Location of the service after upgrade to vSphere Console

In December, I improve VMWare VCenter and servers ESX, vSphere 4.0 3.5 u1. I then discover that my Service on hosts 3 Console, have changed rather than the local store, to a shared SAN store. I can find it, is the only workaround:

de : http://www.VMware.com/support/vSphere4/doc/vsp_esx40_vc40_rel_notes.html

If you choose a store of data shared for the service console, the installation or upgrade of software tool does not issue a warning

For ESX 4.0, the service console must be installed on a VMFS datastore that resides on the local host drive or on a drive of SAN which is masked and zoned on that particular only host. This version does not support the installation of the service on a data store console that is shared between the hosts. When you install ESX 4.0 or upgrading to ESX 4.0, you must select a store location of VMFS data for the service console (esxconsole.vmdk). If you select a data store that is shared between the hosts, the installation tool or software upgrade does not issue a warning.

Workaround: Do not install the service on a VMFS datastore console shared between hosts.

Is there someone who can tell me, how to move the service console?

Best regards

Peter

I do not think that it is possible to move the ESXConsole.

Read this post http://communities.vmware.com/thread/214439

The easiest way is to reinstall GUESTS concerned with access to SAN.

In this way, that you don't have the ability to install ESXConsole on SAN disks.

I googled and found this post that explains how to handle the ESXConsole, maby this will help you.

    Hello

    I noticed that the keyboard layout has changed in the comments after the upgrade to VMware Fusion version 6 to version 7, even if nothing has changed in the settings "Region and language" in comments Windows 7.  Keys that have changed are "------' with ' < ' and ' | ' with ' > ' everything is OK. The keyboard is configured in Italian

    All the world has noticed the same problem?

    Have you solved?

    Thanks in advance.

    The problem has been resolved by the technical support of vmware with a workaround. They know that the question on the keys is interchangeable in the VM after upgrade to Fusion 7.

    Their development team is currently working on this issue on the priority. This will be fixed in the next update.

    However, they have a work around for the problem of keyboard. Following the instructions below to map the key manually in VMware Fusion.

    : Note make a note of the interchangeable keys in Windows before you enable the mapping of the keys.

    1. click on VMware Fusion-> preferences-> keyboard & mouse-> mappings of keys

    2. make sure that 'Enable key mappings' is enabled

    3. click on '+' sign at the bottom

    4. press the key that you want to send from the text box Mac keyboard

  • No service after upgrade the server to 5.2 on El Capitan

    I have a web server that was doing very well until I left the 5.2 update suggested to install OS X Server. I can't get to broadcast web pages. Screen sharing works always and nothing has changed on the routers, etc.

    I restarted the server after the update and restarted the server itself several times but keep getting connection via a browser failures.

    I did the upgrade even on other servers as well as the upgrade of Sierra. This server is running El Capitan, and is the only one that gave me problems. 5.2 server is not compatible with El Capitan?

    Some additional info:

    I can connect to the server through ftp and other services; just no web service.

    Port tests show that port 80 is not blocked

    Using the IP address I can get to the window of the home server.

    Accessibility means no services available

    Websites is on and I can't find anything that is not defined in law or is different than before the update.

  • "No connection to the server of VR: does not not." after upgrade to vSphere 5.5

    As part of the upgrade to vSphere 5.1 to 5.5 along http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2057795 I've updated vSphere replication to 5.5.0.0 build 1309877. All rehearsals continued well then. I only add the new vCenter replication and it stopped for the old.

    After the migration of all VM including device just RV improved another 5.5 ESXi host I upgraded from original host and migrated the back of some VM. I noticed that only this VM is replicated again then. All other zeroes had "no connection to the server VR: does not not." and "Violation of RPO" messages (including RVS). If I migrate the original replication host virtual computer is restored. If I migrate to another connection from host to the server of VR is lost again - no matter what a host running VR.

    Any idea, please?

    Yes, it's possible, but I just wanted to rule out any more simple explanations first. I was worried especially when you said the VR server could not ping itself, but perhaps I misinterpreted what you were saying.

    In all cases, you can verify if this is your problem by looking for a line like this in the esx.conf of the hosts that you upgraded:

    / NET/vmkernelnic/Child [0001] / tags/4 = 'true '.

    If so, remove the line in the esx.conf and restart the host. Then, once the host is back, check that the network adapter assigned to the vmkernel is an accessible IP address.

    In my view, that the part "child [0001]" may be different on certain configurations if you do not find the exact line I've specified above, check around the lines part of [another] child.

  • Corruption of the repeat rate of the keyboard after upgrading vsphere 5.0

    I currently have a problem with some of my XP VM.  We have a group of two moderators which I upgraded to esxi5.0 recently and since the upgrade of the tools on a number of machines that I had the following problems.

    Using the Vsphere console have not seen a problem with RDP.

    On XP but NOT on Linux or windows7

    After the reboot the virtual machine, and then at a random time, the keyboard repeat rate going funny IE, press a button and release it as fast as you can results in 20 characters in the Notepad window.

    Can solve the problem by going into the properties of the keyboard in the control panel and change the keyboard typematic rate, it does not matter what you change to or if you change it back to where it started, the problem disappeared for a while.

    The problem refers to a random time again and can be fixed in the same way.

    Restart the virtual machine has no effect.

    VCenter restarting has no effect.

    Restart all clients of VSphere has no effect.

    Restart the local running vsphere client pc has no effect.

    Opening of the two consoles on different clients in different vshpere on the PC to connect to the same VM - you can have the issue and the other may not have a problem.

  • No SSH access after upgrade to vSphere 4.1

    Hi all

    Just updated my test environment to vSphere 4.1. Everything seems to work, but when I tried to log in using putty (ssh), I got "access denied" on the user account created specially for this purpose. After connecting the host directly using the VI client, I see users "vmware" sitting there. "Grant shell access to this user" is marked. I tried to reset the password, use a more complex password, created another (vmware2) user with shell access enabled. Nothing helps. I have connection using PuTTY and receive "access denied", as if the account does not have access via SSH.

    I have no easy option for now to log on to the console directly, so I can't enable root access for now as well.

    Has anyone seen this?



    Visit my blog at http://www.vmdamentals.com

    Hi all

    It comes to the design change in ESX 4.1. According to the design of new power users only for the Service Console and VMkernel directors can connect to the console using ssh. Users without these privileges cannot connect you to the Service Console.

    The same is captured in the documentation. Please check the "Note" in section "Considerations on the upgrade of the post" Upgrade Guide (http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vsphere4/r41/vsp_41_upgrade_guide.pdf).

    Snip of the Document: -.

    < snip >

    NOTE after the upgrade to ESX 4.1, only the user administrator has access to the service console. To grant

    Access service console to other users after upgrade to envisage to grant administrator permissions for

    other users.

  • can not detect the iphone after upgrading 12.5.1.21

    Set to update to the latest version of itunes (12.5.1.21) and now itunes does not detect my iphone.  tried to remove the lockdown folder. tried to restart all devices.

    Windows 10 with all updates installed. Someone at - it suggestions?

    If your iOS device does not appear in iTunes, try the following:

    1. Open Control Panel > Device Manager
    2. Plug in your device
    3. Locate Bus USB Controllers > Apple Mobile Device USB Driver.
      It is also possible that the device may appear under imaging devices, portable devices or other devices or as a device USB of MTB.
    4. Right-click and select software update of the driver...
    5. Click Browse my computer for driver software
    6. Go to C:\Program Files\Common Apple Mobile Device Support\Drivers or
      C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers
    7. Click on let me pick from a list of drivers for devices on my computer
    8. Click on Apple Mobile Device USB Driver
    9. Click Next, then close and exit the Device Manager

    To step 3 above, open the Device Manager. Expand one of the articles that are listed.

    • USB Bus controllers
    • Imaging devices
    • Portable devices
    • Other devices

    Plug in the appliance. You should hear the telltale Windows sound device connection and a Division must acquire a new entry. This should be your device. It cannot be labelled properly at this point. If you do not hear a suspicious noise cable damaged.

    Or try If iTunes does not your iPad, iPhone or iPod - Apple Support Apple version of the above opinion.

    If not try a complete tear down and rebuild iTunes in accordance with the resolution of the problems with iTunes for Windows updates. 64-bit users might also try the alternate build Download iTunes for Windows (64-bit-for older video cards) , which is sometimes a useful workaround.

    Or try to go back to the last version of iTunes that has worked for you. See the programs installation of iTunes to download links. If you're back 12.5.1.21 to 12.4.3.1 or 12.4.2.4, for example, then you will also need to restore the database of the library using the method described in the empty/corrupted after upgrade/crash iTunes library. The tip makes suggestions to reintroduce recent purchases, so at worst, you lose a few meters or a newly created playlist.

  • NFS problem after upgrade to vSphere, ESXi 5.0 5.1

    Hello community,
    I installed / updated on a Dell r.620 Server ESXi 5.0 5.1 vSphere
    I also have an ESXi installed 5.0 an another r.620 Dell both connected to a Snyology Racksation via NFS. (at different volumes)
    Now, I have the problem that I can't install an OS (Windows XP, Windows 8, Windows 7) located on an NFS share in a new created virtual machine.
    I am not connected without vCenter, just with the vSphere Client direct connected.
    The system boots, but I can not choose to install the operating system on the new created VMDK but then nothing happens.
    I also tried to format the drive before installation, formatting breaks down after 15 minutes with the message: "unable to format the drive...". 0 x 80070057 ".
    When the virtual machine is on the local storage of the VM to the server, everything works fine.
    I can also install and start virtual machines on the same NFS with an ESXi 5.0 share.
    Formerly installed VMs can also start. All hung on the windows logo screen and the German Embassy "Comuptereinstellungen werden übernommen"... for over an hour...
    The same virtual machines work fine on the ESXi 5.0, located on the same NFS share.
    But on the NFS share, I can write and read the data with the Client vSphere (on configuration-> storage) with no problems, so I guess that there is a problem with the NFS, permissions etc volume.
    So I guess there must be a problem with the NFS share on vSphere Host 5.1.

    Does anyone have an idea what is the problem?

    Thank you very much!

  • Slow IO performance after upgrade to vSphere 5

    Hi all

    I have a problem in our lab environment and I type some other brains in the community .

    First of all a brief overview:

    2 x Fujitsu RX300 S5 (FC HBA LP1150)

    1 x Fujitsu RX300 S6 (FC HBA LP1250)

    2 x Brocade 200E

    1 x Fujitsu Eternus DX90 (CF)

    1 x Fujtsu Siemens FibreCAT SX80 (CF)

    All devices are running with 4 G FC.

    Last week we updated our servers with the latest firmware (included HBA) and the latest vSphere 5 (updated 01 and the last patch-bundle). Everythings seems to run fine, after I've got svmotioned a few servers to get an empty data store. A few small servers (each. approximately 30 GB) need hours to get to the target data store. With CLI, I created a vmdk eagerzeroedthick to test the performance on our DX90. It took almost 10 minutes to create a 10 GB vmdk (about 17 MB / s; flow even showed DX90 performance monitor). I did the same on the FibreCAT and this storage is running normally with 170 MB per second.

    Now lets get things I did to track down the cause:

    1. I connected directly the first server with the DX90 (to avoid the fc switch)-> problem still there
    2. I went down the HBA firmware to version previos-> problem still there
    3. I installed the 4.1 vSphere update 02. I put only the investigation period and did test of 10 GB-> problem disappeared. for 10 GB, it took 39 seconds which is nearly 300 MB per second
    4. I installed (new installation) of the first version of vSphere 5-> surprise, the problem here is once again
    5. I installed ESXi 4.1 (I tested again and it took again 39 seconds for a 10 GB vmdk) and upgraded to vSphere 5-> problem is still there
    6. I tried all the way air, Fujitsu drivers customized for Emulex HBA and LUN parameters

    Writing performance monitor shows response time between 700 year 1400 ms and 17 MB per second with vSphere 5 to the DX90. With version 4, it is between 0 and 60 ms and nearly 300 MB per second. Only the SX80 works very well to any version (not support ALUA). Each unit works with the latest firmware.

    It is without doubt vSphere 5, what causes the problem. I can't find clues in newspapers or VMware KB.

    Does anyone have an idea or the same problem? If I can't find a solution in the coming days, I propose to prosecute.

    Thanks in advance

  • after upgrade to vsphere 5 - email does not send

    Hi all

    with vsphere 4 and ghettovcb, I had no problem in using the experimental feature of sending the mails after backup completion.

    Now after the upgrade to vsphere 5 and upgraded ghettovcb in the mail last version (esxi 5 incl. support), sent to the internal mail server lacks.

    Nothing else was changed.

    Error:

    2011-09-07 03:04:02 - info: = ghettoVCB JOURNAL END =.

    2011-09-07 03:05:17 - info: ERROR: can't send the log to 192.168.1.11:25 output to emailuser

    Anything I could provide or check to fix this or help in any resolution?

    Can you check to see if the firewall is on, what's new with ESXi 5 and make sure that port 25 is open.

  • Lost access to the volume after upgrade 4.1

    Setup

    1 x HP c7000 blade box

    3 x HP BL460cG6 with dual Xeons 5540 and 48Gb of RAM, cards ISCSI HBA, QLogic

    3 x HP P4300 Lefthands

    4 x 3020 Cisco switches for blade in the back the c7000, 2 x dedicated to iSCSI traffic

    vSphere 4.1 Server

    The problem

    We went through the entire process of upgrading our server for vSphere 4.0 to 4.1 to manage a stand-alone ESXi 4.1 system, so our attentions turn to our 3 blades running ESXi 4.0u1 we used the built in Update Manager, downloaded the 4.0 to 4.1 upgrade file and we have improved our first blade and it did not notice problems as there put servers have was little used those.  We then upgraded the second and moved our main mail on her server.

    It was when we did that we started getting errors when people were losing connection to the exchange server, after some research we've seen of the event and we have been to see the error:

    "Lost access to the volume because of connectivity issues."  Recovery attempt is underway and the results will be available shortly"

    Then 10 seconds later we get the message:

    "Successfully restored access to the volume due to connectivity problems."

    This error only occurs on the blades of 4.1, we have restored a blade on 4.0 and errors are not displayed and no errors were reported with the servers on this blade.  As far as we can say it is not a network problem since all blades for iSCSI traffic flows on the same switches to the Lefthands, and we were losing the connection to volumes on the two Lefthands.

    We have a call connected with HP about this, but from the Yes, we cannot determine what is causing this problem and how to solve.

    So any help is greatly appricated

    Thank you

    Dave
