Possibility of setting up new vSphere 4 and pass the ESX 3.5 hosts?

The upgrade path makes me nervous (am I too paranoid?).

In any case, I have enough material and storage SAN to configure a new vSphere environment.

Is it possible to install a new enviornemnt and separate vSphere 4 and then migrate the 3.5 environment hosts? The doc has always start with VC upgrade to version 4 and be careful not to break stuff...

I actually finished a project a few days ago in this respect. I deleted the machine virtual old inventory, moved with the former VM of the LUN to the storage for the new environment group and added to the inventory again. Of course, if you do not use the same storage, it will be more in depth, but it certainly can be done. The plan was to do what weinstein said in his post, regarding the old host to the new Victoria Cross add, but I move the first LUN and had to finish like I did. It went well and I don't have problems with the virtual machine again.

  • New VM vCenter and need to connect to a host ESX1 4.1.

    Hi all

    I'm in a difficult situation not in my enterprize environment, but someho I am very confused after a few hours by train.

    Currently I have an ESXi host 4.1 with some virtual machines on it. One of these virtual machines is the vCenter server that had been upgraded to version 5.1 a few months ago. The vCenter Server runs on a virtual Windows Server 2003 64-bit machine.

    Two days ago, I decided to upgrade the vCenter 5.1 to 5.5, but unfortunately the version 5.5 does not work on a Win 2003 server. So I installed a new virtual machine with Windows server 2008 R2 and the plan is either to migrate the new everything from the former vCenter, or simply connect to the new server vCenter with the host (I have not run any complicated environment, I have only 5-6 virtual machines and the only thing that I would need the former vcenter is a few shots but I don't like if I don't get them).

    First, I installed the new vCenter (5.5) and I connected to the host. I logged in as [email protected] , and I could see the server vCenter there. I've added my account domain in the Administrators group and the VCOAdministrators group, but when I connect with my domain account that I do not see any server of vCeter it.

    Now, what I want to ask you is: you have read above I want to do. What would you do if you were me?

    Thank you for all your answers.

    Sign in using the account [email protected] and check the permissions on the server vCenter Server object in the inventory. Make sure that the required domain user (or better yet a domain group) has the appropriate permissions to the object and the objects below it.

    Adding an account to the Administrators group internal grant permissions required to manage the server vCenter Server itself, but does not apply to the inventory.

    As long as they are the same edition, Yes, you can use the same product key to install the 64 bit version of Windows 7 Professional.

    Skip entering your product key Windows 7 and complete the installation.

    When you reach the desktop, click Start, right-click on computer

    Click on properties

    Scroll down to the Windows Activation

    Click the link x days before activation.

    Click on the link that says: "show me other ways to activate.

    Enter the product key

    Click next

    Select the Activation of the phone

    Click Next when you enter your key page

    Provide the installation generated when ID requested by the call agent

    They give a confirmation ID in return, enter it

    Click next to complete the activation.

    However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

    15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

    So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

  • New to VMware and considering the training & Certification

    Hello

    I have worked on various projects and IT admin job for more than 14 years in Windows and NetWare environments, but have no experience with any type of virtualization.

    I want to acquire sufficient experience for coherent conversation VMware and vSphere in an interview, and to pass the exam, and I think I might prefer the speed and convenience of the Live-Online course.

    Basically, I have 2 questions:

    1. for someone like me, is at - it a real advantage to take VMware vSphere: crash course, or will install, configure and manage of course give me what I'm looking for?

    2 are there opinions on the benefits of class vs Live-course online?

    Any opinions at all would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Chris

    Welcome to the Forums-

    1. I recommend the installation and configuration - it will give you the necessary information to develop a good base in VMware and start preparing to take and pass the exam VCP - there's a number fo son in this forum about what you should do to prepare for the exam of the secure Channel.

    2. The line is good and the same class that is provided in the class but I think the interaction with the instructor and with other students is extremely beneficial.

    Good luck

    I'm not able to use the export to ftp in Muse. When I enter my host, the name and the password, I get a long interlude of the Rainbow wheel, and finally, the message that my host ftp can not be found. I checked the name and it is port 21. I can export to HTML and use another ftp client to download (on the same server), but it's tedious and minor changes is painful. Have you come across this and found a solution?

    Yes I have - thanks for thinking.

    Starting to think that it is a computer / connection problem. I had to move the machines to connect to the Adobe forum.   Plu MacBook thin. New macbook dead ends. These seem too coincidental independent.

  • Still awaiting to hear from VMware after taking the training and pass the exam.

    Hello

    I took the training on February 1 (VMware vSphere: install, configure, manage) and passed the VCP - 410 exam on February 8, but have not yet heard of VMware.  :_|

    Is it normal that it takes a long time? I am supposed to receive an e-mail to confirm my VCP status, right?  ?:|

    Thank you.

    The status on the website of Pearson view should say that the review was a 'pass', you won't hear anything from VMware, until you receive your welcome kit VCP in post/mail and your Workstation 7 license by email - you should get those in the next 4-6 weeks... Bravo

  • hosts mixed esx 3.5 and older new vsphere with vcenter 4.1 esx hosts. Need advice please.

    Hello, I have an existing the vcenter server install managing two esx 3.5 hosts. The vcenter is version 2.5.0.x. I want to manage my new hosts of vsphere 4.1 esxi through the vcenter. I would check that if I improve my vcenter 2.5.0 for the last version vcenter Server required for the 4.1 that I will be able to manage my old esx 3.5 hosts? Will be an upgrade inplace vcenter 2.5.0.x support now the license server in place or I will have to manually install this after? Thanks for any info. Doug Dorbuck

    You can mange ESX 3.x host with vCenter 4.x - you can't manage ESX 4.x, vCenter 2.x hosts

    I think that in a place of upgrade will keep the license server - otherwise you will need to reinstall the server-licensing

  • When you open an external link, a new window opens and displays the home page

    Updated to the latest version (36.0 Linux) and now whenever I open a link from an external application to be steam E-mail IRC or any other source, instead of the page is displayed a new window will open and then load the home page. I tried the default browser to something else (which opened the links correctly) switching and vice versa, safe mode and even a refresh, but the problem persists.

    I found this in the bug tracker.

    Apparently it seems to be a problem with an old hack in XFCE or desktop environments possible on X in general, which is no longer supported in Firefox 36. A solution fast until they solve this problem, is to open a new terminal and enter:

    sudo gedit /usr/share/xfce4/helpers/firefox.desktop
    (replace gedit by any other text editor you use)
    .. .and change the last two lines:
    X-XFCE-orders = %B - distance "openURL (about: Virgin, new window)"; %B;
    X-XFCE-CommandsWithParameter = %B - remote "openURL (%s)"; %B %s;
    to read:
    X-XFCE-orders = %B;
    X-XFCE-CommandsWithParameter = B %%s;
    then save the document, of course.

    This solves the problem for me immediately.

  • Portege Z930 - new Windows 7 and installing the driver

    I have a Toshiba Portege Z930 Ultrabook.

    I don't use it for a while because he was very very slow when navigating or attempt to perform other tasks. I scanned the system with several antivirus (now I have Avast and Fixila, but I also used Kaspersky and Norton) and nothing came.

    Now, I decided to reinstall Windows.
    So, I received a kit of Windows 7 Pro (it's the license granted with the laptop) and I'm fighting for a week to make it work properly.

    Now seems as graphics card does not work, I have most of the hard disk full some old files of windows, etc, etc.

    1. How is the right way to install a new version of windows on this laptop (without the old installation files) and use the accessories available on the laptop (graphics card, fingerprints... tool)

    And YES, I tried all THE drivers available on the Toshiba support successfully section only for the wireless card.

    2. have you had problems with the speed?

    Thank you
    Victor

    Hello

    > Now looks like graphics card does not.

    Does that mean exactly? Graphics card is recognized correctly in the Device Manager?
    In case it is, the driver is installed and works of the GPU.

    What Portege Z930-xxx are you?
    The exact part number might be useful to check the specs of the laptop.

    By the way: the driver / software installation is not very difficult.
    Forget the other Toshiba software if you n t want to install it
    Pick up the pilots only...

    However, some parts of the software as a value-added Package must be installed because this package installs a range of important public services.
