Problem with HP DL 360 G6 with ESXi 4.0

Dear all,

We have a HP DL360G6 server and we have installed ESXi 4.0. After that copy us a file to the data store or install a virtual machine, and after that restart the server, the server can not boot and lost everthing. We tried to fix with ESXi Installer and it says that the disc contains "invalid or damaged partition table".

Thanks for the answers in advance.

Kind regards

  • Having problems with ESXi/vSphere Client Network

    First of all, I apologize if it's thread is in the wrong section.

    I recently installed ESXi v6.0.0 in VMware Workstation 12.0 trying to familiarize myself with ESXi as I recently graduated and I forgot most of what I learned from the class I took.

    Then, ESXi installed smoothly and was very painless.

    Then, I tried to create a virtual machine. It's when things are messy. I can't understand why, but I don't get any network connectivity after obtaining a DHCP address to all within the virtual machine, in addition to being able to ping the host ESXi itself.

    First of all, networking is like so:

    10.10.10.1 router/gateway

    10.10.10.254 DHCP, DNS, server, VMware Workstation files 12

    10.10.10.250 ESXi host

    10.10.10.244 ESXi reviews - Windows 7

    Googles DNS 8.8.8.8

    VMware workstation 12:

    AMD FX-8350

    Intel Corporation 82574L Gigabit Network Connection

    NVIDIA Corporation GF119 [GeForce GT 520] (rev a1) - However, not allowed to work with VMware VMware or xvnc throws a fit to this topic

    ESXi host

    Images: 2015-10-04_21-13 - 57.png, 2015-10-04_21-14 - 34.png

    The vSwitch has the following properties:

    Image: 2015-10-04_21-19 - 38.png


    And the following then occurs on the ESXi prompt:

    Images:,2015-10-04_21-01 - 58.png, 2015-10-04_21-03 - 32.png


    I can't really understand what the problem is, or what is happening. Yes, I could set up an internal network of the virtual machine with a firewall and what not, but I was hoping that there would already network connectivity while I wouldn't do. Also, is it possible to make attachments online?


    Thanks for all their help

    This could be a problem of permission on the host vmnet adapter, see http://kb.vmware.com/kb/287.

  • Debian Wheezy 7 - iSCSI / LIO problem with ESXi 5.0

    Hi all

    I had a Debian Wheezy on a HP ML310e server. This server should be used as an iSCSI - storage server.

    Unfortunately I am not able to connect my 5.0 with LIO iSCSI target ESX servers.

    I used the implementation of LIO (targetcli) for iSCSI and I used the official installation manual Linux target SCSI - ISCSI.

    I know that the discovery of the Portal works, because when I enter the IP Address of storage in the dynamic discovery, the two portals of storage can be found. BUT any new features.

    I disabled the CHAP authentication, because I thought that it might have to do with it, but still no go.

    My Windows 2003 R2 64 bit backup server can connect without a problem.

    I have a feeling it's something small, but unfortunately I can't find any debugging or a newspaper for the login process.

    Here is some info on my system:

    4 ESXi 5.0 x 623860 mit vCenter 5.0.0 623373

  • Problem with ESXi crashing on

    Hi all, looking for a few tips, recently did an upgrade to vCenter 5.0 to 5.5 all seem to go well. So next i deployed ESXi 5.5 to a host of test (HP Proliant DL360 G5) using the custom HP, once again the upgrade image seems fine, I have now a mixture of 2 x 5.0 hosts and 1 x 5.5 host in my environment. Now, the problems I have are:

    1. I can see is more monitoring equipment in the vCenter on my 5.0 hosts, I get an error, "the service of monitoring equipment is not available on this host or does not" tried restarting the service of the CIM on the hosts but no chance, not yet been able to reboot the host. I will modernize these hosts to 5.5 Finally so I hope it's a compatibility problem between the vCenter in 5.5 and 5.0 hosts. My reasoning for this is that on my test host that I've updated to 5.5, I can see hardware monitoring and reporting works OK - with 1 exception which I elaborate on below...

    2. after my upgrade to 5.5 on my test host computer although the hardware monitoring works after every reboot of the CIM service host seems down, a few minutes storage components of my screen (storage and battery) server in the status tab of the hardware, but shortly after they both disappear If I go into the security profile and restart the service of the CIM on the host, and then click on "Update", under the condition of the equipment, the two batteries and storage return under supervision and as far as I can see that they stay there until the host is restarted, and the cycle starts again. I installed the last HP Offline bundles on the host.

    3. my biggest problem though is the following. After my upgrade to 5.5 on my test server, everything seems to work very well. However, it is the second morning in a row (had 5.5 running since Tuesday this week) that I came into the Office to find that my 5.5 test host is disconnected in my vCenter server, when it was connected and managed until I left the night before. I can not AT ALL on the host without having to reboot it completely. I tried:

    • SSH to the host
    • Live Console
    • Remove and readd in vCenter
    • client vSphere for vCenter Server
    • vSphere Client directly to the host
    • vCenter Webclient

    Whenever he gives me the different errors that my credentials are not valid or that the user name or password is incorrect, I use root credentials I know are correct, and if I reboot the host then I can connect to the host using one of the above methods using the same credentials I use now. Yesterday, I was able to connect to the host using the client vSphere that allows me to put it in maintenance mode and it reboot, this morning but my only option is a hard reset on the server.

    My VM on the host are available I can ping and RDP for them and they have full network access, but I can't manage the host on which they are sitting on. This isn't a problem now in my test configuration, but I won't go live until I've been overcome these bugs. The host responds to the Ping and the console directly on the face seems to be running and not crashed.

    I'm relatively new to ESX on this scale, so any advice would be warmly received.

    Thank you.

    OK, I added a little more memory for the machine and another CPU, I had lying around and this solved my most problem machines to crash on.

    Also a restart of the other guests brought material followed back to life and the upgrade to 5.5 worked well on other machines with all the existing monitoring equipment.

    So it seems that some issues were down to compatibility were 'other' allocation of resources.

  • Problems with ESXi 4.1 on an ML370

    I am new not only for the community but for VM in general.  I have sought the advice, but can't find anything that helps so I ask the group.

    I have a new HP ML370 G6 server and I am trying to load ESXi 4.1 on it.

    The problem I have is that the internal DVD will work up to where the Setup program asks if I want to load custom drivers.  It is not that I found so I answer No.  The charge continues, but when you are prompted for the location of the CD there is no device to choose.

    If I plug in an external USB disk I can complete the load but then I can not load a client OS in a virtual machine because the internal DVD is not a resource known on the host.

    When I try to load the OS client from the external drive I can't allocate the device to the virtual machine.

    I would really like to know how to get the inner workings of DVD.

    I contacted HP, but they were no help saying that it is a question of OS.

    Please someone with more experience, please help.

    Welcome to the community,

    You can basically replace the CD/DVD-ROM drive with another of for example a laptop and I am sure that it will work. For me, this looks like a firmware issue in readers used by HP, but that's my personal opinion.

    I usually create ISO CD-ROM or DVD images and copy them to a new folder (for example ISO-Repository) on the ESXi host data store. Instead of pointing the virtual CD-ROM drive on the physical disk, set the ISO image.

  • Problems with ESXi 5.1 and 5.0 in a WS9 EFI - VM

    Hello Jim

    I'm testing ESXi LiveCDs to version 5.0 and 5.1.
    In the LiveCD, I use a state.tgz to enable SSH and ESXi-shell and set a password.
    The LiveCD works fine if I use them on WS 9 virtual machines with firmware = "bios".

    If I try the same CD in a virtual machine with the firmware = "efi" I am not able to get the network began.
    If I built a CD that does not use the state.tgz the network is fine.

    For now, I'm building the CD with different boot.cfgs for MBR and boot EFI.
    But I prefer to use the boot.cfg even with a state.tgz that works for both scenarios.

    I enclose the EFI - VM's vmx file and the state.tgz file.

    Great!

  • Problem with ESXi 4.0 with Allocation of disk on a virtual computer

    Hello Experts

    Physical server:

    HP DL 380 2 proc Intel Xeon 4 GB RAM

    6 x 146 GB HDD (with RAID5) = > total available capacity 650 GB

    Problem:

    I am creating a VM with OS = DEBIAN6

    When I allocate 300 GB HARD drive for the virtual machine, it gives me just 256GB.

    I don't understand the reason.

    I read that this could be linked to the BLOCK SIZE.

    What is your opinion? If so, how can I change the block size?

    Thanks in advance

    Options of your choice after.

    Block size of 1 MB = Max VMDK 256 GB

    2MB block size = Max VMDK 512 GB

    4MB block size = Max VMDK 1024 GB

    Block size of 8MB = Max VMDK 2048 GB

    First calculation of disk space when set up 2 MB to 512 GB.

  • problem with esxi

    Hello

    I have a dedicated server with Intel Core 2 X 5650. I want to create three virtual machines:
    A machine with 10 hearts, one with 8 cores and the other with its four hearts.
    Unfortunately, I can go up to 8 cores / maximum machines. And when I create a virtual machine with 8 cores, I get the following error:

    (in french: the vsmp function is not licensed, of requires 8, 4)

    VSMP function is not approved, requires 8, 4

    How can I start a virtual machine with more than 4 cores?

    Thank you

    Hello and welcome to the forums.

    You will need to have company + licenses, in order to get 8 vCPUs.

    Good luck!

  • Problem with ESXi 3.5 host or our iSCSI SAN

  • Problems with esxi 4.1 hosts about vcenter 5?

    I'm in a situation where I want to update my server vcenter V5, but am not able to upgrade all of my esxi 4.1-5 hosts.

    4.1 host will need licenses on the vcenter v5 v5 or will it take 4.1 license keys?

    You have to run for about 1 or 2 months before all the esx hosts can go to v5.

    Guests 4.x will continue to use the vSphere licenses 4. vCenter will require you a new license key for itself when you upgrade to 5, and ESXi hosts, you are upgrading will require licenses on vSphere 5.

  • Purple screen of death with ESXi 3.4 U4

    Hi all

    I lived I have a strange problem with esxi 3.5 U4. Yesterday morning I got the purple screen on one of my hosts esxi test, if anyone can give me any idea what this error means.

    on the host, it there was only one virtual machine running with ubuntu server on it. The thing I noticed is that my colleague, who install the ubuntu Server I forgot to install vmware tools. Can this be the cause of this error.

    After a reboot and the vmware tools install everything I work, but I don't know what was the problem in the first place, so I appreciate your responses.

    Kind regards

  • Problem with the certificate on Xbox 360 system Internet Explorer error

    Original title: that is this "problem with certificates?

    I have been using Bing on my Xbox 360 Internet Explorer system for years with little trouble. Today, I cleaned the history since he was a little slow again, but now I am unable to connect to Bing (or really any Microsoft site) through the Xbox 360 Internet Explorer. Whenever I try, I keep coming to a screen message saying that there is a problem with the certificate on the site. I am able to log in and connect to these same sites fine on my computer, but I don't have access to my computer all the time, so it was nice to be able to use Bing on my Xbox 360, but now with this error I can't. What is the cause of this, and what can be done to remedy this.

    It seems that a recent patch for the application of EI on the Xbox 360 has solved this problem now.

  • Problem with the start of VMware ESXi 5.0

    I just installed VMware ESXi 5.0 on a new Cisco UCS B200 series blade with two 300 GB hard drives configured in a RAID 1 mirror.  I went through and completed the installation of VMware ESXi 5.0 on this server.  When the installation is complete and the server restarted, he did not initiate the ESXi where I can change the IP address and VLAN.  Instead, I get this text string after the initial boot sequence that is shown in the attachment.  I have a guest who said Shell > do not know why I can not start correctly in ESXi 5.0.  Thank you!  Paul

    Hi Paul,.

    Looks like you boot to the EFI shell. What is the startup policy that you have configured on this server service profile? It should look like the one below.  If there is a problem with the boot order, you should be able to type "EXIT", then enter on the EFI shell to exit the prompt. If your startup is similar to the one below and you still experience this issue, try to downgrade and re - ack the blade.

    Let me know if it helps.
