• CAN I VMotion between ESX server with they are in different version?

  Hi all

  I want to upgrade my 2.5u1 to 2.5u3 vCenter, then upgrade my all the ESX Servers 3.5u1 to 3.5u3. VMFS on storage shared SAN and VMotion already activated. My question is if I upgrade the first server ESX 3.5u1 to 3.5u3, can I use VMotion to migrade the 3.5u1 virtual machine remains in the new 3.5u3 updated? Thank you!

  PS. I had been looking, but too many results or not exactly my scenario. So hard to find one suitable.

  Yes and you can even go to 3.0.2 3.5.3 without a problem. Usually, it is the target CPU model that causes pain when he is not the same.

• migrate between the Mac from different countries

  Hello!

  I have an old imac that I bought in Germany (running SnowLeopard) 8 years ago.

  Now, I live in Sweden and I think of buying a new imac here.

  Does anyone know if I could transfer all the settings and data using the migration assistant or the computers "speak different languages?

  It does not matter where the computer was purchased?

  This may seem like a dumb question but I have had this problem in my work with two windows computers and had to migrate manually all... I hope it works smoother with Apple?

  Thank you very much in advance!

  Regardless of where the computer was purchased, but if you run into problems with the Migration from 10.6 to 10.11 Wizard I don't know, it's a big jump.

• Cannot migrate between identical hosts in the same cluster - CPUID level 0 x 1 'ecx' inconsistency

  I have problems of migration of virtual machines between hosts that are identical. They are the new BL 6 490 HP servers with a pair of processors x 5570 @ 2.93 Ghz and I activated the "Intel Xeon 45nm Core 2" EVC mode, there is also two other cluster hosts (HP BL480 G1 with a pair of processors E5430 @ 2 .66GHz).

  I ESX4, vCenter4 and all the latest firmware on all devices.

  When I try to migrate an identical to another or to other hosts host machines, I get the following error;

  Host CPU is not compatible with the requirements of the virtual machine to CPUID level 0 x 1 'ecx' register

  I turned off a VM to ensure that he had picked up the CVS settings. I am able to vMotion, virtual machine when it is off, but this is not enough as we have several "stuck" on the same host machine and cannot be moved by the DRS or manually.

  Virtual machines are Windows 2003 (R2, SP2, x 32). worked well before vMotion on all hosts. Other identical machines from the same model are fast vMotioning very well, and when we were on ESX 3.5u2 wasn't a problem.

  Can someone advise me on how I can diagnose and fix this problem?

  I had the same problem after migrating from ESX 3.5 to V4.0 with almost the same HW-Configuration you have. (BL490c and BL480c). But in my environment, the article you mentioned has brought the solution:

  To manually remove the CPUID masks using the VI Client:

  1 power off the virtual machine.

  2 - Click on the VM, then click on change settings.

  3. click on the Options tab.

  4. Select CPUID mask under Advanced.

  5. click on advanced.

  6. click Reset all to default.

  7. click on OK.

  8. click on OK.

  9. start the virtual machine and migrate.

  Have you actually tried it? The default mask is OK, there is no problem with it in your environment, as I have said already, I have the same hardware as you.

• Firewall between ESX and vCenter vLAN & Production vLAN

  Hello

  Scenario:

  2 ESX hosts with Teddy bear 6. 2 to vLAN S.C. & VMotion, 2 to vLAN DMZ and 2 for the Production of vLAN.

  There are 2 pSwitches to battery-Mode Cluster, having 4 VLANS.

  1. Production of vLAN1

  2. vLAN2 DMZ

  3. Service vLAN3 console

  4. vLAN4 VMotion

  Connectivity is fine no problem. All VLAN works them very well. Service console and VMotion they fold each other so pSwitch failure failure or Teddy bear.

  Requirements:

  Service console is connected in vLAN3 which is 172.16.20.0/24 network under vSwitch0 contains 2pNICs & 3 exchanges.  Service Console PortGroup, VMotion PortGroup & vCenter PortGroup. vCenter PortGroup I want to place the VirtualCenter VM & I'll put the virtual computer's firewall.

  Currently, the Center Virtual under vCenter PortGroup, which is 172.16.20.55. Communication to ESX all very well.

  How I connect to VirtualCenter & ESX host while I am putting in the Production vLAN? I added a static Route in my P.C. 172.16.20.0 to go via 128.104.145.149 "this is the IP address pSwitch" I connect very well without any problems. Of course that does not protect the farm ESX and virtual Center.

  I want to secure the connection between the Production vLAN & Console of service of VMotion vLAN & get rid of the Static Route in the computers in the Admin.

  Bypass the Options:

  1. Physics MS ISA Server with 2 natachasery one be connected in the vCenter PortGroup & to be connected in the Production vLAN & open ports to demand it.

  2. Physical firewall of Teddy 2 a be connected in the vCenter PortGroup & to be connected in the Production vLAN and open ports require.

  3. Virtual Firewall 'SmoothWall or ISA Server' with 2 teddy bears that are connected in the vCenter PortGroup & to be connected in the Production vLAN and open ports require.

  Please take a look at the diagram attached & tips.

  Best regards

  Hussain Al Sayed

  Hello

  On your diagram, I would change your colors. Orange traditionally involves a DMZ not green, but it is up to you. I use Smoothwall for exactly the same behavior.

  Network <-> pNIC1 <-> vSwitch1 <-> vFW (smoothwall) <-> DMZ Network
  ....................................................<-> Green Network
  

  If your front firewall controls access to everything. You can use 'two' firewalls so if you just want to have a set of Red<->Green Networks. On the first, the Red network is outside, green is the demilitarized zone, in the second, red is the demilitarized zone and the ESX hosts are green.

  To grant access to your ESX hosts from a system outside the firewall, you must enable and redirect port 443 to the appropriate location. In fact, I wouldn't do that, create a virtual machine or physical box that is inside the firewall, use the VPN and OpenVPN Tarek Smoothwall addon in the internal location or create a pinhole that allows RDP access to this host/VM and then use the VIC of in the "green network". You must put the kingpins holes in your firewall to grant access you need, so a VPN works much better. You want to limit the number of holes of PIN you use.

  What you describe is quite feasible, but without the holes of the kingpins and proper routing through the firewall is not possible.

• Impose a factor of scale between the model and FPGA

  Hi all

  I have a VS project configuration that unfolds on a real-time system. The project has an FPGA and a model. Some of the output of the cards of the OD of the FPGA model. In addition, some of the AI of the FPGA cards at the entrances to the model. Here's my problem. The AI FPGA gives me a measure of voltage, but the model takes only a pressure (bar) as input. This means that I need to convert my blood pressure using a table or a formula. How to make that happen?

  Also, I want to use the same lvbitx FPGA and the same model of dll on various physical parameters. The only difference between these physical configurations is the forumla/table (for example, a different pressure sensor is used). Is a convinient way to say VS use different table games?

  

  Hi oeua.uoeuau,

  If you have a formula to convert the voltage in pressure, you can use a calculated string to implement. You just point to the computed in your Channel FPGA output and the inport of your model to the computed string. If you need a table of choice, you can create a model of LabVIEW that takes blood and uses a lookup table to get the pressure reading and the outport of LabVIEW model port in the inport else your model.

  To switch between the different scallings, you can simply use a procedure to set a variable to be an entry or another.

  See you soon,.

• Migrating from ESX 3.5 to ESXi 4.1

  I am planning a migration of ESX 3.5 Uptade 2 to ESXi 4.1 Update 1 in September.  Material welcomes VI environment is in place for renewal of the lease.  I build the new environment vSphere and attach to the same storage shared as the existing ESX VI 3.5.  My plan is the following...

  1. Get and install a new hardware server (C3000 and BL460C G7).
     
  2. Installing vCenter 4.1 (leave vCenter in demo mode to expose all the features)
     
  3. Configure the plugin Update Manager vCenter
     
  4. Install ESXi 4.1 Update 1 on new hosts and add to vCenter 4.1
     
  5. Configure the new Cluster and configure HA and vMotion. (We are allowed for vSphere 4.1 Standard Edition)
     
  6. Linking hosts to Update Manager and sanitize with all updates.
     
  7. Configure virtual networks (host profiles are an option while in demo mode).
     
  8. Fix new hosts of VMFS existing databases.  (Data banks are VMFS version 3.31)
     
  9. Disconnect the Virtual Center 2.5 3.5 ESX host and add them to the new vCenter 4.1.
     
  10. Cold migrate VM ESX 3.5 hosts ESXi 4.1 bed and breakfast hosts
      
  11. Upgrade VMware tools on all guests.
      
  12. Upgrade all the guests computer virtual from version 4 to version 7.
      
  13. Detach the ESX host 3.5 since VMFS data warehouses.
      
  14. Remove the ESX 3.5 hosts vCenter 4.1
      
  15. Install all keys in license vSphere 4.1 (vSphere Standard Edition)
      
  16. Start the VM guests.
      
  17. Close and dismantle the old ESX 3.5 hosts.
      

  Any feedback is most appreciated.  Please let me know if I'm missing something.

  Then, you'd weigh your losses.  Do you have the characteristics of the hardware virtual v7 for these virtual machines or can you live with material v4?  Personally, I needed the changed block tracking which requires hardware v7.  It really comes down to what you need.  I recommend bringing them up to v7 but that's just my opinion.

• problems of migration between 4.0 and 4.1 and vpshere different server platforms

  I'm having a problem with my migration between vsphere 4.0 and 4.1.  to complicate matters, we are also migrating server chassis.   The migration of chassis is made for FT.  We discovered when planning for FT consultants, we used initially to configure the cluster FT, specified servers and chipsets that were not capable of FT.  They were Intel Xeon 53xx series.  I use the PowerEdge 2950 servers, those with the xeon 53xx was Gen2 and I am replacing them with PE 2950 Gen3 with proc Xeon 5430

  The problem, I'm running is now that I put in place a PE 2950 Gen3 in the cluster, I cannot vmotion for her.   Whenever I do, I get the following error:

  Host CPU is not compatible with the requirements of the virtual machine to CPUID level 0 x 1 'ecx' register

  Bits of host: 0000:0000:0000:1000:0010:0000:0001

  required: x 000: x 0 0x0x:00: 0xx0:xx10:xx1x:xxxx:xx01

  Inconsistency detected for these features:

  * SSE4.1

  If possible, use a cluster with Enhanced Vmotion compatibility (EVC) enable: see article of the 1003212.  In the absence of EVC, see 1993.

  the thing is that I can't seem to activate CVS as options I selected do not include processors that I have in my servers.  all processor options don't list any of my processors.

  I tried seting the mask CPUID 1 VM and migration, which worked, but is completely unrealistic, because I have to stop every VM to do and some systems that need to migrate are essential.  I tried setting the mask corresponding CPUID at the host level and who does not at all.  I must have missed something simple or fell on a rather massive bug!

  help please!

  Then I suggest VCA as this will take care of him for you.

  If you have found this helpful at all prices please points using the correct or useful!  Thank you!

• Migrating to ESX 4.1 options and VC

  I'm about to start our migration to ESX 4.1 and I was wondering what might be the best way to do it.  I was looking at the compatibility matrix and I see that vCenter 4.0 U2 can support ESX 4.1 boxes but vCetner 4.1 can only support ESX 4.1 boxes not 4.0.

  Current config is a box of hardware running vCenter 4.0 U1, but the hardware does not support 64-bit OS, so I'll build a VM to run our new VC that can handle a 64 bit OS.  Can I put them side by side, obviously different name and pointing to a new database.

  Its more a matter of opinion, should I do my vCenter 4.0 U2 and perform the migration and then once all my 4.0 hosts are converted to 4.1 and then move the VC up to 4.1 or should I get the new built VC and then simply move hosts I will?  In my mind, I'd rather have a VC manage all my hosts and not them distributed between two servers vCenter.

  Thoughts?

  Hey... summer he does that!

  Sorry read the backwards compatibility matrix.  Makes it easy and not our material can not support 64-bit OS (running on 32-bit 4.0u1).  I don't really like about the history / performance data and I have heard of from 4.0 to 41 DB upgrade problems.  I'll just build on a virtual machine running 2003 x 64 and use it to run vCenter 4.1 and then migrate our 4.0 hosts on that.

  If you must rebuild the host to vCenter operating system, and if you have the OS, a better host operating system might be 2008 R2?  Just my personal preference, the 2003, x 64 is supported.

• Live migration between servers Intel Xeon E5410 and Intel Xeon E5506?

  Hello.

  Is it possible to run the dynamic migration between servers Intel Xeon E5410 and Intel Xeon E5506 processor?

  Both servers are running ESX 4.0

  Try to migrate will cause an error as UC and hostbitys do not match.

  I; m impossible and VCA (like a Core2 family and another family of Core i7).

  I don't mind to give up a part of the 'new feature' the Core i7.

  Thank you

  > I; m impossible and VCA (like a Core2 family and another family of Core i7).

  You must turn off all the virtual machines on the host with 55xx Xeons before turning on the VCA.

• Satellite L30 - difference between these models?

  Hi all

  Not really a question of technology as such, but here goes;
  I have a Satellite L30 10Y and in my quest for drivers (now all sorted), I found many other models of L30, including the 10v, L30 x 10, 10 p L30 L30, etc.. My question is, is anyone know the differences between these models? I searched for the specs on all variants and can see no differences were observed.
  Type of processor, memory, general specifications all look the same!

  I thought that the location can be the difference, my BIOS (L30 - 10Y) has only 2 languages available, English and Japanese.
  Info received with gratitude, simply for the sake of knowledge is the reason why I ask this question

  Concerning
  Markkyboy

  Hi Markkyboy,

  The differences between these models are the hardware configuration. For example L30 - 10V Intel Pentium 2080 CPU with 512 MB of RAM and L30-10 X has Intel Celeron M 440 CPU and 1 GB of RAM.

  But why you want to know this?
  Satellite L30 is older, and as far as I know you can t buy it more.
