Replicate a virtual machine between an Intel host computer and an AMD

Does anyone has experiences with using vSphere replication to replicate a virtual machine between Intel server cluster and a cluster of servers AMD?

I asked myself this question the other day and unfortunately I have Intel hosts in my lab to test/demo so can not perform checks...

I know that the only safe way to migrate a virtual machine from one host to Intel to a host of AMD is to use migration cold (ie the power off of the virtual computer), but that also applies if you use replication as a tool of "migration."

I am aware vSphere replication can occur only if the source THAT VM is turned on, as it will make a copy of the initial/seed and then use CBT for replication of the changes... but because the goal of VM is turned off, I am correct in assuming that it is a form of "cold migration"?

It works with the solution of Veem replication with VMware hosts.

Reference:replication requirements. See the topic

It seems to even work with Hyper V - replica.

Hyper-V R2 2012 replica from INTEL to AMD? -Spiceworks

In my view, this works for vSphere same replication as well. However, I will stay here with confirmation.

    VMHost and folder use the Get-VM-setting position. You must select either using the Where-Object cmdlet filter. For example:

    Get-VMHost $esx_hostname |
    Get-VM |
    Where-Object {$_.Folder.Name -eq $folder_name}
    
  • Cannot ping a virtual machine, except on the host computer.

    I have a host of SuSE, built on a chassis of IBM. It has a link for the failover interface. It has an IP of 10.10.138.196. SM 255.255.255.128. DG 10.10.138.129. I can ping this machine without problem. On that note, I have a virtual machine of SuSE. It has the same mask and gateway with an IP address of 10.10.138.197. It can ping the host (196) and the host can it ping. However, he cannot ping to the gateway by defaut.129. He receives a message Impossible to its own virtual interface. I have installation bridged networking early with no luck.

    I tried to change the DG on the guest a.196. I have installation routes by default, and specific directions to 10.10.138.129 on the host and the guest without success. I talked to a few colleagues and they are not of course either. I need this available, so it can be used for a variety of applications.

    You will not see a virtual NETWORK adapter for bridged interface, only for NAT and the host-only networking. There will be a device/dev/vmnet0, but that is not actually used to fill itself.

    Your problem is that your bridged interface is bound to the wrong card on the host: it must be related to "bond0" not "eth0". You will need to re - run /usr/bin/vmware-config.pl to address which forces all running VMs to be stopped.

  • Virtual MACHINE running on two hosts after hung vmotion

    Hello

    I started a VMotion of virtual machine by host A to host B. The request got hung at 65% for several hours. I restarted the VCenter service, registered to vsphere. The process was running is longer, but now the virtual machine appears on the Host A and host B.

    The Cluster-'Virtual Machine' tab displays the virtual machine and cycles between two hosts seconds couple?

    Anyone seen this before? How can I fix it? Thanks in advance!

    First of all, it's impossible.  A virtual machine cannot be in 2 places at once.  It's just in the transition.

    Secondly, vCenter manages the process but it doesn't actually do the vMotion, ESX hosts are.

    What is happening is life of the virtual machine on the host only until the end of the evolution towards the other host (somewhere around 97%) when the transfer is confirmed with the new host.

    Best thing to do is to restart the services of management on both hosts and see if that frees the vMotion.

  • Is it possible to migrate a virtual machine between vcenter servers programmatically?

    Hi all

    My question is quite simple:

    -Is it possible to migrate a virtual machine between vcenter servers programmatically?

    Let's say we have two data centers:

    vcenter1

    -vm1

    -vm2

    vcenter2

    -vm3

    Is it possible to migrate vms between vcenter2 and vcenter1 programmatically? (or vice versa)?

    Also, I'm assuming that the appropriate VLAN and data warehouses across the different vcenters!

    Thank you

    Luis

    It is not possible, vMotion or migration live is in an instance of vCenter, it cannot be covered through two even if you have the data store accessible both vCenters and sets of the host. At best, you can unregister the virtual machine of vCenter 1 host and re-save as on vCenter 2 host, but once again, it is while the virtual machine is turned off.

  • Disable vmotion for 1 virtual machine in an ESX host

    Hello

    We have an ESX environment that is configured with vMotion.

    As a result, I've seen VMs from one ESX to another very frequently.

    Among these virtual machines, I have a very critical virtual machine, I want to move to any other host ESX.

    Y at - it an option that I can use to disable VMotion only for this particular virtual machine of mine (in order to keep constant on the ESX on which it is right now) and allow the other virtual machines to continue.

    Appreciate your help.

    Thanks in advance

    I guess that your VMS migrate between ESX servers because configuration automated DRS ESX cluster level. You can replace it for a specific virtual machine. Cluster of right click Select-> "Settings"-> click on options of the Virtual Machine under VMware DRS,. On the right, make sure 'Enable the levels of automation individuak virtual machine' is checked. You can see VMs list below. Select the virtual machine that you want to replace and change the level of automation for people with reduced mobility

  • ESX as a virtual machine on an ESX host

    Currently, I am installing ESX as a virtual machine on an ESX host. I have a couple of hosts potentially put this VM: two 4.0 in the course of execution, one running 4.1. I would like to run this VM on the host running 4.1, and the virtual machine must run 4.0. Thanks to my documentation and research of compatibility, I found that it is not supported as an operating system to run in a virtual machine under ESX ESX, but it's for the workstation and fusion. I read on some blogs that ESX install as a virtual machine on an ESX host is possible (at least on older versions), but comes with a few problems, which have no workaround. I found (external) positions regarding do all this with the 4.0, but my preference would be to do with 4.1 on the host and 4.0 on the virtual computer. I can't find something to do with 4.1, which is not surprising given that the upgrade became available less than two weeks ago. Does anyone tried it yet? Is there anything, you have found or recommend as I approach to do this? (I read that the virtual computer must be configured as a computer virtual running RHEL 5 with 2 GB of RAM http://when all this is done with version 4.0, but I was not able to find much more.) Thanks in advance for any help and suggestions!

    Hello

    Yes, I tried last week and it worked for me. You are on the right track, we must select RHEL 5 64-bit as OS and assign the 2 GB of ram, and in addition to sound, you will need to use E1000 NICs for the installation to complete.

    FYI, this configuration is not taken in charge/tested/certified by VMware.

    Hope this information helps

  • All virtual machines on my ESX host off power at the same time

    Hi all

    Recently I attend the interview. a guy asked me this question

    What was the cause of the highest of the error, how to troubleshoot the error.please me.anybody guide to address this problem?

    Thanks

    Surya

    If all the virtual machines if lower at the same time, my bet would be VMware HA. Just for fun, build it inside your head:

    (1) 8 ESX nodes, all service consoles connected to a unique management switch.

    (2) now to create a cluster of these nodes, put all your virtual machines in there and activate HA, choose ' host isolation response: power off.

    (3) draw power from your management switch. HA on each host will deduct that the host is isolated-> turn off all the virtual machines.

    Each host will think the same thing, and hop find you with all virtual machines down to the time in the whole of the cluster. Have seen this one several times when people go and upgrade their management switches in the evening ("hey, it's only management").

  • Best Senario distributed virtual machine between SAN LUNS and replication fail over Senario

    What the best best Senario for the installation of virtual machines on Big LUN or each VM on LUNS dedicated:

    We planninig to implement 70 virtual machines on Esx 3.5 servers with replication LUN usisng CA of HP 7.

    using 4 Big 800 GB data store on SAN RAID 5 Lun (each LUN will be contains 16 VMS)? or each VM will be deployed in separate small LUN 50 GB data store on SAN, RAID 5 and that this effect on the failure during the procedure on the DR Site if we choose BIG LUNs, also if this virtual machine includes 3 disks (store them on each disk on the different data store or the same data store)

    Thank you

    Remember that the virtual machine is a set of files and these files directly in your data store.  If you have a large store of data with multiple virtual machines, you must replicate the full data on the alternative site store in order to get to that data.  You can't really use greater SAN replication for just the simple vm in a data store.  SAN replication is not really aware of what is stored on it, she replied just blocks he knows.  You can copy the vm files individually as well, but it's more than a copy and not replication.  Otherwise, if you are concerned about vs some other vm, then using a small LUN would work better for you, or warehouses of data at multiple levels allows you to replicate the vm that are important to you and put the rest in a larger data store.

    FCIP/FC/IP doesn't really matter.  Until a table can talk to each other, you're fine.  Our secondary site is hundreds of miles away, and replicate us very well during the period of INQUIRY, from one table to the other.

    Yes, without SRM, you will need to manually register a virtual machine at the time, or write a script to work through all the.

  • To access the virtual machines of two different hosts

    Greetings,

    I have a question that I can't find the answer to. I am setting up a virtual machine environment small and need to better understand the architecture behind it.

    2 host servers

    1 iSCSI Equallogic San (target)

    I have installed 35i ESX and runnning on two physical hosts. .205 et.206

    I created a data store on my SAN to host my 'model' VM.

    De.205, I can see the data on the SAN network store and browse the virtual machine I (using VMConverter) moved there.

    De.206, I can see the data store on the SAN, but when I sail, I do not see the same information. I see no. VM.

    MY understanding is that using the SAN to store the virtual machine and that I would make the hosts of this data store to run the virtual machine. But the way in which it seems that I have the virtual machine configured on both hosts, always pointing the data store on the San but again using converter, copy de.205 vers.206.

    What don't understand me or that I don't understand.

    Your help is appreciated.

    Welcome to the VMware community forums.   If you have configured things Ok, you will be able to browse the data from these two hosts store and see the same content.  You can register the virtual computers on both hosts.  For an existing VM on the host from 1, you find the data on the host of the 2nd store, right-click on the VMX file and select Add to the inventory.  Have you thought to vcenter server?  It's going to do it is a lot easier.

  • Moving virtual machines between ESX environments

    Hello-

    I understand that when you try to move a virtual machine between two servers to ESX 3.5 disparate, one way to proceed is to use WinSCP to move the files to the machine and then 'register' the machine via the data store on the destination ESX navigation area.  I also read, however, that this practice may not be wise because it is better to execute a command to import, I think that vmkfsutil or something similar to this.  Hope to find confirmation on what would be the best practice in this scenario.

    Thank you very much in advance.

    You must turn off all the virtual machines on the host with 55xx Xeons before turning on the VCA.
