• Relocation of the unusable VCenter Server after data store

  I needed to move the VCenter server only US planes of the DataStore has located on SAN1 to B data store located on SAN2 because we were retiring SAN1. After connecting directly to the VMhost which housed the vCenter Server VM, closing the vCenter Server and remove the vCenter Server inventory, I scoured data store A and moved the server vCenter to B data store directory. "After the copy is completed, I added the back inot inventory of vCenter Server, it works, toldi it"I moved"and received an error message indicating the file vCentersrvr.vmdk ' was absent.

  A review of the content directory for vCenter data store b shows no vCentersrvr.vmdk, but rather lists a file called vCentersrvr - flat hard. The type of file, the file is listed as "file". I tried to rename this gall and turn on/off the VM, but still no luck. Here are my questions:

  1. Can I save this installation? The original directory no longer exists (it was deleted automatically after the copy of the file).
  2. If I can't save this installation, can I just rebuild a new vCenter Server and Add (2) hosts that are currently managed by the vCenter Server server has failed?

  There is another method to recreate the descriptor VMDK files. http://www.phdvirtual.com/VMDKstubgenerator

• Displacement of the VM attached to several data stores

  ESX 5.1.  I'm moving from one SAN to another.  I have a Windows VM file server that is attached to the "OS" data store which is 100 GB (for the OS, program installation, etc.) and the data store 'Data' that is 500 GB (where the file real stock data is stored).  On the new San, I created new warehouses of data, "New_OS" and "See you."

  What is the best way to move my data to the new data warehouses?  I know that I can use storage VMotion to move the virtual computer, but who will attempt to move the 'BONES' and 'Data' to 'New_OS' correct?  (Which of course will not work, since there is not enough space.)  I think that I have to remove 'Data' of the existing virtual computer, move it to 'See you' via a browser data store, move the computer virtual using VMotion, then add "you see?"  This sounds more complicated than it should be.  Am I missing something here?

  Thank you.

  Am I missing something here?

  Yes, it lacks the 'Advanced' option in Storage vMotion which will allow that move you each hard to a data store different... to do this, just follow the screens of Storage vMotion and select the data store, click on advanced and for each virtual hard disk and virtual machine configuration file, select the data store you want.

  Take a look at the documentation: http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-51/index.jsp#com.vmware.vsphere.vcenterhost.doc/GUID-A15EE2F6-AAF5-40DC-98B7-0DF72E166888.html

  Store the configuration of virtual machines and disks files in different places.

  one Click Advanced. b For the virtual machine for each virtual disk configuration file, select Browse and select a data store or cluster storage DRS. c (Optional) If you selected a cluster DRS for storage and do not use Storage DRS to this virtual machine, select Disable DRS storage for this virtual machine and select a store of data within the storage DRS cluster. d Click Next.

• View the number of paths and the political path for each data store

  Hi all

  Seem to be stuck on this one. and all that seems to be able to find through topis and scripts for the air path setting. All I have to do is list each data store to its policy of access road and the number of path for the data store on the host computer.

  I'm gussiing it uses the get-vmhoststorage cmdlet?

  Any help much appriciated.

  Try something like this

  Get-VMHost | %{

• Using several data stores, cannot migrate the vmx file in a data store

  I am host migration between 3.5 and 4.0, and part of the migration requires me to vmotion data to a single shared LUN data warehouses.  From there on, I import the virtual machine in 4.0 and using the script to migrate the two VM disks at different stores of data below.  The problem I have is that the configuration (vmx) file not migrated and is left on the shared storage LUNS.  Anyone knows how to go beyond this?

  The Script:

  $VMDisk = 'disk 1 '.

  $VMName = 'TestVM '.

  $TargetDS = get-Datastore - VMHost (Get-VMHost-$S.id Id) | Where-Object {$_.} Name - like "PMV"} | "" FreeSpaceMB tri-objet-descending | SELECT name - first of all 1

  $vm = get-View - ViewType VirtualMachine-filter @{"Name" = $VMName}

  foreach ($dev in $vm. Config.Hardware.Device) {if ($dev. DeviceInfo.Label - eq $vmDisk) {$diskId = $dev. Key}}

  $spec = new-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineRelocateSpec

  $diskspec = new-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineRelocateSpecDiskLocator

  $diskspec. Data store = (Get-Datastore-name $TargetDS.Name |) Get - View). MoRef

  $diskspec.diskId = $diskId

  $spec. Disk = @($diskspec)

  $task = get-View ($vm. RelocateVM_Task ($spec, "lowpriority"))

  OK, I think I understand your problem now.

  I fear that in the current construction of PowerCLI, the Move-VM cmdlet does not destinations of individual data for each virtual hard disk store.

  With the RelocateVM_Task method, it is possible.

  The following script moves a guest at 3 different data warehouses:

  -the. VMX file for DS2

  -hard disk 1 for DS3

  -hard drive 2 TB DS4

  $vmName = "MyGuest"
  $vmxDS = "DS2"
  $osDS = "DS3"
  $dataDS = "DS4"
  
  $vm = Get-VM -Name $vmName
  
  $vm.Extensiondata.Config.Hardware.Device | %{
       if ($_.DeviceInfo.Label -eq "Hard disk 1"){
            $osDiskId = $_.Key
       }
       elseif($_.DeviceInfo.Label -eq "Hard disk 2"){
            $dataDiskId = $_.Key
       }
  }
  
  $spec = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineRelocateSpec
  
  $osRelocate = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineRelocateSpecDiskLocator
  $osRelocate.Datastore = (Get-Datastore -Name $osDS).Extensiondata.MoRef
  $osRelocate.diskId = $osDiskId
  
  $dataRelocate = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineRelocateSpecDiskLocator
  $dataRelocate.Datastore = (Get-Datastore -Name $dataDS).Extensiondata.MoRef
  $dataRelocate.diskId = $dataDiskId
  
  $spec.Disk = @($osRelocate,$dataRelocate)
  $spec.Datastore = (Get-Datastore -Name $vmxDS).Extensiondata.MoRef
  $spec.Host = $vm.Extensiondata.Summary.Runtime.Host
  
  $task = Get-View ($vm.Extensiondata.RelocateVM_Task($spec, "lowpriority"))
  while("running","queued" -contains $task.Info.State){
       $task.UpdateViewData("Info")
       sleep 5
  }
  

  BTW, you can use the cmdlet Set - hard disk to a virtual disk that is specific to a data store.

  But as I understood what is not possible in your environment.

• Connection to the AOP with several NIC data store

  I have a situation where I need to have the computer that is running the tiara to be connected to two different networks.  I have two NIC installed in the machine, NIC A and B NIC, we will call them.  The reason for this is that I use Diadem to access the server on a machine of AVL PUMA AO.  If I connect to the local network PUMA, PUMA sometimes breaks down, probably something to do with the IP address.  So PUMA has need to be on a network that is not a router.  My tiara computer must communicate with PUMA, as well as with local shared drives on our corporate network.

  In any case, I have the company LAN hung on A NIC and hung on NIC B PUMA network.  Tiara fails to connect when the two networks are connected, but connects to the data store no problem when that network PUMA is hung. Any ideas how to solve this problem?  It seems tiara is looking for NIC - A instead of NIC B, as appropriate.

  For reference, when the two NIC is connected, I can access other than readers, and separate computers to ping on both networks, without problem, is not a connection problem.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  -Russ

  I guess poth NIC have different IP.

  -Did you use IP instead of the server name.

  -Do you use RPC or CORBA to access the PUMA Server?

  -What version of DIAdem.

  You can create a log file when the connection has failed?

  Of photos muchas gracias.

  Hello

  Ah yes, I forgot about it.

  You can fool ODI by changing the logical length of the column in the data store in the model.

  In this way the I$ table will have a length of more than time and you won't have the problem.

• Try to re-signing and mount a data store

  Hi all

  I'm stuck trying to develop a "workflow" and hoping you can help. We need to make a daily DR copy of a production database and edit this copy on another virtual machine. The database feeds a hard with his own logic unit number and is heavily used, so we can suspend only wrote a few minutes.

  
  

  Here are the high-level workflow:

  1. Suspend the entries in the database
  2. Create a virtual copy (snapshot) of the LUN on our 3PAR
  3. Resume database entries
  4. Export (present) the virtual copy of the 3PAR to the ESXi cluster
  5. A rescan storage on all hosts in the cluster
  6. Add the LUN and re-signature of the data store
  7. Mount the VMDK from the new LUN to the VM test

  I fight a bit to make the portion of ESXi work. I can re-scan storage successfully on my host, but I'm not able to go up and re-signing of the data store newly discovered. Onyx told me to use resignatureUnresolvedVmfsVolume_Task , but the action failed with "TypeError: cannot find the resignatureUnresolvedVmfsVolume_Task function in the object (Instance) DynamicWrapper: [VcHostSystem]-[class com.vmware.vmo.plugin.vi4.model.VimHostSystem]" I run 5.5.2 vRO/vCO and don't have the library installed vi4 nor do I have all the actions that will be re-signing a volume.

  So I wonder, ResignatureUnresolvedVmfsVolume_Task has been deprecated and replaced by something else? Or did someone knows a library/plugin that I can add to vRO who will give me the opportunity to re-signing a data store?

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  See you soon!

  Hello

  The error message, it seems you are trying to call the method resignatureUnresolvedVmfsVolume_Task() on the object of type VcHostSystem. something like that

  var task = hostSystem.resignatureUnresolvedVmfsVolume_Task(spec);
  

  The problem is that resignatureUnresolvedVmfsVolume_Task() is not a method of type VcHostSystem, but in VcHostDatastoreSystemcharacters, therefore, you get this error.

  To fix it, you must obtain an object of type VcHostDatastoreSystem. Research in the API Explorer, you should be able to get VcHostDatastoreSystem object VcHostSystem object through the configManager property (which returns an object of type VcHostConfigManager), then property of datastoreSystem . Something like the following code:

  var task = hostSystem.configManager.datastoreSystem.resignatureUnresolvedVmfsVolume_Task(spec);
  

  I don't have a good environment to test, but it should work.

  I hope this helps.

• How to remove the virtual computer on a data store

  I'm moving VM (by the data store) to my new cluster data store and as I release a DS I have delete and create new with VMFS5.  I just emptied a data store but when I run the following command it shows again two VM on the same DS so when I navigate on the DS it is empty.

  Get-datastore-name "DS_NAME | Get - vm | FT name

  How to see where/how/why these two VMs are on the DS when it seems to be empty, and I'm assuming that PowerCLI is my best result. Of course, I don't want to just delete the DS as possible casue a problem with these virtual machines.  When I look at the settings them of each virtual machine they show that they are on a store of separate data and not that I'm trying to delete.

  Any help is appreciated

  Thank you

  Sean

  You can do:

  Notice-EEG-Id | Get-VIObjectByVIView

  or:

  Get - VM | Get-Datastore

• get the names of Get-ScsiLun data store

  Im stuck here...  Can anyone help me to get the names of data store for storage devices using the script below? My requirement is to get the naa (ConsoleDeviceName) address and the names of data store for each storage device.

  $esxName = "esxsrv1".

  $report = @)

  Get-ScsiLun - VmHost $esxName - LunType "disk". %{

  $row.vendor = $_. Name of the vendor

  $row.model = $_. Model

  $report += $row

  }

  Thank you very much, Kev - o

  Try it like this

  $esxName = "esxsrv1"
  
  $dsTab = @{}
  foreach($ds in (Get-Datastore -VMHost $esxName | where {$_.Type -eq "vmfs"})){
      $ds.Extensiondata.Info.Vmfs.Extent | %{
          $dsTab[$_.DiskName] = $ds.Name

          }
      }
      $report += $row}
  
  $report |Export-Csv c:\Temp\results.csv -NoTypeInformation
  

  The script begins by creating a hash table where he maps the CanonicalName with the DatastoreName.

  In the 2nd part of the script of the hash table is used to find the DatastoreName through the CanonicalName.

• Host virtual computer and Migration of data store

  I'm curious. I have an environment with Cisco UCS UC servers without them. Due to they are C-Series all storage is local for UC virtual machines run. I'll add some of the UCS C-Series servers and you want to move two of my current C-Series server CPU virtual machines to the new. I have the license Enterprise Plus 4.1 for all servers and execution of vCenter. The migration will be basicall move local data store to store local data as well under the name from host to host. My plan is to turn off the virtual machines and migrate both host and the data store at the same time. I have groups of ports built as follows:

  Port of VMKernerl groups:

  -Storage (for future shared storage)

  -vMotion

  -PI

  -ESXi Mgmt

  Virtual machine:

  -CPU VMS

  -Machines virtual server

  My overall question is during this migration takes place this network (or a group of Port) will be the traffic go anywhere for the move? My guess is because it is the local storage, it will use the Mgmt. ESXi

  Thank you!

  If the virtual machine will be moved to store Local data to store common data shared through 2 esxi host, then the storage shared for local storage.

  So this will be the case through network vMotion and not via the management network.

  But you can enable vmotion on management network itself. If you have configured like this then yes communication will be via the management via vmotion network IPkerenel active network.
