No reason NOT to use ESXi 4.0?

I have vSphere Update Manager license, so I like 4.0 because of the GUI host update utility.

4.1 it is all CLI and rather heavy (download all the zippers, transfer to the data store and makes the adjustment).

Is there a reason NOT to use ESXi 4.0?

Hello

There is no reason NOT to use ESXi 4.0

This will be always supported until at least 2014-2016

Having said that there are attribute benefits of performance in version 4.1 and a fortiori in vSphere 5

Upgrading form 4.0 to 4.1 using the command line is really not that complicated, and I encourage you to make the effort to at least ver 4.1

  • No reason not to use Virtual PC to work around inconsistency of program?

    I just bought a $29 printer instead of spending $45 to replace the No. 23 of my DeskJet HP ink cartridge.  Unfortunately, I forgot to check for compatibility and have not been able to find a way to share with Windows 98SE.

    I tried to upgrade my old copy of the print shop to Vista, but the Compatibility Assistant told me it was a known incompatibility.

    On a whim, I booted up my copy of Virtual PC with Windows XP and was able to install and run it without problem. THERE is a driver available for the printer and had XP no harm to use as a shared printer.

    Is there a reason not to use Virtual PC to work around incompatibility with Vista? I know that it is not suitable for the games because of limited capacity, but what about productivity as The Print Shop Deluxe 5.0 programs?

    P.S. Can someone suggest a way to share a HP DeskJet 1000 with Windows 98SE? I saw a reference to another printer that has 98 drivers called a Deskjet 1000cse, but according to the website of HP, this is another printer that is no longer supported. Any chance I can use drivers 95/98 for CSE to connect to a share of Vista? If so, how do I configure it? If these drivers are like drivers for my DeskJet 812C, the option "have disk" will NOT work in the list, the installer will put things for a local printer rather than on a network, an and I do not remember that it is also easy to change the port to a network printer, you can with XP and Vista.

    As long as it works, it's a great idea.

  • Extended Analytics - reason not to use the HFM database as the destination

    Why can't use us the HFM database as the destination database to create patterns in Star using extended Analytics? How can we get data with metadata in tables exported using EA?

    As far as I know, export EA is a star that includes metadata and data schema format?
    You don't would not export it to your database of the HFM application as you would ideally keep it separate for analsys by services such as Essbase OLAP?
    Alternatively, you can also use Oracle Hyperion Essbase Analytics Link, which creates a permanent bridge in real-time between your HFM and Essbase applications.

  • GUID or not for use with time machine

    I am about to format a new external hard drive to save the backups and other things. On the road I can use for Time Machine, but not now. I wonder whether or not to use setting GUID in the form for the reader, because it will allow me to make a disc bootable option. Is there a reason NOT to use the GUID + OS X extended journaled on any drive that you reformat? (I ask because it is an option. A few posts on this site I get the idea that unless I want a windows or linux on readable disk, which I did not, GUID is the way to go. I don't know if I chose actually on another X - HD I got recently and am using for backups TM. I don't know, because I tried to make a bootable partition / clone and was not able to boot from this partition.)

    Secondly, I think to partition the hard drive into two GB 1 pieces in case I want to use 1 semester for backups online TM subsequently and so keep those separated from other files. Is it advisable or not? (One of the advantages are the possibility to delete backups TM: you just reformat the partition where they live.)

    I could use the GUID for a partition and not on the other or just for the two (it seems that the GUID is the recommended way to get Mac products). *

    Thanks in advance.

    * Assume that you use a GUID. Is there a problem with the help of a hard drive without formatting?

    Since you're using ONLY this disc with your Mac, then GUID partition map and HFS + filesystem (OS X Extended (journaled)) to a volume of Time Machine

    * Assume that you use a GUID. Is there a problem with the help of a hard drive without formatting?

    Why do bad for yourself.

    It is very good.  In addition to El Capitan OS X will be ONE partition a disk GUID, it's another reason for the use of the GUID.

    NOTE: If you want to put other files on this disk, will you of have saved them in another location.  And all THE data that you care, or would have cost a lot of time to recreate should be use 3-2-1. backup policy.

    3 copies (the original is the 1st copy)

    utility for 2 different devices to backup with 2 different so that a bug in one does not affect the other, and a faulty device does not affect the other.

    1 copy off site, so that you always have your data even after a natural disaster or theft

    And put the data and backup on the same disk is a "No No", as the loss of the aircraft loses the original and the backup at the same time.

  • Virtual machine does not respond on esxi 5.0 using Vsphere 5 customer

    Hello

    One of my virtual machine does not respond when I am trying to connect through the console on my vsphere client. I use esxi 5.0.

    The thing is that I have several virtual machine works very well and I do not understand why it doesn't work anymore.

    When I try to restart the vSphere client, nothing happen or when I try to stop it.

    Does anyone have an idea of what I need to do?

    Welcome to this community!

    in some special cases the virtual machines enter State does not. In this case, we have to kill the VM process to bring the virtual machine online.

    the following KB explains different methods to do the same thing.

    http://KB.VMware.com/kb/1014165

    Follow the steps under "using the ESXi 5.0 esxcli command to turn off a virtual machine.

    I would recommend contact VMware support, given that the steps above are a little off destructive.

  • Why a supposed to be certified is not correctly install ESXi? (Dim X 2270) Criteria of certified systems.

    We have a Sun Fire X 2270, which according to VMware is a system that belongs to the HCL for ESXi 4.0 (http://www.vmware.com/resources/compatibility/search.php?deviceCategory=server & advancedORbasic = advanced) and according to Sun is a certified system (http://www.sun.com/software/vmware/certification.jsp). Therefore, it should work with ESXi. And it does not work. The problem arises when you want to use the internal drives to a data store and expect some sort of redundancy, I mean obviously set up a RAID in which install the ESXi and the data store.

    2270 X uses an Intel Matrix Storage Manager v8.5.0.1030 ICH10R/D0 wRAID5 controller, that does not work with ESXi 4.0. And I say that this does not work because once the ESXi installation program shows you the available disks it overrides the Intel RAID configuration and it shows just two discs instead of a mirrored volume. Why? I did the same thing with a Sun Fire X 4275, who is also a certified from the same manufacturer, system and it happened your in a RAID5 configuration with several volumes. However, Adaptec RAID supported in compatibility list card X 4275 has a. The answer of the Sun, is that the system is certified, they know not the RAID controller and that I should talk with VMware.

    I guess that, in order to obtain certification, hardware manufacturers must prove that their system works under reasonable conditions, and they consider the drivers available in ESXi 4.0. Is it reasonable to ask RAID functionality? My problem here is why is a machine on the HCL, if it really works? Or I'm just clumsy and I can't get it to work? I do not know. I can always buy an adaptec card, but then, why do I lose the only free PCIe that comes with the X 2270?

    In summary, someone knows what are the criteria to determine whether a server is a system that is certified or not? Part of that test RAID features? What makes a server an eligible candidate?

    I apologize if my description was too long.

    The testing requirements are not public - go sign a bunch of NDAs as a partner to get them.

  • What is the main reason for the use of SERIALLY_REUSABLE in your package?

    Hi Experts,

    What is the main reason for the use of SERIALLY_REUSABLE in your package?

    At first glance, the most popular reason seems that some developers forget to close cursors. Therefore, it is a good way to close automatically when your code is stopped during the same session.

    Second, if your business rules require that package variables still need to put the SERIALLY_REUSABLE default values is good for this.

    So, what's your reason?

    Thanks in advance.

    From http://docs.oracle.com/database/121/LNPLS/packages.htm#LNPLS99924:

    After the unit of work (call Server) a SERIALLY_REUSABLE complete package, Oracle database performs the following operations:

    • Closes all open cursors.
    • No free memory (for example, memory for collection and long VARCHAR2 variables)
    • Returns the instantiation of the package to the collection of reusable instantiations kept for this package.

    Explicit cursors in SERIALLY_REUSABLE packages:

    http://docs.Oracle.com/database/121/LNPLS/packages.htm#LNPLS99923

    I would not support using SERIALLY_REUSABLE instead of programming and the cursor's lifecycle management practices.

    > What is the main reason for the use of SERIALLY_REUSABLE in your package?

    If your package uses large amounts of memory in the State, especially in a multiuser environment heavy wherever the memory usage adds up and memory will not clean until the session is closed and the State is not held beyond the call to the package, then there's your use case.

  • How to continue using ESXi 4.1 in free mode?

    Well, I need to know how to continue to use ESXi 4.1 in free mode.

    I installed ESXi 4.1 vSphere and installed time-limited evaluation license.

    Now that the trial license has expired, how to return to the free license?

    I tried this: go to license Features, Edit, then "Assign an existing license key for this host" and chose "evaluation Mode...". (Not LicenseKey) "but he said I'm not a license.

    So, how can I continue using ESXi 4.1 in free mode after the use of time-limited evaluation license that has now expired?

    A detailed explanation of a person who has really, actually used an evaluation license and has successfully passed regularly in fr. old mode under license will be more appropriate.

    Thanks in advance.

    Once you have taken of / found your license free key just use the console vsphere and go to configuration | license and enter the key.

    You may need to buy a graphics card in order to use a different port on the computer.

    There is a updated firmware for Mini Display Port to VGA (himself):

    are available; You can even use a digital TV (limits) as screen.

    The technology of the adapter and display need to better match those of the Mini.
