Setup.pl running on the host with no existing data storage

I have a new environment, I'll put up: Dell Vmware 5.0 guest (s) and a 10 Gb Equallogic SAN PS61xx

I am the great Dell documentation and want to run setup.pl to configure my Vmware Vswitches, then install the DellMultipathing (MEM)

I installed Vsphere CLI on my workstation to mgmt and you attempt to run this command:

Setup.pl - installation - server = 172.19.0.203 - bundle = dell-eql-mem-esx5 - 1.2.0.365964.zip

This operation fails because there is no data presented to the host still store

I'm in the chicken and egg scenario, I need available storage to be able to connect to the storage!

How to do this? running off a VMA device would be different? (I think VMA runnign out of my workstation management using VMware Workstation)

Thank you

Looks like you have currently not iSCSI installation program.  The option - install option assumes iSCSI is already running.   You simply install the software.

In the user guide starting on page 7 is the use of setup.pl to configure iSCSI and then install MEM in addition to this.

Setup.pl - configure - bestpractices - server = hostname [-username = username]

[- password = password] - NIC = NIC1, NIC2,... - ips = IP1, IP2,...

[- vswitch = vswitchname]  [- mtu = mtu]  [- vmkernel = vmkernel_prefix]

[- netmask = masque_sous]  [- enableswiscsi]  [- nohwiscsi]  [- groupid = IP of the PS Group] [- vds]

[- logfile = nom_fichier_journal]  [- heart rate = IP]  [- chapuser = username]

[- chapsecret secret =]  [- vihost = vihostname]  [- viusername = viusername]

Kind regards

  • vCloud Director 5.1 prepare the hosts with a busy workload

    Hi, we have 3 hosts in a cluster of vSphere with vCenter 5.1 4. I'm planing to install the agent on the three hosts vCloud.

    My problem is there is now tons of virtual machines running on these 3 guests. If I followed the provider VDC Setup Wizard and simply add the credentials to root for these 3 hosts, it causes any failure to virtual machines running on the host? She will force guests to go into Maintenance Mode and cause the failure? Or vCloud will simply report failure because there are virtual machines running on these hosts?

    If vCloud will just report failures, I guess that I will then have the opportunity to prepare each host individually, which allows me to move a load of work to rest 2 hosts?

    Here's what I did: I followed the wizard configuration provider VDC and when reach the host preparation stage I put in the wrong password for guests. The preparation of the host has not of course. I then have the options to prepare each host. I think that I was just more careful here. Stage of preparation to host should stop if there is direct VM on the host.

  • Mac OS 10.8 VM cannot reach subnet VLANS / different from the host with Fusion 5

    I have a server of Mac Mini significantly improved, high-top of the range, operating behind a firewall, Zyxel USG.  As the host, the Mac Mini runs a server OS X 10.8 virtualized with VMware Fusion 5 (mainly as an e-mail server).  To avoid opening the ports directly to the host-MacMini and LAN1 to better customize security and settings area, I want to put the virtual machine on VLAN1.

    However, no package VLAN is pass to the virtual machine.  I tried two configurations:

    Home > VLAN1 in Network preferences > VMware Fusion set to network via VLAN1 bridge > comments "Ethernet" connects effectively to the VLAN1

    Home > (LAN1) Ethernet in Network preferences > set VMware Fusion to bridge network through LAN1 > comments > add VLAN1 to guest network preferences

    In both situations, * zero packets * make out of the VM/comments on VLAN1.

    My suspicion is that VMware Fusion 5 does not support packages VLAN marked.

    Advice/suggestions for how to get the virtual machine to join VLAN1 or really, just a different subnet?  Are there drivers tagging VLAN for VMware Fusion 5?

    The FIXED - partially, at least.

    It had to do with the package being truncated by VMware.  After I have configured VLAN1 on the host, and then in the hardware parameters, chose 'Jumbo Packet Size'.  Then I jumpered the VM via connection host VLAN1.  ALTO!  This works.

    However, trying to connect to the virtual machine as a direct customer of VLAN1 is always unsuccessful. The virtual machine which truncates the packets when it sends them between the host and the guest (and vice versa).  However, if tagging VLAN is the host to level (as I have it configured), then the virtual machine can communicate successfully on the VIRTUAL LAN.

  • SIT error 14104, dll runs on the host, but not on the target

    Hello

    I have problems of deployment dll (compiled in 2007 with Microsoft Visual C++ .NET 2003) Simulink in LabVIEW (2009 SP1). My target system is a desktop PC with LabVIEW Real-time 9.0 installed.

    I created a simple Simulink model which mulitplies an entry with a Gain and returns the result. I compiled using the nidll.tlc as a target file system.

    Then, I created a LabVIEW RT application that uses this DLL. I created exactly the same application as the host VI and VI target. On the host VI everything works fine. On the target VI, I get error SIT 14104.

    What I did to solve this problem? I followed the steps on http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/C7FF960E0A6C219A8625729600104615 . I have manually deployed the dll on the target computer. I used the suggested compiler. There is a lot of memory on the computer (RAM and HDD) target. And I'm not using a CRio system.

    Does anyone have an idea how to fix this error? I will attach the sample project labview and the MDL and DLL to this post. Don't forget to adapt the DLL-path if you test the program.

    Kind regards

    Thomas

    Well I found a solution.

    I had to deploy the DLL manually on the target, but not in ftp://IP_Address/ni-rt/system/ as the link above is said but rather in ftp://IP_Address/ .

    Problem solved.

    Kind regards

  • For a DMA FIFO running from the host to the 7976 is a data type that is optimum for PEP?

    For transmission to the host 7976, I can pack my data in say U64s or break up in U8s.  Y at - it a data type that will give the best rate?  Maybe based on the bus (SMU) or the implementation of RIO drivers behind the scenes?

    My experience is different.  Once, I did a load of tests with different widths DMA FIFO for FPGA and tested the throughput and latency.  If sending data via U8, U16 or U32 DMAs, I saw the same total transfer of bps.  My explanation for this?  Given that the width of the DMA is 32 - bit, LV little packaging in order to ensure that each part of the 32 bits is used.  This means that if you have a DMA U8, it will transfer at a time, 4 to DMA 2 both U16 or U32 DMA one at a time.  64-bit is divided into two individual transfers.

    Do not use FXP.  Even a 1-bit FXP is represented internally as 64-bit and will require TWO DMA transfers to an FPGA.

    Side fromt hat, U8, U16 or U32 makes essentially no difference because they are all packed 32-bit internally.

  • VSphere running on the host machine?

    Is it possible to run vSphere on my host machine to connect to itself?

    I have VMware ESXi 5.0.0 Release Build 469512

    It is not possible. We cannot install client vSPhere on ESXi.

    ESXi is not a shell or console on which you can install the vSphere Client.

    This is how it is designed. The host is dedicated to run ESXi. To manage ESXi, you must connect through a vSphere Client that is installed on a windows machine. Or add a vCenter Server host and manage through it.

  • Is there an api to get the info of the OS running on the host machine?

    My server is ESXi 4.1, and I can get this information from the property "name" object "AboutInfo.

    But, I can't get the information about the operating system running on the server except the 'osType'.

    However, when I use the command 'uname - a', I can get a long chain, "Linux 2.6.18 vcs - 164.ESX #1 Fri Apr 16 14:57:03 PDT 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux" for example, as a result.

    So, my question is that how I can the information of operating system as the above string?

    There are a few places to the VM guestOS.

    (1) when you create a virtual machine, you assign a guestOS type based on the list available in the API here - http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/vc-sdk/visdk41pubs/ApiReference/vim.vm.GuestOsDescriptor.GuestOsIdentifier.html#asianux3Guest. As you can see, it does not include something on a certain core, just the major release version. If you want to query to see what guestOS "configured" has been assigned to particular VM, you can take a look at its config info here - http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/vc-sdk/visdk41pubs/ApiReference/vim.vm.ConfigInfo.html

    (2) now, simply because you have assigned a unique guestOS, this does not mean that it be installed this particular operating system... It's bad because VMware did some things when it virtualizes this comments according to your selection. Another method of extracting the real guestOS leverages VMware Tools, if you have it installed and running within the guestOS, you can extract the BONE that is detected. You can find this information in the comments section that provides details of inside the guest - http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/vc-sdk/visdk41pubs/ApiReference/vim.vm.GuestInfo.html. As you can see, not only you can get the information of the OS, but you can get things like address IP, etc.. Remember that this only works if you have installed VMware tools.

    Now to give you an example where #2 would give better results than the #1. I installed a virtual appliance provided by VMware, the VM shell or it is configured OS has been set at Other Linux (64-bit) but when you query the information of the customer, the OS reported CentOS 4/5 (64-bit) , meaning that it really works. Again, you get only the type of operating system if VMware he understands and is able to detect it. You won't get details on the kernel version or updates/etc.

    If you need this level of granularity, you will need to extract directly from the guestOS. VMware another API called VIX which allows you to execute commands directly from the guest's use case is mainly on the management of comments. http://www.VMware.com/support/developer/VIX-API/

    Hope this helps

  • Can configure the server from the host with IP address

    Hello

    I want to configure a guest computer with 2 network cards, one for LAN private and one for the external LAN.

    Right now, the problem is that I don't have that 1 useable public IP I can use on the external network address.

    Which means that it's either I configure the public ip address on the NIC host or on the comment card.

    May I just know set network bridge on the guest computer and configure the external static public IP, and then click map NETWORK address of the host machine, I set up the ip address. Will this work?

    Please notify.

    If you mean that by disabling TCP/IP on the host, the guest computer can access external WiFi?

    Yes, if you use a Windows host, just uncheck the TCP/IP on the bridged card.

    Or use NAT, then both machines can connect to the internet with a single IP.

  • Target ball and ball over Active on the host with a lot of free memory

    Just at the moment where I think I understand the management of the ESX memory, something confuses me once again.  My understanding of the balloon pilot, is that when an ESX host has need of more memory to be allocated to other virtual machines as the VMKernel steals memory back from the virtual computer running.  However, I have a virtual machine which seems to indicate that the target of ball is well above what is memory 'Active', and the host ESX virtual machine running on a 6 GB of unused memory.  I think that this might have led this virtual machine to go into a State of forgetfulness once already, because I found it does not, only to discover that she used only 30% of CPU and 2 GB Active out of 6 GB of memory allocated, but making a ton of swap memory.  What gives?

    Why in the world of the balloon pilot would target memory on a VM running busy, when there is a lot of free memory available on the host, and why would be a beginning of comments Exchange when it uses only a fraction of the memory allocated to it and the host is sitting on the free memory pletty?  None of my other virtual machines have memory usage charts that look like this.

    This can happen even in the absence of resource pools. Check your settings of VM, "resources" tab and make sure that the unlimited checkbox that she checked on the memory and CPU...

  • Defragment.exe when running in the background with the scheduling of the task, it wil give me a sign that it has fulfilled the task

    Hello

    When I automate defragment.exe for monthly use then

    It wil run on the bottom. There wil I would like to know who is running and is it wil give me as a sign that the defragmentation task has been fulfilled.

    Thank you

    Johan

    I'm not sure about Windows 7, but Windows 8 has an alert if the task is failed 3 times in a row.  It is a notification directly from Disk Defragmenter.

    Although I'm sure you could look at the system, filtered to defragment the events and see Event Viewer when they all ran.

    I say that it is largely a design philosophy.  The user is notified only when there is a problem. When you start your car, you get a list of all the pumps which committed successfully. You are notified only when there is a problem and the rest of the time that you can just use the machine (the car or your PC) without interruption.
