Is it Possible to access only bypassed FC HBA to multiple virtual machines
Hello
I have a FC HBA on my 5.5 ESX. Server. It does not support the function of SR - IOV. Is it possible to access this FC HBA across multiple virtual machines?
If possible, please provide as follows to go further.
Kind regards
Aashish
It is not possible. The basic material underlying PCI specification does not have a single shared between several independent operating systems PCI device.
SR - IOV solves by creating the virtual function peripheral PCI, but as you mentioned, that he can't stand not and first of all, ESXi supports that SR - IOV for Ethernet network devices and not for native FC HBA (excluded FCoE) functions.

Limit a group only port to be added to virtual machines with the role
Hello!
We have two 5.1 (soon to 5.5) Vmware ESXi clusters to total 10 hosts. We are setting up the new virtual machines for the Department of finance where they want to ensure that a level 1 technical support cannot access. On the side of the virtual machine, it's easy enough - but we want to make them a regular technician can also put a virtual machine on the portgroup (and VLAN) that these machines will be also on.
Is there a way to limit a single portgroup to be assigned to any virtual computer through roles?
Thanks in advance!
His quiet easily. Go to vCenter.--> Home---> Networking.
Select the Portgroup where you want to restrict users. Go to tab permissions, do a right click and add permissions.
Add all users and groups that should not have access to this and give as no access. They would never know that there

Can I access the guest from the server OS (virtual machine)?
Hi all
Can I access the guest from the server OS (virtual machine)? I mean, I would also like to start and discovers a guest OS (VM) directly in the server as in VMware Server 2.0. I would also like to see the graphic on the server management console to manage virtual machines.
Or do I always have at least two computers? For example, the server ESXi without GUI / frontend access and the client with vCenter, vInfrastructure, blah-blah-blah,...?
Thanks for the replies!
Best regards

You will need the Client or another tool for access (RDP, SSH) a machine separate. ESXi is a very tiny BONES.

Allocate multiple cores of the only host for CPU on a virtual machine
Hello
You don't know if it is possible, but could find is not online.
An application on my virtual machine uses only a carrot and I want to accelerate.
Add more cores on this virtual machine is meaningless, to that effect, I would like to allocate multiple cores of the host that will act as a single core on the virtual machine.
Is this possible?
Thank you
Herman
As already stated above, this is not possible, and you have two options:
1 buy a new CPU with a clock higher;
2. that your application works with multiple processors.

Possible for the host to read the files on virtual machines?
Is it possible for a host read files on virtual machines?
If you can get information using vmrun command, then I think that vmware-cmd command will help to define the variables that can think inside the vmx file. As vmx file is inside ESX server only so that you can shut down the VM and edit the vmx file, then you can register to the virtual machine using the vmware-cmd command.
Thank you

VCB snap only the disk system to a virtual machine.
I use as my ESX 3.5 VC 2.5 backup and Avamar. I do backup with VCB 1.5.
I have a virtual machine with a 20 GB OS drive and 500 GB data disk (linux).
I would like to VCB the only BONES of some of my vm and not others drive much more major data on the disks on the virtual machine.
Is there a way to only snap (a disk) the smallest disk to the virtual machine OS so I don't have to have a disk of temp VCB is huge?
I can't wait to snap 520 GB just to get the 20 GB that I need.
I realize that avamar can filter up to only enter the 20 but it's after the breakup, I don't want to break the 500.
Thank you
You can set the data to persistent disk independent. In this way, that it is not affected by snapshots.
Take a look at http://www.yellow-bricks.com/2008/11/03/vcb-and-independent-disks/ (and its links). This is an old article, but it should still work.

Cannot access 5.3 ACS installed in a virtual machine
I installed ACS 5.3 on a VM machine for assessment. The installation is is well past that I used the settings recommended in the installation guide. All services are running when I spear the 'show the State of the acs application' command.
I'm trying to access the web page through http://192.168.1.199:2002 and it just expires. I can ping the server, and the server can ping my machine.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Server has 80 logical processors, but I can only use 8 cores for a virtual machine
We have a host of ESXi 4.1 with four 10 processors and we want to give a VM 20 vCPUs for a test, but I can choose only 2 virtual Sockets with 4 cores per socket or 1 virtual socket with 8 cores. What is the maximum I can do? I'll attach screenshots so you can see what I'm looking at.
With vSphere 4.1 eight-way virtual SMP is the maximum that you can configure with the Enterprise Plus license. With vSphere 5.1 the maximum has been increased to 64 channels for businesses more (32 channels for the company).

Is it possible to programmatically retrieve the MAC address of a virtual machine VMware
Can anyone suggest to programmatically retrieve the MAC address of a VMware virtual machine.
I need a code for the above features.
Post edited by: AntonVZhbankov
Corrected in Hyper-V to VMware
Now that I have a code in front of me, you can try essentially this:
// MAC Variable string MACAddress; // Get Config Info (hardware) vmConfigInfo = (VirtualMachineConfigInfo)myAPI.getProperties(vmRef, new String[1] {"config"}); //Iterate through devices foreach (VirtualDevice vDv in vmConfigInfo.hardware.device) { try { VirtualEthernetCard mycard = (VirtualEthernetCard)vDv; MACAddress = mycard.macAddress; } catch { } }
Basically what's happening hear, you are pulling all the pieces of virtual hardware and iterate through them. If the piece is a network card, copy the following code will be able to cast an and pull up on the Mac. Otherwise, the cast fails and he is going to move. If you have multiple network cards, you want to add the mac to an array of strings, or something to keep account of more than one.
This code assumes that you have connected and you have a way to make the configuration of the virtual machine property. The function 'getProperty' in the present code referring to my own function, not one in VMWare. If you don't know how to do this, just post back here and I know there are examples of pages out there anyone can post to explain this part.

I have a Dell power edge server with 2 Configuration of disks 1 TB in raid 0
I can install a Win Server 2008 R2 and SQL 2008 R2 on a VD without problem, but I do not see the other disk of TB in option within Windows Server to be used as storage SQL only.
How can I get the two disks to appear in Windows server?
what I want is:
First Dell 1 TB drive VD = Server 2008R2 and SQL on C:\
Second VD Dell 1 TB drive = D:\ like disk storage
do I have to configure the Dell VD another way or is it possible
Thank you
You basically configure the virtual machine that you want on all the available storage (do not forget to keep free space, for example snapshots). -As I understand it - is so that ESXi does not see the storage! This is often caused by the RAID controllers not taken in charge or the RAID issues. Please check if the RAID controller is supported as well as the configuration. BTW. Why do you want to configure RAID0? If you want to create two virtual disks on warehouses of separate data anyway, simply present to ESXI as two separate disks/volumes.

VMware networking help - network bridge / to access the virtual machines form other pc
I have a computer 'server' that had 4 VM launched on it.
I need to connect to these virtual machines, all of which have their own IP addresses. I can ping the server or the host of a remote computer, but must be able to communicate with the virtual machines in the remote/client computerss.
Can anyone offer insight? I tried to set up an automatic bypass at one of the virtual machines
Any thoughts?
Sorry, I'm not sure I can follow you. In any case, what you're trying to do is to configure adaper network of the virtual machine as "Bridged" within the parameters of the virtual machine and then change network card settings in as guest OS:
IP address: 192.168.1.21 (where 21 must be an unused IP address currently)
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Def gateway: 192.168.1.1Preferred DNS server: 192.168.1.1

unidentified network and local access only
We have a wireless connection and our router is realtek. However, our network is unidentifyable! He said that it is a public network and gives local access only. When an ethernet cable is plugged into our computer to the router connect to the local network overrides this and we have local and internet connection.
What is the problem that causes our network to not be recognized? I tried to diagnose and repair and renew the IP address, and none of these work.
Its very frustrating...
Thank you
ChristinaHello CJ135,
Please make sure that your computer is configured toe "obtain an IP address automatically".
Open (run as administrator) command prompt and enter the following commands...
-netsh winsock reset
-nbtstat - rr
-netsh int ipv4 reset
Restart you computer *.
Method 2
If you would please check that you have installed SP1 you Vista computer and on the XP computer you have installed SP3? So that you can make networking 2 computers successfully, they must be on the latest Service packs. Just click Start and right click on computer and go to properties. This will tell you what Service Pack you are running. While windows are open. would you please check the name of working group on both computers. It is imperative that all the computers on your network are on the same workgroup. For example, Vista default workgroup is labeled "Task force" and working XP Group is labeled "MSHOME". So that both computers to interface with success, the workgroup name must be the same. In addition, please make sure that 'everyone' has full control on the folder and the shared folder. If you please you would follow with me as best as possible, I'd be very happy.
Method 3
If you have a 3rd party software such as Norton or Mcafee security, disable temporarily and attempt to connect.
Please check if you are able to connect to the internet. If you please you would follow with me as best as possible, I'd be very happy.
Thank you

local access only - cannot connect to my wireless router
I can't get my laptop to connect to my wireless router, all I get is local access only, but my laptop with windows 7 connects very well.
Hello
Maybe this can help.
Most laptops have a physical switch for the wireless card. Read the manual of the computer and make sure that the wireless adapter is on.
Check the Device Manager for the wireless card valid entry.
http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/net_dm.jpg
If there is no valid entry, remove any entry from fake and re - install the drivers for the wireless card.
Check network connections to make sure that you have a network icon/entry wireless connection, and that the properties of the icon (right-click on the icon) are correctly configured with the TCP/IPv4 protocol in the properties of network connections.
http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/net_connection_tcp.jpg
Make sure that if there is Wireless Utility a utility vendor is not running with the native Windows wireless utility.
Make sure you firewall No. preventing / blocks wireless components to join the network.
Above everything is OK and it connects to the wireless router. Log in from any computer which is, or can be connected to the router with a wire wireless, disable wireless security, make sure that the wireless streaming is enabled and try to connect with no. wireless security.
When the work turns on the Wireless security.
Note * people sometimes make mistakes in writing and retype the password for security.
Another way is to copy in the menu of the router and then paste it when asked of the wireless card.
--------------------------------------------------
I really checked and configured every thing and it doesn't work.
Software firewall application that is not configured to allow local traffic (between the computer and the router is also a possible problem.
some 3rd party software firewall continue to block the same aspects it traffic Local, they are turned Off (disabled). If possible, configure the firewall correctly or completely uninstall to allow a clean flow of local network traffic. If the 3rd party software is uninstalled, or disables, make sure Windows native firewall is active .Jack-MVP Windows Networking. WWW.EZLAN.NET
