• VMotion compatibility - different CPU

  Sorry to post a question, but I just haven't found the answer in the readme guides and admin I have for 4.1.  We use servers for our cluster, all HP DL380 G5 with the dual Xeon 5430 (quadcore).  We are looking to add a few boxes to the cluster, and we will most likely go with the HP DL380 G7 beings are current servers are almost two years now.  G7 will always have Xeon processors, but they will certainly have higher clock speeds to this processor will not match exactly.  In my view, that this used to be a problem in the past, when he came to VM vMotioning fast between the two different cpu.  My question is, is this even a question?  If I stay within the Intel Xeon family, I'm ok for vmotion between two different cpu?  The same of course, brand just diffenrent speeds and possibly different number of hearts.

  Thank you

• ESXi 5.5/Workstation 8, how to make my computer prompted with different CPU

  Hello gurus,

  Let's start which is my goal. I need to create a virtual machine with different hardware (I have no problems with the HARD drive and RAM options). I need the CPU on the system invited to be Intel or SMA.

  My host system is with Intel CPU and Intel part it I don't find any problem. But there the prompt with the SMA is the trickiest part. Does anyone know any thing or any software that can make this possible?

  I also tried to build ESXi 5.5 as a guest on my workstation, but here I can't find how to (if possible at all) the CPU ADM.

  PS Comments OS it is win2k3/8/12

  Thank you!

  Hello Asen,

  You can abstract only that physically you have, so you can't emulate AMD CPUS on Intel CPU hardware.

  For guest with AMD CPU instructions you must use physical server with the desired provider in your case with AMD processor installed server.

  Kind regards

• SRM with different CPU clusters?

  Hey guys,.

  I can't find info on it so I hope someone can point me in the right direction.

  In SRM, geographically dispersed clusters can have different CPU providers? A group would be entirely AMD and the other an Intel.

  I have no experience with MRS whatsoever, and since the VM will be restarted remoetely I think that it would work. If it was me, I would

  remain consistent even if

  Please consider my response as 'useful' or 'proper' marking

  If I understand your question, you will not have a problem with different types of CPU in your clusters to protected site vs.recovery...  The only downside that I can think of is to old versions of Linux not having only not modules loaded into the kernel of the architecture of the chip.  I've personally done this and still have a single cluster of Intel that retrieves an AMD cluster, all virtual machines of RHEL 5.

• vMotion CON DIFFERENT cpu VCA abilitato o not

  Buongiorno a tutti,

  MI trovo a fare questa domanda, visto che mi arrivano notizie da all the Party (Boss) the no comprendo, ovvero quali

  MI dicono che e' possibile, dalla 5.1 e 5.5 do vMotion tra different abilitare VCA, e senza CPU' vero?

  da cio che ho letto non mi seems, potete darmi confirmed?

  The CPU, dei miei sono host different;

  Intel Xeon X 7460 2.66 GHz (4 x 6)

  Intel Xeon E7 - 8860 2.27 GHz (6 x 10)

  Case, posso VCA tra queste CPU different abilitare?

  IOC mi porta an extreme work the VM, the powerful meno della CPU prestazioni con?

  Per abilitare EVC the e' necessario che all the Power-OFF siano VM?

  Grazie di una vostra risposta.

  Ciao, unfortunately by loro, quello che ti dicono non e vero. By rates vMotion tra host different cpu devi avere VCA abilitato sempre con.

  VCA Può essere abilitato tra different cpu purche dello stesso seller. AMD quindi Intel/Intel/AMD.

  Al link following trovi di fra cpu compatibility matrix. KB.VMware.com/kb/1003212http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1003212>

  The VM lavoreranno con prestazioni inferiori. Bet cioè alla più vecchia che hai nel cluster CPU.

  You can abilitare VCA Reed a VM accese, my non potrai migrare what sugli host attive con più modern finchè not the spegni cpu.

• How to migrate a virtual VC server to another host ESX with different CPU ID

  Hello

  by updating my equipment VI 3.5 of old AMD Single Core of AMD Quad-Core a problem has occurred: the new CPU´s of course have a different CPU - ID, so it is not possible to do a live migration of my virtual server VC from the old machine to the new one.

  A migration cold is of course not possible, because after the stop server vc I ve no connection via VC Management Console... of course

  How can I get my VC-virtual server running on new hardware, I guess that there must be a solution and I hope I m not the only one, who runs a virtual VC server and must change the material

  I look forward to any possible solution, thank you very much.

  Heinz Kabisch

  If the VCVM is on the only shared storage remove the virtual machine from the old host and enter it on the new host by connecting the VI client to each host. TO register to browse the store of data and right click the .vmx file and click Save

  If not on the shared storage (but I hope it is) you can copy the files from the virtual machine (*.vmdk and.) VMX file) from one host to another using the SCP. Then connect to the new host using the VI client and enter the VM VC

• Add esx cluster with different cpu

  Hi all

  I have a cluster with 5 esx 4.0 u1-208167, which installed on IBM x 3550 M2 ((2 x Intel® Xeon™ processeur E5520) .)

  I want to add a server to server cluster .the is IMB x 3550 m3 (2 x Intel® Xeon™ processor E5620 4 c)

  do I have to make a chenges on Esx servers / vm / vcenter when I add the new esx for my datacerter and to the cluster so I can do Vmotion / storage migrate this server in the cluater (I have the appropriate license and plug)?

  Thanks for the help

  is there another way to activate the CEV on my existing cluster and does not create a new?

  You can try to create a new cluster and select CVS it and move all your hosts to this cluster

  should I turn off my vm all?

  You will need to put the hosts in maintenance mode. So what you can do is put the host 1 in maintenance mode, virtual machines will move to host 2. Now move the new active EVC cluster host 1 and continue to do this until all of your hosts are in the cluster. You can try vMotion your VM 2 host to host 1 which is now in the new cluster, but it all depends on what your processor will hide VCA is activated... And if you cannot vMotion, virtual machine in a VCA not to an active evc cluster cluster, then Yes, you will have to turn off and restart your virtual machines in the new cluster

  I also have SRM ad site.do I need to activate the CEV on the cluster, I have here (a different Vcenter)

  No u don't.

• Problem of VMotion with esx3i

  Hi, I am testing esx3i (Build 130755).

  I have two identical hosts (HP Proliant ML110G3). Also in network properties management VMotion is enabled.

  I can start a VM on the host esx6. But when I try to VMotion this host to esx7 I get the following error:

  "No compatible host has sufficient resources to satisfy the booking.

  Also the esx6 and the esx7 see the same iSCSI storage a VMFS3 volume on it. The evaluation for VMotion license is valid.

  I can 'cold' migrate the virtual machine to esx6 to esx7 but when I try to start this virtual machine, I see it move from esx7 to esx6 on my server VCenter of U3 2.5.

  ??

  VMotion requires resources available on the receiver ESX host - with what you describe, I'll be you have a cluster enabled for DRS fixed to partially automated or automatic - when you turn the VMS DRS determines that esx6 has more resources to run the virtual machine and the DRS starts here - I would like to look at esx7 to make sure that there is enough memory or CPU available - look at reservations the number of virtual machines running on this host-

• Problems of transparency with different file formats? Photo included

  I designed a logo in illustrator. Part of the logo is a vector image, I created. I am recording this vector image in eps or tiff, must be placed in an inDesign document. However, whenever I try this, a weird white box appears behind her. I double everything in the illustrator file checked and there is no separate white object or an involuntary white fill any where. It is perfectly clean. When you save in jpg or png, it seems, it's just with the eps or tif.

  This is what it looks like:

  

  This is a screenshot of a PDF (made through indesign using an eps). I have it? haha. I used a black background make it just easier to see the white box. Basically, it keeps happening everytime I use an eps or tiff image. Why is this happening? I tried to set the transparency to high resolution when the eps as well. The only thing I can think of is maybe a problem with the shadow of the Crescent? I know illustrator can be weird with gradients and shadows.

  I have to resort using a different file type, but I would have preferred to use eps or tiff, as this is part of an identity system used in various sizes.

  If anyone has any ideas, I would be very happy!

  Simply place the file IN InDesign.

  An EPS may not contain transparency and always have white box.

• NetGroup problems connect devices with different internet connection

  Create a chat using the Cirrus (p2p) technology and NetGroup class.

  If the device is a mobile phone, has 3G or 4G network, and then connect to a same group with other devices does not occur.

  For example, there is a PC and the mobile device:

  1 if both are connected to a Wi - Fi:

  onNetConnectionNetStatus: NetConnection.Connect.Success

  onNetConnectionNetStatus: NetGroup.Connect.Success

  onNetGroupNetStatus: NetGroup.Neighbor.Connect

  A connection is established.

  2 If the two are connected to different Wi - Fi:

  onNetConnectionNetStatus: NetConnection.Connect.Success

  onNetConnectionNetStatus: NetGroup.Connect.Success

  onNetGroupNetStatus: NetGroup.Neighbor.Connect

  A connection is established.

  3. If a device is connected to a Wi - Fi connection and the other to a 3 G or G4

  onNetConnectionNetStatus: NetConnection.Connect.Success

  onNetConnectionNetStatus: NetGroup.Connect.Success

  No connection.

  you are the results indicate a symmetric NAT (i.e., a NAT that uses a different translation for each unique destination).  There is no way for a peer behind a symmetric NAT to coordinate and find an another counterpart who is behind a symmetric NAT different or behind a cone NAT port restriction.

  This announcement by Matthew Kaufman explains the situation with NAT more in detail:

  https://forums.Adobe.com/message/1064983#1064983

  regarding the 'fixing': the issue is not the Protocol - a symmetric NAT is fundamentally flawed.  the only solution is to not use a symmetric NAT in your network.  Unfortunately it is often outside your control (as with your mobile operator).

• Cluster with different host - resource pools hardware?

  Hello

  We have currently three generations of servers at base of AMD in our environment - with different CPU clock speeds.

  Guests are split into three groups and VMs are grouped based on clock speed.

  But frankly, it's a mess to administer.

  We envisage the creation of a single cluster and using pools of resources.

  But CPU resource pools take host speed of the CPU in return?

  - Or they just sure that VMs receive their share of CPU temps on loan-time partial?

  Best regards

  Martin

  Pools of resources sharing works only when there is some conflict of resources.

  -VMs in 'high' will appear on hosts with fast processors? - and get the most MHz?

  The actions are only priority... Then no.

  With a reservation... it depends on how much MHz offers...

  - Or they simply receive a high share of CPU time on a random host?

  By shars Yes...

  But remember the first sentence!

  If you have enough of free resources, all virtual machines are also (for actions).

• VMotion between 2 Hosts with different processors

  Hallo,

  I have a server in my homelab I use for studies of VMsphere and I want to get a second machine to test advanced features such as HA, Vmotion etc.

  My first server has a map of X9SCM-9 with processor Xeon E3-1230V2 (Ivy Bridge). I am currently running ESX 5.0 U2 on it.

  I was counting on obtaining of material quality for the second host consumers because I don't want to spend a lot on it, so I thought that I need any CPU generation Ivy Bridge.

  I tested today with a second machine with a Pentium G2020 Ivy Bridge, but when I try to Vmotion he says "the virtual machine requires physical features that are not available or disabled on the host... ».

  So I figure there must be a difference in architecture regardless of the CPU beeing an Ivy Bridge CPU.

  When I try to activate CVS it just me are going to the 'Nehalem' Version so my virtual machines running on host 1 would not be able to use all the features of the CPU since the Xeon.

  So the question boils down to: what is the processor less which offer compatibility VCA L5?

  Or is there something else to consider in VMotion between two hosts with different processors?

  I got a shared storage, etc. of the same network configuration.

  Thank you

  Benjamin

  Hi Benjamin,

  For compatibility VCA L5 want to look at one of the following models, Intel CPU:

  • Ivy Bridge: Series E3-1200-v2
  • HASWELL

  I would recommend mental health that before rushing and a CPU purchase, check if a cheaper option would be, as Jon mentions in suppresss some fo the CPU compatibility checks so obviously, this is not desirable in a production environment, and must be applied in your study of VMware Lab to the home address.

  Hope this helps,

• ThinkPad T510 problem with the CPU frequency

  Hello
  I was a problem with the CPU frequency - in DC or battery it works 1/2 frequency (1196 MHz), but when my thinkpad plugged and is with battery it works OK (2400 MHz).
  Do you have any suggestions how to solve this problem.

  ThinkPad T510 (4384) intel core i5, 6 GB of Ram.
  Thank you.
  Best regards Nikolay

  What your seeing is actually normal and a result of power management settings. When it is on battery, the reduced CPU clock speed to improve the battery life and only increases in speed if a program requires processing power (games, adobe photoshop, CAD, etc.). If you wish, you can disable this feature by setting the "maximum performance" option in the Lenovo power management program and get into the bios and disable "Intel Speedstep" and similar power options setting. I hope this helps.

  Thank you.

  Yes, you can in a Storage VMotion to one Esxi to another with no shared storage...

  It is important the portgroup bears the same name... This is the reference for the VM...
