• Question about vMotion unable to migrate due to the incompatibility of SSE4.1

  Hi all

  We bought another HP BL480c G1 and he joined our cluster, running ESX Server 3.5 U3. First of all and then I realized that our supplier has sent a version with a Xeon E5440. Other guests also BL480c G1, uses slightly older Xeon E5345, which is apparently a difference family produced minor.

  This genereates following error message when you try to vMotion:

  "Impossible to migrate from esx1 to esx4. Host CPU is incomatible to the requirements of the virtual machine to CPUID level 0 x 1 'ecx' register .... Inconsistency detected for these characteristics: * SSE4.1. see the article 1993 for a possible solution.

  I tested a substitution of mask of vMotion (according to KB1993) on a test server and vMotion then works as expected. The substitution of masks is of course supported nor recommended because it can cause instability with vMotion.

  Someone at - he found a solution support around this issue? Or has anyone ever encountered problems with the substitution?

  I found nothing in the BIOS to disable SSE4.1.

  Please post your solutions, workarounds and experiences.

  Thank you

  Hi Bjorn,

  It's good to know that the E5345 comes with FlexMigration, Intel you need to update their documentation.

  If I understand correctly FlexMotion is supported by VMware for 3.5 Update 2:

  _______________________________________

  Best compatibility - VMotion Simplifies VMotion compatibility through the generations of CPU issues. Improved compatibility VMotion (CVS) automatically configure the processors in the server with Intel FlexMigration or AMD - V extended Migration technologies to be compatible with the old servers. After that EVC is enabled for a cluster in the VirtualCenter inventory, all the hosts in this cluster are configured to ensure compatibility of the CPU for VMotion. VirtualCenter does not allow the addition of hosts that cannot be automatically configured to be compatible with those already in the EVC cluster.

  _____________________________________________________

  recommended is another story, I think VMware are constantly updating their software to include a wider range of supported hardware, but in an ideal world, we should try and keep the material the same to ensure 100% compatibility.

• question of vMotion iSCSI and jumbo frames

  Hello

  I have a cluster ESXi 4.1 using vCenter and a SAN MD3200i.  I'll do an upgrade to optimize the installation, which includes the installation of four NIC ports in hosts that will be used for iSCSI.  I struggle to enable frames or not, but if I do, I just want to do for the iSCSI, at least for now.  Currently, the maps iSCSI network on the hosts and the MD3200 iSCSI connections are connected to two switches separated, although I have seven other switches in the building connected to the PC, printers, etc.  What I only turn frames on two switches that iSCSI is connected, or do I have to enable frames on all my switches?  There is a Dell 2724 and eight 6224Ps of Dell.  ISCSI is connected to the 2724 and one from the 6224Ps.

  The two switches that are connected to the iSCSI ports are not dedicated iSCSI switches; they have other devices on them, but I can only enable the frames extended globally on the switch.  Would there be any problem allowing the frames extended on the switches, otherwise all connected devices are configured for them?

  Another question about vMotion: I will create four ports on each host for iSCSI vmkernel.  Currently, there is also a port configuration vmkernel for traffic management and vMotion.  Is it possible to set up each of the four iSCSI for vMotion vmkernel channels, or should I leave it configured on the port of vmkernel management?

  Thank you!

  Sure. If you're going to enable Jumbo frames, you need to have dedicated switches for that, or a switch that may have different units MTU on their ports.

• Questions about the implementation of clusters of storage and DTS on active cluster

  I have a few questions about the implementation of clusters of data store and SRS storage in VSphere 5.1.

  We have a data center with about 15 HP blades and a few servers non-lame.  The hosts are all either VSphere 5.0 or 5.1.  Our back-end storage is an EMC VNX 5700 with about 20 stores of data.  All the VMWare is managed by VCenter 5.1 running on a dedicated physical machine.

  Currently, each data store is used individually; No piles of data store are put in place.  When a new virtual machine is created, the administrator usually chooses the data with the most space store.  Periodically, we will go back and manually storage vMotion machines to balance the load.

  Recently, we have expanded the VNX storage, so we now have LUNS in different pools, with different levels of performance.

  What I would do is set up for the data store clusters, so that us when a virtual machine is created, the administrator must not know what data store is in which pool.  Also take advantage of the DRS storage so that the burden of storage will be "refine" himself a little.

  I know the setting up of a cluster of storage in a 'clean' environment is quite simple, but my concern is creation/conversion data warehouses existing in active production in the cluster, while they are used.

  If I access the screen "data warehouses and store data from clusters ', right-click on the data center and create a cluster, and then move the various data stores in the new cluster, will there be an interruption in the production running systems?

  I also wonder about activation of storage i/o control.  It is not currently enabled on data warehouses.  I know it's useful for the StorageDRS, but will be allowing any negative impact on the system?  If I turn on the warehouses of data, is there anything else I should do or set in addition to all that allows him?

  Finally, we are in the process of Site Recovery Manager configuration.  SRS has an impact on the configuration of the data clusters and DTS store?

  Thanks in advance for your comments.

  Hello

  Clusters of data and using DTS store doesn't impact RS even if you create a cluster of data store for storage of replicated data and another for everyone else, this way you machines virtual you want to replicate are not moved on warehouses of data that are not replicated , but will still have the ability to move if there is a conflict.

  Gregg

  With all due respect but SRM and DTS don't go together. SRM does not at all support the use of DTS. So if you are configuring SRM forget DTS for now.

  Reason for this is that SRM knows no DTS and VMs can be in flight when a failover should occur, and bad things can happen. Also, the protection breaks when a virtual computer is moved between data warehouses in a cluster data store.

  In short: don't go there.

• Questions about vmware high availability

  Dear all,

  I am new in this area, we intend to deploy vmware 5 in our environment by using the HA, I am a student in this regard. I have a few questions about this, I need assistance by experts in this field:

  -J' read the vmware network redundancy is strongly recommended for the configuration of vmware HA, but I haven't fully?

  -When vmware HA is configured and there are two hosts in the cluster, now when creating a new machine virtual, I need to specify under which host this new virtual machine must reside OR the HA feature will automatically decide on that?

  -When vmware HA is set up and I have two hosts in cluster, a host processors 4physical and 8 GB of RAM, the other host is also even have 4 physical processors and 8 GB of RAM, so for me which are the sets of resources will be presented? I will be display individually for each host resources when you create a new virtual machine, OR I will be presented with a SUM of resources 1 + 2 host resources to play?

  -Is it possible that I assigned 4 vCPU virtual machine and 4 GB Mem and it uses little resources from host 1 and few resources to host 2, as 2 vCPU to host 1 and 2 GB and still host 2vCPU 2 and remains 2GB (given that I am presented with the SUM of the cluster as mentioned in my second question resources)

  -J' read operating system failure when in vmHA particular VM will be restarted on the same host it resides, that means? If the BONE broke down, then when new virtual machine starts, it will be also having fallen copy of OS? I mean how this new machine will be launched, it's a copy identical secondary virtual machine crashed?

  Waiting for your help.

  Kind regards
  Jocelyn

  OK, consider cases that I am only using HA and no DRS, in this case I need to specify under what host to run VM?

  I read the first question again, then please, let me make this clear. When you create a new virtual machine, you must always specify a host and storage.

  Initial investment (when you are powering on a virtual machine) is a feature of the Drs without DRS a virtual machine can only be migrated to another host manually or with the virtual machine shut down (cold migration) or using vMotion (if allowed).

  But because of an event leading to the crash of the OS reboot also not solve the problem, correct me if I understood? This is also true for FT?

  You're right, HA can restart only a virtual machine. If there is a serious issue that causes the BONE invited to plant that regularly, this is not enough and you have to solve the problem manually. FT cannot resolve as she makes it "mirrors" the guest to another host, so it will also reflect a BSOD.

  Yes, FT has still some limitations. However, there are use cases where availability is important and FT is designed to ensure continuous availability in the event of a crash the host.

• Many questions about the HP 50 g

  I just ordered a HP 50 g graphic calculator! I have a few questions about this so hang on tight! What is the USB connector on the calculator? Mini-USB, micro USB, or is it a connector owner, "custom". Then, it would be possible to connect a keyboard to the HP 50 g by using the USB Port? Is there a program that would make this possible? (I doubt it would work if you plug it..) I have a Mini-USB to female USB 2.0 connector. So I could just plug the keyboard right, provided that the port on the calculator is a Mini-USB Port. If this is not so that I could use my female to female USB adaptor to connect the keyboard.

  Thanks for your help,

• Question about warranty after exchanges of RAM on Satellite module series

  Hello together,

  I have a question about the warranty. My laptop is 5 months old and now I want to improve it with more RAM. I want to do it myself, and now I'm wondering if the warranty will be getting hurt.
  Thanks in advance for your answers.

  Concerning

  TiG3r

  For new models of laptops the RAM upgrade described in s operating manuals. It is public act and it shows the owner of the notebook how do RAM upgrade only.

  If Toshiba offers something like this he won't have the negative influence of valid warranty.
  Buy a compatible module and RAM upgrade.

  Bye and good luck!

• A few quick questions about the Satellite P300 - 18 M

  Hello

  I am about to order a Satellite P300 - 18 M and have just a few questions about this:

  (Although these may apply for other similar Satellite/Equium P300.)

  Is the touchpad made by / to use the Alps or Synaptics driver?

  It has the Wireless N network card, is the map made by Intel or Realtec?

  And also, someone has experience with face recognition software to connect?

  If so, does it take a lot of time to initalise?

  Thanks in advance,
  Jack

  Hello

  The P300 - 18M belongs to the PSPCCE series.
  It uses the two touchpad drivers. Synaptics & Alps Electric
  There is an Intel 802.11agn minicards WLan installed

  The face recognition is a nice tool but local to be illuminated and you must take your face the right of the post sometimes it of not very easy

  But if you face is recognized correctly that the connection should work properly

  See you soon

• A few questions about the difference between the Satellite P70, L70, S70

  Hello, I have a lot of questions about the P70, L70, S70 series that come with a 1920 x 1080 panel.

  (1) what are the differences between the L70 and S70 series? With the exception of the RAM and HARD drive capacity, books seem pretty identical.

  (2) P70, L70, S70 doesn't support a 2nd HARD drive or it's just the P70 series that support?

  (3) all the three (P70, L70, S70 series) come with the same TFT panels?

  (4) of the above series, which supports mSata?

  (5) all the model of each series are delivered with support from mSata? For example, it could be that L70 - a - 13 m supports mSata is not the case of the L70-a-146?

  (6) all the foregoing, are delivered with a S - ATA II or III S - ATA interface?

  (7) who is the best of these series listed? I'm trying to understand what makes the big difference of S70 to P70 except for the envelope for example.

  Thank you in advance.

  > (1) what are the differences between the series L70 and S70? With the exception of the RAM and HARD drive capacity, books seem pretty identical.

  What models Sat L70 and S70 do you mean exactly? There are different L70-xxx-xxx and S70 models on the market that supports different hardware specifications.

  (> S70 2) P70, L70, support a 2nd drive HARD or is - it just the series P70 that support?
  As you can see in this [Sam P70 HDD replacement document, | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/CRU3903II0000R01.htm] the P70 series supports the 2nd drive Bay HARD, BUT even if there is a 2nd HARD drive Bay, this does not mean that you can use the 2nd HARD drive. In the case where the 2nd HARD drive Bay are equipped with HARD drive connector, you can use the 2nd HARD drive

  I also found the [Sam L70/S70 HDD replacement | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/CRU3703HG0000R01.htm] the document on the Toshiba page and there I see this 2nd HARD drive Bay is not available

  (> 3) all three (P70, L70, S70 series) come with the same TFT panels?
  See point 1). Different P70, L70, S70 models were equipped with different material parts.

  (> 4) of the series above, which takes in charge mSata?
  As far as I know that some P70 models are equipped with an mSATA SSD of 256 GB.

  (> 5) do all the model of each series are delivered with support mSata? For example, it could be that L70 - a - 13 m supports mSata is not the case of the L70-a-146?
  See point 4) not all models supports the same hardware specifications

  (> 6) all of the above, come with a S - ATA II or III S - ATA interface?
  I don t think that SATA III is supported. I guess it would be SATA II

  (> 7) which is the best of these series listed? I'm trying to understand what makes the big difference of S70 to P70 except for the envelope for example.
  Not easy to answer because there are too many models released in Europea.
  And not all models are available in each country. So I guess you will have to look for the models that have been released in your country.

• 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!
