running in vCenter Server, ESX, how clean the vCenter host?
I hope that the topic of the thread makes sense somehow.
We have vCenter Server works like an ESX VM, for now on local storage, but eventually it can be moved to the SAN storage.
To clean up our ESX host, we use Update Manager.
How does the VUM to sanitise the host that is running the vCenter Server VM?
What should I do to have AUVS to clean up the host that runs the vCenter Server VM that is running VUM?
Thank you, Tom
If everything works on local storage, you can simply make your updates via esxupdate on the command line.

Run OEM Windows Server on hypervisor on the same hardware?
(1) get physical server which includes licensed OEM for Windows Server.
(2) wipe the drive and install a hypervisor, such as the independent (free) version of Hyper-V
(3) install copy OEM of Windows Server on the virtual machine running on the hypervisor
Is this legal, in what concerns MS licenses, and there will be problems with activation? I have scoured the internet looking for the answer and have determined that it is absolutely not possible. And I also determined that it is absolutely possible. In fact, nobody seems to know for sure. Everyone here knows for sure?
Yes, you can, and Dell tells you how (licenses are different for 2003, so this applies to the 2008 and subsequent versions). You can even install OEM 2008 on the physical server, and then install it as a virtual server, as long as the physical instance is only used to manage the virtual instance (Hyper-V), the Hyper-V hypervisor or other free/independent is not necessary. Each edition (Standard, Enterprise, etc.) is a license for a different number of virtual instances.

DHCP server virtualized inaccessible by the physical host computers
Hello.
I set up a DHCP under VMware Server 2. It is accessible by the virtual machines on the same host, but not by physical machines on the network. They can ping its IP address, but do receive any DHCP offer at the start of it. Are there additional configurations that I have to look? The VMware networking is configured in bridged mode.
Thank you.

New to ESXi - how ftp the ESXi host files?

How to clean the dust out of my retina 4 k.

When I had a PC, it's simple, open the case and use a compressed air to blow off the dust, but on this model, it does not have this option. I found nothing on the maintenance of this device.

How to tie a VM exclusively to 1 of the 4 physical NIC on the VM host?
Hey guys, I have essential Vsphere (not essential more), and I'm trying to figure out how tie/link a virtual machine running a mail server to one of the 4 network cards on the VM (Dell R510) host. I try to put/run this VM (e-mail and Web server) through my firewall DMZ port, so I would link the virtual machine to one of the network cards unused (only 2 are active by grouping network adapters).
So far, I have looked through of the "networking - > Hardware" in the configuration of the host and see all my virtual machines are under 'VM Network '. I tried to change the settings of "VM Network" to make the 3rd and 4th nic unused, but when I try a make a another network of virtual machine (VM Network 2) there automatically all NICs in it. There seems to be no way that create a network of vm with just the network cards that I want. If anyone of you knows different let me know where I was wrong, or if you know another way I should do please let me know. Thanks for your time.
You do not want to create a vDS. What you need to do is to create a second standard virtual switch with an uplink to the desired network and virtual machine port group.

Installed the new host of the cluster issue
I have currently two hosts that are in a cluster - I installed a new esxi server to add to this cluster.
1 set up the vswitch for grouping etc... as the other guests
2. cannot see other data stores.
You are using an iSCSI device, I guess? ESX material for the new host is right for the existing hardware? If you want to disable the unused adapters, which must be done in the BIOS.

abstractWSDL points to the physical host name when using URL loadbalanced
Document tracking "Oracle® Fusion Middleware Enterprise Deployment Guide for Oracle SOA Suite 11 g Release 1 (11.1.1) E12036-04" to implement soa suite 11 g PS2 in two node cluster environment.
Hostname SOA physical server (SOAHOST1 & SOAHOST2)
More SOA is configured with the virtual host name (SOAHOST1VHN1 & SOAHOST2VHN1 Port: 8001) and loadbalancer URL is http://soa.mycompany.com:7777.
Successfully completed installation and the steps of post-installation as update callbackServerURL and serverURL to http://soa.mycompany.com:7777
Also updated HttpServerURL as http://soa.mycompany.com:7777.
Composite SOA successfully deployed to the cluster from jdeveloper soa and tested control of Fusion middleware 11g (EM) webservices. And his works fine.
When I goto page to Test Composite, the WSDL and endpoint URL appear as expected is http://soa.mycompany.com:7777 / soa-infra/services/default/ccValidation/getStatusByCC? WSDL and http://soa.mycompany.com:7777 / soa-infra/services/default/ccValidation/getStatusByCC
But when I access the WSDL in the abstractWSDL browser is having hostname of the server that is mentioned below. Cause this problem by calling this webservice of some other jdeveloper 11g bpel processes. When I enter the url http://soa.mycompany.com:7777 WSDL / soa-infra /... in Web service activity (after placing the activity in the corridor of "External References") and wire BPEL to webservice, WSDL url in webservice is changed to http://soahost1.mycompany.com:8001 / soa-infra /... and wiring is faulty.
Since soa suite managed server is configured with the virtual host name, the wsdl file is accessible only by using their virtual hostnames (SOAHOST1VHN1 & SOAHOST2VHN1) and load balancer url. Access WSDL using the physical hostname soahost1 would result in "Page not found" error. Why Jdeveloper isn't able to wire bpel with webservice component.
Question:
Is there any configuration that I need to change for this problem?
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards
Kumar

ESXi/ESX host disconnects vcenter Server 60 seconds after the connection
Hello guys,.
I recently made some changes to my VMware Lab.
I'm under vCenter 5.1 with several hosts of ESXi 5.1. My vCenter ran on one server ESXi 5.1 until I recently migrated there in a window of Windows 8 running VMware Workstation 9. The vCenter is running normally and I am able to add hosts in stock, but they disconnect after approximately 60 to 90 seconds. I believe that this issue is that the heart beats that are sent by the host do not reach the vCenter (port 902), I think that it is similar to the issue discussed in the following KB:http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1029919
Here are my questions:
1. the article describes download wireshark and run scripts. Is there an easier away from do? I'm literally just checking this single port of the ESXi host, there is no equivalent for telnet from an ESXi host?
2 VMware Workstation 9 block ports or run its own firewall any? Since this vCenter worked perfectly when running on the host ESXi 5.1 we know this isn't a firewall on the virtual computer problem, I have also checked the Windows 8 machine running VMware workstation and have verified that the windows firewall is disabled. Windows firewall is not the issue.
Thank you
Duncan.
Just a quick question. A fact change of IP address of the server vCenter with migration of VMware Workstation? Maybe http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1008030 is related to the question!

How to remove or clean the server taken out of service/absence list
In the "Server" application, whenever it is launched, it displays a list of servers that have either been downgraded or does not exist (eg..) (local).
Is there a way to clean this list?
Quit the application server, and then open the XML file
~/Library/preferences/com. Apple.Server.v4.plist
with a text editor like BBEdit/TextWrangler or with nano in the Terminal. (the file is always named v4 - even if your.app is v5.x)
In this file, you will find a beginning of area with the key 'recent servers"followed by a table, then a dict for all servers in your list.
