NET application SAN LUN connection for a virtual computer on the network

Hi guys

I have a LUN of SAN NetApp ready for a virtual computer that is connected to the network.

How can I make the virtual machine network?

I created another vNic and added to it as a secondary virtual machine network, but is there a better way to do this?

Should I be using the VMKernel network and choose iScsi?

Thanks, Julien

Hi Julien,

Introduce the network of the virtual machine as if it were any other network. No need to have a vmkernel, unless you want to create an iSCSI data store.

Set up your network inside the virtual machine with an IP address in the same subnet as your storage space. Try to ping of your storage space for the guest. Configure your iSCSI initiator and present your logic unit number on the virtual computer in your NetApp.

Concerning

Franck

  • Determine the maximum use of the processor for a virtual computer in the custom user interface

    I want to determine the maximum use of the processor for a virtual computer in the custom user interface.  How can I do this?

    If I use a supermetric, there is no kind of attribute under CPU called "maximum use.

    Certainly, you get points for a long question! Although to be fair, it's probably my fault to feed you so much information to digest at once.

    1. I would say you can do two ways visually. Use the operations > detail view for 'normal ranges' use the upper limit of the normal range as your typical max. You want an absolute peak, add the metric of a graph or observe that highlight high and low watermarks.

    2. There are a lot of ways to display data, but if you want to display a single metric over a period of time, we could use the following widgets [on top of my head]:

    Top - N analysis

    Weather map

    Analysis of distribution of data

    Among these, I think of your desire for a "peak". Who you want real value, which eliminates the weather map. Then, I think that the concept of a 'Summit' and what is the best thing, I think that the 95th percentile... then I came with the widget of data distribution. The decision is ultimately yours given your particular use case.

    3. you can have it apply to several virtual machines - it's just a widget capable of being an independent provider or receiving widget (metrics, DO NOT choose to select resources). Each resource/metric will add to the widget and you can remove them if you like after it is added. You can certainly all the time you visit... It is date and time standard options you have in all the other widgets chart. With the widget data distribution, you want as much time as possible to get an accurate histogram of the cycles of workload.

    4. This is similar to the question above. You can certainly add parameters of individual resource or a DM that summarizes or AVG groups of resources. And as above, the delay is configurable, along with the other graph widgets.

    5. it's part of Q4 - you can sumN or avgN up to any number of resources with a SM, then discovers that SM in the widget of data distribution. When I said container, I mean an application, group resource pool... all that acts as a container parent within the vCOps.

    6. that's correct, SMs calc using data collected last points... aka single period of time. When you are referring to the longest period, I gave you a few examples of the attributes that are composed of several periods of time which are calculated and created by the adapter for VMware vCenter behvaior. In this case, you have the GVA 15 min CPU 1.5; These specific simple mobile GVA can be specific OR a copy using SMs. Next, you will have the chance is to find a way to distribute what you need through a widget [at that time].

    7. the distribution of data is not for export, it is for Visual functions. If you want the data in CSV, just use a typical chart of metrics and export to a csv and calc your own pics, avg, 95th, whatever.

    8. This is a bit of a mix of all your questions, put in place.

    You are right, if you added those 3 VMs, then calc was the 95th of the AVG. Like Q7, you would not export the data of the distribution of data because the raw data points are not - you do not pass the metric to a metric graphics standard and export via csv.

  • RDM for several virtual machines on the same LUN

    Hi, I have a requirement for multiple virtual machines to have access to the same LUN filestore. I think create ROW for each virtual computer to the LUN. I wanted to ask if this is possible and if someone put in place before?

    Are there issues making this record to file/san locks?

    Thank you

    Once you add the raw device map to a virtual computer, you can not add it to each other as well.

    It would satisfy your requirement to add to a virtual computer, assign it a drive name or folder, then that spread out and have another card SMV a drive to it?  Depending on what you're trying to do, which can satisfy because it will work.

  • Is it possible for HA / VMotion to migrate a virtual computer when the fiber of SAN connectivity is lost / Cup?

    Use: Version ESX 4 / vCenter4

    I have a cluster with ESX 4 nodes running HA. I want to know if it is possible for vmotion to migrate a virtual computer if the host on which it lives has a loss of fiber optic connectivity to SAN/back-end storage. I can get VMotion to work when I go unplug the Ethernet cable to the back of the esx host, but when I unplug the fiber connections that will freeze the virtual machine and no migration will happen. Is it possible to do this with VMotion HA? I also tried to use aggressive DRS to see if when I unplug the fiber it lose connectivity and a loss of memory or cpu and migrate... so not happened... the vm always reports to vCenter that memory and cpu have not changed... then DRS don't not kick to migrate the virtual machine.

    Thank you.

    There is no such thing for HA. HA only fires when there is a host or a network isolation fails. DRS also does not realize this. However, there are a lot of events that can trigger an action such as "maintenance mode". don't know if there is a for the failures of way, just check it out. It is described in the following pdf document: http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vsphere4/r40_u1/vsp_40_u1_admin_guide.pdf

  • IOPS / s & latency for each virtual computer

    It's my first time to write a script to metrics out of the virtual environment and I'm trying to get out of the latency of disk IOPS and total / s disk for each virtual machine in the environment.

    Here are the relevant excerpts I have at the moment:

    #Get powered on virtual machines

    $VMs = get - VM? {$_.powerstate - eq "Receptor"}

    #Loop through each virtual computer

    {foreach ($vm to $VMs)

    $dskreadlatency = get-Stat-entity $vm - Stat "disk.totalreadlatency.average" - Start $start - finishing $end

    $dskwritelatency = get-Stat-entity $vm - Stat "disk.totalwritelatency.average" - Start $start - finishing $end

    $dsknumberwrites = get-Stat-entity $vm - Stat "virtualdisk.numberwriteaveraged.average" - Start $start - finishing $end

    $dsknumberreads = get-Stat-entity $vm - Stat "virtualdisk.numberreadaveraged.average" - Start $start - finishing $end

    }

    #setting fields to the averages of the stats (I have 4 of them)

    = [string] $fieldX ([Math]: Round ((($dskYYY |))) Measure - Object - average value). Average), 2))

    Unfortunately, I get 0 for all these statistics.  My level settings are all set to 2.  It would be awesome if I could help in this regard.

    Just to make sure that the performance data entry process are correctly configured on vCenter, you see the data for these counters on the performance for the same time interval tab?

  • Maximum processor for each virtual computer cores

    Hello

    I need some advice on the maximum number of CPU cores that we assigned to each virtual machine, as well as the maximum number of processor cores physical on the host machine.

    I stumbled on some features of mention about the virtual processors and virtual cores.  Are they referring to the same thing?

    1 virtual core is equivalent to how many physical basis?  1 virtual CPU is equivalent number of physical CPU or core?

    Appreciate your kind reply on above.  Thank you.

    Concerning

    cleohm

    On ESX 1 vCPU is a logical basis.

    It is a heart in a CPU socket, but could also be logical fundamental of a core (if you have HT enable).

    On ESX/ESXi 3.5, there is a limit of max 4 vCPU for each virtual computer.

    On ESX/ESXi 4.0, there is a limit of max 8 vCPU for each virtual computer, but you will need virtual hardware 7 and a license of the company more

    Hello

    Not really...

    For an environment hosted... If you can access the console of the host, you can always access the console of the virtual machine regardless of the State of the network outside of the console. VMware Workstation, Fusion and server all fall into this category.

    For ESXi/ESX... you need a host outside to access the console of the virtual machine. ESX and ESXi not displayed graphics or VMs of their consoles and management devices. So, you need an external machine that can run the vSphere Client or access to the virtual machine via RDP, VNC according to Guest OS involved or SSH.

  • P2V with the guest who has devoted the fiber SAN LUN connection

    We have a Windows 2003 server that has a SAN LUNS dedicated to her.  It is not shared.  It is only used by this server.   We need to virtualize it but wonder how the dedicated SAN LUNS will be included in the new virtual machine?  Some people in our Department who took the course VMware informs me that there is no way in VI3 for this.  Is this true?

    Looks like he's talking about NPIV that allows each virtual machine to have its own Port.  Discover 86 of the Guide of Fibre Channel SAN Configuration for details.  It would also certainly work.

  • way which restrict what networks is connected to a virtual computer simultaneously

    Hello

    We try to combine the two clusters of different vsphere into one in order to get the best use of our computing resources.  Each group has its own set of networks inside.  In order to consolidate the two clusters, we would need to present the two networks on the same cluster together.  Group A has a unique network and Cluster B has 4 networks located behind a firewall for use off-production.

    Our team of network security was a concern for someone to create a virtual machine with two network cards for a vNIC originally in Group A network connection and an another vNIC connect to a network in Cluster B which is located behind the firewall by creating a bridge between two networks that could bypass the firewall.

    Is there a way to deny the ability to have the network of Group A and B cluster network be on the same VM?  Almost like a rule of affinity when you do not allow two different networks on the same VM?  I couldn't find anything on this point and do not know if this is even a feature support, but I thought I'd see if anyone knew.

    We are running vSphere 5.0 U3 and want to move to vSphere 6 shortly.  We also use switch Cisco Nexus 1000v for both groups.

    Thanks in advance!

    Welcome to the community - if I understand your question, you want to move all hosts in single cluster - if it is the case that the answer is no - if anyone has the ability to create the VM in this cluster they will be able to connect to any network in this cluster - if you put two separate cluster, you would be able to assign permissions to each cluster that allows users the ability to create machines only virtual only within their group.

  • How to change network name for all virtual machines within the same cluster

    We have recently changed name vswitch to take into account that something significant, in the past vCenter could change the labels of networh for all virtual machines... seems this time help labels are not changed (maybe its got something to do with the update vcenter for 2.5.U3)...

    in any case, someone at - it a powershell script that could find all the virtual machines that are referring to the old label network and then changing again the name... ?

    Enjoy the respponses...

    Thanks in advance

    A few things on this blog could help.

    If you know the names you want to use, you could also just use something like:

    Get-Cluster X | Get-VM | Get-NetworkAdapter | Where { $_.NetworkName -eq "OldNetwork" } | Set-NetworkAdapter -NetworkName "NewNetwork" -confirm:$false
    Get-Cluster X | Get-VM | Get-NetworkAdapter | Where { $_.NetworkName -eq "NewNetwork" } | Set-NetworkAdapter -Connected:$true -confirm:$false
    
  • Is it possible under the EULA to have several virtual machines on a single physical hard disk while using the same OS license or do I need a separate license for each virtual computer?

    I have several programs that are not compatible with my 64 bit Windows 7 operating system.  I would like to run each different software under another virtual machine of VMWare (5 packs of different software programs and 5 different virtual machines of Windows XP).  These would all be installed on your laptop.  I can use the same license of Windows XP for each virtual machine, or do I need a separate XP license for each (different XP in case 5 licenses)?

    It is lifted directly from my EULA:

    1. GRANT OF LICENSE.
    The manufacturer that you grant the following rights, provided that
    comply you with all terms and conditions of this EULA:
    1.1 installation and use.  You may install, use, access,

    THE COMPUTER.  The SOFTWARE may not be used
    by more than two 2-processor both on the
    COMPUTER, unless a greater number is
    indicated on the certificate of authenticity.
    Then...
    This means that as long as you are running two or more instances of XP at the same TIME, you agree? Or does this mean that, after you install once, you have reached your limit?
    I imagine that most people (including those who are running Microsoft!) will say that the second interpretation is correct.
    However...
    If this is the case, anyone their hard drive as a backup to clone strategy would violate the EULA!
