ISCSI software issues

I think I'm loing my mind and I forgot a few basic things that if someone can update it please my mind that I can't find it in any documentation?http://communities.vmware.com/images/emoticons/confused.gif

(1) different iSCSI targets how can you use simultaneously with the initator of integrated iSCSI vkernel?  This is true for ESX 3.0 and 3.5.

(2) if I run HBA iSCSI;  can I still use software iSCSI?  For some reason, I stuck it in my mind that I can't do this (it is hardware or software... can't do both at the same time).

Thank you all!http://communities.vmware.com/images/emoticons/grin.gif

(1) 64 targets

(2) use you software initiator or hardware initiator, not both

  • The upgrade to ESXi 4.1 with storage iSCSI software to ESXi 5.5

    I intend to upgrade ESXi 4.1 with which I have attached to ESXi 5.5 iSCSI software storage

    I've updated all my guests who were on the SAN storage with no problems.

    I would like to know that if it there's nothing I should take care before I update the host connected iSCSI to ESXi 5.5, as for the hosts with SAN attached storage I made to remove the cables of SAN before upgrading the host.

    Also, if all known problems, you will be informed during the upgrade to ESXi 4.1 to ESXi 5.5 with iSCSI Software storage, please let me know?

    If there is no different process to upgrade coz in ESXi 4.1 I do not see this link ports of iSCSI vmkernel ports software iSCSI but I know in ESXi5.5 we have to or I just launch a procedure of standard upgrade via the Update Manager and everything will be taken care?

    Thanks in advance

    With ESXi prior to version 5, linking ports had to be done via command line. However, if it has been configured correctly, you should be able to upgrade to ESXi 5.5 (assuming that the host has not been previously updated since version 3). BTW. the last time that I disconnected the host of storage for an upgrade has been with ESX 3.0.

  • Definition of adapters additional iSCSI Software

    My setup is two VMware ESXi 4.1 servers that are grouped together. I have installed software iSCSI adapter and installation on one of my servers in VMware ESXi 4.1. It works fine and I can access the two servers SAN.

    Now I want to create a second software iSCSI adapter. Is this possible? I tried, but were incapable of success.

    Any ideas on what I can do wrong?

    Thank you

    You will not be able to create more than one iscsi software. If you want to connect to a diiferent storage you can do using this iSCSI adapter.

  • initator iSCSI Software

    Hello

    is there a way to activate the Initator ISCSI software on a host ESXi 4.1?

    I was playing arround with the orders-Get /-Set-VMHostHba, but it dosen´t work.

    Another problem is that I identify the number of the vmhba cause I m using models of different hardware, I tried the following command:

    $iscsi = get-VMHostHba - VMHost $vmHost | where {$_.} {Model - like "adapter software iSCSI"} | Select device but $iscsi always returns "null".

    It would be great if sombody can help me this two probs bit.

    Thanks in advance

    Odd, works for me.

    Have you made a

    Get-VMHostStorage $vmHost | Set-VMHostStorage -SoftwareIScsiEnabled $true
    

    to enable iScsi?

    What is this returns everything that said "IScsiHbaImpl"?

    Get-VMHostHba -VMHost $vmHost | %{$_.GetType().Name}
    

    Do you see an HBA with a status of "independent"?

    Get-VMHostHba -VMHost $vmHost | Select Name,Status

  • model 2009 ThinkPad SL300 and system/software issues

    Nice place, have you all here... I found through a Google search.

    I just bought a ThinkPad SL300 under XP Pro opportunity.  It is a unit of work/Office who has been assigned to a guy who later decided that he wanted a Mac for a short period.  After that, he was sitting on the shelf in a closet of equipment for nearly a year.  Generally, I think that the Lenova is correct but it doesn't have many questions.

    First of all, the guy who put it in place user names in his name, and one on behalf of her child.  I was able to remove these names of users through the Control Panel, but when I look at the tree DOS systems using a right click / Explore everything I still see them.  And I'm unable to edit or delete user names.  And when I try to change them I get a message from file system.  So it appears their usernames are integrated in the system tree somewhow BACK.

    Then my own name appears on the login screen and if I'm using the control panel and administrative tools, but when I right click and see all my name does not appear in the tree.  Strange.

    Software: when I installed my software of MS Office 2003 installed and runs, but under the name of the child - even if I went into the admin tools and changed this user name.  And when I click on help / about it shows such software that saved the child.

    My first question: How can I change the name in the tree of the system (C:\)?

    Then, the Office 2003 software seems to have installed fine. Word, Excel, MS Office Outlook all load and run.  I guess that I don't care if he says Jethro Bodine as long as it works...

    Finally, about MS Office Outlook, when I've quand j' ai importe imported my contacts they load in the Contacts folder and the list appears when I click on Contacts.

    However, when I click on New to create a new message, and then click to select a recipient, the selection window opens and is empty - not a contact to be seen.

    Where the contacts? I suspect it's a matter of file location in the perspective to implement, but I can't find it and correct using the options.

    An overview of these issues will be appreciated.  If it comes to push and push, I guess I could just reformat the HD and start over.  If it becomes necessary, I want to do before I'm too invested in the system.

    Thanks in advance,
    Rick

    Hi and welcome to the forum!

    Shut down your system, turn it on and press the blue button in the upper left when the thinkpad logo appears, follow this guide step 5 thereafter:- http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-70803

    The whole process is pretty self-explanatory. This will again put your SL to factory State, but it will work only if the hidden recovery partition is always kept on the computer by the owner previous, also bare in mind that everything will be removed from the system during the recovery process.

    It will be useful.

  • iSCSI iSCSI Software adapter or Broadcom adapter?

    This is a bit of follow up a thread on a previous post. But I noticed that my BL490c G6 5 hosts have a software adapter and Broadcom iSCSI adapt. Although I have nothing under Broadcom cards.

    Is there a difference in performance between these two? In my head, material should be better than software, but it seems software as default.

    I found this KB, indicating he may be some Fiddlers involved to get ESX to use Broadcom cards, but is it useful?

    http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1025644

    The iSCSI SAN is a StorageWorks P4300 G2.

    The BCM5709 equivalent and can slightly reduce the amount of work the CPU has to do, but does not support Jumbo Frames.

    If you are network switches or a table do not support frames then using the capabilities of unloading of these NICs is good.

    If frames Jumbo is supported by the two switches and table so it is best to use the iSCSI HBA software.

  • Add NIC initiator iSCSI Software

    Hello

    I already have a configuration iSCSI operating with a single NETWORK adapter on a host computer. I have a spare NETWORK on the host card, and I thought I could use it to increase the performance against the iSCSI storage. The storage is configured with aggregation of links (802.11ag).

    1 will be the two network cards increases the bandwidth against iSCSI, or it is used only for reasons of redundancy?

    2 is it better to use two vSwitches with a NETWORK card each, or should I use a vSwitch with two network adapters and ports link?

    3. can I just add the additional network configuration without doing anything to the initiator of the software, or do I have to disable-> the reconfig to networking-> re - activate the software initiator?

    I would also have a look at:

    http://virtualgeek.typepad.com/virtual_geek/2009/09/a-multivendor-post-on-using-iSCSI-with-VMware-vSphere.html

    (1) two NIC in a sandwich configuration balance the load pretty well.

    (2) I use a switch with two NIC, then you get annoying alerts for link redundancy and centralized management of the switch.

    (3) see the link. You need to set up an active / disabled and disabled / Active method for each load balancer vmkernel port. You will also need to link the port with the software iSCSI adapter vmkernel.

    Kind regards

  • When to use the ms iscsi software adapter

    When should I use a vmware disk or using ms iscsi initiator software to point to volumes?  People will usually switch to a certain size of disk?

    Hello.

    2 TB - 512 bytes is where you should start thinking about your options.  If you want a VMFS volume larger than 2 TB - 512 bytes, then you must watch the scopes or dynamic disk inside Windows options.  One of the biggest advantages of using the initiator iSCSI MS is that it is similar to the use of RDM - you can move them around much easier than with VMDK.  For me, it comes down more to the operation and management of the system to a particular size but.

    Good luck!

  • Migrate to vDS for iSCSI Software

    So I'm going through the vDS migration guide, but I'm still a little fuzzy on how I need to migrate my VMKernel ports software iSCSI. Here is my setup...

    I have 4 hosting a test cluster. Two network ports are dedicated on each host for vSwitch1 which has a VMKernel port with an IP address in the 10.5.33.

    How can I disconnect from my software iSCSI initiator or migrate the IP address of a vSS to a vDS without a cause of a conflict?

    http://www.keithsopher.com/Images/VCP_logo_40.gif

    While add you ESX host service VDS, there is an option to add the console service & VMkernel iSCSI to the vDS. If you already add this particular vDS host, remove first the host of vDS.

  • Buy an Ipad opportunity - software issue

    Hi all, you plan to buy a 2nd hand ipad.  Someone told me I can have problems with software compatibility.  You can give me advice, for example if I were to buy a 2nd Gen is this likely to cause me problems at all now or in the future?

    I would use it for internet games, movies, apps and the app like crush candy and music.

    Thank you

    If you intend to buy second hand, you should look at iPad 4th generation or model later.

  • Drivers & software issues

    I'm back on a HP laptop having spent recent years using a Dell Precision M4600 (which miss me it already).

    I was hoping that HP would have improved their site to download drivers and software to provide more and better to help users identify the drivers there, but unfortunately it does not appear that much changed. Web site still leaves the user to determine what drivers and software apply to a particular computer.

    There are a number of cases where if you look at the history of revisions for a pilot, for example, the Intel I217LM/V and I218LM Gigabit Ethernet Driver, there are versions of the driver available that are newer than the driver 'recommended '.

    Here's what's on the Web site:

    Version: 1.00 S (February 13, 2015)
    Version: 12.12.80.19 a (December 8, 2014)

    Improvements

    -Provides improved support for Eve connected.
    -Provided improved messaging when the system resumes from standby.
    -Provides improved performance ultra-low-power (ULP) while the system is connected to or disconnected external audio cable.

    Version: 12.12.50.7205 a (August 26, 2014)

    Improvements

    It is not clear why the revision history would show most recent versions of the drivers if they are not applicable, but if they are applicable, why the site recommend the latest version, instead of the version of August 26, 2014?

    Intel and Nvidia have newer drivers available for network cards and graphics cards, respectively. Is anyone getting drivers for these devices from Intel or Nvidia?

    HP has two applications, HP Support Assistant Software and HP SoftPaq Download Manager. Or the other of these applications provide a useful ability to keep drivers up to date?

    Thank you.

    To answer your question, yes you can absolutely download drivers direct newest on manufacturer (Nvidia or Intel etc) site if you wish. The drivers located on the HP site are those that have been tested to work specifically with the HP hardware, that's why sometimes, you might see a difference in newer versions.

    I would certainly recommend Softpaq or HP Service Manager download Assistant to help keep your drivers up to date running. This will take a lot of the guesswork of whats required and will save you time from the obligation to keep checking the website for updates of drivers. You can even set downloads to happen automatically if you wish! I hope this helps to clear up some things and point you in the right direction. Never hesitate to give us a call if you need assistance with your Zbook to 866-625-1175.
