install vCSA single host and manage this host of "inside".

Hello

This is probably a stupid question, but I have found no reference or information about it:

is it possible to install vCSA on a single host, which will be then handled by the same vCSA?

background: there is only a single physical server available.

are there disadvantages with such a configuration, and if there is, which could be problematic? same starting the server cannot, because it does not find the vCSA server to validate its license?

I know that an update manager will not be usable, as the upgrade of the host, all virtual machines must be turned off and the host is in maintenance mode. This isn't a problem, as a manual upgrade of a single server is really easy.

Best regards

Mayr Oskar

I agree with Gortee about the DVS, because that would be a factor limiting.  Since it is a single host it is useless to DVS anyway (unless you need the ability to scrutinize traffic in native mode).  I use the full vCenters blown on my main data centers, but I have a bunch runs exactly as you mentioned (about 60 sites with single host + VCSA + vStandard Switch).  No problems.  Good thing is that you can define the order of auto start since you do not HA.

  • Spring cleaning: re - install everything I need and nothing else

    Hello

    I wonder if anyone can advise me on the order of installation of Creative Suite applications? I currently have all CS4, CS5, all Creative Suite CS5.5 installed applications. It is crowded, and I don't like. And I would like to have CS3 to return, but know that I can't do it in the wrong order.

    I think a big renewal my Mac by doing a clean reinstall of Snow Leopard, then install the following applications in the following order:

    1 inDesign CS3 (but not the rest of the applications in the Suite)

    2 inDesign CS4 (but not the rest of the applications in the Suite)

    3. all applications in Creative Suite CS5.5.

    This sounds like a bad idea? I never use previous versions of Illustrator, Dreamweaver, Photoshop etc but I need different versions of InDesign in order to deal with various clients, register down, etc...

    Any advice would be appreciated - Jeremy

    This seems doable. If you have the Creative Suite, you can install a single application and not the others. Install in the order you listed.

  • vCenter Server and Manager on the same virtual machine and on the same host ESXi update that they manage

    Hi all

    I have a question to which I did not respond.

    I have an ESXi 5 on Proliant DL380 G7 server host. I want to install vCenter Server and Manager Update on one of the Server 2008 R2 VM on the same host. I know it's possible, but my question is how Update manager will provide updates to the same ESXi host it will run on? The update is applied every time host must spend in maintenance mode and power off the virtual computer running on this subject which means he'll kill VM where vCenter Server and Update Manager is running and the update will fail right?

    Is that possible at all or the VCS and UM such as a virtual computer operating point is updated to other guests if you have them or vMotion as VM to another host when you want to update the VCS and UM host is running?

    Thanks in advance.

    It will not work.  You will need at least two hosts.  This way you can vMotion the vCenter VM to another host.  From there, you can use VUM.  Otherwise, you will need to patch the host as a stand-alone host.

    See below for patching a standalone host

    Is it possible that I can start my server managed by Admin? If Yes, what are the steps I have to do to make it viable.

    In addition, which is just how to configure the node Manager autostart administrator and Manager on the same host and server with the single domain.

    NodeManager cannot start Admin and the managed server automatically when you gracefully stop the managed server.

    Recovery setting enabled the crash work in case of a sudden collapse of the host itself. This does not mean that NodeManager servers will automatically start every time. Crash Recovery also works for servers that are started by using Nodemanager only.

    For:

    Error: Exception thrown by the agent: java.rmi.server.ExportException: Port already used: 9899; nested exception is:

    exception java.net.BindException: address already in use

    As says error itself port is already in use. Be sure to use the single port and also check if a process taking into this port.

    TRIED TO INSTALL THE FIBOTRADER SOFTWARE... IT SAYS INSTALL WINDOWS SCRIPT HOST 5.6... HOW SHOULD I PROCEED

    Hello

    I tried your software in vista Compatibility Center

    no reference to it

    http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/Windows-Vista/search.aspx?type=software&s=FIBOTRADER

    check the compatibility of vista with the manufacturer of the program

    and read this:

    If a program is compatible with vista you can try right click on the setup.exe, and then selecting run as administrator

    It is not compatible with vista, you can try running it in a previous operating system mode

    This does not work for all programs

    read the information below

    http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/using-Windows-Vista-compatibility-mode/

    If a program is particularly important to you, there is this way of trying

    but it's expensive, because you must have a previous operating system license to install

    This method also works in vista Home premium, BUT isn't suppoprted by microsoft

  • Access the SMB storage using esxi host and manage with MS server 2008

    Hi there, I know the subject line can be confusing, but I didn't know how to explain what I need in the line object in such a short sentence.

    in any case, I have a storage device SMB, a Promise VTrak M610P, which is attached to a blade server 1U HP through interface channels double Ultra 320 SCSI host. I can't configure the VTrak as a NFS, the only way to access logical drives is connected to a server via the scsi channels and using the operating system to share the drive and the shared disks.

    I would use a server blade with dual ultra 320 SCSI host interface channels and connect the VTrak to this server blade. Then I would install ESXI hypervisor OS 5.5 to this server blade. I want to know is if the ESXI operating system will recognize the logical drives and if I create a virtual machine with MS server 2008 and see if the virtual machine detects logical drives, so that I can share the drives? I hope that I'm supposed to and if I'm not, please let me know what makes no sense, I will do the best to explain it better.

    Thank you

    So it turns out that there seems to be something wrong with vClient when you add a hard disk (virtual disk) to a virtual machine of size greater than 4 TB. Article VMware KB: value of range error message when you add more than 4 TB capacity discs in vSphere Client describes this if you encounter this problem, add the hard drive via vSphere CLI, CLI power or vmkfstools. So this seems to be a known issue on vClient. What I ended up doing was using vClient, creation of hard disk, adding to the virtual machine (size of the hard drive is to 5.45) and when I would get the error message on the DiskCapControl out of reach, I would just click OK and then finalize the creation of the hard drive on the virtual machine. Once the process is complete, I selected the virtual machine and noticed that he indeed added a new HDD size 5.45 TB even if he's complained about it. I pulled to the top of the virtual machine with windows server 2008 R2 installed and was able to create a new disk under windows and set it up as a shared drive on the network. Looks like vClient must be updated by VMware and correct this bug, if it's a bug that I think. Thank you for the help vervoort!

  • All disks in a single host went from vSAN

    Hello

    I recently had a power cut at home. My 3 node cluster came back OK, but I noticed that the vSAN was missing lots of storage.

    After investigation, it seems that all the disks in a single host have been abandoned (all 4 were operating before the incident).

    I tried to reboot the host, but this has not solved the problems I encounter.

    My file server is unable to turn on because of that, I think it was resynchronize components during the power failure happened.

    Because I have data on these discs (my file server), I hesitate to re - install ESXi on the host or do something with the disks

    I am due to upgrade my version of 3 disc format, but that he was reluctant to do this either at the present time because of my data!

    Environment:

    - vCenter Server Appliance 6.0 U2 (build 3634794)

    -ESXi 6.0 Update 2 (build 3620759) on all hosts

    Please can someone advise on the measures I should then carry out?

    See below for information and some screenshots.

    Thank you

    Metadata health check informs me that the disks have failed, but all 4 disks functioned as expected before the power failure:

    Metadata health.png

    Research in the "Virtual SAN health status" column, it shows no health information on disks

    g8esxi1.png

    Comparison to another host:

    g8esxi3.png

    The host CAN display the disks on it's HBA, see below:

    g8esxi1 - storage adapters.png

    Update:

    Managed to find the size of the memory heap LSOM and the command 'secret' to increase

    For my own sanity and to keep track of what I did, here's what I did.

    You can see where I had already changed their values before the default.

    Edit:

    The command VMWare wanted to keep this secret is in their archives here:

    http://vmware1140.rssing.com/Chan-4263175/all_p2889.html

    I do not understand why VMware wants to keep this command of the community? Currently, I am testing now with the two heapsizes to the maximum configuration. My host is starting

    He typed at the origin:

    Dear Simon,

    I tried:

    vsish EI Setup/config/LSOM/intOpts/heapSize 2047

    to increase the heapsize memory LSOM has allocated,

    then did restart, without success on 192.168.240.55,

    He is still unable to establish the Group of disks with memory error...

    And this has changed to:

    Dear Simon,

    I tried the command you gave me in the SR to increase the

    HEAPSIZE memory LSOM allocated, then did restart.

    without success on 192.168.240.55.

  • Can you have a cluster with a single host?

    Hello

    I'll put up a new VMware infrastructure, which includes a cluster with 2 guests in a place and a single ESX host in a second location.  They will all be managed by server unique vSphere.

    It is possible that the second site can earn an additional ESX host at some point in the future.  So, my question is if I have to create a cluster for the second site and have just the single host in it for now, so its ready if we add a second host?  Is it possible to have a cluster with a host, and what are the consequences of this?

    Thank you

    Joe

    Technically, Yes, you can have a Cluster to a single node and if you plan to add another node in the cluster later it makes sense to set up the first node.

    And, both from a technical point of view, but especially from a point of view BAU.  Mulitnode cluster promotion will be less intrusuve there is no additional software to add on the pre-existing main node, therefore you Board change will be less nervous about the piece of work, because it won't change the node pre - that does not exist.

    From a personal point of view my current client runs a number of single-node clusters, in their environment.
