• Error 1067 by starting the VMware Virtual Center Server service after the upgrade to VCenter 4.1

  I've started with VCenter 4.0 update online success in 4.1u1

  but now I can not start the service with Error 1067 by starting the VMware Virtual Center Server service.

  I did the upgrade online in VCenter 4.1u1 with this iso file VMware-VIMSetup-all - 4.1.0 - 345042.iso and now the entire production is declining.

  I use SQL Server 2005 32-bit as the database.

  Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated please?

  I guess it's all true by:

  http://KB.VMware.com/kb/1022104

  And what exactly is a failure, is the DB on a different server or living on the vCenter Server?

• How to check what database is used by VMware Virtual Center?

  Hello

  I recently inherited a small environment and I was asked to upgrade ESX 3.5 to ESX 4.0. I'm not a person from the database, but how can I check what database is used by VMware Virtual Center? According to the guide to upgrade the MSDE database is not supported in ESX 4.0.

  I want to just make sure that we did not use this database. I looked in the ODBC Data Source Administrator. Thanks to the system DSN, I saw that the drivers for Vmware Update Manager and Vmware Virtual Center are "SQL Native Client". Also registry editor, I watched HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE-> SOFTWARE-> VMWARE, INC.-> VMware Virtual Center-> DB. Data on 'Vmware VirtualCenter' next to '1' and '4' is set to "SQL Native Client".

  So, how can I determine if the database used is not MSDE?

  Sorry for the stupid question, but I'm not so much with the databases...

  Thank you.

  Den...

  > So, how can I determine if the database used is not MSDE?

  MSDE does not remote databases.  ODBC Open, click System DSN, click Configure.  The listed database is that it uses, and if that is the name used for virtual center, this is the database in use.

• VMWare Virtual Center 2.5 update 3 management ESX v3.5 Update 4 and 5 guests

  I'm doing an audit of versions of VMWare and it seems that our cluster hosts are running a later update version as the virtual center server. Virtual Center 2.5 update 3 management ESX v3.5 Update 4 and 5 guests.

  Does anyone know if this causes problems. This has been the case since before I started and there seems to be no negative effect I see.

  Don't want to update virtual center update 5 as we plan to upgrade to vSphere, shortly.

  you are in a supported configuration, so you should be fine

  http://www.VMware.com/PDF/vSphere4/R40/vsp_compatibility_matrix.PDF

  However, with more agents on new hosts, you can see some are disconnects/no response errors for your hosts in vCenter.  In general, I would like to have my instance of vCenter to or superior to the latest version of ESX.

• Problems with VMware virtual Center 2.5.0 and ESX 3.5.0 123630

  I lost connection to my SAN over the weekend and restarted my entire stack. Everything came to life, except a host server ESX is grayed out and shows disconnected my cluster of Virtual Center. If I right click on the host, everything is gray except 'Add alarm, add Permission, summary report and Performance report'.  I was able to connect directly to the host and was able to start the VM on the host machines, but my question is how to run in my cluster Virtual Center? I have no option to remove or connect.

  Thank you

  try restarting your vCenter Server Service

  ... also, you can restart pass and/or management agents vCenter on the host in question to the service console

  > service vmware-vpxa restart

• VMWare Virtual Center Server does not start after Windows Update

  Help!  I'm under vCenter 5.1 on Windows 2008 R2 with SQL Server 2008 R2 Standard.  I have applied the latest updates for Windows (critical only) as it applied Service Pack 3 to SQL 2008 R2.

  Now the vCenter Service does not start.  It generates error 7024 in the Windows system log:

  The VMware VirtualCenter Server service stopped with the error special service that the system cannot find the specified file...

  and error 1000 in the Windows application log:

  Could not initialize the VMware VirtualCenter. Closing...

  PS - I confirmed that the SQL instance is running.

  Absolutely nothing has been done except the Windows and SQL updates.  Everything worked fine until this point.  Ko an article deals with a "space" condition, but there are a lot of available space.

  I have attached the file vpxd.log, he created.

  Clues?

  Thank you.

  OK it turns out that the WWW service is interfering with vCenter Service on Port 80.  The thing is that the WWW service has been set to manual start.  Somehow during the upgrade Windows or SQL, one of them decided to turn auto-start. After the reboot, the conflict occurred.  Once I put the WWW back service to manual start the vCenter service started OK.

• Microsoft SQL Server database is provided with VMWARE Virtual Center Server Software

  Hello

  I am in a process of buying license for ESX 3.5 and VC Server.

  I know that for the VC Server installation, we require MS SQL Database or Oracle database.

  Please let me know that this database will come with the server in VC software package.

  Or we have to buy separately license MS SQL?

  Please help me in this regard.

  Thanks in advance.

  What is limitations of SQL Express?

  Cause VC store lots of date: host and VM, Journal, permission, statistical data inventory,...

• Do I need to have 2 servers attached to a San to try VMware virtual center server?  or just 2 operational esx servers?

  Thank you.

  VC, you can do with a single esx host to manage. To test HA and DRS, you need two servers, using shared storage (san or a certain type of sin).

• XP Service Pack 3 VDI model - deployment use and Windows XP Service Pack 2 deployment tools?  VMWare View, virtual center of customization specification Manager.

  I'm setting up a VMWare View deployment and I need to configure Performance Manager in Virtual Center Customization Tools.  Use the deployment tools XP Service Pack 2 for my model pack 3 XP service or do I have to download SP 3 tools?  Documentation on the internet points to SP 2 tools, but I can't find a definitive answer for XP SP 3 machines.

  I don't think anything changed in Sysprep between XP SP2 and SP3 of XP.  I use Sysprep in an XP SP2 CD deploy.cab file to customize my XP SP3 image with no problems.  You should be able to use Sysprep tools on the CD for SP2 for your model.

• VMware virtual pooling statistics Center

  Hello

  I try to find interval that the staistic for the CPU performance is available in the graph in real time? I know that the data are available for the last year...

  •Correction: 20 seconds
  •Past day: 5 minutes (300 seconds)
  •Past week: 30 minutes (1800 seconds)
  •Past months: 2 hours (7200 seconds)
  •Past year: 1 day (86400 seconds)

  Really it is when it says 20 seconds in real time, is that it means that the host is pooled to every 20 seconds? Or just as every 20 seconds means, data are committed in the database to the virtual Center and the only way I have is to use esxtop for real-time?

  Thank you

  Each ESX host is pooled every 20 years and this information is located on a flat file on the vCenter server. Every 5 min is rolled to the database and so on... Only esxtop will give best stats in real time.

• What should I run VMWare virtual servers?

  Finally, we are planning to buy VMWare/software license to run some of our servers. I'm new to virtualize servers. So here are my questions. We are looking at the VMware vSphere Standard 1 processor 3 yr E-LTU for HP. Here's what I need to know:

  1. Do we need for this special / software license if we have only one physical server with two processors?
  2. We need vcenter to manage our multiple virtual servers, if we only have a single physical server?
  3. If we vCenter to manage all our servers in a single vritual machine, what is the cost of the license?
  4. What is the difference between vSphere and vCenter? Do I need two to lead my virtual servers within a single physical machine?

  Any help is very appreciated.

  1. you must purchase a license if you want Service and Support of VMware - you can with the free hypervisor - https://my.vmware.com/web/vmware/info/slug/datacenter_cloud_infrastructure/vmware_vsphere_hypervisor_esxi/5_1 - you would be able to add a purchased license within this server without having to rebuild. But please not there are limits to the free license.

  2. do you do not have need of Virtual Center - Virtual Center (vCenetr) allows you to manage multiple ESXi servers and can provide additional services if you are fired for this as High Availability (HA) - the ability to recover from a failure of ESXi host restart the virtual machines running on other hosts or Distributed Resource Scheduler - the ability to ensure that the necessary resources are provided to VMS

  3. I'm not sure what the cost is according to me not more $5000 -

  4 vSphere is a marketing term that encompasses vCenter, ESXi and other products VMware - your will just the number of lapproriate to icenses

  for ESXi who holds a physical base license
