Need Update Manager 4.1 32-bit DSN?

Hi all

I installed vCenter 4.1 on Windows 2008R2 64 bit yesterday

VCenter Server installation was OK.

I used default Microsoft SQL Express as database server...

But during the installation of the Update Manager installation program found no database was created in the previous step.

To this effect, I had to implement 32-bit DSN.

I thought that vCenter is fully 64-bit.

Or am I wrong?

Thank you

  • Files of the Update Manager (download patches) eat space on the system drive. Need a way to migrate the files to another volume.

    I am using vCenter 5.1 U3 with Windows 2008 server R2 edition. C: drive have 64 GB, but most of the time get alert as C: drive is full. When I checked that the folder "Program Data" Update Manager from the c: server busy more than space. I suspect that download files eat my space.

    is it possible to change the location of the download files?

    Hi Mike,.

    To change the default download location:

    1. open the vci - C:\Program Files\VMware\Infrastructure\Update Manager\vci integrity.xml - integrity.xml.

    Note: In 64-bit Windows, the default file location is C:\Program Files (x 86) \VMware\Infrastructure\Update Manager\vci - integrity.xml.

    Search for patchStore.

    C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\VMware\VMware update Manager\Data\

    Note: Your new directory is empty and contain valid metadata. Copy the data from the old directory, or run the update vCenter Update Manager download.

    Replace the location with the favorite place.

    Save and close the file.

    2. restart the VMware vSphere Update Manager Service.

    I hope this helps with your problem.

  • Any need of Update Manager 2 databases?

    Hey guys,.

    We have a farm 4.1, a farm of 5.0 and a farm 5.1.  We are running Update manager on the server vCenter for farm 5.0.  We just build a new farm 5.1 and I noticed that the update to the farm Manager 5.0 shows no task 5.1.  I make sure not to cause problems on farms 4.1 and 5.0, but I thought the best way for everything to be sorted would update Update Manager on the farm of 5.0 to 5.1.  Then point the battery 5.1 servers to update manager in the farm 5.0.  Are there problems with it?  I won't start accidentally updating hosts in other farms, etc., but I think that I have to download an image of ESXi and decontaminate before something bad happens.  Are there other settings that I should check if ensure the upgrade of the Update Manager 5.0-> 5.1 won't cause problems?  I know that I should make a backup of the database as well.

    Thank you

    If I'm reading between the lines correctly, you have separate vCenter for each of your 4.1, 5.0 and 5.1 servers environments. Is this correct, or you manage all your farms with a single instance of vCenter?

    Unless something has changed, the Update Manager can interact with a vCenter server, and you need an instance of VUM for each vCenter, using the same version of VUM as the vCenter server.

  • Installation of the Client VMware Update Manager 6.0 not in the installation menu

    I played a bit with a VMware 6.0 default installation and everything has been installed. After I finished I could not find a way to configure the Update Manager. It was available in the webclient service, but still there is no way (AFAIK) to go to "Admin View" here.

    So I installed the client vSphere 6.0 via the menu autorun and worked well. I found a few screenshots to another installation of VUM and there was a separate button "VUM Client" installation in the automatic menu which I did not.

    After reviewing the DVD, I found the Setup file Z:\updateManager\VMware-UpdateManager.msi, after installing it the VUM Client is available.

    I used VMware-VIMSetup-all - 6.0.0 - 2562643.ISO as an installation source.

    It is normal to do it like that or if the option "VUM customer" is somehow forgotten in the automatic menu? I wonder if you guys probably noticed the same thing.

    Just a plug in c# if I not mistaken, just need him.  Believe me, c# is where you can actually get stuff done unless its something that is deliberately omitted in order to make this horrible thing

  • Service Update Manager 5.5 crashing on Windows Server R2 2012

    Hello

    I try to get VUM 5.5 1 c working on a Windows Server R2 2012, but without a bit of luck.

    Everything installs correctly, Setup detects 32-bit DSN pointing to our SQL 2008 R2 server and database connectivity works. However, as soon as I am scanning an ESXi host available updates the vSphere VMware Update Manager service fails and a dmp file is created under C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware update Manager\Logs.

    Just to be sure I installed Crossover on another server in W2K12R2 own, but the end upwards with exactly the same problem. When I install the product on a Windows Server 2008 R2, it works very well.

    According to the VMware 5.5 VUM compatibility matrix works with W2K12R2, but this isn't for me.

    I enclose the vum-vmware-server log file that contains information about the accident of service.

    Best regards

  • Version number VMware update manager

    I want to install vmware updatemanager, but it displays: this server vcenter isn't compatile with vmware Update Manager.

    My version of vcenter server is: 5.1.0 build 123532

    My 08 R2 64-bit system

    I want to use vmware update manager update my vmware environment. So what version of MUV is necessary the download, thanks!

    Yes, you can download 5.5 and the environment 5.1 to 5.5.

    You will need to start by vCenter, then ESXi hosts.

    After you are done before the two, you can go ahead and install VUM.

    Another option is to upgrade vCenter, install VUM and then upgrade of servers using AUVS.

  • vCenter Update Manager install confusion

    I'm finally getting around to installing vCenter Update Manager for our environment vSphere 4.1, but I'm having a nightmare of a time to settle.  VCenter is installed on a Windows 2008 R2 64-bit server, my SQL box is MS SQL 2005 installed on an old Windows 2003 64-bit server.

    Went in several circles between SQL 32 bit DSN, ODBC 64-bit drivers and the unauthorized download service must be installed on the same server as the Update Manager.  When you run the installation on my vCenter server, I get the following message:

    The vCenter Server is incompatible with the VMware vCenter Update Manager you install.  Please select a compatible Server vCenter.

    At this point I don't yet really if I get it to talk to our SQL Server or not.  I want just the installed software.  If anyone knows what's the magic combination to get everything going, I would really appreciate the info.

    hope that the 4.1 version of the vCenter server. In this case, if the version of the 4.1 Update Manager must be installed with the hassle. If the server vCeneter is 4.1 and Manager Update 41U1/U2, then installation will fail with the above error. 41U1 is not comaptible with 41 VC. Please refer to the software compatibility guide. http://www.VMware.com/PDF/vSphere4/R40/vsp_compatibility_matrix.PDF

  • Problem with upgrade after upgrade to vCenter Update Manager

    I've just updated vCetner to 5 and went to upgrade the Update Manager, but the installer says that it cannot connect to the DB.

  • vCenter update manager install - vcenter server isn't compatible?

    I try to install vcenter update manager.  I tried the two 4.0 update 1 and 4.0 Update 2.  Both give me an error in the first step of the installation when I specify our vcenter server, port, username, etc.  He states:

    "vcenter server is incompatible with the vmware vcenter update manager that you are installing.

    We run vcenter 4.1.0 (build 258902).  I can't find any information on this error.  Was hoping to find an answer here before opening a SR with vmware.

    If you use vCenter 4.1, you must install VUM 4.1, which can be located on the vCenter installation CD in the folder updateManager.  VCenter is a 64-bit application, VUM is not and still requires a 32-bit DSN.

  • Update Manager: it updates Virtual Center or just the ESX servers?

    Hi all.  After months of inactive Update Manager, I finally got it going again and so I need to install approximately 6 months of updates on my ESX servers.  This is the easy bit.  But how can I update my virtual server to the center of update 1-2.5 2.5 update 4?   Update Manager at level Virtual Center for you or is it a manual process?  That is to say.  Do I need to download the ISO and do an inplace upgrade?   Thanks in advance for any help

    see you soon

    The process of upgrading to vCenter is separated from the Update Manager. Download vCenter media - save your vCenter database and then run the installation program - it will do an upgrade on the spot.

  • Install the Update Manager

    OK, I tried this at least 5 different times, and its doesn't work simply do not.

    I have install ISO MU.  It starts the installation, I put the IP address of the VC (vCenter 4.0) I put my DSN (he discovers during the installation).  I plug my values of connection, I tried a local account, I tried a Windows account and I tried a SQL account, they ALL work fine.  I can connect to the database as SQL admin, I created another account to SQL, Windows account, Local account, the domain account, every account I don't see.  I tried the installation with all THE of them.

    Whenever I restart the machine.  I tried to install MU as a Local Windows user and a domain (with administrative rights) user.  I had to do ALL this with vCenter 2.5.  It was not that difficult.

    Now, for some reason, I restart wildlife / machine.  No matter what I do I get an error that it cannot find UM (it gives me the name of the computer) but it is there, the installation is not complaining, it does not actually install worked perfect every time.  I can see the task for UM in the scheduled task, so I know the part works, but every time I activate the plug it says there is a problem connecting to the database of UNIFIED Messaging.

    So where can I find the logs?  Nothing shows up in Windows application except restarted service newspapers.  I can't understand this, everything else works.  This is a new installation of Windows 2008 Server STD 64-bit.  But this makes no sense.  I can not understand whence the error, it is the newspaper of VC?  I can't make pile or face of this, since vCenter works nothing else I have problems with.

    Update Manager is not compatible with Windows Server 2008.

  • vSphere requires a 32-bit DSN

    When you move to the installation of vSphere, if on a host Windows 64-bit x 86 compatibility mode, it takes a 32-bit DSN for database connection.

    If a DSN has been put in place through Start & gt; Administrative Tools & gt; Data sources (ODBC) vSphere Setup will not be able to use this DSN.

    Tool administrator ODBC 64 bits that can be invoked from the control panel to manage the user DSN and system DSN used by 64-bit process, but for the 32-bit data sources, the 32-bit ODBC Administrator tool is used for Windows on Windows 64 (WOW64) process.

    To configure a DSN 32 bit launch the 32-bit version of the Data Source Administrator. It is located in the: %systemdrive%\Windows\SysWoW64\Odbcad32.exe

    OK, now that we have covered, my only question is WHY?  vCenter 64-bit, 64-bit OS, 64-bit SQL, ESX database is now 64-bit... so, why the limit of 32-bit.

    We take two small steps forward to take one GIANT leap... And I must ask, what does VM Ware?  Why, oh why can't he be MORE thorough.  It's mind-boggling to hoops to make it work, it is really back.

    RParker wrote:

    Maybe because what it does not really matter. Make a 64-bit application actually use more memory (because all pointers and many other types of data, in its structures of duplicate data in size).

    It does not matter?  Hmm... you did not use the 64-bit applications for a long time have you?

    No, not for a long time.  Located only 10 years (IRIX 6.4 on the original SGI servers) and Digital UNIX on Alpha.  You have assumed, with no knowledge of who I am, or what I do for a living, somewhere, I'm an ignorant who doesn't know my donkey to my elbow.  Well, I have news for you.  I run one of the largest supercomputers in the world to live, one 64-bit from the beginning, because we need the applications to use more than 4 GB of RAM (we had a system with 256 GB of RAM in 2001).  In other words: I know what I'm talking about.

    Everyone can see that they are MORE robust and work better than 32-bit.  Seek to vSphere, it WAS 32-bit before, NOW the performance is much better, coincidence just HAPPEN when they converted to 64-bit?  I do not.

    They have had the time to fix bugs.  From 32 to 64-bit is completely irrelevant to this.  It is also possible to write good stable code in 32-bit and 64-bit.

    And why do companies that manufacture products HAVE 64-bit it a POINT they offer 64-bit support '?  Yes, it does not matter?  Only for people who do not pay attention to new technologies.

    It's called "marketing."  A lot of gullible bettors will think "64 is larger than 32, 64-bit must be better, right?" without really thinking about what it means.  The result: a lot of fat software, sales and big bonus of the commission.

    and vCenter isn't anywhere nearby which great - then there's really no need to make the 64-bit application. You would have nothing to win and probably lose some performance. OK, so 64-bit-to-end can be more 'clean' but that's all.

    Do you read the fluff or technical manuals?

    Technical manuals and experience 15 years as a sysadmin and programmer in high performance scientific computing.

    It's not at all... 64-bit isn't the following watchword is the FUTURE for existing technologies.

    Agreed.  Where did I say it was a buzz word?  Where I said that he should not be adopted?  Where did I say that the technology itself is not important?  I don't have.  All I said was that for this particular application, switching to 64 bit is not important.

    AND my point is that if they did the rest of the 64-bit products why they left these?

    For precisely the reason that I said, which you seem to have ignored.  This client is a small application.  He doesn't have to manage large amounts of data.  operating systems 64-bit x86_64 can execute 32-bit code in native mode, with no drop in performance.  Therefore, it is quite understandable that VMware is converting this application 64 bits a low priority.  On the other hand, converting server components 64-bit has been much more important, because they manage more large amounts of memory. ESXi itself, for example, must be able to manage physical servers with very large amounts of RAM, and this is something that cannot be done effectively with a 32 bit OS.  Then, of course, they did it first and left the customer server components to last because making 64-bit enable all new features or functionality.

    Forget all the ideal way to provide more software and better features, it must ALL be compiled on 64-bit then do not flip flop or use something else (such as a DSN of 32 bit on a 64-bit OS) ESPECIALLY when 64-bit DSN is backward compatible...

    Yes you can defend 32 bit all you want, to the people who KNOW the real difference, is there more to him than just double the number.

    No, it isn't.  The transition from 32-bit does nothing to increase stability.  If I write a request for a 32-bit system and then recompile it for 64 - bit, all bugs that had as a 32-bit will always be there in the 64-bit program.  It may be even more, due to invalid assumptions about the size of some data structures.  I would like that you describe to me exactly what you think it's more 'to him' (1) double the number of bits in certain types of integers and (2) double the number of bits in pointers, so that they can meet flat spaces of memory greater than 4 GB.  Enlighten those of us who went through the 32-> 64-bit transition 10 years ago and obviously missed something.  Please, I beg you.  The Linux community would like to know, too, since apart from those two things, there is no difference between a 32-bit version of Linux and a 64-bit version.  The same source is used for both versions.  Which is probably true for Windows 7, although of course I don't have access to the source code to check.  I certainly used to compile my Windows programs for two 16 - and 32-bit versions of Windows from the same source code, at the time it was necessary.

    In high performance computing stuff that I run, we actually moved some 64-bit to 32-bit applications, because the additional memory required for 64-bit slower (more RAM required results in a greater frequency of the CPU cache misses leads to reduced performance).  The difference can be very important, because the cache is about an order of magnitude faster in terms of latency than main memory, so if one asks who managed to run almost entirely into the cache, then that grows the cache, the performance drop can be huge.  Not all of this serves to something like the vSphere client, because it is not a CPU-bound application.

    This is not the same as the shift from 16-bit to 32-bit of the 1980s.  In this transition, stability has been improved, but it wasn't because of the increase in bits.  It was because of the additional memory protection features available in 32-bit modes of 386 processors and later, compared to that of the 8086 and 80286, and Linux, OS/2 and Windows NT all took advantage of this.

    Kind regards
