• vCenter / Orchestrator configuration problem

  Hello

  While the implementation of vCenter Server and Orchestrator configuration, I had trouble to finish. I am not able to find any user who is a member of the Group of Directors vCO to fill the Plug-ins section which is necessary to Boot Options. The other Orcestrator server cannot run to add a user in the Administration Group (assuming that this is the place that it should be done) wihout fill first the Startup Options section in the Web Configuration.

  The back Orchestrator Installation and Configuration Guide not clearly how do a user member of the management group until the administrator has started, however, it says "enter the credentials of a user who is a member of the group administrator Orchestrator." I tried the default user (vmware), the user I set up in the pub for vCenter Server service running and the local administrator, but he keeps giving the error «Bad credentials for the installation of the plugin.» "Unable connect user: vCenter, unknown user.

  Any help is appreciated how go about this situation.

  Hi Martell,

  I'm sorry to hear that you are having problems with the configuration.

  Let me see if I could erase this until relations are here.

  1. the user name that you used to connect to the Configurator is not related to any configuration in the configurator.

  2. the user of the plugin in the plugin name must be in the ad group that you specified in the LDAP tab under group admin vCO.  Here is my config of the sample for the vCO admin group: "CN = vco - admin, CN = Users, DC = pm - vco, DC = local.

  I guess that if you add the service account used by running vCenter Server to the group admin vCO listed above you will be ok.

  Let us know if it works.

• VMware vCenter Orchestrator Configuration problem

  Hi guys,.

  My company has just installed VMware vCenter Orchestrator and we try to create a new host to vCenter server with version 5.0.1.

  Can someone point me to documentation that shows me how to configure the web page in the print screen attached?  Or can someone please tell me what is needed in the empty fields, etc.?  When we try to enter info, we get alerts of service of red light of the vCenter Server tab and the tab startup options.  Both give us a red circle indicating a problem.

  Thank you!

  A free IP address? Oh... No, this plugin configuration is not actually CREATE a vCenter for you, it allows you to configure the vCO to speak to an EXISTING vCenter server you must already have a server vCenter configuration somewhere and you must use the FULL domain name or address IP of this server in this configuration.

• No vCenter Orchestrator connecting to vCenter 5.1

  I configured the parameters required in VMware vCenter Orchestrator Configuration via https://localhost:8283 including a separate SQL DB. When I log in the Web Client (5.1) Select vCenter Orchestrator of stocks, that I'm not able to specify a vCenter Orchestrator by choosing change configuration, and of course there is no available workflows, have I missed a step?  IM can not see the plugin in the vsphere Client GUI

  Yes, SSO is necessary regardless of the device you're using, or one based on Windows Installer. When you configure SSO in vCO, it fits in the SSO (vCenter) server so that integration takes place...

• Error 'Incompatible Server Version' @ Orchestrator Client log in

  We have recently completed ad vcenter 4.0 to 4.1 upgrade.  During the upgrade, Orchestrator does not get installed automatically - probably because he wasn't there to upgreade.  We use not Orchestrator before but wanted to start using after upgrade from 4.0 to 4.1.

  I found and linked the Orchestrator article 4.1 of the DVD Installer.  All went very well.  Configured LDAP connected to Active Directory and tested.  The database created on the MSSQL remote server very well.  Needed for users and groups created in AD and specified for Orchestrator Setup. No installation no issues at all.

  After setting Orchestrator to run as a service (on Win 2003 R3 64 bit server) and start the service, I launched the customer and tried to connect.

  The client connects to Orchestrator at a certain level.  If I enter the wrong credentials, I get an error 'user or incorrect password '.  However, if I use valid credentials, the client responds by "Incompatible Version of the server" in the lower left corner of the logon dialog box.  So what shit server is the wrong version, I ask?  Only, it's there and don't answer me. FYI, I installed the 32-bit version of the Orchestrator client on a different physical computer inside an XP virtual machine (to use a 32 bit OS) just to see.  He also noted "incompatible Server version' when trying to connect.

  vCenter orchestrator and the two 4.1 - straight out of the zip named VMware-VIMSetup-all - 4.1.0 - 259021.  My ESX servers are all 4.1.0 320092.  Windows Server running vcenter & orchestrator is 2003 R2-64 bit.

  My theory is that the version of Orchestrator comes with this package (as a separate installable application) 4.0 and 4.1 not.  I say this because the plug-in configured in configuration orchestrator shows only a plug-in for 4.0.0 and not 4.1.0.  That's what I think the mistake is trying to tell me... «I'm an orchestrator of 4.0 and I not connect to a vcenter 4.1.»  The vCenterOrchestrator.exe inside the zip referenced in the previous paragraph is 205 705 bytes in length and is dated from 14/05/2010.

  Anyone can check if above Orchestrator Installer is 4.0 or 4.1?  If it is 4.1, do you have ideas about this error "incompatible Server version?  It must be rare.  Google could not find a thing on this string of words about Orchestrator.  A research of the community forms was also discussed in white.  So this post.

  Thanks is advance for any insught!

  Hi Tim,.

  I tried the version that you specified in your message, for example 259021. What I've discovered, is that on my x 64 OS the correct Orchestrator is installed w / VC 4.1 plugin (check install directory\app-server\server\plugins\o11nplugin-vsphere41.dar).

  So the facility, point of view, I think that everything should be ok. On the other hand, given that you have already installed the 4.0, you may have its instance orchestrator as well, for example you have 4.0 and 4.1 instances (in Program files and program files (x 86) directories).

  Could be a workaround:

  -Save your 4.0 installation. This facility must be in program files (x 86) \VMware\Orchestrator). To check this check the version.txt file.

  -Save your 4.1. installation as well. This facility should be in the files\VMware\Orchestrator program.

  -Once you have save your facilities export your configuration of 4.0: in the VMware vCenter Orchestrator Configuration go to the switchboard, the export Setup

  -Then, uninstall version 4.0. To do this, go to the \Uninstall_vCenter <4.0 install="" directory="">Orchestrator and run the uninstaller are there.

  -As a result, you must have only 4.1 installation located in above directory

  -Run the orchestrator for 4.1 configuration and you will see that the vCenter server plugin points to the good version 4.1.

  -You can import the configuration that you have already done in main menu-> import configuration.

  I hope this helps.

  Kind regards

• VMware vCenter Orchestrator Server service cannot be started

  After doing a clean install on the build version 5.1.1 2942, the VCO service will not start. All points configurations are green, VC to the top and running, the service account used for the service of a member of the local administrators. The event in the system log id reported as 7024, below error text:

  VMware vCenter Orchestrator Server service stopped with the error service particular incorrect function...

  If anyone has an idea, please advise. Thank you.

  Thanks for the tip. I was able to start the service by stopping the Foglight Quest agent running on the box first, then by restarting VCO. The article stresses that increase the RAM would help, however the virtual machine has been set to 10 GB, with abundance available for the JAVA virtual machine, but I always saw the issues mentioned in the wrapper.log file.

• Service server vmware vcenter orchestrator on local computer started and then stopped

  Hello

  I'm unable to start the Server service of vco on Windows 2008 R2 machine. If I try to restart the service it displays the following error;

  "Service server vmware vcenter orchestrator on local computer started and then stopped. "Some services stop automatically when not in use by other services or programs.

  Can someone give me the solution for this?

  Thank you

  Radhika

  First check the configuration of the vCO application and that all green lights. If this isn't the case difficulty what the problem is.

  If everything is green, see the server.log file and look for FATAL / ERROR.

• 4.1 Data Migration tool - "error: failure of the backup of the configuration of the vCenter Orchestrator.

  While following this KB article, I came across an error.  I googled a bit but it is really not a lot on that.  This process took me the better part of a month to get to this day.  Now all I have to do is migrate my databases and settings...  However, as with everything else I came against from 4.0 to 4.1 (and building a new server to do), nothing seems to be going my way with this project.

  Anyway, I executed the script of backup.bat several times and each time, it failed in the same place.  The error given is "error: failure of the backup of the configuration of the vCenter Orchestrator."  The log file has been attached.  I rebooted, made sure that all VMware services have been arrested and still no joy.

  Any help would be great!  If this isn't the case, I'll have to make another call to the support team.  I played with VMware products for years and I've never had to call until this project came.  In this month alone, I opened 4 tickets!

  I'm almost certain that this can be ignored without risk, especially if you do not use Orchestrator.  I recently made a 4.1 migration to another server and got the same error - I had any issues at all.

• VCenter Orchestrator Server - invalid connection login

  I 5.1.0 build 1123966 installed with Orchestrator on a separate virtual computer.

  When I go to set up the connection to a server vCenter Server, I can connect using the button 'Test connection' very well.

  However, Orchestrator reports an 'invalid login' all pages 'administer '.

  Details:

  User logs (I tried to share a single session - no difference)

  SSO is supported by Active Directory.

  RSA CERT is imported.

  The clocks are synchronized to NTP.

  Orchestrator is to get his Server vCenter license. (License server has been very well with the value of domain\user)

  User account is part of the vcoAdmins group.

  Username is currently defined as User@fqdn (also tried domain\user).

  Using SSL on port 443 /sdk path.

  I am confused and would appreciate any suggestions.

  -david-

  Ok. He tracked down but it's kind of weird.

  I had the Orchestrator account in the Group of vcoAdmins@system-domain linked to the AD account. (that is, the vcdAdmins@system-domain are included as part of the Group's user@my-domain)

  I gave up and added user@my-domain (same account, same area, same AD server)

  Orchestrator client is restarted.

  Alto! No problems.

• vCenter Server Linked Mode Configuration

  Buenos dias a todos,

  UNA pregunta: Se you can use/configurar el complement "vCenter Server Linked Mode Configuration" between various VC (verse 5) en Dominios different y SIN relaciones confianza?

  Hi all
  A question: you can use / set up the "vCenter Server Linked Mode Configuration" card from several VC (verse 5) in different domains WITHOUT trust relationships?

  Official documentation:

  Instances of server vCenter in a group of related modes can be in different areas, if the domains have a two-way trust relationship. Each area must approve other areas on which the server vCenter instances are installed.

  Kind regards

• Choose an account to use for the Orchestrator configuration

  There are 3 places where Orchestrator requires a specific, specify the installation user account:

  1. in "Orchestrator Configuration" tab "Authentication" - registration of the Orchestrator with SSO

  2. in "Configuration of Orchestrator" on the tab "License"-> "add a vCenter Server License.

  3. in the Orchestrator Client, under the workflow "to add an Instance of vCenter.

  
  

  If after all this has been implemented successfully by an employee who uses his user account AD for these 3 functions, then later an employee leaves and the account is removed from the AD, it will cause a problem with each of the above configurations that have been made?  Will be always registered orchestrator, under license, and vCenter added Instance?  Or things begin to break / stop working?

  
  

  Thank you!
  

  SSO should continue its work and license will continue to work until the service restarts... and the controls for the license with the vCenter server... I don't think that you will be able to install any new plugins if the account has disappeared, as well.

  My recommendation would be to use a service account is configured in Active Directory or SSO vSphere.

• How to create Self Service Portal in Vcenter Orchestrator? times

  Dear team,

  I want to create the Self Service Portal to reset user password in Active Directory in Vcenter Orchestartor. Could someone guide me for this

  Note: I installed Vmware Vcenter Orchestrator 5.5.

  I hope it would be only certain types of admins/helpdesk do PW reset because you must connect to the WebView in order to run the workflow... in any case, you can follow this tutorial for a Webview based in vCO:

  http://www.vcoteam.info/articles/learn-VCO/107-create-a-simple-VCO-self-service-VM-provisioning-Portal-part-3.html

  Regarding the other prerequisites:

  vCO must have the ad plugin installed and configured to use SSL when communicating your AD environment. It is a requirement for users created with passwords and resetting passwords.

  When you get to the step of the tutorial for mapping a workflow, you'll want to use the workflow to "Change password". This is a workflow of library Active Directory that are available after the installation of the plugin AD and the vCenter Orchestrator Server service restarts.

• vCenter Orchestrator 5.5 has no vCenter workflow in the library.

  Hello

  We simply configure vCenter Orchestrator in our vCenter Server to familiarize themselves with it.

  In vcenter Orchestrator client and vSphere Web Client, we do not have the vCenter workflow in the library.

  

  We have the same thing in the Web Client vSphere.

  Remove the vCenter Plugin and install it again and it does not work either. In the newspapers of vCo, we have nothing that speak the vCenter, PlugIn, except for installation.

  In our configuration page, everything is green:

  

  Anyone have any idea?

  Thanks for your help.

  Under plug-ins in your vCO Configuration page, make sure that the plug-in vcenter is actually active. Also, go in the troubleshooting of Setup page tab, and then in the right pane, click on the link that says "Reset current version". Once you have done this, restart the vCenter Orchestrator Server service. The restart should trigger a re - install the plug-in that is supposed to give rise to import the package for each plugin so that you have all the workflows library in the vCO Client
