• Reference Dell EqualLogic 6010 initial configuration

  Hello. I have a dust collection Dell EqualLogic 6010 in my test harness. He was sent by another office, for reasons unknown. I would use this feature to unload a few backup copies of vm in the development of our san to this device of 16 smaller disk.  I only have one switch that comes with it, but for its intended use, this should be good. I only will link a physical server to it where my backup software. (I wish I could just direct connect, but I read that it is not possible, or at least not recommended) The problem is... I don't know where to start.

  I tried to put in place of guides, manuals and Setup guides, but the single pdf I find is more on limits, best practices, what he can do, etc., rather than from step 1. (like, indications which include the implementation of rails and all that usually skip us... lol) Can anyone help with a quick course guide or accident? Maybe point me in the direction of certain documents?

  For example... series in I do? If so, what are the default creds? There may be a default ip address that I can connect my laptop in to start the initial game up? Or y at - it a config that I can run on the same subnet as EMC VNX implemented who will find unconfigured devices? I really can't find any of this set up information of this device. I hope someone can help.

  Thank you very much. :)

  Hello

  You have a username on the EQL support site?   The documentation is a quick installation guide.

  1.), you can use the serial port.  9600,8, n, 1 NO flowcontrol.   (Series cisco cables do not work)   Grpadmin default login, password grpadmin. (assuming that it has not already been implemented)

  2.) If you have an EQL support account, you can also download the HIT for Windows or Linux.   Who has the Remote Installation Wizard software.  Who will scan the local subnet for the not configured matrices.  Then allow you to configure it through the user interface.

  Re: switches.  You need a 10GbE switch.  The 6010 will not negotiate until 1GbE.

  Kind regards

• Reference Dell EqualLogic Multipath (e/s high flow)

  We recently bought a Dell EqualLogic SAN. Our main goal for this device was to begin to use pools of resources and be able to do a few HA and Live migration. We have worked with XenServer and Xen Cloud for a while and got no e/s on iScsi performance we were hoping for. With the help of Multipath on the main host machine we get on 250 Mbps (which we are satisfied). On the guest computers, we get only 120 Mbps.

  My question to the community of VMWare; If we wanted to use products VMWare is the possibility to get more then 1 Gbps i/o throughput on a guest PC? And if so, if it is a PDF or a post somewhere that could explain how to do this?

  Let me know, thanks!

  The doc of the correct configuration is attached... hope that her little help. In my view, it is also sub TR docs when you save your table PS.

• Reference Dell Equallogic Interface errors

  Hi guys, I got a big problem here in my room. My equallogic iscsi interfaces have a lot of erros. What can be?

  

  First of all, make sure you run the latest version of FW and SANHQ table.

  Packet errors are often the cause of bad cable, bad switch ports and a misconfiguration on switch iSCSI ports.   The only way to erase the mistakes of packages on Equallogic arrays must restart the table.

  • Replacement cable between the controller port and switch port with known good cable.

  • 10 GB cables must be SFF-8472 compliant to work with 10 GB Equallogic arrays.

  • Confirm that the switch is a minimum firmware to work with Berry Equallogic en.community.dell.com/.../2661.equallogic-compatibility-matrix

  (Note: if unable to switch, you can disable protocols spanning tree on ports connect to the table).

  • Use the tech TR1017 report to verify the configuration of the switch and confirm it meets best practices.

  • Run a show of support on the switches to review port errors.   If a Powerconnect or Force10 switch then engage networks dell help examine the switch logs. If another provider, and then engage the seller to switch to help examine the switch logs.

  • Cards network host to firmware update and the latest network card driver

  • The direct link to TR1017:

  Media.Community.Dell.com/.../tr1017-v4-Network-Guidelines.pdf

  If the host Linux with Multipath.d, you may need to modify the multipath.conf file to include: tur path_checker in the devices section.

• Reference Dell EqualLogic HIT/VSM - VMware license terms.

  Hello.

  I read the release notes of Virtual Storage Manager 4.0, vSphere, conditions of licence, they are required:

  License terms for vSphere
  VSM comes with licenses and the following features:

  VSM: VSphere license any

  VASA: vCenter 5.0 or later version, ESXi 4.0 or later, any vSphere license
  In addition, the storage array firmware allows use the following features that VSM is installed:

  vStorage API for integration (VAAI) table: business, Enterprise Plus on ESXi license
  4.1 or later.

  Issues related to the:

  1. I'll be able to run VSM with vSphere Essentials Plus? VAAI at least requires vSphere Enterprise License. What are the consequences if I deploy with vSphere Essentials Plus.

  2 VSM supports ESXi 5.5 U2?

  Thank you

  Paul

  VASA is a feature you don't need basic VSM features.  Which is what the release notes are trying to say.   VASA allows VMware request more information on storage volumes.   I.e. through VASA VCS calls can show that a volume is RAIDed storage, integrates snapshots or replicas.   Currently, the usefulness of the VASA is limited, even when it is available.   VASA is the first step to VMware to better understand a storage array capabilities. More features will be coming in future versions of ESXi.

  However, to make the VASA work any, the storage provider must provide software 'glue' for specific HW calls of a query of VCS.   VSM, is what has the code, known as a "provider of VASA.   A translator of sorts.

• Dell Equallogic PS5000X NIC reference

  Hello

  does anyone have experience of SAN Dell Equallogic PS5000X?  I'll put in place at the moment and it seems there are 2 controllers for all of the 3 NIC (6 in total).  I find I cannot use 3 cards and 1 controller in Active mode and can not find a way to get the two controllers to work in unison and the two assets.

  I wanted to use 4 network cards for iSCSI traffic on a VLAN giving a rate 4 GB of storage but you can use 2 network cards, giving a throughput of 2 GB and 1 for management.

  Is this the only method available for this type of SAN?

  Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

  Andy

  Hey,.

  The PS is an active / standby. A controller is active. The other will be the shot if the first of all a problem. You have only a configuration to do.

  You configure 3 interfaces in the GUI. eth0, 1, 2.

  The second controller will use this interface when you need.

  You can dedicate a management port, but Dell recommends that you connect all of your ports to the ISCSI network.

  Hope this helps

  Any thing that has missed out in the configuration part / all bad entries. I'm not sure now how to treat this. Pls help me and it is an urgent task for me

  Thank you

  With multiple VLANs, you need to use the general/Trunk mode. With the help of the info we have I made a diagram to help show the location of the switches and parameters on them. Obviously things can be different, such as PVID, IP address, VLAN ID etc are all customizable to your needs. But the page layout modes and the port will remain the same.

  

  STP will not fill the VLAN on the other switches. It's probably the GVRP feature it refers. With such a short race, it is more practical to manually add the VLAN. At least for the initial Setup, then once everything works enable GVRP to accommodate future expansion of VLAN.

  Hope this helps some.

• Get-QADComputer fails if run PowerShell script through Orchestrator workflow

  I use the "Get-QADComputer" cmdlet in my .ps1 script that is supposed to run via Orchestrator.  I have several PowerShell scripts started by Orchestrator and run on a host windows without any problem.  For this script, I have these 2 commands and still error.  The script does not error when run locally.

  Add-PSSnapin Quest.ActiveRoles.ADManagement - ErrorAction SilentlyContinue

  $Computer = get-QADComputer-identity "server01" | where {$_.name - eq "server01"}

  In troubleshooting, I ran Get-PSSnapin and can see that the snap for AD is loaded successfully.  I tried Connect-QADService and who also gives the same error, although it works very well on place.

  I use vCO 5.1.1. device.   On the hosts Windows where are the scripts PowerShell, the AD snap is version 1.6.0.2683.

  Here is the error in the logs Orchestrator...

  (Name of the dynamic Script Module: invokeScript #14)

  Thanks for the info.  I use the workflow "Invoke an external script" to run many of my host admin PowerShell scripts.  It is easier for me to keep all .ps1 files in one place and not import them into Orchestrator.  The article prompted me to switch my connection to host basic Powershell to Kerberos.  To do this, I had to update /etc/krb5.conf on the device of the vCO.  I've referenced VMware KB2036986 to work around the problem "unable to get kdc for the Kingdom.  This issue was mainly because we couldn't have krb5 configured previously.

  Now, I got a different error during execution of the workflow after bouncing vCO.

  System.NullReferenceException: Object Reference not set to an instance of an object.

  Has pointed out me the need to first make the connection AD.  He has not worked before without Kerberos authentication.  Once I added these lines of code, Get-QADComputer finally worked without error!   Thanks for the help.

• Such a powershell script exist?

  Windows Server Standard 2012R2. I know not enough about powershell scripts to be dangerous. So I guess that its better to ask for help on this one. As you know, in the Windows backup program, the e-mail feature is depreciated on server 2012. However, I had no problem of customization of a powershell script that I found so that it sends an email when the nightly backup is completed successfully. Te was easy to do. In Manager tasks I just put the firing an event, with the event being backup Windows and a number of event 4 - which means backup completed successfully. In fact, it works very well for my clients.  But it is not the fault of my client. (of course!)

  Customers only the desire to receive an email if the backup is not successful. But the reasons for a backup failed are many which can generate any number of errors in the event log. Since I'm just not knowledgeable of powershell scripts, I hope someone can help me here, or at least direct me to where I can get help. Basically, I need a script powershell like this:

  Trigger is "the eventID 14 (completed backup operation).

  If eventID in the Microsoft-Windows-backup/OPerational log prior to the triggering event is not 4, while sendmail

  This above would of course, include my work already sendmail script. Is this possible? Maybe someone has already done? Any help would be appreciated.
