Retrieve the list of the hosts connected to vCenter
I'm creating an extension of the administrator, who is not associated with any context object. I want to show all hosts and virtual machines running on the host tree. How can I retrieve this information by using dam?
Or you should be able to do something like that to get a template for the list of virtual machines in a host.
[Model(type="HostSystem")]
SerializableAttribute public class VmData extends {DataObject
[Model (= "vm as VirtualMachine" relationship,
nestedModel = "com.vmware.samples.viewspropertiesui.model.VmDataItem")]
[ArrayElementType ("com.vmware.samples.viewspropertiesui.model.VmDataItem")]
public var vms:Array / * VmDataItem * /.
...
}

Error created another Console service, unable to connect to the host by vSphere vCenter
After creating an another Service Console unable to connect to the host by vSphere vCenter. How can I remove the now Service Console or make the old one further work well?
Thank you.
George
This KB will show you the steps to re-create the Service Console, but you'll need to console or ILO access to the ESX host.

Greetings,
After update to Virtual Center of 2.0.2 to 2.0.5 - alerts; State of the host connection = no answer. Currently ESX ver 3.3. Service Console RAM is 800 MB. Someone comes on this issue. Please suggest.
Thank you

Sounds good the problem crept... FIR alarms... service VC services.msc reboot and see if it helps... If not we will have to examine the log files to see if there are errors.

How to dynamically retrieve the host name of the server APEX?
Hello
I have request Express installed 3.1.0.00.32 on 2 servers in a configuration of dataguard, which means I can failover from one server to the other.
The problem I encounter is the URL. I wrote a beautiful PL/SQ/procedure to send mail, in the body of the mail it is a URL that points to a hard-coded host name (teleg1:7777)
It can occur I the digital switchover to the other server which name would be teleg2, but then the url change because the host name is "teleg2:7777".BEGIN .... l_url := 'http://teleg1:7777/pls/apex/f?p=109:29:::NO::P29_ID:'||C1.ID ; ....
It should be like this:
Is there a way to retrieve the host name of a global variable of APEX, something like G_HOSTNAME? Or from another source? As a result, the procedure is as follows:l_url := 'http://teleg2:7777/pls/apex/f?p=109:29:::NO::P29_ID:'||C1.ID ;
The varialbe G_HOSTNAME would contain etiher "teleg1" or "teleg2" according to the APEX server that executes the PL/SQL procedure at this time.l_url := 'http://||G_HOSTNAME||:7777/pls/apex/f?p=109:29:::NO::P29_ID:'||C1.ID ;
I hope I am clear.
Good day!
ChristianUse the functionowa_util.get_cgi_env . You'd be interested in CGI environment variables SERVER_NAME and SERVER_PORT.

Update of the hosts that have vCenter on them
I have a vCenter with 2 hosts running ESXi v4. I want to install the updates, but to do this I need to stop the guest computers and go to maintenance mode. Well the 2 hosts run the sql server and the server vcenter, so when I have them stop I can't connect and so cannot be upgraded machines. I thought that there was a stand-alone product and that I could use to update servers or some update offline. My question is how can I update the ESXi servers if I have to close my vCenter and SQL server?
Your question, I assume you have local storage only, shared storage to migrate the server vCenter Server from one host to another. In this case, you must manually edit the hosts. If you are using ESXi 4.0, you can use the "Host Update Utility" which is optionally installed with the vSphere Client. In the case of ESXi 4.1 you must use the vihostupdate command-line utility.

SG 300-28: duplication of port: loses the network connectivity of the destination host
Hello
We have two SG 300-28. On one of them, I have configured the port mirroring because a host behaves strangely. When I create the mirror, the host connected to the destination port is not available any longer, for example, it does not meet a ping. Port source packages appears on the port of destination, but no package intended to be the host itself. East - this behaviour right? I agreed that the host on the destination port is always accessible, as it would be without the mirror.
Bernd
HE Bernd,
Yes. This behavior is just. That's how Port Mirroring works. The host connected to the Destination port loses its connectivity and it can act as a monitoring device using programs like WireShark (and monitor packages coming to and from the Source port (s)). All configurations on the destination port are substituted.
Let me know if you need assistance,
HTH,
Vijay

vCO 4.0 had a 32 bit JRE 1.5, vCO 4.1 has a 64-bit JRE 1.6.
I don't know if the plugin VIM3.5, you have the 4.0 version works on version 4.1. I'm sure it wasn't something QA teams tested.
I checked with the doc team. The latest guide mentioning the plugin vim3.5 is the 4.01. It must be available for this version of vCO (4.0 Update 1).
To be in a position to support, you must install a 4.01, including the plugin vim3.5 vCO in the Install_Directory/extras/plugins folder.
Ideally of course, you'd have the last corresponding vCO 4.1 / vCenter 4.1 U1.
Please note that the workflow in writing against the plugin vim3.5 will requires that the types of plug-ins for vim3.5 for plug-ins to VC of refactoring.

Connect comments on a different network than the host
Hello
I just started to use VMWare instead of Virtual PC, and I'm stuck trying to do something that I used to have the installer.
I want to be able to connect to a virtual computer to a wireless network and independent of the host connection. In this case, the host will not be connected to a WLAN network, but the virtual machine will be.
Is this possible?
Thanks for any help.
Not regarding virtualization, I suspect unless you remove the .inf and .pnf files in the folder %systemrot%\inf of the guest for the VMware NICs and and add IDs PCI of its .inf file for the .inf for your wireless card that you have copied to here and also change the drivers referenced in the .inf for your wireless card file to be the VMware ones. Not tried this, just a theory and not a beautiful there :|

Get the name of the host that a virtual machine is running, rather than the host ID
Hello
Looking for a little help, I question the result of a get - vm of the. Run to find the name of the host to a virtual machine runs on. All I seem to get is the host id that is a number.
Y at - it an option in the GET - vm, which displays the name of the host, or is it possible to remove the name of the host from the value of the provided host id.
What I want to do is the following:
Enter a name for the virtual machine, hop on the host his race, ask the host for its groups of ports available, introduce an option of these groups of ports and when you enter the name, set the Group of ports of entry. Without the actual host name I can't find it.
$selectedVM = read-host "enter the name of the VM.
$vm = get - vm $selectedVM | Get-opinion
$runhost = $vm.runtime.host
$portgroups = get-virtualportgroup - VMHost $runhost
'Port available to connect groups '.
$portgroups
$selectedPG = read-host "enter the port group name.
$netadapters = get-networkadapter - VM $selectedVM
ForEach ($netadapter to $netadapters)
{
all-NIC - NIC NetworkName $netadapter - $selectedPG - StartConnected: $TRUE - confirm: $false
}
Any help on this would be really appreciated.
Thank you
Dan
Hi Dan,.
You can retrieve the host name by using the Get-VMHost cmdlet
$selectedVM = read-host "Enter VM Name" $vmhost = Get-VMHost -VM (Get-VM -Name $selectedVM) | Select-Object Name $runhost = $vmhost.Name
Hope this helps

Clean shutdown for EqualLogic PS6100 without stopping the host/iSCSI initiator
In fact, I've known the procedure on how to stop the Equallogic PS storage. But I have a question as well as the procedure.
Do you really need to stop the iSCSI initiator or the host connected to the storage before you shut down the storage controller?
Because we move the Equallogic box on the rack on the other. I just want to stop the Equallogic without stopping the hosts.
Hello
The hosts are connected to some other storage that you want to keep as you move the table EQL? If you stop the storage, it is similar to pulling on a hard drive in its operation. Most of the time nothing bad will happen. But all entries that did not allow the storage is lost. For applications such as SQL or Exchange is not something you want.
If you need to keep the server up, stop all applications accessing the volumes, then disconnect all EQL volumes first, and then stop the EQL table. Will be served waiting for the written word.
Kind regards
Don

Compliance on the host or vCenter
When executing scripts of compliance, are these executed against information from the host or information in vCenter? The host is current vCenter questioned or any just? I'm trying to understand the impact of running scripts against the hosts/groups/centres of data, etc. Thanks for any info you can provide.
This information is extracted from the server where the Update Manager service is running.
Since you do not have a real analysis, nothing will be launched on the ESXi hosts.

vCenter Server is a virtual machine, how can I update the host
I have 2 guests in our environment, I have updated the host of the 2nd, but may not know how to upgrade the 1 host because vcenter server runs as a virtual machine on it. This has me thinking that I don't have the installation program as best as possible.
Basically, we have 2 Guest boxes and a small box of DC. I don't really want to run vcenter on the dc area. What would be the best soltuong for our environment? Can I keep vcenter as a virtual machine? If Yes, how can I update the host it will run on?
Thanks in advance everyone... Chris
I was afraid of that say you that
Well in this case you may need to update the host manually (see for example http://communities.vmware.com/people/vmroyale/blog/2011/09/15/updating-esxi-5--single-use-esxcli-how-to) even with the need to manually update the host on which vCenter Server is running, I would always run as a virtual machine. There is usually not that many updates.
