• Choose the right network card

  I have 2 Windows Server 2008 R2 based VMs hosted by VMware ESXi 5.0 hosts and managed by vShpere 5.0.

  Virtual machines act as an application server and a server terminal server.

  Users report poor network performance and network errors sometimes in the connection between 2 virtual machines.

  The two virtual machines are configured to use virtual network E1000 cards.

  It is advisable to change the types of VMXNET 2 or 3 VMXNET virtual network adapter?

  Should expect better performance and less network error?

  I don't see no possibility to change the type of network adapter, what is the best procedure to change the type of network adapter? Should I add a new network adapter, change the address of the existing one, configure the new with the old network adapter IP address and delete the old network card or is there a procedure better?

  Concerning

  Marius

  I did this several times.

  1. Add ethernet adapter type: VMXNET 3
  2. Now you have two network cards
  3. log on to the operating system invited
     1. Configure the IP address of the new card with the old IP address, will NOT APPLY the changes...
        1. go to vSphere Client
        2. Change the settings of the virtual machine
        3. Select the old network adapter and
           1. Uncheck the box 'connected' and the boxes ' to connect to the power supply on "under"device status ".
           2. Click OK.
        4. back to the BONE
           1. then click OK to apply the new IP address to the new network adapter.  You'll have to itself a warning saying about duplicate of IP and you asking to fix it.  Click Cancel.
  4. go back to change the settings of the virtual machine in vSphere Client
     1. and remove the old network card

• ESXi does not recognize the PCI network cards

  Good afternoon-

  I am trying to add a few new ESXi hosts to my virtual machine environment and I want my NIC integrated with the PCI NICs for tolerance to failures of the team.  ESXi is not to see the PCI network cards.  I can't find a way on how to add them to the host.  Add network cards in VC shows just the cards integrated network, the same as the ESXi console (or what there is of it).  What I'm missing here?  Thanks in advance.

• ProBook 4520 s - exchange of the wireless network card

  Hello everyone.

  I think the exchange of the wireless network card in my Probook 4520 s, due to the low flow.
  So I searched for a while a 5 Ghz supporting the card and found out that I am only able to get in the "white" cards list working. Then I looked at this page:

  http://h20000.www2.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/document.jsp?lang=en & CC = US & objectid = c02487851 & jumpi...

  These cards can be any, that have been used in 4520 s. Mine (according to the Device Manager) is the Broadcom 4313 802.11b/g/n. This thing only supports 2.4 Ghz. Now, I looked at the list for a 5 Ghz supporting the card. I think that the 802.11A/B/G/N WLAN Intel HMC 572520-001 minicards can operate on 5 Ghz, because I read, that A appears only with maps of 2.4/5 Ghz. I read too, that maps of 2.4 / 5 GHz have 3 antennas, but on this card I only the slots for 2. Is this good? And this card would go into my 4520 s?

  Greetings,

  Colony

  Hi, colony:

  You are right about your statement about the cards being described as A/B/G/N dual-band.

  The best thing to do is look at Chapter 3 of your service manual.

  You can only order one of the cards listed as supported and it MUST have the HP reference on it or it won't work.

  I see only two possibilities for you...

  The 6200 Intel and Broadcom 4322.  Make sure you also get the part # that corresponds to what country you live.

  If your current Broadcom card has integrated Bluetooth, you will lose your Bluetooth capability if you order an integrated HP bluetooth module and probably the cable too.

  None of the dual-band cards have embedded bluetooth.

  Link to the service manual.

  http://bizsupport1.Austin.HP.com/BC/docs/support/SupportManual/c02439213/c02439213.PDF

  Then, you can order a card on the link below.

  If you do not live in the United States, you can change your country at the top of the page to yours.

• Tecra A10 - 12O: installing the driver network card in Windows Server 2003 R2 Std

  Hello

  I received 6 laptop Tecra A10 - 12O, and we need to install Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard Edition with SP2 in all these six machines. Windows Server 2003 has been installed perfectly, but now we have only the network LAN card to work but we are unable to install its driver. When I installed Windows XP from the supplied DVD for Toshiba, it says Intel 82567V Gigabit network adapter. I tried to download the drivers for this adatpor of drivers Toshiba, Intel Web site, but it will not install in Windows Server 2003. I also tried manually force to choose and install a driver from the list, I choose that it will install but shows yellow question mark in Device Manager means that it does not work with this driver.

  I also tried the same Intel 82567V drivers from some sites non-Toshiba, of these models using the same network card, but is not truck drivers at all.

  I understand these laptop computers does not support Windows Server 2003, but these were ordered to be used as servers with Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition and I am required to make the Installer only with activated and installed network adapter.

  I try last week and exhausted all means to get the installed network adapter driver, but all have failed. Can someone please help with this? All support will be highly appreciated.

  Thank you.

  Charwal

  Hey Buddy

  If I m not wrong Windows Server 2003 uses the same drivers as Win XP and I guess that it s driver problem not a LAN, but perhaps also the problem of Windows Server 2003 installed.

  You are right; the LAN chip seems to be Intel 82567V and the LAN driver downloaded from Intel page should work 100%.

  In your case, I would recommend installing the chipset driver.
  Remove the LAN card from Device Manager, then restart the laptop.
  Then go back to Device Manager and update driver in pointing devices Manager to the place where the driver downloaded LAN was stored on the HARD drive.

• CMS OVA, adding the second NETWORK card breaks the first NETWORK card

  I'm testing CMS 2.0 and when I try to add a second NETWORK card in VMware, he immediately interrupts the first network card.  As soon as the loading of the image, the first NIC fails.  Even if I disable iface b, it will allow all traffic where iface one.  If I stop the application, remove the NETWORK adapter and run it back again, it works very well to the iface one.

  I want to test the public face with box feature, but I can't if I can't add a second network card.

  How do you add the second network interface and interface you add?

  You should add 'VMXNET3' type if you use VMWare, if you chose something else, you invalidate your license, see section 3.3 of the virtualized CMS 2.0 Setup Guide for deployments.

  If you need assistance, you must move this thread to the section of telepresence of forums, where this device is actively discussed.  You can change your question and change the categories at the bottom of the page.

• Call "HostNetworkSystem.UpdateVirtualSwitch" for the error of the object when you attempt to add the second NETWORK card

  Hi there - first post here, so please be nice :-).

  We are just trying to place an ESX4.1 own deployment in our environment (no previous installation of VMWare) to our main office, using Dell M610 and blades blades M600 to what would become our DR - two sites site hosting VMS on Equallogic iSCSI SAN disks.

  I configured 4 of our blade M610 with ESX 4.1 successfully and they work very well.  These blades have double NIC onboard, and after the initial installation of ESX, I could go to the virtual switch and add in the second NIC like vmnic1 (because one had already been detected during installation).  This fine workd for 4 guests on the M610 blades.  However, I came today to make my first installation on one of the old M600 blades and I encountered a problem.

  Installation went without any problems and I was able to add the host in my vCenter.  I can change all the settings without problem (created the Port of VMKernal for my connection to SAN iSCSI etc, but as soon as I try to add in the second NETWORK card, he paused for a while, and then I get the following error message:)

  Call 'HostNetworkSystem.UpdateVirtualSwitch' of object 'networkSystem-56 "on vCenter Server"VCEN01." ournetwork.local"failed. (network name has been changed for post).  When this happens, it locks up again for several seconds, and when the system returns, I can no longer communicate with the ESX host (Observer of events in vCenter watch 'host is not responding' and I find that I can not ping the host unless I reboot it.)

  If anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it that I don't want to proceed down to the line with our Installer if theres an underlying issue and I need to redo everything.

  Concerning

  EFIN.

• Add the second NETWORK card to vSwitch

  I'm working on trying to add to install a second NIC physical to the vswitch which is installed by default when ESXi. I use the code below, but when I run it, it disconnects in fact the main physical network card and of course, I then lose connection. I tried different varients of this and even finished by adding a port of vmk, which I didn't do. I just want to add the second network card as a standby card network.

  #Add second NIC to the virtual switch
  $nic = Get-VirtualSwitch -VMHost $currentHost -Name "vSwitch0"
  Set-VirtualSwitch -VirtualSwitch $nic -Nic vmnic1
  

  The cmdlet Set-VirtualSwitch accepts a string array as the value of the parameter - Nic. So you should be able to:

  #Add second NIC to the virtual switch
  $nic = Get-VirtualSwitch -VMHost $currentHost -Name "vSwitch0"
  Set-VirtualSwitch -VirtualSwitch $nic -Nic vmnic1,vmnic2

• Configure the 2 network cards in a VM for MPLS LAN and the other for internet

  Dear all,

  I have a HP Server with 2 NIC cards. ESXI 4.0 is installed and 3 VM was created in it. Initially that a NIC card was connected to the path of the LAN MPLS switch and another card NETWORK was not connected to the internet switch port.

  Each VM only had a single NIC in it. So I assigned MPLS IP LAN to ESXI host and VM 3 and everything worked perfectly.

  Now, I wanted to have the internet connection for my 3 VM. So I plugged the 2nd NETWORK card with internet port and added the second NETWORK card to the ESXi using the Vsphere client - & gt; configuration - & gt; Networking option. Now the two nic cards are ponting to the network of the virtual computer.

  I've added 2 network card to all 3 VM and assigned to the internet IP addresses to all of these NICs. order of MPLS and internet work at the same time, I removed the card NIC MPLS entry door and manually routed through route add command. After this MPLS and internet worked well in 1 VM.

  I tried the same thing in 2nd and 3rd VM but it failed. whenever I have add 2nd network card in the virtual machine, the first of this virtual machine network adapter does not work.

  I'm after the right approach? Help, please...

  Kind regards

  Ashok doriane

  If I understand correctly your installation, you connected the physical NIC to two different IP networks.  Then you connected these cards in the same switch-v on the server.

  This essentially fills two different networks at the layer level 2 layer 3.

  You want rather than the two networks remain separated inside the host.

  • create a new v-switch on the host

  • move the internet NIC v-switch

  • Move the second NIC on each virtual machine to this switch

  • Make sure that access to internet VM NIC is one with a default gateway on a virtual machine OS

  • remove the default gateway of the NIC MPLS

  • creating persistent static routes to the NIC MPLS for any affected networks it beyond the same subnet as the NIC itself.  Addresses on the same subnet will be automatically accessible. Just roads for those outside this range.

• Cannot add the secondary network card

  Hello! I bought specially for ESXi (Intel PRO/1000 MT Desktop Adapter, model number 8390MT) a new PCI Intel network card. It is listed as a supported network component. I have pluged it started, the host, went the networking, but I still see only one, the old network card. It would appear there automatically or must something needs to be done in the linux command line? I'm not good with linux, maybe I should just re - install the ESXi?

  Make sure that you add the NIC in the vSwitch. If you just go to the page of networking in the VShpere customer, you won't see the second NIC automatically connected to the vSwitch. Did you do that?

• Satellite Pro A40 fell on the wireless network card; Damaged PCMCIA slot

  This morning my Satellite Pro A40 (Celeron 2.6) fell 40 cm. He fell right on the wireless network card that has been inserted. This card is still alive and so is the rest of the laptop, but the PCMCIA location is little damaged. I can insert PC cards almost completely, just the last piece (when the pins are) wrong.

  I removed the cover near the CPU, and there, I could see the inside PCMCIA slot; I could see the main part and the last part where the pins are. That little part as is pushed upward, as you can see in the pictures.

  I think I'd be able to fix myself this PCMCIA slot, but I can't remove it. I removed all the screws on the rear plate, but he is still blocked.

  Pics:

  PCMCIA slot

  The PCMCIA location; on the left, you will see the part with the pins, which is pushed upward. It's also what I see when I look at the pins in the PCMCIA slot. as they are pushed down, but I don't think they are folded.

  Wireless network card

  Wireless network card; It is a little damaged but it still works.

  Does anyone have an idea how I can remove the back plate, or another way to remove the PCMCIA slot and fix it?

  Hi Steve

  Well, I can give t well you not answer how you can just remove the PCMCIA slot.
  There are a lot of screws and to my knowledge, it is necessary to remove all covers and screws that are placed at the bottom of the unit and inside under the keyboard.
  Please check this specific device. Perhaps you have overlooked a few screws.

  But if it is impossible to remove the PCMCIA slot of the unit, I recommend to ask the service partner for a detailed instruction.

  Good luck

  Good bye

• Can satellite M65-S9092 - I put the wireless network card?

  Hello

  I think that it shouldn't be a problem to upgrade the WLan card.
  As far as I know its a card wireless network of miiPCI and you would need to also use a WLan card which would support the miniPCI interface.

  The wireless network card supports two pins for the WLan antenna cable.
  Usually, you must connect a white cable to the HAND and a black to the auxiliary voltage
