• Upgrade to ESXi 5.0U2 5.1 - Supermicro X7SBi

  Hello.

  Supermicro X7SBi lost the network (the two network interface cards) after the reboot, during the upgrade to ESXi 5.0U2 to ESXi 5.1 via the Update Manager.

  Local console poster version 5.1 ESXi and correct IP settings.

  After zero manual host starts in response ping for about 6 seconds and then disappears again.

  Has anyone come across something like that?

  Sorry I should have been clearer with this statement.

  I've got new SuperMicro X9SCM-F mother card and an old X7SBi both require Intel e1000 drivers.

  On the X9SCM-F with ESXi versions 5 and 5.1 only one of the two NICS, the custom driver is required for the additional NIC to work.

  On the X7SBi with ESXi version 5.1 or work two NICS, the custom driver is required for any NETWORK adapter to work.

  Also, I should mention I didn't write or have any participation making the custom driver, I came across it looking for solutions to my first problem, and it seems to have saved me again.

  I'm sure that VMWare will fix these problems in the future, but I expect two giants of the COMPUTER like VMWare and Intel should be able to come on the market with work to off the shelf systems, it's a little disappointing.

• Attempt to start an ESXi host nested of Windows Hyper-V on Windows 8.1

  Hi guys,.

  I would like to start nested 5.5 ESXi hosts in my 5.5 vCenter environment.  I did successfully using 10 Workstation, but I'm having problems trying to do using Windows Hyper-V running on Windows 8.1.  I created a few test servers and tried to start, receive all of them successfully the IP addresses and downloading the image, but they cling to the «travel modules and updated the kernel...» »

  

  If somebody has got away?  Any suggestions?

  dbutch1976 wrote:

  As described earlier in this thread, the host crashes to "move the modules and from the kernel.

  I don't think that the host crashes in fact at this point.  Since the FADT ACPI under Hyper-V has revealed that the VGA is not available, the output is redirected to the serial port.  If you can complete the "blind" installation, you should be able to get on the rest of the installation while providing the necessary responses.

  The question is why the FADT ACPI under Hyper-V claims that VGA is not available, when it is clearly.

• ESXi 4.0 supports Windows Server 2008 Clustering?

  Hello

  Does anyone know if the Clustering Windows 2008 Server (MSCS) is officially supported in ESXi 4.0?  If this isn't the case, someone has suggestions on how to configure it to a production environment by using third-party tools?

  Thank you

• ESXi connection to the Windows SFU NFS data store

  We plan to install 3 servers ESXi with virtual machines hosted on local.  A backup script align the images and move the *.vmx and *.vmdk to a NFS data store located in separate facilities which are connected via fiber.  All connections are links of 1 G.  The NFS data store will be hosted on w2k3 with SFU (Microsoft Services for Unix).

  The NFS data store will be a target for cloning and will be located in a building separated for "geographical separation."  I tested with Veema FastSCP (the public beta)... it's ok (30Mbytes/sec).  I assume that the clone process will take about 5 hours - but we can tolerate the performance hit after opening hours.

  Question:  Is there a "traps" to know by linking each ESXi server in the same directory NFS exported using SFU?  Perhaps more to the point... no problem with ESXi and Windows SFU?

  Before anyone asks... we do this on a 'super-thin budget' (that is to say... $ 0) using existing hardware, otherwise I would have ESX Enterprise and SAN storage!

  Some discussions to look at on the performance.

• Cannot install the Vcenter for Esxi 5.5. Windows 7

  Hi Experts,

  When I run the simple setup, it stops when tried to install the SSO, the message "cannot install the single sign on, this package is not compatible with your processor,..." I'm running a Lenovo T430, the processor in an INTELCore I5 vPro.

  I installed the client vsphere without problems. And I know that in the other lenovo T430 people install the VCenter correctly. I am running Windows 7 Professional.

  Any idea or solution?

  Thank you very much friends!

• Connecting directly to ESXi 5.1 for Windows XP fails after upgrading to update 02

  After that night at ESXi 5.1 Update 02 update

  (build No. 1483097

  file update - from - esxi5.1 - 5.1_update02.zip)

  I get the error:

  A unknown connection error has occurred. (The client may not send a request to the server. (La connexion sous-jacente a été fermée: une erreur inattendue s'est produite sur un envoi.))

  I connect from a XP client, I googled this problem:

  vCenter Server 5.1 Update 2 Release Notes

  which is (I think), but the solution is for vCenter. How to solve without vCenter.

  Best regards, Lars.

  Welcome to the community,

  Although the article mentions only version 5.5, you can try and see if http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2049143 will help.

• Installation of Windows 2008 R2 on ESXi 5.0

  Hi all

  I worked with ESXi 4 & 5 running Windows 2003 OS invited without problems.  Just tried to install Windows 2008 R2 x 64 and face an interesting difference.  When installing windows 2003 I have to specify the details of the Virtual Machine, specifically the amount of disk space I want to be available to host everything.  Then start the virtual machine, newly created from the windows installation disk appropriate.  I then get prompt with the "blue" screen allowing me to partition the space according to the BONE and once installation is complete I can then go through the operating system and partition and format the remaining space, as I hear it.  Doing so to a Windows 2008 R2 x 64 installation disk and I don't you this possibility so the BONE ends by using all the space allocated to the host of comments.

  I guess I'm missing something blindingly obvious, but have not been able to track down any relevant information to this day.

  Yes, you really lack the partitioning part.

  This is after selecting custom selection (advanced option) > select the drive you want to install windows > click drive options and partition your drive.

• Cannot import Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 with Hyper-V virtual machines to VMware ESXi 4.

  Hi team,

  I use VMware vCenter Converter Standalone to import certain Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 with Hyper-V virtual machines to VMware ESXi 4, using another Windows Server 2008 R2 as the machine Agent Converter. Well, the agent connects to the Windows VM source very well (I used the net use command to create a line of conduct...), perhaps no chance to connect to the computer target VMware ESxi 4 and make the converter doesn't work...

  Following is the error message:

  "Unable to connect to the host specified" from the converter agent machine. " It is perhaps because the host is not available on the network, there is a problem with the network configuration or management on this host services do not react. Check all components of converter to be able to connect.

  So, my question is; is it possible to create a work around (like the net use Windows command above) to make possible the connection of the converter Agent on Linux VMware ESXi 4 machine Windows machine, to directly import the virtual machines of Windows Hyper-V to Linux VMware?

  Thanks in advance,

  It's even easier than that

  Use this: http://www.winimage.com/

  Which will convert *.vhd *.vmdk, so you don't need to do all this... Of course, another way is to start the machines, leaving them on Hyper-V and go through the network and process virtual machine as physical machines and do a P2V on the network...

  We are all ONE!

  I tried some of the solutions that offered you, but I think what was my problem was caused by the presence of the index on an external hard drive and when the computer has been restarted the drive letter of the USB drive was not the same.  If I remember well, it was a problem that I wasn't yet able to rebuild the index.

  I now have the index on my hard C at the level of the root drive.  I was about to point to the other half of a 16 GB flash drive which is also USB, but Windows Vista Home Premium does not only because it appears that are considered removable flash drives, but external USB drives are not presented in this category.

  Currently I have about 74 000 items indexed.

• To access the ESXi 6 via the webclient service

  Greetings,

  I'm sorry if I'm just cutting on it, but maybe it's an easy question to answer.

  I'm in a very locked down environment and I can not access vSphere windows client (client installation is not allowed on my windows desktop).

  I have 5 hosts ESXi 6.0 and I need to deploy vSphere 6 on top of these hosts.  My plan was to go directly to one of the hosts and install vCenter on a virtual machine on that host.

  From this point, I would be able to connect to vCenter and build the rest of the environment.

  As I don't have access to the Windows client, I have to use the web client to interact with the environment (I would need to connect the host to the first and build vCenter), but given that I have not vCenter or the webclient service installed yet, I see not a way to actually enter the ESXi host using the webclient service.  I know with 5.5, was the order for the installation:

  1.) SSO

  2 web client).

  3. inventory service)

  4.) vCenter Server

  But what I would do here with version 6?  Can I run the installer of vCenter and install the web client on my desktop and then use it to access the host to create the environment?

  It seems that the windows client really is a must if you want to connect to a host (if you don't have the webclient service installed).  Is this fair?

  There is no webclient for administrering a stand-alone ESXi host, only the Windows client.

  However the vCenter device built in deployment tool to deploy a vcenter device you don't need customer C sharp, but you must be able to install the plugin for integration of customer.

  If you need a Windows vCenter server you need to deploy the fashion old way

• vSphere 6 and Windows 2003

  I think that Windows 2003 guests are not supported under ESXi 6. Has anyone tried their execution? Do any of you run Windows 2003 in 6? I hope that (although not taken in charge) it's more a case that VMware just could not be bothered to validate/test but it works perfectly fine. Grateful for any input.

  Thank you

• Impossible to P2V Windows 2003 x 64 server - an error occurred while opening a virtual disk

  Hello.

  I have a physical Windows Server 2003 x 64 R2 Standard and try to convert it to vSphere with vCenter Converter Standalone 5.5.0 VM 5.5.

  When I start the task, VM is created on vSphere, but after a few seconds machine is removed and task collapsed with messages: "year error occurred opening a virtual disk." "Make sure the server Converter and source computer have a network access to hosts esx/esxi source and destination.

  There are no problems with access to the network, I check.

  I tried many things (disable SSL on the server Converter, converter running directly on the source machine, see providers vss on source...) but without success.

  Any idea is welcome.

  Thank you.

  Please check if Windows Server is able to resolve the name of the ESXi host. If DNS does not work, add the ESXi host (s) of Windows server hosts file destination.

• Copy the ISO data store ESXi on VM

  Hello

  I'm quite new to virtualization and unable to understand the ways to copy the ISO file that is located on the data to a virtual computer store. Basically, I already installed ESXi and couple of Windows 2008 VM. Consider using one of this virtual machine as a server vCenter. Now, I have already downloaded from the VMware website and downloaded vCenter ISO to one of the data store.

  However, unable to work how can I copy the ISO to this virtual machine file so that I can install vCenter server? I have read a few things on the internet and tried to use WinSCP within the virtual machine using the IP host address, but I get "no connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.» the connection has failed. It is similarly after I activated the client FTP on ESXi host in the firewall. I am able to SSH (putty) to ESXi host with no problems.

  How can I get this to work? Y at - it a simple method that might work? Is WinSCP way to go? If so, why it wouldn't work? Note it is lab home environment and there is no other firewalls between the two.

  Thank you

  Please use it under VMware documentation pertaining to the same.
