SLED 11 host - VMware Server 1 upgrade to VMware Server 2, former VM work now "(invalid).

The other day, I upgraded my work, the latest installation of VMware Server 1 to the latest VMware Server 2 for linux 64. Everything went perfectly with the installation, except for the little matter that now my Windows Vista, Windows XP SP 3 and my VM Windows 2000 are listed as "not valid" in the inventory. They have never worked.

What is the best way to start troubleshooting this?

Sorry we couldn't get you go - I'm sure we could give enough time.

If you have installed from the rpm package you should just be able to uninstall via an RPM EI and then will delete the virtual machines and their associated files.

  • The upgrade of the host, VMware ESXI 4.1

    Hello

    I am running a host VMware ESXi 4.1. It seems that VMware claims now this product VMware vSphere Hypervisor (am I right?). Was it a name change purely marketing, or they introduce new functions as well? Is VSphere Hypervisor a more recent version of ESXi

    Is there a tool to upgrade VMware ESXi 4.1 for newer versions (no matter if their output yet or not, just wondering about the upgrade in general)?

    Thanks in advance!

    Don't worry, it's all the same. You have the same binary files for all editions of ESXi, it is only the license key that locks or unlocks features. I think that the main reason why VMware decided to call ESXi free edition "Hypervisor" was because many people were confused that ESXi is free or not.

    There are two upgrade options ESXi. For the first, you must have a licensed version of vCenter Server, which offers the "Update Manager". The second is to use the command line utility "vihostupdate".

    In addition, you can take a look at http://www.vm-help.com/esx41/Patching_4.1_with_the_host_update_utility.php

    I have already set up network, DNS, make sure firewall ports, Ping - are all OK.

    (2) Moreover, while trying to create new CD, add the cluster, then add hosts, is giving following error.

    ESXi 6 cannot be managed by vCenter 5.5 or earlier.

    Note: I've also been meeting random uses CPU high, leading from Windows Server 2008 to lock up completely.  I have found no trace of problems within the Windows host and Vcenter is not questions.  I have "reset" of the virtual machine in order to get the server back online.  The CPU to the top lock is random and the server can run for days with no problems. * Don't know if it's related...

    I understand that vmotion apply restrictions on the movement of VM compatibility to avoid it.  The components of the HA does not apply to these requirements.  We tested yesterday HA, succsessfully and this how we came to be stuck with the Exchange vm on vmserver2 and it cannot migrate to vmserver1.

    It seems that you have two different processor speeds. Try the VCA mode and also check the BIOS version you and make sure they match.

  • Additional physical network adapters on host VMware ESXi 3.5

    I would like to add additional physical network cards to host VMware ESX 3.5 (update 3). I installed two PCIe Intel NIC (E1G42ET) server for the HP ProLiant DL 380 G5 server. Both NIC cards recognized by the BIOS of the server.

    After you connect to the VMware VI Client I can't see or add new maps.

    In addition, new non-visible material in the host ESX console.

    You are not sure if the drivers of NETWORK interface card must be installed manually?

    Hello

    VMware ESX is NOT Linux, there a GNU/Linux management machinery... ESXi is not even there a device for managing Posix. Drivers for Linux won't work with ESX or ESXi. If the card is not without the HCL for ESX/ESXi, then it won't work with ESX/ESXi. Usually not in list HCL implies VMware doesn't have a driver yet for this card. All drivers must come from VMware ESX and ESXi recognize the hardware.

    Hi Ryan,

    I apologize for taking so long to get back to you.

    I have an idea that can help solve your problem:

    1 extract the exe of corporate pilot

    2. open Autorun.inf with Notepad

    3. go in the section [SystemRequirements] (not [SystemRequirements.501] or some other qualification)

    4. Add "MinUsbReady = 3' in this section

    5. save the file

    6. run setup.exe and then the program does not block your free USB port installation

    Please keep in mind that you are try this at your own risk. Please let me know how it works for you. I'm very interested and want to help.

  • Internal server messages no longer work when published on the web server, but not locally on the web server

    Just upgraded to 8 Captivate and for some reason my server any internal messages is no longer work on the web server.  I can test locally the lesson that always points to the Web server and it works.  Can't understand why when it is on the server it does not work.  The ashx handler that manages to post is fully accessible to the web server and DNS solves very well so I can't understand why he doesn't hit the Manager.  I use IIS to host it and a .ashx for managing for results.

    Is there maybe something new that needs to be allowed in IIS for 8 Captivate work?  .js seems to be fine and firewall is not the issue.  Short of ideas and the need for this work as soon as possible.

    Thank you very much for your help!

    Nick

    OK, finally solved.  For some reason any run under HTTPS lesson could not publish my results.  As soon as I changed to HTTP the results perfectly. All of this makes sense why I could post locally on the Web server.  Hope this saves someone else 5 days of hell.

  • MY DELL LATITUDE D610 HOW CAN I UPGRADE TO THE NEW VERSION OF WINDOWS? NOW IT IS WINDOWS 7, WHAT VERSION IS SUPPORT FOR USE WELL ON MY DEVICE?

    MY DELL LATITUDE D610 HOW CAN I UPGRADE TO THE NEW VERSION OF WINDOWS? NOW IT IS WINDOWS 7, WHAT VERSION IS SUPPORT FOR USE WELL ON MY DEVICE? PLEASE HELP ME

    Read this: upgrade Windows 10 Dell Latitude D610

    Take a look at my answer, complete instructions.

    Basically speaking, Dell officially supports Windows 2000 and Windows XP on Dell Latitude D610 (and other models of Dx10).

    However it can really run Windows Vista and 7 at least, as long as you max out the RAM (2 GB, 2 x 1 GB, can be purchased at a great price in eBay) and install the drivers, in particular graphics drivers, look in Device Manager and see what drivers are needed manually.

    If you're lucky to have a D610 with ATi graphics card then you can even run Windows 8 and 10 with all drivers available, and I can tell you that it won't be slow dog not unlike a lot of people say, I don't have something similar (a HP Compaq nx8220) in common use. Keep as lean as possible (not bloatwares, anti-virus etc.) system, and it will serve you well.

  • Server.findForType () does not work as expected

    Hi all,

    I have problem with finding vApps using the Server.findForType () method.

    Lets start from the beginning...

    Goal is to produce streams of work that could be called from outside using SOAP (SOAP is unfortunately obligatory). Portal that will call worlflows is underway of another people.

    They said a number of input and output parameters that workflows must accept and provide.

    I have test with vCenter Orchestrator environment, Director and everything works fine.

    SOAP host is created in Orchestrator using the build workflow (attached configuration - SOAP_Host_Configuration.rtf).

    I use SOAP UI to test the portal > communication Orchestrator.

    I am able to call using SOAP UI workflows.

    I am producing a simple workflow what powers on TIME using the string as an input parameter and who would return the same data as output parameter - VAPP UUID, ID, href, or anything that is considered VAPP unique brand.

    Out of SOAP UI of my VAPP is attached (SOAP_UI_vApp_Info.txt).

    If I try to use Server.findForType () it only works if I specify it like this:

    Server.findForType ("vCloud:VApp", "8265a03471add63d97f36c52e86fba8cebade2a3ca7bfcb4cb58cdff9ae9f8c / / /https://172.16.140.215/api/vApp/vapp-c7b33a3e-2174-465d-a4f2-0fa9663dc75d");

    and it does not work if if specify like this

    Server.findForType ("vCloud:VApp", "urn: vcloud:vapp:c7b33a3e - 2174-465 d-a4f2-0fa9663dc75d");

    In this case I get error:

    [21:49:35.911 2014-08-10] [I] Server error: ch.dunes.model.sdk.SDKFinderException: cannot perform the operation ' find (' TIME ',' urn: vcloud:vapp:c7b33a3e - 2174-465 d-a4f2-0fa9663dc75d') ' on the plugin "vCloud".

    Problem is that data "8265a03471add63d97f36c52e86fba8cebade2a3ca7bfcb4cb58cdff9ae9f8c / / / . https://172.16.140.215/API/vApp/vApp-c7b33a3e-2174-465D-a4f2-0fa9663dc75d "cannot be retrieved afterwords and be used as a unique identifier VAPP - vapp.dunesId returns nothing. "

    I use:

    vCenter 5.5.0 1623101

    vCO 5.5.1. 1617127

    vCloud Director 5.5.1 1753992

    vCloud Director Plugin 5.5.0.1894135

    vCenter Plugin 5.5.2.1869849

    Thank you very much for the help.

    Goran

    Of course, no problem. I found even a better way to retrieve by ID directly.

    Ex:

    vApp = host.getEntityById ("PPPV", "urn: vcloud:vapp:65a4db36-8efa-4512-afb5-7d663c13e2be");

    Kind regards

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that disables certain parameters, disables most Add-ons (extensions and themes).

    If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • In Firefox 29,0 and above, click on the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    • In previous versions of Firefox, click on the Firefox button in the upper left of the Firefox window and click help (or click on help in the Menu bar, if you do not have a Firefox button) and click on restart with disabled modules.

    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Mode safe mode as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
    • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
      (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. Please follow the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.
