• VMware ESXi 5 licenses

  Hello

  I think I have too much choice, but someone who has more experience on ESXi 5 licenses might have a better deal...

  We have 2 locations for the moment, run 2 servers ESXi 5 the other branch done 3 of the same thing.

  Once more the RAM on certain hosts would be awesome, and of course Central magagment would be great.

  I found the key packs, like right now THAT HA no is not essential - VMware vSphere Essentials Kit would suffice - offers more RAM, centralized management, but only for 3 guests.

  Seems I need centralized management for multiple hosts I choose Standard Kit of acceleration? But in this case, Miss me the ability to upgrade RAM - or not with the terms in the Kit of Essentials and is also much more expensive...

  What seems the best offer price, buy two essential elements it's can I manage 5 hosts under the same server vCenter (guees not)?

  Could someone give advice on this issue?

  Kind regards

  ... where your I find some information?

  In the document of pricing and licenses white at http://www.vmware.com/files/pdf/vsphere_pricing.pdf (page 7)

  .. vCenter Server Standard begins from 6000 USD non-larger than 32 GB RAM... as well as other licenses...

  With the acceleration Standard Kit, you get an instance of vCenter Server Standard more processor Standard with 32GB vRAM right 8 licenses each (256 GB total) and you can add additional CPU if necessary licenses. (see page 8 in the same document as above)

• Satellite A30: System busy after returning from standby

  My abrupt A30 Satellite developed a problem when returning from standby mode. The system busy "Hourglass" is constantly and will not die. I have reploaded the power management utility since all options in 'Properties of power Option' are grayed out except for the "Power Meter" tab. It did make a difference.

  This problem appears at the beginning?
  Maybe the operating system has been installed there several times and now the registry entries are corrupted.
  This is why the system busy hourglass may appear.

  I m not 100% sure that this will help, but maybe you need to reinstall the whole OS
  On the new OS installed should all work a lot faster

• In Esxi ESXi: MKS to VM on virtualized ESXI does not work

  Hello

  I hope someone could help me with the question below.

  I am unable to open the connection of MKS of VM - 10 to VM(Gold-VM) located on the nested ESXi (Esxi55-5) host. Webpage keeps loading MKS for gold - VM, but it does not display anything.

  DNSServer, VM-10, VCSA, ESXi55-5 are connected to the same SSswitch - VM Port Group(Promiscuous Mode), subnet

  Gold - VM... Virtual computer located on nested ESXi host

  VM-10... Computer virtual located on the physical host of ESXi, where I am trying to open the connection of MKS to gold - VM

  VCSA... vcenter server located on physical host IP ESXi (192.168.1.3)

  ESXi55-5... Virtualized Esxi host connected to the server vcenter VCSA

  DNSserver... facilitating the DNS service

  Newspapers from virtualized host Esxi55-5:

  

  VM - 10 newspapers:

  

  with MKS Web page:

  

  I just found out what was the reason that connection MKS display a blank page in the browser Web IE11.

  The solution was very simple: add local.domain to the Compatibility Mode in browser IE11.

• What is the maximum size of virtual disk in machines virtual esxi 4.0

  I am trying to create a virtual disk to a virtual machine, I want to make the size of the 300 GB disk but its not allowing to create.

  Can I know what is the maximum size of virtual disk, we can create in machines virtual esxi 4.0 with vmfs3 partition

  
  

  The maximum size of the virtual disk that you can use depends on the size of the selected block when formatting of the data store. With the default of 1 MB block size, the maximum size of virtual disk on a VMFS-3 datastore is ~ 256MB.

• Virtual ESXi / nested virtualization and VCA

  Hi all

  We tried to install some new virtual ESXi servers in our dev environment. to help our R & D.

  The problem is that our clusters must be activated EVC - Merom Genesis so that R & D for work stuff.

  I tried to use the following two articles:

  http://www.virtuallyghetto.com/2011/07/how-to-enable-support-for-nested-64bit.html

  http://www.virtuallyghetto.com/2012/02/how-to-configure-nested-ESXi-5-to.html

  After finishing the first link, the ESXi virtual is able to run 64-bit virtual machines. So all is well (although I stumbled upon both problems with this - apparently, you can't physical host the virtual ESX running in a CVS in the first place of accommodation).

  So after the ESXi virtual is able to run machines virtual 64-bit, I continue to the 2nd link and it doesn't work. I do exactly what the guy said there is still the virtual ESXi is not compatible with the EVC cluster and the 64 bit hosted on the virtual ESXi VM cannot run after changes to the CPUID mask.

  Someone knows something similar? Someone has ideas of what I'm doing wrong or can give me some ideas on what to do?

  Thanks in advance,

  Nitzan.

  In my view, the following option:

  CPUID.1.ECX = 00000000000000001010001000011001

  should be

  CPUID.1.ECX = 00000000000000001010001000111001

• Virtualized ESXi host is not assigned an IP address

  My virtualized ESXi host is not assigned an IP address on a DHCP network. I created it on my physical host with a physical NIC.

  Both its E1000 vNIC is networked with virtually the same Vswitch as the physical host, I created a second Service Console on this vswitch for the ESXi host virtualized, what I need to change the IP of virtual servers to match the newly created Service Console?

  I found a guide on changing the IP address of the vswif on the virtual host, I'm going in the right direction?

  If you run ESXi on ESX (i) then you must enable the mode promicuous on the VM host vSwitch portgroup.

• Can we change ESXi host license license free licensed?

  We currently have two additional CPU of ESX license so that we can assign a new install ESXi host that is not connected to FC SAN.

  However, we would like to know because of the need, can change us the license assigned to the ESXi host under a free license, so that we can use it on another ESX or ESXi host?

  Thank you

  Yes, you can change any time, licenses you have is only the functionality.

  If you run virtual Center and you have a rich license feature and decided to change for free, save a single license, you could end up losing the functionality and the ability to power on if some vm of the vcpu exceed your new license mode.

  But tehcnically licenses you can change anytime, you could even remove a license and return to eval for 60 days.

• MS win Server R2 2012 and Hyper-V issue licenses

  My company has 60 employees (and 60 desktops / laptops) and currently have an old principle that server solution of Microsoft Basic with element a cloud as Office 365 for email only. We seek to reduce the estate of server to Server (2 CPU - Dell PowerEdge T610), it currently runs on two old but not sterilized systems running Windows Server 2003 R2 (Dell PowerEdge 2900) and Windows Server 2008 R2 (Dell PowerEdge T610).

  In the short term, we want to create a brand new installation of MS Windows Server R2 Standard edition 2012 who will manage our advertising (and DC) and support businesses main accounting IRIS software that requires a MS SQL DB. This cloud all must be configured to allow integration with MS Azure Site recovery to allow us to turn up in the azure of the VM disaster. In my view, this means that the configuration of the OS as a Hyper-V virtual machine instance.

  The new server Win 2012 R2 has not really be a VM as its only one instance that I need, but from what I can make out, I need to make a virtual of Hyper-V machine to join the recovery Site of France. I can't determine exactly what license I need to achieve however. Any help would be appreciated.

  This issue is beyond the scope of this site (for consumers) and to be sure, you get the best (and fastest) reply, we have to ask either on Technet (for IT Pro) or MSDN (for developers)

• Issue license ROBO

  Hello

  Hoping someone can help me solve a license problem I have...

  We have several hosts of ESXi 5.1 existing in the branches (1 per branch), they are currently licensed using the free version of ESXi. I would now like to add these servers to a new Server Standard central vCenter 5.5 so they can be managed through that. For this we bought licenses of VM ROBO 125 (Standard) licence.

  My plan was just to add a hosts to vCenter both and change them to ROBO licenses however the first snag I hit was that you can't add a free licensed with ESXi host to vCenter, just enough so I thought I'd just change it back to the eval method to add it and then modify and utilize licensed ROBO. However, it seems that the eval mode has been fully utilized until the free license has been added so I can't change it back to the eval mode.

  I then noticed that we had a business license of 5.5 spare CPU 2 on the vCenter, so I added the host (change so that it uses this license during the import process). It worked and the host is now in vCenter using the company key 5.5 (although it shows as using a key Enterprise 5.1 of the same number), he didn't complain that the license key was invalid due to me using a key of 5.5 to a host 5.1 of the license.

  However when I went to change to use the ROBO button, I get a an error 'A specified setting is not correct: licenseKey " and it won't let me change the license ROBO. It is not clear to me why I am getting this error, but is there a specific problem with a host from a host permits licensed ROBO (I have not found anything about it)? I found this article VMware KB: licensing to a host ESXi fails with the error: a specified parameter is not correct: licenseKey which indicates that there might be a license version number issue however I would have thought I would have got this error when I tried to apply the license 5.5 host to the host in the first place but that has worked well. The ROBO in vCenter license just said v5 rather than v5.5 is therefore a specific point of ROBO license version and I need to downgrade to get a license for 5.1 or is going on here about something else?

  Thank you

  Nick

  I could be wrong, but this could be linked to the ESXi/vCenter Server version you are using. If I understand correctly the ROBO new licenses properly, by VM license requires ESXi and vCenter 5.5 Update 2 or later (see for example compare VMware vSphere Editions). In previous versions ROBO has been licensed by processor.

• Failed to get vCenter to keep in touch with the two servers virtual virtual ESXi 4.0.

  I have a laboratory setup where I have two servers virtual windows (Domian controller and vCenter) and two virtual servers ESXi 4.0, on a Dell sitting bare metal Server ESXi 4.0.  So basically four virtual servers on a server phyiscal.  I can't get the vCenter server to stay connected to the ESXi 4.0 servers.  We'll always stay connected, and the other will be disconnected.  When I try to reconnect to the disconnected from vCenter Server I get a connection failure.  If I go directly to the ESXi box (the one that I can't connect to vCenter well) I can connect correctly by using the identification information same accurate I use however vCenter.  I'm running while mode track except metal nu ESXi installation that has the free license installed on it.  This is a limitation of the performance of the software in trial mode.  I hope not that would be nice to do for study purposes and to show the customers in a sort of demo of the installation.  Can anyone help plese here?  It is a laboratory configuration I do to perform vMotion, so I practice for my VCP.  Thanks in advance.

• ESXi 4 license

  I updgraded an esxi 3.5 to 4. Access to the host by using the vSphere client, I get the following message:

  *

  VMware assessment notice *.

  Your evaluation license will expire in 59 days!

  * When the evaluation license expires, ESX host may stop to manage all the virtual machines in its inventory. In order to manage these machines, you need to upgrade your license to ESX host.

  *

  The word "may" in the message makes the message clear.

  Can someone clarify the situation what happens after the expiration of the evaluation period?

  ESXi 4 is as free as ESXi 3.5. Don't mix assessment and free license.

  Evaluation is equal to Enterprise more for 60 days, and simply enter the serial number provided by VMware for free.

  But on the vsphere client, I receive the message "your evaluation license will expire in X days. I don't have a key that I applied when installing ESXi.

  My understanding of the license is accurate.

  You should have received your license key in an email from vmware or you can find it by logging in and going to the ESXi download page.
