Should what type of data store I use in VSphere Hypervisor

Hello

I'm very new to VMWare VSphere Hypervisor, I downloaded the free version of VSphere Hypervisor ESXi 4.1 and began assessing the same thing on my HP DL360 G6 server.

I installed VSphere Hypervisor ESXi 4.1 on my HP DL 360 G6 server. I configured everything that is possible, but I'm really confused to choose the type of data store. My HP Server has 500 GB SAS hard drive.

Kind regards

Naushad Khan.

Take a look at the HP Quickspecs for your HP Server

from: http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/13235_na/13235_na.html

Battery HP series P with 512 MB Backed Write Cache upgrade 462967 B21
HP 1 GB Flash backup Cache
NOTE: Support on the Smart Array P410i controller only.
534562 B21

Doble check if one of these two options is included in your server (assuming you have the P410i controller).

    Dear Sirs:

    After many years, my S1400/103 still offers me a great service.
    I wander if I change the hard drive with a larger and possibly faster compatible unit.
    You will be please so kind and remind me of the motherboard/bios card limits, if any, about HD drive geometry?

    Any limitation applies to the speed of rotation of HD?

    My BIOS version is 1.30 (02/07/2002)
    Model number is PS140E-03CSQ-IT

    Thank you for your attention

    Usually, the BIOS on different computers Toshiba Notebook doesn t recognize and support all HARD drive sizes. The laptop supports hard disks from 20GB. So, in my opinion you might also try to insert a 60 GB IDE (ATA - 4) HARD drive.

    The rotation is not very important. I think that the laptop should support 4 200 rpm and 5400 RPM hard drives too.

  • How to specify what data store for use with OVFtool

    It drives me crazy! Way that you specify what data store to use when there are several?

    I ran exactly the same command on a box that had a data store and it worked fine (as expected). He created the folder of the virtual machine to the root of the SD and then pulled on the virtual machine of the FVO. However, with multiple it just says not: no datstore target specified. I tried 1 million combinations of?-ds = with hooks, without. It is said to be sometimes found in the inventory. I guess that's looking for a folder. But this cannot be so difficult?

  • VSA data store to use?

    I finished installing the VSA trial on a 2 host cluster. It works well, but I didn't know that there are 2 different available data warehouses. Does it matter that it used during the passage of my test virtual machines to the ASB? I usually tried keeping the VM with what I suppose is the host local esxi (1 host 2 host uses uses VSADs-1, VSADs-0).

    In addition, these data stores can be filled up completely and still be functional as a HA system?

    Thank you

    Hello

    It does not matter what VSA data store you use to move your virtual machines to the cluster of VSA, and HA should work even when the two VSADs are "almost completely filled" (if there is literally no space left then VMs can not not restart/market, which is true for any data store not only VSA-data warehouses).

  • What type of DVD can I use for backup of Windows?

    I'm wanting to make my backup of Windows and I was wondering what type of DVD media I use. Is it better to use a RW or one R type DVD.

    I have a HP Omni 220-1180qd, A5W89AV #ABA, Win7 64 bit running.

    I thought I read it can use CD, DVD, but I want to know which would be the best choice.

    Thanks for any help and any help is appreciated.

    Honestly, an external hard drive would be a better choice. The difference between-R and + R/W is only + R is "Writable" and + R/W is "Re-Writable. If you intend to do periodic backups, go with an external hard drive... If you intend to make backups very little, consider DVD + R discs.

  • Can I use VMware vSphere Hypervisor™ with vSphere Client?

    -Can I freely use for my business need VMware vSphere Hypervisor™, and what will be the difference with VMware vSphere Starter Kit?

    and

    -Can I use VMware vSphere Hypervisor™ with vSphere Client software for free?

    Yes - it is freely permitted, but he he has limits and lack of features compared to the vSphere Essentials kits. Another thing to note is the absence of vCenter Server to manage multiple ESXi hypervisors with the free version. The backup API are, in my opinion, one of the main obstacles to the use of this.

  • Cancellation of the assignment and reassign the data store by using different LUNS that datastore has not appeared.

    Hi all

    I have a data store after vdisk1 I have not assigned the vdisk to data store and reread the esxserver, the data store has disappeared.

    Again, I assigned the vdisk using the same number of logical unit as before and reread the esxserver, datastore appeared again return.

    But if I use a different assignment vdisk lun and on a new analysis of data store does not appear.

    Can someone tell me if the LUN must be even to see the store of data back again.

    If so why. ?

    Is there a vmware documentation to substantiate this claim.

    concerning

    Neela

    What do you mean by vdisk1?  The data store are stored as metadata on the LUN, when is formatted VMFS.  If you remove the LUN the VMFS is sitting on, then Yes, the data store will disappear.  If you only remove the vmdk who lives on this data store, then no, the data store must remain as it is, and you should be able to move the vmdk on the data store as needed.

    In the manuals of the user to the page 29 s, I found the info you need active 3D glasses with the FPT-AG03 part number.
    To be honest I m wondering really none of them came with yor TV.

    In any case, use this part number and you can separately order 3D glasses.

    Good luck and enjoy your 3D TV.

    Companies can almost certainly view or the other guy, but a pdf file

  • vCenter showing this vm in two data stores (a used display 0.00 B of 12.66 GB space)

    I have a couple of VMs that according to vCenter are present in multiple data stores. In all cases a data store would be showing 0.00 B of xx.xx GB used space.

    Is there a way to fix this? All I can think is that at some point the virtual machine could have migrated from one to another data store. It's never been renamed; Among the stores of data has no file like below...

    Your virtual machine based on the list of files, runs from snapshot and maybe the State of the virtual machine before taking the snapshot has been using the ISO on the old data store. If you can, try to remove the snapshot and the reference to the old data store will be deleted.

  • Data store space used not maching between VMWare and 3PAR

    Hello world

    I have a strange behavior between our environment VMWare and 3PAR storage system.

    I checked each data store of our cluster and for each of them, the space used in vSphere Client does not match the size of the user 'used' their volume associated with 3PAR.  The value displayed in VMware is higher.

    For example, our data store named DS03 has space around 1 TB in VMWare.  And when I checked in the Console of 3PAR, I see that the volume created for this data store has a size of the user 'used' 722 GB.

    While doing some research, I came across this post: ability to store data about the free space is not the same thing in VMware and 3PAR

    But the problem I encounter is quiet different. It's the opposite. I do not understand why the displayed value is higher in VMWare...  We are also running vSphere Server version 5.1.0

    Any advice? Ideas?

    Thank you very much.

    It's the ASIC 3PAR inline zero detection function stripping zeros of incoming data until they land on the disc. Www.3parug.com try this happens a lot.
