• How can I customize the Thunderbird message columns to show the raw sender address (not the full name) and e-mail address "received for" which was used to reach me?

  I find more and more important to be able to see the actual email address of the sender rather than just displaying the name, because they do not usually show a company name - a domain would always be. Is it possible to customize the settings/write a file of script/tweak to add columns of name email & domain raw? When dealing with a number of people from the same company, it is difficult to order or nod thanks to a list of emails to find. I know also that 2 people with the same name to different companies and it is impossible to distinguish.

  Secondly, as an addition of associated column, since a number of e-mail aliases join it would be useful to have a column to display the "received for" part of the source of the message that reveals the real enamel used in the To/CC/BCC, which led to me. Once again can it be twisted or scripted?

  I have programming experience but did not Add ons, and would be open to a proposal which is to create a custom module if adding columns with custom values is possible like this.

• ESX host is listed in DVSwitch, but not in DVportgroups

  Hello

  I have the following in a CLuster (5.5 Vcenter, ESXi hosts 5.1) problem:

  I added a new ESX to the cluster (number 9 of ESX), then added 4 network cards to the DVSwitch (uses the LACP Protocol).

  In this DVSwitch I 2 DVportGroups / tag VLAN

  The problem is the host is listed in the tab "Hosts" in VCenter to level DVSwicth, but do not appear in the DVportgroups tabs (all hosts are listed here but not the last one..)

  vmk0 migrated successfully to the VLAN 1 St... but now, it appears limited to ""... I can migrate to the DVportGroup right... and VCenter says 'ok'... but nothing changes...

  I tried to migrate a virtual machine on the ESX (2nd VLAN) = > VM pings OK...

  So "technically" it works very well... but the ESX does NOT appear as members of DVportGroup.

  The problem appeared when I tried to deploy a vApp (antivirus) on the ESX... I'm stuck at the "select VLANS for the NETWORK card"... There is no VIRTUAL LAN in the list... (because the ESX host is no not part of any dvportgroup..)

  I tried "adding the ESX to the DVportGroup" after having asked for credentials, VCenter says 'ESX is already part of the pole '...

  Someone had this strange behavior?

  What can I do?

  Help!

  Best regards

  S

  I had a similar case, where the hosts have been posted under DVS, but not under DVS exchanges.

  A restart of vCenter Service fixed the problem. However, I was not deploy any TIME or such.

• Disconnected ESX host cannot add to the CR

  It started with me being unable to power on a virtual machine that I created because of "Insufficient resources to meet the level of failover configured for HA" which is great because that's how to configure HA.  I tried to reconfigure the AP to the host by double-clicking on the host and select this option.  Once I did that it failed about 30% with "an error has occurred while setting up the HA Agent on the host" and the networking page disappeared from the configuration tab similar to what a lot of people reported during the upgrade, I think an earlier version.  This is not the case, I did not update anything.  Then I restarted service service mgmt-vmware restart and the ESX host disconnected from the VC altogether.  I can't use the VI client to connect to the host in question, but I am connected via the service console. All VM and the host not to requests ping and everything works. I've disabled HA and DRS and tried to add new ESX host that has not worked.

  Any help is appreciated.  Thank you.

  I found this article that has the same symptoms as you.

  Check if your esx.conf file is corrupted. Follow the directions in the KB article to restore or recreate.

• help help... ESX host shows that only ANSWERS DO NOT

  Hello

  I have the ESX host, who said State says "NOT RESPONDING" status virtual Center, but the host's who responded and I am able to connect to the console using PuTTY... Can someone help me what could be the problem to show the status as no ANSWERS DO NOT... I do not see that error correct logs in the logs events and... The virtual machine that is hosted on the ESX host also works very well and im able to RDP to it with all the problems but in VM, it shows as disconnected...

  ASK YOU TO HELP ME QUICKLY BECAUSE IT IS IN THE PRODUCTION...

  Hey Shashi,

  If the ESX host is unresponsive defeated VC if you can connect to the host ESX via VI Client, if yes, then the service pass works very well and you need to troubleshoot the service virtual Center on the esx host agent. You many consider them raise all initially with order # service vmware-vpxa restart

  If you are unable to connect to the ESX host using VI Client, restart the service spend using service # mgmt - vmware restart and check the logs # tail f /var/log/vmware/hostd.log check for errors/progress.

  Also look at kb.vmware.com for that matter and you'll find some articles that may help you solve problems.

  All the best

• Change DNS IP addresses on the ESX host server

  Hello

  I need to change the IP address of my Windows DNS servers on the my ESX hosts. I know I can do this through the vsphere client, but that requires a reboot of the servers. Is there a way I can do this via ssh by changing a file that will not cause a restart of the host? If so, please describe how to do this.

  Also, if the host is restarted, what will happen in the virtual machine of in the interval until the host is upward? It will cause the virtual machine to restart as well, or so I have to restart their after that the host is back? I also disabled HA until I did the DNS changes.

  Thank you.

  normally, I'm a "network service restart. sure enough...

• MAC addresses of our network interface cards physical on the ESX host

  I asked a very interesting question.   What is the MAC address for each physical network cards within our ESX host.   Our host ESX3.5Update4 has 6 of them.

  I am able to ESXCfg allows to identify the vNIC but assimilates to the physical network adapters?   or, how can I find the MAC address of the physical network adapters?

  No, I mean there are additional MAC addresses that the switch can 'see '.  The service console interface have a MAC, and address that will be displayed if you run 'ifconfig', but vmkernel will not be displayed in this way, use "esxcfg-vmknic - l" to display this MAC address.  The virtual machine each have their own of the MAC you can get that from their configuration files, or the vi client.

• storage is not avalibel lanyard for esx host

  Hello

  After the restart of all my esx host, they lost a storage. I can see the storage on the vmhba. How do I reconnect my host esx with output storage in shape with the help of add storage?

  using the GUI?

  Click on the host computer, click the tab confgiuration, then advanced settings, then LVM.

  You set the value to 1, go back, and I think it will show your defined again data stores where the VMDK files.

  Your not really supposed to run with him on this subject can do instant appear strange and other things, in order to you once you have them should rename back to their own names, not names assigned the will gave them.

  PS: When you add the VM (s) return, make sure you do it to the custom help, then it lets you choose existing datastors.

• ESX host will not use VMotion

  Hi all

  I have a question maybe someone can help.

  I installed two new ESX hosts in their own cluster, managed by a single data center environment.

  After the installation and updates, adding them to the Cluster environment and adding new licenses to the license server VC.

  I have one of the two ESX host who won't use VMotion. Everything is allowed as should be. But in the section of the Add On to the Configuration of the license, I see the following:

  VMware DRS Licensed for 2 cpu

  VirtualCenter for ESX Server Licensed agent for 2 cpu

  VMotion will not used

  VMware Consolidated Backup for 2 cpu license

  VMware HA under license for 2 cpu

  Additional details:

  Both servers in the cluster are identical hardware profiles: Intel 3.2Gig Xeon, 2 cavities 4 hearts, no HT.

  32Gig of RAM, (Proliant DL380 G5)

  The two servers connected to the SAN via Fibre Chanel Switch, redundant.

  Concert NIC ((VMNic 0 (Console 1), VMNic 1 (Standby adapter), VMNic 2 (Console 2) (the Virtual Machine Network), (VMkernel), (ports of vSwitch 56 none VLAN not defined) VMNic 3 (Standby adapter)).)

  No errors in the Logs of license, the Console message, etc. Everything seems in good health with no update needed.

  Both servers see the unique data store, created on the same SAN which it connects through the switch channel.

  VMFS 3.31.  Unique data store with several extensions (8 in total, the creation of a size of 15 to storage).

  Any ideas?

  All my other hosts using VMotion, but it does not work and there is no difference in configuration, I know.

  Thank you

  • FPTHREE

  Some of the most common problems that cause problems VMotion - have you enabled for VMotion vmkernel port? VMkernel ports on the same segments of entwork?

  Can you provide the ip addresses for your vmkernel enabled for vmotion -

• ESX host is not responding

  Hello

  now, I have a problem.

  a customer has 3 blade IBM HS23.

  because in the course of the last 7 months I had 4 times the host esx became offline / insensitive

  all the vm continue to operate therefore continues to operate production

  ESX host do not react on SSH connection or telnet

  I can connect after pressing F2 and F12, but then the host everything crashes

  I can't connect to the vi to the ESX host client either.

  all hosts are installed on the IBM's USB drive

  the only thing to solve it is to off the blades and start again

  also random sound. I had 3 months running good, good running 1 day and 3 weeks running good

  the vpxd.log file displays only the waiting times to communicate with the esx host and then the error offline

  already updated all my firmware (chasis, blades, storage, fiber brocade and IBM switches)

  I started with vsphere 5.5 u1 U1 and ESXI 5.5 IBM. already updates on vsphere 5.5 U2 and 5.5 ESXi vmware u2 (since ibm doesn't have an ESXi custom 5.5 u2)

  im stuck... lil last event is on 16/01/2015 (and ibm will not support since there only subscription for 3 years and no software support contract)

  one last point, I'm under bacup veeam and 7.x replication but don't see a problem there.

  Thanks in advance.

  I found the problem

  I've restarted only iSCSI data store and all ESXi hosts becomes sensitive

  so, after searching for the qnap forum I noticed that they have released an update on 29/01/2015

  test of the firmware now and see what happens

  If this fails, I guess the qnap ts - 469L is not taken in charge more for vsphere 5.5

  Thank you all for the suggestions

• get the mac address of the ESX host through powershell commands

• same mac address lan on different esx hosts

  Hi, I have a unit of vmware (firewall) who take control of the NICs mac address, if I move this to another Esx VM, all configuration fell, because the lan mac address is different from the first Esx.

  Is there a way to put the same mac address on two or more Esx host in the network adapters.

  I tryied to set the mac address on the settings of the VM manually from the second Esx, but the first part is blocked.

  In this case, I suggest to make a manual copy.

  Or remove the inventory on the destination hosts, set the vmx file (to restore the old MAC address), then add back to the inventory.

• The requested operation is not implemented by the server when you try to access the VI Client with ESX hosts

  Hello

  We have problems with the VirtualCenter (which someone else works).  I need to access some of the virtual machines and tried to connect through the VI client to all ESX hosts.  I get this error after I give him password, username, and hostname:

  The requested operation is not implemented by the server.

  I'm sure I got this race last year.

  A reflection as to why it does not work?

  Thank you!

  Hello.

  How you launch the client?  Is it a shortcut with possibly a few settings in there?  If so, try running it without parameters.

  Good luck!
