MSCS and Datacore storage

Hi all

I make several facilities of MSCS clusters in ESX 3.5 and 4 boxes that it worked fine. But now, I'm in trouble with a cluster configuration W2008R2 with a Symphony Orchestra of SAN (FC) Datacore storage server.

I can't find any documentation talking (except a note on virtualized storage).

I am able to viem and configure RDM on a virtual machine on a host, but this disc is not visible by the second VM (on a different host).

The virtual machine has been created to support clustering and disk (RDM) is bound to the physical compatibility.

I hope someone could help me.

Once you have created a RDM on a VM all creating a RDM disk options are greyed out so you can add an existing drive.

This is normal because ESX (i) sees a free uninitialized LUN so no RDM cannot be created.

Maybe these notes on configuring Microsoft Cluster Services with servers using Fibre Channel or iSCSI storage can help you:

FTP://support.DataCore.com/PSP/TBS/TB13_MSCS.PDF

Or check out this installation guide for the implementation of MSCS on vSphere (although I think that it shouldn't be something new for you):

http://www.VMware.com/PDF/vSphere4/R40/vsp_40_mscs.PDF

page 25 discusses adding the RDM existing second MSCS cluster node.

  • Slow iSCSI-IP connection between ESXi and DataCore Virtual storage via 10 Gbit cards

    Hi all

    at the moment, I have test the following configuration:

    Site #1: DELL PowerEdge R730xd with 10 Gbit NIC and DataCore-V DataCore Virtual Storage under ESXi (vSphere 6.0.0 build Standard, 3380124)

    Site #2: Apple MacPro6, 1 with 10 Gbit NIC and ESXi (6.0.0 vSphere Standard, build of 3380124)

    DataCore # 1 server has a disk via iSCSI to ESXi on #2. The connection is running. Up here, so good, but for example when I start a Storage vMotion on #2 of local SSD on the iSCSI disk, speed is exactly 1 Gbps. interesting is that the speed increase when I start a second Storage vMotion and still when I start a third Storage vMotion etc. This behavior is clearly visible in my attached screenshot.

    To me that sounds like to it no matter what iSCSI-IP connection is limited to 1 Gbps.


    All the components used are certified VMware.

    Any ideas that I can check for this problem?

    Thank you very much

    Migo

    The reason for this behavior is that the MacPro6, 1 has two interfaces of iSCSI software that points to a DataCore frontend. It is not allowed. After you have disabled the second interface of software iSCSI, growth up to full 10 Gbps speed.

  • should I get the 32 gig and increase storage icloud or get the 128 gig?

    Should I get the 32 gig and increase storage icloud or get the 128 gig?

    iCloud can't complete really the iPads of storage on board. You can't have apps to run from iCloud, you can't the films played to iCloud, etc...

    If you plan to use more than the 32GBs go for bigger sizes.

  • Mac Pro, Flash Storage, Dropbox, and external storage Solutions

    I am considering a Mac Pro to a computer in the enterprise. I hope someone can give an overview and experience with the dilemma of using a computer with a small amount of storage on board, dropbox and external storage devices.

    Background:

    Mac Pro storage on board - The Mac Pro has limited onboard storage. It comes with a 256 k flash memory and is apparently expandable to 512 or 1 TB. But, I can not even know where to buy the storage upgrade. For some reason, it seems even to be available for purchase on Apple's site. I can't understand how much it costs or where to buy it. I found a link showing how to install it, but that's all.

    Dropbox - Dropbox is an important part of the company, or at least my business. The tricky thing is that Dropbox doesn't seem to work very well if this does not work on an operating system main hard drive. I tried once on a Mac Mini Server, and it does not work well. I read on the Dropbox site that it doesn't work so well. The small amount of storage on board available for the Mac Pro means that it is necessary to use an external drive, which is fine with me, with the exception of the question of Dropbox. Is anyone here from an experience with this problem.

    External storage - the question here is as stated above. How to get an external drive on a Mac Pro, the operating system is not installed on, to work properly. I know that most people could read this and suggest to go to the website of Dropbox support for more information. I was able to do that and have nothing. Looking for Mac people who could potentially experience.

    In short, how the hell you upgrade Mac Pro flash storage... where do you get, and how much it costs?  And second, anyone experience using Dropbox on a Mac Pro, where the Dropbox folder is not located on the operating system drive.

    Thanks for any help that can be provided.

    -Apple does not sell to replace internal storage.

    -You can often find storage on eBay and other places. However, isn't that all in storage for some MacBook Pro model will work in the Mac Pro is much slower. One way to tell is that the MacBook you do not have a heatsink on them while the Mac Pro.

    -You can buy external storage Thunderbolt. To access only a disc both an external case USB 3/disc is about as fast as Thunderbolt. Can get pregnant using the portable 2 1/2 standard SSD

    -I did not all the posts here for the use of DB on an external drive.

  • Database update issue with JavaScript and local storage

    Hi all

    I come from a PHP background and a newbie with HTML5 and JavaScript, and local storage


    Currently I'm building a mobile web application that uses a remote database.

    I have a question about the update database.

    Currently, I set it up so that when the user logs on successfully - Local Storage fields are loaded from the remote database query using a jQuery.Get. This seems to work well.

    When it's time to update the data, I fill the form in local storage, allow the user edit fields, then:

    -a form post to send data to the remote php page that updates the database...

    Here is where I have a question: How can I make sure the edit went through good - what is better to do it now?

    -Can I set up a json response to say whether or not the update was successful

    or

    -Query the database once more and recover the fields to compare the edit results

    or

    -Another technique to do of course change it went through OK

    - then if successful, I can update the local storage

    Q: what is the best way to ensure that the database has been correctly updated (and also not lose time with Access database useless)?

    Is there a recommended for this?

    In addition, if possible this beginner can use a clear example...

    Why not to use jquery get () callback status where if the success is returned then to update local storage?

    best,

  • Change the PowerCLI Script to use the DRS and DRS storage

    Hello

    I have a PowerCLI script that specifies a host and a data store to create a new virtual machine, which has served us well. Now we have activated the DRS and DRS storage and I wonder what to change in order to take advantage of these features. Are there commands to specify a cluster and the cluster data store and let the DRS to decide the initial investment for a new virtual machine? At the moment we put all hosts and the warehouses of data as variables and use them in the line below.

    Thank you.

    $newVM = New-VM-name $NewVMname - VM $TemplateName Datastore - $datastore - VMHost $vHost - confirm: $false - location $myName

    You set a Datastorecluster?

    If Yes, then you can replace the value of parameter data with the datastorecluster object store.

    Replacing a VMHost with a cluster is not taken in charge I'm afraid.

    But you can use something like this

    New-VM-name TestVM Datastore - DSC - ResourcePool (Get-Cluster-name mycluster |) Get - Resourcepool - name of resources)

    This will automatically select the VMHost.

    The virtual machine appears in the root of the cluster.

    DSC is the name of a datastorecluster in the cluster mycluster

    Hi all:

    I got a two host clusters that uses a shared SAN storage where my VM files are stored. Storage hosts is an aggregation of the two 1 Gbps link

    path and so efficient throughput of 2 Gbps.

    Now I need to install a virtual machine that will host our proxy server (Squid). Proxy servers needs a flow of large I/O structure of the disk cache. So I'm

    Whereas by deploying somehow using two VMDK. One with the operating system and software, say vm.vmdk file and the other to the cache on the disk,

    tell the vm - 1.vmdk file.

    My idea is to put the file vm.vmdk on the storage, as well as other VM, I got, by putting the vm - 1.vmdk file to local storage, so does not link of 2 Gbps. say that

    This SAN storage named "san_storage", host local storage is named 'a_local_storage' and local storage of host B is named 'b_local_storage '. So vm.vmdk is

    on "san_storage/vm/vm.vmdk" and is shared both host A and B. say that VM begins to run on host A, vm - 1.vmdk file is "a_local_storage/vm/vm-1.vmdk".

    I would like to know is there is a way, by script or so, to change the configuration of the virtual machine in a way which when I do a host migration has to B, the second disc of the host

    virtual machine will be disconnected "a_local_storage/vm/vm-1vmdk" and will be linked to "b_local_storage/vm/vm-1.vmdk" at VM startup on host B.

    I don't want to copy 'vm - 1.vmdk' from one host to another, because the proxy server parce que le serveur proxy peut peut fills again.

    Is it possible to do? Or is - anyone has another solution?

    I use ESXi 5.1.0 799733 on the two hosts with a license that allows vMotion and using vCenter 5.1.0.5300 build 947940 to manage.

  • 2 Server ESXI and 1 storage

    Hello

    I have ESXi Server (HP) 2 and 1 storage (promise VTrackE610F). Is it possible to put the two server on a single storage and a partition? ESXi should be used on storage.

    Do I have to follow some important and necessary steps? Does anyone have experience in it?

    Hello

    As has already been said the best to do is install ESX in the internal disks of each server and then sharing a logic unit between the 2 servers number, just formats the data store in a server and do a new analysis on the other node.

    If you found this information useful, please consider awarding points to 'Correct' or 'useful '. Thank you!!!

  • The limited size of the premises plan (size of primary and backup storage?)

    Means the primary storage AND backup storage is limited to 350 MB? It makes sense that they would have the same size, ensuring only that's how it works.

  • Documents and data - storage leak (bug?)

    Hello

    iPhone 64 GB, ios 9.3.2 6s.

    The question is:

    Documents and data to develop up to 32 GB (what I saw), as seen on iTunes and the phone ran out of free space.

    This happens already months ago, I did not find any application causing it or either messages or e-mail account, I finally had to make full backup and restore via iTunes to purge this unknown space. I thought that behind me, but still, less than months then after full restore documents and data weight approximately 32GB, that's enough, before I restore once again, someone has an idea?

    I tried everything to locate the space of simple storage up to PhoneClean, safeeraser, iFunBox management screen, I have no idea what is causing this problem...

    also tried google the question, found only on the topics related to applications causing, but I already tried to remove all his apps manually one by one, which did not help

    We hope to get some intel.

    Thank you community

    Try to restore as new, not backup your backup is probably damaged. The fact that this has happened two times points to an application or system corruption in the backup. Then download apps you want from scratch. I had to do it myself in the past, unfortunately, no fun, I know.
