• FAILED: An error occurred during conversion: "native initrd patch supports only Rhel, SLE and Ubuntu.

  When I use the converter P2V a VM to ESXi. The VM OS is SUSE10SP2. the process is 98%, give the error:

  FAILED: An error occurred during conversion: "native initrd patch supports only Rhel, SLE and Ubuntu.

  Source operating system is SLES10SP2

  How to deal?

  The source has been recognized as "suse", not as "sles:

  -->

  Are you sure it's SuSE Enterprise and not Open SuSE? Converter supports SLES only.

  Anyway, you can try a hack to make apparently SLES - change the ' / etc/SuSE-release ' on the source machine (or something similar in the model/etc / *-free) and in the first line add "Enterprise." Then try the conversion again. It's the machine 'lsuseinux90 '.

  Regarding the "opscenter' - version has not been recognized too. The second line in the output file should be something like "VERSION = xx".

• Patching VMware ESXi

  So, I recently discovered that my VMware ESXi running ESXi 5.5.0 version 1331820 build number (ESXi 5.5.0 GA). Now, I know that there are a few fixes that have been released, ESXi550-201410001 is the most recent, because as far as I know. It would be convenient to patch, also if this is the case, can I just go what version I am now, download the recent patch and install directly, or is there a few required required fixes before. Active and important virtual machines running on hosts that I would be "patching" it may be closed, but it would be really bad if the patch to cause problems for causing problems for VMS host.

  I'm new to this, as I have never "patched" before ESXi. I guess I can use this (KB VMware: installation of patches on an ESXi host from the command-line 5.x ) as the documentation on how to install those.

  Thanks in advance!

  Yes, the ESXi patches are cumulative.

  Please read this blog post from VMware:are cumulative patches ESXi | VMware vSphere Blog - VMware Blogs

  Another good blog post about it:VMware experience before: are some cumulative patches 5.x ESXi?

• Installed the patch for MAC Java yesterday and immediately couldn't get adobe reader to view pdf files... have troubleshoot-done and can't seem to fix it... any ideas?

  I used the Firefox troubleshooting guides, not good. The patch of Java is activated and shows when I check the requests. However when I run Firefox plugins always displays the java plug in is obsolete and should be updated immediately.

  Hi mrwdrule,

  Have you looked at the Base files display PDF in Firefox article? There are a lot of useful information in there. In fact, it lists two different plugins to try to open the PDF files. I would try the two just to be sure.

  Hope this helps!

• ESXi 5.5 and RAID

  Good afternoon

  I recently bought a Cooler Master case and build a virtual server. The specifications are:

  CPU: Intel Core i7 3770 K @ 3.50 GHz

  Motherboard: ASUSTeK COMPUTER Inc. P8Z77-V (LGA1155)

  Hard drives: 3 to 2

  I chose to install the latest version of ESXi (5.5). The first question I had was the NIC not recognized. I could correct this problem by injecting an e1000 driver into the ISO using ESXi-Customizer.

  The next issue, that I met him, it's the software RAID I built out of my Asus motherboard is not recognized by the installer of ESXi. In the BIOS, I have:

  Version of the BIOS 2104

  Intel virtualization technology - enabled

  SATA - RAID mode

  3.6 TB RAID5 (condition: in good HEALTH)

  I spoke with Asus this morning and told me that everything was going well at their end. However, they said that they do not specifically support VMware products. He suggested that finding an Async driver to add to ISO. I can not find it and have found conflicting reports of whether or not this configuration is still supported.

  In short, my P8Z77-V RAID array can be seen by ESXi 5.5 and if so, how?

  Thank you

  Eric

  Software RAID controllers are not supported with ESXi.  If you plan on computer using a RAID system on board, you will need to install a hardware RAID controller.  Trademarks of Adaptec or LSI would be a good starting point.

• VM Compatibility ESXi 5.1 and later bad (VM version 9) with the network

  I'm having and ESXi host with 10 VM, all connected to the same portgroup on the virtual switch. To allow THT, I created the last slots with 5.1 ESXi compatibility and later (VM version 9), where all the other machines have ESXi 4.x and later (VM 7).

  Now, I'm having the issue 2 machines with version 9 can talk to each other, and version 7 cannot talk to each other. It is not possible to make a ping to a version 7 virtual machine vm version 9 and vice versa.

  
  

  An idea, a re there known issues, something I did wrong? From what I saw that day was to be a major change in the networking between these versions.

  Any help welcomed verrrrrry!

  Thank you, Philippe

  
  

  
  

  OK, after spending a day debugging, convert machines front and rear, delete and remove the NETWORK card I was able to convince the administrator to restart the host ESX - problem solved!

• ESXi 5.1 and VMFS-3 data warehouses

  We have an existing environment to ESX 3.5 Update 5 7 host and an EMC CX3-10 x iSCSI SAN. We go to decomission 2 ESX hosts and replace them with hardware ESXi 5.1 and recent guests. We realize that we no longer able to manage these hosts ESXi from our Virtual Center 2.5 console, but these two hosts will run a minimum number of virtual machines (Exchange 2010 multirole) that don't use VMotion, DRS and HA.

  Our understanding is that ESX5.1 can see and use VMFS-3 data warehouses. Is it true that, once we plugged the new 5.1 ESXi hosts to our SAN and you can see all the existing LUN that we should be able to stop the virtual machines on two ESX 3.5 hosts and start the virtual machines on the host ESX 5.1 computers?

  Everyone has problems running ESXi 5.1 with VMFS-3 data warehouses?

  Some data warehouses VMFS-3 existing could be improved to VMFS-5 because they are only used by the virtual machines that work on 5.1 ESXi hosts. But some of the data warehouses VMFS-3 existing is not extensible because they are used by the virtual machines running on ESX 3.5 other hosts. In other words, a single virtual machine can have virtual drives running on the VMFS-3 and VMFS-5 warehouses of data at the same time?

  Thank you

  Jay

  VMFS version isn't a problem. What I am more concerned by the fact that your storage system is not supported by ESXi 5.1.

• Java ME Embedded support MCBSTM32F200 KEIL and Raspberry Pi model B ONLY?

  I'm a developer JEE and completely new to Java ME Embedded (just started 12 hours ago), I'm confused in the following questions, please help, thank you!

  1 Java ME Embedded 3.3 is supported MCBSTM32F200 KEIL and Raspberry Pi model B ONLY? Or any architecture 11/Linux ARM Cortex M3 / RTX and ARMS? If sustained integrated Board/architecture list?

  2. If the answer to #1 is no, it means I have the KEIL MCBSTM32F200 reference implementation can be used on any architecture ARM Cortex M3/RTX and Raspberry Pi model B can be used on any architecture ARM 11?

  3. If the answer to #1 is no, how can I choose the jury boarded for Java ME Embedded for general use (give a recommendation is ok)?

  4. If the answer to #1 is YES, it should be to limit the use of Java ME Embedded on MCBSTM32F200 KEIL and Raspberry Pi model B; and it cannot be used on other embedded device. Or I have to choose built-in Java ME Client or Java SE embedded (this may take more resources, but I have limitted resources)? Is my understanding correct? Fact Java ME embedded has the road map to support broad embedded?

  Thanks for your time!

  Best regards

  Michael

  Hi Michael,

  Sorry for the slow response. A few responses:

  Our platform Cortex-M with on-board support for Java ME 3.3 is the KEIL MCBSTM32F200, which is based on the STM32F207 chip. There is a very similar STMF32407 chip, which is used on MCBSTM32F400 KEIL and we checked that Java ME Embedded 3.3 works there as well. It is likely that Java ME Embedded runs on other platforms using the STM32F207 or shavings of 407, but it is impossible to check all these platforms. If you have a chance to try one of those we'd love to hear about your experiences.

  For Java ME Embedded on ARM11/Linux: RasPi Mod B is our platform support. Unfortunately, Linux support for some devices required by Java ME Embedded (such as I2C and GPIO) is incompatible - it is a function of the State of Linux device drivers, not Java ME Embedded. We are looking by providing the broadest support for ARM/Linux platforms in the future, which is not difficult, but we have not only got around him.

  Generally, when they decide to specific material for a particular use case it depends a lot on the details. If it's a custom system based on the STM32F207 or 407 chips then the need for the porting/customizing Java ME Embedded should be minimal. If it's a custom ARM/Linux-based system, please contact us as we are already looking for expanding support for ARM/Linux. Finally, if you are targeting a system that is very different from the above, then you can work with Oracle or Oracle partners for optimized Java ME port built into your platform.

  Finally, we intend to provide support for additional platforms in the near future - stay tuned for announcements.

  I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.

  Best,

  Terrence Barr
