slow performance on a new installation of esxi 4.1

After a certain time. My server esxi 4.1 loses so much network performance, when I try to connect with the vic, what happens to expired on matrices and "inventory loading" or when I do connect, after a minute or so, I get error messages saying esxi took too long to respond. I checked the logs, and they look fine to me. I also allocated 10 GB of ram for the 2400 Mhz to one of my 12 xeon cores and system. I have to allocate more resources to the system? What could be wrong?

Could be something in the motherboard which takes a few days to build up. Or it could be that newspapers are being filled with questions and just start to impact performance after x number of days. It could be also the hard drives that you use do not play nice...

See what an esxtop command gives you on the host when the performance starts to tank... You can connect directly to the ESXi SSH host (as with the application of sealant) once you have activated the option of remote tech support (SSH) via vCenter security... You can also enable this option if you are directly on the host server, in the form of color sort... It is in the actual configuration menu, is no longer necessary to use the command 'unsupported '...

  • new installation on raid 10, error starting

    Hi, I would like to know why I get the message "initialization error" after a new installation of esxi 4.0. I chose the first installation disc (4 x 750). I should do something special before installation? Can I install a RAID 10?

    my server is DL160 G5p

    Thanks for helping me

    You do not have a supported hard drive controller. The controller does not hardware raid and requires software drivers to work. ESX (i) does not support these types of controllers. You can try searching through http://vm-help.com to see if there is that custom files that can help you get up and running.

  • How to perform a new installation of window 8.1?

    Hello

    (If this is important), I use an Alienware X 51 R2 with the following specifications:

    Intel i5 4440U 3.3 GHz processor

    AMD R9 270 2 GB

    8 GB RAM

    1 TB HARD DRIVE

    Basically, my alienware has had many recent accidents before I made my own window installation 8.1 via the USB port. I thought it will run more fast and smoother after I have done, but here are a few problems:

    1 secure Boot product still "no error of Boot Drives Found" as soon as I turn on the computer. So I have to disable Secure Boot.

    2 application opening time is still as slow as before the clean install (i.e. Chrome)

    So, is there a procedure step by step on how to perform a new installation of window 8.1? I want this PC to match at the beginning when I first bought.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

  • TextMode/BIOS startup slowed 15 ~ 20 x after 7 Win-New Installation

    Hello

    My company received a S10 - 2 (Windows XP Home OEM) as a gift after buying an x server IBM 3650.

    As my company is moving to Win 7, the following has been achieved in the order:

    (1) the removal of all the partition (including the quick start, the recovery and the WinXP partition)

    (2) new installation of Windows 7 Pro

    (3) office Pro 2 k 3, NetOp comments

    (4) Win 7 patches of my enterprise WSUS server

    (5) replaced 1 GB Ram to 2 GB (DDR2 3500 at 667 Mhz, 1.8V)

    (6) latest S10-2 bios (rev 22)

    (7) driver Win 7: NIC and Intel GMA950

    TextMode startup slowed considerably after step 3) - even the line of underscores ('_') blinks 10 - 20 times slower. Generally, it takes 15 minutes to start GUI of Win 7.

    Despite the slow start, speed/performance of S10 - 2 is acceptable once started in GUI from Win 7. Experience Windows Index of the RAM, HARD drive and the processor is an average of 3 ~ 4 with lower graphics to 2.2.

    I tried the following but not vain:

    (1) replace the 1 GB of RAM

    (2) reinstall the following: drive HARD, RAM and WiFi

    (3) update the BIOS Rev 22 (step 6)

    4) to update drivers Windows (step 7)

    I also met the next post which suggests to disable "Quick start" I'll try tomorrow (after the English description):

    Hi all

    The problem seems to be fixed after you install the latest driver from Intel storage matrix. The startup time down 15 minutes to 40 seconds.

    It seems that the BIOS EFI is very sensitive even to drivers used by Windows?

  • ESXi 3.5 to 4, issue of... new installation or upgrade path?

    Hello

    I have a test ESXi 3.5 server that contains 3 VM.  It's all local storage.  I don't have a vCenter.

    What is the best way to upgrade?

    (1) perform a real upgrade to theVMware ESXi 4.0 (upgrade ZIP) and VMware vSphere Host Update Utility and customer.

    (2) perform a clean installation of ESXi 4.

    I would prefer to use (2), but first: a clean install of will wipe away the existing VMFS partition where the virtual machine of resident?

    Thank you!

    A new installation will wipe existing VMFS data warehouses so you'll want to take the path of upgrading.  http://www.vm-help.com/esx40i/ESXi40_upgrade_without_virtualcenter.php - Note that you should be able to get a direct download to the client vSphere instead of having to extract, upgrade the upgrade zip file.

  • How to perform a new installation while keeping the book mark, addons, etc.?

    I need to perform a new installation and I would like to keep my personal information, bookmarks, etc.. I know these info are stored separately and want to use it in the new facility. How can I do?

    Your personal data are stored in your profile. This folder is normally left intact when uninstalling Firefox, unless you check the option 'remove my Firefox personal data '.

    Also note that most of the problems with Firefox are contained in the profile folder. You can get a fresh start while maintaining things like Favorites and passwords resetting Firefox.

  • New installation of Windows 7 translates speeds very slow of the internet. Works in safe mode.

    3 weeks ago, I installed windows 7.

    For some reason, internet is super slow. I noticed right away because the download of the updates took forever. I thought it was because I need to install the NIC drivers, so I only have the first. It didn't fix it. Then, I searched and tried everything I could find online. The only thing that did work was that if I boot mode safe mode with network speed is very well .

    When I discovered that, in safe mode, everything was fine, that I started to disable any service that relates to networking. (As the Base and support Ip filtering engine, etc) This does not solve it so I decided to try the oppisite I started in safe mode with network and then loaded to the top of msconfig and any service that was not running in safe mode, I turned off. Thinking that I start one by one and find out what service was slowing downloads. When I booted in normal mode, the download speeds were still broken.

    So I continued then to disable services, I disabled all services which have to do with networking, and to enable windows.  (Things like the service that launches programs. Yes, any program that has not been opened I could not open.) Accordingly, I have concluded that it was not all services.

    This is a new installation, so I only installed firefox and flash. (no flash for the speed test) no anti-virus, etc.

    Here are a few screens of speed trials. These are actually kind of funny because the download is so fast that downloads.

    It is in safe mode with network speed. http://imgur.com/7VJvt

    It's the speedtest in normal mode, http://imgur.com/dDp5B

    • disabled auto-tuning
    • disabled IPv6
    • turned off homegroup
    • reinstalled drivers
    • drivers uninstalled (for default windows drivers)

    • I installed another version of Win 7. (Installed Win7 professional first and after Win7 Ultimate)
    • reinstalled the drivers again.
    • Disable all of the services.

    What did do? He went out and bought a new network card. I guess that despite the windows NETWORK card drivers 7 I installed windows for some reason any dislikes the network card. (NVidia nForce 10/100/1000 Mbit / s) It is built in the nice for the card mother P5N - D.

    The funny thing is that 3 1/2 weeks, when I had the problem. I asked him what he thought and he said to go out and buy a new network card. When I hesitated to do so, he said he would buy the NIC if it did not work.

    In any case, I hope this helps someone maybe who has the same problem, I did.

  • What will be lost if I perform a new installation of vCenter Server?

    Hello

    We tried to upgrade our existing vCenter Server 4 to 5 without success.  The VC Server service is not able to start up.

    VMWare support staff has suggested us to perform a new installation.  We would like to know what information will be lost and must be reconfigured to the new vCenter Server?  We are OK to do not keep permeable Performance data.

    Thank you

    What you lose depends on what you have in vCenter.

    Models, Folders, Cluster configurations, pools of cluster resources, HA/DRS configurations, alarm settings

    clusters to store data, storage profiles, profiles of the host, historical events,

    If you use the vNetwork distributed switch,

    vCenter Distributed switching configurations will not exist in the new facility and

    need to be rebuilt before adding the hosts;   You'll probably need to convert those back

    the standard vSS on the hosts temporarily before adding them to the new vCenter...

    Basically... you lose all configuration except the configuration stored locally on the host computers.

    It is essentially the list of virtual machines and the stuff you see in the 'configuration' tab when you click

    a host.

    You will need to add the hosts as one of the steps in the installation of the new Victoria Cross.

    You will have the virtual machines stored on the host and resource pools that existed

    on the host at the time, vC was lost.

    However, when you move the hosts in a cluster, the 'Home' resource pools

    will be deleted.

  • New installation of Secure ACS 4.1 on 2003, very slow

    Hi all

    We just did a new installation of Server 2003, ACS 4.1 Standard and it appears whenever we try to apply a change (add user, add a network device, etc.) it takes forever. Sometimes, it just hangs and if we close the browser and set up another session that he warns that an admin is already looking at any page, we were on. This isn't a disk space issue. The server is a quad core with a lot of memory. It has the latest java settings and running Server 2003 SP2. At least seen this problem before?

    What I'm saying is that, regardless of the fact that the server properly installed and it can handle some OK authentication it will fail from time to time, this is due to the fact that the platform that you have installed in it is not a platform supported by this version. If you never open a TAC case that you could end up doing so, you will be asked to 4.1.1.23 to 4.1.4 just to support your configuration

  • VMWare ESXi 3.5 u4 suffering from slow performance in iSCSI RAID-5 of 15 k RPM SAS SAN

    Hi all

    I suffer from very slow performance using my deployed virtual computer on the

    iSCSI SAN-VMFS datastore, the attachment following shows the deployment

    scheme which I believe already according to best practices around of

    the net separating the SAN network in the server.

    According to: http://virtualgeek.typepad.com/virtual_geek/2009/01/a-multivendor-post-to-help-our-mutual-iSCSI-customers-using-VMware.html

    It seems that no matter how fast the disk is, using SAN

    in a VMWare environment, it will be always slow around 160 MB/s http://www.petri.co.il/forums/images/smilies/icon_neutral.gif CMIIW

    Usually, this means that customers are

    which for a single iSCSI target (and however multiple LUNS that may be)

    behind this objective 1 or more), they cannot travel more than 120-160MBps.

    I do to boost performance?

    I too installed software and had slowed performance. Just added 2 GB of RAM, and it helped. Took the computer to Best Buy for analysis and they gave me a list of about 110 programs of software that are installed. However, when I go into Add/Remove Programs, controls, some of the software on the list of Best Buy isn't on my Add/Remove list. Where can I find the software that is not in the Add/Remove Control Panel programs, but is listed as the software on my computer? Can I assume that it will be in the Explorer of Windows Defender - software? Is there a 'General' rule which should absolutely stay and not be deleted? Will I guess that if there "Dell", "Embarq" (my ISP), "Microsoft", "Windows" - I should exercise caution and not delete?

  • construction of a new 5.5 esxi

    Hello

    I am currently building a new server with ESXi 5.5, something I have never done before. I installed everything and it works well, except that the machines sometimes feel a bit slow. The drive is currently connected to the motherboard, no RAID, not anything, just to get some experience. Could someone please help me clarify the following:

    -J' read the ESXi itself write performance are really bad, I can confirm that when I copied some already existing virtual machines to it, it took forever to get the across a gigabit in a NAS link. I mounted the NAS via NFS to the ESXi, but when I sent a machine directly to the host through the speed converter was also very slow.

    -When I take a backup using VM Eplorer I see that the disc is fast

    -When I copy large files inside the guest, I see that the copy is rapid until the cache of comments is full, after performance decreases significantly

    I read forums and I found that I need a RAID controller with a cache of the battery to get a better speed. In this way, the controller puts cached data. But what happens if I copy a file large enough to fill the cache on the controller, the performance goes to lower even with the sluggish?

    But the thing that me perplexed the most: if I install a Windows Server on the same computer and copy large files, I see the decline in performance when I fill the windows cache, but the writing speed is still about 70 MB/s, which is acceptable to me. The native ESXi writing speed is much slower than that. What happens there, whence the difference?

    Kind regards

    Krisztián

    Thanks to all who tried to help me. Conclusion:

    I hooked another solo drive in the small RAID LSI controller I have in one of the PCI slots, moved the files of virtual machine and I got the following result:

    [root@leo ~] # dd if = / dev/zero of =. / teszt1G bs = 1 count = 1 oflag direct = G

    records 1 + 0

    1 + 0 records out

    1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 12.032 s, 89.2 MB/s

    [root@leo ~] #.

    Which is more than satisfactory. Something is fishy with the drive or the controller on the motherboard.
