• VMware esx 3.0 in vmware workstation

  Hello

  I am experimenting with using vmware esx 3.5 on my PC.  My PC is not vmware esx 3.0 compatible.  I've heard that I can install vmware workstation and then install vmware esx 3.0 inside vmware workstation.

  Does anyone know how it works?  What type of vmware workstation with this work?  Is it complicated to do, that requires a lot of configuration?  Or is it simple?

• VMware ESX version and build #.

  Hi all

  Y at - it a sort of table or list that displays all versions and build number of ESX 3.5 and ESXi 3.5? I know that whenever I run the Update Manager and there is an update of firmware, build number changes, and I have to go to the download section of the vmware.com website to compare construction #. I am looking for a central place with details about each version and build #.

  Also, apart from the VMware Commnities, are there other sites third popular forum/support?

  Thank you!

• VMware ESX 3.5 and MSCS

  Hi all

  I noticed the MSCS in the release notes for ESX 3.5 indicating that VMware is not supported in this version

  http://www.vmware.com/support/vi3/doc/vi3_esx35_vc25_rel_notes.html (about halfway)

  Is there an official answer as to why this is, it is not supported?  I'm running on 3.0 production systems in this scenario, and I fear that an upgrade will cause problems

  Any help would be apprecated

  3.5 MCSC 1 update is supported

  Support for Microsoft Cluster Service (MSCS)

  VMware ESX Server 3.5 Update 1 supports the Microsoft Cluster Service.

  Support is similar to ESX Server 3.0.1 with the following additions:

  -The customers of Windows 2003 64-bit and 32-bit are supported with MSCS.

  -Start-up of the SAN for virtual machines by using MSCS is now supported.

  -The majority node set of clusters with application-level replication (for

  for example, Exchange 2007 Cluster Continuous Replication (CCR) is now

  supported.

• VMware ESX 3.5 and disabling carrots

  Hi all

  We have a Cluster ESX from VMware ESX 3.5 U3 that was built for a specific product that has a licensing model that doesn't fit well with the virtual server running model.

  The basis of this cluster is 3 x BL465c G1 Dual Core servers HP with 16 GB of memory each. We're going to run out of memory, and I can't add memory without add because of the architecture of AMD processors.

  Adding more CPU will have a big impact on licensing costs - once again not the licenses of VMware.

  I want to do is add a second processor DC and then use BIOS to disable half of the cores in each processor.  This will allow me to add an extra 16 GB memory per server and stay within the limits of the license.

  My question - has anyone with disabilities hearts on a host ESX from VMware, specifically after ESX has been installed. All that needs to be done?

  I tested the disabling function of carrots on a Windows Server and who did replace the drivers, I was wondering if VMware ESX should similar updates / management.

  Rob of TIA.

  You'll be fine, apart from the fact that, by adding the Jepp second you will need an additional CPU, per ESX host licensing doesn't mind.

• What is the most effective way to change a demo, training and evaluation of the recording mode?

  Often I want to record a software simulation in demonstration, training and evaluation, or at least in two modes.

  After registration, I have to make some changes, for example, I want to change "click field Contact must be completed" to "in the Contact field, click the fill button. So if I want to use videos as a demo, training and evaluation, I have to review even three times. Is there an easier way to do it?

  N ° you must edit each output separately.

• PE2950, virtualization and VMware ESX 3.5.2 technology bios setting

  I PE2950 with VMware ESX server 3.5.2 is installed.

  The activation of the "Virtualization Technology" BIOS setting (under information CPU) will cause problems with the operating system? (it was disabled when installing ESX on it – default setting)

  
  

• Check the number and size of the partitions on VMware ESX

  As I am not responsible of the ESX host facilities, but will be responsible for the final ESX cluster I would check the configured partitions configured by our Tec facility to ensure that all hosts are configured correctly.

  Does anyone know of a CLI command to view the partitions (points of size and editing) of an ESX host.

  Paul

  P.S. I've tried using the df - h command, but I'm only displays a limited number of partitions, i.e.; / Boot and/var/log

  Evening,

  VDH h will show you all partitions, including those controlled by the VMKernel.

  Thank you

• KB 1008130: Failure of VMware ESX and ESXi 3.5 U3 of e/s on the queue (s) SAN LUNs and LUN is blocked indefinitely

  Does anyone have more information about the current alert to support "all of you who have upgraded, or are planning to upgrade worms, ESX 3.5 Update 3 or ESXi 3.5 Update 3, please read the Article 1008130"? ".

  Ko describes possible symptoms and identifies the affected ESX 3.5 U3 version, but the resolution is a bit vague. I understand they are working on a fix but,

  1. Is it related to a specific build of U3?

  2. Are there precautions that we can take to minimize the risk?

  3. What is the scope? My hypothesis is not very because 3.5 U3 has been a while and I know this support alert is recent.

  4. Anyone experence this first hand... at what level... There you said what though it is indicated in the KB?

  I didn't have symptoms on the hosts I've 3.5 U3, but I planned improvements to several hosts this weekend and would like to know if I have to go through the painful process to cancel or reschedule.

  3.5 has the robin load balancing experimental, but who would not count as a path failover (I don't think).

  You can force the LUN through a certain path, it might take a few attempts on Lun busy because the load balancing cannot be changed when an INTERNATIONAL organization is pending (this is how works iCSSI HW).  When you fail switches that nevertheless taken into account as a path failover, so I don't know how that comes in re: this issue when no LUN use this path.

  For more security perhaps you put a hold:

  • DRS

  • SSH logins

  • Backups

  • Restorations

  • Clones

  • on/off switch

  • etc, etc, etc.

  While the path are past failovers.

  If a path fails on a single host, I would be surprised if it affects other hosts.  Guests will book the file on the VMFS file system when they need to update the metadata or write data, I think that should continue its work.  However, if you take a switch, you may have failures in path on all of your guests...

• How do you know what was the latest patch installed on VMware ESX Server 3i, 3.5.0 207095

  Hello guys,.

  I've been running an old server that was installed in a test system on workstation DELL - Optiplex GX620 (32 bit).

  During installation, I had to confirgure the file: /usr/lib/vmware/installer/Core/TargetFilter.py to change the following line:

  "interface returned. GetInterfaceType() == ScsiInterface.SCSI_IFACE_TYPE_IDE' as follows:

  "interface returned. GetInterfaceType() == ScsiInterface.SCSI_IFACE_TYPE_ISCSI' this is it worked and I used it for 3 years now. However, right now, I was hoping to be updated with the latest patches and updates and I do not know if I just ESX or ESXi, or what was my last update, and what it takes then.

  I used this command to get the following result:

  # vmware - v

  VMware ESX Server 3i 3.5.0 build-207095

  ... I think that the 3i says I have an ESXi 3.5.0 but build 207095 the buid even as ESXi 3.5.0 patch 5?

  If this is not the case, how should I do to update? What is the KB # I should download?

  I can manage using vSphere Client 5.5 and I can't SSH using PuTTY.

  Note: When I run... "# esxupdate - bundle = ESXe350-201302401-I - SG.zip updated ' of in the folder where his property in the data store, nothing happens... just a new line scrolls.

  Also...

  ... is there any update for this system? I therefore believe that the patch software etc was not around when I was installing this server in 2010.

  Based on KB http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1014508 you run ESX 3.5 Update 5.

• VMWare ESX Server training

  Hello experts,
  I'm new to vitrualization.
  I installed vmware workastation v 7.0 and I also have VMWare ESX Server training Trainsignal dvd for training so here are my questions:

  Can I install VMware vSphere Hypervisor 3.5 on my VMWare Workstation 7.0 for training v?

  Is - this VMWare vSphere Hypervisor 3.5 product different from VMWare ESX Server 3.5?

  I'm you ask all these questions because I want to be sure I can complete a training with VMWare vSphere Hypervisor 3.5 suite drive of my Trainsignal VMWare ESX Server 3 and because I am not allowed to download the evaluation version on VMWare ESX Server 3 and because the VMWare customer service could not answer my simple question and quoted me to the community by them to get advice.

  Thanks in advance for your help and advice.

  Hi nasolsi,

  Can I install VMware vSphere Hypervisor 5 straight on my VMWare Workstation 7 training without affecting my HDD physical whole?

  Yes, it has nothing to do with your actual score and highlights form the part of space, he took from your partition to create the disk of the virtual machine. So basically it will eat the space in the physical partition but does nothing else like the formatting of the entire disk.
  

  
  

  and the performance on my PC?

  No, this will not affect your PC's performance as the workstation will run the pages of RAM and cycles on your physical PC hardware microprocessor.

  
  

  If permitted increase RAM by a value so that you do not encounter CMTF or any other problem. 2048MB is the minimum memory required to run ESXi.

• VMware ESX Server, version 3.5.0 64607 | Assessment - Vmotion?

  Hello world

  I'm just checking on my server VMware ESX vmotion, 3.5.0 64607 copy evaluation, but when I go to the configuration of virtual Center and then tab features licensed Add-ons are grayed out and VMotion is listed as not used.  I am able to request access to this feature somehow?  I need to download the evaluation version of the enterprise?

  Thank you.

  Hi all

  For a new client, I need to show the alarm and ticket slot functionlity vmware ESX server logging settings

  • Use of memory for the server ESX VMW

  While I reduced the threshold value of VMW ESX Server CPU use as beloow format

  WARNING - 5% and STDev.warning - 0

  I made this two days before configuration, but still no alarm generated for this rule.

  Help the creation of a test of the abveo metric ESX alarm

  Hi - I ended up having to do such things in the past as well. I just built a virtual machine added lots of processors and memory, then for the CPU, I used the script CPUBusy.vbs from VMware (Google search which) and down it load times so that he began to max real physical processors... For memory, I just opened a massive text file in Wordpad and scroll up and down it. This gave me the circumstances to test the alarms, just don't do as a busy time or use some dev ESX servers...
