• vCenter as a VM - install sql on the same machine virtual or separate?

  Hello

  What is the best practice when you install Virtual Center as a virtual machine?

  Can I install SQL server on the same VM or install a 2nd virtual computer for sql?

  I plan to install on the virtual machine itself, but I would like to know if there is a better method.

  Thank you!

• How to leave machine machine virtual ESX v3.5 for Vsphere v4.1?

  Hello

  I would like our VMS ESX v3.5 to a new VShere v4.1.

  Virtual machines are Windows 2003, RedHat 4 and 5.

  I wouldn't have any impact on the machine esource th.

  Methods:

  (1) stop the virtual machines, copy the folder with vmdk from the old data to the new store data + Start new store + install the new VmWare Tols

  OR

  (2) use the Option migrate (change the host + Datastore), works for the RedtHat Machines

  Thanks for the reply

  Welcome to the Forums - both will work but I use cold migrate method change of host and the data store.

• From machines virtual ESX 3.5 to 4.0 help

  I need to move virtual machines that reside on a box of ESX 3.5 and put on a case of ESX 4.0 currently.  Virtual machines live on the network so SAN is just as easy to move files to a SAN to another?   Or is it also a process of upgrading involved?    Thanks for the help.

  If you just move the virtual machines to another host SAN and ESX 4 they will run. However, it would be nicer if also upgrade you the hardware of the VMS to version 7 and also upgrade the VMware tools. Do not forget that after upgrading hardware to virtual machines to version 7, you will not be able to bring back the virtual machines on an ESX 3.5 host.

• Weird question on which the machine virtual ESX 3.5i

  Hello world

  I have a question very very weird on 2 x HP DL380 G5 boxes with ESX 3.5i U3 loaded on each.

  The installation program:

  DL380 G5

  2 x Quad core

  2 x 72 GB Raid 1 + 0

  6 x 146 GB Raid5

  32 GB OF RAM

  I installed esx 3.5i u3 according to the normal, created vm. But when I copy data to a network in the virtual machine folder spikes the cpu and the virtual machine does not respond. What makes it worse, is if I copy a large file on the c: to another folder on c: VM does not - high cpu and ping meets about 200ms. vmdk bones all over the 72 GB Raid 1 + 0 datastore. When I add a data from the store of raid5 data drive the same phenomenon occurs. If I copy the c to this drive on the raid 5 data store the virtual machine gets does not and pings hover at about 200ms.

  Any ideas?

  I have no idea why this is happening, Ive deployed the same configuration with a bunch of vm and no problem.

  I don't think its network since you said that you have the same problem copy from c: to c: on the same machine.

  Looks like the machine is waiting for e/s finish. Check if you can see if I/O is blocked somewhere

  Are there messages in the system log of Windows indicating disk problems?

  Check your RAID controller. It is on the HCL?

  Your write cache is configured correctly?

• Download machine virtual ESX of ESX1 and copy to ESX2.

  Hello

  I'm trying to copy a VM ESX comments from the server 1 Server 2.  I tried using VMware Converter 3.0.3 to rename the virtual server, and then copy it into ESX2. Then from then on out, change its host name, and then return to the field as a completely separate server.  However, VMware Converter is not let me import or I'm doing this wrong way?

  Scott.

  Thanks for the help discovered their was a problem with the vmware agent and he broke during the clone to the virtual machine. Reinstalled VMware Converter and the problem was solved.

  Thanks for your help.

• How can I share a unique ROW between several machines virtual ESX 4.0?

  Hi all

  How can I leave the two virtual machine see the same SAN LUNS (how can I share same LUNS between two virtual machines).

  Thank you

  Welcome to the Forums - try you two virtual machines in the cluster? If you are this should help - http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vsphere4/r41/vsp_41_mscs.pdf. If you're looking to share a data store I relate to one of the virtual machines and then either through creating CIFS share if they are windows machines or a NFS if Linux

• Recommendations for his new laptop of VMware Workstation 7 run machines virtual esx

  I'm about to buy a new laptop and I'm looking for something that is reasonably priced and that will be able to help me study for the new vcp tests by installing esx4 inside the workstation.

  If you know any good portable that won't break the Bank that will work for sure for this, I would really appreciate your advice.

  Thanks for your help.

  I have the p9600 (2.66 GHz with 6 MB of cache) in mine.  You can just call and order and ask anything you want.  Sometimes (as in my case) they will have processors that are not yet listed yet.  I think the max is just at 3 GHz.  I usually run 3 VMs at a time, or I'll run my team (4 virtual machines) and another 1 or 2 with them.  I used for my RHCT practice stuff and it will use for my VCP and MCITP Enterprise Administrator practice as well.  I had with Vista x 64, but put Windows 7 Ultimate x 64 on it when he came in (MSDN).

• Research in migration Exchange and SQL from physical servers to virtual machines... thoughts?

  Hi all, I use VMs for several years now, however back to the use of VMWare. I am currently running ESXi 4 on 2 servers separate host, with about 16 small resource type of the applications without any problem. I heard years keep intensive stuff like Exchange and SQL out of a VM guest, for reasons of system, but now I see a ton of articles from VMWare and windows push the thing to do. I have a relatively small environment compared to what they are touting... I was wondering if there is anyone out there who has any experience/thoughts on this? If I go this route I would probably look to buy some of the nicer features instead of using just the free version of ESXi.

  My current Setup uses HP DL360G5 servers that are coming out of warranty early next year, with the disk subsystem provided by a built environment of Equallogic iSCSI, on an isolated GB network SAN. I thought rather than buy 2 replacement servers that I can put the money to the full version of vSphere with some other goodies it offers.

  My Exchange environment is a relatively small number of boxes letters, but larger in size, running 2003 currently with 200 mailboxes to about 300 GB of space. I intend to switch to 2007 or 2010 next year as part of the migration of VM. I have to go to the next version will include likely standing another server, so I might be looking to buy 2 servers instead of 1.

  My SQL environment is small to begin with, a single instance of SQL 2005 with about 20 DB 120 GB in total size.

  2 guest machines I have are two Quad-processor Xeon dual socket with 16 GB and 24 GB of RAM, with less than 50% of RAM use each... and the processing power is hardly be affected at all.

  Sorry that it's a lot of info, I hope it makes sense for someone...

  Fix.

  You just need to do some analysis of storage before you virtualize servers in order to understand the needs of e/s. But if you move storage to local disk then any loss of performance, you can get to virtualize the server is offset by the gains in terms of the solution of SAN - faster storage & drives high-performance, virtual RAID, active\active controllers, cache... etc.

• vCenter and SQL 2005 Express on the same physical machine

  I'm new on the VMware environment and am a little concerned about my VMware infrastructure and design.  I have 3 boxes physical accommodation 15 virtual servers.  I have a 4th server that hosts the database SQL and vcenter.  I am wondering what are my chances of having vCenter and SQL 2005 express installed on the same box?  That suggest VMware as best practices concerning this configuration?  If this configuration is ok, what are my options to protect myself in case the box with vCenter and the SQL database dies?  Thank you

  VMware sets a limitation to 5 guests and 50 wen invited you use SQL Express. I run it with 6 guests and 48 guests (incl. models) on the same machine as the server vcenter. That's not what I want to keep and we will change to a standard SQL 2005 on a separate server from SQL (which we had with SQL 2000 and before VI3).

  But I didn't have one problem with this configuration, again.

  With both on the same server may lead to a conflict: SQL 2005 requires IIS but vCenter uses ports. So I installed it but disabled.

  I think also that separating the two tracks faster that have it all on the same box.

• Cannot run Virtual ESX host configured in my Asus u56e laptop machine. Says Intel Vtx unsupported...

  Friends,

  I can't run Virtual ESX host configured in my Asus u56e laptop machine. Explains Intel Vtx unsupported.

  I checked to find that my machine has Intel VT turned on in the Bios.

  Please notify. I tried to use VMware-guest64check - 5.5.0 - 18463 tool and it said that my machine can support 64 bit OS. Fixing of newspapers.

  In my computer, open your VM ESXi and go to VM-> settings.  Under processors, check the box next to 'Virtualiser Intel VT-x/EPT or AMD-V/IVR.'

• addition of virtual machine / Server esx for production environment

  Hello

  How can we add virtual machine or esx server for production environment?

  In general... As his "simple terms?

  Install ESXi host

  Install, run and connect to the host via the gateway client installed from the host on an external workstation

  Then

  OR THE OTHER

  Install and run the converter on each physical computer that you want to become a virtual machine

  Once finished, turn off power to virtual and physical.

  OR

  Create a virtual machine and install the o/s CD drive.

  What you want is way off the coast without 1 million questions about your installation.

• Transfer a Virtual Machine in Esx 2.5 to an ESX 4.1

  Hi all

  For a client, I need to transfer 3 virtual machines on an ESX 2.5 in stand-alone mode (local storage / VMFS2) for a new ESX 4.1 (local storage / VMFS3)

  I'm looking for a solution but without success. I see two ways to to do, but I can't test it before the migration, so could you give me your advice.

  (1) I copy all virtual machines in ESX 2.5 to the new storage to ESX 4.1 with scp.

  I create the virtual machine with the vmdk

  I put the last VmTools

  Upgrade virtual hardware

  (2) I have try the VmConverter username but I don'k know if he recognizes the VM Esx 2.5

  Is there another solution?

  Thanks for your help!

  Kind regards

  Franck

  the best solution in my opnion is with converter http://downloads.vmware.com/d/info/datacenter_downloads/vmware_vcenter_converter_standalone/4_0?hl=pt-BR&sourceid=gd&rlz=1Q1GGLD_pt-BRBR411BR412

  After the conversion to put vmware tools and after upgrade virtual HW.

• HO to import a virtual machine in esx host

  Hi all,

  I have a cluster of small esx (2host clustered in a datacenter) manged by a machine virtual vcenter. Now, I installed an esx on a small host outside the cluster, do some test activities that must be totally separate from my cluster of production.

  Before you perform the test esx host, I created some virtual machines in the production cluster. Now I want to import into my test esx host without have to reinstall them. Can I do this? the only way to achieve that I thought is to add my existing test in my data center host, leaving outside the cluster. then move my vms and remove it then, to manage alone.

  Is this possible without any risk to my cluster of production? is there any other solutions?

  Thank you very much

  Paolo

  Yes, but you cannot connect a free version, you need a license.

  To not change your existing cluster, simply add the host in the data center (so it's outside the cluster).

  When you are finished, just disconnect and remove the unused host.
