Stop reboot request when fast vMotioning to a host with a different processor

• VMotion between 2 Hosts with different processors

  Hallo,

  I have a server in my homelab I use for studies of VMsphere and I want to get a second machine to test advanced features such as HA, Vmotion etc.

  My first server has a map of X9SCM-9 with processor Xeon E3-1230V2 (Ivy Bridge). I am currently running ESX 5.0 U2 on it.

  I was counting on obtaining of material quality for the second host consumers because I don't want to spend a lot on it, so I thought that I need any CPU generation Ivy Bridge.

  I tested today with a second machine with a Pentium G2020 Ivy Bridge, but when I try to Vmotion he says "the virtual machine requires physical features that are not available or disabled on the host... ».

  So I figure there must be a difference in architecture regardless of the CPU beeing an Ivy Bridge CPU.

  When I try to activate CVS it just me are going to the 'Nehalem' Version so my virtual machines running on host 1 would not be able to use all the features of the CPU since the Xeon.

  So the question boils down to: what is the processor less which offer compatibility VCA L5?

  Or is there something else to consider in VMotion between two hosts with different processors?

  I got a shared storage, etc. of the same network configuration.

  Thank you

  Benjamin

  Hi Benjamin,

  For compatibility VCA L5 want to look at one of the following models, Intel CPU:

  • Ivy Bridge: Series E3-1200-v2
  • HASWELL

  I would recommend mental health that before rushing and a CPU purchase, check if a cheaper option would be, as Jon mentions in suppresss some fo the CPU compatibility checks so obviously, this is not desirable in a production environment, and must be applied in your study of VMware Lab to the home address.

  Hope this helps,

• vMotion between two hosts with different version?

  
  Hello

  Can I vMotion VM between two hosts with different version? For example, a virtual machine of esxi 6.0 5.5 esxi and esxi esxi 6.0 5.5 vMotion.

  Thank you.

  Yes, it will avoid you to move.

• Having a problem with vmotion between two hosts with processors Intel E5640

  Hi all.

  We organize a group of 14 guests, each with ESX 4.0, build 261974 installed.

  They are managed through vCenter 4.0.0 and construction 258672, vSphere client 4.0.0 builf 258672.

  The hosts are blades from IBM, in a BladecenterH.

  Some of the blades are older model HS21 (type 7995) with processors Intel Xeon E5440.

  The rest of the blades are more recent model HS22V (type 7871) with processors Intel Xeon E5640.

  We are currently replacing old HS21 blades with more the HS22 blades, so we just bought 7 HS22s, all with the same Intel E5640 processors located in the blades currently in service. One of the things that this transition will happen for us is allowing us to have the same processor type in all of our blades and remove vMotion compatibility problems we had in the past. We were unable to turn on CVS, because we would have had to shut down a cluster of virtual machines on the latest hosts and could not take this kind of failure. We will turn VCA after that.

  Here's the question:

  We just installed the first new knives, and when turn on us and try to vMotion VMs to it, it fails. He gives us the error standard vMotion on CPU register incompatibilities, and that we should read kb1993. The thing is, they all have the same processor. Same identifier type, same everything, yet for some reason vCenter is convinced they are incompatible. We checked things in BIOS, and they are all the same.

  We are ideas, other than the new knives have a later rev BIOS than the old ones.

  Any thoughts?

  Thank you!

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
  Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
  older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
  get new manually if you wish.

  If you haven't tried the "last known good configuration" among the Advanced startup options then do that first.  If this does not help, you must run the System File Checker to search for possible system problems.  Then, you must run the upgrade from the system tool and then see if you are able to run the SP2 update.   Mike - Engineer Support Microsoft Answers

• You must stop your request before the engine may stop

  I have an integrated application that uses LV DSC 6.0.2. The application starts and stops the engine tag programmatically. The application works fine, but on some machines, I'll get continuously the next dialog box when I try to stop the engine of the tag:

  "You must stop your request before the engine may stop"

  It's strange, because it only happens on some machines (it seems that it can occur on computers with ONLY of DSC Run-Time installed, not the full dev system. DSC LV).

  The dialog seems to refer to the application of 'control' which tries to stop the engine... it isn't telling me that my devices servers need to be stopped.

  This dialog box does not seem logical, I should be able
  to build an application that can start and stop the engine... and why I get this dialog on some machines but not on others?

  John Paul,

  There are two points that we should ask ourselves:
  1: you can have different loops while in your application where you read/write to and from the engine of the tag with the read/write Tag.vi. These screws has a stop of production which must be wired first the while loop. If you have cases where you do not connect this output to your time stop loop you could access the engine while you want to stop the engine in another loop with the Shutdown.vi engine. -> Make sure you have all drivers of DSC to access loops has stopped before you turn off the engine.

  2nd: I guess he was once an issue of race with the DSC engine condition and how it access to shared memory with the read/write Tag.vi. But this condtion of race must be agreed with the version of LabVIEW DSC
  6.1 or with other fixes for LabVIEW DSC 6.0.2. You can download patches (in this case, particularly the BVRTDatabase.dll) driver update page & of NOR: www.ni.com/support/ > Option 3, drivers and updates > Search drivers and updates > type 'LabVIEW DSC' > choose LabVIEW Datalogging and Supervisory Control 6.0.2 fixes.
  You must apply the patches of this as well on your DSC 6.0.2 Run Time System!

  I hope that one of the help of two suggestions to solve your problem.

• What is the best way to inform your client of VCentere when a vmotion event has occurred?

  For example, suppose you want to get ntofied when a vmotion event has occurred on the

  VCenter. You need the info on what got VM move to the place where.

  But it makes no sense to keep voting history of VCenter events. So, I guess you

  use the alarm mechanism. If this is the case then you are just left with the alarm runninng

  a script that somehow informed the client of VC occurred a vmotion. Now the question is what

  How is the best way to inform the customer of VC?

  So the process is the VCenter client calls the VSphere SDK API via web services to create/set the alarm.

  The alarm call a script, the script calls something to warn the client of VC.

  The script uses sockets / Messages /? or is it and most easy way?  What did other people?

  Again, the alarm is once configured on the server vCenter Server and this can be done by using the Client vSphere or programmaticlaly using the vSphere API. The action of the alarm go can be anything and who is also stored and executed on the server vCenter Server. If you want the action to send an HTTP request, you can, as long as the 'scenario' can be run on the server vCenter Server. It's the size of the default actions that have been implemented with an alarm (alarm in vCenter system as event, SNMP trap, e-mail or run local script to vCenter Server)

  If you want to develop a thin client that watches for a change or a particular property, you'll want to take a look at the collector of property if you have not already in the vSphere Programming Guide - http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-50/topic/com.vmware.ICbase/PDF/vsdk_prog_guide.pdf in collaboration with collector property, you'll want to take advantage of "Views" which is what the vSphere Client uses to display the vSphere infrastructure inventory and updates only the customer when something changes or automatically when a view is modified (for example, cluster/host to view vm/model). You can still use the method of the alarm, but relying on the collector of property/views, will give you a solid client without having to query the system.

  I would recommend that you take a look at these two presentation by one of our engineers on the manifold of the property http://vimeo.com/16222275 and http://vimeo.com/16215337 alarms & events

• How to stop ProgressEvent.Progress when bytesLoaded, bytesTotal

  I want to stop ProgressEvent.Progress and two seconds to determine if the modem Internet connection.  Is there a way to stop ProgressEvent.Progress when bytesLoaded, bytesTotal?  Right now, the event continues until the entire *.jpg file is loaded and/or creates a fatal error, zipper.  Here is the code I use:

• eMac stops almost immediately when starting after replacing HARD drive

  Hey all!

  I need to explain a bit for this one, so please bear with me. Thank you.

  Long story short, I've had a few eMacs for quite a while now and I recently found a use for them. I created a (it is running 10.4 with 1 GB of RAM and a > G4 processor at 1 GHz, can't remember) and used it for a while before randomly power loss and refused to stay on for more than a few minutes. I tried to replace the PMU battery with one of the other Mac and pressing the reset button, which leads to stop showing signs of life whatsoever (even after the replacement of the original battery).

  Thinking I had it bricked, I got out one of the other Mac with a plan to give the disk of death. This new Mac running 10.5, perfect with another > G4 processor at 1 GHz (but only 768 MB of RAM this time). The only quirk I noticed is the TRC took abnormally long to warm up, black time with only red but gradually more luminous and no longer red colors of departure. It was about normal 5 minutes after that OSX end of initialization. In any case, I went to swap out hard drives and put everything to the top, to see that yet again, this new Mac does not work!

  If it has been awhile since the last attempt to start the CRT will do its usual "bong" noise before machine clicks (sorta like a relay of power off) and nothing else happens. If I try again, the CRT is silent (no doubt he is already warm from the last attempt to start?) and you can hear two clicks - one that looks like something to turn it on, then turn it off even on front. These clicks are different lengths apart - usually, this is only a few seconds, but sometimes longer. There was a few times where the fans have started between clicks and I've even heard the startup chime on an attempt (which got me excited - but no, it clicked and distributed repressed). The CRT does not seem to do anything other than bonging from time to time (but it can turn on - I can't say because of the problem of the warm-up that I mentioned earlier).

  I would really like to be able to resurrect this old Mac once again - I have the vague feeling that I broke it when replacing the HARD drive. I'm pretty sure that I have not forgotten all the internal cables, and I tried not to touch anything other than the HARD drive and the enclosure of the logic board (ended up having to remove the blower housing too, however). Two Macs are model A1002 and both have serial numbers in the YM412xxxxxx - YM520xxxxxx range (eligible for repair program?). I don't know if they were actually taken repair back in the day.

  In any case, I hope you guys can help out me! Thanks in advance!

  (P.S the first eMac is well beyond repair. I have also a third one - it is better to go by replacing the HARD drive again? It is worth noting that the PMU battery has been sitting on my desk for a while now. "It was probably flat anyway).

  The HARD drive would be the problem? It seems that it is.

  See if you can just unplug the data cable from HARD drive and try to hold down the alt or option to the startup/power.

• Stop the engine when detects digital impulses of the reflective light sensor

  Hello

  I am doing my school project and I managed to make the deepening of the engine via digital port of the USB-6008 by setting the Boolean value of output in a while loop with use cases, but now I faced a problem because I have to use it with a reflective sensor and stop the engine when he feels a digital pulse. The sensor is configured as a counter using PFI0 on the USB-6008 with a circuit that will send in a digital pulse for data acquisition.

  How to stop the engine when the detector reflecting is blocked, and then start the deepening again when it is not blocked

  Thank you

  The top spot is always implemented as a counter.  You must change the DAQmx create channel as a digital input and the DAQmx interpreted as a Boolean variable digital 1 channel 1 sample.
