Standard network config switch

I'm just up an environment VSphere 5 and running for the first time.  It is the way I have the network currently installation.  I was wondering if I should split the network management and VMotion on in separate vSwitches.  Management and VMotion are configured to each use one of the physical NETWORK adapter while the VM network is sharing the other two physical NIC resources I use to implement illustrates the configuration of the network both directions, but does not specify which is the best option.  Thanks in advance for any help!

I think it's important that you choose a different range of IP subnet for the other than the management network vMotion. Your configuration now I believe that you will not use the vMotion VMkernel at all, only the other interface management and vMotion.

  • Standard network naming

    [I have three hosts \[vm01, vm02, vm03\] in a single cluster \[CL01\]. On each host, I have a virtual switch with two standard networks - one for mgmt and a single port group. On dv01, I named these VM01Network and VM01MgmtNetwork. VM02 and 03, I simply changed the numbers in the names to match. Therefore, each host has two networks and the cluster has three networks port group... VM01Network VM02Network and VM03Network - in other words, each host has a different virtual network name...

    Is this properly configured? I intend using FT and HA. Do I need all these names are the same? Is what makes them different better? TO be clear, if you look at a map of the cluster you see three unconnected cards.

    The names MUST be the same for vMotion (and I guess) FT to work.  This is because the name is what the NETWORK card in the VM properties is related to.  When the virtual machine is moving to a different host, he finds the correct port group by matching the name.

  • Virtual network config

    How set up my network LM4 using a closed network and not change the IP address of the virtual machine?

    The physical network config is pretty simple, and I can create a fence where the virtual machine gets a new IP address of the static pool, but I can't work on the creation of a fence without impacting on IP of the virtual machine.

    This should be a common configuration, but it seems to me to miss something.

    You can configure the VM with static IP address.

  • Migrate standard network switch to VDS

    Hello

    I intend to migrate little my clusters that are running in a standard switch to DVS. Need help to automate this process.

    My scenario is:

    In a 15cluster environment are present 5 are already running in DVS
    but 10 clusters are still a standard switch so I need to migrate the
    already existing DVSwitch.

    By taking a cluster of 10node as an example.
    (1) mgmt and vmkernel are on a vswitch (ex: vswitch 0)
    [vswitch 0 - connected with 2 vmincs]

    (2) virtual machine in a vswitch portgroup (Ex: vswitch 1)
    [vswitch 1 - connected with 2 vmincs]

    On all groups, we need to migrate only machine virtual portgroup
    or vmnetwork (ex: vswitch 1) to off-network vmkernel mgmt DVs.
    My plan:
    First add all cluster hosts to DVswitch
    Remove all a redundant vmnic (ex: vmnic3) connected to the machine virtual portgroup. (Ex: vswitch) 1 and adds it to DVswitch.
    Now migrate all virtual machines connected to a standard switch to dvs. (Here I hit)
    Is it possible if VLAN 10 (standard switch) then consists of 5 virtual machines
    check the VLAN 10 DVS and portgroup network set to 10 VLAN adapter on the
    SMV (I mean can we compare VLAN ID on VSS and VDS and inspiring than us)
    need to migrate virtual machines to a DVS.)

    As below:

    VLAN_58_VDS.JPG

    VLAN_58_VSSD.JPG
    If it works correctly then you have to check the State of all virtual machines (ignore power VM off) ping
    If ok then proceed to map the second network card (ex: vmnic4) VSS for VDS.

    Use the Script:

    # ESXi hosts to migrate from VSS to VDS
    $vmhost_array = @("host1","host2")
    # Adding Hosts to existing VDswitch
    $vds = Get-VDSwitch -Name "SM_UAT"
    foreach ($vmhost in $vmhost_array) {
    # Add ESXi host to VDS
    Write-Host "Adding" $vmhost "to" $vds_name
    $vds | Add-VDSwitchVMHost -VMHost $vmhost | Out-Null
    # Migrate pNICs to VDS
    Write-Host "Adding vmnic2 to" $vds
    $vmhostNetworkAdapter = Get-VMHost $vmhost |Get-VirtualSwitch -Name "vswitch1" |select -ExpandProperty Nic |select -First 1

    }
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    


    Maybe try like this

    # ESXi hosts to migrate VSS to VDS

    $vmhost_array = get-VMHost-name 10.50.37.31

    # get existing VDswitch

    $vds = get-VDSwitch-name "Pre-production".

    {

    # Add ESXi hosts service VDS

  • standard of distributed switch migration oddities

    I have recently updated our laboratory to vsphere 5 and then switches distributed, after the migration of VM networks I noticed two machines still show an idle connection to the old standard switch this switch and portgroup be deleted on all host servers:

    switch.jpg

    I tried to remove the network card and it time on the removing of the inventory, virtual machine and re-adding it... any ideas on how to get rid of this?

    Usually, it shows if the virtual machine has a snapshot, which was connected to the Group of 'old' port

The problem is I onlyy a uplink public and I can't add the physical NIC as the standard switch and distributed virtual switch. IAM looking for a way to migrate the portgroup & physical uplink NIC in one step. Someone knows how to do this without adding a second NIC uplink? Please keep in mind that my vCenter is a virtual machine on this machine.

  • Virtual network and switch Option grayed out?

    I have two hosts on my environment, clustered. Web client (using Vsphere 5.5), I choose a host-> manage-> virtual switches, but all the options are greyed out (add host network, refresh the network hosts, manage physical network cards, etc.). I go to another host and choose the same thing, and these options are available. I don't know why this is happening? I have googled around, but can't find anything useful.

    You can do it in vSphere Client Host? Sometimes the Web client takes forever to load the icons change to the virtual switches.

    Maybe you should give the vCenter, a little more RAM and the Java process Web client as well.

  • New to VM, network config question

    I have a question with networking on a virtual machine host. IM pretty new MV so forgive me if this is a stupid question or if its in the wrong forum.

    I have a single host VM with ESXi 5 turn several Win2008 server. The physical network switch is a 48-Port 10/100 but a 2 gigabit ports. The physical host has 4 gigabit NIC. Is it better to launch 4 NICs to 100 MB/s or two Gigabit? What happened to run 2 network cards in each (2 gigabytes) and 2 in 100? How do I configure?

    Im just trying to see what options are avilable for me with this and what is the preferred configuration.

    Thank you!

    So you can plug them into the ports of 1 GB as if you don't need all the traffic flowing on routes rising 1 GB and host to the same new host which will be at least 1 GB speed.

    Your army to the workstation traffic will flow to 100 MB max.

    Personally, I would look to pick up a new switch if budgets permit.  You can get a switch 48-Port gigabit for £180 all about, or if you do not use the 48-port you can get a smaller much cheaper.

    Kind regards

  • vNetwork Standard Configuration of switch

    Hello

    We have 3 guests ESXi 5.0.

    I configured the network as below that we have only 4 NICs per host;

    All the IPS below are in a VLAN. And what a vlan is configured on a physical switch.

    ESXi 5.0

    vSwitch0

    The VM network

    Networking - same vlan ip

    VMkernel_vMotion - same vlan ip

    2 NICs (active/active)

    vSwitch1

    VMkernal_iSCSI - same ip vlan (our IP storage is a different subnet, but it can communicate with the ip subnet of vlan.) This is when the creation of this port, there is no option to 'check' designed to 'storage', then how iSCSI traffic will pass through this port ONLY?

    2 NICs (active/active)

    I want to know if this configuration is ok?

    OR

    Suggest me a better option than this.

    Thank you

    Mihir

    Easy answer. You don't assign it a gateway to VMkernel iSCSI ports. If you use IP addresses in the same subnet as the storage system, you don't need a gateway. VMware does not support iSCSI traffic routed anyway.

    Now that you have found a VLAN / subnet dedicated to iSCSI traffic, I suggest you research a little more, maybe you are lucky enough to find a dedicated VLAN / subnet for vMotion too.

  • Still no network config tool for Linux?

    It doesn't seem to be a Player 3.1 + to Linux network configuration tool.  I've seen several threads referencing this need (or rather than the tool is now missing but once existed).  The last comment (question) on this subject was in May 2010.

    I realize that player account is free, so I don't expect VMware's priority attention; However, if it is not resolved, I, like others, go out and examine options not VMware for virtualization in Linux.  But since the construction of a very effective, data center performance on ESX a few years ago, I was a fan of VMware products.

    Why are there no network - vmware-config.pl more?

    Thank you very much!

    Michael

    Do not know why the vmnetcfg tool has been removed in VMplayer 3

    For now, you can use this nasty workaround:

    Uninstall vmplayer

    Download the last workstation - full version

    Install it

    run without license

    This may block the virtual machines running via the vmware.exe - GUI, but it will allow the use of vmplayer

    and this time, the tools, the required as vmnetcfg and vdiskmanager module are installed and working

    Please can you advise how can I do to configure the domain controller to act as a router? If you see the config network/IP for the Vista computer, you can see that it already uses the DC Team LAN (10.44.1.1) as the default gateway but this alone does not seem to work

    You must install the 'Routing and RAS"on the domain controller (which is a component of Windows Server software) and configure it as a router... I'll check for a link on how to do it. Install the software in the meantime...

    I configured by DNS on the domain controller to transmit to my default gateway for anything he cannot solve, this is going to 192.168.1.1

    Good! This is necessary for DNS queries to resolve. As the DNS server works as a DNS proxy service you don't need a router for DNS (but for the rest).

  • Segments of network &amp; virtual switches

    Hello. I have a question on the Association of the physical NIC ports to a virtual switch.                                                                                I have two network segments. The first has a group of VLAN ID. The second has a network isolated from the VLAN ID to evoke. Can I combine the physical NETWORK adapter ports that are connected by physical switches on the two network segments, on the same virtual switch defined in VMware ESX 3.5 / vSphere? I guess I'd better associate the two network segments with two virtual switches, but I'd like to hear from you.

    Thanks in advance for your help

    If you cannot physically route between the two segments then you can create exchanges on a vswitch and have dedicated NICs for each group of ports and plug the network adapters in the relevant physical switches that connect to network segments or if total isolation is necessary, then create a separate vswitch and do the same thing...
