• Controller SCSI Raid ESXi 5.5 recommendation

  I'm moving the ESXi 5.5 to another server by using the following:

  
  

  Server Dell R610 with 12G of ram and a Dell PowerVaul 220 s Raid 5 with 12, space 1, 5 - T HD sata

  The Raid Controller is a Intel SRCU42E Ultra320 SCSI PCI-Express X 8 with ext 2 x 68pin ports.

  
  

  I get the error ' call 'HostDatastoreSystem. " 'Of object' CreateVmfsDatastore 'ha-datastoresystem' on ESXi when you try to add storage. I even installed 5.1 but with the same results.

  
  

  Later, after much research and troubleshooting, as well as headaches, I discover that the SCSI Raid card was not compatible with ESXI 5.1, 5.5 only with 4.1 or 4.0

  I begin to scan the cards SCSI RAID but difficult to get one with the above specifications that could be compatible with ESXI 5.5

  
  

  Run out of tricks and do not have the ability to turn the Dell PowerVault 220 s

  May suggest a SCSI Raid PCI - e card with a port Ext. 68pin compatible 5.1 to 5.5? All of the recommendations, difficulty, work around?

  Thank you

  ESXi 5.5 system requirements

  When you install or upgrade to ESXi 5.5, ensure that the host meets these minimum hardware configurations supported by ESXi 5.5:

  1. Your equipment is compatible on the VMware Compatibility Guide. This includes:
  • Systems compatibility
  • Compatibility I/O (network adapters and HBAS)
  • Storage compatibility
  • Backup software compatibility
• You have a 64-bit processor. VMware ESXi 5.5 only installs and runs on 64-bit x 86 CPU servers. He argues also that LAHF and SAHF CPU instructions.
• You have a computer with at least two hearts 5.5 ESXi host.
• The NX/XD bit is set for the CPU in the BIOS.
• Your processor is supported. ESXi supports a wide range of x 64 of multicore. For a complete list of taken processors supported,
• You have 4 GB of RAM. This is the minimum required to install ESXi 5.5. Provide at least 8 GB of RAM to take full advantage of the features of ESXi and run virtual machines in typical production environments.
• Support for hardware virtualization (Intel VT - x or AMD RVI) is enabled on x 64 CPU (to support 64-bit virtual machines). For a complete list of operating systems that are supported with ESXi, hosts running virtual machines with 64-bit operating systems have these hardware requirements:
  • For AMD Opteron systems, processors must be Opteron Rev E or later.
  • For Intel Xeon systems, processors must include support for Intel Virtualization Technology (VT). Many servers which may include processors with VT support VT disabled by default, so you have to manually enable VT. If your CPU support VT, but you do not see this option in the BIOS, contact your provider to request a version of BIOS that allows to enable VT support.

    Note: to determine if your server has 64-bit VMware support, download The utility of Identification of CPU on the VMware site.

• You have one or more Gigabit or 10 GB Ethernet controllers. For a list of network adapter models supported, refer to the VMware Compatibility Guide.
• You with any combination of one or more storage controllers are:
  • Basic SCSI controllers. Adaptec Ultra-160 or Ultra-320, LSI Logic Fusion-MPT and most NCR/Symbios SCSI.
  • RAID controllers. Reference Dell PERC (Adaptec RAID and LSI MegaRAID) RAID HP Smart Array or IBM ServeRAID controllers (Adaptec).
• You have a SCSI drive or a local, off-grid, RAID LUN with unpartitioned for VMS space.
• For Serial ATA (SATA), a drive connected through taken SAS controllers supported or supported integrated SATA controllers. SATA drives are supposed to be remote, no premises. These discs are not used as a partition to scrape by default because they are too far away.

  Note: you cannot connect a SATA CD-ROM device to a virtual machine on a host ESXi 5.5. To use the SATA CD-ROM device, you must use the IDE emulation mode.

• You use a supported storage system. ESXi 5.5 supports the installation and start-up of these storage systems:
  • SATA drives. SATA drives connected behind the SAS controllers supported or SATA controllers support built-in.
    • LSI1068E (LSISAS3442E)
    • LSI1068 (SAS 5)
    • IBM ServeRAID 8K SAS controller
    • Smart Array P400/256 controller
    • 5.0.1 Dell PERC controller
  • SATA drives. Support SATA edge include:
    • Intel ICH9
    • NVIDIA MCP55
    • ServerWorks HT1000

  Note: ESXi does not support using SATA internal disks local to the host server to create VMFS stores of data that is shared between multiple ESXi hosts.

• You have disks Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) supported for ESXi 5.5 installation and to store virtual machines in VMFS partitions.
• You have dedicated disk SAN Fibre Channel or iSCSI.
• You have USB devices supported for ESXi installation.
• You can install and start ESXi a FCoE LUN using VMware software FCoE adapters and network with FCoE adapters discharge capacity
. See the documentation for storage for more information about installing and initializing ESXi with vSphere FCoE software.

• NEED TO CHANGE MY CONFIGURATION OF RAID 0, RAID 1. PLEASE HELP AS FOR HOW TO DO IT. URGENT!

  Hello!

  I had a glance but quite impossible to find the answers I was hoping to find.  I understand a fair bit about how works RAID and indeed when I ordered my computer, I ordered a RAID 1 configuration, but it arrived as a RAID 0 Configuration. In time, I left and wish later, I do not have, but at the time, I was in the middle of a heavy calendar of study...

  I have a computer processor i7 3 GHz with 8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 RAM.  It's a few years old but has a bit of life left in it, so I would reconfigure if possible.  At present, it is implemented with DISK 0 have 3 partitions - a 118MB OEM partition, a partition RECOVERY from NTFS of 10,88 GB and a 1.8 to NTFS OS (c :)) Partition main, then 1 drive has a main 63 GB NTFS partition.)  It runs on W7.

  Of course, if I just start to change the sizes of disc autour, I lost the operating system and all and may end up with a metal box not able to do anything. so, where can I start and in what order I progress, please to reach a situation of RAID 1?  I have a complete set of diskettes to install W7 and want to update to 10 by Thursday.  I understand that I have to format the drives to break the current RAID configuration and get the good detection of both discs and am fully backed up, but I need to know in what order I am progressing.

  Any help would be welcome.  Looking forward to some responses!

  Burybellringer.

• Initial configuration of RAID HP ENVY accidentally erased, deleted hard disk?

  I was trying to see if I could find an option to change the my new laptop on AHCI SATA controller, but I should have checked more thoroughly online before trying something new in the BIOS.  It seems that these laptops are automatically in AHCI?

  My laptop had a 1 TB SSHD and a 24GB flash hard drive Cache acceleration configured in RAID 0.  With my minimal knowledge of the AHCI, RAID and IDE, I thought that the withdrawal of the RAID configuration would give me a possibility to change the hard drive in AHCI controller.  Without thinking, I "removed" the RAID volume, and I think I have completely erase my new hard drive and the operating system, including the recovery partition.

  When I start up the laptop, I get the error "boot device not found 3f0", and f11 does not work to try to get into the recovery mode.  The hard drive test always passes the two elements.  I ordered at HP USB recovery media earlier, but I don't know if there is anything else I can do?

  I don't know exactly how the acceleration of the Disk Cache, but my main question is why only SSHD would be setup in RAID 0 factory mode, and if there is a good reason, how do I put up again after the reinstallation of the OS from the USB media?

  After screwing my OS, I played in the BIOS to re - setup the RAID0, but I don't know that I've got it right.  I myself remember the size of the band was set to 128 KB, but I have no idea what was the "Capacity (MB)", or should I put it when I create new RAID?

  Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you.

  Ryan

  Hi, Popo:

  I didn't get the rush of shipped recovery media.

  When you order by regular mail, it may take up to 10 days, so unless you're bored to death, so I would just wait until your recovery media is coming tomorrow.

  Yes, you are right.  The file I gave you is a simple vanilla W8 version and there are no programs whatsoever other than that which accompanies the W8.

  The product key in the BIOS of your PC will work with this file and you get the recovery media.

  You can always want to DL this file and make a bootable DVD just as it is for future use.

  After installing W8, you get the upgrade to W8.1 against the Windows store.

  It may take a few hours to appear as a sort of update should run before updating the W8.1 appears in the Windows store.

  You won't have to look for.

  It will be displayed when you click the windows store.

  You will be able to switch to W8.1 with the regular ISO W8 file, or your installation HP factory.

• SSH Configuration

  I'm checking the configuration of SSH on our hosts ESX3.0.3.  I looked at the/etc/ssh/sshd_config file but it seems there may be another file or service, affecting SSH (IE, PermitEmptyPasswords is remmed out, #, but I can't SSH with an account that has no password) or denying the need for some settings in SSH.  This is the case, or I am looking at the wrong SSH configuration file?

• Supermicro onboard Intel and Adaptec RAID configuration unrecognized in ESXi 5.5 U2

  Hi, I have a supermicro X7DAL-E r1.1b motherboard has integrated Intel and Adaptec sata raid controllers. To enable raid controllers, I go into the BIOS and enable the raid configuration for intel or adaptec. I tried two raid controllers and created a configuration raid 5 by going through the bios of each controller. However, when I start to go through the process of installing ESXi 5.5 U2, I see not a logical drive, all I see are hard drives that I thought were configured as a logical drive in raid 5.

  I know that I am using an old motherboard which is not on the HCL, but I just haven't the money to spend on equipment. I really want to make it work if possible. I tried to download ESXi 4 but it is no longer available . I understand I tried to use an older version to see if it contains the necessary drivers for it work and attempt to port these drivers in ESXI 5.5.

  I was wondering if someone actually got this similar problem with supermicro Board and whether a solution or workaround has been found in which ESXi 5 can recognize the raid configuration? If this is impossible, it can't be done, that's what it is. I'll deal with it or put in place.

  Any suggestion would be appreciated.

  Not sure about this 'r1.1b' version, but original X7DAL-E has no onboard hardware raid controller. What he has is i5000 chipset, which offers the raid software-(aka bios-, faux-, etc.). This is not supported by ESXi (for very good reasons). And even if it were, no cache, you would get terrible performance...

• How can I configure a RAID mirror for a HPE-210Y?

  I have two identical hard drives installed, so I'm ready to go. I would like some advice before proceeding. HP is not very good on the posting of this information with the PC service.

  doug25427 wrote: thanks for the reply and the info. The link was in your message. Can you send it again?

  Hello doug25427, the first link is a dead link when I checked it after that I posted it so I had to find another link.

  You can locate the link that I used initially by a Google search for how to create an array of Raid AMD.

  You should see a search with a link result to AsRock. Click on this Google link, and it should show how to set up an array of Raid AMD. It is an Adobe PDF file so you will need Adobe Reader or a way to view a PDF file. The PDF file has 17 pages.

  Although it is an AsRock system, AMD Raid configuration should be the same for any system that uses Raid AMD.

  The current link may also have useful information.

• Updates the performance of HP Array Configuration Utility in ESXI 5?

  Is that what someone has HP Array Configuration Utility to run on ESXI 5?   Of all the post, I see that it worked under ESX but not ESX (i).   This seems to be a footnote which was offered before. Have the Array Configuration Utility to expand the disk on the fly are necessary to our data center. Should we switch to ESX 4 on all hosts.

  Current situation:

  ESXI 5 servers now running many DL380 G5 with Array P400 controllers.

  Hello

  I do not think that the vMW allows the ACU installation at all - how he would talk to the RAID card in local hardware store?

  The workaround is usually a design change. Your 'best practice' typical ESXi installation is performed in a sort of SAN, where such technology is irrelevant.

  Apart from this, you can always vMotion your virtual machines to another machine, then restart a host and boot from the Smartstart CD, where you can run the ACU.

  I certainly would not downgrade to ESX4 - it is like recommending a downgrade to Windows 2000 for the future.

• SSH and Syslog in ESXi 5

  Hello

  I enabled the syslog collector on my host ESXi 5.

  When I then enable SSH host returns the following error:

  The host of "Hostname:51" has become inaccessible. Remotelogging to this host has stopped.

  Can these two not work in tandem together?

  Thank you

  Peter.

  Simply ignore this is an informational message indicating that the host ssh has been activated for the administrator

  This message is from (i) ESX 4.X

  If you want to disable, you must stop the services on esxi 4.x

  for esxi 5 you can surprise these alerts

  1. Select the ESXi host in the inventory.
  2. Click the Configuration tab.
  3. Under the software, click Advanced settings.
  4. Click UserVars.
  5. Change the value of UserVars.SuppressShellWarning to 1.

• SSH from MAC to ESXi

  I'm sshing from my MAC to an ESXi box using the native terminal via the "ssh username@hostname" command. I can log in and run a few commands with no problems, but when I run ESXTOP, he does ' t having display pretty with columns as u would see on mastic or other clinet... trying to understand what could cause this... do you know if there are parameters that I can play with on my terminal... I know esxtop works fine if I use windows and PuTTY...

  See the screenshot for my results esxtop from my Mac.

  xterm xterm-color is the emulation of terminal used to display lines and columns on your screen.  So when you connect from your client to your esxi host, the client indicates what encapsulation type to use.  If the server (in this case esxi), does not have the mode you want, you get what you see, where the rows and columns don't match with the screen you use.

  xterm is the default / standard emulator of terminal for x window systems and is fairly widely used.

  xterm-color is more modern for use with modern servers where you get the color highlighting added, that esxi is not for you.

  Hope that makes sense.

• HP Pavilion s5570t desktop computer: single SATA hard drive configured as RAID in BIOS

  Our small computer lab has two offices of Pavilion Slimline s5570t that we have recently upgraded to Windows 10. I noticed that in the configuration of the BIOS for the SATA hard drive, it is defined as RAID. I don't know why. The thing that brought this to my attention, is that the software Intel Rapid storage technology constantly shows about 25% CPU use and there high usage of the disk when computers start first which makes them unusable until the software installs.

  My question is can I change the setting of the BIOS SATA AHCI with no problems and that will solve the problem? The Intel rapid storage technology software version is v9.5.7.1002. It is obviously old and I could update, but I wonder if the real issue is the BIOS setting.

  Thank you

  JohnD

  Thank you for the additional information.

  I'm not sure it tells you, but I changed these settings without having to reinstall the operating system.  I suppose it could be correct.
