• Problem with ESXi 3.5 host or our iSCSI SAN

  Hello

  Last week, twice we came into work and notice that some virtual machines on a host somehow the bomb and break the connection or work habit and are turned off.  It happens with mutiple errors, but we are not sure if it's the host itself or iSCSI SAN is too connected a NETgear ReadyNAS.  All the vmdk and vmx VM files are on the SAN storage are loacted here for targets.  Your opinion on this if someone could help determine what may be the question, please, thank you?

• Problems with having a Remote Host for the server vCenter Server vSphere?

  Hello

  We have a single vSphere Host located in the United Kingdom and a host vSphere cluster type 3 in France. I plan to add the vSphere Host UK to the France of vCenter Server.

  Does anyone know of any problem with the addition of a vSphere Host of a vCenter Server that is in a remote site rather than on the local network?

  See you soon

  I put my vCenter without problems. Just keep in mind not to create a cluster with 2 teams who are on different nodes. Only you can manage the remote ESX host

• 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.

• Migrate to ESXi 4.1 hosts to VCenter again

  Hey volks!

  Today, I finished with the installation of a new server VCenter 5. There is another VCenter 4 Installation that actually manages our ESXi 4.1 hosts. Now I would like to move the hosts to VCenter 4.1 environment to the new (5) a.

  Is there a way without having to move the hosts in Maintenance Mode?

  What I read on the web - can I just uninstall the agent, but no guide step by step has been found and I would prevent mistakes when doing. Also, I think that this is not a good way to do it, or?

  I'm sure someone did it in the past and can enlighten us on this.

  Thanks in advance,

  Matthias

  NAAA it should be simple. Cluster resources can be a problem, but I don't see it as a big deal,

  1. Disconnect host VC4
  2. Remove the host of VC4
  3. Add a host to VC5
  4. and repeat step 1-3 for all remaining army.

  vCenter and HA agent will be installed automatically when add you the host to the VC5

• 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:

• Is it possible to add the ESXi 4.1 host to vCenter 4.0

  Hello

  When I try to add ESXi 4.1 hot to vCenter 4.0, after a few seconds, esxi 4.1 is disconnecting to form vCenter 4.0.

  I have two blades, one blade server has ESXi 4.0 and another has ESXi 4.1. Can I manage the two hosts to vCenter 4.0.

  Note: I can not upgrade my ESXi 4.0 to 4.1, I need to test my product on both versions.

• Problem with Windows Live Screen Saver - about Indeo codec

  Curiosity got the better of me and I tried an old favorite game on my Vista.  In fact, it worked, but now I have problems with my Windows Live screensaver.  He stops working whenever it starts.  Not too serious, but very annoying and we love our screensaver slideshow.  I uninstalled the game using the uninstall program, but the problem is still there...
  Here's the problem report that keeps coming back.  I'm ready to try the suggestions, but the link in step 1 doesn't seem to give me any information that would be useful.  I would try the second step, but I don't know if the unsubscription iac25_32.ax will mess thing up - and if so, how do I re - register... Help, please!

  Problem report

  has stopped working properly. is a codec. The file name of this codec is iac25_32.ax. To try to resolve this problem, follow these steps. One step might solve the problem, but if it isn't, then go to the next step.

  1. Click here to access the Intel Corporation Web site to check and install updates iac25_32.ax

  2. Use the regsvr32 command to unregister iac25_32.ax

     If you are unsure which program is causing the problem, you can delete iac25_32.ax from the list of codecs installed by cancelling registration there.

     Warning
     Iac25_32.AX deactivation will result in all programs that are based on the codec to stop working or lose functionality.

     1. Click on the Start button , then, in the search box, type command prompt. In the list of results, right-click guest, and then click run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

     2. At the command prompt, type regsvr32 /u iac25_32.ax, and then press ENTER. iac25_32.AX is now saved.

• Problems with the web interface of connection vcenter 5.1

  Guys,

  What don't understand me, I've set up a new virtual appliance version of vcenter test 5.1, I can connect just fine using vsphere client and console, but the web interface refuses to agree with the same identifiers. What is happening with this single sign? I really do not understand.

  You guys could help me please?

  I stumbled upon this same question.  5.1 with the search service is completely different than 5.0, this is why the others are not working.

  Here's what I did to solve the problem.  I turned on the regeneration of SSL certificate:

  1. Navigate to https://[IP]: 5480 and connect
  2. Go to the Admin tab and press the button "Toggle the setting of certification" until activated regeneration 'certificate' displays Yes
  3. Go to the network tab and change the host name.  This will trigger a regeneration of SSL (or you can change the ip address).  I don't know if change 'localhost' to something else helped, but it can't hurt.
  4. Restart the box (restart System tab button.)

  At this point, you can look at the start-up of the machine of vcenter console messages.  You will notice some messages about detection of a new hostname or IP and regenerate a new certificate.  You will see all the services to import it again SSL ceritifcates so.

  At the end of the reset, I was able to connect to the web client to vCenter!

• Problem with ping the client Host.

  So, I have 6 people running on my host.  They are all seen assigned manually the IP addresses from 192.168.99.150 through 192.168.99.155.

  My host has an IP address of 192.168.99.100.

  My host is only one PC connected to the switch and the switch is not connected to any link (internet) download.

  I have configured my guests for light connection so they can directly connected on the hardware switch.

  This is the question that I have now, when I ping my IP of the host's comments, it shows about 1ms response time.

  but when I ping my IP from the host of one of the guest, it shows demand exceeded.

  Can someone give me a solution for this problem?

  Thank you.

  OK, so I have re installed all the guests with the new hardware configuration of work station 11, now everything works perfectly.

  Maybe something has not been configured correctly the last time where I had the problem.

• Having a problem with vmotion between two hosts with processors Intel E5640

  Hi all.

  We organize a group of 14 guests, each with ESX 4.0, build 261974 installed.

  They are managed through vCenter 4.0.0 and construction 258672, vSphere client 4.0.0 builf 258672.

  The hosts are blades from IBM, in a BladecenterH.

  Some of the blades are older model HS21 (type 7995) with processors Intel Xeon E5440.

  The rest of the blades are more recent model HS22V (type 7871) with processors Intel Xeon E5640.

  We are currently replacing old HS21 blades with more the HS22 blades, so we just bought 7 HS22s, all with the same Intel E5640 processors located in the blades currently in service. One of the things that this transition will happen for us is allowing us to have the same processor type in all of our blades and remove vMotion compatibility problems we had in the past. We were unable to turn on CVS, because we would have had to shut down a cluster of virtual machines on the latest hosts and could not take this kind of failure. We will turn VCA after that.

  Here's the question:

  We just installed the first new knives, and when turn on us and try to vMotion VMs to it, it fails. He gives us the error standard vMotion on CPU register incompatibilities, and that we should read kb1993. The thing is, they all have the same processor. Same identifier type, same everything, yet for some reason vCenter is convinced they are incompatible. We checked things in BIOS, and they are all the same.

  We are ideas, other than the new knives have a later rev BIOS than the old ones.

  Any thoughts?

  Thank you!

• 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.

• Firefox has problems with redirection, cookies are all about, I think that I canceled my warranty.

  When I try to visit some Web sites. Gmail.com and Firefox.com...yet in particular, I get the following error message.

  The page is not redirecting properly

  Firefox has detected that the server redirects the request for this address in a way that will never end.

  • This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

  After try again, it usually works. Sometimes I have to try several times but it works after a while.

  Now, I searched this site and found the solution for this error which will involved tools > options > privacy and ensure that I accept all cookies. I did, cookies all the time.

  I think I played with too many options to my subject: config and it's how I missed this. I tried updating to a newer version of Firefox to see if that would solve the problem and he didn't. So I wonder if there is some setting in my topic: config I could try to change, or if there is a way to put my subject: at default config without losing my addons?

  I look forward to uninstall and reinstall Firefox to fix this, as I have a lot of Add ons and lots of Favorites and try as I can in the past I have always seem to forget to transfer SOMETHING when I reinstalled Firefox.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Did you change the pref network.http.redirection - limit at 1 on the topic: config page?
