Query related to multi site VMWare esxi 5 according to the installation program.

Hi all

We have several distributed sites based on vSphere 5 according to the installation program which are the ESXi host 5.1, 5.1 vCenter and a storage for each site... Now, we anticipate adding distributed locations all host esx to vCenter built one of our new site.

So, what should be the best way to achieve this.

(1) is it advisable to add the distributed over wan to vCenter site on a different location?

(2) can we also go with modes related? Since all our existing site already live, do we need to re - install vCenter to have bound mode installed?

Concerning

Hi, as long as you have enough bandwidth between sites, you can add you remote cluster to vcenter.  I've done this before and I had no problems.  Your approach depends on the configuration of your environment.  If you have existing vCenter installed on each site, you can use the linked modes, and you don't need to reinstall to set up connected mode. vSphere Documentation Centre

  • VMware ESXi does not support the RAID on HP Proliant ML110 G5 drives

    Hello

    I installed VMware ESXi on my HP Proliant ML110 G5. I got 3 hard drives on my server at the moment, one of them is VMware ESXi and other two are RAID1.
    Whenever I connect to my server via vSphere client I have the chance to see every HARD drive (datastore) separately.  Is it possible that VMware does not RAID installation?
    I would need to see these two hard drives as a data store. Do you have any ideas on how I can do?
    Thank you.

    like any other typical server, you need to configure the sata raid controller RAID5/RAID0. but keep in mind that this controller without any battery backed cache would have very horrible performance. Another way is that you can use datastore span to provide as a large store of data, but if you lose all of the computer, you will lose all data.

  • They killed the unity mode in VMWare Player 12. Can I get the installation program for Player 7

    Really sucks - VMWare killed unity Player 12 mode. If I had known that I have would have stuck to 7 Player - it worked very well.

    Anyone know if it is possible to get the installer for 7?

    Thank you

    Yes, we have abandoned the support unit for Linux customers only.  It is sad to see the function will, but our information indicates that Linux unit has been rarely used, and it was extremely difficult to maintain a level of quality that our customers expect, so we took the difficult decision to remove it.

  • VMware ESXi WARNING - battery on the controller workload 0...

    Hello world

    I get this warning frequently daily some of my ESXi server that runs on Dell Power Edge 2950 - III:

    Status: Warning (yellow)

    Alarm: State of the sensor changed hardware host

    Duration: 2010-10-24 22:30:55

    Sensor "on controller 0 battery charge...". "equal attention.

    Sensor 'State of health Rollup VMware' equal attention

    is there something wrong with my server ESXi?

    Thank you.

    As written it is a normal feature of the PERC controller which has a cycle of learning for the battery.

    On vsphere 4.0 this task generate a lot of alarms, but after I upgraded to 4.1 I got the alarms only during the learning cycle.

  • Local users of VMware ESXi 5.5 for the oversight role of the CIM

    Hello, is it possible to create local users in ESXi and assign roles and permissions to manage only CIM interactions? I learned that local groups are not supported to 5.1 from. This means that we cannot add a role (for CIM Interactions only) for a local user created on ESXi? Please advise!

    Thank you!

    Why not give a user privileges? Maybe he needs admin access to host not only CIM interactions. Any problem with giving Admin privileges?

  • Cannot find a device supported to write image vmware esxi 4.1.0

    I have a Dell Poweredge R410 (service tag XXJ1FQ1) with a Raid 10 for PERC S300 controllers with 4X250GB drives.

    I downloaded the iso 4.1.0 ESXI and can boot from the DVD, but after agreeing to the terms. The installation program will fail and I get this error:

    «Could not find a device supported to write image VMware ESXI 4.1.0 to.»

    I checked the compatibility Web site: http://partnerweb.vmware.com/comp_guide2/detail.php?deviceCategory=server & productid = 4932 deviceCategory = server & partner = 23 & releases = 24 & keyword = poweredge % 20r410 & systemTypes = 2 & page = 4 & display_interval = 10 & sortColumn = Partner & sortOrder = CSA

    And my system should be OK.

    Has anyone experience this problem? And how to do this?

    Easy.  You cannot use the card s300.

    S300 work only in windows environments.  I also learned that the way lasts.  (Thanks Dell!)

  • What is the Kingdom of multi site profile

    Hi all

    What is an average of Kingdom to ATG? What is the role of the Kingdom in Multi site profile? I went through the docs of the ATG, but I was not able to understand the exact meaning.

    A profile can be associated with a site using profile Kingdom. that means him.

    Thank you

    TT

    Trade Oracle ATG Web - profile realms, it looks like realms of profile allow you to have a single account for multiple sites or allow you to have an account for a group of sites, but not another.

    For example, if you have 3 sites (electronic website, clothing and kitchen utensils Site), you can create a profile named welcome the Kingdom of goods Kingdom that has electronic Site and kitchen utensils and a Kingdom called Kingdom of clothes clothing Site containing profile. If a user creates an account on the website, the account will allow you to connect on the Site of kitchen utensils, but not the Site of clothing because the site of kitchenware is in the same domain and clothing is not. To connect on clothing, you need to create an account on a site in this area.

  • Cannot import Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 with Hyper-V virtual machines to VMware ESXi 4.

    Hi team,

    I use VMware vCenter Converter Standalone to import certain Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 with Hyper-V virtual machines to VMware ESXi 4, using another Windows Server 2008 R2 as the machine Agent Converter. Well, the agent connects to the Windows VM source very well (I used the net use command to create a line of conduct...), perhaps no chance to connect to the computer target VMware ESxi 4 and make the converter doesn't work...

    Following is the error message:

    "Unable to connect to the host specified" from the converter agent machine. " It is perhaps because the host is not available on the network, there is a problem with the network configuration or management on this host services do not react. Check all components of converter to be able to connect.

    So, my question is; is it possible to create a work around (like the net use Windows command above) to make possible the connection of the converter Agent on Linux VMware ESXi 4 machine Windows machine, to directly import the virtual machines of Windows Hyper-V to Linux VMware?

    Thanks in advance,

    It's even easier than that

    Use this: http://www.winimage.com/

    Which will convert *.vhd *.vmdk, so you don't need to do all this... Of course, another way is to start the machines, leaving them on Hyper-V and go through the network and process virtual machine as physical machines and do a P2V on the network...

  • Install ESXi 5.5 restarts the Adaptec RAiD card

    Hello

    I have a job im trying to install ESXi 5.5 on. I got it running on the machine perfectly well until I added a map of Adaptec Raid 3805. Now when I try to install ESXi it restarts everything when trying to load the AACRAID driver. It isn't hanging or show all errors. It just restarts immediately.

    VMware claim the Adaptec 3805 is compatible with ESXi 5.5

    Anyone got any ideas on why this is happening?

  • The installation of VMWare View Server program

    Hello

    I have a solution of ESXi, vSphere 5 where I host all my virtual servers with a virtual vCenter Management Standard.  I'm working on that I need for a configuration of VMWare View and I was hoping someone here could help me.

    I have 12 physical blades to host my VMWare View solution (according to the calculations of number of jobs) and I have VMWare View Bundle licenses.

    Ive been reading through the notes and he says that this set comes with an edition of vCenter.

    A few questions:

    My existing vCenter instance should be used to manage the VMWare View host or do I need to install a separate instance of vCenter VMWare View and use the license in the bundle?

    I guess I should install ESXi instances in the beam that will allow me to supply only desktop computers?

    If I have servers connection and composer, should they be hosted in Clusters VMWare View or the cluster of servers existing vsphere 5?

    If this is the case, I also have a question about the network configuration.  When I install the ESXi for VMWare View, will I still have a requirement for a management console, the vmkernel, and the 'Front End' (for users IP address) vnic to the vswitch?

    Another question about the round rbin DNS.  I try to also install Connection 2 and 2 servers of composer whose load is balanced.  Anyone has any info on setting up of Robin DNS?

    Thank you very much

    We use a 6 with network storage based physical NETWORK adapter configuration.

    You will have a default port for management.  vMotion is split to its own IP address, and these two vmkernel ports are on the same vSwitch, with natachasery used by one and waiting for the other.

    iSCSI must be separated from its own vSwitch and pair of NICs as well supported by linked vmkernel ports for redundancy and load balancing.

    This leaves at least another vSwitch and pair of natachasery to the actual traffic of vm.

    Hello mnaveen.kumar,

    Search the registry to see if this key was created. Sometimes, the installation program does not have permission to this key.

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VMware, Inc.

    You can try to manually create the key to see if this will help.
