  There are a few older threads pertaining to these types of questions, unfortunately usually a reinstall of VUM seems to be the fix, another pointer seems to be linked to a path variable, but this seems to depend on what type of h/w you run

• Issue of Update Manager (version 4.1)

  I know, I know... I ask 1 million questions on these forums.  But! -in my defense, I walked into an environment that has no documents, no resources and no one with any real knowledge of what's going on. Ok? :-)
  
  Now, we want to implement the Update Manager in our environment.  I see that there are various updates and releases it to 4.1.  Is it a situation of having to download the original and then install other on it? Or can you just download and install the latest version?
  
  Thank you!

  Always use the version of the update manager that comes with vCenter Server. Take a look at http://partnerweb.vmware.com/comp_guide2/sim/interop_matrix.php to find out which products are compatible with each other.

• Simple issue of UPDATE

  Hello Experts,

  I'm very asked a very simple and basic information on UPDATE. When an update statement is executed. As far as I know, the expected data is read into memory block, then edit its data in memory and a block of cancellation is also created for restoration. I'm just up to this point?

  My question is when this block of data read from a hard disk into memory. What is its header changed block? (As the list of self-dealing in the block header data)

  Concerning

  Charlie

  Yes the session which make changes (i.e. DML opreration) put the information of table locking ITL (which is in the header of the block), so that the other session try to change line information by checking ITL and wait for its completion.

• 3 issues of Update Manager

  Environment: 2 hosts ESXi (vSphere 5.1.0 1065491)
  
  When updating of our guests ESXi the VMs migrate out of the host being upgraded.
  After the update of the host ended the virtual machines remain on the other host.
  1. is there a way to configure the updates where, after the update has been completed, the virtual machine migrated to their original host?

  VM with connected CD players.
  2. is it possible to automate the disconnection of CD players?

  Patch repository space
  3. don't spots roll-off after a certain period of time, or they keep build up?

  Thank you.

  1.) when a host is in Maintenance Mode, it's the DRS who migrates virtual machines to other hosts. DRS however does not migrate VMS after the upgrade unless there is a conflict, and you must do it manually. You can take a look at are DRS rules to place some VMs on some hosts, but make sure you understand the implications with this.

  2.) best practices is to disconnect CDs/ISOs just after its use. In any case, you must either this script or use for example the RVTools who can do for you.

  The only patches 3) that you use to clean up the hosts are downloaded. They will remain in the patch store until you delete them manually (at least I'm not aware of an automated method to get rid of them).

• issue of Update Manager

  If I create a new reference case for virtual with the seller = Microsoft Patch and machines product = all fenΩtres, severity = critical, it will be smart enough to know not to try to clear a Windows 2003 patch on my Windows 2008 Server?

  Yes, but... VMware moves an application to patch if you use a Crossover.  So, if you have other options, you can look at those as well.

  Two issues of Update Manager:

• VMWare Update Manager Server does not work after changing name of host/IP

  I have Virtual Center 2.5 update 4 and Manager Update on two separate servers.

  I had to rename and change the IP of the Server Manager to update, and now the Server Update Manager does not work.

  Here are two mistakes that I get, when you try to activate the plugin Update Manager:

  "The server took too long to respond" or "VMWare Update manager cannot accept applications because VirtualCenter.

  Server is not reachable, or it's the database is not reachable

  by train to stop'

  That's what I did to change the host name:

  -J' uninstalled virtual UpdateManager 1.0 Clients Center customer.

  -I stopped the Service VMware Update Manager on the update server

  -J' I renamed the update server changed its IP address and the host name and then rebooted the server (without starting the VMware Update Manager Service)

  -J' changed the value of the fields

  dbo. VPX_EXT_CLIENT. URL

  dbo. VPX_EXT_SERVER.UR

  -in the vCenter (on the vCenter server) database reflecting the new name of the server (the new hostnameis to pings to the vCenter server)

  -J' restarted the vCenter Server

  -J' started the Service VMware Update Manager on the update server

  -J' installed the client plugin update manager Virtual Infrastructure client

  -J' have TRIED to activate the plugin, but I got a warning about an untrusted certificate (I guess it happened also when I installed the client for the first time, and everything worked) and then I got two errors:

  sometimes "the server has taken too much time to react" and a few other times "the VMWare Update manager cannot accept applications because VirtualCenter.

  Server is not reachable, or it's the database is not reachable

  by train to stop'

  I think that there are a few other references to the host name of the Update Manager, which I have not changed, on the vCenter server or Manager Update server...

  Does anyone have an idea what do I do?

  Thank you in advance.

  I would try just reinstalling the update on existing installation manager.  Do not overwrite the database in the process so that you shouldn't really lose anything.  Not the plugin, but since the Update Manager vCenter installation media.

  Give that a try and let us know how it goes.

• Install the Update Manager plugin on my laptop

  I installed the VIC on my laptop and computer laptop of my colleague and the autcomatically of downloads began. Does this mean that the patches are being downloaded somewhere on my laptop?

  Should I have installed the PLUGIN on my virtual server to the Center first? Is how important it? If so, should I uninstall and reinstall the plugin on my VC server first?

  The patches are not being downloaded to your laptop.  The plugin only allows you to manage Update Manager of in vCenter.  The actual installation of the update on the Server Manager determines the location of the hotfix downloads.

  Don't worry, order in which you have installed plug-ins in.  Just install in places you need to manage your environment.

• Unable to upgrade to or install Update Manager 5.1.0 Update 2

  Hello

  I have Update Manager 5.1 update 1 installed and working. I've just updated the server vcenter to 5.1.0 Update 2 and now trying to upgrade the VUM to also update 2. During the upgrade it kept failing on the login screen of vCenter vCenter Server username and password entered is not recognized. Now the account works, I logged onto the server vCenter as this account and can connect on the client vSphere under this account. The account is an administrator of vCenter.

  I could not upgrade to work so decided to completely uninstall VUM and reinstall it again with the update 2 version, but I get exactly the same error. I don't know where to go with this. I tried located accounts but no joy. I get the following in the vminst.log: -.

  Interestingly, since the upgrade to vCenter 5.1 update 2, our Veeam VM backups started failing. It is said the service account used to connect to vcenter can no longer do. I think that I now have a vCenter problem rather than with single update manager. Of course, I can live without Manager Update for awhile, but not without our Veeam backup.

  Any ideas?

  Thank you

  As a result, we actually had major problems with authentication of domain vCenter. All 3rd party plugins did not exist to authenticate (including our Veeam backup) which makes it a little more serious. We could however connect you if one account local existence on the server vCenter himself. We could log on to the server vCenter as a domain account (which is a member of the Administrators group) and then launch the vSphere client, choosing to use "windows session credentials. If we typed in a user and a password that he will not allow you to connect.

  We then looked at logging on to the web client that has failed with an error similar to the following: -.

  The authentication server has returned an unexpected error: ns0:RequestFailed: internal error during the creation of SAML 2.0 token. The error can be caused by a source of identity with a malfunction.

  We could however login to the web client as admin@System-Domain to display the UNIQUE Admin authentication settings and make the necessary changes.

  So we knew now that it was more a problem of SSO. Knowledge base articles has made the removal of the source of the local identity that we were not happy in doing so, we placed a call with VMware. VMware response was to deploy a VAPP 5.5 vCenter to see if version 5.5 of SSO can fix this (we run 5.1), we could go SSO to 5.5. Also, we were not satisfied with this response as the new VAPP and SSO version probably would work it would be a clean install. He has not proved that the exsiting SSO to 5.5 upgrade does not have the same problem.

  We started trawling through the logs and noticed that there are errors in connection to DCs in a trusted domain (us authenticate not to all accounts etc. in this trusted domain). The trusted domain has been listed as a source of identity in the web client, we decided to remove the domain from the list of sources of identity (after consultation with VMware that said that we could remove it but he wouldn't do anything). We do not think it would work, but it did! We discovered since AD team that there were some problems with the trust between our domain and the other domain and we can only think that after restarting the server vCenter for 5.1 installation update 2 that he then picked up on these issues.

  Just thought this may be helpful to anyone experiencing similar problems.

• Move another Update Manager server

  So I try to spend our Server Update Manager to its own server in our Virtual Center (vCenter?) server. With hindsight this may not be the best approach, but here's what happened.

  I will stop the service and uninstalled the update of the dedicated server VMUM Manager. I then did a clean installation of U3 Manager Update on our Virtual Center service, with a new database.

  So now, I try to get the Extension Manager update from VMware on the local VI Client is uninstalled, or pointing to the new server VMUM. I found no registry keys on the clients or the VC that point to the old Manager Update Server, but I do check the VC Pb.

  Now my client of VI, said the updated plugin Manager is installed, but when I try and turn it on, it expires either (the remote server was too long) or will appear to be activated without any options.

  Any help? Thank you.

  You missed a step somewhere, the Update Manager is VERY simple.  You will not find the registry keys, because it is a service, it responds to requests.  Then the plug-in responds service on VC, all information that responds to updates.  That's about all.

  Your new VC should be turned off.  You install Update Manager.  Then start the VC service, then the service update manager, and if you followed each line correctly and accurately (a bit like the issuance of instructions in the documentation) it will work.  This is a very simple and easy installation.  This is not really complicated, so if it doesn't work, you lack something, does not have something or gave a wrong info for Update Manager to register.

  If you start VC and update manager they give errors?  Did you reboot the VC AFTER the update server manager installed?

  IF all else fails call VM Ware.  But this process should be simple, there is no real major steps.  If all the services are running, it should work...
