• Lab Manager 4.0 Upgrade Plus new vSphere Env Migration

  Current environment

  -Lab Manager 3.0.1

  U2 - VirtualCenter 2.5

  ESX - hosts running ESX 3.5 U2

  -All stores data on a San

  Will be a new separate building Lab Manager 4.0.1. Server from scratch that connects to a U1 vCenter Server 4.

  The plan is to migrate users to the former LM 3.0 installation to the new LM 4.0/vSphere 4 environment that will also have all new ESX host.  We will not pass original hosts to the new CR.

  Is there a way to copy or move the existing channels of the VM to the new separate environment?

  Or would we need to plan to export the models to a file server, and then import them into the new LM 4.0 environment and have users to start from scratch with these models?

  For any info or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

  Concern: Data store mappings in LM are deleted once all hosts are posted?

  No, virtual machines are stored in the database and mapped on the data store itself (and not on the host).  As long as the path of the UUID/NFS remains the same on different hosts, you should be fine.

  > Concern: LM 3 is not "supported" with VC 4, but he at least see and connect to it?

  It's REALLY OBSCURE.  He can't let you connect at all, or to connect then say guests are not supported.  I've seen some clients get totally rejected and others which were broadcast in the config not taken in charge even when (as vCenter has been updated in the background and LM was not touched).  they did not actually change the address info and click 'OK '.

  Concern: Assuming 3 LM can at least connect with VC 4, it will be able to reach the resource containing the host ESX 4 pools?

  I think so, but as long as the Lab Manager database indicates that you use the right IP/Username/Password for vCenter... that should be enough to make Lab Manager 3 to 4 and do use the new vCenter for the Initialization Wizard.

• I can point my Lab Manager 4.0.2 to point to another new vCenter Server?

  Hi guys,.

  I have a client with a LM4.0.2 production and we are considering moving to one another new/a vCenter server.

  It is important to note that the new vCenter will NOT have the same DB or FULL of the old domain name. It's a completely different vCenter with other ESX hosts.

  Now the questions:

  Can I redirect my Lab Manager (VM) at the new vcenter without any problem?

  What of the ESX (resource) on the old vcenter?

  Is it possible to do this without downtime for laboratories? If this is not the case, how can I minimize downtime? cancel the deployment will be enough?

  Does anyone have this done successfully?

  Any comments would be much appreciated.

  Eyal

  etamir,

  There are some excellent discussions within this forum on the same topic.  I strongly suggest to read first, and I'll see if I can find an example.

  Before going further, data warehouses used in the new vCenter/ESX environment will be exactly the same as the current one?  If you want to keep all of your configurations, I need to know that the UUID of the LUN does not change during this process.

  Can I redirect my Lab Manager (VM) at the new vcenter without any problem?

  You can change the IP/domain FULL name vCenter in the settings section of the Lab Manager site... now on the problems that could result.

  You will need to remove anything from the GUI of Lab Manager that has to do with the current vCenter (unedploy, unprepare host esx, resource pools, configurations etc.).  There will be more on this in the dedicated thread

  What of the ESX (resource) on the old vcenter?

  ESX doesn't really matter, it's the data UUID store that matters.  ESX is just virtual machines.  Note: you'll want to throw all States/suspend points on the VMS where processors are different on the ESX hosts.

  > Is it possible to do this without downtime for laboratories?

  No, there will be a form any downtime.  Either that LM site will be useless (no resources with Betclic, consoles will does not work until the guests are prepared, etc.).

  > If not, how can I reduce downtime? cancel the deployment will be enough?

  Yes, to cancel the deployment of will help... but there will be some lag as you reconfigure Manager of laboratory to use the new vCenter.

  > Has anyone successfully done this?

  Yes.  I saw others to do this.

• I can't power on a virtual machine (with linked disks) after the addition of new hosts of Lab Manager

  ENVIRONMENT

  -Lab Manager 3 using VC 3.5

  -Initially the 2 hosts in a cluster and managed by LM

  -Added new cluster with 2 new hosts in VC

  -Two bunches pointing to the same NFS storage

  PROBLEM

  -When you try to turn on a computer in new cluster, I get a "requested file" "not found" error

  RESULTS

  -This seems to happen only when creating a virtual machine that has virtual disks of parent; most of our VMS is linked clones

  -When you look at the log file, please see attachment, we found the following:

  It is the location of the new virtual machine in the new host:

  /vmfs/volumes/fabdf38d-beff047d/LMW2K3/2909/002909-T_XP_SP3_32b.VMDK

  When you look at the hard, it points to the parent disk, but it seems that it does not:

  /vmfs/volumes/6586c772-53eee1bb/LMW2K3/2904/002904-T_XP_SP3_32b.VMDK

  Please note th volumen IDS are different and can not get the disc parent of the new machine.

  SOLUTIONS?

  Thank you

  Jose

  You should immediately stop using the new hosts otherwise creating new virtual machines can spoil the vmdk channels. Try http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1005930.

• Lab Manager network models

  Must the address pool consider a set of addresses on the same physical network?   Or can the router virtual handel who.

  Lets get some terms right: a network model is a specification of the network of the gateway/IP/DNS/mask, etc. When they are copied in a configuration, it becomes a virtual network. When the configuration is deployed, the virtual network manifests as a portGroup + new vSwitch in vCenter. The virtual machines in this configuration connected to this virtual network are simply related to this newly created portGroup. If the configuration would have been deployed with the option "connect virtual networks to physical networks (CVNPN)" is checked, a VM vRouter would be created with 2 network cards, one connected to the newly created portGroup, and the other card NETWORK connected to the physical network portGroup. This internal vRouter NATs the IP of virtual network addresses the IP addresses of external physical network.

  So I must have something misconfigured.   I'd be able to ping the default gateway of the network model that I put in place of my tour VM Manager?

  As you can see, there is nothing in the config or the vRouter who will respond to pings from gateway, this is why you can not ping the gateway.

  I have to define a road on my phyical netwrk will go back to my network of Lab Manager?

  Network of Lab Manager? Don't know what you're talking about here. Did you mean virtual network (aka model network)?

  Is the indide of my virtual router gateway address address by default to the my model Lab Manager?

  No, the internal address of the vRouter comes from the virtual network IP pool. But yes, ideally it should be IP of the gateway to the virtual network - you can drop a feature with VMware Support for this request.

  I'm sure of nuts that I have configured wrong. Cannot ping the default gateway or anything outside.

  The vRouter implements a route between your virtual and physical network, so unless you select CVNPN while deploying the configuration, you will not be able to ping what anyone outside.

  From your images attached, it looks like you have selected, then maybe CVNPN that something is wrong in your case. I think you should open a VMware Support request to deal with this.

• Using Server 2008 R2 64-bit models in Lab Manager 2.5

  I created a template with Windows Server 2008 R2 64-bit; enabled installed VMware tools and LM.  But when I use the model in a configuration that the LM does not seem to work, the machine is not renamed, and now is waiting for activation.  Also, I get an error when the virtual machine tries to run the autoconfig.vbs on login.

  I understand that LM 2.5 does not support Server 2008, but is anyone aware of any workaround that I can put in place for this model is available to be used.  I really don't want to have to active post that we have only a limited deployment configuration Server 2008 activation available.

  All suggestions are well appecicated.

  -Greg

  Greg,

  Lab Manager 2.5 is not a the code for Windows 2008 R2 support.  Even if you have a template, it will customize ever since LM tools does not even what is Windows 2008 R2.

  The activation of Windows 2008 R2 component is due to hardware changes in the deployment of the model (new SID, UUID, NIC MAC addresses) and is a bit of a wait.

  I don't know of a workaround or the other and I have a kit of Lab Manager 2.5 around tinkering with since it's already past end of life care.

• Re - IP Lab Manager environment

  Question...

  My company is currently going through a transition that requires that we re - IP (change IP Pool address) within our Lab Manager environment.  Currently, we use a physical network (Pool of IP), have many configurations in the workspace, many registered in the library and deploy with fencing.  My question is, what challenges could meet by doing this?  I think that the scenario would be to cancel the deployment of all configurations, make the necessary changes in resources - & gt; The physical networks, and re-reploy or clone to the workspace (from library) every thing would be just to use the new network.  Am I too optimistic here?

  Thanks for any answer!

  Director of the laboratory v3.0.1.378

  It is actually something of a situation much longer.  The IP addresses on computers in configurations will not change unless you explicitly make a sufficient change to the properties of each individual VM.  Something along the lines of:

  (1) create your new physical network, new IP pool, etc. (physical network resources->, as you mentioned)

  (2) for all configurations, cancel the deployment, the new network is added the config, then switch all network interfaces for virtual machine with the physical network

  Deploy immediately after the switch, a new IP address will be drawn from the pool, and you're in business.

  In a pinch, you can often get away with simply defined the properties of each configuration to "allow only fenced mode", it takes much less time to do, but it'll look clumsy and a lot of people will ask you why it will spoil the configurations that use services that do not pass through the fence (DHCP active directory, etc.).

• Why move them to the bottom of empty in VMware Lab Manager when you use Firefox 4 +?

  When using Mozilla Firefox 4.0 or later, drop boxes in VMware Lab Manager are populated is more if it is not possible to deploy new virtual machines.

  It turns out that VMware has released a Lab Manager in August (4.0.4) update that resolves this problem. I upgraded to LM 4.0.4 and dropdown lists are now met again.

• Windows system error: there is an IP address conflict with another system with the network. How do I remove this error message?

  I just installed a new internet provider and all of my connections are working fine, but I constantly get this "Windows system error: there is an IP address conflict with another system with the network." I have my electrician of the internet modem connected to my office. I have also two wireless devices connected to the appearance of the Modem wireless. I constantly get this error message mentioned above, and I want to get rid of it.

  This means that all that he says.  Your Windows system has an address that already exists on your local network.  Turn your system off and use a working system to locate this address and to which unit he belongs.  In most LANs, the router's DHCP server.  You may be able to ask the router which addresses are used and see what device uses this address, but I suspect not.

  Duplicate addresses can occur when two systems received the same address manually, or when we got an address in the DHCP of the router range. It is unclear when this happened because he is not in control of the address and puts the address duplicate to a second system.  You need to track down, ensuring that all addresses manually asigned are out of the DHCP range, that you book the address of the router, if you want the device to use this address, or configure all devices to request the address of the router using DHCP.

• Getting the error "There is an IP address conflict with another system on the network." on XP computer

  "There is an IP address conflict with another system on the network." I keep getting these messages on my computer. -What it means and how to solve this?

  IP addresses are assigned to a computer in one of two basic methods: the address is assigned automatically by the device "in charge" of the network (in your case, the wifi hotspot router) or the address is set manually on the computer.

  If the address is assigned automatically, the router is "smart" enough to assign a different address for everyone.  However, if your computer has a fixed or 'static' IP address assigned manually, it may conflict with an address assigned by the router to another computer.

  You do not specify, so I'm going to assume that your computer is running WIndows XP...

  1. On your computer, open the network connections (start > run > ncpa.cpl > OK)
  2. Right-click on the icon for your wireless adapter and select Properties
  3. Click on the 'Général' tab, select "Protocol Internet (TCP/IP)" from the list of "this connection uses the following items" and click "Properties".
  4. Select the boxes for two on "Obtain an IP address automatically" and "Obtain DNS server address automatically"
  5. OK your way out.

  This will not adversely affect your computer somehow.

  If the two "automatic" settings were already selected, it is likely that your wireless adapter is managed by a utility provided by the manufacturer of your computer or your adapter wifi rather than Windows.  There should be a wifi icon in the system notification area (near the time display).  Click or right-click on it and see if you can access the menu of configuration settings or to determine at which it is useful.

• Travel with laptop get IP address conflict notice I'm a learner

  Help I get IP address view conflict on my laptop.

  I'm a learner and travel through the Australia

  IP address conflict occurs when the same IP is used by another computer on the network.
  To avoid this, you must configure your IP address manually.

  • who are going to start-> run-> type "ncpa.cpl" (with quotes)
  • Then you will see a window with all network adapters.
  • Select the adapter (local area wireless, or whatever it is), open it.
  • in the Properties window, double-click Internet version 4 Protocol
  • then in the new pop - up window, either give the IP address manually, or select "obtain an IP automatically" and "Obtain DNS server automatically.

  If you are not sure what IP address you have to give, then contact your internet service provider.

  Thank you!!

• IP address conflict? How to solve this problem. Message on the screen. go to the system event log window.

  Next message on the screen for IP address conflict. There are two addresses. How to solve this problem. Message to say go to the system event log window. I can't. Pl help.

  A common situation that can lead to a conflict of ip address, it's only 2 (or more) computers or other devices are connected to the router (via ethernet or wireless), and both have ip addresses assigned by the router automatically, one of the computers, then past in mode 'sleep', and while we sleep the router restarts.  When the router comes back online he doesn't know the computer sleeps is here and that he already has an assigned ip address and so it gives the ip address of the other computer.  When the computer asleep wakes duplicate error will be triggered.  It can be solved by turning off computers and turn it back on so that the router will assign them new ip addresses.  If this is not what is happening in your situation, the following may help: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Get-help-with-There-is-an-IP-address-conflict-message

• I'm having a problem on line when someone else uses the same router, error message: there is an IP address conflict

  Original title: I'm having a problem online when someone else uses the same router I have...

  I bought a new laptop with windows 7 premium. I connect to the internet through an external modem dsl and a wireless belkin n router. My daughter has an Android and uses the same connection... The problem is that we cannot not be online at the same time... If shes online using his android I can't connect using the laptop and if Im online using the laptop, she can't get online using his android... The error message indicates that there is a conflict of IP address... And sometimes says that there is a dns error... How can I fix this problem so that we can surf the net using the same connection?

  Hello

  Router is the gateway to the Internet, and it assigns the IP address for different devices. With the error message, you have so many IP address conflict, it seems that the IP address is not assigned correctly on the router.

  I suggest that you turn off all devices, reset the router and turn on the router. Once that is done turn the whole one and try to connect to the Internet.

  For assistance on this, you can contact your router manufacturer or Internet service provider.

  Hope the information is useful.

• vCenter Lab Manager 4.0.4 5?

  I know that there is no support for Lab Manager 4.0.4 and vCenter 5, but it's going to work? Or when it will be supported? I see no reason why there would be a problem if I leave my host ESX 4.1 cluster.

  Has anyone tried this before?

  vCenter 5 + Lab Manager 4.0.4 won't work.  There, questions that I saw people who did the upgrade without checking compatibility.  Since Lab Manager is abandoned, I'm not expecting a major update to support vCenter 5.0.

  One option is to divide it into 2 environments... 1 specially for vCenter to LabManager and then a 2nd which will vCenter 5 which is a new installation you can grow out.

• Lab Manager 4 will not release the license after the removal of host.

  Hey there,

  I am running Lab Manager 4 in my infrastructure.  I recently added a lot of CPU 2 and licensed.  Shortly after, I removed the host of Lab Manager, but he has not published the 2CPUs of licensing - which means that I am able to use my license 2CPU part to add new hosts.

  No idea how I can get the license for free?

  Thank you!

  You must "unprepare" this ESX host in the laboratory Manager.

  The 'prepare' function consumes your license, and similarly "unprepare" frees.

  This ESX host appears in the overall organization > resources > Hosts?

  Best regards
