Problems of configuration of SNMP 5.1 ESXi - .trp files accumulate after that SNMP is disabled

Hello

We had 2 problems with our new servers ESXi 5.1 has:

1 vMotions to fail 13%

2. some of the virtual machines are not accessible through their consoles. (Impossible to contack MKS)

To resolve these issues, I came across the following KB:

http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 2040707

I did the step necessary and even created a new host profile where the SNMP agent is disabled. However, on a successful remmediation of the new profile, .trp files continue to accumulate in/var/spool/snmp (above 3000 files in 2 days) and I have no idea what creates these files of trap and why.

Anyone can shed light on this issue?

This is solved in the latest version of vSphere 5.1 update 1.

Release notes: https://www.vmware.com/support/vsphere5/doc/vsphere-esxi-51u1-release-notes.html

ESXi host 5.x appears disconnected in vCenter Server and logs the ramdisk (root) is full message in the vpxa.log file
If Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is unable to handle the number of trap SNMP (.trp) files in the foldersnmp/var/spool/snmp of ESXi, the host may appear as disconnected in vCenter Server. You may not be able to perform all the tasks on the host computer.
The vpxa.log contains several entries that are similar to the following:
WARNING: VisorFSObj: 1954: unable to create the file
/var/run/VMware/f4a0dbedb2e0fd30b80f90123fbe40f8.lck for vpxa process because the table of the inode of the ramdisk (root) is full.
WARNING: VisorFSObj: 1954: unable to create the file
/ var/run/VMware/Watchdog-vpxa. PID to treat sh, because the inode of the ramdisk (root) table is full.

This issue is fixed in this version.

  • Problems of configuration of the NIC in ESXi 4.1

    I have a HP DL380 G7

    I loaded ESXi, the server has 6 physical NIC, 4 on board and 2 in a PCI Intel card.

    The system will accommodate 3 VM - all 2008 R2 Enterprise

    2 servers, I want the team to failover and load balancing

    I have configured my NIC this way

    NIC 0 dedicated to managing the virtual computer

    1 NETWORK card dedicated to a single server running as a domain controller

    Map NETWORK 2 and 5 I want the team to failover and a faster flow on a TS

    NIC 3 and 4 I want the team to failover and a faster flow SQL database running

    I segragated 2 NICd dual servers have a NETWORK card on each card, where a map should fail

    Here's where I lose myself-

    How can I add network cards to the actual virtual machines correctly?

    If the network adapters are associated, I see 1 NIC in each virtual computer or will I see 3 NICs in the actual virtual machine?

    If a virtual computer uses a bundled pair of network adapters, I should add the two network adapters, the settings of the virtual machine?

    If a virtual machine uses a pair of network cards grouped and I see 2 network cards in the actual virtual machine, I need to assign an IP address to each NIC?

    Sorry for so many questions, I'm just getting confused by properly installing network cards.

    I've included a screenshot of what I'm trying to accomplish.

    Vmnic0 is 1 Gbit/s and the others are at 100 Mbps.  Using 2 different physical switches?

    If so, I would put all 3 VMs on vSwitch1.  When you create each virtual machine you can assign just a single vmnic to it.  Then bind the vmnic for the VM port to vSwitch1 Group (which is called Terminal Server now).   Virtual machines will not be limited to 100 Mbps when communicating with each other.

  • I'm having a problem installing media server, it gives me a weird error just after that I accept button. I put in a car 3 days ago, but no response until now I really need this problem

    I'm under 64-bit server 2012 R2

    I tried the installers 4.5 and 5 and both have the same problem, I opened Installer and then click on I accept, then I get an error message that says

    Setup has detected an invalid and impossible to keep registry entry.

    This can be corrected by uninstalling the current version. (this is a brand new 2012 Server installation so there is nothing on it)

    Help

    You can check if one of these registry entries are present:

    HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\FlashCom (or)

    HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\FMS (or)

    HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\AMS

    These entries prepare installation of AMS (or older versions, FMS).

    If it is a pure Win Server R2 2012, these entries should not exist, another former AMS/FMS version must be uninstalled.
    If you think that the registry entry over there for other reasons (bad imagery, etc.), you can remove the above-mentioned registry entries and try to reinstall.

  • Problems with VI Client 3.5 U4 converter / update Client Plugins after reinstall

    Hello

    We needed to reinstall the VC server, after that we had a few problems with the VI client plugins and removed the customer. After that we have failed to have the plugins (converter, client update): we get incorrect setting while trying to download.

    The VC server has been reinstalled by using the same configuration (ip, etc.) and the plugins install correctly on a fresh machine (with no previous install of the vi client).

    Is there any suspicion on this?

    Thank you

    Fabio Alfonso

    When you installed the server part of the plugin (from the CD of VC) do you have to use the name DNS or the IP of the VC?

    Try to install the plugin on VC (connect to RDP and use the customer on site) to see if could be a problem of network or resolution.

    If there is a crowd of syslog configured on the host, or not makes no difference. Error continues to be.

    The format of < syslog > makes no difference, ipaddress, udp://ipaddress:514, hostname all fail

    I note that Configuration > >of the software Advanced settings > > Syslog.global.loghost in the vSphere Client of the Syslog is empty for the properly configured hosts. I guess that's normal behavior. /etc/vmsyslog.conf is correctly configured

    I have read the log files in/var/log/loginsight and do not see anything which is useful for my troubleshooting.

    Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated.

    See you soon

    1. Yes this is the expected behavior. ESXi 5.x support several loghost entries and to ensure that a user does not accidentally remove old entries loghost configure esxi requires a separate command to remove a loghost. ESXi 4.x does not support a single loghost and configure esxi is delivered with the f flag to replace the existing entry. You will notice when you use - help t will configure a syslog target. This distinction is important because t can be used for adding more than a target of syslog. For example, if you have a loghost configured 10.10.10.10, then try to add tcp://10.10.10.10:1514 then configure esxi will change 10.10.10.10 to tcp://10.10.10.10:1514 rather than add a second entry.

    2. configure esxi is provided as a tool for individuals to use, which is particularly useful for people who do not have existing scripts and exploit no profiles of the host. If you have an existing script or host profiles so feel free to use them.

    3. I assume you mean when configure esxi detected what he thought was a malformed loghost. Thanks for the comments, I'll make sure it is considered for a future version.

  • Configuration of SNMP Traps

    Hey guys,.

    Can you explain to me - or point me in the direction - where I can be better able to determine the difference between the following keys.

    config config enable SNMP traps
    config-copy Copy config enable SNMP traps
    config-ctid enable SNMP config-ctid traps
    config-copy Copy-config enable SNMP traps

    Thank you

    Nik

    The trap of the 'config' allows the ciscoConfigManEvent notification, which is triggered when you exit the configuration mode or make a SNMP set.

    "Config-copy" and "copy-config" traps are the same on different platforms and activates the ccCopyCompletion trap and fires when a copy of configuring through SNMP operation ends.

    The trap of "config-ctid" allows the ccmCTIDRolledOver or ciscoConfigManCTIDNotifyGroup, which seems to be related to the functionality of changing the configuration identifier of follow-up .

  • Configuration of IPSec in VMWare ESXi can be applied to virtual machines running?

    Hello

    I have an operating system running inside VMWare ESXi 5.1.  Let's call is "MyLinux".  It is a modified version of Linux which does not support IPSec.  So I try to get VMWare to manipulate IPSec for MyLinux.

    I used esxcli orders to successfully create configurations for IPSec between VMWare itself and other systems.

    However, I wonder if I can use the same esxcli commands to configure IPSec between MyLinux and other systems?  In my tests, VMWare does not perform tunneling IPSec data between the running machines and other virtual systems.

    It is an illustration of the configuration I created for MyLinux in VMWare.  I also have a security policy that is not visible.

    Name Source address Destination address State SPI Mode Encryption Algorithm, integrity algorithm to life

    --------                              -------------------------------------      -------------------------------------  ------      -----     ---------     --------------------               -------------------           --------

    ExternalToMyLinuxSA EXTERNAL. IPv6.ADDRESS infinite mature MyLINUX.IPv6.ADDRESS of hmac-sha2-256 0 x 256 transport 3des-cbc

    When I captured a trace TCP ping between MyLinux and the external system, MyLinux never sent the IPSec packets. Everything was sent in the clear.  This suggests that VMWare does not apply the rule for MyLinux, but I would like to confirm.  Thank you.

    Kwabena

    When you configure IPSec on ESXi, you sécuriserez the VMkernel traffic, not the virtual machine... If you want to protect the traffic of the virtual machine, you will need to enable IPSec on guest operating system.

    Here is more information on IPSec on ESXi: VMware KB: IPv6 and IPsec configuration on vSphere ESX and ESXi 4.1, 5.x ESXi

    Hello everyone,

    Migrate a virtual machine by host ESX 3.5 to ESX 4.1 host.
    No error message or anything.
    I turn on the virtual machine and it gives error "... the file specified is not a virtual disk' to refer to the vmdk.
    In the control settings and see that the drive is properly configured.
    The control data store and I see that the file is there.
    I move the virtual computer on the old host, to verify that nothing has damaged and magically continues without problems!
    I still move VM on the host 4.1 and gives me the same error.
    Past to comb through the newspaper, join, it seems that there is an inconsistency between the size of the disk and the size declared in descriptor.
    How is the 3.5 function?
    I insist on the fact that all other virtual machines, I moved the host esx 3.5 have absolutely no problem...
    any suggestion is welcome.
    Simon

    You are welcome. Please keep us updated on how it goes.

    Good luck.

    P. S.

    A great advantage to the use of converter is that it leaves the original in place. Assuming that it always works, you have as your backup in the case where it is wrong the first time. If you try power off and things will not try to convert the power on the machine. Install Conveter directly on the machine to duplicate.
