• Question about the balloon pilot

  Hello

  I have a question about the balloon pilot in ESX/ESXi 4.x. When the pilot is "inflated" the reason is to reveal to the ESX host memory of comments in fact is not used and that memory could be recovered by the host. However, the driver must be loaded all the time for this memory to be used by the host, as in giving him another VM?

  Or is it just inflate and deflate so and there is no need to stay charged?

  Once that memory has been retrieved the pilot deflates on its own.

• Basic questions about the storage on ESXi

  Hello

  We are about to implement a VMware ESXi environment and I would like to get some clarification on the storage in ESXi before proceeding.

  Material: 3 guests and HP EVA4000 FC 4 TB SAN.

  We execute the file, mail, web, directory, application and database servers.

  Some of these services require quick I/O and some require data to be 'seen' by at least 2 virtual servers for HA.

  Can I use discs RDM for HA/Clustering servers and for those who need quick I/O, or can I use VMDK:s?

  If I present to you the entire 4 TB SAN ESXi can I then several virtual servers use certain parts of this 4 TB SAN as discs RDM and other servers use certain parts of this SAN as VMDK:s? (Do we have virtual HBA:s in ESXi?)

  Thank you

  Yes. But you must consider as usual VMDK of hard drives in this case, you must install the cluster file system there.

• Question about the new facility ESXi 5

  Hi all

  Recently, I installed VMware vSphere with operations management on our server. I also registered this product and I get an email notification for 60 day trial.

  AFAIK the ESXi is a free version, what arrived on my virtual machine after the 60 day trial period?

  Do I have to install another version of ESXi?

  Thank you in advance,

  Kostas

  This is because your vCenter Operations Manager Suite series is not intended to an esxi host.

  The key you have done was proved for another product, the Operations Manager vCenter, who must be deployed as a virtual appliance on the esxi host.

  For the esxi host, you will need to register on the site I linked. You will then get a serial number for license free esxi, which is not an evaluation, so it will not be displayed under 'my assessments.

• Question about the upgrade to ESXi 4.1 and USB keys

  Right now I'm under ESXi 4.1 from a USB key (ie. a very small USB key).

  If I want to "start over" and use a newer USB for ESXi 5 but keep my intact, is guest operating systems - this possible?  (For example, if I install ESXi on a Virgin USB 5.0, will I be able to import my existing operating system vmx ESXi 4.1 images, etc.?)

  In addition, what's the downside of ESXi 5 running from a USB?  I spin this in a laboratory at the House and have read that ESXi basically load into memory if you really start player ESXi itself is useless and a USB key is perfectly fine.  Is this true?

  If you do not want re - configure ESXi 5.0, you can proceed as follows:

  1. Use free software, called "USB Image Tool 1.57" make a picture of your USB 4.1 - software available here http://www.alexpage.de/usb-image-tool/ .  This way you can restore it to any USB in the future.
  2. After making a backup of your USB 4.1 image, upgrade installation 4.1 to 5.0.
  3. Make a backup of your configuration of ESXi using the CLI vMA tool / vSphere in Windows with the following command: vicfg-cfgbackup-next - server
  4. The new installation of ESXi 5.0 on new USB
  5. VMA or vSphere CLI tool use in Windows with the following command to restore the backup from step 3 config: vicfg-cfgbackup-load - server
  6. You should now have ESXi 5.0 works on a new USB without any necessary configuration

  Alternatively, you can restore the image USB created in step 1 on your old USB in order to have a 4.1 installation handy...

  I recommend that make you a picture of your USB 5.0 USB as well just in case in the future USB fails.

• Question about the Admins of ESXi group

  I've been playing with the integration of ads today.

  I created a group of Admins ESX

  Added to some users

  Host added to AD

  Then I connected the Client vSphere directly to the host and the authentication of works fine, but

  When I click on users and anything associated to ESX Admins groups

  If I click on all groups that resides on the host and no mention of ESX Admins

  So, I'm checking in AD and watch from the directors of ESX being members of nothing.

  Any suggestions on where to find the Admins of ESX group so that I can set it to no access

  You will be able to select this group when you assign permissions to objects.

• Satellite L650-11R - a few questions about this

  Hello there :-)

  I have a few questions about my new L650.

  I've never had Toshiba notebook before so I apologize if some of these "quirks" are actually quite normal on this laptop. I really want to hear the views of other users L650.

  1)
  First of all, by the time I turned it on I saw gradient thin (1-2 mm) along the right edge of the screen that goes from the bottom up. Maybe "degraded" isn't the right word, but it seems that since two or three pixels are kind of discoloration or lose brightness/sharpness to the edge along the straight bezel. It is not really that visible, looks like the colors are desaturated a bit here or brightness is a bit lacking. He can be seen everywhere (bios or no color in Windows, but better in the lighter background).
  The left side (or other) seems ok, all this along the right edge is somewhat suspicious. If one can compare? I don't know if it's something to worry about or is just supposed to be like that.

  2)
  The other thing I noticed heating of the processor (Intel i3 330M) and GPU (ATi Mobility Radeon 5650). It's pretty hot here right now (I would say that the temperature is around 28 degrees Celsius when using cell phones). He is sitting on the hard surface (table) and nothing is blocking the vents.
  However, at "rest" (surf the web & regular light stuff), average CPU temp hovers around 58 ° C. It usually goes from 45 to 62 in just a few minutes after starting, and then I can hear and see (Toshiba PC Health Monitor) evacuate the kicks in. Temp goes back to 50 +, event stops and then the temp rises to 60 + until the vent is used again.
  During load full (Prime95 or some games), CPU is going all the way up to 75 degrees (the highest being 77). Fan runs at 75 to 77% during this time, never go faster.

  GPU idling is usually around 5 degrees above temp CPU (62-65). During full load (for example. Benchmark of Far Cry 2), I see a lot of stuttering with the latest drivers Catalyst and DX10 (not sure if the stuttering has something to do with heat), otherwise it is ok (no artifacts or anything like that). Temp of GPU during the loading goes up to 74-75, fan speed is locked at 30%, the frequency of the heart 5650 is 450 MHz. left side of the laptop (vent and below) is pretty hot, while the keyboard is warm (or slightly warmer who who).

  These time seems correct and safe in the long term? I'd rather events works all the time (they aren't really very strong) and keeping time less than 50, but there are just wishful pious bios control events and I can't control not the bios. :-)

  3)
  This is just General related products. :-)
  Official specifications of Toshiba L650 say ATi 5650 (between other low range GPU), but I saw a few specifications calling for there 5730 (same model 11R). Is there really a Satellite L650 with ATi 5730 GPU models?

  Sorry for the long post, I tried to include the best possible description that I could do. :-)

  Thank you in advance.

  Thanks for the additional info!

• Question about video drivers Satellite P100-257

  Hello.
  Question about video driver. Version 14.25... Works (tells... 945 GM chipset); 14.27--works but with ocassional problems (tells... 945GM/GU); version 14,29... (said 945GM/GU) - does not work at all - black screen, but you can hear sounds which tells that XP does all right.

  Why that? And what is GU? Pilot info says it is for 945GM, pilot says he's for 945GM/GU.

  All kinds of three said they are for Mobile Intel 945 GM Express chipset. Who initially my machine have said there. In section "video card" my machine said no Intel - some Calg... - don't remember exactly the name.
  Thank you very much.

  Hello

  As much as I know Satellite P100-257 supports the graphics card Mobile Intel 945GM. The code name of Intel's GM Calistoga
  This is not the same thing as the chipset Intel 945GM/GU. Both are different and so the graphics drivers are not totally compatible!

  The Intel page provides some interesting info on these chipsets:
  Mobile Intel Express Chipset 945GM

  Unfortunately, I have not found anything on the 945GM/GU.

• Ask questions about the functionality of EA8500 MU-MIMO

  Dear Linksys

  I bought EA8500, and it arrived today.

  I have two questions about the functionality of MU-MIMO of EA8500 AP.

  1. I want to compare the performance between SU-MIMO and MU-MIMO, but there is no option to control this feature in the router admin page. Is that one of the possible ways?

  2 EA8500 supports 1733 Mbps wireless speed, but it resembles the speed of 1 Gbps ethernet cable.

  This router supports really speed 1 Gbps ethernet? or y at - it an option to support more throughput as the aggregation of links?

  Thank you

  Hi, hyeonu. For your first query, it is not possible because there is no option to disable the feature of MU-MIMO on your Linksys EA8500 router. In addition, with regard to your second, you can get a higher throughput of 1 Gbps since this is the maximum capacity of your ethernet connection.

• Question about Dell OEM: SLP Windows 7 Installation disk domestic; can it be installed and activated on other computers from Dell?

  I bought a Dell installation disk and I want to use it to install a better version of Windows on my Dell PC. I have windows Vista and I want to use it to update my OS Windows7 Home Premium. However, the license type is SLP:OEM and no detail... not sure what SLP: OEM means... I thought that the OS discs are the same. Someone told me no retail editions are not suitable for a new OS, but I'm confused. The disc says, Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit, but didn't holograms who have all MS OS disks and the disk is labeled for use with a Dell system only, if the means it will work very well on my Dell PC? The label does not which brand or model this disc is for, but said only for the Dell PC which is my PC. I'm assuming, the disk won't work on all Dells, maybe someone can offer suggestions, any help is much appreciated. Thank you!

  I have a few other questions about Windows 7, can I ask you about this on your Web site? Do not know how to contact you on your website. I can see other people responding to your articles, but that's all. I thought that maybe their might be a forum to post a question... Thank you for everything.

  You can comment on my site but comments will be public and it is easier to answer questions in the forums.

  If you want to be more precise, you can post in the Dell Community Forums. :

  There are also ways to private message me there is something I don't think that can be done by non-moderateurs on Microsoft Answers. However, I prefer answering questions on the forum:

• Upgrade to ESXi on NGC

  Hello

  I have esxi4.1 installed on a few servers B200 M2, esxi has been installed with the cisco-ucs-esxi image.

  the question is I want to upgrade to esxi5, what image should I use now? the normal esxi5 of vmware or cisco-UCS-esxi5 image?

  IM upgrading to the formware ucs of 1.4 to 2.0 before that.

  I loaded about 100 B200s with ESXi 5 and never used the standard ISO VMware. The B200s were VIC M81KR adapters.

  To update to 4.1 I did only reconstructions. Many of them had the N1KV VEM and PowerPath VE so I thought it was the safest route.

• Three questions about the version of the hardware and VM tools

  Hello

  I have 3 questions about equipment and tools of VM version, can someone help? Thank you in advance.

  1. is the machine hardware version virtual file OVF/EGGS associated with?  OVF/EGGS exported vSphere files contain the virtual hardware version information?

  2. review I have a VM in vSphere 6.0 platform with version 11 of hardware and the latest Tools (cam with ESXi 6.0 U2) VM, I can export to an EGG file, then import it on vSphere 5.1 platform? If can, what version of the target material is VM?

  3. can you vmtools high version with lower vSphere platform? For example, I have a virtual machine with version 11 of material and tools the latest VM (ESXi 6 U2), later I move the 5.1 ESXi virtual computer, should I go down the vmware tools? Is there a compatibility issue?

  Hello

  1. Yes, if you unzip the eggs and open the FVO in an editor you see:

  Family of virtual hardware

  0

  VMX-08

  2. you can not. Vmware 11 material is not supported by 5.1.

  3 didn't cause you cannot import vmware 11 and 5.1. Works may be more high vmtools as long as you keep the material support for 5.1 version.

• Can question about a possible question, I do it my way?  The end result really me the measure of success?

  I have a question about a theoretical question of the VCAP (specifically the example below).  I could do it is a flash by going directly to the host instead of using the stinking vMA and resxtop, I've always will mark the full points by my way?

  "

  Scenario 11

  < Return | Next >

  Scenario:

  On a specific host of ESXi, a set of virtual machines is not good. You intend to determine the root cause. To do this, you want to collect usage data of resources at a level more granular than vSphere Client performance graphs can provide.

  Requirements:

  • Use resxtop to collect all the statistics for 2 minutes every 3 seconds.
  • Export the data to a CSV file called results.csv.
  • Import the results.csv file in the Windows performance monitor.
  • Use Windows performance monitor to indicate the time of CPU ready for all the virtual machines on the 2 minute period.

  Environmental information:

  • ESXi host: Home - 01.lab.local

  VDCA550 goal: 4.1 use Advanced vSphere Performance Monitoring Tools

  Guide reference (s):

  I'm under the impression that it was some sort of bug, fixed now, thanks to you guys useful...

  urgent vMA, would appreciate your help VCAP is tomorrow.

• General question about the updates and version number

  I have a general question about versions and update.  I'm new on this and am in the deep end of learning I want.

  In vSphere web client, I see the following versions (these are exactly as the seller, he left a few months that I have screenshots in my documentation that match)

  Version - VMware ESXi, 5.1.0 1612806

  Profile - Dell (updated) ESXi - 5.1 - 799733 (A00)

  I am trying to familiarize themselves with the Update Manager and I noticed that there are a lot of patches and updates available.

  Lists of Update Manager 5 patches as "Missing" with Red x but directly above them are a list of patches with green tick indicating that "installed" - it is perhaps obvious, but im guessing 'installed' means really installed when displayed on the screen - there is an update installed, labeled "ESXI 5.1 all the update 2-' would be able to tell that it has been installed by the details of profile/version above?

  I don't think it's a big deal at this stage, but if I install all missing patches and then the details of the version/profile change in summary screen?

  I hope this makes sense.

  Thank you

• Questions about maintenance mode

  I have some curious (probably dumb) questions on the service mode (esxi worm 51).

  • What is exactly?
  • What happens if you run the patch similar to ' esxcli software vib /vmfs/volumes/datastore/patch_zipfile.zip d install "without putting it in maintenance mode?
  • What happens if you put maintainece mode, install the patch, and then out of maintenance mode before restart? The reason behind this is so that the virtual machines will autostart.

  These are just curious of rhetorical questions.

  Thank you!

  Arch

  All the maintenance mode has really is sure no VMs are running. In an environment of DRS, VM will migrate automatically away, basically saying maintenance mode "do not put a machine virtual here, is about to have some work." Without the DRS maintenance mode will fail and advise you to move the virtual machines yourself.

  Some patches require no maintenance mode and install fine. Those who demand the it will error and refused to apply without maintenance mode.

  In the third scenario, the machines will be autostart
