New vSphere/vCenter installation problems

Hi all

User of long date, but first time poster, so go easy on me.

So I hit a bit of a weird situation here, I am currently working on a vSphere environment completely new to replace our existing (don't ask, long story).

Through the documentation and also various other stuff on the web I came with the plan went forward and installation:

Here's what I did:

2 separate servers involved, 1 for vcenter server and 1 for the SQL database

Installation of SQL and ready to go with 2 DB created RSA and VCDB, entry with relevant permissions.

After installing TS for authentication UNIQUE I went ahead with the installation of SINGLE sign-on, it went through fine. Service accounts used as required and set password, research service sdk admin@System-Domain responds in a browser, etc. etc.

I then installed the service of inventory, as it went through fine.

Then, I installed the web client of vsphere that even once went well, and I was able to connect with the admin@System-Domain above account and find that the discovery of AD was detected successfully our field. Large.

I then added an ad group to the __Administrators__ SSO group. This ad group contains my admin account, after which I was able to connect to the web client with my account.


Then, I went through installing vCenter server, using the relevant service accounts and connections of databases etc. I used the ad group that I added to the PSO previously for the last step. This completed without error.

I am now to connect on the web client again, with my account, manage vcenter nothing helps...

The vCenter server does not appear in the drop-down list in the Administration or in the vcenter section lists. Also, I can not connect to vcenter using the thick client (c#).

My first thought was that it has not registered with the service of inventory, but I have since reinstalled vCenter Server and installing it told me that there is already a vcenter Server present (I want to delete).

Anyone have any ideas about where to go from here?

Thank you

Jon

I thought account and you know I had at the bottom of the issue, it was around the fact that our AD has been organized where users and groups are in different locations, and automatically detected in SSO AD settings were not return users correctly. Strange, I know, but it seems that deletion and recreation detected entries with Group dn channels that everything fell into place and slightly modified basic user.

I thought it was strange to have made this Setup countless times without this kind of question.

  • vSphere vCenter license problem

    Now, I apologize if this has been posted somewhere, but my search fu fails me and I can't seem to find an answer.

    We have a mixed environment at the moment. We have 4 ESXI 3.5 hosts running the "free ESX Server 3i for unlimited processor. We are also raising 4 new hosts vSphere 4. To control this, we have a copy of vCenter 4.0 running on a physical machine. We get down to the end of our assessment of vCenter and my boss finally got the license number to plug into the system. When I do, I get an error about the license not being not able to be changed to vCenter Standard and he needs access to a license server in order to manage hosts.

    Now, I read about how the license server should be part of the installation so I re-run. My options were to change the config of bound modes or uninstall. I also downloaded the license for ESX 3.5 Server [(license

    Server for 3.5): http://downloads.VMware.com/d/Details/esx_35_licenseserver_dt/dGViZGVoKmIqZA== ], but it asks me the CIL file which I have not since these are the free versions. So I'm back to being stuck.

    ESX 3i servers will eventually be migrated away. All machines will be moved to the new host (biggest machines, beefier) and hosts old or recycled, is transformed into a test environment. They are currently in the vCenter system but do not have to be. It would be nice to have just a one-stop look all VM in the environment, but we need the VMotion HA or something with it.

    So, how can I get this license so that we can start testing HA? If I need launch systems vCenter ESXi, I tried and got the same results. But I could have done something wrong suggestions are welcome at this stage. We are in a period of time to get the displaced systems so any help is appreciated.

    Thank you

    Peace

    You cannot manage ESXi free of vCenter Server 4.0

    So remove them from the vCenter Server.

  • New server vCenter Server

    I am running a 3.5 environment, and I want to get to sphere.

    I'll create a new vSphere vCenter server to manage my boxes of esx 3.5 and possibly update these boxes to sphere.

    Currently, vCenter 3.5 I manage my esx boxes, and this same server is the license server.

    Can I simply create a new server and then add my esx boxes in its inventory of management?

    Do I have to remove these boxes on the other server vCenter esx?

    Can the two vCenters be running at the same time?

    And have point to the new server cVenter to the old server vCenter for licenses, or simply keep the old server up?

    Do I have to remove these boxes on the other server vCenter esx?

    Yes

    Can the two vCenters be running at the same time?

    No.... not if they use the same DB instance.  If you use a different instance of DB, then Yes. But you can't manage the same ESX host in both environments.

    And have point to the new server cVenter to the old server vCenter for licenses, or simply keep the old server up?

    You can use your old license for your VI3 hosts server.  Home - vCenter Server Settings.  Or you can install a standalone license server.

    Dear professionals

    I can not connect to the server via the customer web vicenter.

    I have installed and configured the following successfully:

    -esxi5.5

    -Win 2008 server1 (installed on AD)

    -Server2 Win 2008 joined to the domain, then I installed on: sso, inventory, customer web Vsphere and vcenter server service

    as you can see in the attached photos, when I double click on the client vsphere of wen I should be able to log on to the server vcenter, but I couldn't do it.

    do not forget that I logged Win 2008 server2 as a domain administrator, then I installed sso, inventory, customer web Vsphere and vcenter server service

    the WebClient service is runningand I tried https://server.example.com:9443 / vsphere client.

    There are more than two things, I noticed:

    -When I turned the web customer service I got the certificate error (see photo).

    -When I typed nslookup in the domain controller I got the error message.  web vsphere client error is related to the DNS error in the domain controller?


    Please see the pictures attached.

  • Problem after moving to new server vCenter

    I moved vCenter to a new server by following this article:

    http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 5850444

    After editing the file vpxa.cfg with the new IP of the vCenter server and restart management services, all of my guests are still disconnected.  I tried to select "Connect" from the menu, which has been connected to the host.  However, HA not properly configures.  Has anyone seen these symptoms after moving to a new server vCenter? Ideas for how I can fix the problems?

    More details can be provided according to the needs

    Thank you

    Jeff

    Is / was enabled on this cluster HA?  Have your tried to disable HA on the cluster, and once that all your hosts have been added to the rear allowing HA again.

    In addition, even if you did, you can restart the agents once again all hosts in the cluster

  • VCenter 5.5 new install - VCenter not no projection in the Web Client

    Hello

    Today, I installed a new simple installation of 5.5 VCenter Server with all the parts.  I can access the web client very well and it will also authenticate with SSO (even if I don't allow my username anywhere, maybe I'm a domain administrator it allows this?).  Anyway I digress, when registering in the web client VCenter County shows 0 and I am obviously unable to perform all tasks at all.

    Of course, my link between the VCenter server and Webclient went wrong somewhere and I am struggling to see how to solve this problem.  From my research in 5.5 that it should automatically just connect and you don't need to 'register' that we had to do with older versions.

    Any help appreciated.

    Thank you

    Hello

    As described in this KB KB VMware: vSphere installation 5.5 Web Client on a Microsoft Windows platform

    Among the vSphere post installation steps Web Client adds SSO identity Source

    Log in to the Web Client vSphere and authenticate using the [email protected] domain to check that the SSO and vSphere Client Web work correctly.

    You can also add an external identity source, such as Open LDAP and Active Directory before deploying the server vCenter Server and inventory Services.

    For more information on the different types of Sources of identity for vSphere 5.5, see him add a vCenter Single Sign-On identity Source section of the Guide of installation and Installation of vSphere.


    You connect by using the domain ([email protected]) account?

    Have you tried to connect with username [email protected]?

    According to the guidelines of vSphere vSphere 5.5 Documentation Center Documentation

    When an identity source is added, all users can be authenticated but have access no. authorization.

    If you open a session by using the domain account (domain administrators) you might be able to connect, but cannot perform all the tasks that the user is to have access permissions.

    Then you can try to login with the username [email protected] first, then assign permission to your domain account.

    The steps to add the UNIQUE identity Source Authentication (if the ad has not been added) and assign permissions (for the domain account) are described in vSphere Documentation here:

  • Support for multiple instances of vSphere vCenter

    I installed the demo of (construction 4.4.0 - EE #1509 - July 28, 2010 - Release Build) Hyperic 4.4 company Web site to test the support of monitoring VMware vSphere 4.0.

    I have installed an agent Win32 on W2003 server which hosts the 4.0U2 of vSphere vCenter server and configured it. Once resources have been configured, I edited the VMware vCenter resource to add a user/password valid and after a short while the ESXi host servers and virtual machines appeared in the vSphere browse/HQ screen. Everything works well.

    I then tried to add a different vCenter server with its own ESXi host servers (with a new agent installed on W2003 this server) and that's where the problem starts. After that I added the name of user and password in the detail of the vCenter inventory, new ESXi and VM guests begin to appear under "recently added". When I go to the screen of vSphere browse/HQ original vCenter disappeared and a mixture of the other vCenter servers host and its own host servers appear under the vCenter newly added.

    I would be able to monitor the 2 different vCenter servers?

    Multiple vcenter instances are supported.  When you configure the resource, be sure to use the IP address of the box instead of the default loop address.  When HQ sees multiple vcenters air-conditioned and come with 127.0.0.1 in the URL of SDK, it blends.  Configuring IP should solve the problem you are experiencing.

  • Upgrade to vcenter OS = problems with ADAM

    I recently improved my OS from 2008 to 2008 R2 vcenter. I created a new virtual machine, stole the name of the former vcenter, vcenter package installed and attached to the database. Everything works fine, however I'm continually getting the following error message in the event viewer for the VMWAREADAMVCMSDS service.

    The following FSMO role owner is set on a server that is deleted or does not exist.

    Operations requiring contact with a master FSMO operation will fail until this problem is corrected.

    Is there an easy fix for this?

    When you deleted it as an instance of bound modes, you crossed the vCenter Installer and chose to "insulate the vCenter Server Instance of the Group of related modes"?  You can do the two vCenter the Instance in question and the one with which he was associated, with as always, they may think that they are related.  Maybe link them again and then go through the process of linking not them

  • Installation problems Thrones and Patriots

    Hey everybody. I have installation problems with elevation of the thrones of nations with the Patriots. I installed rise of nations but the installation successfully Thrones and Patriots he wins in a file called CTW_New_World_Map_01_info_text.xml.18 and then says check to see if I have available disk space, or if the file is in use. It's a brand new model with no other games on it.

    Hi Riseofjohn,
     
    1. have you checked the disk installation for scratches or damage?
    2. don't you try to install the game in the other computer?
    3. What is the operating system that is currently installed on your computer?
     
    First of all I suggest to perform a disk cleanup and check whether the problem is resolved.
     
    The disk cleanup tool helps you free up space on your hard disk to improve your computer's performance. The tool identifies files that you can safely remove, and then allows you to choose if you want to remove some or all of the files identified.

    To use disk cleanup in Windows 7 follow these steps below.
     
    a. Click Start, click programs, accessories principally made, click System Tools and then click on disk cleanup. If several readers are available, you may be asked to specify which drive you want to clean.
    b. when disk cleanup has calculated how much space you can free of charge, in the dialog cleaning disc, scroll through the content of the files to delete list.
     

    Disk Cleanup dialog box

    c. clear the check boxes for files that you do not want to delete, and then click OK.

    For more options, such as cleaning of system restore and files copy of Shadow, under Description, click on clean up the system files, and then click the other Options tab.
    d. When you are prompted to confirm that you want to remove the files specified, click Yes.
     
    After a few minutes, the process is completed, and close the Disk Cleanup dialog box, leaving your computer more efficient and clean better.
     
    I also suggest you to run chkdsk.
    Follow these steps:
     
    a. click on start
    b. Type "cmd" in the start search box
    c. right-click on cmd.exe list programs and then select the run as Administrator option. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue
    d. in the command prompt window, type the following command and press enter Chkdsk/r X:
     Note: in this command, x is a placeholder that represents the drive letter of the volume you want to check.
    a. press y when you are prompted to check the drive the next time the system restarts.
    b. close all applications and restart the computer.
     
    Note: upon reboot, Windows checks the drive for errors, and then Windows starts

    After the computer restarts, repeat steps 1 through 4 for the other volume and then check if the disk cleanup works.
     
    If the steps provided above does not resolve the problem then I suggest to install the game using the cleanboot and check for the issue.
    Put your system to the clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items
    the origin of the problem. If so, you need to maybe contact the manufacturer of the program for updates or uninstall and re-
    install the program.
    See KB Microsoft article below for more information on how to resolve a problem by doing a
    clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:
    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135  
    Note: after a repair, be sure to set the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 in the above KB
    article.
    I suggest also allows you to check the compatibility of the game with the Windows 7 operating system.
