• Installation of SQL Server for the virtual Center Server

  Hi all

  We bought 16 x 2 for ESX server CPU licenses.  So, I will prepare a database of virtual server of the Management Center 16 guests. As SQL Server 2005 Express is installed during installation of Virtual Center Server but VMware is recommended for use only for 5 guests.

  So I would like to prepare a database of SQL for VC server, please help me how to make the database to the virtual Center Server. Are there special tables, configuration, permissions. I have no experience with databases then how should I go with it. Is there a guide for it. The ESX Server installation guide explains only create ODBC connections.

  Please help me with this I would be very obliged.

  I know that the procedure is restrited 2 steps (1 and 2) on page 68, but you need to install and configure SQL Server for your business standard (I guess asking the C: or D: and data/newspapers on E :). I'm not going to explain better how to install SQL Server on a server. For the SQL Server database:

  • Step 1: you create a database storing the files on the right disk (with at least 30 GB) with a default database size to the size defined by the "Calculator" (value of + 15% on the line of your choice statistical level).

  • Step 2: On your Microsoft SQL Server, create a user of SQL Server database with the database rights of operator (DBO). The default database for the DBO User is that you defined in step 1. Make sure the database user has a role of sysadmin server or the role of database db_ownerfixed on the VirtualCenter database and the MSDB database. The role db_owner on the MSDB database is required for the installation and upgradeonly. This role can be removed after installation or upgrade process iscompleted.

  The user must be created for your standard business as service account (password never expires) with a long and complex password.

  Other steps in the document are for the ODBC connection.

  Creating the tables is made during the installation of VC. Nothing to do. A characteristic is not to stop the SQL Server agent because some tasks are scheduled in the database to 'compact' statistics.

  For the record, the database is upgraded when installing patches VC creating of new tables, updating of data type or...

• Installation of Microsoft SQL server 2014 on Windows server 2012 R2 Std (Eng the 64-bit environment)

  I am about to install Microsoft SQL server on my server Windows 2012 R2 2014.

  The network consists of three offices of construction, all connected through VPN tunnels.

  There is only one server in each office, all promoted domain controllers servers. (Two servers running Windows 2012 R2 server Std, the first domain controller is running on the Windows 2008 R2 server).

  The installation allows me to have single login in one of the networks of site and access my storage server.

  I have some difficulty during the installation of Microsoft SQL server 2014. It seems that the service will not start.

  I install SQL server by using the domain administrator, such as the local administrator account is deleted due to the promoted feature of DC. Facilities is made from the server that will have the SQL service running.

  Best practices or the settings before installation very appreciated.

  This issue is beyond the scope of this site (for consumers) and to be sure, you get the best (and fastest) reply, we have to ask either on Technet (for IT Pro) or MSDN (for developers)

• Migration of the Virtual Center of SQL2005 database to a new server running SQL2008

  Virtual Center 2.5 Build 147633

  ESX hosts 3.5.0 143128

  Separate server database running SQL 2005

  We replace our SQL2005 server with a server SQL2008. We will migrate the database of VC on him. What are the steps on the side of Virtual Center. My plan is to:

  1. Backup the database

  2. Stopping VMWare services

  3. Migrate the database to SQL2008

  4. Change the Virtual Center ODBC connector to point to the new database server

  5. Restart the VMWare services.

  Is there anything, I'm missing or should be cautious?

  just note that, as of today, SQL 2008, is not a database supported for vCenter

• Migrate the Virtual Center databases

  I'll be moving on my DB Manager Update VM DB, composer DB VM and VM DB license to a new SQL 2005 server, virtual Center. Is it OK just to stop the services on the Virtual Center and DB SQL Server and then migrate the DBs to the new server? And then then recreate ODBC connections?

  Yes, I stopped services.  Also, see this KB, http://kb.vmware.com/kb/7960893 , it may be useful

• The virtual Center database

  Quick question, what will happen if you restored an older version of database virtual Center on the virtual Center Server.

• The upgrade of the Virtual Center 2 update 4 update?

  I am currently running ESXi on IBm blades and they are running version 3i, 3.5.0 Update 2

  We have Virtual Center 3.5 Update 2 installed as well.

  We seek to improve our 3i to 4 upgrade ESX and Virtual Center.  I was looking through the upgrade guide, but there wasn't this listed scenario.

  My plan was to:

  Take c and inplace upgrade of the Virtual Center Update 2 to 4 update server

  VMotion invited out of one of our blades, then update the blade and bring guests.

  Am I missing something?  Are there documents more precise that lists how should I do this?

  seems good... Just get a full backup of your DB vCenter before starting.

  The Upgrade Guide can be helpful as well.

  Also, VMware tools for your guest will require an upgrade as well.

• How to record a custom message / event in the virtual center of the virtual machine

  Is it possible to record a personalized message in the virtual center of the VM?

  I use a vCLI script to reset a virtual machine. I want to report where (PC) this script is launched.

  And it would be great if it is possible to report to the event list or task of the virtual machine that will be reset.

  You can relate from where and which this script is initiated by the following script

  #!/usr/bin/perl -w
  # CustomEvent.pl
  
  #
  use strict;
  use warnings;
  use VMware::VILib;
  use VMware::VIRuntime;
  
  my %opts = (
     vmname => {
        type => "=s",
        help => "Name the virtual machine associated with the event",
        required => 1,
     },
  );
  
  Opts::add_options(%opts);
  
  Opts::parse();
  Opts::validate();
  Util::connect();
  
  my $vmname  = Opts::get_option('vmname');
  my $username, my $compname;
  ($username = `echo %USERNAME%`) =~ /(\S+)/; $username = $1;

• Error 9 42 during the installation of Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Service Pack 4 (KB2463332)

  Original title: 42 9 error

  I tried several times to install Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Service Pack 4 (KB2463332)

  However I only fail to be successful, receive the error code 42 9

  If you can enlighten me as to why this update fails please,

  Hi Antony Montana,

  Welcome to the Microsoft community. According to the description of the problem, you are not able to install the update (KB2463332). Provide the following information:

  ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

  ·         You are able to install other updates successfully?

  ·         What is the full error message?

  ·         You use a third-party security software?

  I suggest you follow these methods.

  Method 1: Temporarily disable the security software.

  Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  Method 2: You can also manually install updates (KB number) by downloading from the Microsoft Download Center.

  Method 3: Follow the steps in the article.
