Microsoft Failover Clustering - issue of persistent reservations
Hello
I am trying to set up a fresh Win 2008 R2 failover cluster on my 5.0 ESXi hosts and unfortunately the verification of the cluster fails with an isssue of persistent reservation.
I follow all the kb articles and white papers correctly build 2 VM of the client as follows:
Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise SP1
NIC for public traffic
NETWORK map for the private heartbeat traffic
Disk EagorThickZero for system
RDM added in physical compatibility mode
Controller SCSI (1:0) used in physical mode for both nodes
Storage matrix that I use is a 5300 VNX
I have Powerpath 5.7 running on each host ESXi
Does anyone have an idea where this problem?
I have attached the below error message.
Hello
The two guests are running on the same host? Have you tried posting when they are running on different hosts?

Replication Failover clustering & Hyper-v on a two-node cluster
Hello
We have two identical servers. One to use as a main server, which houses two virtual machines. The other should be used as a back up in case the main server is not somehow. We planned on using a solution of third-party software to back up our virtual machines and launch them in the event of failure of the principal server. However, we discovered just gave the failover clustering in Windows Server R2 2012.
We have tried to set up a cluster 2 nodes, with our virtual machines properly replicated to the backup server. Excited by the present, we tried then to simulate failure of the primary server (by pulling on the cable network). We were a little disappointed to find that the backup server is not automatically run virtual machines. We did a survey and read than a solution of two nodes requires storage space for additional network (in addition to our two servers).
I wonder if that's okay? In other words, a two-node failover cluster requires separate network storage space. If this is not correct, can someone point me to a set of instructions to correctly configure a two-node failover cluster that will automatically launch the virtual machines on the server backup (in the case of a failure of the principal server).
Thank you

Is Microsoft Failover Cluster ESXi 4.1 Shared Disk of NFS data store, it supported?
We have a request from MS Failover Cluster configuration on Windows 2008 R2 2 guests with a storage shared for a web application. However, there is no VMFS storage of data or the ability of the CF to presending RDM. So, I created the disks shared on a NFS datastore using option "Setup for Failover Clustering and Microsoft Cluster Service" and have added the cluster disk and tested successful failover.
But the MS cluster validation control cancelled storage and I want to know if that configuration is not taken because of supported.
A notice would be useful.
We are also working on setting up a cluster of ESXi for iSCSI storage, which can be leveraed for this purpose.

Its not supported.
4.1, your only options supported are:
- CF storage with pRDMs
- iSCSI storage with initiators guest.

Can I use ASM / ME to windows server 2012 file server failover clustering?
Hi all
Can I use ASM / ME to windows server 2012 file server failover clustering?
We can use it with exchange, sql, sharepoint,..., but I can't find any document for file server.
Thank you.
HIT / working ME with CSV W2K12/R2, W2K8 CSV volumes cannot bear not to cancel the MAPPING is the main difference. But HITTING / will allow ME to create the active copies and replicas of volumes CSV
Yes the cluster file shares are supported with SUCCESS / me. If you think about it, SQL, Exchange are indeed a "sharing". Because it is an NTFS volume with services that run against her. SQL, Exchange or fileshare services.

Microsoft Money 2005 issue on windows 8.
Microsoft Money 2005 issue on windows 8.
I have recently installed windows 8 on my laptop, but after reinstalling MS money 2005 seems to me impossible to restore data.
I think that the problem might be that while my original Money 2005 had been updated to version 14.0.120.1105 now that I reinstalled the program, it is the original version 14.0.120.730.
I am aware that Microsoft has officially stopped support for MS 2005. However as I live in England where no later version is available a sale is too much to ask that Microsoft makes updates available to allow a work produced by another MS product Ms

Tests of GOS SCSI-3 persistent reservation
Hello world!
Has anyone ever encountered this problem with the GOS SCSI - 3 persistent reservation Tests and FC SAN topology?
The problem seems to be with the path of the file to SG-3util. In previous tests, I've always used c:/SG-3util such as advised by VMware. I also tried c:\\SG-3util\\ with no luck!
My target is supported by the reservations it looks like a bug in Workbench?
See you soon!

Look at the error message he used your input to generate below. Then, I'd go with the opposite effect
'c:/SG-3util\pr_keys.bin '.
We ran through a few tracks with

Depending on the version of the Workbench you use. Sometimes when you run the tests again, it gets confused on the slashes and reject. So, I always double check before starting the test.

Microsoft Windows 2008 R2 failover clusters
I read the documents of VMware where Windows 2008R2 failover cluster installation options can be "in a box" or "out of the box '. There is another, but I need to have two virtual knots.
In the option "outside the box", it indicates that the shared drive must be a FibreChannel drive. Is this correct? Can this be any other type?
It depends on the version of vSphere that you use. FC has been the only way supported up to vSphere 5.1. With vSphere 5.5 support for iSCSI and FCoE was introduced. See http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2052238

Hello
Starting on the route from VCP 4. Read a lot of discussions here with shiny things; Thanks to all who contribute.
Is something I can't work on my own how this file: http://www.VMware.com/PDF/vSphere4/R40/vsp_40_mscs.PDF
Is part of the roadmap of documentation: http://www.VMware.com/PDF/vSphere4/R40/vsp_40_esx_roadmap.PDF
Should I just consider that last?
Thank you
It has to do with availability solutions.
You can protect aid comments clustering or using the solution services that protect the virtual machine (such as VMware HA and VMware FT).

So I am familiar with Hyper-v, failover and clustering. Clustered failover means linking two devices running the hyper-v Manager on a network for a shared storage, my boss asked one thing he wants to connect two computers on two different storage servers and connect them on a network he won't SAN option. is there anyway that I can do? and if there is, then, how?

Issue of persistent Reverb in Windows 7
Earlier today, my computer suddenly (and I mean all of a sudden, in the middle of listening to a song) started to play all the sounds with a terrible, metallic reverberation that nothing seems to get rid of. I was using the Realtek HD Audio driver, without sound effects or environment running settings. I tried to restart, uninstall and reinstall the audio driver and a system restore. Nevertheless, the problem persists. I have finally got rid of Realtek altogether and now using the microsoft High Definition driver but still no change.
Please help me. I looked for an answer to this question and found nothing.
I had the same problem. In the end, the only way I could get rid of it was to uninstall the audio device via the control panel > Device Manager. When I restarted to finish uninstalling the audio device reinstalled cleanly and the undesirable reverberation was gone. Simply reinstall the audio driver on the existing driver has not worked for me. Here are more details if you need it: http://geek.theothermartintaylor.com/2011/05/windows-7-sound-issue-reverb-stuck-on.html

I signed up with Skype with an account long ago EarthLink is now closed; I use a "gmail" account now (only). I apparently have a wrong password, so I can't access my Skype account. I can't use the password recovery option, because the system sends the message to the former and firm earthlink account. I can't access my Skype profile to change/update my e-mail address, nor can I contact Skype (apparently) via email, chat, phone, nothing, or in any way to update my account with my new email address. Once changed, then link my Skype account and Microsoft, as well as to get Skype downloaded onto my new computer. Any ideas out there?
