intervention.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you.

    Welcome to the community of VMware Workstation!

    The command "vmrun" cannot create/convert the shared local VM to the virtual machine.

    But there is another method to achieve to convert the shared virtual machine and auto-start it. The procedure is detailed as follows:

    1. copy your local VM shared the path to a virtual computer, such that copy "c:\VMware\vm1\" to "c:\Users\Public\Documents\Shared virtual Machines\.

    2. open the virtual machine configuration file share 'vmInventory.xml' in 'c:\ProgramData\VMware\hostd' and add lines subsequently shared by the virtual machine (the red lines include your VM and VM ID):

    3

    C:\Users\Public\Documents\Shared virtual Machines\VM1\VM1.vmx

    "3 open the shared VM config file"vmAutoStart.xml"in the same way and add/edit the following lines of auto-start the shared virtual machine, the ID of the object '3' must be the same.

    <_length>1

    <_type>[vim.host.AutoStartManager.AutoPowerInfo]

    <_type>vim.host.AutoStartManager.AutoPowerInfo

    <_type>Vim VirtualMachine.

    3

    PowerOn

    -1

    -1

    GuestShutdown

    120

    systemDefault

    4 restart the host, and then lanch WS, the virtual machine will be shared and auto-start.

  • Impossible to create accessible folders writable on a shared drive because the 'read only' attribute is slways and cannot be deleted.

    I have a windows 7 PC on a network with other computers (running XP earlier versions mainly).
    The PC has a reader shared with a shared folder, for general use in the folder data.
    When I create a directory under D:\data it "readonly" attribute is defined.
    I can't remove the attribute "read only". Tried the usual way using properties and using the attrib command.
    User has administrator privileges.
    Network users can see the contents of the directory but cannot write or save because of the attribute set readonly.

    Ask the administrator to change the attributes of the file to support the writing too. Administrators cannot change the attributes, that too much distance.

  • Creation of model on sharing NFS with ESXi 4.1

    Hi all

    I would like to implement a model of an installation of a Debian 6 Server and the file on an NFS share to copy it if necessary.

    Currently, the creation of the model and the dispossessed on the NFS sharing are not a problem.


    In fact, from the moment when I want to rappartrier on one of the servers copy *.vmdk image take a crazy time.

    During the image upload it took me 2 minutes (stopwatch in hand), this using the following command:


    vmkfstools-i /vmfs/volumes/datastore1/template/template.vmdk d /partagenfs/template.vmdk thin

    Downloading the plug-in image so the following command:


    vmkfstools-i /partagenfs/template.vmdk d /vmfs/volumes/datastore1/serveurXYZ/template.vmdk thin

    And there I download launched United Nations there are now 1 h 30 and it is still not finished.

    Did someone an idea?

    Thank you very much.

    Hi Hekeo88,

    Welcome to the VMware forums.

    Why not create a data store on your NFS share? Here, you'll be in in the conditions standard and it should work much better. It must be on your NFS storage makes sense in terms of performance.

    Good luck!

  • Guest account cannot be changed from Administarator or impossible to create new accounts.

    I'll get around problems with my Windows Vista! The guest account became administrator after my computer infected security tools.  I contacted Microsoft and they were no help, not their problem.  I can not change the name or what type of account the guest account. I can't create a new account, an error message appears that some characters may not be used in the name... is there no such characters in the name.  I can't open Windows Defender or change my firewall settings.  I use this computer for our company and I'm so frustrated with it.  Please someone help! I also had a Sony Vaio, distance analysis that doesn't work anymore!

    See if you can get in the built-in administrator. If you can, then change the prompt to disabled and carefully analyze your computer. I suspect that the machine is always severely infected and the best solution could be to backup your data and do a factory restore/clean install. I'll give you techniques to allow the built-in Administrator and a link to the analysis methods in-depth, but if you can't do the work yourself (and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea), take the machine to a professional computer repair shop (not your local equivalent of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad)

    Make sure that the computer is clean:

    If you have an installation of Vista DVD (not a recovery DVDs), you can start the system with it. Select the default language, then select "repair your computer". Then select "Command Prompt". At the command prompt, type:

    NET user administrator / Active: Yes [press Enter]

    [Note: do not enter the brackets!]

    Remove the installation DVD and restart the computer. Now, you will be able to log on to the built-in Administrator account.

    If you do not have a Vista installation DVD (only have a recovery disk), the computer mftr. may have given you the option to repair Vista (not a system recovery!) system in the diagnostic menu. This menu of diagnosis is the same one where you can choose Safe Mode. Get to this menu by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. If you do not have this option, you can make a bootable Vista file repair DVD in this link:

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    Note: All the Neosmart recovery disk downloads are torrent files. There is a good explanation of the torrent on the site Web of Neosmart files. You will need a torrent as muTorrent client to get the files. Torrent client will download the .iso file with which to create the bootable DVD. You will need to use third-party burning software such as Nero, Roxio or the free ImgBurn (http://www.imgburn.com ) to burn the image .iso image file, not in the form of data.

    Once you have fixed things, log on to the additional administrative account you will be made by the suggestions below and disable the administrator account integrated yet for security reasons:

    Start Orb > Search box > type: cmd
    When cmd appears in the above results, right-click and choose "Run as Administrator" [OK]. Now, you will get the command prompt. At the command prompt, type:

    NET user administrator / active: No. [Enter]

    Exit the command prompt.

    General recommendations for creating users in Vista:

    You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. As XP and all the other modern operating systems, Vista is a multi-user system with integrated system of accounts as default Administrator and comments. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

    In particular, you do not want one account user with administrative privileges on Vista because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult.  It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but there may be more that you want to do. Better not to put you in a bad situation at first.

    The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. As a user Standard is recommended for security reasons and will help protect your computer against infections. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

    If you want to go directly to the desktop and ignore the Welcome screen with the icons of the user accounts, you can do this:

    Start Orb > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
    Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

    Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null).
