• Replying to a virtual machine within the same site

  I try to install vSphere replication v5.1.  I do this without SRM, but just the OVF appliance (s).  We currently have 8 guests distributed between two groups.  We have a vCenter control all this, and all is listed in a Data Center.  The second group is in our DR site and has different storage mapped to it.  I try to use vSphere replication as a means to keep our important VM replicated to our centre of DR disaster.  Is it possible to do so in the only current configuration?

  I'm having a hard time comes to work.  I have deployed two replication OVF devices and I'm stuck trying to replicate a virtual machine actually.  It gives me an error that the data object is not found.  I thought that I needed to 'Connect' from the local site to the remote site, but since this is all a time installing vCenter, I get an error indicating it cannot connect to itself.

  Is what I'm trying to do possible?  If not, could you let me know what I need to change to make it work properly.  Thank you.

  Hello

  The scenario you describe is supported - you can replicate virtual machines from one host to another within the same VC.

  To do this:

  -you will need to deploy vSphere 5.1 replication for a VC and no specific host

  -VR requires VC 5.1. If you liked VC - standalone VR will not work. If you have more recent VC, for example 5.5, you need RV 5.5

  -For replication within the VC even you don't need to link to the target site.

  -Simply select the computer virtual you want to replicate, when you opened a session in vSphere Web Client connected to the VC, point to the same location - must be available in the list, and select the appropriate data store and move through the wizard.

  Kind regards

• PowerCLI Script to migrate virtual machines with the same network Source for the new vCenter Server.

  Hi all

  I checked a few posts on the migration to the new vCenter Server virtual machine. But I'm not very good with Powercli and need some help here.

  We have a new vCenter server where we migrate virtual machines from one source vCenter server. Here are two things that I don't know how to connect together to make sure that bwfore we turn on the virtual machine to the virtual machine is connected to its source network.

  Part 1 - this script works well but do not get any network on the vCenter destination.

  cluster = Get-Cluster "clusterA.

  $inventory = get-Cluster $cluster | Get - VM | Add-Member - MemberType ScriptProperty-name "VMXPath" - value {$this.extensiondata.config.files.vmpathname}-Passthru-Force | Select-Object Name ResourcePool, folder, VMXPath |

  $inventory | Export-Csv c:\file.csv

  $inventory = import-csv c:\file.csv

  $cluster = get-group 'b '.

  {foreach ($vm to $inventory)

  $ESXHost = get-Cluster $cluster | Get-VMHost | Select - 1 first

  New-VM - VMFilePath $vm. VMXPath - VMHost $ESXHost - location $vm. Folder - ResourcePool (Get-Cluster $cluster |) Get-ResourcePool $vm. ResourcePool)

  }

  Part 2 - I want to preserve the Portgroup macaddress and the Ip of the virtual computers and connect them to the new vCenter. How can I do this with the script below. Or how can I combine them together?

  $vm_list = get-Cluster-name "clustera | Get - VM test * | Name sort

  $information = {foreach ($vm to $vm_list)

  $network_adapter_information = get-NetworkAdapter - VM $vm

  $vm | Select Name,PowerState,ResourcePool,@{N="Path; E=       {$_. ExtensionData.Summary.Config.VmPathName}},@{N="NetworkAdapter '; E = {[string]: join (":", ($network_adapter_information |))} %{$_. {{(Nom + "," + _.NetworkName $}))}}, @{N = "MacAddress"; E = {[string]: join (",", ($network_adapter_information | % {$_.}))} MacAddress}))}}

  }

  Step 2

  # Unsubscribe virtual machines

  Remove-VM - VM $vm_list-RunAsync Verbose - confirm: $false

  Step 3

  $cluster = get-group 'b '.

  {foreach ($vm to $inventory)

  $ESXHost = get-Cluster $cluster | Get-VMHost | Select - 1 first

  New-VM - VMFilePath $vm. VMXPath - VMHost $ESXHost - location $vm. Folder - ResourcePool (Get-Cluster $cluster |) Get-ResourcePool $vm. ResourcePool)

  }

  # Save virtual machines

  foreach ($info in $information)

  {

  $vmxpath = $info. Path

  $resource_pool = $info. ResourcePool.Name

  New-VM - ResourcePool (ResourcePool-Get-name $resource_pool) VMFilePath - $vmxpath - RunAsync-Verbose | Out-Null

  }

  Step 4

  # Put the network cards

  foreach ($info in $inventory)

  {

  foreach ($network_information in ($info.NetworkAdapter - split ":"))))

  {

  $virtual_machine = $info | %{$_. Name}

  $network_adapter = ($network_information-split ",") [0]

  $network_vlan = ($network_information-split ",") [1]

  Get-VM-name $virtual_machine | Get-NetworkAdapter-name $network_adapter | Together-NetworkAdapter - NetworkName $network_vlan-Verbose-RunAsync-confirm: $false | Out-Null

  }

  }

  # Start the virtual machines

  foreach ($vm to $vm_list)

  {

  Start-VM - VM $vm. Name-RunAsync Verbose - confirm: $false | Out-Null}

  }

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  Hi all

  I made some changes to the script and it worked for me. We have added a host on the destination with all exchanges and storage mapped vCenter.

  $vm_list = get-Cluster-name 'Site B - b | Get - VM | Name sort

  $information = {foreach ($vm to $vm_list)

  $network_adapter_information = get-NetworkAdapter - VM $vm

  $vm | Select Name,PowerState,ResourcePool,@{N="Path; E=       {$_. ExtensionData.Summary.Config.VmPathName}},@{N="NetworkAdapter '; E = {[string]: join (":", ($network_adapter_information |))} %{$_. {{(Nom + "," + _.NetworkName $}))}}, @{N = "MacAddress"; E = {[string]: join (",", ($network_adapter_information | % {$_.}))} MacAddress}))}}

  }

  # Unsubscribe virtual machines

  Remove-VM - VM $vm_list-Verbose - confirm: $false

  $cluster = get-Cluster "Site A - clustera.

  {foreach ($vm to $information)

  $ESXHost = get-Cluster $cluster | Get-VMHost | Select - 1 first

  New-VM - VMFilePath $vm.path - VMHost $ESXHost - location $vm. Folder - ResourcePool (Get-Cluster $cluster |) Get-ResourcePool $vm. ResourcePool)

  }

  # Save virtual machines

  foreach ($info in $information)

  {

  $vmxpath = $info. Path

  $resource_pool = $info. ResourcePool

  New-VM - ResourcePool (ResourcePool-Get-name "test1") VMFilePath - $vmxpath - RunAsync-Verbose | Out-Null

  }

  # Put the network cards

  .

  foreach ($info in $information)

  {

  foreach ($network_information in ($info.NetworkAdapter - split ":"))))

  {

  $virtual_machine = $info | %{$_. Name}

  $network_adapter = ($network_information-split ",") [0]

  $network_vlan = ($network_information-split ",") [1]

  Get-VM-name $virtual_machine | Get-NetworkAdapter-name $network_adapter | Together-NetworkAdapter - NetworkName $network_vlan-Verbose - confirm: $false | Out-Null

  }

  }

  # Start the virtual machines

  foreach ($vm to $vm_list)

  {

  Start-VM - VM $vm. Name-RunAsync Verbose - confirm: $false | Out-Null

  }

  Hope this will help many of you.

• How to change network name for all virtual machines within the same cluster

  We have recently changed name vswitch to take into account that something significant, in the past vCenter could change the labels of networh for all virtual machines... seems this time help labels are not changed (maybe its got something to do with the update vcenter for 2.5.U3)...

  in any case, someone at - it a powershell script that could find all the virtual machines that are referring to the old label network and then changing again the name... ?

  Enjoy the respponses...

  Thanks in advance

  A few things on this blog could help.

  If you know the names you want to use, you could also just use something like:

  Get-Cluster X | Get-VM | Get-NetworkAdapter | Where { $_.NetworkName -eq "OldNetwork" } | Set-NetworkAdapter -NetworkName "NewNetwork" -confirm:$false
  Get-Cluster X | Get-VM | Get-NetworkAdapter | Where { $_.NetworkName -eq "NewNetwork" } | Set-NetworkAdapter -Connected:$true -confirm:$false
  

• I had the opportunity to see all the drives in windows 7 and XP virtual machine on the same screen. He suddenly disappeared, and I need.

  As I set up my computer with Windows 7 Professional and XP virtual machine, I could see all the readers, W7 and the virtual machine on the same screen. I can't do now for some reason any. All I can understand what is is past is that I got a page long list of automatic updates of W7 and some XP updates and as far as I know, the current page of readers has disappeared since then.  I need this feature if I can transfer files between W7 and XP because some of my programs are in one program of windows. I have nothing special when I installed XP to achieve this functionality, so I really don't understand what it controls.  How can I get that back?

  I have solved my problem by trying everything that moves. Here are my steps:
  -Open Virtual PC and minimize it
  -In the Windows 7 machine, click Start click all programs
  -Select Windows Virtual PC
  -Select Windows Virtual PC (in the drop-down list)
  -When the window opens, right-click on Windows XP Mode
  -Select share >
  -Select the homegroup (read/write)

  -Minimized open Virtual PC
  -Select my computer
  Windows 7 disks will be under other

  I hope this works for you also. As I said, it worked like this until I had a huge list of automatic updates of Windows 7 and XP more some updates. Apparently, one of them cut something.

• Let me know scenarios when different virtual machines with the same UUID are created in VMware Hypervisors?

  Let me know scenarios when different virtual machines with the same UUID created in VMware Hypervisors, aside from editing the .vmx file?

  The only other way I've seen is when you manually copy the virtual machine to another location on the data store (or another data store) and then when turn on/off the virtual machine, select I moved, rather that I copied it (the default option).  This will keep the same UUID.

• Tagged management VLAN and the virtual machines on the same VLAN

  I'm faced with a problem related to our Brocade switches newly acquired and get the private VLAN to work on trunk connections to our ESX servers.  Every time I try something different, he creates a new problem.

  In our configuration, our management of VLAN is not tag and we have a VLAN for this management network that is placed on our switches VLAN no marked native.  We also have virtual machines hosted on those same ESX servers that are on the same VLAN and everything works fine.  However, when I change the ESX management to carry a label on this VLAN and change the switchports accordingly (IE no untagged VLAN native), management work, but hosted on the ESX Server machines that are on the same VLAN can get no network connectivity.

  Is it possible to have a management network labeled and also the host of virtual machines on the same VLAN or is it totally impossible?  I'm not very familiar with networking behind ESX, so I apologize if this is a dumb question with an obvious answer.

  Thank you

  Mark J.

  Is it possible to have a management network labeled and also the host of virtual machines on the same VLAN or is it totally impossible?

  Yes, it is possible... why it doesn't work for you I don't know, but try the following:

  1. set up the Group of ports of VMS to use VLAN;

  2 configure the interface of management VMkernel port group use VLAN;

  3 configure the physical switch port to allow to this VLAN and put the default VLAN natively for these interfaces.

• A virtual machine at the same time...? Which means that for Vmware replication

  Hi guys

  I read the Vmware 5.5 replication, and it says what I do not understand.

  I was reading the recovery process and he said:

  You can recover a virtual machine at the same time on the site replicated on the incoming replication tab

  what it means?

  I restore a VM and I have to wait until he said recovered to start the recovery process or simply means that a single virtual computer at a time and no group of the virtual machine can be recovered I can begin the process of recovery in 3 VMs at the same time, but I have to go one

  Thanks a lot guys

  Hello

  The second. You can begin the process of recovery for each virtual computer and they can go in parallel. However, there is no option to select more than one replication and begin the process of recovery in a single step.

  Kind regards

• network stream between 2 virtual machines in the same vlan and host using DVS

  Hi experts, so 2 virtual machines on the same vlan / subnet and on the same esxi host using VDS need to talk to each other, that they get switched by the VDS internally or they headed north for network switches and come back?

  Welcome to the community - it will stay internal to the ESXi host.

• PowerCLI to deploy virtual machines at the same time

• Oracle XE on multiple virtual machines on the same physical machine?

  Hi people,
  
  Can I install Oracle XE on several virtual machines that are on the same physical machine?
  
  Thank you
  
  G. grangier

  I find that this interpretation is questionable.
  Instance, what do mean?
  What they mean by server?
  Unless Oracle explicitly forbids the execution of several databases of XE on different virtual machines at the same time, I don't see violations.

  For example, imagine that the user has runs that XE on AWS and user B running an another XE on AWS.
  They are not running on the same "Server"?

• Question: Can store virtual machines on the same drive as ESXi?

  I'll be downloading the trial soon and construction of a test at home server. I see that the minimum requirements are that 80 GB for ESXi but does that mean that ESXi needs 80 GB to be run in addition to virtual machines?

  I want to just prepare for the way I need to build it. Will be need ESXi on it's own hard drive must be installed, and then the other hard drives for data storage?

  Welcome to the community - the best practice is to seprate the storage that you House your virtual machines are the disk that contains the ESXi software - I don't think the 80 GB will be inlcude nominal VMFS datastore but I would invest in a disk drive inexpensive in order to give you more storage.

  Another suggestion to get tested as painless as possible - to confirm that the hardware you are using is supported - http://www.vmware.com/resources/compatibility/search.php

• Network problem in the virtual machines on the same switch

  Hello

  I'm stuck on a problem with my small network.  I have an ESXi 5 host that hosts around 10 virtual machines.  The last two machines I install recently displayed an unexpected behavior.  I can't do a ping between the two machines or in those 2 VMS to anywhere else in the same subnet or other networks.  These two VMS, I am able to ping and have network connectivity.  Two of these virtual machines reside on the same vSwitch and belong to the same group of port as other machines.

  The configuration of these two VMs appears to be identical to all other virtual machines that work properly.  The two guest virtual machines running Windows Server 2008 R2.

  So far, I tried several static IP and DHCP assignments with the same effect.  (Including spend another virtual machine a static IP at work known to one of the computers virtual problem)  I tried to delete and re-create one of the virtual machines completely.  I also did an upgrade from 5.0 to 5.1 for vCenter, ESXi host and virtual machines, and I am always observing the same behavior.

  Any advice on what to check next would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

  I assumed that you have checked the windows firewall? Because they block default ping...

• CANNOT ACCESS VISTA BY XP AND CANNOT ACCESS XP SINCE VISTA WITHIN THE SAME NETWORK MACHINE

  I'm using vista Business. while I try to view other machines with the same working group in the same network... My machine only manifests itself in the network... No, other machines are available... and will have remote desktop also does not work if I have an address user name and password and IP address of the remote computer running xp...  Help me.

  Hi NIRAJ KARKI,.

  You can't use Remote Desktop connection to connect to remote computers running Windows XP.

  This package contains the Link Layer Topology Discovery () LLTD Responder. The network map on a computer running Windows Vista presents a graphical view of the computers and devices on your network and how they are connected using the LLTD protocol. The LLTD Responder must be installed on a computer that is running Windows XP before it can be detected and appear on the network map. After you install this item, you may have to restart your computer.

  I suggest to install Layer Topology Discovery LLTD Responder (KB922120) (Link) and check if the problem is resolved.

• Locked on the XP virtual machine within the Windows 7 host

  Not running Virtual Machine XP in Windows 7 to 9 months no problem.

  Left on Virtual Machine PC open, went to lunch, when I came back the screen went black and white and did not.  I rebooted.  Win 7 is running normally, but now have the following message when I open the Virtual Machine.  (BTW: someone other than me has access to this computer)

  When I try to open a session normally I start by getting this error message:

  "The integration features have been disable" close this window and I get the following.

  This computer is in use and has been locked.  Only the Virtualxp-xxx XPMUser or an administrator can unlock this computer.

  This message is displayed in the virtual machine window, BUT!  The window is not active.  I can't read the information.

  I searched many forums and that you find exactly the same problem.

  I opened the settings of virtual window and tried everything I can think of.

  I have screenshots of the menus and things I tried, but don't know how to post them here.

  Help!  I need a very advanced Geek!

  Thanks in advance,

  It is a known problem with the Windows XP Virtual Machine.

  In the future if you come accorss this question here, that's what you can do.

  * Go to your folder of user account > My Virtual Machines. Click once on the XP Mode of Windows to highlight and in the menu bar, you will notice the settings option. Clicking on it will open the settings of the Virtual Machine window (Make sure VM is stopped to make changes). It should look something like this http://i884.photobucket.com/albums/ac43/shetty_akash/VirtualMachineDefaultsettings.png

  * Try to start the Virtual Machine if it invites still the user name password click on tools bar menu in Windows XP mode VM window, and then click enable integration features.

  Let me know if you face this problem again and the steps above don't solve the problem.
