Several Host Isolation

• HA retry time host isolation?

  Suppose the network breaks for some a host and host isolation response is stopped. After 12 seconds he will make his test of isolation, then will launch to stop the virtual machines running on the host.

  Other hosts will detect the host missing after 15 seconds and try to start them. However, because virtual machines very, probably not even to stop the locks on files are in place. Let's say that according to the workload inside the guest, it will take all of 20 seconds to several minutes to make a gradual stop. (I know there is a sunset that goes off after 5 minutes).

  But my question is, how long and how often other hosts will try to restart the VMs system which vmdk files become available one after the other?

• Deploy multiple virtual machines on several hosts evenly?

  Hello people!

  I wrote a small script to deploy many virtual machines on several hosts at random.

  But I would rather deploy a virtual machine to each host in a table and then start over again until the number of virtual machines to deploy exhausted.  Distribution of the burden of deployment as evenly as possible.

  Anyone have a suggestion?  Example of nested loops?

  

  PowerShell beginner, here.

  Thank you

  One way to do this is with the modulo operator (%), something like this

  $numVMs = 11

  $tgtEsx = get-Cluster "Westcreek | Get-VMHost-name z420 *.

  1.. $numVMs | %{

  [New-VM-name 'Test $($_)' $tgtEsx[$_%$tgtEsx.Count - VMHost]

  }

• The host Isolation response

  Hello

  Can I know what is "host isolation response '.

  Thank you

  Prashant

  In short: ESXi hosts running in a HA cluster communicate with each other by sending heartbeats. If a host does not receive the heartbeat of the other hosts more and also cannot each address isolation it triggers the response of isolation.

  For more information on HA, please take a look at http://www.yellow-bricks.com/vmware-high-availability-deepdiv/

• Host isolation response Question

  So, there were a few questions recently in our company on the host isolation response works in vCenter server 4.1.  Given the descriptions on the options available to the virtual machine power on or at the bottom of the current virtual machine, how HA determines that an isolated host is really isolated and running compared to completely failed (offline)?

  Can someone explain in detail a bit more technical that what the VMware article pages kb explain works host isolation response?

  Reading of how insulation host configurations can be defined, if you set the parameters of insulation "leave the virtual machine running", in case of total failure of host (offline) the other cluster hosts not to try the virtual machine online on another host?  And it is recommended to set the response of isolation to "turn off" so that the other hosts in the cluster can bring the virtual machine online?

  I still don't understand how a host can be determined as 'remote' from the 'offline '.  Isolation is simply the communications network have failed and are virtual machine always happily along on the isolated host.  A host simply default and past in offline mode (power failure Physics for example) is a completely different scenario.  Locks are not released correctly (not be able to any type of response of isolation configuration) and the virtual machine is not running on the host offline

  To the HA cluster if communication is lost to a node of the cluster assumes that the node has failed and will be Jean-Marie to restart the virtual machine on nodes in the cluster of rremaining - locks are constantly updated so if the host is not responding is rather isolated that failed he'll again be refreshing locks on the VMDK files. and virtual machines does not start - it is this feature which allows the AP to work - because with what you describe HA would never--work

  In the scenario were the host disconnects and the virtual machine is not running and the response of isolation is set to "leave the virtual machine running" how other hosts in the cluster determin the host is really low?

  The other guests guess always the isolated host is really down and try to restart the VMs - isloated host system is the machine that will follow response of isolation parameters - either the vms on power or powered by letting off the coast

• host isolation question

  When ESX host is isolated from the network? Once, he loses the Service Console or the management network WLAN?

  Network isolation occurs when:

  • Host online cannot receive heartbeat of the other primary guests AND

  • The impossible host isolation ping address

  Although your always up and running Layer2 switch and your dependent hos-to-host communication on the basis of the existence, of course network isolation switches will happen.

• The host Isolation response / loss of iSCSI connectivity - what if scenario

  The other thread on automatic shutdown made me think at our facility:

  1. when our building lost power, we lose cooling and networking, but remains on our servers/UPS systems, as they are connected to a backup generator.

  2 Yah, so, it's not good, cooling is lost, and the servers are will heat up, then we must begin to stop them until the coolant has been restored.

  Our 2 ESX systems connect to our SAN via iSCSI - with the lost power, the SAN and the ESX servers are no longer speaks, so I turned off our ESX servers, until the coolant has been restored, as no negative consequences on the correct virtual machines?

  With the connection of networking\iSCSI lost between ESX servers and SAN, that State will be our being for most Windows virtual machines?  They're going to be trashed?  Or ESX has some kind of verification in place for this type of ailment?

  In our current situation, what would be the recommended host Isolation response parameter?

  Thanks for any idea,

  Chad

  It shouldn't - but this will depend on all wht that the VM, the operating system and the application were doing at the time of the accident-

  With the connection of networking\iSCSI lost between ESX servers and SAN, that State will be our being for most Windows virtual machines? They're going to be trashed? Or ESX has some kind of verification in place for this type of ailment?

  ESX does not check this condition - from your virtual machines is on the iSCSI SAN you will find crashed.

• several hosts aaa server for authentication vpn

  ASA5510 - 7.2 (1)

  Using the following configuration, I try to have several radius servers configured for authentication backup in case of failure of the primary vpn. This seems to work ok. But once the main server upward when the asa will begin to use it again. The release of "aaa-Server 172.25.4.20 host" said

  Server status: FAILURE, server disabled at 08:04:25.

  How do reactivate you it?

  You can add the option in the Group aaa-server:

  "reactivation in timed mode.

  This causes a dead server is added to the pool after 30 seconds.

  The following link has some good info on the options available. I suggest looking for the doc for the "reactivation".

• vCenter 6 web gui - host isolation response

  Hello

  I was looking at the option of isolation of host and then noticed that he not there no "leave it on" option on vcenter 6 web gui (version 6.0.0 2656761). However, "leave it on" option is still available on the client. As you can see from the screenshots, I chose the option "leave on" on the heavy and used customer "turn off and restart the virtual machines ' option on web gui.

  I really appreciate if someone provides the details to clarify my confusion because I'm not sure what settings will apply in case of isolation of the host.

  
  

  Thank you

  AFAIK the "leave it powered on" in c# client is now called as "Disabled" in the Web Client, which means nothing do, don't react not if the host gets isolated.

  You say that you set the value "leave powered we" in c# client and then when you check the settings for the cluster in the Web Client, it displays "Power Off and restart VM?

  If so, no refreshing or reconnect to the web client result by displaying "Disabled" in the web client?

  I hope this helps.

• Host Isolation response - VM Shutdown / Restart

  Gents,

  I couldn't find answer to my question myself so maybe you can help me.

  Let's say we have cluster HA VSphere 4.1 with the default settings. On hosts loses the connection to the network and all the HA primary agents start 15 sec count down. The host of problem also begins his 15 sec timer and after 12 seconds, it tries to ping the default gateway and does not answer. So he decides that he is isolated. If the network connection is not restored within 15 s primary HA officers decide that host problems failed and try to restart the virtual machines, but they can do VMS files are always locked by host problem which just initiated the process of virtual machine downtime after 15 s time of isolation.

  So my question is how that VMs are restarted then if they are not be restarted the first time? Primary HA officers constantly try to restart on alternate hosts?  They try always to restart virtual machines even if the host of the problem can't stop for 300 s and then power off? This missing part of information is really boring

  Would be very grateful for any useful information.

  All this kind of thing is also explained by the way in my next book! Should be available through my blog in a week.

• HA sensitivity of host isolation

  Hello

  I was wondering if it is configurable to meanings?

  When you test the abduction of a switch of my kernel stack, I found that battery restarted in response, resulting in a failure full of about a minute.  This is why I really need to configure somehow HA to react only after, say, five minutes for the isolation of the host.

  Thank you very much

  As I understand it, das.failuredetectiontime should be what you are looking for.

• Response of host Isolation and HA

  I was wondering what happens if your cluster 'Response of Isolation host' is set to "leave VM under tension" and you actually have a host fail.  HA will be able to distinguish between a host that is not visible on the network and let these VM under tension and a host that is down and restart these VM elsewhere?

  Thank you

  Yes, a failure of HA, other members can resume the lock that existed prior to the failure of the host for the virtual machine it was running.  In the case of a response of isolation, these locks are not erased, so when other hosts are trying to take over the lock, they are being denied and therefore stay up to the virtual machine and running on the response of isolated, as opposed to the caught locks if the host fails.

  Not the best description and I'm sure I've missed a step or two, but for all purposes, Yes, HA can make a difference between failure and isolation.

• cRIO several hosts

  Hi all

  is it possible to have a target of crio running a central VI that exchanges data with the host screw turns on different hosts?

  Thank you very much

  Harry

  You must create an exe of the target code and deploy it to the target then run only the codes of the host on different computers. Make sure that you don't have any dependency of the target code in your host code. The error you posted will happen only when you are already running a code on the target, and if you try again to deploy the code in the same target of another computer.

• Activation of the NAC HA puts several hosts and ASA with processor clocked at 100%

  I installed a NAC Manager and a NAC server in OOB without any problems, but when I configured the AP (high availability) with another server, my ASA and several guests in my network started work ant 100% of the cpu.

  I tried to configure each interface of the NAC on a single DMZ and the problem stops there.
