  Mr. VMware

  Hello, MrVmware9423-

  It seems that this may have to do with the .NET Framework is installed on the computer on which you run PowerShell/PowerCLI.  Take a look at http://communities.vmware.com/message/2174319 - users have been able to solve the problem with a newer version of the .NET Framework (v2, installed v3.5 - success).

  Because your problem seem (you use a? 2 version of .NET, and you're able to install a newer version)?

• connection via console on vCenter Server Appliance

  I have deployed just a file of EGGS vCenter and when it starts it is looking for a DHCP address. However, there is no DHCP on this network and I have no choice to 'Network' at the start of the virtual machine in the console. Just a connection option. However, the root account does not even accept an attempt and spit on "Login Incorrect" immediately without any possibility for a password. The "admin" account requires a password but nothing like 'vmware', 'admin', etc..

  How do I connect via the command line to change the network to use a static IP address? It is said to connect via the https interface, but because he did not get a DHCP address it just says: connect to https://0.0.0.0:5480.

  Any way I can connect through the command line to set the IP address?

  Well, it was weird. Locked to the root account of has no connections but then removed the EGGS and redeployed it and root/vmware now works? Do not understand this one.

• Cannot add ESXi host to vCenter Server

  Hello

  I created a home set up a VMware datacenter for study purposes. I currently have 2 virtual machines: an ESXi host with vCenter Server Appliance deployed on this subject.

  I configured the server vCenter through web interface device and I have connected using vSphere Client.

  I created a data center, but when I try to add a host, I get "ERROR: the request exceeded."
  Connection with vSphere client directly to the ESXi host works.

  I can connect using SSH to the ESXi host.

  I have disabled the firewall on the ESXi host.

  I have read many articles on the kbase but nothing helped me to solve this problem.

  You have any ideas?

  I finally got to understand.

  It seems like my vmware workstation is not connected to the esxi as a physical host in my local network host, and so I was able to ping it unit of vCenter Server (but it worked the other way around, and that's why I thought it was ok).

  After the connection to the physical LAN of VMware workstation settings, everything worked fine.

• Cannot add the ESX 6.0 host to vCenter Server 6.0

  OK, I'm testing laboratory a vsan 6.0 cluster.

  I have my running 6.0.0 esx hosts and vcenter server is 6.0.0 also.

  I have the services platform on a virtual machine and vcenter on another. I was able to create a data center, then a cluster below.

  Then I went to try to add a host to my group and I get this error...

  Failed to contact the specified host (hostname\IP). The host may not be available on the network, may have a network configuration problem, or that the management on this host services may not respond.

  
  

  Per this KB: KB VMware: Add a host VMware ESXi/ESX from VMware vCenter Server fails

  
  

  I confirmed that my vcenter server and platform services server can see all esx hosts. From the vcenter server, it can ping the host esx and PuTTY can access all of them. I even installed the client and it can connect to all esx hosts. I used the netbios name, IP and FULL domain name and they all work.

  I have only a single subnet, so this isn't a problem. DNS resolution works in all areas of both sides, vcenter esx hosts and host esx to vcenter.

  
  

  I am quite puzzled.
  

  
  

  
  

  OK, after working with VMware on this issue, I think that I thought about it.

  All my hosts are DL360 G6 servers.

  My hosts are run the same build «VMware-ESXi-6.0.0-2494585-HP-600.9.2.38-Mar2015.iso» ESX Downloaded from HP.

  All buildings are in trial mode.

  After placing a call to VMware, they had me build some ESX VM, the services of the platform and the vcenter VM on an ESX host. We suspended because it took all day to go upward.

  Once I woke up all the parts (sql server, esx vm, server platform & vcenter) in virtualization nested, I created my data center, then Cluster then added the ESX host.

  The hosts added properly, no error. Then I remembered when I installed ESX inside a virtual machine, I am angry that the iso, I had the habit of HP does not work in my VM nested due to virtualized hardware.

  Then a fire came into my head. We will rebuild all of the physical cluster but NOT use the CV provided the iso file but use VMware provided iso file "VMware-VMvisor-Installer - 6.0.0 - 2159203.x86_64.iso".

  I did it today. I have rebuilt all hosts with the provided iso file VMware ESX...

  Spun SQL Server vCenter, service platform, all VM VM VM you need. My AD & DNS VM are on another server, so he has been upwards all the time.

  Connected to the web interface (yuck!).

  Created my data center...

  Created my Cluster...

  Add all my Cluster hosts.

  All of this worked!

  Therefore, if you encounter the same problem, I'm plan to generate your with the provided iso file VMware ESX hosts and try it. In my case, the provided HP iso file didn't work properly for me.

  I also downloaded the iso file of HP 2 other times to make sure and do a validation test and it did the same thing.

• How to change the config of vCenter Server Appliance (5.5) ESXi host vm? [Solved]

  I want to enable (set to true) memoryHotAddEnabled and cpuHotAddEnabled on the vCenter Server Appliance.

  I can't the powerCLI user because he needs a vCenter Server Appliance to connect to (right?) and to allow HotAdd of the virtual machine must be turned off.

  For anyone wondering, the best way to do this is to connect the ESXi host via vSphere Client, turn off the VM vCenter and update the configuration in this way.

• The traffic between a host ESXi and vCenter Server is secure?

  Dear team,

  You pray let me know is traffic between a host ESXi and vCenter server (vice versa) is secure?

  The VC and ESXi version is 5.1U1a

  Mr. VMware

  Default SSL certificates are installed automatically. However, you can configure the third-party SSL certificates to make the environment more secure.

• vCenter Server Appliance and FT

  Can the vCenter Server Appliance reside as a VM in the same cluster FT it manages?

  FT is one per VM configuration and you can certainly run another VM - including vCenter Server - in the same cluster HA.

• I7 2600 k P8H67-i Deluxe MB and vCenter Server ESXi 5 appliance

  I7 2600 k P8H67-i Deluxe MB and vCenter Server, 16 GB, and ESXi 5 device

  One has been able to run vCenter Server Appliance on this material?

  vCenter Server Appliance does not start

  I run ESXi 4.1 on a server and more office built a user-friendly machine for ESXi 5

  ESXi 5 start ok, installs and runs a test VM ok.

  But after downloading appliance vCenter server and deployed the ovf, the virtual machine will not start.

  I'm reasonably confident that the deployment was OK, as I've done it before on ESXi 4.1 (but on a server with Xeon processor).

  The message of the console is

  
  Message of the Virtual Machine

  operation is not possible.
  Longmode is disabled for this virtual machine
  For more information, see http://vmware.com/info?id=52
  Continue without 64 bit support

  Yes

  NO.

  If I select 'No', I get 'not enough video RAM.

  If I check the box 'Yes' I get

  This kernel requires an x 86-64 processor but only detected an i686 CPU.
  Could not start - please use a kernel suitable for your CPU.

  I've been through settings and advice re longmode, but just can't get the right settings.

  Thanks in advance for any response

  In order to run the 64-bit clients, you need to enable 'VT - x' in the system BIOS. In addition to this I also recommend you activate "Execute Disable Bit" and - if necessary - disable "VT - d" as well as "Trusted Execution". Once done, save the BIOS settings and the power of the system (power power off) cycle. If this does not resolve the problem, thanks for posting the latest vmware.log of the virtual machine.

• VCenter Server Appliance 5.5 update w/o VUM

  I'm Manager my first vmware environment. We are a small company and using the Essentials package. I have two hosts upward with a vCenter Server Appliance 5.5 Build 2063318. I'm looking for a way to update the device for security patches. I have not been able to find how to do that when we don't have a Manager Update server configuration. I downloaded the .iso file but have not been able to find all the commands that will allow me to manually install the package. Any help is greatly appreciated.

  Note that you must connect vCenter Server Appliance Web Console (VAMI) address: https://vCenterServerIPAddress:5480/ NOT the vSphere Web Client that listens on a different port.

• If the patch management can be done by VMware Update Manager in vCenter Server Appliance as similar vCenter Server

  Hi friends,

  If patches of the host management can be done through Vmware Update manager vCenter Server Appliance as in vCenter Server.

  Tell me other differences between them...

  Kind regards

  Sirot Vijay

  1. Yes we can connect to the device using the vSphere client.

  2. in the installation of the update manager VCenter information will ask and he will automatically fit no special measures required.

  3. no conflict. Its just like you have two vCenter servers, but you can not have two server vCenter managing the same hosts.

• Activate the VCA Mode of VMware vCenter Server Appliance

  Hello

  I'm pretty new on vSphere.  I have two hosts running esxi 5.1 what one of these hosts running the "VMware vCenter Server Appliance' with vSphere version 5.5.  I currently have a single cluster containing all the VMS as well hosts and the SAN.

  I try to activate the EVC mode, but when I try it tells me that the host is not allowed because there are powered on virtual machines.  I can turn off all the virtual machines except the vCenter device and I still get the problem on the host that has the device on it.  If I turn off the unit, I can't use vSphere to activate CVS.

  How can I activate CVS when vSphere does not work?

  Thank you

  Jeff

  Hi Welcome to the communities,

  This one is a bit complicated

  You have:

  1. turn off all VMs on Host1 (while vCenter device is on Host2)

  2 bring Host1 on Cluster, select CVS clustered.

  3. put all the virtual machines on Host2 (also vCenter device)

  4. connect on Host2 directly to vSphere Client Windows

  5. remove the vCenter inventory unit

  6. connect on Host1 directly to vSphere Client Windows

  7. the data store when the appliance and add it to the inventory of research. Power on

  8. connect the device with Web client or vSphere vCenter

  9. move the second host in the cluster

  And you're done

• Cannot add host to vCenter server as data store is shared with an existing host to vCenter

  Recently, I removed a physical host to a virtual appliance of vCenter Server and am not able to add it to vCenter Server because I get an error message on the existing data store.  I run a simple server vCenter environment with two physical hosts and shared storage.  I've only been administering vCenter for a few months, so I'm relatively new on the technology and processes.  I searched the Internet for a few days now, but have not found documentation everyone has the same problem I have (which I find strange considering the simplicity my problem and configuration), so I tried to get help from the community of VMware.

  I received an error message a day this vCenter Server cannot connect to either of the two hosts so I removed the host (rather than disconnect and plug as I should have done).  Now, I am not able to connect to the host to vCenter server because the shared storage data store comes into conflict with the same data store used by the host in vCenter Server.  I get the error message is ' "Datastore"datastore_name"is in conflict with a store of data that exists in the data center which has the same URL (ds: / / / vmfs/volumes/UUID /), but is supported by different physical storage." "  I try to remove the host data store, but get the following error message: "resource" data store name: datastore_name VMFS uuid: UUID' is in use. ".  The error stack said: "'HostStorageSystem.UnmountVmfsVolume' call failed for object 'storage system' on ESXi"IP address"."  Cannot unmount volume ' data store name: datastore_name VMFS uuid: 'UUID' because the file system is busy. Correct the problem and retry the operation. "I tried to delete all virtual machines of the inventory, put the hosts in maintenance mode, restart physical hosts, but none of my troubleshooting contributes.

  I don't know what steps to take to get this data store driving with the host so that I can add it in vCenter Server.  You can provide me with any help is appreciated.

  Good thing you already moved the VMs on.  For what is 'disconnect', 'remove' or 'delete' might work anyway.  You should maybe put the host in maintenance mode or even reboot the host before you can remove data warehouses.  In an extreme case, I even had to remove the host and the hypervisor installed completely rebuild on the spot.  It is not that difficult or does not take long to reinstall, so be not afraid on this subject.  A clean reinstall could still save time compared to the deletion of data warehouses.

  Hello

  I found the solution.

  I disabled the JOB BE general relativity.

  and the host where the virtual machine belong was not the right time. No Ntp server has been configured.

  I did and now there works.

  I think that the problem can come from this.
