Move the VMs of VSphere platform to another platform VSphere

Morning all,

I have to move virtual machines to VSphere platform to another new platform that has just been built.

The two platforms of VSphere are the same (VSpher 4), but one runs by default VSwitch and the new has the software Nexus 1000v switch installed in the new environment. The old platform runs some VMs productions and I was wondering if the ESX host could be disconnected from the bunch on the old platform and moved and connected to the cluster in the new environment, even if each of the platforms have different network configurations. The new environment would be able to see former ESX host and the virtual machines that is held on this subject?

I thought using models of the FVO to migrate virtual machines, but this could be quite tedious.

Any suggestion would be appreciated

Concerning

Mark

Welcome to the Forums - I assume when you say former vSphere environment to the new your allusion to the virtual Center?

If you are that Yes you can remove your old environment of vCenter ESX hosts and add it to the new vCenter trouble-free environment. This can also be done if the old environment is ESX 35/Virtual Center 2.5 with number

I also changed the thread a more appropriate Forum - ESX 4

  • How to move the FILE from one place to another and keep "Indexing" have to move to the unknown location so you can't discover its full file path? Windows instructions provide information wrong re: how to do this!

    Make a bunch of audio files, placed in a folder on my desktop. Files initially sent to RealPlayer to burn, but when finished burning CD and went to read a CD, folder got seized by Media Player, 'Indexed' and disappeared from the office. I'm a relatively new computer user, and I need to learn more about file paths, how to view the path FULL of a file on my computer and how to type (create) full path when I need to. The "Indexing" feature seems to erase this lesson for me, and after having spent four hours trying to find Vista instructions on "How to move the file from one place to another", I gave up! Windows 'Help and Support' on my computer gives wrong directions. It states that if I right click on a folder > properties, a dialog box opens with a tab by which I can move my account. There is no tab location here. I found locations tab when right click on the "Mobile" folder, but still no option to "move file". No idea what is the folder "Roaming" or why it's on my computer. I want my audio files in the My Music folder, but this place is "access denied." Don't know how to get the audio file it in any case, but if anyone has any advice, I would be very happy! Thank you. PS - I had no problem moving folders in XP. I don't like the idea that a computer is to decide where to put my files. I want to control where I put my files. I don't like the way search works under Vista. I liked the XP search companion better because, for a computer fool like me, it was really easy to organize and find files and folders and had an option specific to find audio and video file TYPES.

    Here is an article on how to move your personal folders in Vista: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/moving-your-personal-data-folders-in-windows-vista-the-easy-way/.  If you're talking about the special folders (such as photos, Documents, office...), then here is an article on how to move: http://www.winhelponline.com/articles/95/1/How-to-move-the-special-folders-in-Windows-Vista.html.

    If you have trouble with the search after you move the files, then rebuild the index: http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/2103/vista_rebuilding_the_search_index/.  Here is an article on how to use Indexing Options in Vista that may be useful for you: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/69581-indexing-options.html.

    If the above does not help, your problem seems to relate to the image of the files/folders and their interactions with Media Center (which operate on different other folders).  Please repost your question in images and video Forum at: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistapictures/threads where the people who specialize in issues of the image will be more than happy to help you with your quesitons.

  • Best way to move the file from one server to another VM

    Hello

    We will soon be moving on ESX3.5 45 virtual machines on the same network to ESX4.0 on another network.  What is the best/best way to move these files?  The original network, the files are stored locally on the server and run ESX3.5i.  However, on the other network, data warehouses are on a San and the ESX hosts are in a cluster.  Both networks are in the same physical location and can meet.  I guess I can do it from the CLI of in ESX?

    Thank you

    If you have two hosts in vCenter Server, you can move the virtual machines without Storage vMotion (Powered-off VMs).
    It is not necessary that both hosts have access to the San using cold migration.
  • Move the VM of vSphere ESX 3.5?

    We have a number of former hosts of ESX 3.5 that won't support vsphere.  An idea we are circulating is "retired" these hosts from active service, but to keep them on a secondary site for a cheap solution for DR, the idea being that if we had a problem in Data Center main we could move critical VMs on the site "backup."  The question is; This will be possible if we improve our Production environment to vSphere?  We assume that it would be impossible to make a vSphere ESX 3.5 hot shot, but would it be possible to migrate a computer virtual powered down "backward"?

    Thank you

    Gary

    as long as all your vmotion needs are met, you can migrate live between ESX4 and ESX3.5 hosts.  I leave the obsolete tools and virtual equipment attached to v.4, until your environment on vSphere4

  • Move the HD from one office to another desktop computer

    It is a question about moving the files & applications from one desktop to another. I try to get 1 year of use of existing & software equipment.

    I have an office of stand-alone Dell old 12 years with Windows XP that I use every day at home. I have an old Dell Office of 7 years with XP & no apps or files that I have gained from the work that I do not use.

    I guess the older machine is sick because I have to reset the clock each time I boot Windows. It seems to work otherwise. I want to act before the death of the sick machine.

    A method that I am considering moves chips drive & memory fixed older machine to the latest machine. These two components are less than 3 years. I replaced a fixed disk damaged & added some memory.

    The other method I see is to copy the contents of the fixed disk on the sick machine on the newer machine fixed drive, leaving the components in place.

    I know I need to buy new hardware and new software. I would wait 10 Windows.

    I'd like suggestions on the simple, reliable and cost-effective method to buy more time by using existing hardware.

    To move the data from the user, just install the xp installation cd, search for "other tasks" in the

    menu, search for "File Transfer Wizard", set the pc as old pc, select the file to save, save files

    in a new folder that you created, once its through, out of xp cd. Move the new folder to a cd

    Once through, on the new pc, install the xp installation cd, locate the file transfer, set the new pc, select

    to search for files, installation cd with user data, find the folder on cd, install FTW

    It automatically... Best bet is to run FTW on a new user account, and then move the files to the other as

    necessary. It's one way, others, install the HD from old pc to new, HD set as slave,

    with the HD as a slave, the data can be used with the operating system.

    Windows 10 is already available.

  • Move the Windows Media Player files to another external hard drive

    The hard disk that contains the files from my Windows Media Player 10 is dying.  I need to move the data to a new hard drive that I bought, but have not yet connected to my PC.  Old and new external hard drives are plug-and-play.

    I have a lot of additional information to the library and want to be sure that I don't lose in the process.  However, I have not found anything in the documentation that tells me how to move my database from one hard disk to another.  Can anyone help?

    If music files are in MP3 or WMA format, so most of the information is also stored in the files themselves, so that these information will be retained when the files are moved. There are a few fields that are not stored in the files, such as play account, custom fields and possibly star ratings. In order to preserve these fields during the movement of the library, you can use the backup of the metadata tool.

    I would like to move an image from one folder to another folder and I can't figure out how to do this.  Is this possible?  Does anyone know how?

    Thank you

    It is not as intuitive Vince but you must drag up to navigation in folders, then release.

    I hope explains it to the captain.

    I have only one level of folders deep, but if you have folders in the folders, pretty sure that you can drag it above the folder that you want it to be, i.e. moving the image up a level.

  • Move the host from one cluster to another?

    I have two clusters and I need to move a host from one cluster to another. How can I do this and ask the host to connect to the new cluster instead of LUN LUN the host is connected to?

    Thank you!

    to move the host, you can disconnect and then delete.  Once it is deleted, you can 'add host' in the new cluster.  If you have guests running, you should have your SAN team present the LUNS presented to the new cluster for your ESX host, from the other group.  Then, you can use sVMotion to migrate directly from your virtual machine to the new LUN.

    Once it is completed has your team the 'old' not present SAN LUN and do a new analysis of your storage adapters.

  • Nesting of the VMs for vSphere in-a-box = network problems

    Hello all,.

    I am configuring a vSphere infrastructure of VMware Workstation 8.0.2 for training/tests. The problem is that nested VMS started inside, as virtual ESXi machines cannot reach the physical LAN, no matter if the vNIC is defined in (vmnet8) NAT or bridged.

    All the '1st level VMs' can ping each other and reach the outside world without problem. But if I try a virtual machine inside my virtual ESXi of spam, the virtual machine is unable to enter an IP address of the server DHCP VMNet8 embeeded or since our physical DHCP (with of the ESXi VM vNIC in "Bridged" mode).

    I tried to manually set an IP address to a nested on my VM ESX VM and I managed can ping it... but cannot ping the outside world.

    I'm getting VMware Workstation 8.0.2 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.

    For some reason, I do not understand everything works fine if I try to deploy the same environment using VMware Workstation for Windows... :-/

    I'll appreciate any help.

  • Move the CS5 from one computer to another

    How can I move my Creative Suite 5 Premium of my current computer to another?

    You don't move it, you must install it on the other machine.  You are allowed to hacve that it activated on the two machines if you want to keep it on the first, but if you want to delete or simply do not plan to use any longer on the first machine then you should turn it off.

    If you need to download the files for installation, you can download the demo version of the software through the page linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.

    Don't forget to follow the steps described in the Note: very important article Instructions on the pages to download to this site or the download may not work properly.
