Purple screen of death vmware - Dell PowerEdge R410

Hello

I have a few questions on VMware Infrastructure.

I use two hosts ESXi with ESXi 5.0.Dont have Vcenter Server.

1. can I update H/W version of virtual machines without Update Manager or Vcenter Server. Y at - there a patch available to update the Version of virtual machines?

Should I update ESXi host first 5.0 to 5.1, and then update the hardware version of the virtual machines.

2. I get as a GROUP in a file server (Dell PowerEdge R410) was attached.it happened 7 times before, in the last 3 months.

Please guide me for these issues.

Thank you

Concerning

Pradeep

To add to above, make sure you have the latest version of the tools VM installed on your comments before the upgrade virtual hardware.

You can also patch your host without Update Manager - download patches, copy them to the host and run it from the DCUI;

software esxcli vib install path_to_bundle.zip d

I would recommend to patch the hosts first for your do you get the latest version of the tools, then upgrade the tools of the guest, and then upgrade the virtual hardware.

See you soon,.

  • A purple screen of death (.. .exception 14 to the world...) with Vsphere 5.5 and Windows 2012R2 Server (problem solved)

    Hello

    I think it is good to add here...

    I started now to migrate my server under Windows Server R2 2012. The virtual environment is vSphere 5.5 HP DL380G7 servers.

    Today, I have solved a hard crash of the host server after you have added a server Win2012R2. The symptoms are CMTF (purple screen of death) to the host (I was pleased that I have disabled the new customer HA; that would be a blow my other hosts).

    Basic message was "...". exception 14 worldwide xxxx... ».

    I solved it very simple by changing the E1000 to VMXNET3 virtual network card. For me, it looks like a bug to develop by VMware in the next versions. For now it works.

    I hope this information helps you!

    Good luck!

    We do not have a support contract with HP, (warranty support Just). They asked to take it down and run full diagnostics on it (ugh) as well as to ensure that we have the current firmware (we were).  But why we have to run diag on the disks for this sort of thing escapes me.

    Well, the diagnoses are happily cranking away. I'm just happy that we had put this system into production yet.

    Issues related to the:

    Anyone else had problems with the errors of Machine control with new chips from Intel's Nehalem under ESX?

    Anyone know how I can map the number of CPUs in the vmkernel message to a physical processor? HP actually said that we should "change processors" to diagnose. In my mind, it's clearly a hardware problem and they should understand what cpu is themselves and replace.

    Obviously, we need some sort of a support contract, because guarantee support for this is a little lacking. It is our first server HP (experience with Sun). And so far, I'm not too happy.

    I guess it's off topic for Vmwre ESX, but if anyone has any suggestions as to the quantity, we have to pay to get a decent level of support, I would like to know.

    Errors that you see in the newspaper combined with the control of the machine strongly suggest bad memory.

  • 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

  • Dell PowerEdge R410 sliding ready Rails - no connector CMA inside the rail

    Hello

    I have a second hand that came with Dell R410 sliding ready rails which is mounted in a rack in my 22u rack.  I just bought a new MAC for her, but I found that the outside rails have the ears to fix the MAC (and the support leg), the inner rails that the R410 attaches to did not sense that the arms attach.

    Is someone can confirm if the ready rails to the R410 have ears for the inner rail and if yes, someone has the part number?

    If anyone can take a picture of them if possible that would be great.

    See you soon,.

    Chris

    Bernos,

    Compatible track you talk is part # RGTK7 or P8N8P. Together, they will work with cable management arm, you discussed (part # NN006).

    P8N8p is shown below, as requested.

    Let me know if that clarifies things for you.

  • Simulate the purple screen

    Is it possible to simulate the purple screen of death?  If so, how?

    Thank you.

    If it's for ESXi, you can do it using vsish - http://www.ntpro.nl/blog/archives/1388-Lets-create-some-Kernel-Panic-using-vsish.html

    If you are looking for classic ESX, you can do it with vsish, but you will need to get a package of VMware debugging, because vsish is not available on ESX classic by default.

  • Strike F1 key to continue after replacing power supply and pulling the battery system on Poweredge R410

    Hi all

    Recently, I replaced a non redundant power supply on my Dell Poweredge R410. During troubleshooting, I also temporarily removed the battery from the system at any given time.

    The server is back up and running, but when booting, I get:

    "The 4 fan speed can change in installation configuration feature and the option card systems

    Press F1 to continue, F2 to run the configuration utility.

    I think that some BIOS setting reset to remove the battery? I also see a lot of forum posts mentioning the cause of this error is the integrated SATA is connected to anything.

    My hard drives are connected to a PERC via the PCI slot, and the machine has an optical drive. I don't see the existence of the optical drive in omreport.

    Here are a few outlets omreport about SATA settings.

    Integrated SATA controller: ATA
    SATA port 0: Auto
    SATA port 1: Off
    SATA port 2: stop
    SATA port 3: Off
    SATA port 4: Off

    Any advice on how to go about this debugging more?

    Thank you!

    Dave

    Yes, it is possible that the optical drive is defective. Check the logs of equipment. Also enter the system BIOS setup using the F2 key and search for devices listed as unknown.

  • Blue screen of death on a Dell computer

    I have a Dell Inspiron computer using Windows 7 Ultimate.

    I have recurring problems with the black screen of death

    At the start, then I get the beeps indicating a video problem

    I tried the following

    Start - D to test LCD

    F8 - Startup Repair

    Restore the previous good

    I tried Microsoft Fixit

    Installed the AMD updates for new drivers

    But the computer still goes to black screen after a period of time, and when the blue screen of death it appears always points to the driver

    ATIKMPAG.sys

    The Dell Diagnostics and it came without errors or problems of Ran

    Then I installed Windows 7 Ultimate still and load all the drivers in a sequence from the Dell

    Everything is good

    Started to install Windows 7 SP1

    Crashed again at the black screen

    What can I do else?

    Thank you

    Inspiron what?  Dell made a lot of Inspiron.

    What is your Dell's Service tag number?

    If the motherboard passes the Self Test (POST) usually, you will hear a short beep.

    You say that you get beeps indicating a video problem (is this 6 beeps or something else?).

    There is no amount of software you can download, install, reinstall will fix a hardware problem - unless you call Geek Squad and they will tell you that your 6 beeps means your system probably has a virus.

    If your system is a portable computer, it may not be much hope for it except to take it to a store where they might have some ideas.

    If the system is a desktop using a discrete video card you may reinsert the card into the slot or use a different location (power off and unplugged of course).  It could be that the card is defective.

    Now, I've read that you have a laptop with external monitor so if you unplug the external monitor to the laptop you still have a problem of material indicated by beep codes?

    If your system boots it so that we can see what you have:

    Click on the button/ORB start in the lower left corner of your screen. Or, press the button of your keyboard Windows logo.

    In the type box:

    Msinfo32

    Select / click msinfo32.exe and the system information dialog box opens.

    Click System summary, click on edit, select all (Ctrl-A), copy (Ctrl-C) and then paste (Ctrl-V) the information back here in your next reply.

    For information about video drivers, expand components, click view, click on edit, select all (Ctrl-A), copy (Ctrl-C) and paste (Ctrl-V) feedback here.

    There will be some personal information (such as the user name and the name of the system), and anything that turns information private for you, simply delete the pasted information.

  • VMware ESXi 4 on Dell PowerEdge 2950 CDROM missing in virtual machines

    Hi all

    I installed VMware 4.0 on my Dell PowerEdge 2950, and everything moved very well. I had the ISO image from the support site on the website of VMware and Dell. I installed both with the same problem, once installed, the CD-ROM will not be displayed in any virtual machine, I create.

    I changed the boot parameters, the order of the boot, played with the BIOS settings, and no matter what I do, when I start the virtual machine and open a console window and try to connect on the CDROM, a message displays saying that the device is disconnected.

    I have reinstalled Windows on the box, went to the site of support of Dell and applied each update BIOS patch and firmware of the box. Including the one for the TEAC CDROM, which is in my box.

    Anyone had this problem before? If so, how should I do? I really need this works quickly. Without a CDROM, I can't install software such as SQL Server and others.

    Kind regards

    Michael Lange

    I assume that you have added a CDROm for virtual machines?

    You then specify "logged in/connected to the power on" in the settings of VM page? (I know it's usually obvious.. .but I did it very mistaken once this week.. .accidentally added the CDROM to the VM wrong.)

    What OS your virtual machine is running and you have the installed VMTools?

    If issuing a VMtools install on a windows host, it works, then the Cd drive works as ESX uses the virtual CD Rom to install the tools.
