• NPIV enabled on the virtual machine, but not seen in the comments

  Hello

  I have a 5.0 with an HBA qlogic esxi. I created a VM and rhel is installed.

  Then I activated the npiv on this virtual machine and saw that it generated node WWN and port WWN.

  However, when I logged in the comments, I am not able to see the names of ports in

  / sys/Class/scsi_host/Host {n} / device / fc_host:host {n} / port_name

  Are there additional configuration on the side of the virtual machine to allow the WWNS within the guest?

  Thanks in advance.

• Problem of print dialog box. Cannot change the selection of the printer. Box is stuck on Canon Fax series printer in the dialog for some programs, but not all programs.

  Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

  Ideas:

  • Adobe Reader; Mozilla Firefox will print for the Canon Fax (not my default printer) series.  I am trying to print on a printer HP 7300, which is my default printer.
  • I can print to the printer HP 7300 of Microsoft Word and Internet Explorer
  • I have very limited ability to print from Microsoft Outlook, but the number of copies is out of control
  • There is no error message
  • Problem started after a power surge
  • I did a restore of the system for the period before the problem started, but it has not set a problem.  I also ran the Windows Print diagnostic program but found no problem.  I ran McAfee virus scan and found no problem.
  Hello
   
  Your printer is connected to a network?
   
  I would like you to follow the steps mentioned below.
   
  Step 1:
   
  Restart the print spooler service, set the default printer.
   
  a. Click Start, type "Services.msc" in the search box
  b. in Services, right-click on print spooler and then click Properties.
  c. click the Dependencies tab. The first box list all system services that must work for the print spooler start.
  d. take note of each service, click OK, and then restart each print spooler service based.
   
  Step 2:
   
  Update your HP driver 7300 series printer and check if it helps.

• Folder path as a VM property - for virtual machines in a paralytic

  Hello

  I used the new-viproperty of LucD script to create a folder for each virtual computer property in my inventory. It works perfectly well for virtual machines, but not for virtual machines in a paralytic as these do not have a 'record' in powercli property. they report a $null value.

  Would be much appreciated if someone can help me to modify this script so it creates a VM property for the VMS and VMs in a paralytic?

• Eager to install SRM - but not all LUNS replicated (yet)

  I met/completed all installation conditions of SRM as demerger of our unique VirtualCenter/vCenter in 2, prepared a couple of RS servers for installation of SRM, downloaded the SRA for our storage provider, etc., etc.

  The only thing that is not done / in place (and it's a GREAT thing) is replicated data warehouses.  They are PARTIALLY done we have 5 LUN that we will replicate initially, and only 1 of them is over.

  I originally wanted EACH of them to full replication until I actually installed/configured SRM with my groups, recovery plans, etc., but our SAN/networking guy advised me that the 4 remaining Lun will take about a month before the recovering site has completely initial sync LUNS involved.  It is what it is - our bandwidth between sites is a MPLS cloud with nearby speed T3, but after how much time it took the first LUN to finish synchronizing, we estimated that 4 week period for the completion of the other LUNS.

  Can so I started today with just 1 LUN in place/loan/sync would be?  If I do, then I can't just "add" other groups for protection and recovery plans that must be like the other LUNS full synchronization, correct?

  Ideally, you do not want to wait that the LUN is replicated before configuring the SRM.  Through the SRA, the MRS server will examine your LUNS and check to see that there are some VMDK files.  If the virtual machine has storage on any other beside the replicated lun LUN, it will not be able to configure protection for this virtual machine.  You can manually the value of protection on the virtual machine and exclude all storage not replicated, but which will probably hurt your DR plan.

  If the goal is to simply prove that MRS. works by testing the recovery of a limited set of VM, then you can start now.  If one really wants to implement a complete recovery of the site plan, then you must wait for all of the replication ends.

• Change tracking (CTK) block is supported for this virtual machine, but was refused. This will increase the CPU proxy and consumption of IOP.

  I have problems with a client of VMware image-level in an EMC Avamar backup.  So far, we have not been able to find information about this message in the backup log file.  It is originally the backup to take a very long period of time (on average 10-11 hours).

  2014-02-28 14:20:57 avvcbimage < 14681 > Info: change tracking (CTK) block is supported for this virtual machine, but was refused. This will increase the CPU proxy and consumption of IOP.

  We cannot determine why CBT is "denied".  Has anyone here run across this issue before or seen any other type of backup VMware image have denied CBT?

  Everything I checked watch that CBT is successfully activated since the file vmx for the customer to the Avamar config.

  ESXi host is Enterprise Plus 4.1.0 260247

  After spending some time on this issue, the ultimate resolution withdrew the Avamar vm and then add it again.  After that, CBT began to work properly.  It seems that there is a parameter that has been 'stuck' pertaining to this virtual machine that wasn't behaving properly.

• First research of 2015 CC does not always work. For example, it will find all items that contain 'Toronto', but not all items that contain "Arnold".

  It's very mysterious. I did every step several times. I type in a single word that I know for sure watch upwards in multiple file names. Sometimes it gives me all the relevant results, sometimes it gives me no result at all. I double checked to make sure that I was looking for all the metadata.

• Virtual machine does not start

  Hello, I had a VM VirtualBox but VB don't sharing not the graphics so I was told to use the workstation. I tried from news on workstation Virtual Machines, but also to transfer to the other virtual machine, but it sits right on the screen for hours. I have a pretty crappy laptop so I understand the Virtual Machines may not work correctly, but this would make won't start do not at all?

• Need a script for virtual machine availability

  I know there is a metric for sys.uptime.latest which pulls the elapsed time in seconds surveyed of the virtual machine startup. Two questions

  This allows VM cacluate uptime in a perspective of avalability host?

  It only takes into account availability time between reboots to the vCenter level, or it takes into account all the running time? (example: uptime since a restart triggered via vCenter client vs a shutdown - r resulting in a virtual machine)

  Does anyone have a scipt that could be used or modified to give VM uptime? PowerGUI has a performance data plugin which can show it on a unique basis of VM. But I need to interview all the data for the whole vCenter and all virtual machines.

  Thank you!

  The metric of sys.uptime.latest gives you the time since the last poweron of the virtual machine.

  All reboots of BONE, of in the comments or via the vSphere client, do not reset the counter.

  This script gives you a report of the availability for all your virtual machines

  $vms = Get-VM Get-Stat -Entity $vms -Stat sys.uptime.latest -MaxSamples 1 | ` Select @{N="VM";E={$_.Entity.Name}},@{N="Uptime";E={$_.Value}}
  

• How this problem fixed?  Virtual machine could not be loaded: it could be missing, corrupted, or inaccessible

  Can anyone help. ?  whenever I run the .vmx file. the following message appears.

  "Virtual Machine could not be loaded: it could be missing, corrupted, or inaccessible" it was working fine... its vmx of windows 2003 server. all of sudden this message began to appear.

• Some, but not all, programs in CS6 Master Collection is more open, inviting the Adobe Application Manager

  Here's my problem. I bought the CS 6 Master Collection when it came out. Everything was fine until recent months when some, but not all, programs won't open. When I run CS 6 Illustrator, Creative Cloud Adobe Application Manager opens. To renew your subscription? When I Subscription Manager, I said I have a free subscription to creative cloud. Agents chat Adobe told me that my creative cloud subscription is good.

  What is strange, but I thank you, is that other programs, such as Photoshop CS6 and Dreamweaver CS6, open very well, without the detour over the impasse of Adobe Application Manager.

  Through four chat sessions, I have been ordered to take various measures, which none have worked. The fuller was an uninstall of all Master CS6 Collection, run a cleaning of Adobe tool, then a reinstallation is complete. It took a while, but left me at the same place: Adobe Application Manager opens for 6, Illustrator CS, but CS 6 Dreamweaver and Photoshop 6 CS open very well.

  After several tries, I somewhat lost a little confidence in agents chat for Adobe. Does anyone have a solution for this?

  Hello

  I checked with your Adobe ID here on the forums, there was a creative cloud subscription that is now closed there ended in August 2014.

  Uninstalling CS6 will not help you will need to remove the Creative cloud completely from your machine first.

  After that reinstall CS6 from - applications download Creative Suite 6

  Please follow the steps; below

  MAC:

  1 force quit Adobe all processes in the activity monitor (for example, CC, Core sync, the broker CC library, Office, Adobe, Adobe CPI, demon Adobe Crash etc..)

  2-go to: Finder > Applications > utilities > Adobe installer > uninstall Adobe Creative cloud (if problems uninstall Trash)

  3-go to: Finder > Applications > utilities > (delete these two folders - creative cloud Adobe and Adobe Application Manager)

  4. then run the cleanup tool to remove the clouds creative and Adobe Application Manager (if it remains in the machine)

  5 right-click on the icon in the Finder, then select 'Go - To' folder.

  6. you will get a text box, type in the following command and then press 'return '. ("Not to be missed ~ symbol")

  ~/Library (it will open the folder of the user's library.)

  7. browse to the Application Support > Adobe > OOBE folder and folder AAM Updater so trash

  8. new > right-click on the icon in the Finder and select "go to" folder option. > you will get a text box, type in the following command, and then click 'Return' key. / Library (it will open the library system folder.)

  9. browse to the Application Support > Adobe > trash folder OOBE and Adobe Application Manager / after that, rename the SL-STORE like SL-STORE_OLD

  Adobe 10 - run cleanup tool. > If so, select "Adobe Application Manager for Mac OS X 10.6 ' and then click on"Clean up selected. "

• Protection group virtual machines do not have consistent snapshop point in time using vSphere replication

  As the title, we feel when capturing instant timestamp for virtual machines in a protection group.

  Which means a group of database servers, applications, and others, when drill us test to start the virtual machines in the recovering site files timestamp in the virtual machines are varied.

  Snapshot work is executed simultaneously for all virtual machines in the group when planning replication hit? Or is it because certain virtual machines (like DB) speak more time to complete the snapshot so than others like apps VM completed early?

  Anyone hit this problem? We use vSphere replication instead of array based replication.

  Thanks /.

  Dylan

  Hello

  It is a behavior expected with current versions of vSphere replication - replication source host Scheduler is not aware of any grouping of virtual machines and starts the replica instance to meet the RPO requirements. The decision when to start a new instance is based on the time of loading and transfer to some of the previous instances.

  Multi-vm coherence is on the roadmap for a future release and will describe what exactly you address issues.

  If you use VR 5.5, you may use multiple points depending on the time (JEREMIAH) and after switching some of the old machines instances (represented by VM snapshots) to match the State of the other machines.

  Kind regards

• Virtual machines do not get IP address from the DHCP server

  Hello! I just spend Xenserver to ESXi. Created a couple of virtual machines and none of them gets an IP address from our DHCP server (DHCP server is a physical PC), and instead, they get a number of internal 192.168.x.y allowing connection to the internet.

  Looks like a way to do this is to install a virtual machine that is a router, as M0n0wall, and route traffic to connect to the external network and finally to access internet. But this is not what I have to do.

  I need to have virtual machines that are server to get an IP reserved for our DHCP server, and then our local windows client should be able to access it directly.

  I searched on google and forums for this but I can't seem to find how to configure virtual machines to directly belong to our local network.

  I thought that VMware would have a simpler way to do so than XenServer, but I was stuck on this one day now and really frustrated as I get not before with this project, stuck on this little problem... sigh...

  Thanks for your help.

  GER.

  ESXi does not IP addresses to the virtual machines it host - if the virtual machines are not able to access your physical network than that of the thw two virtual machines acts as a DHCP server - now to the question of network - if you are not able to reach the virtual machines on the physical network or achieve fitness network virtual machines , then there is a problem with the physical connection to the ESXi host, possibly the configuration of the physical port that connects to the - is a way to test this theory to assign an IP address on the same network that the management port - if you are able to access the virtual machine, then you know that the problem is with the switch port.

• VSphere 5.1: Virtual Machine does not share host RAM

  Hello

  I use a 5.1 Vsphere license (Vsphere 4 update)

  I am facing a problem after the upgrade, virtual machines do not RAM

  As if I have two machine with 2 GB of RAM in total then use of the RAM on the HOST becomes 4 GB but really active memory usage is about 1 GB only.

  It wasn't a problem in Vsphere 4 it shows an active memory as the HOST memory usage but in Vsphere 5 Virtual machine share not RAM and book full RAM when turned on.

  Maybe there's some settings to enable sharing of memory or to disable this full booking of RAM.

  Hello

  The changes are the VMkernel is using large pages to back up virtual memory pages.

  For more information, this article by Duncan will provide enough information and links to other articles on this topic:

  http://www.yellow-bricks.com/2011/01/26/re-large-pages-gabvirtualworld-frankdenneman-forbesguthrie/

  In short VMkernel will place pages issued by the VM in large pages on the physical memory to speed up the memory access. Large pages are used when the physical CPU that has functions EPT (Intel) or IVR (AMD).
