Net-SNMP installation on server ESXi 3.5

Can someone tell me if they tried or if you can install Net-SNMP for linux on a box of ESXi 3.5? I am using SolarWinds to monitor my box, but I am entered in the mode of the server tech support and tried to look for whatever it is SNMP, and he had nothing. So, which leads me to believe that I have to install SNMP on it. Can someone give me the file information that I need to copy on the box and install it? Also, I downloaded the cleint remote CLI and I have all the files needed to get that rough, but I just thought it would be easier now since I am able to ssh to the box.

Welcome to the VMware community forums.  ESXi is not design to allow the installation of the packages, and while it uses a code of Linux (for drivers for example) the vmkernel not Linux based so you can't add Linux packages on the console.   ESXi supports SNMP traps, but not of to and monitoring for the equipment is intended to be made through CIM providers.

  • Single server ESXi on CPU with > 6 hearts

    Hello

    As far I understand count max core for server ESXi (free edition) is 6. What happens if I install it on a box of HP DL385G7 with an AMD 6136 (8 cores) CPU? The installation will fail, or only 6 of the 8 cores will address work? The box is listed in the HCL. With the new range of G7 HP servers, it isn't an AMD based DL385 server processor that uses a processor with a basic under 8 account.

    Thank you!

    Julian.

    > I don't think County processor or core are limited to free ESXi.

    CPU do not count, but free ESXi is still limited to 6 hearts. It will work on 8 or 12 core processors, but use only 6 on each physical processor. 12 cores are only available for Advanced and Enterprise Plus.

  • Update Server esxi

    Hi all, I'm new to vmware.

    I can see most of my esxi hosts are version 5.5 and few are with version 5.1.

    How update 5.1 to 5.5.

    I need to put in the mode of maintenance, and after that please guide me. If I put in maintenance mode the esxi host is removed from the cluster.

    Screenshots would be appreciated.

    2. I am using HP Proliant Servers. one of my server esxi does not support version 5.5 until I update its firmware. With the help of HP ILO I put firmware update, but I have to put in maintenance mode when I update the firmware on the server

    Hello

    1. download the required ESXi image.

    2. Select the host required in the vCenter > Update Manager

    3. click on view images Admin and click on ESXi

    4 import image ESXi and navigate to the directory where is this image > download

    5. the wizard asks you to provide a database name, to give a base name (for example, host_upgrade)

    6. go back to the view of compliance and enter the host in maintenance mode. If the host is in maintenance mode, no VM must reside on it. The host be removed from the cluster when it is in maintenance mode.

    7. click on join, and then select only this base line created containing 5.5 ESXi ISO

    8. click on Scan, compliance status must come as non-compliant. If she starts as incompatible then restart this ESXi host and perform the analysis again

    9. click on take and give a name to the task and keep the default values and complete the upgrade.

    Two things here:

    You must ensure that your ESXi 5.5 is supported on the hardware. You can use Vmware Hardware Compatibility List to verify that

    VMware.com/go/HCl

    Once the hardware is compatible for ESXi 5.5, then you can proceed to the update above.

    In addition, you must put the host in maintenance during the firmware update mode.

  • vCenter Converter Windows 2003 Server ESXi VM keeps failing

    I'm trying to convert a Windows 2003 server to a virtual machine on a server ESXi. I use the option of VMware Infrastructure. My Server works well, and the authentication is successful. However, 1% it still fails with the error:

    I had done. It seems that if you have any software running on a computer backup, it is best to remove or disable. I also cleaned the registry with ccleaner. After all this, the converter has exported the disc in a VM ESXi without problem.

  • Add a new table to the server ESXi 4.1

    Hello

    I try to add a new table on a server ESXi 4.1.0. Is it possible to build the table and add it without restarting the host? The server is an HP ML350 G5. I installed ESXi 4.1 on a hard drive, but I did not install HP driver packages. Is there something I could install from ESXi that would give me the features of configuration of the berries, etc. ?

    Thanks for any help,

    Stem

    Although it is possible (but unsupported) to install tools RIAD on ESXi (see VMware experience before: how to run the CLI of the ACU online HP for Linux in ESXi 4.x) you might have to restart the host still. Reading messages earlier, it would be also better to add the new table by using the ACU (Array Configuration Utility) rather than the ORCA (Option ROM Configuration for arrays). Of these posts, it looks like ORCA could possibly reorganize RAID sets, resulting in a non bootable host.

  • Specialization on a new server ESXi 5

    I want to set up a new server ESXI 5.x for a customer and would like to clarify certain points, if you will allow me.

    1 ESXI 5.x supports up to 32 GB of RAM, correct?

    2. If I have a server with a processor image, I, from point of view of the ESXI, four CPU available is to allocate to the virtual methods, correct? And two quad-cores I'd have 8 CPU is to allocate to virtual methods?

    With ESXI 4.1 I found work two logics CPU very well support a CPU heavily used on a new HP Server as long as my other virtual methods are virtual demand as storage of data or Symantec Antivirus servers servers, etc..

    3. I asked earlier but it's not kosher to overallocate computer CPU? If I have a Quad Core processor and assign 8 Virtual CPU I overuse. Is it always a bad thing with 5.x?

    Thank you very much for the friendly help continues I go out here.

    The backup, you can certainly manually save or use in comments like Windows backup backup. I just wanted to talk because many people don't think that.

    Regarding commissioning, it depends on the workload as I've mentioned before and also depends on how to configure the virtual machines. If you have a 4 core CPU and configure the virtual machines with 4 vCPUs you may soon face questions. However, if you configure the VM with 1 vCPU (or maybe two for individual virtual machines), it would be possible to run 10 virtual machines or more without problems. Everything that you, remember that the host must also some resources.

  • Transfer of virtual machines from a server ESXi 3.5 to new ESXi 4.1 server. What is the procedure.

    I read on how to transfer a virtual machine from one server to another using VMotion. Not 100% clear on the process again. What I see or read is when you do this since an ESXi 3.5 Server ESXi 4.1 server, I do not see any information on, if possible. In addition, I have not read if I need to convert or upgrade the virtual machine until I use it on the new server. So, my question is, are there any special instructions, conversion tools to convert a VM created 3.5 to use on the new Server 4.1? Is there a detailed procedure that I have not yet found or read best describes this process. Like I said up to now I'm not 100% clear on the procedure. Thank you.

    ESX 3.5 VMs can run without modification on a host ESXi 4.1 - VMotion between the two hosts, you will stiil need to ensure CPU compatibility between the hosts.

  • Need to remove a server ESXi

    I have a test server ESXi who accompanies me through and want to install top W2K3. What can I install on W2K3 on ESXi or I have ESXi delete\remove first?

    Delete all partitions with windows install and create one for NTFS. Of course, this will destroy all the ESX information you had on the machine.

  • Mysterious problem - HP DL380 G7 Server - ESXi installs but won't start

    Someone has already seen this? I have a new DL380 G7 server, I have 8 drives and installation with 2 bays, RAID10 (4 discs). ESXi 4 DVD comes from an ISO, I downloaded from HP (and have used on other servers as DL380 G6 without problem). The installation goes by at the end asks me to restart, and then I remove the DVD and restart. The controller, SmartArray P410 is defined as the boot device (there is one in the system) and I even try the F11 at startup and tell it to boot from HD... the screen is blank for a second then the server tries the other boot devices (network, etc.).

    I am really puzzled. During installation, the installer sees the two logical drives very well. I took LogicalDrive0 to install to.

    Thoughts? I'm puzzled.

    I agree with the suggestion of J1mbo . It is a good way to make sure that you install the operating system/ESXi on the expected logical volume.

    Another possible way to make sure that you install on the logical volume is created volumes with slightly different sizes. (I usually create one with only 10 GB for ESXi). In this way, you will be able to take the logic unit number in the Setup program based on its size.

  • Installation server ESXi 4.0 to ESXi Server 4.0 Update 1

    "Upgrade package of ESXi Server 4.0 to ESXi Server 4.0 Update 1.

    Using the download listed above:

    What is the best practice for the installation/upgrade to update 1?  Is this possible via the host update utility 4.0?  And if so, how should we do about this process?

    Thanks in advance, TAndrist

    You should not manually download any file at all.  The host update utility does all that for you.

    Open the utility, add the host ESX (note a hack to run on Win7 before publication U1).

    Click on file, download patches for vmware.

    Then click on "Scan for Patches" and enter credentials for the host to ESX

    Once who did button changes to 'host patch', click on it, then install.

    Make sure that all virtual machines are stopped everything first.

    Please give points for any helpful answer.

  • ESXi 4 Installable &amp; drivers Server?

    Just unpacked my server and test ESXi 4 for the first time. With your traditional Server installation / OS, you can use the hardware vendor (in my case, Dell) CD/DVD to start the installation of the initial server to control the installation of the OS, so that all the drivers are installed according to the needs. Is it the same procedure for ESXi or I simply start directly at the exit of the installation CD and don't you worry about this?

    Thanks in advance.

    Just start the CD ESXi or plug the USB ESXi key and follow the instructions on the screen. Easy as that. No need to install any hardware not related software or drivers.

  • Installation of VMware ESXI 6 in my server

    Hi all

    I have a server that I have configured with raid 1 using the disk on the Server utility.

    When I try to install VMWare ESXI on the server, in the part of the selection of the disk to install the ESXY appears only the physical disks and not the virtual drives configured in table mode. What should I do?

    Concerning

    Milton Aguiar

    You are probably using some (aka 'false') 'software' edge RAID controller. These controllers require additional driver software to work. However, VMware supports only the real hardware RAID controllers, which are transparently logical volumes to the OS. Unless your hardware provider offering dedicated to ESXi drivers (HP as much I know as fact for some of theit controllers of Type B) you may not use the RAID on board.

  • Install a custom configuration for ESXi Installer for server 28 - Scsi.CRTimeoutDuringBoot value to 1

    Hello

    First off I will say that I installed ESXi 4.1 in about 6 servers to date.  I have a large ESXi Cluster that contains the MSCS virtual machines.  I have the problem that described in http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1016106.  Now, workaround for the value Scsi.CRTimeoutDuringBoot value 1 works fine and shorten time of start of 40 + minutes to 8 minutes after post.  Now, what to install it?  Well, they suck.  Basically before you can actually adjust this via the gui VI client, you must go through 2 trunk of ESXi 4.1 (1 ffrom the CD and 1 after initial installation).  So, basically, to install ESXi on servers 1 takes me about 2 hours.  That sucks.  Anyone know how I can make a customized CD that includes the fix 'Scsi.CRTimeoutDuringBoot value to 1' already?  28 more servers to go and I'm not looking forward to that!  Please help...
