Nested 6 ESXi on workstation 11 - host can see 1 interface 'physical '.

I'm trying to set up a nested ESXi 6.0.0 laboratory under 11 workstation.  The ESXi host sees only 1 custom NICs, one as vmnic0 which is operational and configured in the management interface.  I have three other network adapters configured for the virtual computer but ESXi is not clear make them they show as active and connected from the point of view of 11 s Workstation.  I need at least one more because it does not use the network for iSCSI vKernel management.  The cards, the first of which are configured the same (custom) in my computer.

I dropped the hardware compatibility of 11.0 to NIC 10.0, but always without extra charge.

Any suggestion is appreciated.

If you have another suggestion I'm all ears.

I'm pretty sure that it will solve the problem to add the missing lines already. Please make sure that change you the . VMX file with tab of the virtual machine closed in order to ensure that the configuration file is reread after the change.

  • Windows sharing does not host and guests, but between physical and host computers and the guests.

    Hi, I have a bit of a

    a bizarre with windows shared folders network, I am about to format and rebuild the host, but I figure why not ask you chaps, cos I would lov to see why it does not work.

    So I have a 64-bit Windows XP workstation host 7 but I also uninstalled and tried vm player 3.

    My many comments from winxp ops, vista32 and even a win7 can do all of the windows network shares but cannot share with the host country, they see the host in the "mshome" workgroup and can even ping, but when I try to connect to share on the host I get "host is not reachable. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have permissions.  The specified network name is no longer available. »

    My laptop (win7) and two other physical computers desktop (Windows XP & vista home) can see the host and can use the shared windows resources.

    The host can see the guest in the working group operating systems and I can ping, but once again impossible to use actions.

    I connect to the host, all comments and physical workstations with the same user name and password

    All guests are running in bridge. All firewalls and virus progs are disabled.

    If quick recap

    • You can take and provide each other actions and physical work stations, but not the host

    • The host can take and give shares with physical computers, but not guests

    • Physical computers can give and take action with guests and the host.

    If anyone has an idea about it, I would lov to hear it.

    See you soon

  • 6 ESXi hosts can't be added to Vcenter 5.5 App

    6 ESXi hosts can't be added to Vcenter 5.5 App

    When I add the hosts drop off after 5 min or more.

    When you install or upgrade to ESXi hosts to 6.0 you cannot add them to vCenter Server Windows or device.

    It's real reason in the upgrade path, you must first upgrade the vCenter before ESXi hosts. See the sequence below:

  • -OS - how host can be installed in ESXi FREE?

    Hello

    Please forgive me, it's maybe a stupid question, but I'm not familiar with VMware.

    According to titled question this discussion is:

    -OS - how host can be installed in ESXi FREE?

    Whit another word, can be installed on the same ESXi FREE more than a BONE and make this race at the "same time"?

    Or is the FREE edition that is designed to run only one Instance at a time?

    I know that most host on the same physical server required Memomy large and more a physical processor.

    Question:

    How many maximum CPU and physical RAM are supported on ESXi FREE? Correct is the FREE load up to 8 GB of RAM?

    TIA

    Antonio

    If I am mistaken, there is no limitation on access to storage in the free edition, other than the restriction that applies to all editions.

  • If I put in place an openfiler VM as a data store iSCSI & vmfs on two ESXi hosts, both ESXi hosts can access two data warehouses?

    If I put in place an openfiler VM as a data store iSCSI & vmfs on two ESXi hosts, both ESXi hosts can access two data warehouses?

    The reason why I ask, is that I have two hosts ESXi ESXi 4 running.  I do my backups with ghettoVCB, which I modified to create thin backups on one of the drives the.  I then wput them to the server, which causes them to become thick.  Directly targets the backup in a vmfs iSCSI on the server in the face shop.  It would save a step and the vmdk backup should remain thin.

    Thank you!

    The short answer is Yes. If you allow the ESX servers to see the LUN. This setting is configured to the Openfiler.

  • Only one virtual host can reach the door at the same time?

    I installed ESXi 6 on a HP ProLiant DL380p Gen8 and got an operational virtual host. But it seems that no matter what I do, one host can reach the door at one point. All other grandis hosts can ping other virtual hosts and ESXi hardware, but can not get any further than that. And the same is true of outside: I can reach ESXi and a host of outside this subnet, but others are inaccessible.

    I checked that each host is configured correctly and in the same way, and they have different MAC addresses and is even went up to clone a virtual machine that has access to the network, without success.

    The upstream network hardware is not under my control, but they swear everything that should be the cause of this behavior. The ProLiant server has a Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5719, 1Gbps full-duplex. The guests are CentOS 7 x 64, with adapters vmxnet3 (but Intel E1000 adapters exhibit the same behavior). All hosts are on the same port group.

    Any ideas?

    Welcome to the community,

    It sounds as if the physical switch port is secure port, which generally limits the number of MAC addresses that are allowed to 2. Depending on the switch model, this may be named "desktop" mode. Change mode of the configuration of the port to access (or trunk) should solve the problem.

  • VMWare Fusion Pro can see the ESXi data store but not VM on it.

    Hi all

    I have a MacPro 5.1 I am under ESXi on via a USB key. The MacPro has 4 SATA drives configured as stores of data with VM on some of them.

    When connecting to the ESX host through the 'connect to server' Fusion Pro I can see data banks but not the virtual machine.

    The virtual machine can be seen on the ESX host, when connecting via SFTP.

    Any ideas?

    Welcome to the community - no. it is not taken in charge - if you have the storage NAS/NFS, you will be able to access to I for your ESXi host - or if you want to present the end to VM you can access VM shared the CIF

  • Can see LUN but not storage of data on one of the 3 armies ESXi 5.1

    We are currently setting up a new iSCSI SAN in our datacenter, but I'm running into a bit of a problem.

    Everything works beautifully on 2 of our 3 ESXi hosts, but the third host cannot see the warehouses of data to the new San. However, it can see all LUNS. LUNS are presented regularly in the cluster (checked by running the list of esxcli storage base path as in KB VMware: identify the disks when working with VMware ESX/ESXi ) and list of device of esxcli store don't watch not all filters attached on the host of the third. I tried following VMware KB: can not see some or all devices of storage of VMware vCenter Server or VirtualCenter to troubleshoot, but it doesn't seem to be a recommended action if LUNS are consistent. Does anyone know where I could look to solve this?

    Thank you!

    Thanks john23.

    That got me on the right track, I saw in the newspaper that connect to the initiator not was not so I went back to basics and tried a vmkping who has worked and then tried a vmkping the use of frames that failed! It turns out that the MTU for the vSwitch itself has not been configured correctly on the host of the third if the VMkernel ports were.

    Thank you!

  • Tearing the ESXi and VM live hosts to 4.1 and falling in vCenter environment 5.1

    Hello

    Can I please perform the following before the people here to get opinions on how you think it may be...

    Basically, I'm planning a 5.1 vCenter vCenter 4.1 facility upgrade, but I'm not eager to upgrade in place due to my being uncomfortable with the 4.1 - > 5.1 upgrade instability.

    Instead, I built an environment vSphere fresh 5.1, including:

    SSO
    The inventory service
    UU.
    vCenter
    Web client
    SRM

    And he works with the internal certificates.  SRM has been integrated, data centres have been created, OS customizations are in place, empty clusters have been created with the same level of CVS, licenses have been imported and everything looks good to go.

    The next part is to import all hosts ESXi 4.1 of their existing DRS, HA, cluster EVC, which is also protected by SRM.

    However, the problem is that this must be done without interruption for the hosts or virtual machines running.  All NFS stores running the virtual machine.

    So my plan is:
    Unprotect all SRM protected virtual computer (to remove SRM placeholders in NFS and placeholder VMS in vCenter)
    Reconfigure the deactivation DRS clusters, HA (with CVS)
    Remove the cluster (guests will return to autonomous? VM will continue to operate?)
    'remove' host of the old vmware vcenter
    Add a host new vCenter
    Add the host to the cluster again
    Configure the SRM

    I can see from google, that other people have already done, but this doesn't sound sane?

    I want to avoid at all costs, downtime for the VM to place guests esxi in maintenance mode is not really an option.  So I need to check that the above is possible, and that the removal of the cluster will not stop the running virtual machine or to force some kind of hardware installation/panic on the virtual machine because of the VCA mode not more be applied. The VCA mode would be a big problem trying to admit the host/vm to the new cluster if the virtual machine have re-detected hardware of newer CPU...

    Thanks in advance,
    Rob.

    You don't need to remove clusters or move the hosts off the clusters before you attach them to the new vCenter Server!

    We have made the migration in the past (to a vCenter server to another) without this step and it worked fine.

    In the new vCenter server, you can also directly add hosts to the cluster.

    It works very well... unless you use the distributed switches! It is still possible, but requires additional steps.

  • If I use XP as a server and I'm an admin, I can see what programs the workstations are running?

    I want to know if employees use a computer for games & online communication.

    I don't know exactly what you're asking.  If the workstations are running programs that are located on your server, then Yes, you can see which files are open on your server:

    Right click on 'My Computer'-> manage-> System Tools->-> open files, shared folders

    If you want to see the processes that are currently active on other computers, you can use a tool such as "PsList.exe" that can produce a list of active processes on a computer connected to the network, given that you have administrator credentials on the other computer.  PsList is a program in the suite programs PsTools:

  • Why can't I see hosts/guests in my vCenter while I can see them in the Web Client vSphere?

    Hello

    IM new to VmWare\PowerCLI.  The goal is to get a list of VM guests in a vCenter via PowerCLI.  I can see 80 guests when I connect via the Web Client vSphere, but when I use the PowerCLI cmdlets, a Get-VMHost returns nothing.  I did the following:

    1 connect-VIServer the username-password IluvVmWare myserver.acme.com-acme\BigDog connects fine without error.

    2. $defaultviserver | Select * shows me the default connection properties.

    3 get-data center shows me 2 data centers; DC1 and DC2

    4 get-DataCenter DC1. Get-VMHost returns nothing

    5 get-VMHost returns nothing

    6 get-vmhost-Server myserver.acme.com returns nothing

    What I do wrong with PowerCLI so I can't get a dump of the hosts on the vCenter?  I can see them all in the vSphere Web Client, so permissions seem fine.

    It looks like that there.

    You must speak with the vCenter admin I guess.

    More simple would you give permissions to view read-only on the vCenter and let this authorization to spread.

    Out of curiosity, this shows the VMHostname?

    Get - VM | Select Name,@{N='VMHost'; E={$_. VMHost.Name}}

  • Can I add a physical to an ESXi 5.0 Win7 drive without having a virtual drive?

    Hi all

    I have (2) sata drives of 2 TB in my system with a data store created on each. I added a 1 TB drive for the system to use in the hope that I can save the files by doing a physical disk entirely available for my windows 7 VM. The 1 TB drive is completely empty. I can see the drive if I wanted to add it as a data store, so I know that the ESXi system sees it. Y at - it an option not to prune a virtual machine and instead do the available raw drive to the VM Win7?  If it is the difference, my goal is to back up the disks off the Win7 on the physical disk for backup purposes, and I would like to be able to access the raw data off the drive failure instead of trying to get into a virtual hard disk file. When I go to add a disk to the virtual machine, it gives me only the possibility of a new or existing virtual disk.

    Thanks in advance for any help...

    Raw device mapping (RDM) should be used with SAN storage, but you can make it work with local storage as well (it would be not supported).  - http://www.vm-help.com/esx40i/SATA_RDMs.php.
