• Get-stat - disk for virtual machines on NFS data warehouses

  Hi all

  Through work for VMs on NFS data warehouses get-stat-disc?

  $myVM | Get-stat - disc

  Doesn't seem to work for VMs on NFS data warehouses, but that works for VMs on VMFS data warehouses.

  After a presentation of VMware to http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:h78Db7LqHcwJ:www.slideshare.net/vmwarecarter/powercli-workshop+%2Bget-stat+%2Bnfs & cd = 2 & hl = in & ct = Europeans & gl = at the & source = www.google.com.au

  «WARNING: NFS performance statistics are not available (to come in a future version of vSphere).»

  When these statistics are available for NFS data storage?

  Kind regards

  The answer is in the property of instance data that Get-Stat returns.

  (1) get-Stat ==> canonical name of the LUN on which disk the hard

  (2) get-Stat virtualdisk ==> The SCSI id of the virtual disk inside the VM

  (3) get-Stat data store ==> the name of the data store

  (1) you give statistics for view virtual machine i/o activity starting from the LUN. For a VM with several virtual disks on the same data store, this will display the total IO statistics. And it will also include i/o generated by another VM on the LUN as swap, Flash files related...

  (2) gives statistics for 1 specific virtual disk of your virtual machine

  (3) statistics of e/s of your VM to a specific data store. Interesting when you have a store of data with multiple extensions (multiple LUNS)

  I hope that clarifies it a bit.

• How to speed up the transfer of files to and from data warehouses ESXi

  Hi people!

  Our company has a large number of

  VMware ESXi 3.5 and 4.0 servers. (Note: this is not the free ESXi, the)

  Paid ESX Server.) They generally work very well for us. The only area of

  problem I have is to transfer files to and from data warehouses on

  the machines.

  Because we do not have the ESX Server paid, I can't

  use vMotion or VirtualCenter to transfer virtual machines from one location

  to the other. So, if I need to move a virtual machine to a different host,

  the only solution I have is to download the VM

  files of the database on a local or network drive and then download

  paste them into the new data store, using the vSphere Client. The problem

  with this is that I found it is extremely slow. This may take

  hours just to copy a virtual machine.

  Does anyone know of one

  best way to do that would reduce the transfer time?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  Use veeam fastscp 3.0 its freeware. You can connect n number of esxi server.

  You can move or copy directly from one server to another server...

• ESXi V5.0 U1 - activate SIOC on creating NFS data warehouses?

  I read on the IGCS implementation on our warehouses of NFS data because of a problem experienced by the following KB:

  http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/search.do?cmd=displayKC & docType = kc & externalId = 2016122 & sliceId = 2 & docTypeID = DT_KB_1_1 & dialogID = 669628658 & StateID = 1% 200% 20669648380

  I have opened a support ticket and have decided to allow the SIOC for our data warehouses, even if the support could not tell me if it was something I could do on the production.  My assumption would be that adding this additional configuration would not be a problem, although I have questions, confirming that.  Everyone helped SIOC on live production data warehouses?

  Thank you

  The f

  Yes, you can activate without risk IGCS to a data store active with running virtual machines.

• List virtual machines and their data warehouses

  I took a dagger to the list of all virtual machines in my VC with data warehouses where their VMDK:

  $report = @)

  $allvms = Get-VM

  {foreach ($vm to $allvms)

  $row = "" | Select VMNAME, DATASTORE

  $row. VMNAME = $vm.name

  {color: #ff0000} $row. DATA store = (Get - VM | get-data store)

  $report += $row

  }

  $report | Export-Csv "C:\vm_ds.csv" -NoTypeInformation

  No luck. I know that the problem is with the cndlet of get-data store, the file indicates the VMNAME column filled with virtual machines, as expected, but the column of report DATA store System.Object [].

  Any help would be appreciated.

  You are already in a loop through all the guests (the loop foreach in line 3), there is no need to get all customers with the cmdlet Get - VM (again) in the 6th line.

  You can just pass (i $vm) invites him to the cmdlet Get-data store on line

  System.Object [] entry in the CSV file is caused by the fact that the Export-CSV cmdlet does not know how to handle objects or arrays of objects.

  One solution is to loop through all the data store names that are returned.

  And keep the data store name in the property of the DATA store.

  The result is that there will be several rows in the CSV file to people with more than 1 data store.

  $report = @()
  
  $allvms = Get-VM
  foreach ($vm in $allvms) {
       $dstores = $vm | Get-Datastore
       foreach($ds in $dstores){
            $row = "" | select VMNAME, DATASTORE
            $row.VMNAME = $vm.name
            $row.DATASTORE = $ds.Name
            $report += $row

• The best location for vcenter VM and placeholder data warehouses

  Hello

  I have an SRM installation with 2 sites.  The sites are separated by metro trunk of layer 2 ethernet between the sites.

  Site has

  1 EqualLogic PS6100

  2 ESX servers configured as cluster

  There is a single data store volume over the San with all virtual machines in this cluster

  There is one instance of vCenter to this place located in the same data as the other virtual machines store

  There are also a few other volumes on the SAN used for the RDM disks in virtual machines

  I also created a small volume of 1 GB as a VMFS data store and have it mapped in SRM to use as a placeholder for a data store

  What are your thoughts on that?  Is this the best way?  I could use the local storage on the ESX servers?  Main VM can be used for fictional settings or my data store?

  SRM is installed on the same VM as vCenter

  MRS. uses SQL Express on the local vCenter VM

  vCenter also uses SQL Express

  Site B

  1 EqualLogic PS4100

  1 ESX Server, so no clustering

  There is a single data store volume over the San with all virtual machines running on ESX Server

  According to the requirements of the SRM, there is a separate instance of vCenter operating as a virtual machine, and it is not in bound mode.  Should it be? / Should it be?

  The number of volumes on the SAN and their goals is the same Site A, the only difference is the size of the volume is smaller because less machines virtual running on this site.

  Replication has been implemented and verified the bi-directional working.

  We use replication on Bay

  OK, here's the problem... When I do a recovery expected, the process stops all the virtual machines on this site that includes the server vCenter/SRM.  I guess that to happen because it's on the same database as my other virtual machines?

  If I run the recovery in emergency mode, vCenter is then moved to the other site and power.  Because the sites are layer 2 and on the same vlan, MRS. watch sites are connected by 2 instances SRM can meet eventhough they are now running on the same site.  This does not seem right to me.

  Can someone suggest a better configuration?

  Thank you

  Brian

  Hello

  There is one instance of vCenter to this place located in the same data as the other virtual machines store

  What are your thoughts on that?  Is this the best way?

  In addition to vCenter VMS residing on the store of data replicated, it's OK.

  I could use the local storage on the ESX servers?

  I think that you can, but it is not recommended, because it creates dependency on the availability of the single ESX host.

  Main VM can be used for fictional settings or my data store?

  I would not recommend this. This will create a mess on the data store. Continue to 1 GB placeholder data store you created and do not replicate.

  MRS. uses SQL Express on the local vCenter VM

  vCenter also uses SQL Express

  Consider that SQL express is adapted to the environment of very small size (don't remember the numbers now). Make sure that you do not exceed the limits.

  1 ESX Server, so no clustering

  There is a single data store volume over the San with all virtual machines running on ESX Server

  This host has sufficient capacity to run all the virtual machines together (Site A and Site B)?

  I recommend having two hosts for prallele and accelerate the recovery process (multiple virtual machines can be powered on simultaneously).

  According to the requirements of the SRM, there is a separate instance of vCenter operating as a virtual machine, and it is not in bound mode.  Should it be? / Should it be?

  You don't have to configure them in bound Mode. This is for ease of management only (license, roles and inventory)

  OK, here's the problem... When I do a recovery expected, the process stops all the virtual machines on this site that includes the server vCenter/SRM.  I guess that to happen because it's on the same database as my other virtual machines?

  Yep, do not put vCenter VM on the VMS data store and reproduce at all.

  If I run the recovery in emergency mode, vCenter is then moved to the other site and power.  Because the sites are layer 2 and on the same vlan, MRS. watch sites are connected by 2 instances SRM can meet eventhough they are now running on the same site.  This does not seem right to me.

  Do not replicate vCenter / SRM VM and that will not happen.

• Virtual machines on NFS data warehouses freeze when snapshots are deleted

  I'm running 3 ESXi 4.1 update 1 guest (essentials more license) with shared storage on a NetApp FAS2040 accessible via NFS. 5.2 PHD virtual is deployed for backups. Each time the backup is completed on a virtual machine and the snapshot is removed, the virtual machine in question freezes completely (not yet responding to pings) for 10 to 30 seconds. The issue is documented in the following VMware article:

  http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1031106

  However, while the article claims that the problem has been resolved in a fix, I persist it despite running on the last level of patch (build 433742). Is that all that I should have done after installing the latest patch? If the issue is not yet fixed, is there one solution other than to switch to iSCSI?

  According to Ko, the patch is ESXi 4.1 patch ESXi410-201104402-BG contains vmware-tools. One thing to try is maybe upgrade your vmware tools in the virtual machine? (I don't know if you have upgraded)

• Migration and instant data warehouses

  I inherited a network of ESX 3.5 in a remote office. This network has 3 data stores, which only has 2 GB of free space. Virtual machines are not patches with current service packs, etc. I tried to migrate a virtual server computer to another that is connected to a larger data store, but I got an error that a file not found DPP-Lab702-000006 - delta.vmdk. I don't see no - delta files in the data store for this virtual machine. What is a good source to learn the inner workings of VMware and how I get rid or consolidate snapshots so I can move some virtual machines for free space.

  Thank you very much, Mike...

  Hello and welcome to the forums.

  The best snapshot info that I know longer series of Eric Siebert searchvmware.com - other than that, look for documentation of VMware ESX 3.5.  It's really some of the best documentation of the software you will ever run across.

  Good luck!

• Newbie question: list the Configuration of virtual machines and data warehouses

  Hello

  I'm new on using powercli how to list all virtual machines in a certain data center, their memory, Procs and what data warehouses they are on.

  I know you can use get - vm | Select-object name, NumCPU MemoryMB but if I add DatastoreIdList as well, it doesn't seem to work.  What Miss me

  Thank you very much

  Laurence

  That's right, you could do

  Get-VM MyVM | Select Name,@{N="DS";E={[string]::join(',',($_.datastoreidlist|%{(Get-View -Id $_).Name}))}},Description |
      Export-Csv "C:\test.csv" -NoTypeInformation -UseCulture
  

  Just look at whether the separator for CSV is be a comma in your culture, you probably need to adjust the separator in the Join method!

• Cannot write to a NFS data store

  Hello

  I built a test environment to test ESXi 5.5 u1 to work. I am able to mount the database, browse the data store, but cannot write to it. I mounted on a different host of production and can't read/write very well.

  This happens on both servers in this test configuration. I must add, they used to be the ESX 3.5 hosts and had no problem with NFS data warehouses. I used the same NIC cards to create similar vSwitches. Trunking VLAN on our physical switches has not changed.  The two test servers have access to reading/writing/root for NFS mounting in our SAN (same as before IPs and it worked).

  Any suggestion would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  Well I guess you've got most of the standard things cleared here.

  I fall on this blog:

  http://emcsan.WordPress.com/2011/09/01/VMware-cant-write-to-a-Celerra-RW-NFS-mounted-datastore/

  Which seems to point to a few additional authorization with the EMC Clariion problems that must be addressed to make NFS work in later versions.  This gives a whril on your new hosts and let us know.

• Best practices for a NFS data store

  I need to create a data store on a NAS and connect to some servers ESXi 5.0 as a NFS datastore.

  It will be used to host virtual machines less used.

  What are the best practices to create and connect a datastore NFS or networking and storage view bridges in order to get the best possible performance and decrease is not the overall performance of the network?

  Concerning

  Marius

  Create a new subnet of layer 2 for your NFS data warehouses and set it up on his own vSwitch with two uplinks in an active configuration / eve of reunification. Uplink should be variously patches in two distinct physical switches and the subnet must have the disabled bridge so that NFS traffic is not routable in other parts of your network. NFS export can be restricted to the IP address of storage host IP (address of the VM kernel port you created for NFS in the first step), or any address on that subnet. This configuration isolates traffic NFS for performance, ensures the security and redundancy. You should also consult your whitepapers of storage vendors for any specific recommendation of the seller.

  Data warehouses can be made available for the guests you wish and you can use Iometer to compare PAHO are / s and flow rate to see if it meets your expectations and requirements.

  You use literal strings instead of the content for the files. Assuming that the contents of the file is a list with one entry on each line, you need to change your code actually look at the data, for example:

  $oldstores = get-content "C:\powercli\OldDatastore.txt".

  foreach ($path in $currentdatastores.split (";"))) {

  If (-not ($oldstores - contains $path)) {}

  ...

  }

• Do we need data warehouse, if we only create dashboards and reports in obiee?

  Hello! I'm new to obiee.

  My organization has decided to build their reports and dashboards using obiee. I am involved in this mission, but I don't have in-depth knowledge he obiee.  My question is what do we need to have the installation of the data warehouse? Or I just need to just install obiee by the creation of a repository, and then by creating a data source in publisher bi and then create dashboards or reports?

  I'm confused too please help me in this regard. Please share any document or link where I can easily understand these things. Thank you

  Please share any document or link where I can easily understand these things. Thank you

  OBIEE is a software to run without a good understanding of its complex concepts. I would really recommend attending a training course, or at least a book (for example this or this). There are MANY items of general blog on OBIEE, many of which are of poor quality and are all step-by-step guides on how to do a particular task, without explaining the overall situation.

  If you want to use OBIEE and to make it a success, you have learned to understand the basics.

  To answer your question directly:

  -BI Publisher is not the same thing as OBIEE. It is a component of it (but also autonomous available). OBIEE makes data accessible through 'Dashboards' which is made up of 'Analysis', written in the answers tool. Dashboards can also contain content BI Publisher if you want

  -OBIEE can report against the many sources of different data, one or more data warehouse and transactional. Most of the OBIEE implementations that perform well are based against dedicated DW, but is not a mandatory condition.

  -If reports against a DW real or not, when you build the repository OBIEE you build a "virtual" data warehouse, in other words, you dimensionally model all your business in one data set of logic diagrams in Star.
