  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.

• Reference Dell backup and restore is unable to create a DVD of recovery on Windows 8

  Dear Dell,

  I am creating recovery discs "Dell backup and Recovery application" but when I was asked to insert the second DVD, the optical drive keeps rejecting DVD. The application will not continue to burn the second DVD and seems to be frozen. I tyied with different DVD brands/manufacturers and also-/ + r unfortunately. The question remains. I could find this 593906 article published 21-01 - 2013 (http://support.dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/kcs/document?c=us&cs=19&docid=593906&doclang=en&l=en&s=dhs link). Although I did the updates, I'm still not able to create recovery discs!   File: after having inserted the Disc 3 application gives the message "Dbr.exe-" not found disk and stays there and rejects the DVD.  I spoke with the Greek team of Dell. I was told that warranty does not cover the support of sw even if my unit is less than a week. Furthermore, I learned that although "Dell backup and restore" application said THAT DELL is not actually a Dell product so they can't support. They my proposed to use the recovery of files from windows 7 place (which needs at least 8 DVD!). As you can understand it's a workaround and not a Solution.

  I hope that someone from Dell will consider the issue and to come back with a precise answer and a permanent solution.   (Model: inspiron 15 3521). Thank you

  Hi ylikonomos,

  You can try to uninstall and reinstall Dell Backup and Recovery Manager and Dell Support Center. Follow these steps:

  • Press the Windows key + 'X' on the keyboard.
  • Select "Programs and features" in the context menu that appears in the lower left corner.

  

  • In the list of applications, uninstall Dell Backup and Recovery Manager and Dell Support Center.

  Below, check the version of the BIOS installed on the laptop. Press Windows + "R" key, type msinfo32 and press ENTER.

  

  

  Identify the version of the BIOS. If A04, the update of the BIOS is not necessary. If this isn't the case, update the BIOS. Before flashing the BIOS please check this following:
  * No external device (printer, USB stick, SD card, DVD) must be connected.
  * All other programs should be closed and saved documents.
  * The power adapter and the battery must be connected during this process. The battery must be 10% or more than 10% of charge.

  Here is the link for the update to the BIOS: http://dell.to/VBwSAh. The laptop restarts after this update.

  Visit this link: http://dell.to/VBz1fr and click Dell Support Center. Download and install the application.
  Once done, visit this link: http://bit.ly/UUjIs0 and install Dell Backup and Recovery Manager. Restart the computer and check if you are able to create the recovery media.

• Reference Dell backup and restore - "an error occurred during the creation of the backup of the system"

  I have a Dell XPS-8700 running Windows 7.  I bought the Dell Backup and Recovery Premium Edition.

  I was able to create a backup bootable (hot spare), and I can create a backup of data on my external hard drive.  However, whenever I try to create a backup on my external hard drive system, after about three seconds in the process, he returned: "an error occurred during the creation of the backup of the system.

  How can I create a backup of the system?  Why I get this error?

  Thanks for all the info. My situation sounds very similar to yours.

  I removed using Add/REMOVE programs in the control panel DBR and he removed cleanly.

  V1.7.1.2 downloaded and executed new facility.

  When I ran, it was my premium license key so he had yet to register and was not removed by uninstall.

  As before, Rescue Disk ran and installed the new partition (DBR_BOOT) on WD Passport.

  However, backup system immediately stopped with disconnected, missing target location or full. Tried several times...

  In any case, sounds like you have solved your problem, so you like OP should this brand this post/thread as answered. I will continue to post on my other thread.

• Reference Dell backup and restore: "merge system backups?

• Reference Dell backup and restore (Premium Edition) 1.7.5.63

  Since upgrading my software Dell backup and restore to version 1.7.5.63, I now have problems to make it past the "Dell backup and recovery Please Wait" screen.

  I'm not leaving this option to run for more than 8 hours, but found that this process is not always successful. The only way I could find to block this process to run is to click on the? at the top right of the screen, then select "activity log". At this time, I clicked on the home button to take back me to the Dell Backup and Recovery Premium Edition home page and close the application. However, when I tried to re - open the application again, it brings back me to the screen "Dell backup and recovery Please Wait".

  To solve this problem, I tried to restore from a previous backup I made of the Dell Backup and Recovery application but it failed miserably and corrupted my hard drive and operating system (Windows 8.1). So the only way I could get back to who had to go back to my backup bootable disks that I created when I arrived to my laptop Dell Latitude E6530.

  Then I had re-installed all the 100 + updates of Windows for upgrade to Windows Pro 8.1 by the Windows store. From there, I upgraded my software "Dell backup and restore (Premium Edition)" at 1.7.5.63 and had the same problem again.

  In any case to have a fix for this or tell me how I can raise an incident with Dell, because this is so ignorant and frustrating.

  If I uninstall my Dell Backup and recovery software (Premium Edition) and reinstall the version found in http://www.dellbackupandrecovery.com/en-us/Index.html , but the last time I did, it installed the basic edition and not the Premium edition.

  All right enough the last time I had problems with my Dell backup and recovery (Premium Edition) software, it seems to settle on the other updated after a few months, but I don't don't want really to go back to an earlier backup with an older version of the recovery (Premium Edition) software and backup Dell.

  Any help or advice, you would be extremely grateful.

  I'm shocked that Dell is detrimental to Windows backup in Windows 7 Professional.  Your comments here persuade me not to pay for the premium edition.  Various people on other internet research said Dell had a great program backup, 6 months ago, but weakened while it is able to sell a version Premium, also hobble the program backup Windows.  You might try a free backup software like Comodo as I suspect that you can not use the Windows backup which makes a backup with files image.  It was a very simple approach that Dell seems to have stuck in their new versions of Windows 7 Professional.  I restarted my computer because of this kind of game.  Since I bought it at Costco, I have 90 days to return it.  I also started watching a series of online backups.  Carbonite seems terribly clutter my computer, and while highly recommended, it is slow, slow, slow.  I am CrashPlan that seems to work much much much faster.  Both of these are paid services.  CrashPlan has a lot of versatility to accommodate beginners to evolve into something much more powerful.  They have free versions for recording to hard drives and other computers.  The online version has Unlimited storage, much versatility, without the limits other plans have, and it's only 4-6 dollars per month, depending on the current sales and payment terms.

• Dell M620 (VRTX) blade - ESXi 5.1.0 Update 1 installation upgrade to ESXi 5.1.0 Update 3 (latest)

  This morning I did an installation of upgrade to ESXi 5.1.0 Update 1 to ESXi 5.1.0 Update 3 (latest Version) on one of the blades of my VRTX M620 three 3.  I have the same problem that I met about a year, when I tried to update 1-2 update.  I had to go down to 1 update to see the data store.

  With update 3, the data store does not appear on this blade.  I did a scan to see if the data store is present, but he did not.  Also, I restarted the blade which did not help.

  I have to keep upgrading to 3 update due to the necessary correction of problem CBT.

  How to troubleshoot and resolve this problem of my data store does not?

  Note: I have very little experience with virtualization.  I just found today on how to access the interface from the CLI of blades.

  Thanks in advance.

  SOLVED.

  The original sas megaraid drivers (even installed on the blades of M620 Dell) had to be installed.  It is my understanding that several versions of the megaraid sas driver provided on the Dell ESXi ISO are meant to satisfy the VMware HCL for this material.  However, the more recent does not show the data store.

• Reference Dell customized version of ESXi 5.5

  I just bought a Dell PowerEdge T320 for a virtualization host laboratory and installed custom Dells 5.5 ESXi hypervisor leave (dell.com) on the bare metal.  My question is did anyone know how this license since it has not been downloaded from the vmware.com website?

  Can I go out with ESXi installation directly from vmware and more later manually installed drivers for compatibility with the Dell hardware?

  Thank you!

  Reference custom Dell uses 5.5 ISO ESXi a normal VMware ESXi key provided by VMware license.  A normal installation of ESXi 5.5 it's already contains Dell drivers if you don't have to worry to inject drivers later, etc.

• Reference DELL 1850 and the HA agent configuration problems

  Hello

  I have a problem with DELL 1850 server while moving it to a cluster use HA. On the other DELL 2950 Server I worked well and I can move it to the cluster without problems and enable HA. I have 2 x 1850 and on two of them, I get the same following problem:

  18502.vividsky.local HA configuration

  Cannot complete the configuration of the HA agent on the host. Another HA configuration error.

  I made this establishment a few times using esxi in vmware workstation and used vmotion on it without any problem.

  I don't know if that is a problem because of the CPU as the 1850 uses a Pentium 4 XEON and the 2950 a Quad core (coreduo) Xeon. On the vmware workstation it worked well because I use a processor core 2 duo as well. Is this because VT? they are capable of 64-bit P4 Xeons is not VT

  in the 1850s, I have fiber connected to a SAN network cards, but I removed the warehouses of data from it as I myself suspect this could have an impact on HA configuration, but as you expected, it did not help :/

  You guys have no idea what I can do?

  Can you send me the tarred contents of the directory/var/log/vmware to host?

  The compatibility of the processor is not the problem. The two hosts are able to communicate on port groups 'management' common?

• Live iSCSI SAN upgrade production network (Dell MD3000i and PowerConnect & ESXi 4)

  Hi all

  For the moment, I have a direct connection to my Dell MD3000i iSCSI SAN in ESXi 4 2 x host with no switch between the two, all of the virtual machine is within the SAN and running on both hosts.

  If I want to put a switch between the two and add one more iSCSI SAN so that the two SAN can be accessed / shared with the 3 ESXi 4 guests total, how should I approach the issue?

  any idea or guideline would be greatly appreciated.

  What I have to plan the time or can I change the old IP on the existing SAN iSCSI manually cable one by one without damage/alter the existing operation of the virtual machine on SAN? or I have to stop the virtual machine and then terminate the connection manually iSCSI session and then restart the host SAN?

  Thank you

  AWT

  Standard installation on the MD3000i is for a port iSCSI on each controller on a subnet and one on each controller to be on another.

  There have been people working successfully on a subnet, reported problems too.   I wish we were longer on our Vsphere upgrade, I'm not at a point but where I test things like Vmotion.

• updated reference dell dimension and have no sound what to do to restore the sound?

  I have no noise ran restore disc have everything clean and now I have no audio / suggestions?
  It is a dell dimension 4700 with windows xp home edition installed.

  Bill Smithers is OK... but my experience has been that the list of drivers on the Dell site for sound is confusing because they often have more than one driver.   Download you the driver from Dell and it does not work, and they have another one, try the other.

• Reference Dell MD3000i and degraded physical disk channel

  In this case recovery guru say "you must contact your technical support representative to correct this defect. Do NOT try to fix this problem yourself. So, how we can receive technical support recommendations and try to repair this failure?

  If you need more details, we can put any storage array profile output.

  Hello UtkinE,

  Yes, you will need to stop all iSCSI traffic so that you can update the NVSRAM.  With the timeout error you get all came from controller 1 & he had only discs 1 & 5.  The current version of NVSRAM you version 4 and the last one which is for the MD3000i is version 13.  With who have older firmware it was improvements to correct your problem in the latest versions of firmware.  I also had one of our analysts will confirm as well just to make sure that it is the best fix for your problem.

  Please let us know if you have any other questions.
