MSCS cluster on hosts cannot find Quorum RDM

Have Setup 2 x W2K3 for MS Cluster nodes, network connections configured and assigned a RDM 1 GB formatted as NTFS disk Basic. Second node can connect to 100% to the same storage and networking - 2nd node was set offline.

When you configure the pool, it cannot locate a Quorum disk even if there are drive Q: RDM sitting there. Says "'the quorum disk could not be located by the cluster service". " I took care to configure the network elements before storage so I do not have a signature of disk set-config.

Anyone has any suggestions I can try?

I have installed recently 2 MSCS each with 2 nodes.  2 things I discovered during the process was first to add the RDM readers for only 1 node first.  Get the first installation of the node added to the cluster and add the disk to the second node and add it to the cluster.  The second thing I discovered was to store the RDM file on the shared storage.  In my view, that it says store with VM or the data store.  Select the data store, and the store of data that you want to save the file.  To add the disk, make sure you select Add existing disk and that it points to the location of the first node and the *.vmdk the quorum disk and data.

You must also make sure that each node is configured to use a new SCSI (1: #) and that each node has the same disc using the same number of SCSI.  In addition, SCSI mode must by physical if I remember corrctly in the documentation.

I hope this helps.

  • The host cannot be admitted to the current cluster Enhanced vMotion compatibility mode.

    Hello everyone

    Here's the situation...

    I have:

    vSphere 5.1 Cluster with two 5.1 ESXi hosts and configuration VSA.

    vCenter Server running on a virtual Windows Server 2012 machine.

    Task: Transfer virtual vCenter to a physical machine.

    I have install the physical machine with Windows server 2012.

    Installed vCenter 5.5 (hosts Newer then the ESXi 5.1)

    VSA installed Manager (VSA Cluster 5.5)

    When go to VSA Manager I am introduced to the following screen...

    vsa_manager_24-10-2013 10-17-19.png

    Recover DOES NOT work!

    Full move operation DOES NOT work!

    It recognizes the Cluster AUV-> check availability (is online and OK)-> begins to create the Cluster VSA and it fails with the following error...

    Move the cluster host

    VSA HA Cluster

    The host cannot be admitted to the current cluster Enhanced vMotion compatibility mode. Under voltage or suspension of the virtual machines on the host can use the CPU features hidden by this mode.

    Could someone please help?

    Thanks to you all! This problem has been SOLVED as follows...

    • VCenter Server go to--> "C:\Program Files\VMware\Infrastructure\tomcat\webapps\VSAManager\WEB-INF\classes".
    • Open the file "dev.properties" with Notepad
    • Change the line that says "evc.config.baseline = lowest" to 'highest = evc.config.baseline' and save the file.
    • Perform the SERVICES. MSC and reboot 'VMware VirtualCenter Management Webservices'

    After that it of back in the VSA Manager and run it again 'Cluster of VSA recover'!

    Now, the wizard should be able to add hosts to the inventory, create the HA Cluster and add hosts to the HA cluster and configure Cluster HA.

    Done everything! :-)

  • VM appearing as invalid - cannot find a host to turn

    Hi people.

    I have a good size ESX cluster, with about 20 guests and Enterprise Plus licensing. I recently did a power down/up to my full and all installation, but a handful of VMS is returned properly. About 5 of my virtual machines came as "Invalid", and if I try to turn it on, I get the error message "cannot find a Web host to turn on/off the virtual machine.

    Here's what I tried. I work with one of them now, assuming that once I have found the silver bullet for the first, the rest will be the same.

    -Just remove the virtual machine to inventory and add it again (no change)

    -Remove and adding it to another cluster (no change)

    -Withdrawal, adding to a different cluster and the pool of different resources (no change)

    Other virtual machines in the same data store, on the same host and on the same resource pool came without any problem. I'm looking in the vmware.log in the data store file and the last thing I see in there is the virtual machine stop before my power cycle.

    I checked my alarms/settings on my real hosts and I can say that this is not a HA question, but I'm definitely over my head here. As the current failover is 9 armies and configured failover ability is defined on a single host.

    The virtual machine itself is a simple configuration with 2 VCPU and 4 GB of ram, and the cluster on that I try to start it has 10 hosts, 80 processors and 600 GB of RAM.

    I don't know what to try next. I can't change the settings when I add the virtual machine itself - the setting isn't there. (All I have is a power on button, basically)

    Any ideas would be really appreciated. I am a relative novice and I am trying to troubleshoot a production environment, best I can without breaking anything.

    Thank you!

    In this case, you will need to either connect to the console or via SSH and change the virtual machine's .vmx file permission of "- rwxr - xr - x" running

    755 #chmod CAL - GW - ARCSIGHT1.vmx

  • Windows cannot find gpedit.msc?

    HI Savan N,.

    Happy New Year to you, I wanted to know why I can not ge in "Computer Configuration", when you type "gpedit.msc"
    He gave you an error message "Windows cannot find gpedit.msc"

    Another thing when I used "regedit" and navigate from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\WindowsNT\SystemRestore,.
    to remove the Configuration value 'disable', will I double click to remove the value or right-click then delete?

    Best wishes

    gpedit.msc is located in windows\system32 and memory that it doesn't come with Vista Business they don't think Vista Home or Premium gpedit users need.

    and on the deletion you simply right click and delete or just left click and use the keyboard not the BACKSPACE Delete key. Double click on the button simply you can edit the value contained by the key

  • Poor with RDM only when added to the CAB MSCS cluster performance

    Hey guys, thanks for taking a peek at this question... I'm looking for some ideas.

    I have 2 virtual machines running Windows 2008R2.  They put MSCS in place and works as a taxi (cluster across boxes).  I use a 7500 VNX, fiber channel and RDM physical drives.  Is on an 8 node ESXI 5.1 v1117900 implemented.  Functionally, everything works fine.

    The problem is that the performance is very poor on only the RDM that have been added to the MSCS cluster.  I can take the same drive, remove the cluster, run IOmeter and it's fast.  I add to the cluster, MSCS, leaving in storage, and it is 1/15th the IOPS performance / s.  Remove the drive of MSCS and it goes back to when you run as usual.

    I tried different controllers SCSI (LSI Logic SAS vs Paravirtual) and it doesn't seem to make a difference.  I have physical MSCS clusters that do not seem to present this kind of performance problem, so I wonder if it was not something goofy with the MSCS on the configuration of virtual machines.

    I've already implemented in this article: http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1016106

    I saw this poor bus rescan the performance issue until I put the RDM perpetually booked, but it was not a problem since I implemented the fix.

    For any help or suggestion is appreciated...

    Thank you

    Recently, I upgraded my esxi from 5.0 to 5.1 environment and have a bunch of systems with RDM. I had a problem as well. What I found, was that during the upgrade it changed all the policies of path to the LUN and rdm, it's the turn of robin. This causes a huge performance issue in my environment. I changed all the paths to MRU and it solved the problem.

  • Cold migration of MSCS cluster node clients?

    Work on the establishment of a MSCS cluster on 2 hosts.  The hosts are the ESXi 5.5 build 1892794.

    My shared disks are RDM compatibility mode physical that I have attached to a second SCSI controller in physical sharing mode.

    My cluster validation wizard is successfully completed.

    However, if I turn off the guests, everyone migrate to a different host (with FC to the RDM LUN connectivity), turn on and then run the cluster validation Wizard error e/s disk wizard reports on tests of arbitration and failover.

    I learned that when I see these mistakes I can unsubscribe the VMs, detach the storage from the host, restart the host, attached storage, re - save virtual machines, and then validation is successful.  However, it is a bit complicated and if I say lose a blade and need to put one of my guests node elsewhere, I want to do without the time and hassle.  Is this possible?

    I know vMotion is not supported with the physical bus sharing, but this ban applies to cold (power off) so migration?  Or is this an indication that I screwed up my configuration?

    Any thoughts would be great.

    Thank you

    Here's what VMware has sent:

    =======================

    -A virtual machine that has a ROW in a MSCS cluster connected in physical compatibility mode cannot be vMotioned.

    -Even if you do a cold vMotion (stop the virtual computer, then vMotion), the ROW could be detected as vmdk and you may need to remove
    She and present it back or re - enter as you mentioned.

    -Best practices recommend Vmware are that - before the migration, remove the ROW of the virtual machine, and then migrate the virtual machine. Once the
    VM was vMotion, then you can attach the RDM to the virtual machine.

    Unfortunately there is no work around on this
    scenario.

    ======================================

    So I guess the cold, you can migrate the MSCS cluster nodes but sometimes it does not work quite as well and so its best to remove the ROW before migration cold.

    Thanks to all who have posted!
