Lost touch with ESXi v4 Server

One of my software engineers wanted to try joining two an ESXi v4 host network adapters. Unfortunately the vSwitch in which he held was the one that contains the VMKernel port.

The host was installed by using the free ESXi installation, so I'm assuming that RCLI cannot be used to solve the problem. Is there a way I fix this situation, which does not require everything be reinstalled?

Hello

I don't know, but maybe you can fix it by going through the console.

If I'm not mistaken, I think that when you do maps NETWORK grouping, in Console\Configure Management Network\Network adapter the cluster NIC would be checked, if you can a few unchecked and set the parameter for the IP (if necessary), then restart the management network.

If I'm missing something; Please correct me, thank you.

  • VCenter Server (standard) useful with ESXi is free?

    Trying to decide what, if anything, to actually buy VMware.  The free ESXi product license is... enough.  I would really like to central management, backup or read/write capabilities with rcli (piracy without installation - I think I said that correctly).

    My question is this.  There is a VERY big jump in $$$ of the products beforehand essentials range or better (I think that the Standard line is unnecessary).  I currently have 5 VMware servers (2 under Server Linux 2.0 on server newish hardware, each, 2 ESXi 4 server about 4 VM running on old jobs as each House a unique VM (due to higher disk IO) and ESXi 3.5 server running on 32-bit with 1 VM hardware).

    In any case - with a mixture of mission critical production VM and VM little criticism that don't necessary not to live on a San and puff SAN bandwidth, I'm not sure I want to limit myself to 3 physical machines.  It would be probably enough for the next 5 to 10 years, but it would affect my SAN strategies and I have to buy at least 1 or 2 new costly servers.

    So I thought that maybe just get the vCenter Server for centralized management would work.  I always have 2 or 3 more enjoyable new servers ESXi 4 on the San with mission critical servers, while continuing to have 2-3 of older machines with individual local readers VM (I like to keep virtual for purposes of disaster recovery for) running.

    I can't find any information on knowledge if it would work, and it would offer benefits etc..

    You cannot add free ESXi to vCenter. Adding a host requires the inside the host vCenter Agent license.

    Sorry about that.

  • PowerEdge Raid700 in RD540 with ESXi Thinkserver

    Hello

    I'll put up a hypverisor 5.5 ESXi update 2 on a lenovo RD540. There is a RAID700 controller.

    I use 3 HARD drive in a RAID6 configured with the tool of the bios (Mega RAID LSI)

    The server works fine, but I don't see the healthy of the RAID on the ESXi.

    I don't see the virtual disk, not the adapter of storage or physical disks. If one lose a disc ESXi does not know, I hear only the PIF from the server.

    How can I solve this problem?

    If I use the "Lenovo easy start' to install ESXi RAID adapter will be with ESXi?

  • I put my cRIO 'DHCP' to 'local connection' and lost contact with her.

    I put my cRIO 'DHCP' to 'local connection' and lost contact with her.

    I changed the location setting labelled '2' to post a link-local only, so I think I hit save to '3 '.  So, I have had no contact with my cRIO network.

    I tried;

    Hit the reset button

    A MAX of opening closure

    Go to safe mode

    Lift the switch to reset IP

    Power cycling the cRIO

    Directly from the host to my target of cat 5 cable running

    None of it worked, and I have no contact with my cRIO.

    This is what MAX looks like now.  How can I fix?

    It turns out that I had more of a problem.  Corrupt drivers, 255 in many in my subnet mask, overly complex LAN, use server control... you get the idea.  So I just deleted all software, disassembled everything and more from scratch.  Now back to the top and work.

    Thanks for the tips everyone, all the pieces and peace where it is useful to help me see the bigger picture.

  • Windows cannot connect to the printer. The name of the printer has been correctly entered, or the specified printer has lost its connection to the server.

    A Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition SP2 32-bit computer is a field, the file and print server.

    A computer on the domain is a machine of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 - bit with HP DesignJet 500 24 printer connected via USB.  The printer is running the latest firmware.  The PC is running the latest 64-bit drivers with no problems to the host machine printing.  The host also has the latest drivers 32-bit (x 86) installed by downloading by other computers on the network.  The printer is configured to share with the share name of HPDJ500.

    Now, on a machine Windows XP Pro SP3 32 bit on the field, I'm trying to connect to the shared printer.  Add a printer > click Next in the wizard of > check "a network printer or a printer attached to another computer" and then click Next > click on "Find a printer in the directory", then click Next > click Find now > HPDJ500 in the list below (the XP machine can see the shared printer on the Windows 7 computer!) and click OK.  At this point, I get an error that says: "Windows cannot connect to the printer.  The name of the printer has been correctly entered, or the specified printer has lost its connection to the server.  For more information, click Help. »

    Alternatively, if I right-click on the HPDJ500 printer listed, then click on connect, I get the same error message but I also see a separate window that says "Connecting to HPDJ500 on H2.ws.net" with the lively projector.  This window also disappears as soon as I clear the error message.

    Please note that this printer worked perfectly as a printer shared, hosted on a machine XP 32 bit on the field.  It works perfectly for the new Windows 7 64-bit machine, but we cannot connect from anywhere else on the network (including the server which translates the same exact error message).  On the server, I also preinstalled drivers thinking there was a problem with a 32-bit computer, trying to grasp the correct drivers from the host 64-bit Windows 7, but that doesn't change anything.

    How connect to this printer?

    Try using the path UNC path of the printer in the Add Printer Wizard.

    Add a printer > network printer > connection to this printer ((deuxieme point)

    Click next to browse (leave blank, the name field) or type the UNC path of the printer (i.e. \\Computername\Printername) path

  • My hard drive crashed and I can't get in touch with Microsoft because they want a product id and the number I have is not working. Help!

    I've had my laptop for several years and a week ago, the hard drive crashed. So, although I had all my photos and movies and other saved, I lost Vista. This wouldn't be a problem if I could find the disks that came with the computer at the beginning, but I've moved several times in recent years (college) and I can't find them. Anyway, I'm now trying to get in touch with Microsoft to get a new drive, but they won't talk to you unless you can provide a product key.

    There is a product key on the back of my laptop, but their system apparently doesn't like it and so they're going to make me pay $ 50 just to send someone. Someone knows how to bypass the product key thing, so I can get a customer support?

    Thank you
    Chandra

    Hello

    as vista came preinstalled Microsoft do not offer FREE support for this issue of yours. That is why the price of $50.

    and they ask for a product ID, not a product key that you mentioned; but who has the same result; no free support

    Product ID is completely different from the product key

    your support is the manufacturer of your laptop; but feel free to ask questions on these Forums

    to reinstall vista:

    Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

    they do it for a nominal cost of $

    or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc

    Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

    they contain all versions of vista

    This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

    Packard Bell oneTwo L5871 lost touch screen installation.  I can't find a driver anywhere.  Packard Bell does not even recognize my model or serial number!  Does anyone else have this problem, it has only 1 year.  Worked fine with Windows 7.

    I found the solution to this painful problem:

    2. choose Office - Onetwo - Onetwo xxU6P - 8 32 windows OS or 64 bit [upgrade to windows 7]
    3 download the touch driver.
    4 unzip and install
    5 reset
    6. you should now have the touchscreen feature.

  • Could not detect my DPS and hdd with Esxi 6.0

    Hello forum,.

    I bought a relatively new desktop for my studies of cisco computer. I am completely new to exsi and took notes on the net to install esxi.

    In "Select a disk to install or upgrade", I am unable to see the two hard drives.

    I have,

    CPU Intel I7 - 4790K, motherboard Asus Z97 - has

    240GB Kingston SSD

    Toshiba 1 TB HARD drive

    I tried to format the two hard drive using windows 7 and tried to install Esxi 6, but the two remains undetected.

    I tried 5.5 as well but the result is the same.

    Help, please.

    Thank you.

    ESXi is built for server hardware, he may simply not support your disk controller. Since it is a lab environment, you can check if VMware experience before: how to make your unsupported work SATA AHCI Controller with ESXi 5.5 and 6.0 helps build a custom installation image that runs on your hardware.

  • Having problems with ESXi/vSphere Client Network

    First of all, I apologize if it's thread is in the wrong section.

    I recently installed ESXi v6.0.0 in VMware Workstation 12.0 trying to familiarize myself with ESXi as I recently graduated and I forgot most of what I learned from the class I took.

    Then, ESXi installed smoothly and was very painless.

    Then, I tried to create a virtual machine. It's when things are messy. I can't understand why, but I don't get any network connectivity after obtaining a DHCP address to all within the virtual machine, in addition to being able to ping the host ESXi itself.

    First of all, networking is like so:

    10.10.10.1 router/gateway

    10.10.10.254 DHCP, DNS, server, VMware Workstation files 12

    10.10.10.250 ESXi host

    The vSwitch has the following properties:

    And the following then occurs on the ESXi prompt:

    Images:,2015-10-04_21-01 - 58.png, 2015-10-04_21-03 - 32.png


    I can't really understand what the problem is, or what is happening. Yes, I could set up an internal network of the virtual machine with a firewall and what not, but I was hoping that there would already network connectivity while I wouldn't do. Also, is it possible to make attachments online?


    Thanks for all their help

  • How will I know if a host is associated with a vCenter Server

    Once my 5.0 ESXi host is managed by / code with a vCenter server, there are some commands that you can perform only through the vCenter.

    In particular, all-hard drive size, whole-controller SCSI and Set-VMReservations.

    In case my vCenter is down, I would leave my script (PowerCLI 5.5r1) with a mistake that these operations cannot be executed until start of vCenter or the host that contains the virtual machine is no longer active with vCenter.  I think it's safe to let the user decide how he wants to move forward in this case and not build it in my script.

    Is there a cmdlet to ask the host if it is associated with a vCenter Server?  When you use VI Client to connect to the host, you can see the link in the lower right part of the Summary tab that says "separate host to vCenter Server...". ».

    The get-VMHost cmdlet seems like it should have this info, but I was not able to find.

    Thanks for your suggestions

    Maureen

    Please take a look to determine vCenter management host to see if that helps.
